If people knew that Lin Hao was in the Qi training realm and had consumed ninety-nine Qi training pills just to break through a small realm, they would probably be horrified.

What a profound foundation one must have to achieve this!

A special aura rose from Lin Hao's body.

Immediately afterwards, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth within a radius of dozens of miles from Lingjian Sect began to flow towards Lingjian Sect frantically.

On the other side, Hun Lao, who was still guiding Zhang Aotian, also felt this horrifying scene.

"Has anyone in the depths of the Spirit Sword Sect broken through to the Heavenly Profound Realm?"

"Even if I were in my prime, I wouldn't be able to defeat someone in the Tianxuan realm who practices Tian-level or even higher-level techniques!"

"No wonder! Zhang Aotian is only a menial disciple despite his talent!"

"No wonder all the growth-enhancing equipment is garbage!"

…

As the spiritual energy of heaven and earth poured in, the aura around Lin Hao became more and more terrifying.

Time passed slowly, and this time the infusion of spiritual energy lasted for a full hour.

All the spiritual energy within dozens of miles of Lingjian Sect was absorbed by Lin Hao, and the entire land became desolate.

If someone were to tell people now that this is the location of the Lingjian Sect, probably no one would believe it.

This spiritual energy concentration is even lower than that of the Desolate Monster Land. It's really...

After the infusion of spiritual energy was completed, Lin Hao's cultivation level stabilized at the second level of Qi training.

Feeling the power in his body, Lin Hao felt that even the Dixuan Realm was just a younger brother in front of him!

"Ding! The sect senses the drying up of spiritual energy and offers you the Secret Realm Astrology Tower. At the same time, to solve the sect's spiritual energy problem, the sect has lured a king-level secret realm—the Nine-Nine Heavenly Ladder—not far from the Spirit Sword Sect."

"Ding! The Alchemy Pavilion has been inspired by you. The Alchemy Pavilion experience is +100, and the Alchemy Pavilion has been upgraded to level 2!"

"Ding! To celebrate the promotion of the Sect Master, the Spirit Beast Pavilion has successfully abducted a young phoenix for you!"

"The young phoenix is ​​on its way back to the clan."

[Secret Realm Astrology Tower] You can invest spirit stones to divine the location of the secret realm. The more spirit stones you invest, the higher the level of the secret realm you will divine!

Building: Alchemy Pavilion

Level: Level 2

Effect: Automatically refine level 2 and level 1 elixirs! (The higher the level of the elixir, the longer it takes to refine!)

Experience: 0/1000

At the same time, in the Wind Realm, which was unknown how far away from the Lingjian Sect, a small figure sneaked out from the Phoenix Realm.

The figure rushed towards a place that he remembered.

And the direction it was speeding in was the location of the Lingjian Sect.

Not long after the young phoenix left, a terrifying aura enveloped the entire Phoenix Realm.

"Phoenix Emperor! Why is the next Holy Son of our clan missing?"

Feeling the anger of the Phoenix Ancestor, all the phoenixes in the Phoenix Realm were trembling constantly.

The phoenix named Fenghuang was even more frightened.

"Listen up, people of the Profound Sky Continent! If anyone dares to harm the Holy Son of our Phoenix Clan, our Phoenix Clan will join the Demon Clan and invade together with them!"

The voice of Phoenix Ancestor resounded throughout the entire Tianxuan Continent.

The entire Tianxuan Continent became chaotic at this moment.

The Phoenix Saint had actually escaped from the Phoenix Realm! If it were to cause danger in the Profound Sky Continent, and if the Phoenix Clan joined the war between humans and demons, their race would be in danger!

…

"Ding! The sect feels the pressure from the strongest. In order to allow the sect to develop peacefully, the sect's shielding function is activated!"

[Sect Shield] The outside world cannot detect anything about the Lingjian Sect!

Looking at the Lingjian Sect with sparse spiritual energy, Lin Hao decided to take Zhang Aotian to the imperial secret realm to gain some experience!

"Ding! Your sect senses that you will be taking your disciples on a training journey, and has presented you with a [Training Gift Pack]!"

"Obtain the Sect Master's Ring!"

"Obtain the map of the secret realm of the Nine-Nine Ladders to Heaven!"

"Ding! The Equipment Refining Pavilion senses that you are about to undergo training, and has offered you 10 yellow-level magic weapons and 20 inferior magic weapons!"

"Ding! The Alchemy Pavilion senses that you are about to undergo training, and has offered you 10 Level 2 Pills and 20 Level 1 Pills!"

[Master's Ring] A magical space storage device with unlimited space inside, which can hold any inanimate objects!

[Nine-Nine Ladders to Heaven Secret Realm Map] marks all the core locations in the Nine-Nine Ladders to Heaven Secret Realm and how to enter the core areas!

…

Looking at his sect leader ring filled with gifts from the buildings, Lin Hao expressed his satisfaction.

These sect buildings have finally grown up!

After receiving these gifts, Lin Hao went directly to Zhang Aotian and flew out of Lingjian Sect with Zhang Aotian.

According to the location given by the sect, Lin Hao and his companions arrived in front of the king-level secret realm.

A dark vortex appeared before them, emitting a lot of spiritual energy.

Lin Hao stepped into the whirlpool, and Zhang Aotian followed closely behind.

As for the Lingjian Sect, Lin Hao believed that it would not be threatened because of its sect shielding system.

On the other side, Baili Shouer had also returned to the sect pavilion in Xuanshan City of the Yanhuang Dynasty.

As soon as he came back, he hurried to where his father was.

Baili Shoutian looked at his flustered son and scolded him.

"You're already a grown-up! Can't you be more steady in your actions? Also, what's with that wound on your forehead?"

Baili Shouer recounted the events one by one.

"A hidden sect?"

"If it really is a hidden sect, our Baili family might really be able to become the one in charge of the Xuanshan City Sect Pavilion!"

"You did well this time! Go downstairs and get a level three healing pill to treat your injuries!"

In the Xuanshan City Sect Pavilion, the Baili lineage and the Murong lineage are the two major main lineages, and they both want to become the person in power in this Punishment Pavilion.

Therefore, there are many open and secret struggles among them.

But before that, Baili Shoutian still had to send someone to check it out.

You can't make a mistake in the end.

Several masters of the Earth Profound Realm were sent by Baili Shoutian to the location of the Lingjian Sect.

On the other side, Lin Hao and his team had also entered the secret realm.

What caught their eyes was the ninety-nine golden steps hanging in the sky, and above the steps they could faintly see the shadows of buildings.

There was a strong spiritual energy all around them, which was much stronger than that of the Lingjian Sect.

So much spiritual energy made Lin Hao look happy.

Finally, I don’t have to worry about the sect’s spiritual energy!

However, now is not the time to practice. The most important thing is to gain control of the secret realm and master the entire secret realm.

Resisting the urge to sit cross-legged on the ground and practice, Lin Hao gave instructions to Zhang Aotian.

"Aotian! This secret realm of the Nine-Nine Ladders to Heaven is where the menial disciples of my Spirit Sword Sect are tested."

"You need to pass the Nine-Nine Ladders to Heaven and obtain the core of the secret realm. Only then will you be considered successful in this test!"

Hearing Lin Hao's words, Zhang Aotian took a step back and spoke to Lin Hao seriously.

"Yes! Disciple will definitely complete the test perfectly and live up to the Sect Master's trust!"
