That day, Wei Zhong took down the birdcage in the courtyard and put Nine Colors into the Spirit Beast bag.

He changed his appearance, cast a Breath Concealment Technique, put on a large black robe and hood, and headed to the market.

Today was the day the secret realm opened.

It seemed that due to the special nature of the day, a large number of people gathered in the market, many of whom had traveled from afar.

Wei Zhong's attire was inconspicuous in the crowd.

The hawking in the market had continued for two years without stopping, and was even more enthusiastic because of the opening of the secret realm today.

"Boom!"

A thunderclap in the clear sky, and a figure stood in the sky above the market.

"It's a Core Formation cultivator, Zhao Bai, the master of the Artifact Hall of the Azurewood Sect. It is rumored that he follows the path of Body Cultivator, and his physical strength is so strong that he can withstand a third-order magic weapon. I didn't expect that he would be the one to preside over the opening of this secret realm today."

Those who were well-informed among the cultivators had already recognized the person's origin.

Wei Zhong looked at his body traversing the void, and a hint of curiosity appeared.

The path of Body Cultivator seems not bad.

Most of the abilities of a Spirit Cultivator rely on spiritual power. If the spiritual power is exhausted during a fight, the decline in strength will be extremely terrifying.

Unlike Body Cultivators who rely on their own physique, there is a hint of using one force to break all laws.

"Fellow cultivators, I will be in charge of opening this secret realm this time..."

The sound of his voice was like thunder, and all the cultivators below could hear it clearly.

"His voice is like thunder, could it be that he cultivates a thunder-type body refining art?" Wei Zhong guessed secretly.

"Those who intend to explore the secret realm, please follow me with your tokens. All others, please step back."

After speaking, he turned into a long rainbow and flew towards the Azurewood Sect's mountain gate, leaving a golden mark in the air.

The entrance is indeed within the mountain gate?

Wei Zhong followed the crowd.

At the same time, the voice of the Elder Zhao came from his ear:

"Follow the rainbow light and don't stray too far, otherwise you will trigger the restrictions, and you will bear the consequences."

At this moment, no one wanted to cause trouble at this critical moment, and the cultivators followed the long rainbow closely.

Some controlled flying swords, and some cast spells.

Wei Zhong stepped on auspicious clouds, one step after another, his speed was not slow at all, and he followed the golden rainbow light to a valley.

Many Azurewood Sect disciples were already waiting here. They were divided into three teams, and there were also scattered true disciples lined up on each side.

The Pill Hall master was floating in the air.

Seeing that the rogue cultivators had arrived, he shouted:

"Fellow disciples, please lend this old man a hand."

"As Hall Master commands!!!"

A streak of silver light rose from Zhao Bai's embrace, and six golden rays of light also emanated from the hands of the disciples, converging into one point.

The two lights combined to form a dazzling "sun" in the air, and even Zhao Bai, this Core Formation Body Cultivator, could not withstand its power and fell to the ground.

The cultivators were even more apprehensive, as if something terrible was about to happen.

The void was torn apart by the dazzling light, revealing a gap, and through it, one could vaguely see the beautiful scenery within.

The gap grew larger and larger, eventually stopping at ten zhang, and the "sun" was extinguished.

Only then did the sense of terror in the hearts of the cultivators dissipate.

"The secret realm is open, why don't you enter?"

"Thunder" sounded, and the sect disciples and rogue cultivators entered one after another.

Seeing the cultivators enter, Zhao Bai muttered in a low voice:

"The power of the void is terrifying. Senior Brother is right, this void passage to open the secret realm is so unstable, it seems that the secret realm really can't be preserved."

Then he said to the surrounding disciples:

"You guys stay here and guard the passage."

"Yes!"

Then he turned into a golden light and disappeared.

"Hall Master's thunder technique is getting more and more refined. This Golden Thunder Art is indeed a thunder-type Body Cultivation technique, domineering and abnormal. Just now, my mind was almost captured by it. Hall Master's cultivation is probably not far from the Mid-stage Core Formation stage."

The remaining disciples praised, turning their gazes to Luo Zhigang, the fifth true disciple.

"Don't look at me, how can we casually discuss Master's cultivation? Let's guard the passage and prevent anyone from sabotaging it."

"Senior Brother is joking, this is the heartland of our sect, how dare any evil cultivators risk entering this place."

Despite saying so, everyone focused their attention on the void passage in mid-air, and then dispersed to guard the surroundings.

"How is it?"

It was Zhao Bai who had left, looking at Duan Delong carrying a half-dead figure.

"Three came, I killed one, and Junior Sister Yu went to catch the other two."

Zhao Bai pulled open the face towel of the corpse and asked in confusion:

"Where did this little brat come from?"

Duan Delong shook his head:

"I don't know. Our Azurewood Sect has been passed down for so many years, and we have at least eight hundred enemies. Apart from a body of demonic magic, this person doesn't show any other characteristics."

As soon as he finished speaking, another voice rang out:

"I have some discoveries, you two might as well take a look."

It turned out that Yu Xianglan had chased back the other two intruders and threw them on the ground.

The corpses' clothes were deliberately torn, revealing inhuman features such as 'scales and tails'.

"Demon cultivators?"

Both of them were taken aback.

Most human immortal cultivators practice spiritual techniques, and only those with insufficient talent, trapped in their realms, would practice demonic techniques to seek breakthroughs, which would result in various demonic beast characteristics appearing on their bodies.

"These are the claws of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range!"

In recent years, the human immortal cultivation world has been eyeing the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, and the demonic beasts in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range have been doing the same.

"Three Foundation Establishment, one demon and two demons, they are really willing to invest."

Zhao Bai sneered.

"I wonder which fool bewitched this demon brat to break into my Azurewood Sect. Does he think my Azurewood Sect's protective formation is just for show?"

"We can't say that," Yu Xianglan waved her sleeve, and two sharp cones appeared in mid-air.

"Second-order Restriction Breaking Cones?"

Cold sweat broke out on Zhao Bai's forehead. If the two had activated these two items when he opened the passage, it would have destroyed the opening of the secret realm.

At the same time, the surrounding Qi Refining cultivators, whether they were sect disciples or rogue cultivators, would have been affected. He could only protect six Foundation Establishment disciples at most to leave.

Thinking of this, he felt a burst of fear in his heart.

Duan Delong was a little calmer. With the two of them protecting him, there would definitely be no mistakes.

"Junior Sister's strength has grown. She was even able to capture and kill them before they could even use the Restriction Breaking Cones."

"Senior Brother is too kind. However, this matter still needs to be reported to the Sect Leader for a decision."

"That's how it should be!"

Wei Zhong only felt a spinning sensation, and when he opened his eyes, he found that he had left the green valley and arrived in the secret realm.

Above was a blue sky, underfoot was gray rock, and around him were undulating mountains.

It truly lived up to its name, the 'Qingchuan Secret Realm'.

Stepping on auspicious clouds, Wei Zhong checked the surrounding terrain.

This place should be on the edge of Sunset Glow Valley, not far from Mist Ridge Cliff, one of the places where the 'Jade Marrow Mushroom' grows.

Good luck, I have a chance to arrive before others.

Wei Zhong took out his magic sword and held it in his hand. Now that he had entered the secret realm, he had to be careful. The clouds and mist rose under his feet, and when they dissipated, Wei Zhong's figure was no longer visible.
