Although Xi Qing was eliminated, Yang Fan remained squatting in that spot, tightly clutching the five strange stones Xi Qing had given him, his head lowered in silence.

The others present also remained quiet, not disturbing him. After all, his good brother had died right before his eyes; anyone would be upset.

After a while, Yang Fan raised his head. The others saw that his face was now serious. Then, Yang Fan spoke, "Everyone, we must win this time, not just for myself, but also for Xi Qing."

Just then, Xue Lian stepped forward and interrupted Yang Fan, saying, "Yang Fan, I also plan to withdraw."

Hearing this, Yang Fan was shocked. He turned to look at Xue Lian and asked, "Why?"

Xue Lian gave a bitter smile. "You've probably noticed that my strength barely meets the minimum requirement. The opponents you'll face next are all very strong. If I stay here, I'll only be a burden. I have a deep understanding of my own abilities."

"But…" Yang Fan wanted to persuade him further.

However, Xue Lian interrupted him again. "Alright, I know what you're going to say, but don't worry, I won't remain silent. After I go back, I'll work even harder to cultivate. Sooner or later, I'll have another match with you."

Yang Fan looked at Xue Lian's serious expression and, after a moment of愣住了, said, "Okay, I'll wait for that day."

Xue Lian smiled, then took out the remaining seven strange fragments from his storage space and handed them to Yang Fan, saying, "It's useless for me to keep these. You and I are both from the Xuantian Domain, so it's best to leave them to you."

Yang Fan slowly accepted the strange stones in Xue Lian's hand. Then, Xue Lian said, "Xuantian Domain, I'm leaving it to you two, Yang Fan and Hun Huan!"

After speaking, Xue Lian crushed the bead in his hand and was eliminated.

At this moment, Yu Qian stepped forward and patted Yang Fan on the shoulder, saying, "Brother Yang, don't be sad. Since they gave you the strange stones, it means they believe in you. You must not let them down!"

"Ah, I really envy you. The Xuantian Domain's contestants are all united. It's nothing like our Posa Domain and the other domains, which are truly…"

Yang Fan smiled wryly as he looked at him and said, "Now, your Posa Domain only has you left."

Yu Qian nodded indifferently and said, "But I won't give up. I must fight for one of the top five spots."

Then, he looked at Yang Fan and said, "Our Posa Domain only has me left now. Does the alliance we discussed earlier still stand?"

Yang Fan said firmly, "What kind of person do you take me for, Yang Fan? Am I someone who goes back on their word? An alliance is an alliance."

Yu Qian laughed heartily and said, "I knew I didn't misjudge you."

At this time, Hun Huan came to the two of them and said, "Now, the three of us have a total of 57 strange stones. In this secret realm, besides the three of us, there are only two people from the Qianlong Domain and three people from the Qingyun Domain."

Yang Fan nodded, then pondered for a moment and said, "The three people from the Qingyun Domain must be incredibly strong. As for the two from the Qianlong Domain, I remember that one of the leaders is very arrogant, and there's another one who's very tricky and should be stronger than that leader. We need to be careful."

Everyone nodded in agreement. Then, the three of them searched for strange stones once again.

Meanwhile, in an unknown part of the secret realm, a man dressed in luxurious clothes was walking, muttering to himself, "Is this damn secret realm really that big? I've been walking for so long, but I haven't encountered a single person?"

Just as he was talking to himself, he suddenly stopped and began to conceal his figure, because he sensed some movement ahead.

He thought to himself, "There seems to be someone ahead. I finally encountered someone, but I don't know if they're friend or foe. I should conceal myself first and then go take a look."

The Feng-surnamed man was shocked. "This guy's divine sense is so strong!" But his feet didn't slow down as he quickly fled behind him.

At this time, the other two said, "Brother, you go chase after him first. Leave this place to the two of us."

The leader looked at the surrounding situation and said, "That's the only way. You guys finish off that little person and then come over to help." After saying that, he turned into a ray of light and chased after the man who was fleeing.

The Feng-surnamed man ran faster and faster, but he realized that the person behind him was chasing him more and more closely. He frowned and said softly, "Why is this guy chasing me so closely? Why isn't he fighting with the demon beast? Ah, it's my fault for wanting to watch the show. I can't do that again next time."

After speaking, he once again increased the output of his spiritual power, and the escape technique under his feet sped up again. However, he found that no matter how fast he went, the person behind him seemed to be able to keep up with him, and the distance between them was slowly closing. He began to panic.

After all, that guy was the leader of the Qingyun Domain, the eldest brother of the five Qingyun Jade members. He knew very well how strong he was. If he was caught by him, he would definitely have to put in a lot of effort.

Just as he was thinking about how to escape, he suddenly sensed three people ahead. After scanning them with his divine sense, he found that it was actually Yang Fan and the others. His expression changed, and then his eyes rolled in their sockets. Suddenly, a sly smile appeared on his face. He said softly, "If I can't have a good time, then none of you should even think about it." As he spoke, he directly rushed towards where Yang Fan and the others were.

At this time, Yang Fan and the other two were also searching for strange stones. Suddenly, they sensed a powerful aura rushing towards them. The three of them stood firm, their expressions solemn, and they assumed a fighting stance. Yu Qian asked softly, "Who could it be?"

Yang Fan said, "No matter who it is, they don't have good intentions."

Then, as the person arrived, the Feng-surnamed man landed in front of Yang Fan and the others. The three of them frowned slightly when they saw that it was him, but they weren't flustered. After all, there were three of them, and there was only one of him. Just then, Yang Fan suddenly said, "That's not right, there's someone else behind him." Then, the leader of the Qingyun Domain landed in front of the three of them again. The three of them and the Feng-surnamed man and the leader of the Qingyun Domain formed a pincer formation.

The three of them looked at the scene before them, and none of them acted rashly. After all, whoever moved first would become the primary target.
