"Whoosh!"
The figure entered the secret realm.
A rich, ethereal aura came into view.
The Spiritual Power that had just Tribulation Transcendence was enhanced by the immortal energy.
Ji Shanhai's cultivation had only reached the Tribulation Transcendence Early Stage, and he suddenly advanced another level.
" Tribulation Transcendence Middle Stage!"
"It'll be soon. After the Tribulation Transcendence, I just need to hone my cultivation. With my talent and comprehension, breaking through to the Mahayana is only a matter of time."
"Once you reach the Mahayana Perfection, you will no longer need to go to the Middle Thousand Realms."
"If I stay in this secret realm for a long time, I will eventually become the first mortal immortal of the Ji Household."
"The path of the immortals... begins with me!"
Feel the abundant ethereal energy in the air.
A hint of ecstasy crept onto Ji Shanhai's otherwise impassive face.
While frantically absorbing the surrounding immortal energy, a series of fluctuations suddenly emanated from the depths of the secret realm.
The moment he sensed the fluctuation, Ji Shanhai's eyes snapped open.
A look of disbelief appeared in his eyes.
"Um?!"
"Someone's there!"
Upon determining the direction of the fluctuation, a fleeting look of surprise crossed Ji Shanhai's face.
When he arrived at the depths of the secret realm, he found it deserted.
Only a sliver of white light had just dissipated.
Someone else has come in!
Watching that fleeting glimmer of white light disappear.
Ji Shanhai's face turned ashen.
To him, this secret realm was like his own private cave abode.
But at that moment, someone else found a way to enter and exit freely.
This is something he would never allow under any circumstances.
The entire Ji Household would not allow it.
With this in mind, Ji Shanhai walked to a palace deep within the secret realm.
The palace was empty except for nine gates of light that floated in mid-air.
Looking at the portal in the center, he stepped out of the secret realm.
We arrived in a vast starry sky.
After flying through the starry sky for months, a prosperous continent came into view.
Ji Shanhai concealed his presence and flew all the way down to the mainland.
This continent is several times larger than the Awakening of Insects Continent.
The area above was a place where ordinary people and cultivators lived together, and it was extremely prosperous.
Ji Shanhai did not stop moving.
They went straight to the outside of a huge palace.
Four large characters were written on the attic.
" Four Seasons Immortal Pavilion!"
The moment he saw those four words, Ji Shanhai's aura flickered slightly.
It seemed to have disturbed something in the attic.
" Shanhai? What brings you here?"
"Father."
Hearing the call, Ji Shanhai went to the top of the pavilion.
Sitting inside was Ji Cangtian, the patriarch of the Ji Household.
"Father, something terrible has happened! Someone has entered the ancestral shrine's secret realm!"
"Has anyone been here?"
Upon hearing Ji Shanhai explain his purpose, Ji Cangtian abruptly stood up.
His square face was filled with gloom.
He wondered how his precious son could have suddenly arrived in the Central Star Domain.
It turns out this time it really concerns the very foundation of the Ji Household.
"No!"
"The ancestral hall and its hidden location are the foundation of our Ji Household; we must not be careless in the slightest."
"I'll find out when I get back."
Ji Cangtian didn't even hesitate.
Last time, when Ji Cangsheng and the others asked him to eliminate the Bone Mountain, he remained unmoved.
Upon hearing of the change in the secret realm, they did not wait even a second longer.
They immediately followed Ji Shanhai to the starry sky and then found the Pseudo-Immortal Grade teleportation array hidden in the starry sky.
We returned to the secret realm.
Entering the secret realm.
Abundant celestial energy wafted about.
Even a serious person like Ji Cangtian couldn't help but sigh with relief.
" Shanhai, this place is the very foundation of my Ji Household's immortal clan; it must not suffer the slightest loss."
"I will deduce the cause and effect here. Go to the Ten Thousand Demons Star Domain and summon your second uncle, third uncle, and others."
"Tell them to return immediately and guard the area carefully."
"Yes!"
Upon hearing the order, Ji Shanhai did not hesitate at all.
He turned around and stepped directly into another portal of light within the secret realm.
