After leaving Wang Yangshan, Lin Xiuyuan returned directly to his cave. He did not go to Wang Qiuhe to discuss the Dao or explore the Dao of Talismans, because she had already begun a semi-secluded state to make final preparations for breaking through to the Purple Mansion stage!
After returning to his cave, Lin Xiuyuan began preparing for the secret realm two years later.
I had originally planned to set aside some time to make talismans, since it was just a single duel and there was no need to prepare too much. Although I had accumulated over the past few years and had more than a hundred talismans, there were many different types. In a battle, things could change in an instant, and it was hard to predict which talismans I would use most often, so I could only prepare as many as possible.
However, given this existing base, I don't plan to dedicate too much time to ensuring the improvement of my cultivation level; that's the main priority.
However, the situation is somewhat different now.
The Hengyang Secret Realm has reappeared, and just like before, it is full of struggle, so it is natural to prepare more talismans.
Lin Xiuyuan planned to slow down his cultivation progress and focus on making talismans to accumulate more.
Putting aside cultivation for now, perhaps once we enter the secret realm, we can compete for rare and precious materials, absorb and refine them, which will make up for this shortcoming.
In the time that followed, Lin Xiuyuan stayed in his cave, constantly crafting talismans in preparation for his trip to the Hengyang Secret Realm, hoping to lay the foundation for his future opportunities in the Purple Mansion!
...
…………
"So that's how it is! That's the reason why the competition was canceled!"
"I originally thought it was the war between the righteous and the demonic forces spreading and forcing our Great Yue to split into factions. I was really shocked."
"It's pretty much the same now, but it's just that it's been affected by some factors and forced to open the Hengyang Secret Realm."
"But this news is undoubtedly the best for us disciples of this generation!"
"That's the Hengyang Secret Realm! One of the three great secret realms of our Great Yue cultivation world, the very heart of it!!!"
"It contains countless opportunities and rare medicinal herbs. To obtain even one or two of them would be an immense stroke of luck, bringing us the chance to advance to a higher realm."
"However, there aren't many spots available, so we need to try our best to get one. Even just getting the position of a follower would be enough..."
Throughout the main peak, countless disciples were eager to participate, and after learning the specific details, they were all filled with anticipation.
The initial worries have completely dissipated, replaced by an intense desire!
Originally, for this generation caught in the middle, there was no possibility of even dreaming of the three great secret realms. They could only hope that they might be able to get involved in such an opportunity after they were lucky enough to break through to the Purple Mansion stage.
But now it's started ahead of schedule!
This was an incredible opportunity that filled them with excitement.
The spiritual items produced in such secret realms are extremely valuable. Even though most of them must be handed over to the sect, obtaining just one or two is undoubtedly a great opportunity, capable of bringing one a chance to advance to a higher realm and pave a bright path to immortality!
However, the number of spots is a big problem!
Hengyang Secret Realm is a top-tier secret realm shared by the Great Yue, the Northwest Demonic Path, and the Nine Kingdoms Alliance. How many forces does each of them have under their command?
The Cloud Soaring Sect is just one of them!
It is rumored that the number of slots is at most only a few dozen.
On the main peak, there are countless geniuses, numbering no less than a thousand.
The entry requirements for these secret realms are generally limited to those at or above the late Foundation Establishment stage, with the exception of those with exceptional talent, who may be allowed up to the peak of the mid-Foundation Establishment stage.
In this way, half of the people have already been eliminated.
The remaining half of the population numbered in the hundreds.
Aside from the top talents within each lineage who can guarantee a spot, such as Lin Xiuyuan, Zhong Qian, and Wang Qiuhe, at least half of the spots are taken up here.
Because they are in their first breeding sequence!
There's no need to ask; you just need to tell the elder that you're willing to participate, and you'll automatically get a spot.
Because they are the most gifted, who else could they be given to if not them?
It's safe to say that hundreds of exceptional talents will be vying for a maximum of fifty spots among the remaining slots... This gives you an idea of just how fierce the competition will be.
At this point, the importance of qualifications and background becomes fully apparent.
Basically, only the most gifted geniuses are qualified to enter such a great opportunity.
But on the main peak, who isn't a prodigy and an elite?
Besides, one could either serve as a deputy, following the privileged disciples who had secured a spot, to compete for resources for the sect, although the benefits gained in this way were far less than those of disciples with a spot. However, the opportunities that could be found in such a secret realm were clearly more than enough.
However, these spots are not easy to obtain.
At this point, it's time to look at the background...
As a result, most of the disciples on the main peak appeared extremely busy, constantly taking out their communication jade talismans. They were either returning to their families, frequently making trips to the back mountain, or going to the Hall of Affairs…
Everyone was excited and thrilled about the opening of the Hengyang Secret Realm!
………
As time went by, two years passed in the blink of an eye!
Lin Xiuyuan walked out of the cave, his aura almost unchanged, and his face showed a deep weariness.
But there was a glimmer of hope in those tired eyes.
Lin Xiuyuan turned around and cast a spell to seal the formation and close the cave. He murmured, "I left enough resources this time. I think these Yin Spirit White Birds will be useful when I return."
As time has passed, there are now over a hundred Yin Spirit White Birds that have reached the Foundation Establishment stage. The other Yin Spirit White Birds have basically reached the edge of breaking through.
In the past two years, Lin Xiuyuan did not plan to improve his cultivation level. Instead, he focused on hoarding talismans. He then redistributed his resources and piled up several small mountains in the spirit beast room. This was enough for the group of Yin Spirit White Birds to digest for a long time. Under good circumstances, it would be enough for them to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage.
This trip to the Hengyang Secret Realm is so large that it's unlikely he'll be able to return anytime soon. But by the time he returns, this batch of Yin Spirit White Birds should be mostly at the Foundation Establishment stage. Even if some fail, there should still be at least several hundred, nearly a thousand, enough for his needs!
By the time he returns, he should be able to break through to the Purple Mansion stage...
