This scene caused all the cultivators in front of the portal to take a few steps back.
"Ha, how foolish! This is the secret realm of the Tribulation Transcendence Realm expert. Did you really think just any trash could enter?"
A Taunt voice echoed from the sky.
Everyone couldn't help but look over. This person was wearing a suit of golden armor and standing on a Greatsword that was also golden.
Thick eyebrows, wide mouth, long face, and hooked nose.
He looked young, but his face was full of arrogance, and he looked at everyone as if they were ants.
Many cultivators who were initially furious instantly lost their anger upon seeing who was speaking.
Most people were dissatisfied, but no one dared to say anything, which clearly indicated that this person was not a simple individual.
"This cave dwelling and secret realm has caught the eye of our Heavenly Cloud Sect. Get out of here! Leave within ten breaths, or face the consequences!"
Anyone who didn't know better would think this guy was some kind of powerful Big Shot.
In reality, he was only at the Foundation Establishment Stage, Third Layer, not even reaching the Mid Foundation Establishment Stage.
For a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator to be so arrogant shows just how weak the cultivators in South Cloud Province really are.
Despite what this golden-haired fellow said, not many people actually left.
After all, it is a rare and precious cave dwelling for those at the Tribulation Transcendence Realm. In a small place like South Cloud Province, the Tribulation Transcendence Realm is already the pinnacle of strength.
There must be a reason behind this.
Nobody wants to miss out like this.
Moreover, with nearly a thousand cultivators present, representing dozens of sects of Xiaoxiao, even if the Heavenly Cloud Sect had Late Foundation Establishment expert in charge, they wouldn't dare offend so many cultivation sects at once, would they?
Just then, a figure slowly floated into the air.
The man was dressed in white, extremely handsome and refined-looking, and appeared to be around thirty years old.
"So who is so arrogant? It's Junior Brother Li Xuan. Aren't you afraid of being beaten to death by your ancestor when you go back, causing so much trouble for your Heavenly Cloud Sect?"
" Zhao Cheng, does your Vast Righteousness Sect want to oppose my Heavenly Cloud Sect?" Li Xuan said angrily.
"How dare I? Your Heavenly Cloud Sect is so powerful, yet you don't even consider our 212 cultivation sects in South Cloud Province, with 100,000 Qi Refining, Wu Bai Foundation Establishment cultivators, and 13 Golden Core cultivators, as a threat."
"It seems your Heavenly Cloud Sect has produced at least a Nascent Soul Stage ancestor!"
Li Xuan's face darkened. Where did the Heavenly Cloud Sect Nascent Soul ancestor?
Zhao Cheng's words were clearly Taunt to him.
Without Nascent Soul cultivator as your ancestor, what are you pretending for?
Li Xuan certainly wouldn't dare to offend all the cultivation sects. Although his Heavenly Cloud Sect was considered one of the top sects in South Cloud Province, its strength wasn't among the best.
He said that before only to try and use the name to see if he could monopolize this secret cave.
The caves and secret realms of those at the Tribulation Transcendence Realm are of immense value, so using some coercive methods is understandable.
If these people are intimidated and leave, that's best; if not, then we'll see.
Li Xuan completely ignored Zhao Cheng's sarcasm.
He's not really a fool.
"It's a rare find for our South Cloud Province to have such a secluded cave dwelling. Naturally, it's a great opportunity for us. Before opportunities, everyone is equal."
"However, this cave is ultimately dangerous. If your strength is insufficient, it's best to enter in a team!"
" The Gate of the Secret Realm is not yet fully stable. Everyone should find teammates first and avoid rushing into anything."
"Furthermore, we cultivators of South Cloud Province should unite and refrain from internal strife, as the matter of this cave dwelling and secret realm cannot be concealed for long."
"If the cultivation sects from other states arrive, we will suffer a great loss if we do not unite."
Zhao Cheng spoke eloquently, his voice gentle, carrying an inexplicable charm.
It instantly gained the approval of most people.
This contrasts sharply with Li Xuan.
Li Xuan Taunt smile, but said nothing more.
