"Senior, what happened?" Wang Ming asked when he saw Bao Yuanzi become serious.

"Indeed, I think the Lord of the Demon Realm is about to break free from the seal."

"So fast!"

"Indeed, young friend, speaking of which, this matter is also related to you."

"Uh, it's related to me, senior. What do you mean by that?"

"Because of the war between the continents here, you seized the capitals of all the foreign states, which led to their invasion by the Demon Realm. Once their continents fall into the Demon Realm, the power of the Demon Realm Lord will also increase due to the expansion of the Demon Realm."

"Then we will be able to escape the Demon-Sealing Array."

"This..." Wang Ming hadn't expected that his conquest of the royal capitals of the other major regions would have this consequence.

"Tomorrow, the Demon Realm will invade other continents. The national strength of these other continents is weakened and they will certainly not be able to stop the Demon Realm's army. I think the Demon Realm's lord will break free within three days."

"The Lord of the Demon Realm is a powerful being who has survived since ancient times. Even in ancient times, when the eight great immortal sects joined forces, they could only seal him away in the end."

"Once he breaks free, with our strength, we will probably be even more unable to resist, and the entire Yuan Domain world will be enslaved by the Demon Realm."

"So, the reason I asked Feiyan to come here this time is that I want you to go to the same place as Feiyan so that you can help Feiyan improve her strength as soon as possible."

"You are the successor of the Fist Immortal Sect, and you also possess the only super artifact in the entire Yuan Domain Continent. Your speed in killing monsters is much faster than Fei Yan's. With your help, I believe Fei Yan will definitely be able to reach the True Immortal Realm before the Demon Lord escapes."

"If Feiyan reaches the True Immortal Realm and joins forces with me, we might be able to fight against the Lord of the Demon Realm."

"Master, I don't want this person with me. I can go by myself."

"Feiyan, stop fooling around. At your monster-killing speed, it will probably take you another 3 months to break through to the True Immortal Realm. And let alone 3 months, I can't even wait 1 month, and neither can our Yuanyu Empire."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Feiyan no longer refused, but it was easy to tell from her expression that she was very unhappy.

“Senior, the Yuan Domain and our world share the same fate, and we share the same fate. I am willing to help the Empress break through to the True Immortal Realm.”

"good."

"This is a fragment of a godhood. You conquered the imperial cities of other continents during this national war, so you must have one of these in your possession. This is for you."

"A fragment of divine essence!" Wang Ming received the fragment of divine essence, his heart filled with excitement. This was the very thing Wang Ming had come to the palace for.

"Feiyan, it's your turn."

"Yes, Master." The Empress summoned a pre-prepared imperial edict and handed it to Wang Ming.

"System notification: You have been bestowed the title of Marshal of the Yuanyu Empire by the Empress."

Marshal of the Yuanyu Empire (Unique, Orange)

Grade: Top Quality

Effect: Increases the character's all base attributes, attack power, and defense power by 100%. When killing monsters to gain merit points, an additional 2000% merit points are gained.

Note: Once worn, this item will also have an effect in the real world.

...

"Holy crap, a unique orange title that works in the real world too! This is amazing!" Wang Ming immediately put it on, and his character attributes surged again.

"Alright, let's not delay any longer, you should set off now."

"System notification: The Empress invites you to join her team. Do you accept?"

"accept."

Seeing that the two were ready, Bao Yuanzi produced a compass in his hand, which flew into the air, and then a teleportation portal appeared.

"This place is an ancient secret realm. You two remember that this compass can only last for a maximum of 3 days. You need to call me within 3 days, and I will activate the teleportation array again to bring you back."

"You have three days. Whether or not Feiyan has advanced to the True Immortal Realm, you must leave the Ancient Secret Realm. Otherwise, you will be trapped there forever."

The Empress had clearly been to this ancient secret realm before. She nodded solemnly and then entered the teleportation array.

Seeing this, Wang Ming followed.

"Feiyan, I hope you can advance to the True Immortal Realm within 3 days."

"System notification: You have entered an ancient secret realm. This place is extremely dangerous. Please proceed with caution."

Even without system prompts, Wang Ming knew this place was not simple.

As soon as Wang Ming and the Empress entered the area, a group of monsters at level 90 or above rushed towards them. The Empress had obviously anticipated this, and she drew her longsword and charged forward.

"Tsk tsk, this Empress really doesn't hold back when it comes to killing monsters." Wang Ming didn't attack immediately, but looked at the Empress with surprise. Then he opened his backpack and selected the Divine Spark Fragment.

"System notification: You are synthesizing a divine fragment."

"System notification: Divine fragment synthesis successful, you have obtained Divine*1."

Divinity (Special Item)

Grade: God-level

Description: This item contains divine essence. Using it can replenish the five elements of a divine beast pet, allowing it to advance to the level of a super divine beast.

...

"Upgraded to a Super Divine Beast!" Wang Ming looked at the item with some excitement.

Wang Ming possessed a high-level pet fusion stone, which could fuse divine beast pets, though the probability was extremely low. Now, this divine spark could allow a divine beast to directly advance to a super divine beast, how could Wang Ming not be excited!

"I have two divine beasts. Should I promote the Hellhound or the Golden Light Sky-Facing Hou?" Wang Ming was a little conflicted. After much consideration, he decided to promote the Hellhound.

Summoning the Cerberus, Wang Ming tossed the divine spark to it. The Cerberus seemed to know what the divine spark was. After opening its mouth to take the divine spark, it did not immediately devour it, but instead lowered its nine heads to worship Wang Ming.

"Eat up, I'm really looking forward to seeing what your attribute will be when you advance to Super Divine Beast."

"Roar~!" The nine-headed hellhound roared and swallowed the god into its belly.

After consuming the divine essence, Cerberus emitted a burst of golden light. Then, a bulge grew on Cerberus's neck, which grew larger and larger until it transformed into its tenth head!

But that wasn't all. After the tenth head appeared, a single horn began to appear on each head, with the tip of the horn shrouded in ghostly mist, flickering between light and shadow.

"Hmph, this form is really annoying, I don't like it, change again!" A child's voice came, and the form of the Cerberus continued to shrink until finally a little girl with wings appeared in front of Wang Ming.

This girl is about 1 meter tall, has a mischievous and cute appearance, and has two transparent wings on her back.

"Cute? Cute baby?!"
