After that, Feng Ya Yue suggested they travel together.
Fang Ming Jing didn't refuse.
He found that she was quite good at grilling fish, and she would tell him interesting stories.
For example, she would talk about the most interesting places on the continent, the strange customs of some small countries and villages, and some stories about the six great families and the three great dynasties...
Fang Ming Jing enjoyed listening to these things.
He had never seen any of them, and he hadn't even left the Holy Land before this secret realm trial.
Time flowed steadily in this pleasant atmosphere.
It was already the fifth day of the secret realm's opening.
Compared to when they first entered, the secret realm had completely changed.
All that could be seen was a barren wasteland.
The once lush forest had completely withered last night—the secret realm would have strange noises every night, accompanied by increasingly clear wails.
Each time those anomalies appeared, the environment within the secret realm would gradually deteriorate.
At first, the spiritual energy became thinner, and the flowers, plants, and trees lost some of their vitality, but as time passed, this situation became increasingly severe.
Now the spiritual energy in the secret realm was already very thin, and this completely lifeless forest... its withered appearance looked both twisted and absurd, the empty holes in the thick trunks looked like faces from afar!
"I wonder what this place will eventually become."
Feng Ya Yue frowned.
Even a gifted individual like her couldn't help but feel a chill in the face of this strange situation.
"I don't know either."
Crunch.
Fang Ming Jing took a bite of a juicy and crispy pear.
Feng Ya Yue looked at him with a strange expression.
A small deer had given him the pear just moments ago, because a few minutes earlier, this pampered little Holy Son had mumbled that he wanted to eat a pear.
If it had happened only once, it would have been understandable, but during the past few days of traveling together, Feng Ya Yue discovered that things were not so simple.
Sometimes, when the little Holy Son would set his sights on a spirit fruit growing on a tree, before he even got close, a gust of wind would blow the fruit into his hand; when he wanted to drink water, the ground would suddenly crack, and then a clear spring would gush out in front of him...
If she linked these incredible events to the concept of fortune, Feng Ya Yue felt a little numb.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
Seeing her sudden strange gaze, Fang Ming Jing was initially confused, then he tentatively offered her the fruit in his hand, "Want some?"
"No, I just suddenly realized that you, the Little Holy Son, are quite a fascinating person."
Feng Ya Yue shook her head and laughed.
Fang Ming Jing didn't understand what she meant, but he didn't mind, he just smiled lightly.
That kind of gentle and innocent smile was very easy to evoke a woman's maternal instincts...
"I think Ya Yue Jie is great."
"Really?"
"Yeah, because Ya Yue Jie is pretty and kind, everyone would like her..."
"Does the Little Holy Son really think so?"
Feng Ya Yue couldn't help but feel happy.
She eagerly pursued the question, making Fang Ming Jing widen his eyes, seemingly not expecting her to be so serious, so he stammered and lowered his head, whispering:
"No, I just have a sweet mouth..."
Just a sweet mouth...
Sweet mouth...
The fourth princess of the Great Feng Dynasty felt her facial expression stiffen, and it took her a long time to recover.
By then, she no longer had any interest in talking.
As a gentle and good child, Fang Ming Jing was a little embarrassed, but before he could say anything, there were some noises coming from ahead.
Bang!
A dull thud.
Then, a figure that had been heavily struck was thrown back, like a bundle of hay flying through the air before crashing into a dead tree beside them and exploding into a bloody mist.
"Congealed Truth Realm beast."
Not paying attention to the dead figure, Feng Ya Yue frowned at the shadow behind the dead tree.
It was a ferocious-looking great ape.
Red eyes, thick neck, broad shoulders, tiger arms, sturdy legs, the giant ape stared straight ahead, its gray-black fur-covered muscles looked like swollen lumps, its terrifying aura even made the air become scorching hot.
"It doesn't look right."
"Indeed, all the beasts in this secret realm have gone crazy."
The two suspected it had something to do with the strange anomalies in the secret realm at night.
Because the beasts they encountered on the first and second days were mostly normal, but after the third strange event occurred, the beasts began to become manic, and now, the beasts in this secret realm had completely lost their sanity.
ROAR！！！！！！！！！！
Staring straight at the two figures in front of it for a long time, the giant ape suddenly let out a roar, the sound was so loud that even the nearby giant trees were knocked over, and its muscles seemed to tense in an instant, then,
Boom!
The ground was instantly shattered, and the giant ape charged forward with immense impact.
Its speed was far beyond what its physique should have allowed.
"Last time, I made the move, this time it's your turn, Little Holy Son."
"Okay."
During their brief conversation, the giant ape's massive shadow had completely enveloped them, and its millstone-thick arm had already swung up to strike!
The surrounding air was stirred up, like a heavy hammer, attacking with extreme force.
"..."
Only now did Fang Ming Jing unsheath his long sword.
However,
The moment the long sword left its scabbard, Feng Ya Yue saw a flash of silver thread in front of her.
Was that sword light?
As this question arose in her mind, she saw that the silver sword light suddenly exploded, like a gentle breeze turning into a raging storm, and a golden flame roared up!
At this moment, even though the giant ape's straight-out swinging arm was as formidable as a speeding train, the moment the flame flashed, it swallowed it up as if it were a matter of course.
