Lin Xiao stood amidst a fallen crowd of Great Luo Sacred Sect disciples, one of the few still standing, his expression calm and composed, unlike He Hong and the others who looked pale.

His serene demeanor made Lin Xiao stand out from the crowd.

Yun Mengxi also glanced at Lin Xiao, knowing that the Supreme Holy Maiden wasn't looking at her, but at Lin Xiao.

Annoyed by the attention, Lin Xiao decided to stare back at the Supreme Holy Maiden, scrutinizing her from head to toe.

"Don't look into her eyes, you'll get lost in them!" Yun Mengxi urgently sent a voice transmission to Lin Xiao, worried he might embarrass himself.

"Isn't it just the Yin-Yang Dual Pupils? I'm curious to see what's so peculiar about them." Lin Xiao wasn't ignorant; he had heard of the Supreme Holy Maiden, Meng Fanying, and her naturally unique pupils that could ensnare anyone who gazed into them.

From a distance, Meng Fanying and Lin Xiao locked eyes.

"Truly courting death," a young man from the Nine Heavens Sacred Sect shook his head from above. Lin Xiao, a mere Sea Transformation Realm cultivator, dared to look directly into the Yin-Yang Dual Pupils, as if he didn't know the meaning of death.

Lin Xiao felt the surrounding sounds vanish, witnessing the red sun rising, the mysterious moon hanging, and stars shifting between the alternation of day and night.

"What is this? An illusion or a consciousness space?"

Lin Xiao quickly broke free from Meng Fanying's illusion by channeling the True Dragon Power and Ice Phoenix Power within him. The True Dragon Power transformed into a colossal dragon, crushing the sun with one claw, while the Ice Phoenix Power became a pure white divine phoenix, swallowing the mysterious moon in one gulp.

The illusion shattered as if nothing had happened.

On the giant turtle, Meng Fanying closed her eyes, not opening them for a long time.

This scene left Yun Mengxi and the young man from the Nine Heavens Sacred Sect astonished.

"How did you do it?" Yun Mengxi, though unsure of what transpired, could tell that Meng Fanying had used an illusion on Lin Xiao, and it seemed Lin Xiao had won this remote confrontation.

"Not sure, I just saw a sun and a mysterious moon, and crushing them seemed to work." Lin Xiao shrugged at Yun Mengxi, looking relaxed.

"Is that even possible?" Yun Mengxi was at a loss for words.

"Sister Yun, who is leading the Nine Heavens Sacred Sect?" Lin Xiao sent a voice transmission to Yun Mengxi.

"His name is Zhou Haoyang, one of the 108 True Disciples of the Nine Heavens Sacred Sect, at the same realm as me." Yun Mengxi, having nothing better to do, chatted with Lin Xiao to pass the time.

"Where does his strength rank among the True Disciples of the Nine Heavens Sacred Sect?" Lin Xiao had only heard of the Holy Son and Holy Maiden of the Nine Heavens Sacred Sect, not paying much attention to the other True Disciples.

"Probably ranks tenth."

Lin Xiao felt a stir in his heart: "The foundation of the Nine Heavens Sacred Sect is indeed stronger than our Great Luo Sacred Sect."

While Lin Xiao and Yun Mengxi chatted, the people from the Nine Heavens Sacred Sect all emerged from the giant gate, numbering just over five hundred.

After a while, people from the Three Great Demon Sects arrived, and Lin Xiao searched among the Yellow Springs Demon Sect crowd but didn't see Han Xiao.

The arrival of the Three Great Demon Sects, who were antagonistic and hostile to the Three Great Sacred Sects, heightened the tension.

A sinister young man emerged from the Yellow Springs Demon Sect, his eyes glowing with bloodlust, his presence filled with a murderous aura. His gaze swept over the female disciples of the Three Great Sacred Sects, unabashedly displaying his desire.

