Three Blazing Flame Palace's Secret Realm
At the border of Red Tide County and Seven Ultimates County, there is a large and Perilous Land known as the Southern Forbidden Secret Forest.
It's called that because a peculiar feng shui formation surrounds this place; stepping into it is like entering a forbidden formation.
In the Southern Forbidden Secret Forest, stretching for seven thousand miles, there are no birds.
This place is naturally off-limits to air travel and is filled with an inexplicable oppressive force.
It felt like gravity, or perhaps the oppressive aura of High-Rank Cultivator.
In short, moving around in the Southern Forbidden Secret Forest is extremely inconvenient.
In the outside world, it's common for Cultivators to travel a thousand miles a day.
However, within the Southern Forbidden Secret Forest, those who can travel a thousand miles a day are definitely among the best Foundation Establishment Cultivators, at least at the Foundation Establishment Late Stage.
Besides the physical limitations, the Southern Forbidden Secret Forest is also fraught with various dangers.
Poisonous insects, Fierce Beasts, Demon Beast, evil spirits... the endless dangers are enough to make people tremble with fear.
However, despite being such a Perilous Land, tens of thousands of cultivators enter it every year.
The reason is simple: self-interest.
The Southern Forbidden Secret Forest is rich in spirit medicine and mineral resources.
Jade Marrow Fruit, Heavenheart Flower, Purple Jade Grass, Divine Dragon Wood, Gilded Gold Stone, White Rock Iron... If all the spirit medicine and mineral resources produced annually in the Southern Forbidden Secret Forest were collected, it would be enough to support several Golden Core Force.
That's why no one can have this place all to themselves.
Even the Luochuan Sect has to consider the opinions of its subordinate forces and can only build cities on the Outer Periphery to make a profit. The dominant sects also have many helpless situations.
On this day, an explosive piece of news suddenly spread from the Southern Forbidden City, located on the eastern side of the Southern Forbidden Secret Forest.
The Three Blazing Flame Palace Secret Realm has been discovered by Cultivators!
This explosive news immediately attracted the attention of major powers.
They all sent people into the Southern Forbidden Secret Forest to Detection.
The news was quickly confirmed.
In the central area of Southern Forbidden Secret Forest, about 800 li to the west, the Secret Realm of the Commandery-Level Sect, Three Blazing Flame Palace, appeared.
At the Purple Moon Mountain, as the Ten-Thousand-Mile Mountains and Rivers Formation continuously draws upon the Earth Vein's energy, the mountain rises steadily, now reaching a height of 1,500 zhang.
At the mountaintop, the Yun Hai grew even more ethereal, and the rich Spiritual Qi surrounding the area made it seem like Immortal Realm.
In front of the Bamboo House, Yang Tianyou and Yang Haoyu sat facing each other, while Yang Xuanyun was already twenty years old, stood quietly beside them.
Several more years passed, and the girl blossomed into an even more graceful and elegant young woman.
Moreover, because she has never set foot in the mortal world, she seems to be surrounded by an aura of otherworldliness, like an unapproachable fairy from the moon palace, who can only be admired from afar and not touched.
"Old Ancestor, did you summon me here for some important matter?" Yang Tianyou took a sip of this year's newly harvested Ginkgo Spirit Tea and asked with a smile.
"News has come from the Shadow Hall that the Three Blazing Flame Palace Secret Realm has been discovered in the Southern Forbidden Secret Forest. It seems our Lineage will have to make a move this time!" Yang Haoyu raised her eyebrows slightly and took out a Jade Slip, handing it to Yang Tianyou.
"This is the information I've compiled about the Three Blazing Flame Palace. Please take a look!"
"Three Blazing Flame Palace?"
Yang Tianyou's heart stirred, and he suddenly remembered a token he had obtained when he was in the Qi Refining Realm.
However, since things were still uncertain, he did not take out the token immediately. Instead, he probed the Jade Slip with his Spiritual Awareness to browse the information inside.
