"Awake, awake!"

Seeing Li Chen open his eyes, the people beside him quickly exclaimed.

When they saw the smile on Li Chen’s face, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Christina looked at Li Chen curiously: "What happened to you just now?"

"Nothing much." Li Chen shook his head: "Just had a dream."

"A dream?" Zhang Shutong nodded and analyzed seriously: "Now that you mention it, I do remember, when entering the Three Births River, I also seemed to fall asleep, and in the dream, I recalled the time when I was part of the World-Destroying Beast, except perhaps because that dream was too boring, I woke up after a while."

"Did you all experience the same?" Li Chen couldn’t help asking.

Christina nodded without saying much, but Li Chen saw a hint of sadness on her face.

"By the way, Xinxin, Tian Yi, you’re here too?" Li Chen turned his head and looked at the two girls beside him, as they had come here to find them.

Tian Yi extended a slender finger, tapped her chin, and hummed: "Earlier, we encountered a very powerful guy, and because we couldn’t beat him, we ran all the way over here."

"Is it that simple?" Li Chen asked in surprise.

"Just that simple." Bai Tianyi said with certainty.

Li Chen turned to Zhang Shutong beside him: "Have we crossed the Three Births River?"

"Crossed it." Zhang Shutong nodded: "To be precise, you were asleep for most of the journey, and I rowed the boat to bring you across."

Li Chen: "..."

At this time, Li Chen curiously looked at Tian Yi: "You can’t fly around the Three Births River, how did you cross it?"

"Walked across." Bai Tianyi said innocently: "Aren’t we cultivators? Encountering such a river, even if we can’t fly, we can walk across, right?"

Li Chen was left speechless.

Even Christina looked at Bai Tianyi with a peculiar expression.

Walk across, you say it so simply!

The Three Births River drowns anything, it won’t even float a feather, how could you just walk across?

But Zhang Shutong remained calm.

Perhaps it’s because he’s lived too long, or perhaps because he’s a Destroyer, nothing seems too surprising to him.

No one continued the topic further but started observing their surroundings.

"Did you investigate the surroundings when you got here?"

"Had a look, seems like there’s no danger around." Yang Xin nodded: "But we haven’t wandered far from here."

"Yes, yes." Bai Tianyi quickly added: "That guy chasing us seemed quite powerful, but when we crossed the river, for some reason, he stopped chasing. Later, I got hungry and saw there was a river, so I thought of catching some fish to try, but haven’t caught any yet."

Speaking of which, Bai Tianyi showed a troubled expression.

Li Chen and the others were at a loss for words again.

Perhaps Tian Yi and the others didn’t know, but they certainly did; this is the drowning water! Trying to catch fish in drowning water? Do you take the True River of Three Lives for an ordinary river?

"Have you noticed the Spiritual Energy here seems denser than the starry sky we were in before?" Christina suddenly spoke.

Li Chen felt carefully, and indeed it was.

Moreover, after crossing the Three Births River, it was no longer a void starry sky but had become a continent!

It seemed to genuinely be land on the other side of the river, and the surroundings looked just like the world of a minor world.

"Could we have entered the second layer of the Little Secret Realm?" Li Chen suddenly speculated, looking to Christina.

"Don’t look at me, I don’t know either. As I’ve mentioned, I only ventured to the entrance back then and didn’t dare go deep." Christina quickly waved her hand.

"Alright." Li Chen nodded, not asking further.

To him, this question perhaps didn’t need an answer.

Since they’re here, might as well stay.

After the earlier conversation, Li Chen seemed to have completely liberated some repressed feelings, allowing him to fully let go.

The last bit of hesitation and doubt in Li Chen’s heart also completely vanished.

He understood now that all he had to do was look forward.

No matter what awaits him ahead, he just needs to stride boldly forward.

"Are we the first to enter the second layer of the Little Secret Realm?" Christina couldn’t help asking.

"On this, you might be mistaken." Just as Christina’s voice fell, a cold laugh came from afar.

Hearing this voice, the group immediately went on alert. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

And Li Chen slightly narrowed his eyes.

"I didn’t expect it to be the legendary Three Births River!" The voice soon became delighted: "The Three Births River and the Three Lives Bridge were the treasures of the Buddhist Realm back then. Who would’ve thought they ended up here after the Buddhist Realm collapsed, it must be fate! Hahahaha!"

In Li Chen and the others’ view, a group of more than ten people appeared from the sky.

This group was easily identifiable. At least Li Chen could tell at a glance that they were all strong figures from the Demon Realm!

"Seems there are other ways into here apart from the Three Births River." Li Chen shrugged to the people beside him.

"And not just one." Zhang Shutong added.

For at that moment, not only this group of Demon Realm strong figures, but also from several directions, many strong figures were rushing over.

Among these people, there were Lone Rangers, groups of strong figures from all circles, and even some teams composed of people from different realms, like Li Chen and his group.

"Red Dust Heavenly King Li Chen!" An Immortal Realm strong figure, seeing Li Chen who had already resumed his normal appearance, squinted and shouted: "Back then, you sneaked into our Immortal Domain with malicious intent and harmed many of our compatriots. Today, we finally found you!"

"Immortal Domain compatriots, now is the time for revenge!" This Immortal Realm strong figure rallied, and immediately, many people from the Immortal Domain gathered around him.

"Yes, such coincidence." Li Chen nodded, a gleam of coldness flashing in his eyes: "What counsel do you bring me?"

"Counsel?" The Immortal Realm strong figure sneered: "What’s there to say to a butcher like you who kills indiscriminately, showing no regard for the lives of beings from all realms? Today, you have no choice but to die!"

"Wait!" At this moment, a Demon Realm strong figure suddenly stepped forward and interrupted: "Of course, if you are willing to offer the Supreme Treasure you possess to us, our Demon Realm might consider sparing your life and merely crippling your cultivation."

"Is that so?" Li Chen’s smile widened, but the cold glint in his eyes flickered even more intensely.
