Tianmu Secret Realm!
This secret realm is a realm governed by rules.
Each time the Heavenly Wood Secret Realm opens, cultivators can obtain wood-attribute divine medicines and rule seeds.
therefore.
This secret realm is a very important one in the Flame Domain.
It should be noted that among all living beings, the Five Elements talent is the most common, followed by swords, knives, spears, axes, and so on.
Therefore, every time the Heavenly Wood Secret Realm opens, countless beings fight tooth and nail for a single spot.
Even beings whose natural talent is not 'wood' will choose to enter it.
Anyone with great confidence in their own strength will not miss an opportunity to enter a secret realm and search for divine medicines and seeds of rules.
These are all resources.
The Heavenly Wood Secret Realm opens once every ten thousand years.
Today is the day the Heavenly Wood Secret Realm opens, and there is still half an hour until the opening.
at this time.
At the entrance to the Heavenly Wood Secret Realm, eight hundred powerful figures were already waiting for the realm to open.
"Phew, as long as I obtain one divine herb of the rules, I can perfect my understanding of the rules of wood. I hope this trip will not be in vain!"
"The Divine Medicine of Rules, just one seed can be auctioned for seven low-grade divine veins, not to mention that just one Divine Medicine of Rules is enough for me to break through to the God Emperor realm."
"Hey, you guys go ahead and steal the magic potion of rules. All I need to do is find a seed."
...
These eight hundred powerful individuals had different thoughts, and even though they were all God-King level experts, they couldn't help but show expressions of excitement and anticipation.
One of the young men, with an arrogant expression, stood in mid-air, looking down at the powerful figures and said, "I need the Divine Medicine of Rules. Whoever obtains it may trade with me. I will not let you suffer any losses."
"If anyone obtains the divine medicine of the rules but chooses to conceal it, don't blame me for being impolite!"
The threat in his words was completely undisguised; the so-called transaction was nothing more than an attempt to force a sale.
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions turned solemn, but they were somewhat dismissive of it.
This person is a prodigy of the Tianyu Sect, but that's all there is to it. In reality, he hasn't fully grasped the rules yet, and at most, he possesses some rule-based artifacts.
They have nearly eight hundred powerful warriors, so they are not afraid of him.
All the powerful figures waited quietly for the Heavenly Wood Secret Realm to open.
but.
What they didn't know was...
The Tianmu Secret Realm, which has not yet been opened, has already attracted a guest.
Buzz!
In a secluded part of the Heavenly Wood Secret Realm, where towering ancient trees stand, the void silently opened, revealing a magnificent internal passage that connects to the unknown.
With a whoosh.
A figure passed through the passage and appeared in the Heavenly Wood Secret Realm.
It was Lu Tao.
With his ability to travel between two worlds, where can't he go?
It can connect the two realms, both the upper and lower realms, and even ignore the boundary walls, let alone enter a mere secret realm.
He doesn't need any quota to enter and exit the secret realm at will.
"The Heavenly Wood Secret Realm truly lives up to its reputation as a secret realm governed by the rules of wood. Just standing here, one can feel the activity of the rules of wood."
Lu Tao stood in the jungle and felt a sense of wonder.
He could clearly sense the active wood rules within the Heavenly Wood Secret Realm, and this highly active power of rules could also help cultivators comprehend the rules.
However, this kind of help is not significant.
Lu Tao used his immense divine soul power to scan the entire Heavenly Wood Secret Realm.
He discovered that the entire area within his divine soul was filled with towering ancient trees.
Each one is enormous; the smaller ones require three people to encircle them, while the larger ones are like pillars of heaven.
"Tsk tsk, under the rules of wood, even ordinary trees can grow to be tens of thousands of feet tall, it's simply outrageous!"
Lu Tao sighed.
He continued to scan the area, but he soon discovered that the entire secret realm was filled with various natural formations and rules that greatly hindered the spread of divine soul power.
This prevented Lu Tao from quickly finding the rule-based divine medicine and rule-based seeds.
In response to this.
Lu Tao was not surprised.
"The power of the divine soul cannot see too far, but that doesn't limit me. Open your Heavenly Eye!"
Lu Tao smiled faintly and instantly activated his Heavenly Eye, looking in all directions.
Instantly.
Lu Tao's vision could reach the far distance, and he could even see through many natural formations.
