After Ling Ji and Mo Lin left, Chu Yu and the others carefully examined the empty hall. Apart from the ever-burning candlesticks around the hall, there was nothing else in the hall.

Before they could even take a good look around, they were all sucked in by a force. When they came to their senses, they were in a completely different place. The space they were in was a vast expanse of white, with no end in sight. The only thing in front of them was a set of steps that seemed to have no top, and the sun overhead was blindingly bright.

Gu Xi and the others stared intently at the only long staircase in this space. It seemed that this was the test of Wanxi Sword Dao and the inheritance of the Wanxi Sword Technique! He was determined to obtain it!

Hua and Chu Yu were also looking around. Hua really couldn't understand how Yi, a prominent figure in the Six Realms back then and a dignified Upper God, could be so...poor!

Yes, it's poor. I didn't feel it much when I first came in, but even after getting this far, I still haven't seen any treasures, let alone those rare treasures from back then. I haven't even seen anything of value. All I see are bare stones, empty halls, and long stone steps.

Of course, this sword formation also contains a rare treasure, namely the inheritance of the Wanxi Sword Dao. However, this is not so easy to obtain, and for Hua, it is just one of the many sword manuals she has ever seen.

I haven't heard any rumors about Senior Yi being poor, have I? So, where are his belongings? Were they all looted by those who entered the Hunyuan Secret Realm over the years?

If those who came in before knew about the plan they had put so much thought into, they would definitely protest their innocence. Apart from the rare and precious materials nourished by this space, many of them could hardly even find a bare stone with the aura of the Supreme God Yi, let alone take away any treasures belonging to the Supreme God Yi from here.

Compared to rare and precious materials, they would much rather obtain something imbued with the aura of the Supreme God, but there was nothing there!

Seeing Hua's slightly furrowed brows, Chu Yu almost immediately guessed what she was thinking. Ever since she decided to come to the Hunyuan Secret Realm, she had been pestering the two gods, Qingfeng and Xubing, to tell them a lot about the god Yi and the Hunyuan Secret Realm.

In particular, when the God of Qingfeng came to Hunyuan Secret Realm to work for him, he seized on Hua's weakness as a money-grubber, saying how rich the God of Qingfeng was back then, far more so than he was, making Hua think that Hunyuan Secret Realm was a place full of treasures.

You can comfort yourself by thinking that the best is yet to come, but now that you've come this far and haven't seen anything, how can you not feel frustrated!

The more Hua thought about it, the angrier she became. "Lord Qingfeng, you just wait! When I get back, I'll empty your treasure trove!" "Damn it, you tricked me!!!"

Only Hua had the mind to think about these things. Wan Ke and Gu Xi had already locked their eyes on the stone steps ahead. They watched as Chu Yu pulled Hua up first and followed closely behind.

As soon as I stepped onto the steps, I heard a series of sword cries, buzzing and extremely piercing! Fortunately, I reacted quickly, holding my mind and focusing my attention to continue forward. As I climbed higher, my soul was constantly stimulated, and I had no energy to check where I was.

Compared to Gu Xi and the others, Chu Yu's steps were much lighter. They had already passed the halfway point of the stone steps when Chu Yu stopped, turned around and looked at Gu Xi and Wan Ke, who were slightly behind, on the stone steps behind him, and reminded them: "That was just a small test in the selection of successors for Wanxi Sword Dao. What follows is the real test!"

The upcoming trials will test both the talent for swordsmanship and the character of the challengers. Every step is crucial; a single misstep could mean losing the chance to carry on the legacy of swordsmanship!

Gu Xi and Wan Ke, who had just caught up, exchanged a glance. They both understood that this was a competition between them. Chu Yu and Hua had already made their stance clear: they came to this Hunyuan Secret Realm only to obtain the Hunyuan Pearl, so...

They are partners traveling together, and now they are also rivals. They both know that they will give it their all!

With their minds clear, Chu Yu and Hua walked upwards. Hua touched the thing in her pocket; with it, she and Chu Yu easily reached the main hall at the end of the steps!

"Chu Yu, is this the place that the God of the Gentle Breeze is referring to?"

"If I remember correctly, that should be it."

"Hundreds of thousands of years have passed, is it really still there?" Hua asked as she took out the jade clasp that the God of Qingfeng had given her before she left, and placed it in the groove of the same shape. After a slight click, boom! The stone door opened.

"So many years have passed, and it still works!" Hua turned her head, her eyes widening slightly as she looked at Chu Yu.

"It seems that what the God of the Breeze said is very likely true!"

"Let's go in and we'll find out!"

As soon as they entered, the stone door closed. Chu Yu and Hua Du glanced back, but quickly turned away, not taking it to heart, as there was no danger.

Upon entering, one finds a very spacious stone chamber, comparable to a palace. However, there are no decorations here, only a high staircase leading to a huge stone chair engraved with intricate and strange runes.

Suddenly, a beam of light shone into the previously dim space, enveloping the entire stone chair! The runes on the chair seemed to come alive, and one could actually sense divinity emanating from it! Yes, divinity!

"Has the Divine Realm finally opened!?"

A deep and solemn voice rang out, echoing in the space for a while before dissipating. Hua and Chu Yu both looked at the chair.

“Isn’t the senior waiting for us? Why don’t you come out and meet us?” Chu Yu said slowly.

If he's willing to wait for hundreds of thousands of years, why wouldn't he come to see them?
