Chapter 1139: Celestial Joy Sect

"Grape, have you detected these four giant beasts of Xuanhuang aura?" Xu Fan asked with a smile.

"They are hidden within the Xuanhuang aura, existing in crystal form, so they can’t be detected unless they reveal themselves," Grape replied.

"Including these four giant beasts, the Xuanhuang aura in this secret realm could amount to 13,000 crystals," Grape said with evident joy.

"Husband, is 13,000 crystals enough? If not, I can think of something," Zhang Weiyun asked with concern.

"For now, it’s sufficient. More Xuanhuang aura is always better, and I’ll need your help later," Xu Fan quickly responded, appreciating her supportive attitude.

"Alright, whenever you’re short on Xuanhuang aura, we’ll go out together to find more," Zhang Weiyun nodded.

The two chatted intimately, completely ignoring the four fierce giant beasts.

Xu Fan smiled at his wife and lightly raised his hand.

Instantly, the four giant beasts with Golden Immortal fighting strength burst like eggs, their rich Xuanhuang aura splattering everywhere, and then Grape collected it all.

Soon, a grand formation designed to gather Xuanhuang aura appeared in the sky, beginning to absorb the Xuanhuang aura from the secret realm.

At that moment, the two noticed the beautiful scenery of the secret realm.

Xu Fan looked into the distance and saw a structure resembling a sect gate at the foot of a beautiful mountain.

"This formation will take some time to absorb the Xuanhuang aura; let’s check out that place over there. Maybe we’ll find other surprises," Xu Fan suggested, pointing toward the mountain.

"I’ll follow your lead, husband~," Zhang Weiyun said, tightly wrapping her arm around Xu Fan, just like a young couple in love.

With a slight smile, Xu Fan took Zhang Weiyun’s hand and stepped out, arriving at the foot of the mountain.

"The Celestial Joy Sect appeared during the ancient times, with records indicating it existed in the Immortal Realm for 20 million years before vanishing, and no records have been found since."

Before Xu Fan could ask, Grape’s information analysis came in.

"The highest known figure from the Celestial Joy Sect was a quasi-saint, but after leaving the Wood Origin Immortal Realm, he vanished without a trace."

As Xu Fan strolled through the ruins of the Celestial Joy Sect with Zhang Weiyun, he listened to Grape’s explanation as if on a guided tour.

"This sect has something strange about it!" Xu Fan remarked, sensing the aura of the ruins.

"There are various theories about the disappearance of the Celestial Joy Sect, with the most accepted being that they took things that did not belong to them."

At that moment, Xu Fan and Zhang Weiyun arrived in front of the largest palace.

When they approached, the grand doors of the palace seemed to sense their presence and gently opened.

Inside the hall sat a deceased Great Luo Sage of the human race.

"What troubles led you to take your own life?" Xu Fan shook his head as he looked at the seated Great Luo Sage.

Xu Fan extended his hand gently toward the Great Luo Sage and tapped his finger on the sage’s brow.

"Husband, what do you sense?" Zhang Weiyun asked curiously from the side.

"He was the last sect leader of the Celestial Joy Sect, driven mad by an invasion from extraterrestrial demons during his cultivation. He slaughtered the entire sect with his own hands."

"Realizing the heavy sins he had committed after regaining sanity, he chose to perish here alongside the extraterrestrial demon."

"Even now, a Great Luo level extraterrestrial demon remains trapped within him; it’s been countless billions of years," Xu Fan sighed, then released the Great Luo level extraterrestrial demon.

"Jie jie jie jie…"

"Thank you for your…"

An evil voice began to speak, but Xu Fan quickly silenced it, transforming it into a ball of extraterrestrial demon source energy in his hand.

"No need to thank me," Xu Fan said lightly, storing the energy in the space of the celestial tool.

Zhang Weiyun smiled at the sight.

"Husband, your methods are just like my master’s—straight to the point."

"Of course, that’s what makes a true expert," Xu Fan replied.

He searched the ruins of the Celestial Joy Sect and found a large number of celestial tools and postnatal Spiritual Treasures.

Eventually, he even discovered a top-tier postnatal Spiritual Treasure.

"Wife, you truly are the Spirit body of great fortune; you always seem to attract what we need," Xu Fan remarked.

At this time, the Hidden Spirit Sect Disciple was advancing toward the Golden Immortal era, and they needed many postnatal Spiritual Treasures, making this trip to the heavens quite fruitful.

"Compared to me, my senior sisters are even more extraordinary. When they want something, they just call out to the sky, and sometimes things fall from the sky like meteors toward them."

Thinking of her senior sisters, Zhang Weiyun’s face showed a look of nostalgia.

"If you want to see your senior sisters, you can go to Wanquing Island; can’t you move freely now?" Xu Fan suggested.

"I could in the past; I could return to Wanquing Island anytime, but after my master left, he took away the imprint inside me. If I want to visit my senior sisters, I have to walk back slowly," Zhang Weiyun explained.

"This old…" Xu Fan started to speak but felt a sense of danger and quickly stopped.

"I’ll have to take you there someday."

As the formation in the sky absorbed all the Xuanhuang aura from the secret realm, Xu Fan and Zhang Weiyun appeared above the Nine Heavens on the Immortal Hidden Ship.

As soon as they arrived, Xu Fan saw the Holy Sun Star’s projection illuminating the entire Immortal Realm.

Xu Fan stared at the projection of the Holy Sun Star for a long time and couldn’t help but say, "I wonder where the main body of the Holy Sun Star is."

In the Three Thousand Realms, everyone knew about the Holy Sun Star, but very few knew its actual location.

"Husband, my master once said that the Holy Sun Star is located in the outer realms, rotating around the entire Three Thousand Realms, shining on each realm," Zhang Weiyun explained.

"So it’s in the outer realms; never mind then," Xu Fan sighed lightly, feeling his grand vision of a Dyson Sphere plan had crumbled.

"If you want to find the Holy Sun Star, you can take me along; I’m very good at finding things."

"That’s a must~"

The Immortal Hidden Ship sailed randomly above the Nine Heavens.

Perhaps the secret realm had used up their luck, as the Immortal Hidden Ship flew for a long time before finally locating a few Spiritual Treasure-level celestial mines.

Xu Fan felt that the Nine Heavens were rather dull, so he decided to return to the Hidden Spirit Sect.

In the Hidden Spirit Sect’s treasury, Xu Fan handed several filled space celestial tools to Grape, instructing him to arrange them as he saw fit.

In the cultivation room, Xu Fan looked at the over 10,000 crystals of Xuanhuang aura and felt a bit dazed.

It was like a hardworking young man earning over 10,000, spending it joyfully on an outing with his wife, only to find another 10,000 just lying around; the impact of such fortune was easy to imagine.