From the moment Zhao Cheng appeared, he knew that he wouldn't need to worry about what happened next.
Although he and Zhao Cheng had never gotten along, he knew that Zhao Cheng was indeed more adept at scheming and plotting than he was.
He just needs to sit back and reap the benefits, like a fisherman enjoying the fruits of others' labor.
Another half hour passed before the Gate of the Secret Realm finally stabilized completely.
However, after that unfortunate soul's incident, no one dared to be the first to step forward.
What if the Gate of the Secret Realm isn't stable yet?
No one wants to turn into a bloody mist, leaving no trace of their body.
Neither Zhao Cheng nor Li Xuan said much at this point. Someone had to test the waters, but who would do it?
It's not appropriate to send anyone to test the waters; it would offend someone.
The two exchanged a glance, Zhao Cheng gestured for them to proceed, which immediately irritated Li Xuan.
Zhao Cheng's meaning was clear: he still wanted to play the bad guy.
Just then, two figures suddenly appeared in the Gate of the Secret Realm.
Everyone involuntarily turned to look at the two of them.
Zhao Cheng and Li Xuan frowned almost simultaneously.
They didn't recognize either of them and didn't know which sect they belonged to.
It doesn't matter which sect they belong to; what matters is that their cultivation level is undetectable.
What kind of person's cultivation level is impossible to discern?
They must either have a higher cultivation level than them, or they must have a powerful method of concealing their aura.
But regardless of the type, it's best to test the waters regarding such an uncontrollable existence.
At this moment, Zhao Cheng clasped his hands and asked, "I am Zhao Cheng from the Vast Righteousness Sect. Your cultivation levels are truly admirable!"
Ling Yi glanced at him and stepped directly into the Gate of the Secret Realm, while Lan Haoyue didn't even look at him.
After the two disappeared, Zhao Cheng became a little cold, but quickly returned to normal.
"Everyone, act according to your abilities!" He clasped his hands in a fist salute to the crowd, then flew directly into the Gate of the Secret Realm.
Li Xuan followed closely behind.
Behind them were the members of the Vast Righteousness Sect and the Heavenly Cloud Sect.
After everyone had entered the Gate of the Secret Realm, the others began to enter in small groups.
Soon, fewer and fewer people were Gate of the Secret Realm.
Once the last group of people entered the Gate of the Secret Realm, the light and shadow in the sky disappeared, and the Gate of the Secret Realm slowly began to close, eventually vanishing from sight.
A moment later, three figures emerged from the ground.
They were dressed in dark red armor and wore masks; they were all powerful cultivators at the Golden Core Stage.
"We wasted a few Secret Realm Talisman, but at least the plan succeeded," one of them Human Dao.
"But what if the princess of the Lan Family really does obtain an opportunity from the secret realm?"
"This secret realm opens only once every thousand years. Now that the only Secret Realm Talisman has been used up, what good is it even if they obtain the opportunity?"
"A thousand years later, the Cangnan Region has long since become a land of enslavement for the Sacred Sect."
"Accelerate the plan, refine enough Blood Spirit Pearl, and await the arrival of the Holy Son," the last person said.
The three nodded, then sank back into the ground and disappeared.
At this moment, Ling Yi and Lan Haoyue had already appeared in front of a giant Bronze gate.
It's unclear how much time has passed, but the Bronze was already covered in rust and vines.
However, Spiritual Power flowed through the center of the massive Bronze gate.
It still looks brand new.
Lan Haoyue glanced behind her and frowned, saying, " The Gate of the Secret Realm is gone, and no one else has come in!"
As she spoke, she looked at the massive Bronze gate and frowned, saying, " The Bronze gate bears the power of talismans; it is Third Pin talisman."
Talismans are also a common method used by cultivators.
Talismans are divided into Ninth Pin, with the lowest Ninth Pin and the highest being First Pin First Pin, there is the Immortal Pin.
"With our strength, we simply cannot open Third Pin talisman."
What she meant was that we shouldn't waste time here; we should use that Kung Fu Hustle to explore other opportunities.
