The inheritance of the secret realm’s master—this was undoubtedly the greatest and most elusive opportunity within the entire realm!
Secret realms would appear from time to time, but very few ever managed to obtain the legacy left behind by the realm’s original master.
So, when it became known that Chen Fei had obtained this very inheritance, everyone was filled with intense envy.
What they envied wasn’t just the inheritance itself, but the fact that Chen Fei, despite only being at the half-step Dao Realm, could already wield a Dao Spiritual Weapon.
Dao Spiritual Weapons were far more precious than ordinary spiritual artifacts. In this era, no one could forge such weapons anymore.
After learning the truth, no one dared to think that Chen Fei was speaking arrogantly. Especially the four half-step Dao Realm experts—all felt a heavy pressure weighing down on them.
They had assumed that no one at the scene could compete with them for the Dao-level treasures and had already considered them as theirs.
But now, an unexpected contender had emerged—Chen Fei, a half-step Dao Realm Spirit Arts Master wielding a Dao Spiritual Weapon. The threat he posed was overwhelming.
The two Dao Realm experts from Qinling exchanged glances and immediately understood each other’s thoughts.
While Dao-level opportunities weren’t completely out of reach for top sects like Qinling—which had never lacked fourth-grade, and even occasionally fifth-grade spiritual pills—such precious chances rarely fell into the hands of half-step Dao Realm disciples.
This opportunity was perhaps the most accessible for them—one that didn’t require a huge sacrifice or price.
Despite recognizing Chen Fei’s strength, they had no intentions of giving up. In fact, the four had already, tacitly, formed a temporary alliance to deal with him.
Li Qingyi quickly sensed the abnormal atmosphere and leaned close to whisper to Chen Fei, “Brother Chen Fei, it seems they don’t intend to back off just because you wield a Dao Spiritual Weapon. On the contrary, they plan to gang up on you.”
“Normal competition,” Chen Fei responded calmly, unfazed. “If I were in their position, I wouldn’t give up easily either. Teaming up to take on the strongest contender is understandable.”
“Are you confident?” Li Qingyi asked with concern. After all, the opposition included four half-step Dao Realm powerhouses, along with many strong ninth-grade peak True Spirit Masters.
“I’ll give it everything I’ve got. This Dao-level opportunity might just be the breakthrough I need to enter the Dao Realm.” Chen Fei’s eyes gleamed with determination. Even if there were four more opponents, he still had strong confidence.
Everyone assumed his trump card was only the Axe Dao Spiritual Weapon—but they didn’t know he also possessed the powerful Void Sky Cauldron.
Now that his Martial Spirit Master cultivation had reached the peak of ninth-grade True Spirit Master, his strength had significantly improved.
As time passed, the mist surrounding the final palace began to fade—signaling that the final battle was about to commence.
Seeing this, many stood up at once, spiritual energy surging around them as they prepared for war.
“It’s starting. I probably won’t be able to help you after this,” Chen Fei said with anticipation, turning to Li Qingyi and the others.
“President Chen, do you need our help?” asked Lin Haochen and Wu Dongbo—two peak ninth-grade True Spirit Masters from the Wanguo Chamber of Commerce.
Though they had received favors from Chen Fei, they hadn’t comprehended the Dao Imprint. Still, they wanted to lend a hand and support him in this final moment.
“I appreciate your kind intentions, seniors. But you should go seize your own opportunities,” Chen Fei gently declined.
Soon after, the mist cleared, and the gate of the final palace opened with a thunderous boom.
At that instant, a surge of rich spiritual energy burst forth from the palace interior.
Everyone sprang into action, racing into the palace to seize the initiative and claim the rare treasures within.
Chen Fei, along with Li Qingyi and the others, didn’t fall behind—they too rushed inside.
The palace was also six stories tall. Unlike the previous levels, there were no separate time-space illusions or phantom beasts—only fields of medicinal gardens filled with rare herbs visible to the naked eye.
These treasures ranged from those useful to Great Spiritual Masters to opportunities for True Spirit Masters—but resources for half-step Dao Realm cultivators were few.
Those who entered rushed madly toward the gardens, fighting to snatch as much as they could.
Chen Fei and his group didn’t stop there. Instead, they flew directly toward the upper levels. Their goal was the Dao-level resources, which only existed on the sixth floor.
Quickly, Chen Fei distanced himself from the others. The crowd behind him thinned as he climbed higher.
The four half-step Dao Realm powerhouses from Qinling were close behind—they shared the same goal: the resources on the sixth floor.
Along with them were several peak ninth-grade True Spirit Masters, acting as support.
Lin Haochen and Wu Dongbo, along with Li Qingyi, only went as far as the fifth floor. Their target was the treasures there.
By the third floor, the herbs were already True Spirit Master-level resources. The higher one went, the better the quality and stronger the medicinal effects.
Only the most confident and powerful peak ninth-grade True Spirit Masters dared climb higher.
Finally, Chen Fei reached the sixth floor first!
The sixth floor held five gardens. Four of them contained two types of floating rare treasures—each exuding extraordinary radiance and clearly of half-step Dao Realm grade.
But the final garden held only one treasure—a single green spirit fruit, glowing faintly with emerald light, its body resembling a translucent jade stone.
This was the highest-grade resource in the entire secret realm: a Dao-level cultivation treasure.
Moments after Chen Fei arrived, the four Qinling half-step Dao Realm cultivators appeared together.
Without hesitation, they launched an assault on Chen Fei—unleashing their spiritual weapons, martial spirits, and techniques in a combined offensive.
They didn’t aim to defeat him—only to entangle him long enough to stop him from claiming the green spirit fruit.
Because behind them, six ninth-grade peak True Spirit Masters were also charging up, abandoning all other treasures to assist their senior brothers in snatching the green fruit.