Unfortunately, due to the sheer number of formations and the influence of the power of the rules, even with Lu Tao's Heavenly Eye, he could not see the entire secret realm. He could only see some of the divine medicines and seeds of the rules.
He also saw many guardian beasts, all of which were quite powerful.
Lu Tao shook his head inwardly, "It seems I can't do it alone. Since that's the case..."
Buzz!
Lu Tao's figure vanished, as if he had never existed.
"All elders, assemble!"
Upon returning to the Great Thousand World, Lu Tao summoned the many elders.
"Greetings, Sect Master!"
A full thousand elders appeared before Lu Tao, including Wu Ming, Xiaotianquan, He Zongming, Kong Hao, and others, all of whom had reached the peak of the God King realm.
However, the demonic aura within his cultivation has not yet been fully refined.
Lu Tao looked at the elders and said, "I have entered the Heavenly Wood Secret Realm. There are divine medicines and seeds of rules in this secret realm. Go and dig them all up now, don't leave a single one behind!"
"Yes, Sect Master!"
The elders were all very excited, as they already knew the uses of the Rule Elixir and the Rule Seed.
With the sect leader's extraordinary comprehension, he was able to comprehend 1,500 rules in a short period of time. Now, more than 20 years later, he must have already comprehended the Chaos Rules.
Without a doubt, the magical medicine and seeds of rules they unearthed will ultimately be used on them.
They can use this to keep up with the sect leader's cultivation pace.
"The guardian beasts within the secret realm have also been completely eliminated."
Lu Tao assigned the task to his disciples and continued, "Also, remember not to be careless. Keep your respective rule artifacts safe. After the outside cultivators enter, do not hold back against those demons. Just leave some alive to enslave them for later use, and seal the rest."
Lu Tao paused for a moment before continuing, "Do not attack human cultivators lightly. Remember to hide yourselves well. If someone discovers you, there is no need to show mercy. You can kill or seal them. Also, if you encounter the Celestial Race, you can seal the two of you and bring them back."
"Yes, Sect Master!"
All the elders responded enthusiastically.
then.
Lu Tao then placed them into the Heavenly Wood Secret Realm.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
In an instant, the elders scattered and flew away in all directions from the Heavenly Wood Secret Realm.
Lu Tao naturally remained in the vast world.
At this moment, He Yuanshuang asked, "Husband, you specifically targeted the demons but chose to spare the human race. Is this to incite infighting among them?"
"Yes, the Divine Dynasty targets Ascended beings. Even the humans of the Divine Dynasty are not on the same side as us."
Lu Tao nodded and said, "But they are, after all, human. If we were to refine experience pills from their dantian and soul sea, we would feel somewhat uncomfortable taking them. In that case, it would be better to keep them."
Lu Tao continued, "If almost all the demons who entered the secret realm perished, leaving only the majority of the human race to survive, even if they explain to the outside world that the demons' demise had nothing to do with them, it will depend on whether the demons believe them."
"Perhaps such an incident occurring in one or two secret realms wouldn't cause any major conflicts, but what if it happened in ten or a hundred?"
Lu Tao smiled faintly, but his smile was somewhat cold.
It's not that Lu Tao is heartless.
As an ascendant, he could not possibly stand with the Divine Dynasty. Even towards the other humans in Yulongtian, Lu Tao could be ruthless enough to kill them.
Why?
This was because, according to the information Luo Xian had previously gathered, all those ascendants from the lower realm to the divine realm who were supposed to ascend to the divine realm were killed without exception.
After they ascended, they were mercilessly killed by the native divine beings who were waiting in the Ascension Pool.
Throughout history, countless billions of years have passed, and how many lives have been lost because of this?
Take the lower realm of the desolate region as an example.
The desolate region is vast, but compared to the various regions of Yulongtian, it appears extremely small. Even so, the lower realm is incredibly expansive, and there are a great many beings who have ascended to immortality.
On the Ganyu Continent alone, there were dozens of people who reached the peak of Martial God.
These martial gods at their peak have a very high probability of surviving the ascension tribulation and ascending to the divine realm.
Although other planets in the lower realm may not have as many Martial Gods at the Perfection stage as the Ganyu Continent, there are also quite a few planets with more Martial Gods at the Perfection stage than the Ganyu Continent.
How many planets are there in the lower realm?
The planets that Lu Tao chose to worship back then were all quite powerful, with a strength of at least 10,000 at the time, and tens of thousands more added later, and that number is still increasing now.
