Before the words had even faded, Ji Zining transformed into a streak of light and rushed towards the golden portal in the sky.
Seeing this, Xiao Jing and the other geniuses from the Ziwei Holy Land also channeled their spiritual power and followed behind Ji Zining.
A powerful pressure emanated from the many geniuses of the Ziwei Holy Land, causing the surrounding geniuses to hurriedly take cover and let Ji Zining and the others go first.
A moment later, all the prodigies disappeared into the golden portal.
In the sky, only the golden portal continued to shine with golden light, and the dark golden runes that had been flashing rapidly returned to their previous frequency.
Inside a valley.
Ji Zining's figure emerged from a black spatial vortex.
As soon as she regained her footing, Ji Zining sensed behind her and found Xiao Jing and the others were there, and breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Fortunately, this Martial Emperor Secret Realm did not randomly teleport the geniuses who entered to different locations.
The number of people who come in determines the number of people who gather together.
This Martial Emperor Secret Realm is quite rich in Spiritual Qi, comparable to Qingming City.
As expected of a secret realm with the inheritance of a powerful Great Emperor, it is truly extraordinary.
Within the golden portal, a continuous stream of prodigies flew out.
These prodigies had just arrived when they saw the prodigies of the Ziwei Holy Land gathered together, and they all showed wariness.
After retreating a short distance as a group, they each chose a direction and left.
Many more prodigies emerged from the black spatial vortex.
At this moment, Xiao Jing approached Ji Zining Ji Zining handed her an old-fashioned map.
" Your Divine Son Hall, this is a map of the Martial Emperor Secret Realm."
Ji Zining nodded and reached out to take the ancient map.
Upon closer inspection, Ji Zining spotted a shimmering dot on the map.
The location of this point of light is called Qi Gazing Valley.
This made Ji Zining realize something.
This map will locate itself on the map based on its position; wherever it appears, the glowing dot above it will move to that location.
Is this valley called the Qi Gazing Valley?
Besides the light spots, Ji Zining also saw some red and blue markings, but she didn't know what they meant.
Xiao Jing noticed Ji Zining's doubt and quickly added.
" Your Divine Son Hall, the areas marked in blue on this map are places of opportunity, while the areas marked in red are places of danger."
"Those places without any color are those that don't involve any special opportunities and aren't particularly dangerous."
"If you want to find opportunities, just go to the place of opportunity."
"Of course, there are also opportunities in dangerous places, but they are full of dangers. Even Saint King Realm genius might not return if they go there."
Upon hearing Xiao Jing's words, Ji Zining nodded in understanding.
He raised his head and looked at the disciples of the Ziwei Holy Land behind him.
"Let's assign teams according to the old rules. We'll regroup here in three days."
Upon hearing this, many disciples of the Ziwei Holy Land respectfully cupped their hands in greeting.
"Yes, Your Divine Son Hall!"
After speaking, they began to choose their respective teams according to the assignments made outside.
There were a total of 323 geniuses from the Ziwei Holy Land who entered the Martial Emperor Secret Realm, led by 26 geniuses from the Heavenly Pride Ranking.
The Heavenly Pride Ranking list who entered the Martial Emperor Secret Realm was not limited to these twenty-six.
However, because some of the top talents were not ranked very high, two of the Heavenly Pride Ranking were chosen to lead one team together.
Seeing this, Ji Zining took a deep breath and waved her hand.
Let's go.
After bowing respectfully to Ji Zining, the numerous disciples of the Ziwei Holy Land each chose a direction to depart according to their assigned groups.
They need to seek opportunities in different places; going together would only reduce their chances of finding them.
Lin Shan, Qingshuang, Qing Tan, and Xiao Jing did not choose to lead the team, but instead stood silently behind Ji Zining.
Turning around, Ji Zining looked somewhat helpless.
"Really, I don't need anyone to follow me. My strength is sufficient to protect myself in the Martial Emperor Secret Realm."
"Even if I encounter Heavenly Pride Ranking genius on the Prodigy Ranking that I can't defeat, I can still escape."
