Chapter 264: Emerald Spirit Lake, Secret Realm Opened
In the secret chamber, a large amount of spirit energy surged as Yun Ye refined it into his body, shaping his spiritual body. As gray wisps dissipated, he stopped his cultivation, a satisfied expression flashing in his eyes.
In just ten days, he had completed his retraining of the Origin Law.
Here, in the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect, his growth was almost unbelievable; the environment was simply too exceptional.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, the token vibrated, and a message appeared.
"The Rain World Secret Realm is about to open. Hurry to Cangqing Mountain!"
Yun Ye couldn’t help but show a hint of joy.
This was perfect timing!
Although he had advanced to the sixth True Disciple and expanded his Spirit Land, it would take time for those gains to materialize.
He was actually running low on money now, barely managing with the funds from selling a few Sun Wheel Blood Cleansing Spirit Pills.
This was not only due to the consumption from refining the Origin Law but also largely because of the contributions from the disciples of the San Cai branch.
Yun Ye had only redeemed a small portion, using rewards from the Secret Realm’s Spiritual Herbs. This method was manageable for small redemptions, but if he bulk ordered Spiritual Herbs, even Lan Wuyin would start asking questions.
He needed a new way to generate income to cover up the issue.
The Rain World Secret Realm was certainly the top choice!
"Xiang Qingrou, activate the cave’s formation, then notify Xiang Yan and Xiang Cong. We are setting out."
"Understood!"
As a Spiritual Law practitioner, Xiang Qingrou effortlessly notified the other two, who quickly arrived.
When they got there, their first sight was a flying artifact that resembled a ‘bird.’
"Is this a flying artifact similar to a paper crane? The wings seem fixed; how can it fly?"
Xiang Yan and the others had been helping Yun Ye manage affairs and had interacted quite a bit with the outside world, having seen many things.
The most common form of flying artifacts was an enlarged version of the paper crane, known for its speed and agility, making it much more useful than flying boats or shuttles. Yun Ye’s seemed a bit unusual.
"This artifact is called the Xuan Bird; you’ll understand once you get inside," Yun Ye explained without further detail and urged everyone into the aircraft.
Once inside, all three had the same thought.
So this is why the heir values comfort?
The interior had seats and a glass ceiling to shield against the wind, making it far more enjoyable than the paper crane or flying boat forms.
"Boom!"
The Xuan Bird easily broke through ten times the speed of sound, swiftly heading toward the main peak of the San Cai branch, causing the three to exclaim in amazement.
Having experienced the second stage of the Heavenly Path, Yun Ye realized he needed to forge a flying artifact.
Not being able to fly often led to many troubles.
Moreover, using the flying artifact to travel, both the speed and convenience far surpassed what one could achieve with just their physical body.
Therefore, while cultivating the Origin Law, Yun Ye took the time to forge a battle-style flying artifact.
"Whoosh!"
A white rainbow flashed by.
The Xuan Bird vanished in the Qinghe Spirit Land in the blink of an eye, leaving behind a formation barrier that gradually expanded to cover the entire cave.
…
Cangqing Mountain.
The six Chiefs, including Yun Ye, had all arrived.
Almost all of the disciples from the San Cai branch were also present.
"Xu Yue, where is the Summit Master?" a disciple whispered.
All the disciples of the San Cai branch were here, yet the only one missing was Summit Master Xu Yue. What did that mean?
"Our Master doesn’t have time to focus on small matters. I will lead this Secret Realm competition," said the daoist man seated at the Chief’s position, his gaze sharp and cold.
He was the Chief True Disciple, Wei Jiuqing, already a great cultivator in the law realms.
"Of course, please give your orders, Chief."
Yun Ye and the others cupped their fists in respect.
Seeing Yun Ye not causing any disruption, Wei Jiuqing nodded, slightly easing his cold expression. "The Rain World Secret Realm is rich in law medicines, which can quickly enhance cultivation levels and law techniques. This Secret Realm opens once every sixty years and is a grand event for the entire sect; it must not be missed."
"However, the Rain World Secret Realm is extremely dangerous, so entrance is typically restricted to weaker opponents. For every branch, aside from the True Disciples who naturally secure spots, only the top ten disciples can participate."
"Those who secure a spot may bring companions in, up to three people. Companions will collect law medicines and kill demons, with all points counted towards the master. If there are no issues, you may start deciding on candidates now. If you believe your strength surpasses another, you may challenge them directly."
Most of the attention turned to Yun Ye.
Here, he was the one who could decide on spots; even those who believed their strength was greater than his would not dispute his decisions.
"I have a question. Can cultivators in the law realms also enter the Rain World Secret Realm?" Yun Ye asked.
"Yes."
"The rules of the Rain World Secret Realm are very complete and do not restrict entry based on cultivation level. Be it myself or law realm practitioners from other branches, we will all participate in the challenge within the Rain World Secret Realm," Wei Jiuqing replied lightly.
The Secret Realm in Baishi Town did not actually prohibit higher cultivation level practitioners from entering; it was just that the law realm practitioners there did not want to enter for their own reasons.
"I see… Why are you all looking at me? I won’t designate spots; you should decide based on your strength. There’s enough time before the Secret Realm opens for you to showcase your abilities." Yun Ye turned to the group.
"Thank you, heir! In that case, we will determine spots based on strength!"
The group rose and promptly began the qualification battles.
In Cangqing Mountain, there was no shortage of formations, allowing the disciples to fully display their skills.
Under Wei Jiuqing’s supervision, the qualification battle quickly concluded.
The ten who earned spots were injured in their consecutive fights, not in great shape.
Seeing this, Yun Ye distributed a bottle of healing spirit pills to all participants, helping them recover quickly.
Though a bottle of spirit pills was not substantial, his gesture greatly appreciated by the disciples, boosting their favorability towards him.
However, some True Disciples frowned. Since when did those in higher positions need to care about the feelings of their subordinates?
Xiang Ying was someone who liked to break rules, always engaging in seemingly trivial acts.
Clearly, there was still time before the Secret Realm opened, enough for them to adjust their states, yet he still chose to offer minor benefits to win hearts.
Many True Disciples shook their heads, feeling disdain for such actions, utterly unable to understand why Xiang Ying, who completely overpowered them, cared about the opinions of these weaker disciples.
The day of the Secret Realm opening soon arrived.
On this day, countless streaks of light crossed the sky, converging at a location in the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect. As the view expanded, a vast, ocean-like emerald lake came into sight.
The site of the Rain World Secret Realm was indeed the Emerald Spirit Lake.
This was Qushuang’s Dao System’s trump card, with the spirit palace of the Born Main Vein standing atop the lake.
In front of this magnificent spiritual lake, despite the numerous practitioners arriving, they still appeared as insignificant as a single grain of sand in the ocean.
Yun Ye stepped out of the flying artifact, surveying the incoming practitioners, silently astonished.
Though this Secret Realm belonged to Qushuang’s Dao System, everyone from the sect was participating.
Moreover, a single branch had sixteen people joining the Secret Realm competition, not even counting their companions.
In terms of numbers, this qualified as a grand event, especially since the participants were the strongest from their respective branches.
The powerful auras Yun Ye sensed were simply countless; in this environment, law realm practitioners were as numerous as the hairs on a cow.
