Hearing Chen Yu's words, Ning Chuan nodded to himself, realizing that he had underestimated the value of that secret realm.
It seems he needs to put in more effort to take control of it.
Chen Yu continued, "What lies behind the bronze gate is still unclear."
It's so sturdy!
I attacked with all my might, but I couldn't leave a single mark.
"However, the door may now be open."
Chen Yu guessed.
He pointed out that the three leaders of the First Alliance had all entered that secret realm, joining forces to create an overwhelming force that the bronze gate might not be able to withstand.
"Three of the Federation's Ten Great Divine General..."
Ning Chuan murmured softly, a glint of light flashing in his dark eyes, lost in thought.
During their conversation, the three of them sped along and arrived near Heavenly Cloud Mountain.
The mountain is enormous, tens of thousands of meters high, soaring into the sky and piercing the clouds.
A few white clouds drifted around the mountainside.
Because of the conflict between the Supreme Hall and the First Alliance, many reporters came to the mountain, setting up various filming equipment and keeping watch day and night, aiming at the snow-covered mountaintop area.
There, a conspicuous warning tape was set up, and approaching was strictly prohibited.
The people of the First Alliance are stationed here.
Ning Chuan glanced around but didn't see the spatial portal. He asked in surprise, "Where's the entrance to the secret realm?"
"Lord, the entrance is at the mountaintop."
Chen Yu cautioned, "But it's not a spatial gate, but a much more ancient teleportation array."
Upon hearing this, Ning Chuan was immediately surprised and said, "The origins of the Heavenly Cloud Mountain Secret Realm are so ancient?!"
He had read about teleportation arrays in a book.
A space teleportation technology.
Very old.
It had already been completely lost by the time of Ye Qingwu's mythological era, and was replaced by the Gate of Space.
In other words...
The hidden realm in Heavenly Cloud Mountain dates back to before the mythological era.
" Heavenly Derivation Art!"
Ning Chuan had a sudden thought, and his Divine Sense spread out, covering the mountaintop area.
The next moment, several stone discs caught Ning Chuan's attention. They were embedded in the mountain and had a diameter of over ten feet. Their surfaces were engraved with dense and peculiar patterns, and a very faint spatial fluctuation emanated from them.
Even without Divine Sense, it might be impossible to perceive it.
Ning Chuan looked at Chen Yu and said, "The stone disc should be the teleportation array, right?"
"Yes, Your Highness."
Chen Yu nodded.
As he spoke, his gaze fell on the stone slab, and he explained, "As long as you stand on it and channel your Force, you can successfully activate the teleportation array and enter the secret realm."
"However, the location where you are teleported into the secret realm is random and changes every time."
Chen Yu pondered for a moment and said, "As for the reason, it might be that the teleportation array has been in disrepair for many years and cannot function fully, or it could simply be a characteristic of the teleportation array itself."
Ning Chuan thought for a moment and asked, "Then how do we leave the secret realm? Are there teleportation arrays inside?"
"That's not necessary."
Chen Yu shook his head. He had been inside the secret realm once before and explained, "When the teleportation array is activated, it inputs a spatial energy into the body. As long as you stimulate that energy with your Force to fully activate it, you can return from the secret realm."
"There are no location restrictions, which is more convenient than a spatial portal."
Ning Chuan said with a smile.
At this moment, Lu Zhan finished his contemplation, looked at Ning Chuan, and said, "After we go inside, unleash your full power, then I'll come find you. We'll regroup and then proceed."
He was worried that Ning Chuan was in danger.
This method probably won't work.
Before Ning Chuan could answer, Chen Yu explained, "The aura within the secret realm is immense, severely suppressing the aura emitted by an individual, preventing it from spreading very far."
"Moreover, the secret realm is quite large, spanning over a thousand kilometers in circumference."
Chen Yu said.
After listening, Lu Zhan frowned slightly.
Ning Chuan glanced at him and smiled reassuringly, " Uncle Lu, don't worry. If there's real danger, I won't force myself; I'll just teleport away."