The Three Blazing Flame Palace was one of the two dominant forces in Luochuan Commandery a thousand years ago. It was extremely powerful, with Spirit Transformation cultivator in charge of the sect!
However, just when this sect was at its peak...
Overnight, everything vanished.
The once Spiritual Qi rich sect headquarters is now just a deep crater.
The Spirit Veins, the Spirit Mountains, and the towering, majestic buildings have all vanished.
Even the Three Blazing Flame City, with a population of twenty million, was instantly deserted, leaving only an empty city.
All of this seemed so bizarre that it became an unsolved mystery in Luochuan Commandery and even Qin Province!
In the aftermath, various speculations emerged.
Some say that the Luochuan Sect secretly killed him.
Some say that a peerless Yaomo was born, which brought down the once-prosperous Three Blazing Flame Palace.
Even more outrageous, some cultivators speculated that the Three Blazing Flame Palace might have done something wrong and was Heavenly Punishment by heaven.
Numerous flawed speculations circulated, but as time passed, they were gradually forgotten.
Now, there are not many cultivators in Luochuan Commandery who still remember the Three Blazing Flame Palace. Most of them are recorded in the sect's books and are kept in their houses.
Call!--
After reviewing the information, Yang Tianyou let out a long sigh, his expression turning serious.
The appearance of a Secret Realm belonging to a Commandery-Level Sect signifies something far more extraordinary.
The inheritance, resources, the Secret Realm itself, and the unsolved mystery that led to the sudden disappearance of the Three Blazing Flame Palace will all deeply attract the attention of the major forces in Luochuan Commandery.
"Is the news that the Secret Realm will open in six months accurate?" Yang Tianyou asked.
"Accurate. This information was personally obtained by a Fourth-Tier High-Grade Formation Master from the Luochuan Sect. Other sects have also sent people to Detection, and it has been confirmed that the entrance to the Three Blazing Flame Palace Secret Realm will officially allow cultivators to enter in six months, however..." Yang Haoyu hesitated.
"What's wrong?" Yang Tianyou asked quickly.
"However, there are certain restrictions on entering the Three Blazing Flame Palace Secret Realm. Only cultivators at the Foundation Establishment or below can enter. Once a cultivator at the Golden Core Realm or above enters, the gate to the Secret Realm will immediately close!"
"Only cultivators below the Foundation Establishment are allowed to enter?"
Yang Tianyou was taken aback. Wasn't this a good thing?
With his combat strength, he has already reached the peak of the Foundation Establishment.
Seeing his expression, Yang Haoyu naturally understood what his grandson was thinking.
Shaking his head helplessly, Yang Haoyu said with a heavy expression, "I'm afraid there's something in the Three Blazing Flame Palace Secret Realm that you can't withstand. You know, the reason why the Three Blazing Flame Palace suddenly perished a thousand years ago has never been found. It's really unsettling not to know the reason!"
"Is that so...?"
Yang Tianyou rubbed his chin with his left hand, his right palm facing down on the table, his eyes gleaming.
After a moment, he smiled nonchalantly, "Old Ancestor, why think so much? Where in the Cultivation World is there no danger? The higher the risk, the greater the opportunity!"
"Besides, we're definitely not the only ones who entered the Three Blazing Flame Palace Secret Realm this time."
"Rogue Cultivators, Golden Core Force, Foundation Establishment Lineage, and even the Luochuan Sect."
"With so many people sharing the burden, even if there's danger, they'll definitely be the first people I turn to. Don't you know how capable I am of protecting myself?" Yang Tianyou said reassuringly.
"Forget it, perhaps the Lineage has been at peace for a while, which has worn down my fighting spirit. Just as you said, where is there no danger?"
Yang Haoyu sighed, then rallied his spirits, "Since we're heading to the Southern Forbidden Secret Forest, we should first decide on the number of people we'll send!"