Ling Yi looked at the massive Bronze gate and said, " The Gate of the Secret Realm is a random Teleport system. Those people were randomly Teleport to other locations within the secret realm."
Ling Yi's eyes flashed with blue light as he analyzed the massive Bronze gate before him, examining both its material and energy properties.
In just a few seconds, the blue light in Ling Yi's eyes disappeared.
"However, the Gate of the Secret Realm is indeed closed, and it will probably not reopen for another thousand years."
As Ling Yi spoke, he raised his finger and tapped the Bronze giant door.
In an instant, the massive Bronze gate trembled and slowly opened to both sides with a creaking sound.
"What? How do we leave then?" Lan Haoyue exclaimed.
How did you know that?
"I want to know, and I'll find out!" With that, Ling Yi stepped into the Bronze gate.
Lan Haoyue hesitated for a moment, but had no choice but to follow.
" Ling Yi, we can't linger here too long. We need to inform all the sects in Central Sacred Province about the Blood Baleful Energy Sect as soon as possible."
Don't worry, it won't take long.
After Lan Haoyue entered the Bronze gate, she was immediately shocked by the scene before her.
Before me stood a magnificent palace, with a white jade roof and gold and jade-inlaid pillars.
Nearly a hundred Aura cultivators stood solemnly on both sides, while a young man in white sat on the main seat inside the hall.
The young man in white was surrounded by divine light and colorful glow, his entire body radiating special effects.
Seeing this, Lan Haoyue became even more vigilant.
She knew that everything before her was Illusion, but she couldn't see through its Illusion.
The people on both sides were all at least at the Nascent Soul Stage.
Lan Haoyue couldn't even fathom the cultivation level of the white-robed youth sitting in the main seat.
"Welcome to the Heavenly Court, you two destined souls!" The white-robed youth raised his hand and said to Ling Yi and Lan Haoyue.
Ling Yi did not respond; at that moment, rows of data were rapidly scrolling past his eyes.
His eyes shimmered with a blue light.
"The Heavenly Court? What an arrogant tone, "Lan Haoyue frowned.
The words "Heavenly Court " are not something to be said or called out casually.
In the entire Immortal Cultivation Realm, the Heavenly Court is the sacred place that all cultivators ultimately yearn for.
It is the final destination after one has cultivated to the highest level.
This person claimed to be from the Heavenly Court, which greatly disgusted Lan Haoyue.
"Are these the only people in the Heavenly Court?" Lan Haoyue asked, pointing to the Human Dao on either side.
"This is Heavenly Court, yet it isn't Heavenly Court!" The young man in white stood up from his seat.
Lan Haoyue took a few steps back, her body surging with Bing Han Spiritual Power, and watched her opponent warily.
But Ling Yi remained motionless, seemingly doing nothing, and Lan Haoyue dared not make any rash moves.
She and Ling Yi had been away from the Moon Gazing Sect for half a month, and they had witnessed this situation several times already.
I roughly understand that Ling Yi has had an "epiphany"!
Or something like a sudden realization.
At this point, Ling Yi would pause for a moment, seemingly lost in a daze.
But the pause was short-lived.
Normally, it would end in a breath or two, but this time, Ling Yi's "enlightenment" clearly took a little longer.
"If you wish to know the truth, fellow Daoist, you only need to pass the test."
What kind of test?
"This Heavenly Court has a total of thirty-three levels. Each level you pass will grant you a corresponding reward!"
"A reminder to fellow Daoist: only by passing the tenth trial can you leave the Heavenly Court. Best of luck!"
As soon as the young man in white finished speaking, the surrounding environment underwent a dramatic change.
The once magnificent hall has been turned into a dilapidated ruin.
The young man in white has disappeared.
But the sixty Nascent Soul Stage cultivators and Nascent Soul Stage who stood motionless remained.
However, the magnificent armor on their bodies had become rusty, and inside the dilapidated armor were skeletons.
At this moment, a message entered Lan Haoyue's mind: Kill the Undead Heavenly Soldier to pass the first level!
Lan Haoyue frowned. Although she knew it was Illusion, it was pointless if she couldn't see through Illusion.
