The Tree Abyss Secret Realm Agreement
Dark Universe.
Marquis Justice sat atop a cosmic transport ship, which sped at two hundred times the speed of light, traversing Human Race Territory and sweeping across the endless, desolate void.
After three years, the transport ship finally slowed down, left the Dark Universe, and its destination was in sight.
"Whoosh~"
The hatch opened, and Marquis Justice lightly leaped out of the cabin with a light touch of her toes. The sight before her eyes caused a hint of surprise to flash in her eyes. It was the Tree Abyss Secret Realm, which could be called a treasure even within the Human Race Territory.
Outside the secret realm, spatial turbulence and mysterious gales surged and collided violently, forming a natural barrier a million kilometers thick. The gales were chilling and could directly erode the very foundation of the Immortal Divine Body; the spatial turbulence twisted and tore, easily disintegrating the energy condensed by the divine body.
Here, only King Level expert can use their immense Divine Power to isolate the double impact and forcibly open a path.
According to Human Race records, the Tree Abyss Secret Realm contains four treasures, each of which is enough to make even Immortal Expert flock to it.
The first treasure is the Void Crystal God Tree. This tree grows very slowly, producing only ten fruits every million years. Moreover, its consumption is subject to extremely strict restrictions; it must be swallowed on the spot under the divine tree.
The fruit can not only rapidly repair fatal injuries to Immortal Divine Body, but also greatly enhance a cultivator's understanding of Space Law.
The second treasure is the Void Crystal. This type of crystal does not need to be mined; it is ubiquitous in the secret realm and can be formed out of thin air. It has an amplifying effect on the Space Origin Law for Human Race cultivators at the World Lord Rank and below.
The third treasure is the Spirit Source Liquid of the Void Crystal God Tree, whose healing effects are comparable to top-grade divine pills, capable of quickly soothing the wounds of Immortal Divine Body; the leaves of the divine tree, after being refined using special methods, can also be made into "Soul Awakening Powder," which is sufficient to break most soul-related secret techniques.
The fourth treasure is the nine ancient stone altars surrounding the divine tree. These are the places of worship and Inheritance Land for the Spirit Plant Race. Hidden beneath the stone altars is the <Wither-Bloom Secret Canon> left behind by the Spirit Plant Race, which records the top-level secret techniques for controlling the wood and space elements. Even King Level expert can benefit greatly from studying it.
What the Marquis Justice was most familiar with was the enormous Golden Divine Temple that floated above the secret realm.
That was Heavy Treasure palace bestowed upon Master King Iron Face by his clan. It was with the blessing of this Divine Temple that King Iron Face was able to become famous and awe-inspiring among Human Race.
Marquis Justice connected to the Virtual Universe and methodically processed the approval procedures for entering the secret realm, filled with anticipation.
Logically speaking, this was her master's private Divine Temple, and as his personal disciple, she should have been able to approach it at will and had the authority to come and go freely. However, she knew that her master was impartial and valued rules above all else, and if she entered without permission, she would inevitably be severely reprimanded.
A moment later, a slight ripple appeared in the void, and the King Iron Face's figure Teleportation in front of the Marquis Justice.
He still had that stern expression, his face with its sharp, chiseled features, and a long, black sword hanging at his waist. Only when he caught sight of his disciple did his sharp eyes soften slightly.
"Master!" Marquis Justice bowed respectfully.
The King Iron Face nodded slightly, his tone calm yet tinged with approval. "Including you, all ten selected candidates for this batch are now present. You happen to be the tenth, which is perfect timing."
Having said that, he waved his hand, and a gentle divine Divine Power enveloped the Marquis Justice, bringing her back into the Golden Divine Temple.
Inside the Divine Temple, nine other Immortal God Human Race had already gathered.
These men were all extraordinary, their faces radiating unparalleled confidence and high spirits. Their armor and weapons Flowing Light and intricately patterned, clearly priceless treasures.
Upon seeing Marquis Justice enter, everyone rushed forward to strike up a conversation.
However, they kept mentioning family power, the general trend of the Human Race, and the secrets of the Venerable... Marquis Justice stood aside and couldn't get a word in edgewise.
What made her even more embarrassed was that when people found out she didn't know any important figures or have any powerful background, they all looked surprised and gradually became indifferent, no longer talking to her, and even subtly excluding her from their circle.
