The Most Powerful Bodyguard

It’s now!

Feeling that the unidentified object suddenly appeared on the Titan giant, Yang Yan, who had long been ready, suddenly darted into mid-air, mobilizing all the Wish Power, forcibly casting the Spatial Cage.

Although he clearly knew that in such a place, the Spatial Cage could last at most a few seconds, it was enough for him.

Only then did Yang Yan observe that it was an extinct ancient creature—a Mole Rat.

This creature lived in areas under constant pressure, yet it was never heard of using Spatial Secret Techniques or being able to hide its form.

Yang Yan felt a tinge of strangeness.

He quietly speculated that the common trait of the creatures here was their immense strength, possibly indicating a secret in this land that enhanced physical power.

As for other talents, that would require slow verification.

Seeing no more danger, Yang Yan did not kill, but simply collected this little fellow, comparable to a Nascent Soul late stage, into his Nascent Void.

In the future, whether for refining to obtain some materials or taming it as the Ancient Abyss Sect’s Mountain Guardian Beast, both are excellent choices.

After encountering three crises in a row, Yang Yan became more cautious and continued to advance towards the palace area.

Gradually delving deeper, Yang Yan suddenly stopped because he noticed the key tremble slightly and then emit a wondrous glow, slowly ascending into the air and flying forward.

Hesitating for a moment, Yang Yan followed the key’s guidance to an Array.

Teleportation Array?

After a little observation, Yang Yan discerned its operating pattern, then infused Spiritual Power into it, and was immediately teleported into a chamber with a flash of light.

Seeing no danger, Yang Yan began to inspect the chamber.

The chamber was empty, but in the middle, there was an open box containing a peculiar fruit the size of an egg, emitting a colorful glow.

Such a shape, such a luster...

Yang Yan suddenly recalled reading about a mysterious fruit in a book—the Secret Fruit.

This is a treasure that can grant its consumer certain talents, existing only in legends.

To confirm if this was the legendary Secret Fruit, Yang Yan carefully examined the unremarkable box.

Indeed, this was Absolute Gold.

Legend has it that only this metal could preserve the freshness of the Secret Fruit and lock its power within.

After observing for a while and finding no mechanisms in the box, Yang Yan boldly took out the Secret Fruit and consumed it in one bite.

As the fruit dissolved in his mouth, Yang Yan felt as if his insides were being cut by a thousand knives, with his body showing signs of cracking.

Now he had no doubt, this was indeed the Secret Fruit.

Yang Yan gritted his teeth and silently endured, but the pain intensified, almost causing him to faint.

In a daze, the bones in his body shattered inch by inch and then liquefied, expelled along with the discarded blood.

Simultaneously, the Secret Fruit’s power flowed continuously, swiftly generating pristine white bones and blood.

Moments later, Yang Yan’s body was renewed, his skin as smooth as a newborn baby’s, and his body’s strength significantly increased.

Yang Yan lightly punched out, and the space rippled.

Yang Yan was overjoyed, clearly feeling that his physical body was just a little shy of a Divinity Transformation cultivator.

Recalling the pain he had just endured, Yang Yan felt a surge of heart palpitations.

The Secret Fruit’s potency was too immense, resulting in his body transforming and still retaining some power within, which, once fully digested later, could likely achieve Divinity Transformation of the physical body.

Yang Yan stood up and activated the Teleportation Array to proceed to the next Secret Realm.

Upon arriving at this Secret Realm, Yang Yan shivered involuntarily, quickly raising his Spiritual Power for protection.

Everywhere in this Secret Realm was filled with wind, snow, and ice, the temperature extremely frigid.

Yang Yan tried Flying in the Sky, and his expression changed suddenly.

In the high altitude, the temperature was even colder, and in a moment, his whole body was covered by ice and snow, unable to move.

Even worse, his blood froze, and he couldn’t export Spiritual Power.

The next moment, like a meteorite, he fell toward the ground.

Fortunately, Yang Yan had Wish Power protecting him, and during the fall, the Wish Power was automatically activated, and his body thawed just in time; as he was about to crash to the ground, he managed to forcibly stop his descent in mid-air using his Body Technique.

Otherwise, the impact of such a fall would inevitably cause serious injury.

Yang Yan couldn’t help but feel alarmed.

An array easily set by the Great Power had such might; how extraordinary must their own power be?!

Yang Yan reined in his wandering thoughts and attempted to fly again.

However, having learned from the previous incident, he was much more cautious this time.

Through Yang Yan’s probing, he soon discovered a pattern: heights of a hundred zhang had virtually no effect on him.

However, every hundred zhang increment lowered the temperature by a degree; Yang Yan could only remain at the thousand-zhang altitude despite using all his skills.

If he reached ten thousand zhang, he would once again be instantly turned into an ice sculpture, with all the strength within him completely frozen.

Maintaining a hundred-zhang height, Yang Yan diligently scanned the ice and snow Secret Realm, trying his best to seek out any suspicious targets.

And so, for two full hours, Yang Yan only saw a few sporadic minor magical beasts, but nothing else.

Yang Yan found it odd; were they all hidden beneath the snow and ice, and if so, how could he find them?

Stepping past each bit of land was impractical; how long would that take!

Looking at the boundless ice fields below, Yang Yan sighed heavily and descended to the ground, gathering Spiritual Sense to probe beneath the ice fields.

After a while, a faint smile appeared on Yang Yan’s face.

Indeed, they were hidden beneath.

Without delay, Yang Yan directly pierced the ice and snow beneath him with Spiritual Power and then jumped down into the subterranean world beneath the ice fields.

At the moment of landing again, Yang Yan couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.

The entire world was constructed entirely of ice and snow, with interconnected passageways everywhere.

Moreover, at intervals, there were crystals emitting faint light, illuminating the surrounding environment.

However, the eerie silence here gave Yang Yan an inexplicable sense of foreboding.

He couldn’t help but secretly brace himself for any possible attack or danger.

Yang Yan slowly advanced through this ice and snow world, releasing Spiritual Sense in search of the Secret Treasure.

An hour passed, and suddenly Yang Yan discovered that he had returned to his original location!

Yang Yan looked around solemnly.

Could it be... this is a maze?

Yet earlier, he had already explored, and there was still no sign of any Power of Space fluctuation.

He gathered Spiritual Power in his hands, ready for anything.

But after a while, he found no danger at all.

Yang Yan pondered for a moment and finally thought of the Mole Rat he had suppressed in the Nascent Void.

He imbued the Mole Rat with Divine Sense, driving it to explore the underground space.

At first, the little fellow was reluctant, but when Yang Yan released power infinitely close to that of a Divinity Transformation, it immediately bowed down.

Nonetheless, to be cautious, Yang Yan forcibly added a Soul Restriction onto it.