Excluding other weaker planets, there are over 100,000 powerful planets.
If there are 100,000 planets, and each planet has only ten Martial Gods at the Perfected Stage, that would still amount to a million Martial Gods at the Perfected Stage.
The lifespan of a Martial God in the lower realm is ten thousand years.
In other words...
Even in a smaller and more barren place like the Desolate Region, there have been over a million beings in the corresponding lower realm who have been able to transcend tribulations and ascend to immortality over the past ten thousand years.
Moreover, what about the lower realms corresponding to the other domains of Yulong Heaven?
It should be noted that Yulongtian possesses dozens of domains, and these domains, excluding the domain prisons, are larger and richer than places like the desolate domains.
This is only ten thousand years.
How many billions of years has the Divine Dynasty been established?
Lu Tao didn't know!
But he knew one thing: over the countless years, the number of ascended beings killed by Yu Longtian must have been astronomical.
This is only what's on the surface; what about what's happening behind the scenes?
Previously, one could ascend to immortality by reaching the peak of Martial King cultivation, but now, one must reach the peak of Martial God cultivation to undergo tribulation.
Such methods indirectly kill beings who had the potential to ascend, and the number must be even more terrifying.
If you say this isn't a trick of the Divine Dynasty, Lu Tao would never believe it, not even if you beat him to death.
Therefore.
Lu Tao would show no mercy to either the humans or the demons of Yulongtian.
He won't feel any psychological burden.
In fact, compared to his previous experiences in the demon and monster realms of the lower world, Lu Tao's heart is colder when facing the beings of Yulongtian.
otherwise.
How could Lu Tao easily incite internal strife within Yulongtian?
In this situation, the more chaotic Yulongtian is, the better Lu Tao can take advantage of the chaos to make a move and develop his strength.
His scheme was the same as when he first ascended to the desolate region.
only……
In the desolate region, he used the Demon Cat Clan to restrain the alliance of various races.
Meanwhile, in Yulongtian, he planned to instigate internal strife, specifically between the human and demon races.
Although the Divine Dynasty appears united in its efforts, primarily targeting those who have ascended to immortality, the divide between demons and humans has always existed and has never disappeared.
However, over the years, due to the pressure from the Heavenly Court and the Dao Palace, they have tacitly suppressed this estrangement as much as possible.
now.
Lu Tao was the fuse that ignited the explosion for them.
With Yulongtian in chaos, Tianyu Sect, as the master of Yulongtian, naturally could not sit idly by.
Then they will have much less energy to focus on Lu Tao.
This is Lu Tao's plan.
This plan seems simple, but it is actually not easy to implement. Just entering various secret realms to kill demons without being discovered is extremely difficult.
But the irony is that Lu Tao possesses the ability to travel between two realms, essentially a portal that allows him to freely traverse various secret realms.
Coupled with the formidable strength of the Immortal Sect disciples, achieving this was not difficult.
Hearing Lu Tao's words, He Yuanshuang nodded and said, "Yes, the Divine Dynasty's attitude towards ascendants is too terrible. Over the years, they have slaughtered countless lives, so it is their own fault for falling into internal strife."
He Yuanshuang fully approved of her husband's plan, and was even somewhat indignant.
If someone unaware of Lu Tao's plan knew about it, they might think he was extremely malicious.
But He Yuanshuang wouldn't!
Whenever she thought of all the creatures in the domain prisons, slaughtered and kept by the Tianyu Sect, and countless gods from the lower realms who had just survived their tribulations and ascended to heaven with hopes for a more glorious future, only to be ruthlessly murdered.
He Yuanshuang felt that whether it was the Heavenly Universe Sect or the Jade Dragon Heaven's God Kings and God Emperors who were killed, they all deserved it.
No one could do it before, but now I'll let my husband do it.
Lu Tao looked at He Yuanshuang, who was furious, and smiled knowingly.
He was naturally very happy to have his wife's support.
At this moment.
Luo Xian spoke up, "Sect Master, do you need us to take action?"
The six people, including Luo Xian, seemed eager to try.
Lu Tao shook his head and said, "No need. The Heavenly Wood Secret Realm has cultivation restrictions; only God Kings can enter at most, so you don't need to go."
"yes!"
All six of them, including Luo Xian, felt a little regretful.