With several days still remaining before the opening of the secret realm, Marquis Justice, bored out of his mind, unknowingly wandered into the main hall of the Divine Temple.
The King Iron Face sat upright on his high throne, his eyes slightly closed. Clearly, part of his consciousness was patrolling the area around the secret realm, while the other part was immersed in handling clan affairs in the Virtual Universe.
"Master." Upon seeing the King Iron Face, the Marquis Justice felt immediately at ease.
Hundreds of thousands of years ago, she passed the clan's assessment and entered the cosmic galaxy. She was fortunate enough to be accepted as the King Iron Face's only disciple, and for the next hundreds of thousands of years, she followed her master. Although her master was always serious and rigid, he always protected her behind him. Whenever she encountered difficulties, her master would always step forward to help her.
In her heart, the King Iron Face had long surpassed the relationship between teacher and student; she was even closer to him than to her own father.
The King Iron Face slowly opened his eyes, his gaze falling on her. He cautioned, "This secret realm is located outside the Human Race Territory, surrounded by dangers. You must be extremely careful."
Marquis Justice was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said, "With Master here to oversee things, who would dare to offend us?"
It should be known that Master is no ordinary King Rank, but a King-level expert who has mastered the ultimate secret technique and possesses both Heavy Treasure Divine Temple and Heavy Treasure King Rank. Even when facing Venerable, he has the ability to maneuver and escape.
King Anle, a minor King Rank who indulges in pleasure all day long and neglects his duties, could probably be easily crushed by his master with a single strike.
King Iron Face said in a deep voice, "The former owners of this secret realm Spirit Plant Race, are still active in the universe."
A few years ago, their Venerable personally sought me out, wanting me to compensate for the loss of "two or three fruits of the Void Crystal God Tree" and to replicate the inheritance beneath the stone altar. He offered extremely generous compensation terms, which I refused outright.
Otherwise, with fewer than 10 slots available for this secret realm inheritance, you probably wouldn't have gotten a chance.
He changed the subject abruptly, asking, "I remember you were guarding the Solar System before. Did you perhaps perform some great service to earn this spot in the secret realm?"
Marquis Justice was not surprised at all that his master had rejected the Alien Race Venerable, after all, those who are not of his race are bound to have different intentions.
She answered honestly, "Reporting to Master, this disciple has not made any great contributions; I have only handled routine official duties in the Solar System. It was King Anle who saw how diligent I was in my work, so he helped me apply for the title of Outstanding Manager and incidentally granted me this secret realm resource."
A hint of surprise flashed in the King Iron Face's eyes.
Only he knew how fierce the competition for a spot in the Tree Abyss Secret Realm was. Over the years, not only had Alien Race forces secretly negotiated with him, but at least three Venerable within the Human Race had personally approached him, wanting to secure a spot for one of their subordinates.
"It seems that the background of this King Anle is far more profound than it appears on the surface," he murmured to himself.
Marquis Justice Zhengyi nodded repeatedly, then remembered something and said with a smile, "By the way, Master, that King Anle even appointed his servant as manager on the spot. He's quite domineering and willful. Master, why is this King Anle so powerful? Why don't you go and ask the Hong Alliance?"
The Hong Alliance is the gathering place of the Human Race and countless vassal races. It is the most well-informed place, and most of the information in the Primal Universe can be found there.
Upon hearing this, the King Iron Face fell silent.
He has been devoted to the tasks assigned to him by his clan for tens of millions of years, rarely venturing into the Virtual Universe. He usually shops directly through the Race Treasury and has never made any friends in the Hong Alliance.
In this way, even if one wanted to inquire about information, one wouldn't know who to ask.
After a moment's thought, he looked at the Marquis Justice and said calmly, "Why don't you ask within your clan?"
Marquis Justice was stunned for a moment.
She didn't even have access to the Hong Alliance, and as for the industry, she had no close friends. Moreover, she considered herself to be gentle and sincere, but for some reason, people would stop talking to her after a while.
Her only close friend among the industry's high-ranking officials is King Anle; she can't very well ask him directly, can she?
Who should we ask then?
For a moment, the master and disciple looked at each other in bewilderment, and an eerie silence fell over the hall.
