The four felt a momentary daze, and the next instant, they experienced a solid sense of grounding.
Looking around, they found themselves in a forest shrouded in mist, the aura of Witch Power thick in the air.
"I'll use Mental Strength to probe the situation first," Wei Chen said, releasing his Mental Strength, which spread out over a considerable distance.
Within Wei Chen's Sea of Consciousness, the entire secret realm appeared before him like a clear Satellite map.
"It's temporarily safe, but at the very center of this secret realm, there's a Witch Beast with an incredibly strong presence. Even combined, the four of us would be instantly killed by that Witch Beast," Wei Chen said, his expression grave. He "saw" deep within the secret realm, a Witch Beast lounging lazily on a stone.
This Witch Beast resembled a cunning creature, part tiger, part leopard, and part fox, dragging a long Fox Tail behind it, exuding an overwhelming aura.
Even with his eyes closed in sleep, Wei Chen could sense that this Witch Beast was formidable; its presence was truly astonishing.
"Based on its aura alone, that thing is even stronger than the Right Sage's guard, the Golden Wolf!" Wei Chen thought to himself in shock. "What luck! Just wandering into a small forest and encountering such a high-level Witch Beast. I must be incredibly fortunate!"
Wei Chen glanced over Dugu and the Shaohuang God King and Ying Qin Supreme Deity before hesitatingly saying, "I've checked with my Mental Strength; this area is very ordinary. Aside from that Witch Beast at the center and the peculiar large stone beneath it, everything else is quite mundane—nothing special."
After a pause, he continued, "You all think it over. I don't believe we'll gain anything worthwhile. That Witch Beast is not something we can contend with. If we provoke it, it would just be throwing our lives away."
The three fell silent for a moment. Ying Qin Supreme Deity looked at Wei Chen and said, "Master, you should make the decision here. I’ll follow your lead; whatever you say goes."
"I feel the same way. Do as you see fit," Shaohuang God King nodded slightly in agreement with Ying Qin Supreme Deity's opinion. They all knew that Wei Chen was sharp-minded and had strong Mental Strength; decisions made by him typically turned out well.
With both of them expressing their stance, Dugu could only shrug helplessly and say, "Since you've all decided, I have nothing more to add. You decide."
Wei Chen smiled and said, "Alright then, let's go take a look. With Ying Qin Supreme Deity here, if things look bad, we’ll leave immediately without delay."
"Sounds good; I'll follow your lead."
The three followed Wei Chen's footsteps as they slowly made their way toward the center of the secret realm.
After walking for several miles and passing through a thicket area, they finally entered the dense forest region.
"Master, why do I feel something is off here? This thick fog seems toxic," as soon as they entered the dense forest, a heavy mist enveloped them.
Wei Chen looked at Ying Qin Supreme Deity and replied calmly, "It is indeed toxic and has some hallucinogenic effects, but it shouldn't affect us. Our Mental Strength is quite strong."
Wei Chen had already known that the mist in this secret realm was poisonous, but since he felt it wouldn't have much effect on them, he chose not to mention it.
"Can we fly over it?" Ying Qin Supreme Deity asked again.
Wei Chen replied decisively, "No, the spatial currents here are very chaotic. Walking close to the ground is the safest option."
"What are spatial currents?" Dugu inquired.
Wei Chen explained, "It's a type of spatial turbulence, indicating that this secret realm is very unstable. If we're not careful, we could be sucked into another space, making it nearly impossible to get back."
Upon hearing this, Dugu, Shaohou, and Ying Qin Supreme Deity all shivered and immediately became cautious, no longer daring to think about speeding through.
Being caught in spatial turbulence and ending up in another secret realm would lead to even more chaos, making it nearly impossible to return; they would be adrift in the time-space turbulence forever. They would rather face the Beast King of the Witch Beast than confront that kind of waiting-for-death time-space turbulence.
As they proceeded without incident, Wei Chen had already used his Mental Strength to scan the area. Besides the Witch Beast, there were no other dangers in this secret realm.
After several hours, the four of them quietly approached the area where the Witch Beast resided.
The dense forest faded away to reveal a circular clearing with a diameter of three to four hundred meters. In the center of the clearing, on a large stone, a Cunning Beast lay lazily, seemingly unaware of Wei Chen and his companions' arrival.
Ying Qin Supreme Deity tightly gripped the Kunlun Mirror, ready to flee at any moment.
Shaohou and Dugu held their breath and focused intently, not daring to let their guard down.
Only Wei Chen remained calm. He turned to the three and said, "You stay here; I'll go pay a visit to that Witch Beast."
"Master, please don't go alone!" Ying Qin Supreme Deity's face showed concern.
Wei Chen smiled and said, "It's fine. With the strength of that Witch Beast senior, if it didn't want us to come here, we wouldn't have made it this far."
As he spoke, Wei Chen stepped forward alone, slowly approaching the Cunning Beast. He bowed deeply and said, "I pay my respects to you, senior. This is my first time here, and I am unfamiliar with your customs. If I have offended you in any way, I hope for your forgiveness."
The Cunning Beast lifted its head and glanced at Wei Chen with a disinterested look, opening its mouth to let out a bored laugh.
Not receiving a response, Wei Chen felt a bit surprised. "Could it be that it doesn't understand?"
"I pay my respects to you, senior. This is my first time here, and I am unfamiliar with your customs. If I have offended you in any way, I hope for your forgiveness," Wei Chen transmitted mentally.
