Stepping on the demon door, the witch becomes the strongest.

Chapter 582: Xiankong Island Wuya Sect
The huge cavity evaporated by the comet, with the surrounding sea water constantly pouring into the center, like a plain that had burst its dam.

Anna was about to rush towards the entrance to the secret underwater realm when she was suddenly stopped by Yan Yu.

"Wait a few minutes." Yan Yu said.

Anna was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted.

The location of the secret realm entrance is generally a random sequence, switching back and forth between a few or dozens of fixed entrances. The switching is based on time, some switching every few minutes, some every few seconds, and some switching several times per second. But generally speaking, it is always a good idea not to follow someone else's footsteps and enter immediately.

Because many ordinary extraordinary people are more cautious, they will lie in ambush for a few minutes after entering the secret realm to see if anyone follows them in. If they lack experience in fighting against such people and happen to encounter a secret realm with a slow entrance switching, they will easily be ambushed.

Yan Yu stared at the entrance to the secret realm until it was completely submerged by the sea. It still emitted a purple light that was difficult to capture with the naked eye. He heard Anna suddenly say:
"Oh, I remember now! Isn't that Supernova Giobini?"

"Do you know him?" Yan Yu asked.

"Don't you watch international news?" Anna asked back.

"No." Yan Yu replied.

Lu's domestic media primarily focused on domestic news, while international news was often reprinted from foreign media outlets, often prefaced with "Quoted from XXX Agency." Naturally, they weren't particularly well-informed. To mitigate this lack of information, Yan Yu would regularly organize team visits to the Super Hero League. However, after being recruited by the Super Hero League, "Supernova" Giobini went straight to the National Security Agency, focusing on investigating secret realms appearing abroad. Therefore, not much was known about him.

Of course, if I had known that I would meet this guy on this trip, I would have done enough intelligence research in advance - but we just met him!
"This guy is from Northern England," Anna introduced. "At the beginning of the year, around March, a tower appeared in Ellianthir. The media called it the 'Secret Tower Realm.' It alarmed almost the entirety of Europe at the time; even Mitch got involved."

"The exploration lasted for over half a month. Those who entered included civilian and official superhumans from all over Europe, as well as superheroes from the Super Hero League. The action was broadcast live around the world. The secret realm within the tower was divided into multiple levels, each containing various traps and enemies, making it incredibly difficult for the explorers to navigate."

"Hmm." Yan Yu was silent for a moment and asked, "So the final winner is this 'supernova' Giobini?"

"That's right," Anna said. "This Giobini was previously a folk wizard, completely unknown. It was as if he suddenly appeared from nowhere, a peerless master, and fought his way to the core position at the top of the tower. He first killed the 'Preacher' Colt, then defeated the 'Thunderbird' Margaret, and finally took the entire secret realm into his possession."

"He seems like the hero of some starting point loser type of movie." Yan Yu said, stroking his chin. "Any information on the battle?"

"You know that wizards generally have a more insidious combat style, right?" Anna laughed. "Their spells are mostly silent, making them much harder to identify and guard against than your land-based mage's constant use of fire and lightning. For example, Roger 'The Thorn Birds' is best at trapping people with invisible demonic traps and then killing them with arcane missiles. As a veteran wizard transcendent, this style of his has influenced many people."

"But Giobini's style is completely different from his. He's better at frontal assaults, and his spells are mostly fierce, powerful, and impressive. A reporter interviewed Roger, and he said Giobini and he don't share the same spell system."

"Hmm." After being reminded by Anna, Yan Yu finally had some ideas.

Using magic as a means of attack, the magicians of Luguo all have their own expertise systems, such as Zhou Hongyu's fire breathing, Su Yunjin's water release, and Xie Ruoxi's thunder. Naturally, there are many subdivided schools under the British wizards.

In the past, the most dominant wizarding class was the Manipulator class, exemplified by Roger "The Thorn Birds," who comprised over 70% of the world's wizards. They wielded what was known as "arcane energy." The original word for this energy, "Arcane," meant "mysterious" and "obscure." Therefore, its combat advantage lay in its exceptionally stealthy and treacherous nature, making it difficult to defend against.

Besides these mainstream arcanists, there are also many wizards belonging to niche schools. Judging from the massive comet that Giobini just released, this guy should belong to the Evocation School, using something called "elemental energy"... That's why Roger said he and Giobini didn't share the same magic system.

Yan Yu was recalling the information about the Transfiguration Department in his mind when he heard Anna continue:

"Do you know why the Super Hero League offered him a sky-high contract? Because the media considers him the second 'Dragon City Flying General.' If he had participated in the battle in the Secret Palace, you wouldn't have been able to steal the show."

"What the hell?" Yan Yu was immediately amused. "How does this guy look like me?"