After saying that, Ning Chuan pondered for a moment and said, "After you enter the secret realm, don't look for me. Go to the Ancient Bronze Tree in the central area. I'll find Guo Renyu and then come to meet you."
" Chen Yu, you too, go straight to the Ancient Bronze Tree."
Ning Chuan added one more point.
He didn't ask the two of them to help him search.
No need.
His Divine Sense was powerful, capable of sweeping across large areas in an instant, making his search extremely efficient.
Even if Lu Zhan and Chen Yu joined in, it wouldn't improve things much; in fact, it would only delay things when they finally reunited.
"OK!"
After some Lu Zhan agreed.
"Understood, Your Highness!"
Before long, the three arrived at the top of Heavenly Cloud Mountain and landed.
The people stationed by the First Alliance quickly surrounded them, armed with knives and swords, including many Knight and Divine General.
However, after recognizing Ning Chuan, they stopped blocking him, made way for him to pass through Shipan, and let him through.
Just a few minutes ago, Guo Yunze entered the secret realm and explained this matter.
Ning Chuan didn't delay. He stood on a stone slab, channeled his Force, and entered the teleportation array.
The same applies to Lu Zhan and Chen Yu.
After a moment, the patterns on the stone disc emitted light, growing brighter and brighter, and were filled with intense spatial fluctuations.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
The three figures vanished.
After a brief feeling of weightlessness, Ning Chuan entered the secret realm.
He looked up.
The world before my eyes was a landscape painted with blood.
The crimson Firmament stretched out in all directions, exceeding Ning Chuan's line of sight.
The land below was desolate and covered with all sorts of weapons, giving the feeling of being in an endless jungle of weapons.
A chilling atmosphere permeated the air, silent yet intense, exuding a sense of oppression.
In particular, when the sharp blades of various weapons reflect light, the crimson light shines across the sky and earth, as if it has come alive, captivating the soul.
"It truly looks extraordinary!"
Ning Chuan shook his head and sighed.
At the same time, he clearly sensed the power of the heavens and earth.
As Chen Yu said, it was vast and magnificent, as if he were being looked down upon by a god, which filled him with awe.
That's the most instinctive reaction of a living being.
"Um?!"
Suddenly, Ning Chuan's eyes narrowed as he noticed that the Force within his body was boiling violently, resonating with the energy of heaven and earth, and was exceptionally active.
Chen Yu had not mentioned this situation.
Clearly, the resonance between the Force and his aura was an isolated case that occurred to him.
"Is there some connection between the Ultimate Weapon Art and this place?"
Ning Chuan thought to himself subconsciously.
Although the Ultimate Weapon Art was acquired by the Federation military and regarded as a core skill, it was not the first time it had been discovered.
There are related records from many different eras.
It has been passed down for countless years!
It is impossible to know exactly which force it came from or who created it.
"Could it be that the Ultimate Weapon Art originated from this secret realm?"
Ning Chuan's eyes flickered, and he fell into deep thought.
"Or perhaps, the power behind this secret realm once possessed the Ultimate Weapon Art?"
Or is it just a coincidence?
Many thoughts arose.
"Forget it, I'm not going to think about it anymore. There's too little information; no matter how hard I try, I won't come to a conclusion!"
Ning Chuan shook his head, gathering his thoughts.
He opened his hand, channeling a wisp of Force that flowed through his palm, dazzling and radiant, like lava on the surface of the sun.
After observing for a moment, Ning Chuan revealed a faint smile.
The Force resonates with the energy of heaven and earth, and in this active state, the strength of the Force is significantly enhanced.
"However, it's not all good. With increased combat power, it's harder to find suitable opponents! Guo Yunze, ranked eleventh on the Federation Divine General Rankings, might not even pose a life-or-death threat to me in a one-on-one fight."
An idea vanishes in an instant.
Ning Chuan quickly took off, randomly choosing a direction to fly out in search of Guo Renyu's whereabouts.