"Fang Xunhuan of the Yellow Springs Demon Sect, notorious for capturing female disciples of the Three Great Sacred Sects, those who fall into his hands meet a terrible fate." On the spaceship, the elder leading the Great Luo Sacred Sect frowned, revealing the identity of the sinister young man, also serving as a warning to the disciples of the Great Luo Sacred Sect.

"Don't worry, Elder. Once inside the Asura Secret Realm, I'll kill him with one punch."

To Lin Xiao's surprise, Wan Yujing stepped forward.

"That's the spirit our Great Luo Sacred Sect disciples should have." Several elders nodded in approval.

Voices from the Eternal Demon Sect and Sacrificial Dao Demon Sect drew everyone's attention.

"We swear an oath here: the winner takes all the loser's treasures! If violated, may heaven and earth destroy us!"

Two Sea Transformation Realm peak demon cultivators from the Eternal Demon Sect and Sacrificial Dao Demon Sect made a Great Dao Oath, capturing the crowd's attention.

"What oath did they make? What are they betting on?" Countless people were curious.

"They're betting on who can kill more people, and the winner takes all the loser's treasures!" Yun Mengxi's voice carried a hint of killing intent.

Hearing Yun Mengxi's words, all the disciples of the Great Luo Sacred Sect were enraged!

Disciples from the other two Sacred Sects also learned the truth, directing furious and murderous gazes at the two demon cultivators.

"Hahaha, take a good look, the more you hate me, the happier I'll be when I kill you." The man from the Sacrificial Dao Demon Sect, around thirty years old, seemed even more excited facing the numerous gazes from the Three Great Sacred Sects.

"Feng Xiao, the little demon of the Sacrificial Dao Demon Sect, is the disciple of the great demon Feng Chen."

Someone revealed information about Feng Xiao, including his methods and more.

Lin Xiao silently memorized it.

"The demon cultivator from the Eternal Demon Sect requires more caution. His name is Ling Han, and he practices an ancient demon clan technique, allowing him to demonize and enhance his combat strength during battle."

Yun Mengxi glanced at the many disciples on the spaceship, hoping they could survive.

The mist in the valley where the Asura Secret Realm was located gradually dispersed, revealing a pitch-black barrier, seemingly an entrance to another space, leading to the legendary Asura Secret Realm.

"It's open!"

People from the Three Great Sacred Sects and Three Great Demon Sects all looked towards the entrance.

"The Asura Secret Realm opens once every ten years because the Asura Laws inside weaken every ten years. Once inside, you can stay for ten days. If you don't come out after ten days, you'll be trapped inside for ten years."

Yun Mengxi's storage ring flashed, distributing jade stones to each disciple participating in the Asura Trial, instructing them to leave a trace of spiritual power within the jade stones.

If someone perished, Yun Mengxi would know from outside.

Other sects did the same to monitor the survival of their disciples.

"We'll go in first, then wait for a chance!"

The Yellow Springs Demon Sect moved first, with Sea Transformation Realm demon cultivators flying into the space entrance, while Condensing Yuan Realm demon cultivators ran in.

The Eternal Demon Sect and Sacrificial Dao Demon Sect also moved, with Feng Xiao and Ling Han not wanting to lag behind, transforming into two streaks of light flying into the space entrance.

On the Nine Heavens Sacred Sect side, Zhou Haoyang called over ten Sea Transformation Realm cultivators. This team was the elite force of the Nine Heavens Sacred Sect, tasked with executing a secret mission during the Asura Trial.

"Once inside, don't compete for any opportunities or separate. Just reach the third layer and find that item. Understood?" Zhou Haoyang transmitted to each member of the elite team.

"Understood." The ten Sea Transformation Realm cultivators nodded.

"Alright, I've said everything. You can go in now." Zhou Haoyang, filled with anticipation, glanced towards the Supreme Sacred Sect, noticing Meng Fanying had opened her eyes again, seemingly looking towards the Great Luo Sacred Sect.

Zhou Haoyang was both puzzled and curious. Was that young Sea Transformation Realm man from the Great Luo Sacred Sect really worth the Supreme Holy Maiden's attention?
