As Zhao Letian stormed in, the two who were in battle also immediately turned their faces with a cautious look.
"Is that you, Zhao Zilong? Quick, help this young master kill this man!"
One of them, holding a longsword and clad in a white robe, felt a surge of joy upon seeing Zhao Letian.
Zhao Letian's brow slightly furrowed as he looked impassively at the man.
This person was clearly from the Sky Dome Dynasty.
By right, he and this person belonged to the same coalition and should have assisted each other within the Imperial Secret Realm.
However, this man's tone gave off an air of superiority and condescension, as though he was commanding him, which greatly displeased Zhao Letian and naturally, he wouldn't lift a finger to help. Updates are released by novel※fire.net
The other opponent, wielding a spear and donned in armor, turned out to be a powerhouse from the Golden Knight Dynasty.
Upon learning that Zhao Letian and that man in the white robe were both from the Sky Dome Dynasty, the Golden Knight Dynasty warrior knew he stood no chance and coldly snorted, feinted with his spear, and immediately turned to leave.
"Quick, stop him, you imbecile, what are you waiting for?"
Seeing the other man attempting to flee, the white-robed man from the Sky Dome Dynasty, after grabbing the Calming God Lamp, immediately chased after him and coldly rebuked Zhao Letian.
Zhao Letian's brows furrowed and he casually released a sword qi, piercing directly through the white-robed man's Qi Sea.
"You, how dare you cripple this young master's cultivation?"
The white-robed man thudded to the ground, looking at Zhao Letian with a mix of shock and rage, his eyes filled with despair.
Within this Imperial Secret Realm, to be crippled meant waiting for death.
"Jiang Hua, the fifteenth ranked genius of the Sky Dome Dynasty, your strength isn't much stronger than Yu Kun's. Who gave you the confidence to act so presumptuously in front of me?"
Zhao Letian moved emotionlessly toward him, stepping on Jiang Hua's head, casually picking up the Calming God Lamp and spoke indifferently without a trace of sentiment.
Hearing this, Jiang Hua shuddered in fear, suddenly realizing the folly of his grave mistake.
Being a noble scion of the Sky Dome Imperial City, he had always felt superior, looking down on commoners even within the Imperial City, let alone someone like Zhao Letian, a country bumpkin hailing from a vassal state.
He presumed that Zhao Letian, as someone from a vassal state, ought to serve him obediently like a lowly servant.
Within his own family, not to mention a True Martial Realm ant like Zhao Letian, even Sect Martial Realm powerhouses could only serve like dogs, subject to his whims and insults.
But what he hadn't realized was that Zhao Letian could not care less about how noble his stature was.
In this Imperial Secret Realm, with lesser strength than Zhao Letian and still daring to be insolent in front of him, he was simply seeking his own death.
After taking the Calming God Lamp, Zhao Letian unapologetically took all of Jiang Hua's belongings and, with a flash, immediately set off to search for treasures elsewhere, leaving only the despondent Jiang Hua behind, collapsed on the ground like a lump of mud, full of regrets.
The City Lord Mansion of Divine Wind City was massive, with many palaces. The twenty or so Martial Artists within were as if in the vast ocean, difficult to search thoroughly in a short amount of time. Moreover, besides the initial round of combat, it was quite rare for these warriors to encounter each other for a long time thereafter.
However, the treasures in these palaces are not as abundant as people imagined, and most of the treasures are incomplete or damaged. Rare and intact special treasures like the Calming God Lamp are extremely scarce.
But even so, the enthusiasts' spirits remain very high because even those fragmented items are relics passed down from Ancient Times, priceless and immensely precious in the outside world.
"Eh? What's this? Proving Rock?"
After some searching, Zhao Letian came upon a courtyard. Looking around, there was a huge rock towering over a hundred feet tall with "Proving Rock" inscribed in large characters, bold and powerful, embodying an unfathomably profound Martial Arts Realm.
What attracted Zhao Letian the most, however, were not the three large characters but rather the various marks of swords, signs of fists and palm seals, and martial techniques etched onto the giant rock. Some of these techniques seemed incredibly powerful, far beyond what a practitioner of the True Martial Realm could unleash.
These martial techniques were imbued with different understandings of the Martial Arts Realm. Comprehending their essences could help improve one's own martial arts level.
Thus, Zhao Letian stood still under the Proving Rock, gazing upward at the different techniques, starting to comprehend them with full concentration.
Afterward, while other Martial Artists also discovered this place, no one wished to stop; they were all busy scavenging for treasures in the palaces.
"Proving Rock? Such a thing actually exists, how interesting."
Quite some time later, a young man with a build like a bull walked in. He looked up at the towering Proving Rock, grinned, and like Zhao Letian, stood underneath it to earnestly comprehend the martial techniques.
Zhao Letian naturally noticed the burly young man beside him and recognized him at a glance. The man was from the Haiya Dynasty, named Shi Tao, with tremendous strength comparable to the likes of Nalan Yun, second only to invincible fighters.
However, since the other party did not disturb him, he naturally did not mind allowing the other to remain there.
"Everyone, get out! This place is mine now!"
Yet, not long after the burly newcomer had arrived, an extremely domineering voice suddenly descended from above the Proving Rock.
Zhao Letian and the burly man frowned simultaneously and looked up.
They saw a cold young man clad in golden armor, holding a long spear, standing proudly on top of Proving Rock.
"Someone from the Golden Knight Dynasty!"
"It's Chen Feng, the invincible warrior from the Golden Knight Dynasty!"
Having seen the face of that person clearly, Zhao Letian and the burly youth beside him both revealed a solemn expression.
"Knowing it's me, get lost already!"
Chen Feng, standing on the Proving Rock, looked down at Zhao Letian and the other with arrogance, completely disregarding their presence.
"Hmph, Chen Feng, among the invincible warriors, you're just at the bottom, and you think you can scare me off with just one sentence? Are you dreaming?"
Before Zhao Letian could speak, Shi Tao at his side couldn't help but scoff, unfurling a powerful aura, and spoke disdainfully.
"Fine, since you're clueless about life and death, I'll fulfill your wishes!"
A cold murderous intent flashed in Chen Feng's eyes, and immediately he wielded his spear and soared down, attacking Shi Tao straight on.
"Hmph, scared of you?"
Shi Tao snorted coldly, spirit light flashing in his hand as he pulled out a massive hammer and smashed it down hard.
A loud blast sounded, and the raw power of True Yuan burst forth, forcing both fighters to retreat.
Shi Tao, pushed back a good dozen yards, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth,
