Inside the cave.
Shen Lian sat cross-legged and practiced. Colorful spiritual light lingered around him. Wisps of breath formed cyclones around him. Occasionally, black and white secret lights appeared. He was completely immersed in it.
He didn't think too much about Qian Dai's choice. The fat man was a man of his own ideas. He had said everything he could say. It was Qian Dai's own choice whether to go or not.
His current location is five thousand miles away from the secret realm. The Merit Clone had already sneaked into the vicinity of the secret realm to observe. If there is any movement, he will know it immediately.
Outside the secret realm.
Qian Dai pondered Shen Lian's words, with some hesitation on his face.
He fished out quite a few treasures from the secret realm, even three fourth-level corpses. For the Xuanshi Sect today, this was a timely help.
As for danger, there is no such thing as danger in cultivating immortals. You may encounter cultivators who are trying to rob you when you are traveling casually. If you want to be safe, just hide in the cave and don't come out.
Not to mention, there are rumors in the world of immortal cultivation that in a certain era, an old ancestor in the Nascent Soul stage was practicing in seclusion and was killed by a meteorite falling from the sky.
Danger is always around us like the wind, and it is not easy for monks like us to survive.
After squinting his eyes and staring at the cave for a long time, Qian Dai made a decision in his heart.
Brother Lu is right.
He didn't know how dangerous the secret realm was, but he understood how much Brother Lu valued his life.
The fact that people who lack resources for cultivation have not come to the secret realm is enough to prove that there are big problems here.
…
"The entrance to the secret realm has stabilized."
More than half a year passed, and then a Nascent Soul cultivator shouted loudly, and all the cultivators' eyes fell on the huge black water vortex.
Then I saw the shattered space fragments slowly falling back and starting to stick together. The fragmented space fragments were flashing silver light.
After a few breaths, the spiritual ships and spiritual treasures floating in the surrounding void disappeared, and were replaced by standing monks, their eyes fixed on the entrance to the secret realm.
However, no one moved. There were dozens of Nascent Soul cultivators here, coming from different forces, not counting the hidden cultivators. No one wanted to be the first to stand out.
Although no one forced their way into the entrance, many monks approached the entrance and began to check the space fragments that had been stabilized again.
“Crack.”
As soon as the Yuanying's aura touched the space fragments, a sound was heard, and the sharp aura even cut bloody marks on the palms of some Yuanyings.
The seemingly stable overlapping space fragments were filled with violent sharp power, which made the Nascent Soul cultivators present change their expressions.
After discovering the danger at the entrance, the monks from all parties and factions had flickering expressions on their faces and kept looking at the monks from other forces. It was obvious that they had no good intentions.
The look in their eyes showed that they all wanted to encourage others to go first, and they all became humble model workers in the world of immortal cultivation.
At the entrance that stretched for hundreds of miles, the space suddenly flashed with silver light. Looking around, the layers of space fragments broke, and a ball of colorful light suddenly lit up in the collapsed area.
This color is red, yellow and blue. The three energies are like fish swimming around, forming a round ball of light, emitting a dazzling spiritual light.
The dazzling spiritual light attracted the attention of the monks present.
"The Three Treasures of Tianluo!"
"Everyone, let me help you explore the way!"
At the moment when the three-colored spiritual light flashed, a hearty laugh rang out, and a sea cultivator dressed in colorful feather clothes, who looked like a spotted bear, rushed into the secret realm first.
This is the Yuanying Master Guchi of the Sea Clan. His tribe is one of the three strongest tribes of the Sea Clan in the East China Sea region. He dared to take action because of his strength in the late Yuanying stage.
In addition to Master Guchi, four other figures also took action.
However, closely following behind him was a cultivator who was wrapped in strong demonic energy and stepped on two soul wheels made up of souls. With the support of countless souls, the speed of the Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Souls was extremely fast.
"The Three Treasures of Tianluo belong to this demon."
Seeing that Gu Chi and Wan Hun were about to approach the Three Treasures of Tianluo, the Zhenjun monk who followed behind them launched his ancestral skills in unison, and a big fight of "If I can't get it, you can't get it either" was launched.
The three subsequent True Lords either used their hands to cast spells or summoned magical treasures, and blasted towards the position of the Three Treasures of Tianluo in front.
The space here is weak, and with three late Nascent Soul cultivators attacking one after another, one can imagine what the result will be.
The Wanhun Demon Lord, who arrived later than the others, was about to capture the Three Treasures of Tianluo. However, he felt the terrifying magical energy behind him and his whole body seemed to be leaking air. Endless demonic energy began to spew out from his pores, forming a defensive light shield made of black bats.
The Three Treasures of Tianluo are fourth-order top-grade spiritual objects, which are nurtured by heaven and earth. Their function is to replenish and enhance the spirit of cultivators. It is a luxury for cultivators in the late Nascent Soul stage to use this object.
It is mainly used by cultivators who have reached the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul Stage, so that they can be one step closer to the Spiritual Transformation Stage.
Seeing that he was only a few miles away from catching the Three Treasures of Tianluo, a long river attacked from the side and blasted through the bat defense of the Demon Lord Wanhun. In a quick glance, he saw the sneer of the sea cultivator Gu Chi.
