First Mountain Secret Realm

Lu Benwei’s gaze focused as he questioned coldly, “Why are you so sure?”

“To be honest, I’m on good terms with the monsters on the three mountains,” The three-tailed crocodile said, “I know almost all the monsters with faces. This three-headed dog is too obvious. If I had seen it before, I’d have seen it long ago.”

“Since you’re so sincere, I’ll spare your life.” Lu Benwei nodded.

As he spoke, he moved the mountain away from the Three-tailed Crocodile.

!!

The Three-tailed Crocodile thanked him again and asked, “Big brother, why are you looking for this monster?”

Lu Benwei pondered for a while and felt that there was no need to hide it from him.

“He took someone who was with me.”

Not long ago, Lu Benwei discovered that the old beggar had been taken away by a ferocious monster and had snuck into the first mountain. The monster looked exactly like the one with three dog heads.

“Big Brother, may I ask if this monster went into the first mountain? Are you going there as well?” The Three-tailed Crocodile shuddered.

“You don’t have to worry about this.” Lu Benwei scolded him coldly.

“Please listen to me. If this person isn’t important to you, you can abandon him.”

“What do you mean?” Lu Benwei frowned and asked.

“I just remembered that there’s a well in the first mountain. It’s called Hell’s Well. I suspect that this three-headed dog is very likely the legendary hellhound.”

Lu Benwei was stunned, and his mind was filled with thoughts. According to the old beggar, there was a well in the first mountain, also known as Hell’s Well.

He thought that the old beggar was bluffing. Now that the Three-tailed Crocodile said this, it proved that the old beggar was right.

“You’ve stayed in the Three Mountain Secret Realm for so long, haven’t you been there?”

The Three-tailed Crocodile said in fear and trepidation, “Big Brother, please calm down! To tell you the truth, other than me, almost all the monsters in the Three Mountain Secret Realm don’t have the guts to go to the peak.”

Scratching its head, the Three-tailed Crocodile said, “Even if some monsters were curious and entered a mountain, no one came out again. Therefore, we can be said to be very wary of the first mountain.”

Lu Benwei nodded and expressed his understanding.

Ferocious beasts, especially monsters, grew in the world. Their priority was to preserve their lives. In addition, it was not easy for the Three-tailed Crocodile to cultivate to such a level. It was very concerned about life and death.

“You said you’re on good terms with the monsters of the three mountains. Won’t they help you when they see you defeated?” Lu Benwei asked again.

The Three-tailed Crocodile shook its head like a rattle-drum. “Big Brother, I’m angry because you said this. We’re usually very close, like brothers. We say that we’ll share blessings and difficulties. But our battle has been going on for so long, and there’s no movement from their side at all. I knew it. I’ve made a group of fair-weather friends.”

Lu Benwei nodded and stopped pursuing the Three-tailed Crocodile.

“Alright, I have to hurry up and enter the first mountain. You can scram.”

Lu Benwei kicked him, sending him flying dozens of meters away.

Just as he was about to walk toward the first mountain, the Three-tailed Crocodile stopped him.

“Big Brother!”

“What’s the matter now?” Lu Benwei turned around.

“To be honest, I’m very curious about the human world, so I want to follow you.” The Three-tailed Crocodile chuckled.

Lu Benwei fell into deep thought.

The existence of the Blood Demon Monster caused Lu Benwei a lot of trouble. It probably would not work by adding in a Three-tailed Crocodile.

The Three-tailed Crocodile saw Lu Benwei’s hesitation and said nervously, “Big Brother, don’t worry. I can guarantee that I won’t disturb you humans.”

With that, the Three-tailed Crocodile returned to its original form, the size of a horse.

“Big Brother, didn’t you want to enter the first mountain? I’ve been living in the Three Mountains Secret Realm for many years, and I’ve learned about the legends of the first mountain. I’ll help you solve your problems then.”

Seeing how sincere the Three-tailed Crocodile was, Lu Benwei thought about it.

“Since you want to follow me, as long as you don’t violate my taboo, I can protect your life.”

“Good!”

The Three-tailed Crocodile’s head moved and landed on the mountain that Lu Benwei was heading toward.

Lu Benwei only realized when he got closer that the first mountain was a secret realm. To be precise, it was half a secret realm.

The birth of a secret realm, without exception, all evolved from the power of laws between heaven and earth. Moreover, at level 80 or 90, they could use the power of the laws of the world to create secret realms.

The First Mountain Secret Realm evolved naturally from the incomplete power of laws, so the entire first mountain was revealed between the mountains and rivers.

After entering the first mountain, the two of them immediately felt the power of laws, isolating them from the outside world. The impact of the battle between the two of them did not affect this place.

However, the size of the First Mountain Secret Realm was even larger than the second mountain and the third mountain combined. The mountain was majestic and covered in fog, spanning thousands of miles.

A gust of cold air seeped into their pores and scales from all directions, and they shivered almost at the same time.

The mountain was filled with a deathly aura. All the vegetation was withered, and their heads drooped. Not to mention spirit herbs, even ordinary herbs could not absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to survive.

“Let’s go to the peak.”

Lu Benwei patted the back of the Three-tailed Crocodile. The Three-tailed Crocodile responded and carried Lu Benwei to the top of the mountain.

Soon, the Three-tailed Crocodile stopped and looked at Lu Benwei nervously. Lu Benwei frowned and looked at the lifeless forest in the distance. A wisp of smoke was rising.

“Big Brother, what should I do?”

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of people came out in unison and surrounded Lu Benwei and the Three-tailed Crocodile.

“Fellow countrymen?”

“Monsters?”

The few people who came out looked at Lu Benwei and the Three-tailed Crocodile with uncertain expressions.

“Who are you? Why are you with a monster?” a muscular man with a bare upper body asked coldly.

...

Lu Benwei did not take him seriously. Instead, he stared at the two people behind the crowd.

The eldest son of the Qi family, Qi Ming, was united with the pearl of the Qi family. After thinking for a while, Lu Benwei was sure that this group of people were the bodyguards that the Qi siblings had hired.

Moreover, Lu Benwei was certain that the Qi siblings had never seen Lu Benwei when they were in Dragon City.

Therefore, Lu Benwei cleared his throat and said, “I’m from the Qi family of Tianjin. I haven’t seen the Qi siblings for a long time, so the Qi family head specially asked me to look for them in the Three Mountains Secret Realm. As for this monster, it’s just my war monster.”

Hearing this, everyone’s tense expressions suddenly relaxed. However, the Qi siblings were a little unhappy.

“The Qi family of Dragon City doesn’t need the Qi family of Tianjin to care about us.” Qi Mingzhu crossed her arms and said angrily to Lu Benwei.

“Be careful, I’ll pull out your teeth!”