Ji Cangtian was left standing alone in the secret realm.
Looking at this secret realm that resembles Immortal Realm.
Ji Cangtian's face was full of affection.
The Ji Household has sacrificed far too much for this Immortal Palace Secret Realm.
They were about to leave behind a world of immortals.
He would never allow anyone to interfere.
This thought came to mind.
Ji Cangtian sat down cross-legged.
With hands forming a mudra, spiritual light surged forth.
Ripples of cause and effect spread across his fingertips, spreading throughout the entire secret realm.
It even spread directly, affecting the Awakening of Insects Continent.
"Buzz!"
A strange sound emanated from his body.
A thin crack appeared between his brows, revealing a third eye with a grayish-white pupil.
It reflected countless afterimages and illusory images.
The threads of cause and effect intertwined and tangled before his eyes, attempting to trace back the intruder's trail.
But when he reached the end of that mark, it was as if he had touched something indescribable.
His gray-white pupils suddenly contracted, and the causal ripples abruptly broke.
Ji Cangtian groaned, a trickle of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.
His gaze was as cold and hard as iron.
"They even offer protection!"
"The karmic backlash is so great, what's its origin?"
Ji Cangtian's eyes flickered, a hint of apprehension arising within them.
Such a strong karmic backlash indicates that the newcomer's cultivation of karma is no weaker than his.
This means that the two are on the same level.
Supreme?
Has a new Supreme emerged in the Jichen Star Domain?
We can also find the biggest secret of the Ji Household.
How could that be?
Could he not be an outsider?
Before Ji Cangtian could figure it out, he suddenly realized something.
"Etc!"
"It seems that the thread of cause and effect was severed just now within the Lineage continent."
"That means... this person is among our clan!"
"My second brother, third brother, and fourth brother are all in the Ten Thousand Demons Star Domain, so this person cannot possibly be the Supreme of my Ji Household."
"I'd like to see who you really are!"
They noticed something amiss.
Ji Cangtian could no longer suppress the murderous intent in his heart.
He could never let someone else get away with discovering his biggest secret.
Even if a celestial being descended to earth today, he wouldn't be able to leave the Ji Household alive!
With this thought in mind, Ji Cangtian's figure flashed out of the secret realm.
It floats above the Awakening of Insects Continent.
As he flew, he mobilized his Supreme Divine Sense to sweep across the entire Awakening of Insects Continent.
Many members of the Ji Household and their retainers were terrified by this sudden oppressive aura.
Sensing that Supreme aura, no one dared to make the slightest move.
They were afraid of being noticed.
Even the secrets of the Ji Household's prodigies were all exposed at this moment.
Just as they were filled with fear, they realized that the Divine Sense swept over them without lingering for a moment.
The Awakening of Insects Continent is vast, several times larger than the Eastern Desolation Star.
Even with the Supreme Divine Sense being powerful, it is impossible to scan the entire continent in an instant.
Ji Cangtian could only carefully scan each area inch by inch from the inside out.
Ye Chenfeng and Suanni's cave abode are located on the outskirts of the Ji Household.
With Ji Cangtian's Divine Sense, he could scan the area in three days at most.
Logically speaking, running away as soon as possible would be his wisest choice right now.
But at this moment, he remained motionless, sitting upright cross-legged inside the cave abode.
Suanni and Elder Jian watched him with horrified expressions.
" Old Ye! Old Ye!"
"What's wrong with you! Say something!"
"We seem to have alerted the Ji Household in some way. Let's run!"
"Get moving!"
The terrified voice of the Suanni reached Ye Chenfeng's ears.
The other party remained completely still, their eyes tightly closed.
Seeing this, Elder Jian retreated back into Ye Chenfeng's body.
He wanted to use his own Divine Soul power to forcefully enter Ye Chenfeng's Sea of Consciousness in an attempt to awaken him.
His Divine Soul collided with Ye Chenfeng's Sea of Consciousness.
A shocking scene suddenly came into view.
This left Elder Jian completely stunned on the spot.
What came into view was the phantom image of a celestial being.
"What... what is this? Ye Chenfeng?!"
