Chapter 360: The Power of the Secret Realm Spirit Map

The beautiful woman blocked the doorway, so Cheng Han had no choice but to open the cabin door.

What he saw was a carefully applied light makeup on the woman, with fair skin like snow and lips as red as cinnabar. Her feminine charm surpassed what it was before.

This small detail confirmed Cheng Han's previous intuition - this woman probably had ulterior motives, otherwise why would she bother with makeup?

The beautiful woman shook the tray in her hand and smiled, "Mr. Designer, it seems like you didn't eat much in the restaurant earlier, so I brought some pastries for you."

Cheng Han politely thanked her, "Thank you!"

He felt somewhat speechless in his heart. How could he eat much for lunch after finishing a plate of pastries earlier?

Just then, as the beautiful woman was about to speak, something unexpected happened.

"Whoosh!"

A strong wind suddenly blew.

The airship tilted upwards at an angle.

The beautiful woman couldn't maintain her balance and fell to one side, involuntarily letting out a scream, "Ah~"

Cheng Han quickly reached out and grabbed the tray, using his Nine Elements combat technique to stabilize her instantly.

The beautiful woman was both surprised and frightened, stuttering as she asked, "C-could it be encountering something... strange?"

Cheng Han interrupted her, "Your daughter! Go back quickly!"

The beautiful woman exclaimed and hurriedly turned around, rushing back to her own cabin.

Cheng Han looked out the window and muttered, "Is it the Wind Evil?"

The beautiful woman guessed correctly. This fleet of airships had indeed encountered a very rare and strange phenomenon - the Wind Evil.

This thing had a very eerie characteristic - it would naturally dissipate after killing three to five people.

The Wind Evil was also a formless strangeness, and the several retired soldiers hired by the fleet had no ability to kill it.

Unfortunately, this place was more than a hundred kilometers away from the Red Armor Army's garrison, making it impossible to obtain reinforcements.

Under normal circumstances, the only solution was to wait for the Wind Evil to take enough sacrifices and leave on its own.

However...

Today was obviously not a normal situation.

Cheng Han closed the cabin door and murmured with a smile, "Before dealing with the Divine Organization, let's have an appetizer."

He quickly opened his suitcase, set up the drawing stand, and placed a blank sheet of paper on it.

At the same time...

Inside the Sea of Spirits.

The second-level Secret Realm Profound Seal instantly expanded.

"Snap!"

Cheng Han snapped his fingers.

More than a dozen pencils floated up and moved quickly on the paper.

In his extraordinary perspective...

In each pencil, it seems that there is an invisible pen hidden, and as the pencil moves, the invisible pen inputs strands of power.

"Swish! Swish!"

The pencil moved so fast that it left a trail behind.

In just a breath's time.

The pattern of an entire fleet of airships appeared on this sheet of paper.

Cheng Han made another empty grab and smiled, saying, "Come out!"

"Thud!"

The Secret Realm Seal trembled slightly.

Over a thousand strands of invisible threads appeared out of thin air.

One end of the thread was connected to a small black dot on the artwork.

The other end of the thread extended into the void.

This was the Secret Spirit Thread.

Cheng Han nodded in satisfaction and said, "'Secret Realm Spirit Map' is indeed interesting!"

The so-called "Secret Realm Spirit Map" was a powerful extraordinary ability that the Secret Realm Seal gained after advancing to the second stage. It was also a rather interesting ability.

By using the Secret Realm Seal to gather the connections of nearby living beings, one could then create a Secret Realm Spirit Map and remotely manipulate the life within the map.

Due to the true secret power possessed by the Secret Realm Seal, even a Profound Supervisor would not be able to detect it.

Most importantly, even if a powerful individual were to notice it, they could only trace it back to the Secret Realm Spirit Map and not directly locate Cheng Han himself.

The reason why he carried a complete set of drawing tools with him was not only to deceive others but also to draw the Secret Realm Spirit Map.

Cheng Han instantly devised a plan, saying, "First, let the mysterious one kill an annoying guy, then choose a lucky person to kill the mysterious one."

His gaze locked onto a small black dot and he said, "In just half a day, he used his authority as a steward to harass a widow with a child twice!"

Every airship on the Spirit Map seemed to come alive, gently floating, and the small black dot was also slowly moving.

The widow he mentioned was naturally the beautiful woman who had just delivered pastries. It was because this woman had heard that a certain designer knew the Nine Elements Martial Arts that she deliberately came to get close to him and avoid the harassment of the color embryo.

This was the widow's "hidden agenda".

Cheng Han reached out his hand again and made an empty grab towards the paper.

A faint mist slowly drifted towards a small black dot.

It was precisely the Mysterious Wind Evil!

The movement speed of the mysterious figure on the Spirit Map seemed very slow, but in reality, it was surprisingly fast, flying over two hundred meters every second.