Seeing this, Lu Tao shook his head and chuckled, "Don't worry, your time to make a move will come!"
then.
Lu Tao's expression turned serious, and he continued, "You should continue your cultivation. Although you now possess the cultivation of a perfected God Emperor, the world has only just undergone a transformation, and the power of the world is weak. The support for the rules is not significant, and the improvement in strength is limited. Let alone facing opponents of the same level, even if you face a mid-stage God Emperor, I'm afraid you might not be able to defeat them."
"Yes, Sect Master!"
Luo Xian and the other six also became serious.
They were all aware of their weaknesses. Their inner energy and divine energy had indeed improved rapidly, but the world was still in a state of transformation. Although they still possessed the power of the world, their combat strength had also been qualitatively improved compared to before.
However, compared to other products in the same category, it has absolutely no advantage.
Even a disadvantage.
As the sect leader said, even they might not be able to gain the upper hand against those mid-stage God Emperors who possessed abundant world power.
The six immediately returned to continue their cultivation.
——
"This is the Divine Elixir of Rules? The aura of rules is so strong!"
In a certain part of the Heavenly Wood Secret Realm, Wu Ming saw a small sapling in the distance. The sapling looked no different from an ordinary sapling, but it exuded an extremely rich aura of the rules of wood.
and.
It appears tiny, only the size of a palm.
However, the ancient trees nearby are all far away; there are no ancient trees within a hundred miles, let alone other flowers and plants.
Looking at the sapling, Wu Ming thought to himself, "If I were to swallow this divine herb of rules whole, I would probably be able to comprehend the rules of wood to the point of mastery, or even complete mastery. There isn't even a single one of these in the desolate region."
Thinking of this, Wu Ming couldn't help but shake his head.
Yu Longtian, or rather Tianyu Sect, went too far.
Not only did they prevent the creatures of the desolate region from breaking through to the God Emperor level, causing them to die of old age due to the influence of lifespan, but they also robbed the desolate region of all its rule-based secret realms and rule-based divine medicines, leaving nothing behind.
and.
They also erased all traces of the incident, keeping it a secret from the creatures of the wasteland.
The creatures of the desolate region had no idea that there were such things as divine medicines of rules and seeds of rules.
laugh!
Wu Ming silently approached the Divine Medicine of Rules. Suddenly, he attacked the sapling next to it, unleashing a powerful sword technique that cleaved a divine beast in two.
"roar!"
The mythical beast roared like a toad, but in the next instant, Wu Ming pressed his palm down on its head.
With a soft "pfft".
Its skull was crushed, and its soul was controlled.
final.
Wu Ming easily sealed the divine beast, carefully storing its dantian and soul sea, and then carefully prepared to dig up the rule sapling.
Buzz!
Suddenly, the moment Wu Ming approached the rule sapling, as the sapling swayed slightly, a piece of wood rule, like tree powder, rapidly drifted towards Wu Ming.
"Huh? The intelligence of the Rule-based Divine Medicine is not weak."
Wu Ming let out a soft exclamation, but he wasn't afraid. With a thought, a Dragon Transformation Bell appeared and enveloped him.
When the rules of wood fall upon the Dragon Transformation Bell, they are directly absorbed by it.
The Dragon Transformation Bell didn't even budge.
It seemed that no power was being sensed.
With the Dragon Transformation Bell atop his head, Wu Ming approached the sapling with a solemn expression. He then used his divine soul to control his inner energy, transforming it into a shovel, and carefully began digging.
result……
Without any further resistance, the sapling was easily dug out by him.
Wu Ming felt rather embarrassed, realizing he had been overly cautious.
But he has no intention of changing.
It's always better to be cautious than careless; that's what he learned from his brother, Tao.
"Got it!"
Wu Ming sealed it, placed it in a wooden box, and put it into his cave.
Next.
Wu Ming wiped away the traces of the battle and continued to use his divine soul power, combined with his Heavenly Eye, to scan and search for the divine medicine and seed of rules.
At this moment, not only him, but also the other elders of the Immortal Sect felt the same way.
The Heavenly Wood Secret Realm is vast, but with the search of a thousand perfected God Kings, even the most deeply hidden divine medicines and seeds of rules were all found.
This was already a secret realm at the God-King level, so the resistance of these divine medicines based on the rules could be easily resolved by the elders of the Immortal Sect.
That is, the elders who do not have the Dragon Transformation Artifact will have a slightly more troublesome time.
