A Great Age Is About to Begin, a Calamity for Fair Maidens (Part Two)

"What?!"

This time, it was the elders from the Upper Realm who were completely stunned!

In the sect leader's heart, the flame of hope was rekindled once more!

However, after a brief moment of shock, a deep struggle flashed in the eyes of the elder from the Upper Realm.

[It's not too late to get Su Wurao back.]

[After all, a mere Foundation Establishment is indeed of little use to a ' Dragon Son '.]

[But...]

[To offend a future ' Dragon Son ' for the sake of a mere ant in the Lower Realm...]

Is it worth it?

She shook her head.

[not to mention...]

[That so-called 'prodigy,' no matter how powerful, could never be a match for me, a mere Soul Formation Perfection cultivator!]

"Elder..."

The sect leader looked at the woman in front of him, who was lost in thought, and thought he should try again.

However, the elders of the Upper Realm had already made a decision.

She slowly raised her head, and a strange light flashed in her cold phoenix eyes.

How can I contact that man?

"Huh?" Upon hearing this, the sect leader was taken aback at first, but then secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

[It seems... she still has some reservations.]

[Are you preparing to give up?]

However, the next moment, the words of the elder from the Upper Realm, filled with endless greed, plunged her completely into an endless abyss!

"His ability to help others and build Earth-Grade Dao Foundation shows his extraordinary talent..."

"Hehe... truly, an excellent... 'furnace'!"

"What?!"

The sect leader was completely stunned!

She stared incredulously at the woman before her, who seemed to have gone mad!

[She... she actually wanted to...]

"What?" A cold glint flashed in the eyes of the elder from the Upper Realm. "You have a problem with that?"

"No... I wouldn't dare!"

"Give it to me!"

Faced with overwhelming power and the threat of death, the sect leader ultimately yielded.

Trembling, she took out a "Love Thread Knot" that should have belonged to Su Wurao.

"Very good."

The elder from the Upper Realm snatched the token, his face revealing a morbid, manic joy!

She closed her eyes, channeling her vast Divine Sense into them, attempting to sense the man's location!

However...

A moment later.

She suddenly opened her eyes!

His eyes were filled with incomprehension... confusion!

[Can't sense... anything?!]

[How is that possible?!]

The sect leader was startled when he saw her bewildered and uncertain expression.

But then, an uncontrollable surge of joy welled up inside him!

[Very good!]

[If I can't sense it, that's good!]

"What's going on?!" The elder from the Upper Realm's eyes blazed with fury, and he grabbed the sect leader by the neck. "You dare to play me?!"

"No... no!" the sect leader explained with difficulty, "This... this ' Love Thread Knot ' can only resonate with each other within the same world!"

"He... he is now, most likely, gone..."

"... Astral Battlefield!"

"The Astral Battlefield?" Upon hearing this, the elder from the Upper Realm slowly released his grip.

"Indeed, that's possible."

She looked at the sect leader and said coldly, "You better not be lying to me."

Once he returns from the Astral Battlefield, she intends to use him as a furnace!

Just then!

"BOOM--!!!!"

An indescribable, boundless aura, seemingly originating from the primordial era, erupted without warning from the deepest part of the Immortal-Abandoned Continent!

In an instant!

The winds and clouds changed color! Heaven and earth resounded!

The entire Immortal-Abandoned Continent trembled violently!

"This... this is..."

The elder from the Upper Realm sensed the surrounding spiritual energy concentration, which was increasing at an unbelievable speed, and his face revealed an unprecedented... ecstasy!

"Spiritual energy revival?!"

"Hahaha! Great! That's fantastic!"

"This time, I certainly didn't come in vain!"

Meanwhile, the sect leader, watching her seemingly insane state, felt an overwhelming sense of sorrow.

These are turbulent times...

She remembered that man.

[Could it be...?]

Did he really go to the Astral Battlefield?

A thought, which she herself found utterly absurd, uncontrollably surfaced from the depths of her heart!

[Perhaps, he has already reached the Golden Core stage?!]

[So, it seems there might still be a tiny, sliver of... hope?]

She let out a long sigh.

"Buzz--!"

When the light from the teleportation array completely faded away...

Su Wurao slowly opened her eyes.

However, what came into view was not the sanctuary of a sect filled with decadent music that she had imagined.

Instead, it was a magnificent, luxurious prison, yet filled with endless majesty and... a chilling aura!

A palace floating in an endless sea of clouds... in the sky!

Around the palace stood rows of terrifying guards, clad in golden armor, their auras profound and imposing!

"Where... am I?!"

Su Wurao's heart sank to the bottom in an instant!

She could clearly sense that this was definitely not the Pleasure Sect!

Just then, a middle-aged woman dressed in a manager's uniform, with a face as cold and stern as if carved by a knife, slowly walked over.

She merely glanced at Su Wurao casually, her gaze as if she were looking at an inanimate object.

"Come with me."

A moment later.

Su Wurao was taken to a courtyard that was equally luxurious.

Inside the courtyard, more than a dozen stunningly beautiful young women, dressed in various colors and possessing breathtaking beauty, had already gathered!

Each of them exudes the same aura as Su Wurao —the aura of "Earth-Grade Dao Foundation"!

Welcome to ' Hidden Dragon Garden '.

The woman in charge spoke in a voice that was icy cold and devoid of any emotion.

"From this day forward, you will be the candidates for the ' Dragon Son's' furnace."

"Wh... what?!"

Upon hearing this!

All the girls present were utterly horrified!

They are all exceptional women, handpicked from various powerful forces in the "Upper Realm"!

They thought they were there to receive the best training!

But unexpectedly...

What awaited them was such a humiliating fate?!

However, among the crowd, a few girls, after a brief moment of shock, revealed a morbid ecstasy on their faces!

"Oh my god! I... I actually... I was chosen!"

"To become the furnace for Dragon Son '! This... this is an immense honor!"

"That's right! As long as we can gain the favor of Lord ' Dragon Son ', we can rise to the top in one step!"

Listen to the excited and hopeful discussions around me.

Su Wurao's heart sank to the bottom.

She finally understood.

I was sold out.

The sect treated it as a commodity that could be traded!

And all of them have only one "mission" --

That is, to cultivate diligently and break through to the Golden Core realm as soon as possible!

Then...

At the time when Lord "Dragon Son" was attempting to break through to the legendary "Dao-Grade Nascent Soul" level.

To become the most perfect stepping stone beneath his feet!

[what to do?]

Su Wurao's heart was filled with endless... despair.

Looking at the terrifying guards around her, each with an aura that had reached the Nascent Soul stage, she felt no thought of resistance whatsoever.

[escape?]

Where can we escape to?

Just as she was about to fall into utter despair.

But involuntarily, the image of that calm yet domineering figure in green robes appeared in her mind.

[My husband...]

She knew that this was just an unrealistic fantasy.

This is the Ten Thousand Dragons' Nest!

It is an unparalleled power!

The guards here are at least at the Nascent Soul!

And he...

How could he possibly win?

She slowly closed her eyes, and two lines of clear tears silently slid down her cheeks.
