Secret Realm Affairs, the Corpse Immortal Sect's Ninth Elder?

At that moment, Dong Xuanfeng must have sensed the fluctuation and guessed that it was a Secret Realm. After all, he had little experience and had never seen what Secret Realm looked like, so it was just a guess.

Seeing Chu Mo, who had just broken through to the Celestial Phenomenon Realm, confirmed his suspicions once again. Since the Ancestor was not involved in the Dagan, it definitely wasn't the Dagan Imperial Clan's Secret Realm, which was why he assumed it was a new Secret Realm.

It was this confusing, vague, and even imagined message that saved Ancestor Chu Mo's life; without it, the Ancestor would have been sacrificed long ago.

As for the specifics of the Secret Realm, few people know about it unless they come from a top-tier power. Chu Xuanao had also seen records of the Secret Realm in the Imperial Clan's secret records. The Secret Realm is not static; it is born from the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and will naturally dissipate and return to the world.

When a Secret Realm begins to decline, the power that it belongs to will gradually stop producing Heavenly Being Realm experts, slowly decaying until the space itself completely collapses and dissipates, returning to the world. This is also a reshuffling of the world's powers.

As for when the Secret Realm will decay and disappear, no one knows; it is not fixed and there is no pattern to follow.

The ancestor was quite lucky to have found several treasures in what was a dilapidated Secret Realm.

Alright, now we understand. This Ancestor Chu Mo did have a fortuitous encounter, but he didn't possess any secrets that would make even Celestial Phenomenon Realm expert take notice. The [Golden Body Tai Sui] had already been used by the Ancestor.

Just as Chu Xuanao was pondering this, Chu Mo suddenly spoke.

"Your Highness, why don't you send someone to revisit that Secret Realm?"

Chu Xuanao shook his head and said calmly.

"No need, Ancestor. I believe what you say. You are also from my Imperial Clan, and I believe you would consider the overall interests of my Imperial Clan."

Although Chu Mo did not retrieve the [Golden Body Tai Sui], it concerned the Secret Realm and was considered a major event for the prosperity of the entire Imperial Clan. Chu Xuanao believed that Chu Mo had a clear understanding of the situation.

I may fight among myself for some interests and trivial matters, but for a large family, small struggles can actually promote development and boost the morale of its members.

But when it comes to important matters, when external circumstances arise that concern the survival and prosperity of a clan, things are different.

Upon hearing Chu Xuanao's words, Chu Mo seemed to be breathing heavily and glaring at Chu Xuanao as he argued.

"Your Highness, what have you thought of me?"

"What I mean is that when I left, although the Secret Realm was in turmoil, it had not yet completely dissipated. Your Highness can send someone to take a look. If the Secret Realm is still there, there might still be some treasures inside."

"Ahem, please forgive me, Ancestor. I'm still recovering from what you've said."

Chu Xuanao's voice sounded slightly awkward, but he had a smile on his face.

That's worth a look. There might be something good inside. The secret that Dong Xuanfeng hasn't been able to obtain for a hundred years has been revealed by the ancestor today.

Chu Mo didn't care at all. Looking at Chu Xuanao, his eyes were filled with gratitude, and he spoke slowly.

"Your Highness, if that Secret Realm still exists, and if there are any items inside, then that is my token of gratitude. But if the Secret Realm Your Highness vanished, or if there is nothing left inside..."

"Then please Your Highness a while, Your Highness. After I have recovered somewhat, I will return to the Imperial Clan and find some treasures for Your Highness as a token of my gratitude."

"I have no way to repay your life-saving grace. If Your Highness needs anything, please just let me know. As long as it's not a matter of treason, I will not hesitate to help."

Chu Xuanao patted Chu Mo's hand, his expression calm, but a slight smile played on his lips as he spoke.

"I've already said it, Ancestor, there's no need for this. As fellow members of the Imperial Clan, this is what I should do. Knowing the situation, how could I stand by and watch someone die?"

Chu Mo immediately revealed the location of that dilapidated Secret Realm.

"Your Highness, that dilapidated Secret Realm is located in the Ten Thousand Great Mountains. Secret Realm all have special methods of entry. Unless a Heavenly Being Realm expert breaks through it directly with the power of heaven and earth, it is impossible to enter."