Cheng Han's gaze carried a hint of coldness as he said, "If you don't die, who will?!"

This was the great strength of the Secret Realm Spirit Map.

The mysterious figures were a very special existence, deeply involved with the laws, and ordinary puppet techniques simply couldn't control them.

But the Secret Realm Spirit Map could control them without any hindrance.

In another cabin.

A middle-aged steward in uniform tightly closed the cabin door. His chubby face was filled with nervousness.

In theory.

As the person in charge of the airship, at this critical moment, he should have stepped forward to maintain order in the passenger cabin.

But this guy was the first to hide.

The middle-aged person in charge wiped the sweat off his forehead and muttered softly, "I've been sailing for thirty years, and today I actually encountered a strange wind. It's really unlucky!"

He cursed again, "I really hope this strangeness takes away the immortal captain. He's been pressing down on us for more than ten years, damn it..."

Before he could finish speaking.

The middle-aged person in charge suddenly heard a strange whistling sound.

"Wu~"

It sounded like it was right next to him.

His figure suddenly froze, and his eyes widened in great fear.

After a moment.

"Crack! Crack!"

The middle-aged person in charge's eyeballs suddenly burst.

He roared, broke through the wooden cabin door with a "bang".

He rushed to the side of the corridor, leaped and broke through the sturdy wooden wall, falling from the one-kilometer-high airship to the ground below.

Ten seconds later.

"Boom!"

The person in charge crashed heavily onto the ground, turning into a puddle of mud.

What's even more strange is that this rotten body didn't shed a drop of blood, as if all the blood had been sucked dry.

*

Airship.

Inside a single room.

Cheng Han's mouth curled up slightly, muttering softly, "A strange possession technique, with a hint of puppetry, can actually enhance the Secret Realm Mystic Seal a bit."

Stars and halos flashed one after another.

The completeness of the Secret Realm Mystic Seal increased by 2.14%, reaching 5.56%; the spiritual value increased by 0.8 points, reaching 279.2 points; the proficiency of the All-Knowing Eye increased by 814 points, reaching 129050/500,000.

Cheng Han looked at the Secret Realm Spirit Map again, his gaze fixed on another small black dot. "Next, it's time for the hero on the airship to make an appearance."

*

Just as the person in charge was falling from the airship.

A retired soldier named "Xiao Shan" sensed the sound of the cabin door exploding and rushed up fearlessly.

"Wu~"

The strange wind whistled.

Xiao Shan immediately used the Ninth Element's Thirteenth Style, the Soul Returning Style, and shouted, "Shock!"

The strange wind paused for a moment, then pounced straight at him.

In that instant.

Xiao Shan felt a stinging sensation in his eyes and vaguely saw a strange symbol, about the size of a pinky fingertip, flickering in mid-air.

He decisively activated the fourth symbol of the Eight Great Soul Refining Seals, the Condensed Flame Seal, and threw a punch.

As he punched.

A red light surged on the surface of his fist, emitting a faint sense of heat.

This could barely be considered a fire-type extraordinary characteristic.

"Hoo!"

The punch swept through.

The fist accurately hit the strange symbol.

"Crack!"

Xiao Shan heard an illusory cracking sound in his mind.

He instinctively realized that this punch probably hit the core of the strange wind.

This fact deeply amazed him, because it was almost impossible for anyone below the Profound Scholar level to observe the core imprint.

Then.

Xiao Shan suddenly felt a chill all over his body, as if something had infiltrated his body and entered his soul.

He immediately felt intense pain in his eyes, as if his eyeballs were about to burst, and a strong impulse surged in his heart, wanting to jump off the airship.

He knew very well that this was the counterattack of the strange wind before it died.

Xiao Shan desperately suppressed the impulse and used the Empty Slash Style on his right leg.

"Crack!"

His right leg broke.

In the intense pain.

His soul burst out with potential, helping him resist the mental erosion of the strangeness.

Two seconds later.

The strange feeling disappeared.

This meant that the strangeness had died.

Xiao Shan grinned, "A strangeness that can only be dealt with by two squads of the Scarlet Armor Army using magical tools, and I actually killed one on my own."

He immediately gasped and shouted loudly, "Someone come quickly! My leg is broken!"

*

Inside the single room.

Cheng Han looked at the Secret Realm Spirit Map and secretly praised, "He's a real man!"

With a thought, the Spirit Map fell into silence.

The previously moving airship and the small black dot suddenly stopped, now appearing like a real painting.

In his extraordinary vision.

The strange fine lines also disappeared.

Cheng Han folded the Spirit Map and put it in a leather box.

There are still several days of travel ahead, so there's no need to destroy this thing for now. In case of danger, the Spirit Map can still be useful.
