Just then, the entrance to the Divine Source Secret Realm gradually became lively, with geniuses and prodigies from various forces pouring out like a tide. In just a short while, nearly all of the hundreds of thousands of geniuses and prodigies had appeared and were quickly heading towards the locations of their respective forces.
However, every prodigy who stepped out of the secret realm first looked towards the entrance of the Divine Source Secret Realm with a look of surprise and uncertainty.
It turned out that due to the earth-shattering battle that Yuan Xun and the others had just fought here, the Divine Source Secret Realm, which was originally located above the sea, had undergone earth-shattering changes. The originally surging seawater was completely evaporated by the terrifying energy impact of their fierce battle, and the land that was originally hidden underwater was exposed.
Moreover, the ground was ravaged, riddled with bottomless craters, as if it had been violently struck by a meteorite from outer space.
Faced with this bizarre and awe-inspiring scene, these prodigies were filled with suspicion and confusion. They quickly inquired of their elders what had happened.
After learning the whole story, everyone was horrified and turned their fearful gazes toward Yuan Xun.
Just then, more than twenty figures rushed out of the secret realm like lightning. Yuan Xun stared at them, and a kind and gentle smile instantly bloomed on his face. His appearance was completely different from his previous decisive, ruthless, and domineering image.
Then, Yuan Xun, with a radiant smile on his face, strode forward and said in a loud voice, "The glorious achievements you made in entering the Divine Source Secret Realm this time are simply breathtaking! Looking at the legendary figures throughout history, I'm afraid there is no one who can compare with you. You are truly unprecedented and unparalleled!"
Just then, the Sword Ancestor, the Fist Ancestor, and other elders of the Yuan Clan arrived beside Yuan Zhexian. Upon seeing this, Yuan Zhexian and the others quickly bowed respectfully, cupping their hands in greeting, and said in unison, "Greetings, elders and seniors!"
"Excellent, excellent, excellent!" The three patriarchs of the Jade Clan nodded in praise, their eyes full of appreciation. They were clearly increasingly satisfied with this outstanding imperial son of the Yuan Clan.
The Sword Ancestor remarked with deep emotion, "Truly, the younger generation surpasses the older, each generation stronger than the last! Looking at this group of energetic and talented young people, we old folks have unknowingly grown old."
The patriarch of the Tai'a tribe nodded in agreement, saying, "That's absolutely right! Before long, they will surely surpass their predecessors and far exceed our level."
The patriarch of the Jun family, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but sigh in the same way.
At the same time, the elders all turned their gazes to the ancient freaks who had just awakened in their respective families. In particular, Yuan Xun, the Fist Ancestor, and the Knife Ancestor stared intently at Yuan Haoran, who possessed the second-ranked innate holy body among the three thousand physiques.
His previously tense face relaxed as if caressed by a spring breeze, his eyes and brows radiating undisguised joy, as if he were witnessing a brilliant new star rising. He thought to himself, "This child is exceptionally talented and possesses an extraordinary physique. Countless years from now, he will surely become one of the top figures, second only to Yuan Zhexian!"
Thinking of this, Yuan Xunnan quickly stepped forward and approached Yuan Zhexian, recounting in detail the thrilling battle that had just taken place.
Yuan Zhexian listened quietly to Yuan Xun's narration. At first, his expression was relatively calm, but when he heard some key points, a cold light suddenly flashed in his originally deep, ocean-like eyes. Then, a chilling killing intent surged from his body, and the surrounding air seemed to freeze instantly.
After Yuan Xun finished speaking, Yuan Zhexian slowly turned his head. His originally murderous gaze instantly returned to normal, and he smiled as he looked at the ancestors of the Jade Clan, the Jun Family, the Ji Family, Tai'a, the Sword Sect, and Shangqing.
He then bowed with his hands clasped and sincerely thanked them, saying, "I am deeply grateful for the help of all the seniors this time. I hope you will accept this small gift as a token of my gratitude."
Before he finished speaking, Yuan Zhexian suddenly waved his sleeve, and in an instant, six dazzling rays of light shot into the sky. When the light dissipated, everyone looked closely and saw that there were six pieces of primordial true ice, each as tall as a person, lying in mid-air.
"This...this is actually the legendary primordial ice!" The elders exclaimed in disbelief.
“Such a rare item, Yuan Clan Divine Child, you should quickly put it away! We are unworthy to receive it!” One of the elders hurriedly waved his hand to decline.
However, despite everyone's polite refusal, Yuan Zhexian spoke up again without hesitation, saying, "Please, seniors, accept it. Otherwise, I will feel uneasy."
Seeing Yuan Zhexian's resolute attitude, the elders exchanged glances, hesitated for a moment, and then stopped being coy. They each raised their arms and waved them, carefully storing a piece of primordial ice in their own Dao consciousness sea.
After completing these actions, a satisfied and delighted smile appeared on each of their faces. It seemed that this piece of primordial ice was undoubtedly an extremely valuable and rare gift for their family. Perhaps the biggest gain from this trip was to help Yuan Xun and his group obtain this invaluable primordial ice.
Yuan Xun and the others stood aside, their faces always bearing faint smiles, but they all tacitly remained silent, especially Yuan Xun. With his deep understanding of Yuan Zhexian, he knew very well that what his grandson had gained was definitely not just those few pieces of primordial true ice. If it were just that little bit, Yuan Zhexian would never have so easily taken it out and given it to everyone.
"Alright, alright, this matter is settled. The Divine Source Secret Realm will be closing soon."
"Gentlemen, let's take our leave now! We must hurry back to the Yuan Clan." Yuan Xun said with a smile, bowing to the elders.
Seeing this, everyone returned the greeting with clasped hands, signifying their farewell. Then, Yuan Xun led his disciples away, embarking on their journey home.
Meanwhile, members of the other families also hurriedly left with their disciples, returning to their respective clans.
Half a day passed in the blink of an eye. At this time, the light curtain that had been shining brightly at the entrance of the Divine Source Secret Realm gradually dimmed and finally slowly disappeared without a trace. Then, that place transformed back into a huge circular spatial hole, like a deep vortex, slowly rotating.