I stumbled upon it by chance and figured out some of the patterns of that Secret Realm. Its entrance is...

Ten Thousand Great Mountains?

A strange light flashed in Chu Xuanao's eyes. What a coincidence!

Gangzi said he would also travel through the Ten Thousand Great Mountains when he returned, so let's just let Yuan Tiangang go and see when he comes back!

This will save him the trouble of arranging for more people.

"When I was investigating the information about the Ancestor, I didn't find any information about these things. So, the mission when the Ancestor disappeared was in the Ten Thousand Great Mountains?" Chu Xuanao asked with a hint of certainty.

Chu Mo did not answer the question immediately, but glanced at Li Xunhuan before speaking.

"Your Highness, this matter involves a secret of our Imperial Clan, but..."

Chu Mo stopped speaking at this point, and seeing his expression, Chu Xuanao and Li Xunhuan understood what he meant.

Li Xunhuan stood up and addressed the two men.

"Your Highness, I will go down first and wait outside."

Chu Xuanao nodded, but Chu Mo suddenly asked Li Xunhuan a question.

"Mister Li, please wait a moment. After Dong Xuanfeng died, is his body still there? He died so easily; I am not pleased!"

Upon hearing this, Li Xunhuan stopped in his tracks, somewhat suspicious. This person truly harbored deep hatred; even after death, he wanted to desecrate the corpse?

Looking at Chu Xuanao, and receiving a signal from His Your Highness, Li Xunhuan then answered Chu Mo.

"Dong Xuanfeng's body is still there. It should have been collected and buried by the Dong Clan family, but I haven't noticed the exact location."

Hearing that the body was still there, a sharp glint of joy flashed in Chu Mo's eyes. "Old dog Dong, just wait, our business isn't over yet!"

Chu Mo spoke with a hint of satisfaction in his tone.

Thank you very much, Mister Li.

After Li Xunhuan left, Chu Mo forced himself to stay upright and began to circulate his internal energy. His true energy enveloped the room, and a pale golden light, seemingly wriggling, spread throughout the space, isolating it from the outside world. Unless Chu Mo's protective aura was broken, no sound could be heard from within.

Seeing the ancestor's isolation, Chu Xuanao was not surprised, but thinking of the ancestor's expression when he learned that the corpse was still there, Chu Xuanao asked with a hint of doubt.

"Ancestor, Dong Xuanfeng is already dead, what are you doing?"

Could it be that this ancestor really intends to dig up the grave and whip the corpse?

A fierce glint flashed in Chu Mo's eyes as he spoke angrily.

"Your Highness, how can we let Dong Xuanfeng so easily end this century of humiliation and torment? I am unwilling to accept it! I cannot quell the hatred in my heart."

Recalling his experiences over the years, Chu Mo's eyes flashed with bloodlust, his body trembled slightly, and he spoke through gritted teeth.

"I will refine Dong Xuanfeng into an ancient corpse, and make him kill the Dong Clan's disciples with his own hands. I will make him destroy his own Dong Clan, slaughter his own clan, and exterminate his own nine generations of relatives."

"Then they will be ground to ashes and their peace will be shattered forever."

Looking at this ancestor, listening to his hoarse voice, and hearing his actions, even Chu Xuanao couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

However, Chu Xuanao became interested in the method of corpse refining, which reminded him of the good material in the treasury of the Prince's Mansion in his fiefdom. He asked with great interest.

"The Ancestor is also proficient in the art of corpse refining?"

Various schools of strange arts have emerged throughout the world, with the Corpse Immortal Corpse Immortal Sect being the most famous for its corpse refining techniques.

Upon hearing Chu Xuanao's question, Chu Mo's face flashed with a hint of pride as he replied.

"Of course, back in the day I was the Ninth Elder of the Corpse Immortal Sect."

Chu Xuanao immediately showed a hint of surprise.

"Does the Ancestor still have connections with the Corpse Immortal Sect?"

"There's a connection? What does that mean?" Chu Mo frowned and asked directly.

"Contact? You don't know?"
