Evil Venerable of the Sword Dao-Chapter 588 - 025 Entering the Secret Realm

"Hiss--"

Space distorted, as the Array Plate transformed its energy into a twisted, worm-like void channel, resembling a ghost choosing its prey. Meanwhile, the Array Plate itself morphed into a massive Combat Armor ship, enveloping all thirteen Cultivators within it, suppressing their overflow of energy, and sealing them. Then, with a thunderous roar of Heaven and Earth, the gigantic warship entered the worm-like twisted channel and vanished.

"Pop pop pop--"

Near the Heavenly Heart Secret Realm, the Void shattered and twisted with a large warship suddenly appearing. The warship then shrank, emitting streams of purple-black light resembling a Spiritual Spring. Within the glowing mists, Cultivators, like ejected worms, rapidly enlarged; within moments, all thirteen of Yun Shu’s party appeared in the starry sky.

"This ancient Tianhe Clan artifact is indeed formidable, capable of forcibly tearing and traversing space, performing spatial layer jumps! Truly awe-inspiring!"

Ying Han exclaimed.

"Of course, the ancient Tianhe Clan, said to hail from the ancient Sun Plane, could refine artifacts into physical bodies and nurture superb Spiritual Wisdom, capable of calculations reaching the ends of Heaven and Earth, the Universe, very powerful. However, they later vanished for unknown reasons, but the civilization they left behind, those formidable ’Magic Artifact Puppets,’ are definitely a Cultivator’s nightmare."

A black-clothed man named Lu Qing explained solemnly.

"Indeed, I’ve also heard about the Tianhe Clan, but their era is now beyond any investigation. Alright, let’s focus—I’m about to activate the Moonlight Saint Seal."

Yun Shu spoke, shifting the discussion back to the sensing of the Moonlight Spirit.

With that said, everyone concentrated and held their breath, standing guard solemnly to help Yun Shu, ensuring the sensing process wasn’t interrupted.

After all, the Saint Seal sensing only allowed one opportunity.

The Saint Seal was a type of Holy Artifact, its activation requiring immense energy consumption. Moreover, this type of sensing was protracted, and for a Cultivator who was not a Saint, it was akin to a nightmare.

That’s why, after Yun Shu made the proposal, everyone became exceedingly serious, not daring to be distracted even slightly.

...

Yuan Ci Secret Realm held the Power of a Secret Realm.

The power level of the Secret Realm was particularly unique and different from all other forms of strength.

This kind of power was more suitable for executing the Killing Spirit Divine Dao, Tai Chu Rune Tao, and even the Netherworld Heaven Bridge Technique.

Zhou Yan, accompanied by Hou Ling and Hou Chen, left the Nirvana Ancestor Star and stood in the Void, starting to utilize the power of the Secret Realm.

This was his first time utilizing the power of the Secret Realm since possessing it. Waves of light, emanating from this cosmic space, began to radiate outward in all directions.

Zhou Yan felt as though he was a radiant sun, displaying endless light, illuminating the Heaven and Earth in all directions.

"Hm? There are quite a few Secret Realms? How is this possible?"

Zhou Yan sensed several Secret Realms in just a short moment. Inside his Soul’s Dantian, a golden little Sword seemed to emit gentle golden light, the light illuminating the Soul, making it feel more noble.

With a larger life force, possessing more stable and heaven-defying capabilities, thus through the power of the Secret Realm, Zhou Yan sensed several flows of Secret Realm’s presence.

"These... Turns out to be some Saints’ Secret Realms. Unexpectedly, just near Nirvana Ancestor Star, there are already four Secret Realms... not just these, there are five altogether. Even if each Secret Realm possesses only one Saint, together, these would total up to five Saints.

It seems Saints are not as rare as I thought. Perhaps due to sensing the crisis of the Breeding Ground, none have shown themselves."

Zhou Yan pondered inwardly.

His sensing power continued to spread, and finally, after a moment, Zhou Yan’s body trembled, his face revealing a trace of excitement.

"Master, did you find it?"

Hou Chen, observing words and colors, knew that Zhou Yan must have discovered something.

"Yes, I found it. I had not expected it to be in such a space rift. If it weren’t for my possessing the powerful Yuan Ci Secret Realm and the ability to deploy the energy of the Primordial Magnetic Pole Light, which allows an incredibly detailed scan of the void, I would have never discovered such a place."

Zhou Yan said excitedly.

He not only sensed the Heavenly Heart Secret Realm but also felt strands of the power of Moonlight Spirit and a trace of the bloodline inheritance of the Emperor Qi Sword Body. Zhou Yan had a deep memory of the Moonlight Spirit, hence he immediately knew the location of Feng Lingqing.

This was because, in the entire Heavenly Heart Secret Realm, there was only one place that possessed the aura of Moonlight Spirit—the Baiyue Canyon.

"Shall we head there immediately?"

Hou Chen suggested.

"Yes, Ling’er, Chen Chen, follow me. I can take you directly into the secret realm."

Zhou Yan said.

Hou Ling’er and Hou Chen immediately got ready. Zhou Yan took their hands, and deploying the Secret Realm Power, he executed the Netherworld Heaven Bridge Technique. In an instant, the eight-carried sedan chair appeared, like a ghostly ray of light, instantly moving through the void.

"Ssssh—"

The energy in the void fluctuated, and in just a moment, Zhou Yan appeared with Hou Ling’er and Hou Chen in a chaotic part of the void.

The energy here was somewhat chaotic and complex, but the spiritual energy in the air was still very rich.

Compared to the broken environment of Nirvana Ancestor Star, this place could truly be called ’Heaven.’

"Master... Have we actually arrived at the Heavenly Heart Secret Realm?"

Hou Chen was surprised, then said.

"Yes, we’ve arrived. This is the Heavenly Heart Secret Realm. I used the energy of the secret realm to lock the space, and then traversed space using the Netherworld Heaven Bridge Technique." 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Zhou Yan said, walking towards a direction, his gaze fixed straight ahead.

In his gaze, intricate array patterns appeared in the front, complex like a dense spiderweb.

Among these intricate array patterns were all kinds of bizarre foundation nodes.

Even an Array Master, at a glance, would find it somewhat shocking and dizzying, but Zhou Yan calmly observed, occasionally pondering something.

In these dense, spider-web-like array patterns, a series of young cultivators’ figures and imprints intermittently appeared, seeming to undergo continuous changes.

"Eh? Has this secret realm already been discovered?"

Zhou Yan was somewhat puzzled in his heart, but he did not ponder too much because when they were at Sword Burial Ancestor Star, Jia Yongheng had mentioned the Heavenly Heart Secret Realm long ago. Not only Jia Yongheng knew about it, but also Great Sun Xuanzhe and others, though Great Sun Xuanzhe and others had died in the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sword Tomb, transforming into the Dao without even leaving a Void Body, ultimately taking the secret with them as it dissipated with the wind.
