Chapter 966: Chapter 306: Sect Master’s Secret Order–Forging One Hundred Thousand Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals in Secret

The feeling of bungee jumping from a thousand-foot height without a rope… exhilarating.

“You should try it too.”

Chen Qiu licked his lips, somewhat intoxicated, and looked at Bai Pingling beside him. It was over; he felt like he could completely empathize with Body Cultivation. He was starting to understand the joy of Body Cultivation; indeed… it was quite exhilarating!

This is the feeling of being a muscle-bound monster.

The next moment—-

Bai Pingling also soared into the air with a scream.

…

Moments later.

“Ugh, ugh…”

Bai Pingling, pale-faced, knelt on the ground, his whole body limp, retching violently, his actions much more exaggerated than Fat Long’s. Fat Long, seeing this, laughed happily: “How is it? Isn’t it exhilarating? How are you feeling now?”

And at this moment—-

The Secret Realm host finally broke out of the statue-like state and walked back to Chen Qiu and the others.

Seeing the Secret Realm host’s hesitant manner, Chen Qiu knew they were probably feeling quite frustrated, and immediately waved his hand gently, saying, “I know the method to clear this stage isn’t correct, so tell me how this stage should be cleared according to the rules?”

The Secret Realm host did not speak, but walked with a complex expression to the side of the mountain gate.

In the corner next to the mountain gate, there was a stone basin.

The host picked up the stone basin, walked to the spot directly under the mountain gate, and placed it on a conspicuous red dot.

The next moment—-

This empty stone basin suddenly began to gush out a large amount of spring water, quickly overflowing. On the water surface, a crystal-clear Luminous Pearl could be seen clearly. The host turned his head with a complex expression to look at Chen Qiu and the others, then touched the reflection in the water with his hand, making his intention very clear.

The overflowing spring water from the basin began to flow onto the ground, and as it did, a few words slowly appeared on the ground.

“While gazing at the towering mountains, don’t forget to look at the grass beneath your feet.”

…

“Quite good, carries a sense of artistic conception.”

Chen Qiu nodded expressionlessly. It seemed that this palace was indeed built by those from the Chao Tian Sect, and those transmigrators seemed to be middle-aged men. Men at this age long for artistic conception, especially this kind of seemingly profound artistic conception.

He could even imagine it.

When the creator of this Secret Realm finished this scene, they probably indulged in it by themselves for a long time, admiring how they could create such a profound Secret Realm.

A pure fool.

He couldn’t help but curse inwardly.

“…”

Fat Long gazed at the Secret Realm host expressionlessly, then looked down at the stone basin filled with spring water. After a long while, he spoke softly: “Does this count? Isn’t this just an illusion? Wasn’t the task to touch the Luminous Pearl at the top of the mountain gate?”

“It counts.”

The Secret Realm host replied softly, “The correct method to pass this stage is indeed like this. However, if you can actually touch the Luminous Pearl at the top of the mountain, you can also pass the stage, after all…that would be quite impressive.”

“This is the essence of the Secret Realm itself.”

“This is how it was designed when the Secret Realm was created.”

“Who created this Secret Realm?” Fat Long asked.

“I am not sure.”

The Secret Realm host shook his head: “Perhaps it was a great figure who descended it, or it had been abandoned for a long time, and the Heavenly Dao repurposed it into a Heavenly Dao Secret Realm. This Secret Realm is a ‘Heavenly Dao type’ Secret Realm, meaning it was created by the Heavenly Dao itself, although the former possibility exists, it is not large.”

“Let’s not talk about this.”

Chen Qiu shook his head, leaning on his cane and striding into the mountain gate: “As long as we’ve passed, it’s good. Let’s go in and take a look. The eighth stage is inside, right?”

The reward for the seventh stage.

Is “A thread of Yin Emperor’s Fortune.”

Yes, it’s the Yin Emperor’s Fortune used to heal “Immortal Cancer.” For those who need it, it’s invaluable, but for him now, it’s somewhat abundant.

But having it is still better than not.

So far, his greatest gain in this Secret Realm is many threads of “Earth Pride Luck,” and several “One-day versions of Seven-colored Terms.” Besides these, there weren’t any particularly surprising rewards.

The rewards aren’t weak, but they aren’t overly surprising either.

Unless a “Heavenly Dao Term Group” or “Permanent Seven-Colored Entry” comes along.

His foundation is so strong that his threshold for rewards is too high, making it difficult for any regular reward to stir his emotions.

…

“Senior, this way.”

The Secret Realm host hurriedly jogged up and began introducing as they walked: “After entering the mountain gate, the main structure of the palace is ahead. The eastern-facing ones are the main palaces, originally built for important figures to live in, while the western-facing ones are the side palaces, where some members of the faction stayed.”

“The southern-facing ones are where the attendants are housed.”

“Only one palace faces north, and this palace is the headquarters of this power.”

“That palace is also the ninth stage.”

“The eighth stage we’re heading to now is inside that dried well ahead. This stage is extremely simple, with almost no difficulty. This way, please.”

As Chen Qiu listened to the Secret Realm host’s explanation, he was also observing the scene beyond the mountain gate.

Behind the mountain gate, there were countless palaces scattered indiscriminately, constructed with an ancient charm. Yet these palaces seemed not built according to design aesthetics, appearing somewhat randomly placed.

No sign of withered grass.

All the palaces were earth-yellow, giving an overall misty feel, as if covered in dust for tens of thousands of years. Inside the entire palace, it was extremely quiet, with only the sound of their footsteps and conversation, devoid of any human presence.