"Because he once managed to defeat many enemies at once and emerged unscathed during the battle for the Secret Tower," Anna shrugged. "And he also has a spell that allows him to dodge attacks over short distances. Isn't that very similar to your ghostly movements?"

"At best, he's just a poor imitator!" Yan Yu said angrily. "If the fake meets the Black Whirlwind, the end will be death! It's almost time, let's go!"

"Okay." Anna succeeded in fanning the flames and was very proud of herself, thinking to herself that my provocation was really clever.

If Yan Yu and that Qiao Bini were both injured, I would help him kill the other one, then turn around and capture him, bring him back and give him an aphrodisiac, so that he would be inseparable from my body and have a few more children... The plan was perfect! It was flawless!

Yan Yu didn't know what she was planning, because the title of the strongest in this world could not be touched by others, so he took Anna and quickly escaped into the entrance of the secret realm.

As the world spun around, the two of them had already entered a secret realm and arrived at a world of ice and snow.

All around them was the boundless ocean, with icebergs faintly visible in the distance. They were standing on the rocky beach of a large island, with a vast snow-covered forest stretching out before them.

Yan Yu quickly scanned with his spiritual sense, confirmed that there was no ambush around, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Anna tried to fly, but found that the broom was always about three meters above the ground and could not fly. She knew that there must be a no-fly zone here.

"Where do we go next?" she asked.

Yan Yu did not answer, but took out the Liangyi Sword again and made sword gestures with his hands.

The Liangyi Sword quickly pointed in a direction, directly towards the mountains in the center of the island.

"You're actually quite convenient." Anna exclaimed.

"What if we let them go in for a few minutes first?" Yan Yu said contemptuously, "We have a compass in hand, let's see who reaches the core of the secret realm first!"

"But seriously," Anna added, "I think the one we should be wary of isn't Giovanni, but the female transcendent next to him."

"It's well known that Giobini is a loner and never teams up with others. Why is that female Transcendent being by his side? And she's Asian... If this secret realm is related to the Lu Kingdom, could that woman also be a descendant of the Lu Kingdom and happen to have clues to this secret realm? Is that why Giobini is willing to work with her?"

"Hey, when did you become so smart?" Yan Yu said in surprise, "Have you started to grow a brain?"

"I've always been smart, okay? Stop looking down on others," Anna said angrily. "And don't forget, I'm the leader of the witch group. How can I hold this position without being smart and vigilant?"

Considering that what Anna said was possible, the two of them quickened their pace and walked into the snow-covered forest.

Yan Yu's spiritual sense scanned the surroundings. Although he didn't find any enemies, he noticed something strange: most of the surrounding trees were badly damaged, with obvious signs of cutting. Judging from their number, there were too many of them, not likely the result of a fight between two or three sword immortals.

Ok?
Yan Yu suddenly warned:
"Look out! Something's coming!"

Suddenly, a line of snow flew out in front of them and almost instantly appeared in front of the two of them.

Yan Yu held his breath and looked at it, his eyes stern:
It turned out to be the Wind Blade and Frost Sword Formation!

The Wind Blade and Frost Sword Formation, which they had once faced together with the Dragon Soaring Team in the secret realm of Changbai Mountain, was now an enhanced version of the Transformation Palace Stage Plus. Wherever the snow line passed, dense, invisible sword energy slashed through the swirling snow and wind, sweeping towards them, completely covering an area several miles in radius, leaving no room for safe escape.

And there was no Ye Jun by Yan Yu's side who could protect him with the Xuan Guang Ruler.

He quickly formed a sword gesture and told Anna:

"Hide behind me."

Before he finished speaking, the Huangting Sword slammed heavily onto the ground, and the Liangyi Sword shot out like lightning!

The Huafu-level Wind Blade and Frost Sword formation was terrifying in both quantity and force. Yan Yu used the Liangyi Sword to maneuver in front, blocking most of the sword energy directed at the two men. The rest he could only block with the Huangting Sword.

Although the Huangting Sword is a wide and thick heavy sword, it is like a shield when inserted into the ground. However, the sword energy is as dense as a torrential rain, hitting the sword body with a sound like frying beans, and the impact force is continuous. For a moment, the sword body even has the tendency to be forcibly shaken back. Yan Yu can only cast a spell and support the giant sword with both hands to prevent it from being smashed away by countless sword energy.

Anna hid behind him and was shocked by the sharpness and strength of the sword energy in the formation. She reached into the bag with her right hand and cast a magic spell, summoning countless flaming pythons, trying to break through the endless waves of sword energy in front of her.

The next second, these fire pythons were cut into pieces and dissipated in the wind and snow!

Fortunately, the Wind Blade and Frost Sword Formation was an intermittent attack. It came and went quickly, and stopped in the blink of an eye.