The Cunning Beast raised its head again, opening its slightly squinted eyes to scrutinize Wei Chen for a moment. A voice echoed in Wei Chen's Sea of Consciousness: "What are you kids doing here? If I hadn't seen that you aren't from the Witch Clan, I would have already taken care of you."
"Senior, we accidentally discovered the Illusion Tree and naturally wanted to come in and take a look. If we have offended you, please punish us," Wei Chen respectfully transmitted.
As the saying goes, one should not strike a smiling face. With such a good attitude from Wei Chen, the Cunning Beast had no anger left to express. "Fine. There’s nothing of value here anyway. You can come if you want; just don’t think about my mattress."
The so-called mattress of the Cunning Beast was the large stone beneath it.
That large stone constantly emitted Witch Power. The dense Witch Power in this secret realm was largely due to that stone.
"Senior, we won't be thinking about your large stone; you can rest assured on that," Wei Chen promised while patting his chest.
The Cunning Beast stood up and glanced at Dugu and the others in the distance before transmitting to Wei Chen: "You four are quite strange. You all appeared here together, yet your auras are completely different. Especially that kid—his soul must have been reincarnated not long ago."
"Senior, your perception is extraordinary; you've guessed correctly. Among us four, three are from other worlds, and one is indeed a reincarnated soul," Wei Chen said as he gave a thumbs-up to the Cunning Beast. Showing respect to strong individuals would never be a bad thing.
"Kid, take my advice and leave quickly. The spatial turbulence here is severe; if you're not careful, it could lead to your demise. Moreover, there’s nothing here that you seek," the Cunning Beast advised through mental transmission.
Wei Chen nodded and replied, "Alright then, I will take my leave."
He clasped his fists in respect to the Cunning Beast and turned back to join Dugu and the others.
"How did it go?" Ying Qin Supreme Deity asked eagerly as he looked on.
Divine King and Dugu also wanted to ask but felt too shy to speak up; only Ying Qin Supreme Deity was proactive about such matters every time.
"Wei Chen said, 'That Witch Beast is incredibly strong. It can see through our origins at a glance. Being here, we won't gain anything at all.'"
Shaohuang God King nodded and replied, "Then let's leave this cursed place. It feels very ominous here, and if we can get out early, it's best to do so."
Upon hearing this, Dugu frowned and asked, "Is it another case of not being able to gain anything?"
"Wei Chen, one shouldn't be too greedy. If you want to give it a try, go ahead; I won't stop you. But that Cunning Beast's strength is such that even all of us combined wouldn't last a second against it," Wei Chen said calmly.
Dugu felt helpless; there was nothing he could do at this point but follow Wei Chen's advice.
At that moment, Ying Qin Supreme Deity spoke up, "Master, I have completely grasped the spatial coordinates outside. If there's danger, I can guarantee that I can get us out safely in an instant."
It seemed that Ying Qin Supreme Deity was unwilling to return empty-handed.
Among the four, the one with the strongest desire to prove himself was indeed Ying Qin Supreme Deity. He had finally emerged from Wei Chen's True God World and wanted to showcase his abilities in front of everyone; this was only natural.
But the question remained: Was the perilous domain of the Cunning Beast really that simple?
Wei Chen shook his head and said, "Don't think it's that easy. The strength of that Cunning Beast is comparable to the Golden Wolf under Right Sage. If it wants to harm us, honestly, we have no hope at all. The Kunlun Mirror is marvelous, but your strength isn't sufficient yet."
As he spoke, Wei Chen looked deeply at Ying Qin Supreme Deity and said softly, "Trust me; we will die here."
Since Wei Chen had said so, there was nothing more to discuss.
The four began their journey back along the same path. Wei Chen maintained a calm and steady demeanor while the other three each harbored their own feelings of discontent. Not everyone could be as composed as Wei Chen when leaving an opportunity behind.
After walking for a short while, suddenly a voice entered Wei Chen's Sea of Consciousness: "Kid, wait a moment."
"Senior, do you have any instructions?" Wei Chen asked inwardly while signaling the others to stop.
"Have your companions stay put; come over here alone. I have something to discuss with you."
Wei Chen instructed Dugu, Shaohuang God King, and Ying Qin Supreme Deity to wait while he returned to stand before the Cunning Beast. He respectfully conveyed through his divine sense, "Senior, you called for me?"
"Um, there's something I want to ask you," the Cunning Beast communicated.
Wei Chen nodded eagerly, "Please go ahead, senior. I will share everything I know."
The Cunning Beast stared at Wei Chen for a long time before transmitting, "Kid, do you have an independent space within you?"
"That's correct."
"Can it hold living creatures?" the Cunning Beast asked excitedly.
Wei Chen nodded, "Of course, that's quite simple."
Wei Chen found it somewhat difficult to understand. The Witch Clan Continent was so powerful, and the Cunning Beast had considerable strength as well; it shouldn't be so surprised by an independent space that could accommodate people, right?
The Cunning Beast's eyes sparkled with wild excitement as it scanned Wei Chen a few times and asked eagerly, "Kid, is the world you came from the divine realm that fought against the Witch Clan millions of years ago?"
Wei Chen first nodded and then shook his head, saying, "Yes and no. The Spatial Plane I come from is of a lower level; it's under that divine realm, but I haven't cultivated in the divine realm itself. I'm not strong enough for that yet."
Upon hearing this, the Cunning Beast suddenly burst into laughter and said, "No worries, no worries. It's all the same."