However, there was no need for the Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Souls to fight back, as the surrounding space had completely collapsed, completely submerging the two of them.
Several great monks in the late Nascent Soul stage took action, and the space that had been stabilized with great difficulty stretched out again, causing the monks in the middle and early Nascent Soul stages to retreat one after another.
The three Tianluo treasures that had just appeared were also washed away to an unknown place by the broken space.
After the space was shattered, a long and narrow space crack appeared at the entrance. A billowing aura of resentment emerged from the crack, and a huge black water lake could be seen roiling inside.
"The true entrance to the secret realm has appeared."
“Boom!”
At this time, the spiritual cultivator Sanxuan Zhenjun waved his hand, blocked the nearby space debris outside his body, and rushed towards the narrow crack.
Many cultivators stared at the True Lord Sanxuan. Although the narrow crack was vibrating, it did not cause much impact.
After seeing this change, the remaining monks could no longer hold back.
Before even entering, fourth-grade top-grade spiritual objects such as the Three Treasures of Tianluo were revealed. There must be even more treasures in the secret realm.
Not to mention, the Three Treasures of Tianluo were not snatched away by the great monk, and they were obviously sunk back into the secret realm. What if I encounter them after entering?
For a moment, several monks became so confident.
whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.
After a moment, streams of light rolled up and rushed into the secret realm.
Qian Dai, who was controlling the female corpse, was among them, but he was the last one to move. After everything around him became calm, a black cloud merged with the resentful energy that was lingering around and floated away from the entrance.
A quarter of an hour later, a buzzing sound was heard at the long and narrow entrance. Just as the crack was about to close, the sound of breaking air was heard again in the quiet surroundings, and several figures who were hesitantly wandering outside also rushed in.
The space crack healed with a humming sound, and the surroundings gradually calmed down.
At this moment, Qian Dai's expression changed as he looked at the disappearing entrance to the secret realm.
The entrance to the secret realm has never disappeared before.
"Brother Lu is indeed my lucky star."
…
Time passes quietly.
The clone of merit guarded outside the secret realm. He didn't need to practice. He just kept watch and relieved the resentment at the same time.
Even if one has a place of merit, it still feels a little slow. One person gathers resentment while another person relieves it, which makes one a worker for the Heaven's Way.
Shen Lian thought about it again and again and decided that he still wanted to be the local landlord.
It's a bit of a waste for the Butian Sect members to just deliver some spiritual objects. It's a bit of a waste of talent for such a big figure to just do this little work.
However, in order to maintain stability, when recruiting members for the Butian Sect, they only recruited people from small sects or independent cultivators. These people numbered over a hundred but were not a significant force. Up to now, not a single one of them has advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, and several of them have died.
In other words, even if the Jindan cultivators emptied all of them, how much would they get? They had to start recruiting Yuanying-level Bu Tian sect members. Not only that, they had to consider recruiting large sect cultivators into the Bu Tian sect, so that they could gain greater benefits.
However, if you want to do this, the risks are huge and you must be extremely careful.
But thinking about the benefits, Shen Lian couldn't help but feel a little longing.
"Since the Tiannan Continent is in such a mess, why not give it a try? If it works, we can book the entire Hongyanfang. If it fails, we can run away."
"I remember Senior Brother Cheap Zhou said that the Tiannan Immortal Cultivation World is tough, which makes the cultivators stationed outside a little cautious. We can start from this aspect."
"Tianyuan, Chixiao, but these big sects have been passed down for tens of thousands of years, and there are a lot of old foxes. If you want to fool them... No... Leading them requires extreme caution."
"...Hey...the big sects are also short of elixirs, high-level spiritual treasures, and talismans. It is better to be driven by profit than by conspiracy and trickery. Who can not care about his own path?"
For a long time, Shen Lian had neglected his greatest asset, that is, being a fourth-rank master craftsman. How many pills and talismans had he refined for himself over the years?
I have such skills, but I haven't used them at all.
Don’t cultivators who have reached the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul take medicinal pills?
Would a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage mind having an extra fourth-grade high-quality spiritual treasure? Although spiritual medicine materials are scarce, there is no shortage of mineral materials at present. He can use spiritual treasures to exchange spiritual medicines and refine them into spiritual pills. I don't believe that a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage will not be tempted.
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious. This matter should at least wait until I advance to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. This way, even if I can't beat the Nascent Soul Great Perfection, I will have the power to protect myself."
"Also, if I want to refine fourth-grade high-quality elixirs and spiritual treasures, I don't have enough enlightenment points yet. I'd better take advantage of this period of time to accumulate some."
…
Half a year later.
In the secret realm with the entrance sealed off, a burst of black energy suddenly shook violently.
In an instant, two adjacent pieces of land were overturned by terrifying energy, and the outline of a huge secret realm filled with terrifying resentment appeared.
Only a part of the secret realm's outline was exposed at the top, which was more than two thousand miles in radius. The surrounding void was directly shattered by the impact of the outline.
Snap!
The sound of shattering continued to be heard, and the round outline shook violently, revealing a narrow crack as long as an eye. Rolling black air rushed up into the sky, carrying with it countless resentments.
For a moment, the sounds of ghosts crying and wolves howling resounded throughout the world.
"Heaven and earth are filled with sorrow, I am back!"
