Chapter 265: Source of Fortune
"Xiang Ying has also arrived…"
Countless gazes fell upon Yun Ye.
Although he stood firmly on the ground and did not yet look down upon the crowd, no one could ignore him.
A true genius, even when standing on the earth, could still pull down the sun from the sky.
The gap in realms could not hinder such a person.
Yun Ye remained calm and fearless as always.
However, Xiang Qingrou and the others felt uneasy; under all the scrutiny, their expressions did not change, but they felt extremely uncomfortable, as if they could be seen through. Eventually, they simply lowered their heads and closed their eyes, waiting in silence.
Seeing this scene, Yun Ye raised an eyebrow, a powerful aura enveloping the area and blocking the prying eyes.
He understood why the powerful liked to isolate themselves from the world, cutting off all forms of scrutiny.
Even mere gazes were crystal clear to people of their level, especially the gazes of equals. In such circumstances, unleashing one’s own power to create a barrier was the best choice.
"Junior Brother Xiang Ying."
Fenggong Yuan descended and greeted Yun Ye.
In the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect, the only clear distinction was the difference in realms; the concept of generation hardly applied.
Fenggong Yuan believed Yun Ye could grow to the same level, so he referred to him as a fellow disciple, and if their relationship was good, as junior brother.
Of course, the title of junior brother also related to Yun Ye becoming the sixth True Disciple of the San Cai branch.
True Disciples were considered to have truly entered the framework of the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect.
"Senior Brother, how have you been lately?"
Yun Ye cupped his fists in greeting.
"Doing very well. Do you have any plans for this Secret Realm competition, Junior Brother?"
Fenggong Yuan smiled, having protected Yun Ye once, and his name quickly spread throughout Qushuang’s branch.
Wherever he went, he would be noticed; this feeling was far beyond what the identity of a law realm practitioner could bring.
The name Xiang Ying carried too much weight; even those associated with it would be taken seriously.
"As for the Secret Realm, I don’t have any specific plans; I will simply give my all. Senior Brother, could there be some hidden secrets involved?"
Yun Ye asked.
"Of course. It’s called the Secret Realm competition because there are rules, and with rules come choices. Choosing which path to take is very important… look."
Fenggong Yuan pointed to the sky.
There was something there that had been capturing Yun Ye’s attention, even without Fenggong Yuan pointing it out.
It was a massive black sphere, and from it, Yun Ye sensed a profound Spirit Law Power.
But undoubtedly, it was not ordinary Spirit Law power; it was Spirit Sense or perhaps an even higher level of Spirit Law power.
What was the purpose of such immense Spirit Law power suspended in the sky?
"That is a Spirit Law ritual that can interfere with the Secret Realm to some extent. It was created by a Powerful Figure of the sect, and it can project everything happening within the Secret Realm. This is the first choice: to showcase oneself and bring glory to the sect."
"Choosing this path means all geniuses, all strong opponents, are your enemies. You cannot avoid battle; otherwise, it’s completely unconvincing," Fenggong Yuan said.
"The Rain World Secret Realm is not meant for collecting resources? I heard there are many precious medicines and treasures; isn’t it a waste of time to fight someone?" Yun Ye asked.
"When you can seize the harvests of others, then it’s no longer a waste of time," Fenggong Yuan replied lightly with a smile.
"It can be done that way?" Yun Ye was taken aback.
"Treasures and resources belong to the capable; this is the way of the world. The Rain World Secret Realm is meant as a trial ground for testing disciples. If you can defeat your opponent, all the rewards are yours for the taking," Fenggong Yuan regarded it as obvious.
"What about the other choices?" Yun Ye nodded and inquired.
"Avoiding battle and quietly gathering herbs is the second choice. If you can protect yourself under the search of strong opponents, you would still stand out among the weaker opponents and could obtain one-tenth of the medicines you gather."
"The third choice is to delve deeper into the Rain World Secret Realm to acquire its inheritance without concerning yourself with others. The inheritance here does not refer to Stone Tablets but to some ruins buried deep within the Secret Realm. Even now, many areas of the Secret Realm remain unexplored, and from time to time, people gain inheritances and treasures," Fenggong Yuan explained.
Inheritances and treasures from the immortal era were extraordinary, their value far exceeding that of renewable resources.
Geniuses with absolute confidence often venture into the Secret Realm seeking ruins, attempting to obtain immortal inheritances.
These are foundational assets for clans; even if many inheritances cannot be learned, they offer great reference value.
After hearing the explanation, Yun Ye quietly glanced at his own Fate and nodded calmly, "It looks quite difficult; is it all about luck?"
"It can be said that way, but luck is not an illusion. If you have practiced Spirit Law, you would understand that the so-called fortune is a real thing; it does not appear out of thin air nor does it vanish without a trace. Junior Brother, you must possess great fortune," Fenggong Yuan said with a smile.
"Then, does that mean that the weak cannot possess great fortune to make a comeback?" Yun Ye suddenly said.
"Naturally, it is nearly impossible for the weak to have great fortune. Even if they have the decisiveness to make the right choices at all times, there are always barriers they cannot cross. Otherwise, why has the situation in Huangzhou remained unchanged since ancient times?" Fenggong Yuan affirmed.
Yun Ye pondered thoughtfully.
Lan Wuyin’s fortune stands at S+, the most terrifying fortune in all of Huangzhou, just one step away from being the strongest.
By this logic, if he wasn’t mistaken, the strongest entity in all of Huangzhou must be the leader of either the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect or the Dream Marsh Spirit Sect; there could be no others.
If asked why…
Lan Wuyin’s fortune does not stem from himself but is drawn from the entirety of the Qushuang Dao System, giving him S+ fortune.
Similarly, a sect leader’s fortune also comes from the whole sect, not from just one person.
In such cases, an individual’s fortune cannot match theirs, no matter what.
At least, in the millennium-long rule of the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect, no challenger from the grassroots has emerged.
"Here they come!"
Someone suddenly exclaimed, causing everyone to lower their heads and look towards the Emerald Spirit Lake.
At one point on the Emerald Spirit Lake, the water surface collapsed, revealing a massive void, and a beam of light surged upwards from this void, reaching a height of a hundred meters, very eye-catching.
"This is the Secret Realm gate, so conspicuous?" Yun Ye asked curiously.
"This is likely a Secret Realm built by the ancient Great Wilderness Spirit Marsh sect. Since it was constructed within the sect, there’s no need for concealment. If there are problems here, it can only mean the time of destruction," Fenggong Yuan explained.
Indeed, Yun Ye understood.
After that, the two exchanged a few more words before suddenly falling silent.
"It’s time to enter; I look forward to seeing your performances."
This was announced by powerful spiritual waves coming from a distance, notifying everyone.
It was the System Masters of various Dao systems.
They did not appear in person but could observe the entire Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect from their respective Dao Palaces.
Upon receiving the order, everyone bowed to the heavens and then stepped into the Rain World Secret Realm.
The range of this light beam was vast, and there was no question of congestion. Fenggong Yuan led Yun Ye, Xiang Qingrou, and the others as they entered together.