With her current mastery of the Divine Rank Upper Grade, the Exquisite Flying Immortal Steps, as long as she doesn't encounter any of the top ten on the Heavenly Pride Ranking...
Ji Zining was confident that she could easily shake off the pursuit of those prodigies.
Xiao Jing and the others exchanged glances and then shook their heads.
Xiao Jing, in particular, looked extremely solemn.
" Your Divine Son Hall, the Ancestor has repeatedly instructed you that you must not make any mistakes."
"Your talent is unparalleled. I'm not exaggerating when I say that if you can grow into a fully-fledged genius, it would be worth it even if all the geniuses of my Ziwei Holy Land on the Heavenly Pride Battlefield were to perish!"
Lin Shan and the others nodded earnestly.
Having only been in the Heavenly Pride Battlefield for less than two days, he has already ranked 315th on the Heavenly Pride Ranking.
Such talent is beyond their reach; such a prodigy is what their Ziwei Holy Land needs, and what the True Martial Dao Domain needs as well!
The True Martial Dao Domain has not seen Great Emperor- level expert for too long, and now it urgently needs a true prodigy to break this shackle!
Once the shackles are broken, newcomers will have the opportunity to reach even higher levels!
Upon hearing this, Ji Zining sighed.
"Alright, you can come along then. I'm not familiar with the Martial Emperor Secret Realm, so you can lead the way to whichever place of opportunity we're going next."
"But don't bring up the topic of life and death again. I will grow stronger, and you won't die either!"
"These words were spoken by me Ji Zining!"
Xiao Jing and the others exchanged glances and nodded with smiles.
" Your Divine Son Hall, we understand."
Lin Shan took out a map and pointed to a place called Extreme Thunder Valley.
" Your Divine Son Hall, it seems you are also focusing on physical cultivation. This Extreme Thunder Valley is quite good; it can not only temper the physical body, but..."
"There's also a Lightning Spirit Beast inside. Killing it will yield Lightning Crystal, which, after being refined, can greatly enhance your physical cultivation."
Upon hearing this, Ji Zining lowered her head slightly and looked at the map in her hand.
Three places away from Qi Gazing Valley, Ji Zining spotted the existence of Extreme Thunder Valley.
The three characters "Extreme Thunder Valley) were covered by a blue marker, indicating that it was a place of serendipitous encounter.
" Lightning Spirit Beast? Lightning Crystal? Okay, I'll do as you say. Let's go to Extreme Thunder Valley first!"
The name "Extreme Thunder Valley" sounded appealing, successfully piquing Ji Zining's curiosity.
Lin Shan's face lit up with joy.
"Yes, Your Divine Son Hall!"
Xiao Jing and Qingshuang shook their heads speechlessly.
"You bastard, you're using His Divine Son Hall's name to benefit yourself, aren't you?"
Lin Shan possesses the Mountain Divine Physique, an extraordinary physique surpassing nine-star talent, specializing in physical combat and unparalleled in close combat.
Extreme Thunder Valley, that's probably the place this guy most wants to go.
Lin Shan glared at him, somewhat displeased.
"What do you mean I'm acting in my own self-interest? His Divine Son Hall's physical cultivation has already Saint Manifestation Realm Fifth Layer. I'm doing this for His Divine Son Hall's benefit!"
Xiao Jing and Qingshuang were stunned upon hearing this.
That seems to make sense.
Qing Tan lowered her head and chuckled silently.
As Qingshuang's niece, she naturally had to accompany her aunt.
However, she was also well aware that she couldn't be too flamboyant in front of the three holy sons and His Divine Son Hall.
Ji Zining smiled and waved her hand.
"This Extreme Thunder Valley is indeed a good place; it just so happens that I also want to improve my physical cultivation."
" Lin Shan, lead the way, let's head to Extreme Thunder Valley!"
Lin Shan glanced smugly at Xiao Jing and the other two, then smiled and bowed respectfully.
"Yes, Your Divine Son Hall!"
After determining the direction, he led Ji Zining and the others towards the Extreme Thunder Valley.
