There's No One Else Here, So Why Don't We...

"I'm done for, you guys have completely drained me. Let's fight another day!"

Chen Ning begged for mercy repeatedly after losing.

However, all three women looked rather dissatisfied.

I felt like I hadn't had enough fun.

"Sect Leader, I was just having fun, but actually I have something to report to you today."

After Cang Yue put the mahjong tiles into her spatial bag, she suddenly spoke.

Chen Ning looked at her and nodded.

The other party then said, "The Realm of the Firmament is about to open. Please prepare yourself, Sect Leader, and head to Supreme Mystery Peak in three days."

"The Realm of the Firmament?"

Chen Ning frowned slightly, looking puzzled.

He knew Supreme Mystery Peak; it was one of the three main peaks of the Dragon-Seeking Sect.

This is a forbidden area of the sect.

Almost all the leaders of the sect throughout history are buried here.

Not to mention disciples, even elders are not allowed to set foot on Supreme Mystery Peak.

Only after a meeting of the elders can one of the elders be selected to join the council.

Clean up Supreme Mystery Peak.

To put it simply, it's about cleaning.

Apart from this, only the current sect leader is qualified to enter.

However, he was relatively unfamiliar with the Realm of the Firmament.

Cang Yue's beautiful eyes flickered as she pondered, "The Realm of the Firmament opens once every thirty years. It is a secret realm created by the First-Generation Sect Master within the tomb. The sect leader buried here retains a Primordial Spirit. When the Realm of the Firmament opens, subsequent sect leaders can enter it and have the opportunity to see the divine thoughts of past sect leaders, perhaps even gaining some fortuitous fortuitous opportunity or guidance."

Cang Yue paused for a moment, then said, "The Realm of the Firmament Sky is also the most important matter for the Dragon-Seeking Sect."

"Ding! Congratulations, host, for triggering the epic quest [Tracing the Source]!"

"Mission Introduction: As an exceptional sect leader, you have the invaluable opportunity to meet with past masters, learn from their precious experiences, and summarize the sect's development. Please explore the Realm of the Firmament and awaken at least a wisp of divine consciousness within it."

Note: The more divine thoughts of past sect leaders you awaken, the greater the final reward.

Chen Ning was secretly delighted. This was another epic-level mission, but it didn't seem too difficult.

You can ask Cang Yue for information.

So he asked, "When the Realm of the Firmament opened in the past, how many senior sect leaders did the old sect leader meet?"

Upon hearing this, Cang Yue's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly as she said, "The former sect leader reigned for nearly two hundred years and opened the Realm of the Firmament six times, but..."

"Just what?"

"However, despite entering it six times, I failed to witness the divine thoughts of the past sect leaders. Nevertheless, the old sect leader did gain some insights within the Realm of the Firmament, resulting in a significant increase in his strength."

Seemingly worried that Chen Ning might be discouraged, Cang Yue comforted him, "Sect Leader, there's no need to be too concerned. Whether you see him or not is fate, and we can't force it."

Chen Ning was completely dumbfounded.

Good heavens, the old sect leader has entered six times and hasn't seen him even once!

It feels like the difficulty of this task has increased dramatically.

This is simply the most difficult mission in history!

Cang Yue smiled and said, "Sect Leader, please rest well. Verdant Peak now."

Then, she looked at Xiao Mei and asked, "Aren't you going back, little sister?"

"No need for the Elder to trouble himself, I will return now."

The two women felt reassured that as long as neither of them had been alone with the sect leader, they hadn't been taken advantage of, and thus they left with peace of mind.

Watching the two walk away.

Chen Ning felt somewhat tired.

He looked straight at Su Ling'er and moved closer step by step.

"Ling'er..."

As Chen Ning's body drew closer, the little girl's heart began to pound.

"Sect Leader Brother, what... what are you going to do?"

Looking at Su Ling'er's flawless skin so close to his, Chen Ning smiled and said, "There are no outsiders here... so how about..."

