Chapter 274: Self-Introduction
Ocean Palace.
Many high-ranking officials witnessed the scene.
Among them, a long-haired master with a cold expression slightly shook his head: “Perhaps Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect is still puzzled about why Hai Hao can move freely? Indeed, to protect the precious Nine Master medicines, we must stay at a location to guard, but this does not include the Sea Heart Divine Body.”
“Resonating with the ocean, becoming the heart of the sea, with such a constitution, Hai Hao can carry the Nine Master medicines and move them freely. He can embed the medicines within his body as a source of energy, and there is no need for him to rely on the power of Ocean Palace for defense, as we do.”
Several masters focused on the image; in their eyes, Hai Hao undoubtedly possessed crushing power.
Yet, among cultivators, victory was never guaranteed.
This young man was so talented; he probably had the forbidden devices and Talismans from the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect for protection.
Ocean King shared the same thought and said, “Without Ocean Palace, Hai Hao can only briefly borrow the power of Ocean Palace through the Sea Heart Divine Body. How can that compare to eternal overwhelming strength?”
“If the opponent has a hidden peerless law realm expert, Hai Hao will surely die. At that time, the next Nine Master medicine to grow will take five hundred years. That will be a great sin for Hai Hao.”
The high-ranking officials showed no concern. Someone stated, “Let’s wait until Hai Hao returns for judgment, the Sea Heart Divine Body does not belong to Hai Hao; it is the power that belongs to the King.”
“Indeed.”
All eight masters present nodded in agreement, recognizing the significance of “King.”
In fact, they could see the entire ocean through projections because of Ocean King’s authority.
Even their own beings were very real projections, created by Ocean King with his secret techniques.
The true bodies of each master actually resided in fixed oceans, supported by vast formations.
This formation was called Ocean Palace, arranged using Ocean King’s power to channel the ocean’s spirit veins.
The Ocean Palace formation was nearly invincible in this Secret Realm, comparable to a peerless law realm, even surpassing it.
It was this power that maintained the existence of the Ocean Empire, allowing their consciousness to endure for thousands of years.
Without Ocean King, they could not survive; all masters would actively defend this.
The Rain World Secret Realm was ultimately the trial ground set up by the Disaster Source Heavenly Sect, with strict rules and orderly conduct, not allowing any outliers.
This was true both inside and outside the Rain World Secret Realm.
For instance, the higher-level experts of the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect might defeat the masters of Ocean Palace, but that would be against the rules of the Secret Realm, which would permit the Nine Great Masters to destroy the medicines.
Rather than suffer a double loss, it was wiser to restrain oneself, and the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect made a prudent decision by never sending Mystic Realm experts into the Secret Realm.
Over the millennium, although many talents emerged, the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect had only managed to seize the top-grade medicines a few times.
They could not gather all nine top-grade medicines, which prevented them from verifying whether "crowned as kings" was real.
…
Was this person being overly self-important?
Yun Ye had little expression on his face but was deeply confused inside.
In this Secret Realm, there was a fundamental conflict between the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect and the Ocean Empire, which would inevitably lead to bloody battles over resources. There was no need for words; starting big the moment they met was the correct approach.
Yet this so-called master wanted to give a self-introduction before the battle and insisted on knowing the enemy’s name?
Could it be that he practiced incantation?
After a brief moment of thought,
Yun Ye dismissed this possibility.
The true name "Xiang Ying" was effective and could point to him, but unfortunately, the humans within the Rain World Secret Realm could only practice fixed secret techniques. As a person from the Rain World Secret Realm, it was impossible to use any techniques other than the Spirit Law or Water Elemental Spiritual Law.
Using Spirit Law, he commanded Xiang Yan and Xiang Cong to take Xiang Qingrou away while Yun Ye quietly spoke:
“Self-introduction, huh… I am the direct disciple of Elder Qushuang, known as Xiang Ying. I am seven years old this year, and I reside in the Qinghe Spirit Land of the San Cai branch. I must pay attention to the development of Qinghe Spirit Land every day, and only when I feel reassured will I begin my cultivation.”
With such a long and inexplicable self-introduction, it was not just Hai Hao but also the members of the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect who were filled with questions.
What was Xiang Ying doing?
Was he being so perfunctory to delay time?
No, there was something fundamentally wrong.
Why would a top talent need to embarrass himself delaying time for just three spiritual realms?
They were merely consumables, so did they deserve that?
Just when the members of the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect thought Great Master Hai Hao would surely be enraged and take immediate action,
Hai Hao merely frowned.
He did not intervene.
He saw the Xuan Bird take flight and knew Yun Ye wanted to buy time for the three spiritual realms to escape.
However, he had no intention of stopping it. As one of the Nine Great Masters, he had a very special self-restraint. He relied on this self-restraint to maintain himself, thus placing great importance on adherence.
He referred to this self-restraint as "etiquette."
No matter what he thought inside, on the surface, he would always follow the "etiquette."
Poor time-wasting?
That was quite useful.
And that was enough for Yun Ye.
“Since I began my self-cultivation, I have never slacked off. Every day I must refine my strength and reflect on my mistakes, never allowing my learned skills to be forgotten due to laxity…”
“My Master has said that I am quite the genius.”
Language was a waste of time.
When Yun Ye was still recovering from his throat in his second life, he could write down what he wanted to express in an instant.
The other party could also understand it at a glance and grasp the information contained in the text.
However, speaking was different; voices had limitations, and exceeding those limits would make it hard for even cultivators to hear clearly.
Moreover, Yun Ye was speaking at a normal person’s pace. After saying such a long passage, he spent at least ten seconds.
During this time, the Xuan Bird had flown far enough…
However, compared to the power of law realms, that distance was not insurmountable, and there obviously was a formation surrounding them, preventing them from escaping this world of thunder and lightning.
To put it plainly, in a world where individual power was supreme, even within the same realm, the difference was like heaven and earth, not to mention across different realms.
Yun Ye grew too fast for ordinary people to keep up; this Secret Realm struggle had already exceeded the limits of the three of them…
With the baptism of this Secret Realm contest, the chances for the three to advance to law realms would increase significantly. As a trustworthy person, it would be best for them to survive and become law realms.
“Are you finished with your introduction?”
Great Master Hai Hao asked.
Yun Ye smiled, pointing his right hand to the sky, spirit energy spreading along with it.
He said, “To hear the truth in the morning and die by evening is enough. Ocean Master, as one of the strongest combat powers of the Ocean Empire, I acknowledge you as part of the grand chapter of my life.”
“Although I don’t know why you intruded into my formation, I will not give you the opportunity to strike. So here, at this moment, please meet your death…”
“Extreme Cold Sealing Formation, activate!”
White flags fell from all directions; this was a formation that had long been set up, waiting for the enemy to arrive.
In the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect, Yun Ye had been studying Weapon Forging and alchemy techniques. The formation flags he crafted were unlike any before.
Though it was somewhat regrettable that the formation flag did not carry the perfect Spiritual Law of All Things Silent, as a secret weapon crafted with great effort by Yun Ye, it possessed sufficient intricacy and great power.