"Six seconds." Yan Yu said.

"Only six seconds?" Anna exclaimed in surprise, "I thought it was almost half a minute!"

"That's what happens to people with no sense of time," Yan Yurui commented. "You should use your phone to time it and see how long it will take for the next wave of attacks to arrive."

"There's another wave?" Anna was shocked. "Let's not talk about us for now. Giovanni came in earlier than us and is probably dead by now!"

"If it's as you said, the woman next to him has clues to the secret realm, then he may not die." Yan Yu said calmly.

--------

"Supernova" Giobini is a young bald man with a hooked nose.

He actually looks a bit gloomy, but if a woman likes Western looks, she will find his facial features quite exotic - this is the case with his female companion Zhang Xinlan.

Zhang Xinlan is an immigrant from the Kingdom of Lu, having moved to England with her parents a year ago. The reason for their migration was simple: her father, through some unintentional circumstances, had become an illegal, absentee monk. At the time, the Kingdom of Lu hadn't yet implemented a policy to recruit these monks. Her father, accustomed to reading street novels, feared he would be discovered and taken to a laboratory for biopsy and research. So, he sold his property and took his wife and daughter abroad.

Many immigrants, once they choose to give up their country of origin, develop a strong motivation to quickly convert to their adopted country (otherwise, wouldn't that prove they made a mistake immigrating?). Women, on the other hand, have the convenient option of marrying local white people. Zhang Xinlan inherited her father's spiritual aptitude and, after several extraordinary boyfriends, finally met the "supernova" Qiao Bini.

Her own cultivation aptitude wasn't particularly strong, while Giobini's exorbitant price tag offered by the Superhero League clearly showed the stark difference in their social status. Considering this her only chance in life, she quickly resolved to secure her boyfriend's heart. She stole a clue to a secret realm her father had been searching for and gave it to him to prove her worth.

As for whether this is useful or not, that is another matter. Anyway, Giobini gladly accepted it.

"This secret realm is called 'Xiankong Island' in Lu Country." Zhang Xinlan led him through the snow, reciting the three words "Xiankong Island" in Lu Country's language. She continued, "There used to be a sword immortal sect on the island called 'Wuya Sword Sect', responsible for guarding the treasures left behind by a great sword immortal."

"Sword Immortal." Qiao Bini nodded and said, "The Yeyu from Lu Country is the Sword Immortal."

"Yan Yu." Zhang Xinlan corrected his pronunciation. "He's very powerful, isn't he? So the Sword Immortal must be very powerful too. There must be good things in the Sword Immortal Secret Realm."

Qiao Bini expressed his doubt in his heart, but said hypocritically:
"Won't your father be angry if you help me explore this secret place?"

"Yes." Zhang Xinlan immediately pretended to be frightened, tears welling up in her eyes. "Honey, my father will definitely kill me if he finds out! You must protect me!"

This tactic of crying and playing the victim to Little Pearl is a surefire way to deal with the more traditional-minded men of the Lu Kingdom, such as male chauvinists like Liu Longtao. With a single tear, a ticket becomes a warning, a detention becomes a reprimand. It's a natural gift, possessed by a single thought, with endless possibilities.

But if you deal with a playboy like Li Zhaojiang and make his nose feel a little sour, it means you have sprayed too much perfume on your hair.

Qiao Binni is even more of a playboy than Li Zhaojiang. Not only does he not feel any sympathy for his girlfriend, but he is even a little wary of her.

If her father knew about this, he might come after me... If he's as weak as she is, it's fine, but what if he's incredibly powerful, like someone as powerful as Ye Yu... To be on the safe side, after I get the things, I'll dig a grave for her here and let her rest in peace. That way, the clues to her father will be completely gone, and he definitely won't be able to be traced back to me...

"My dear." He quickly hugged Zhang Xinlan in his arms, "I came back to England this time just to take you to Mitch. Don't worry about your father. I will make sure he can't find us. We will start a new life in Mitch from now on, okay?"

Zhang Xinlan nodded happily, not even considering the possibility of fraud. She had grown up hearing stories like, "Foreigners value contracts" and "Put spare parts in an oil-paper bag, and the expiration date is a hundred years." So she gave him a kiss of gratitude.

The two hugged each other for a long time, and suddenly they heard a clanging sound in the distance, and the wind blade and frost sword formation attacked again.

Zhang Xinlan quickly took out a small sword token and activated her true energy. All the sword energy dispersed to both sides and did not affect her and her boyfriend.

She was right about one thing: this small sword token was the magic weapon of the Wuya Sword Sect. It contained the Mother of Primordial Magnetism, which could repel all metal, iron, and sword energy when activated. It was also a key tool for exploring the secret realm here.

If her father found out that his daughter had stolen this thing, he would definitely want to kill her on the spot.
