Chapter 515: Strange Movements in the Secret Realm
The dean returned the crystal token to Huang Rongyu, put his hands behind his back, and slowly walked towards the courtyard. Then he took a deep breath and said, "In fact, the Eight Desolate Divine Realm has always been jointly protected by the three hidden families."
“At the time when you participated in the Trial Month, strange movements came from the Eight Desolate Divine Realm, and exquisite colorful light appeared—and this exquisite colorful light only appears when the Nine Divine Artifacts appear.”
Upon hearing this, everyone understood—this grand gathering in Cangzhou, seemingly a training trip, was actually a quest to find a divine artifact!
"However, no cultivator would want to possess a divine artifact, so why would a reclusive family be willing to release the news?" Xie Qingui grasped a key point.
The dean smiled and slowly walked up to everyone: "Do you know why the final reward of the Spirit Master Exchange Conference is an entry quota to the Eight Desolate Divine Realm?"
"Actually, it's because only cultivators with dual spiritual roots can unlock the Eight Desolate Divine Realm, and the news that Rong Yu possessed dual spiritual roots had already reached the reclusive families—"
"Taking this opportunity, the reclusive family personally stepped forward and set the final reward of this year's Spirit Master Exchange Conference as a competition for a spot. On the one hand, this was to test whether Rong Yu was qualified to compete for a spot."
On the other hand, it's because none of the three reclusive families have ever produced a dual-spiritual-root holder. The Eight Desolate Divine Realm opened once before, and I was fortunate enough to enter then, but this time it's been a century since the last opening… Now there are unusual movements within the Eight Desolate Divine Realm, resembling the appearance of a divine artifact, so the reclusive families naturally won't let go of the opportunity to open the Eight Desolate Divine Realm again.”
The dean chuckled mischievously as he spoke, "But the hidden families probably don't know yet that Rong Yu isn't the only one with dual spiritual roots these days..."
Their three great families have never produced a person with dual spiritual roots, but the younger generation from the Eastern Continent has produced three in one go! They must be furious!
After listening to the dean's words, Yun Fusang, who had been silent all along, suddenly said, "What if Rong Yu doesn't get a spot, and the Eight Desolate Divine Realm still can't be opened? Wouldn't that be tantamount to deception?"
The dean shrugged: "If we don't get a spot, we'll just pretend the final reward never existed... Even if we wanted to cause them trouble, it would be impossible."
"After all, putting aside how many powerful experts are behind them, it is still very difficult to find the center of a hidden family in this vast world - they are a 'hidden' family."
Yu Muhan realized: "So the reason we were able to enter the Eight Desolate Divine Realm was because of Xiao Fei, Rong Yu, and Yan Ziming..."
The dean smiled and said, "That's right! Thanks to the three of you, the Eight Desolate Divine Realm had a chance to open! Otherwise, if a dual-spiritual-root holder had not appeared, the three hidden families would have been able to guard this secret realm that they might never be able to enter again."
Ye Fei and Huang Rongyu exchanged a glance, and saw a hint of a smile in each other's eyes.
Mu Jingshen pondered for a moment, then asked, "Why can only those with dual spiritual roots unlock the Eight Desolate Divine Realm?"
Dean: "It is said that it is because the Mirror Palace God Lord is a dual spiritual root holder, and the Eight Desolate Divine Realm was formed from a wisp of his remnant soul... Perhaps some things are predetermined in the dark, and the three hidden families can only abide by the rules."
"There is another matter. In addition to the fifty of you juniors who have been selected, the three hidden families will also send juniors of similar age to you to enter the Eight Desolate Divine Realm. It is estimated that there will be over a hundred people. Let's leave aside the matter of the divine artifact for now. The challenges you will face later will be even more severe."