"Hmm... that's not a good idea."

Su Ling'er shrank back slightly, her face blushing.

"What's wrong with that? We're all on the same side, how can you win against your own people? My dear Ling'er, quickly return the Origin Stone your sect leader lost to you."

Chen Ning chuckled.

Su Ling'er's face froze slightly, and she blurted out, "That's it?"

"Hmm, what else?"

Chen Ning asked, puzzled.

"Hmph, no way!"

Su Ling'er angrily shoved Chen Ning aside and ran out of the room.

Chen Ning was speechless. How could he charge at someone while dribbling the ball?

Even the usually well-behaved Su Ling'er was disobedient.

Chen Ning appeared quite helpless.

They're so rich, yet they still care about their meager possessions.

Three days later.

On Supreme Mystery Peak.

Although this place is not normally open to the public, today is the day the Realm of the Firmament opens.

An elder is needed to protect the sect leader's safety.

Therefore, the elders were quite excited.

Supreme Mystery Peak is the core secret location of the Dragon-Seeking Sect, and perhaps the whereabouts of the secret treasure are hidden there.

Chen Ning stood at the entrance of the mausoleum, while the other elders guarded the outside.

Before long, a white light appeared in the air, swirling into a vortex, seemingly possessing an unfathomable and strange power.

"Sect Leader, the entrance to the Realm of the Firmament has opened. Please relax and let the power of the secret realm guide you inside."

Behind her, Cang Yue spoke softly.

Chen Ning understood and lowered his guard. Immediately, an extremely strong suction force came from the vortex.

Chen Ning's body was involuntarily sucked into the vortex.

The elders watched the figure disappear before their eyes.

A slight chill ran through him; he wondered if the sect leader could gain anything from the Realm of the Firmament.

"Third Brother Xie, do you think the Sect Leader will be able to see the divine thoughts of past Sect Leaders when he enters the Realm of the Firmament this time?"

Eighth Elder Lin Xiaotian looked at Third Elder, who was standing with his sword on his back, and asked.

"It's hard to say. After all, the previous sect leader was a man of exceptional talent and boundless charm who entered the secret realm six times without ever seeing the divine sense of his predecessors. However, the current sect leader is also an unparalleled figure, reciting sacred words and even forcing the Yama Holy Lord to submit. Whether he can see the divine sense of the previous sect leaders is still unknown."

Upon hearing the Third Elder's words, Cang Yue's beautiful eyes flickered slightly, her fiery red dress trailing on the ground as she silently calculated the time.

The Realm of the Firmament has a time limit for opening.

The sect leader has only half an hour to explore.

Once the time is up, you will be automatically sent out of the secret realm.

And it will take another thirty years before it is opened.

Within the Realm of the Firmament.

Chen Ning opened his eyes, looked at his surroundings, and was slightly taken aback.

The secret realm was like a fairyland, with a clear lake directly in front of it, calm and still, like a mirror.

In the sky, countless clouds piled up together.

It's as beautiful as a painting.

But apart from that, there was nothing else.

The beautiful scenery was breathtaking.

But after looking at it for a long time, it can become monotonous.

After looking around, Chen Ning silently considered a solution.

"Now that we are already in the Realm of the Firmament, all we need to do next is find a way to awaken the divine senses of the past sect leaders."

But how do we wake it up?

Chen Ning fell into deep thought.

The old sect leader came six times but failed to awaken the divine consciousness of his predecessors.

For someone as inexperienced as myself, it's even more difficult.

Although this Realm of the Firmament was created by the First-Generation Sect Master to leave blessings and fortuitous opportunity for future generations.

But future generations have their own fortunes, and unless absolutely necessary, or when the sect faces a crisis, they will not be easily awakened.

This wisp of divine thought can be considered the last trace they left in this world.

How could they bear to awaken for no reason, only to suffer losses and depletion?
