Chapter 214 - Collapse Of The Secret Realm!

Making their way back to the throne room of the main palace, both General Liu and Zhang felt relieved when they saw the Imperial Teacher and Ancestor Bi Sheng standing in front of the open gate leading out of the secret realm.

"Hm? Did you manage to find anything in the storage room?" Asking in a both curious and excited voice, the Imperial Teacher had an exhausted look on his face as he made his way over to the two approaching generals.

Whoosh~

General Zhang did not hesitate in the slightest as he took the box of Soul Enhancing Flowers out of his interspatial ring and showed it to the approaching Imperial Teacher.

"Soul Enhancing Flowers!" not able to contain his excitement upon seeing the flowers inside of the box, the Imperial Teacher exclaimed excitedly as he went forward and took the box out of General Zhang's hand before inspecting the Soul Enhancing Flowers himself.

Making sure that he was extra careful, so that he did not accidently end up damaging the flowers.

"Did you say Soul Enhancing Flowers!?" Hurriedly walking over to the Imperial Teacher to see the flowers inside of the box, both General Liu and Zhang noticed the thin line of blood running down his lips as they did not understand how he had gotten injured.

Perhaps both of them had send the two of them away as they dealt with a dangerous demon beast or something along that line!

BOOM!

Just as both generals were feeling grateful towards their two elders, a large explosion occurred as some of the void energy gathered at the main pillar of the realm destruction formation broke free and crashed into a nearby wall of the palace. Instantly causing it to collapse.

"Let's get out of here first! We can go over the Soul Enhancing Flowers after leaving the secret realm first!" Putting away the box of Soul Enhancing Flowers before Ancestor Bi Sheng could catch a glimpse of them, the Imperial Teacher hurried all of them before making his way towards the gate out of the secret realm.

Swish~

The group did not really have anything to say when they heard what the Imperial Teacher said and followed him into the gate leading out of the secret realm.

The void energy that had gathered around the main pillar of the realm destruction formation at this point was way too terrifying and General Liu could not help but glance back one last time at it before leaving the secret realm behind.

Boom!

The moment everyone had made it through the gate, the void energy swirling around the giant pillar in the centre of the throne room seemed to have reached a critical point as the void energy grew even more unstable.

"We should leave this place before the void energy from inside spills out and ends up harming us in the process!" Glancing around at the cave with several kinds of ruins that they had found themselves in, Ancestor Bi Sheng hurried the group as they soon left behind the gate and looked for a path out of the cave.

Bang!

Just as a part of the void energy split off from the pillar and made its way towards the gate leading out of the secret realm, a small mist flew towards the gate at its highest possible speed as it barely made it through as the void energy hit him along with the gate and destroyed it.

"Hah… Hah… I-I made it…!" The mist slowly turned into a human shape, as the wandering cultivator looked back at the now destroyed gate behind him with an exhausted smile on his lips before suddenly spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Looking down on the blood that stained the ground beneath him, the wandering cultivator soon turned back into a mist and found a place to secretly recover.

Earlier on, he had forcefully endured the void energy as he passed through the gate leading out of the secret realm and damaged both his soul and body in the process!

Normally such an injury would be extremely hard to recover from, but with the Soul Enhancing Flower he would be able to recover in half a year and even be able to increase his strength even further!

…

"What is this place…?" Walking through the gate inside of the underground garden, Xuan Hao found himself in the middle of a wide underground cave in what he could only assume was outside of the secret realm. All the shaking sounds from earlier were also completely gone.

Ignoring the completion notification of the system, Xuan Hao looked around himself and saw a lot of ruins in his surroundings with the gate at the centre of what Xuan Hao assumed was also a part of the underground garden from the secret realm.

The difference between the two underground gardens was size and the ruins of buildings spread all over place. Most likely a place for those who took care of the underground garden in the past to stay.

Illuminated under the glowing crystal hanging high above in the cave ceiling, Xuan Hao had not seen anything like it back in the underground garden of the secret realm and hurriedly made his way through the thick foliage covering the cave floor towards one of the nearby ruins.

Hoping that he would be able to find out about where he currently was and find a way out.

After all, he still had to return back to the sect again!

At least he had informed them about Chi Hu…

He did inform them about him recruiting Chi Hu… Right…?

"Looks like I will have to hurry back quickly before Chi Hu ends up in a bad situation…" Smiling wryly as he thought about Chi Hu being blocked at the entrance of the Flying Sword Sect, Xuan Hao walked a little faster as he soon arrived in front of the ruin closest to the entrance of the secret realm that was connected to the underground garden.

Standing in front of the small cottage that seemed to have decayed to the point where only the stones foundation remained, Xuan Hao walked inside to see if he could find anything.

…

At the same time Xuan Hao entered the underground garden, under a crystal tree located deeper inside the underground garden, a pair of red eyes suddenly sprung open as a large creature looked in the direction of the gate leading into the secret realm for a short moment before disappearing.