But there were only a few.
They all possess their own defensive divine artifacts and powerful supernatural abilities, making it extremely easy for them to extract divine medicines based on rules.
Even the divine beasts next to the legendary medicine were easily killed.
that's all.
All the divine medicines, seeds, and even other divine medicines in the entire Tianmu Secret Realm were found and collected by the elders of the Immortal Sect.
Not a single plant was left.
The same applies to the mythical beasts.
Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye—
Buzz!
Suddenly, a slight tremor emanated from the void throughout the entire Tianmu Secret Realm.
Then, powerful figures suddenly descended upon the secret realm.
The eight hundred figures exchanged glances and then dispersed in perfect unison, flying towards the depths of the secret realm.
"Hmph, you can dig all you want, it's all mine!"
The arrogant young man from Tianyu Sect sneered inwardly. He first left quickly, but after seeing that all the other God Kings had left, he returned to the exit and began to set up an array on the spot.
Seeing this, the celestial hound in the shadows couldn't help but show a strange expression, "Here comes the scapegoat!"
The Celestial Hound grinned and immediately took out a recording stone to capture the scene.
The arrogant young man, who was ready to reap the benefits without lifting a finger, was completely unaware of all this.
After recording, Xiaotianquan left without lingering.
——
laugh!
Somewhere in the secret realm, a figure cautiously advanced. It was an old wolf. It passed through one natural formation after another, and once again, it entered another formation.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, it sensed that something was wrong.
After passing through the previous natural formation, it did not feel anything else, such as danger, oppression, or discomfort.
But this time, it sensed something was wrong within the formation.
A very dangerous feeling.
Its subconscious instinct was to summon a defensive artifact to protect itself, but as soon as the thought crossed its mind, it felt a jolt in its soul.
Then, marks were placed on its soul, as if to enslave it.
"Don't even think about it!"
The old wolf naturally resisted fiercely, but was ultimately enslaved.
"Greetings, my Lord!"
The old wolf regained his composure and looked at the suddenly appearing Howling Celestial Dog with a fawning smile on his face.
The Celestial Hound smiled with satisfaction, then tossed the recording stone to the old wolf and instructed, "Be careful, don't get killed by that young man. Once we leave the Heavenly Wood Secret Realm, find an opportunity to secretly send out the image."
The old wolf hurriedly replied, "Yes, this old servant will certainly do this well!"
The Celestial Hound nodded silently, then turned and disappeared.
This scene also played out in other parts of the Tianmu Secret Realm.
However, those who were enslaved were a minority; most were killed by the elders of the Immortal Sect.
final.
All 630 god-king demons were killed or sealed by the elders of the Immortal Sect. Their dantian, soul sea, and even their divine souls were all sealed and taken away.
They disappeared without a trace, without causing any commotion.
As for those human powerhouses, they traversed countless distances but did not find a single divine medicine of the rules, let alone a divine medicine of the rules, not even a single seed of the rules.
But they didn't think much of it and continued their arduous search.
Once the secret realm opens, it will remain open for half a month before closing, giving them plenty of time to search.
pity.
Their efforts were destined to be in vain.
"How was the harvest?"
In the vast world, Lu Tao has already taken back all the elders of the Immortal Sect.
Wu Ming immediately said, "Brother Tao, I dug up a divine herb of rules and found two seeds of rules."
"Boss, I only got one herb of the Laws, but I didn't find the seeds of the Laws."
"Sect Master, I only obtained one rule seed."
"Sect Master, I...I didn't find anything."
...
Everyone chattered about their gains, but they didn't mention other divine medicines, divine beasts, or slaying demons. They only talked about the divine medicines and seeds of rules they had obtained.
Lu Tao did some statistics.
There are a total of 21 plants of the Divine Herb and 53 seeds of the Divine Herb.
It was a very fruitful experience.
Lu Tao nodded in satisfaction and said, "Not bad, not bad, quite a harvest. The other elders who did not obtain the Divine Medicine of Rules and the Seed of Rules need not feel guilty, as there are many other Secret Realms of Rules besides this one."
"Yes, Sect Master!"
Upon hearing this, everyone felt much better.
"Let's go to another secret realm!"
Lu Tao left the Great Thousand Worlds directly and used the Interdimensional Connection once again within the natural formation.
The next moment.
Lu Tao then disappeared inside.
