#741 - Sealer

The arrival of the Dragon Maiden from the Sea of ​​Life Forbidden Zone, the Dragon's Nest, caused a brief commotion, but it quickly quieted down.

The atmosphere here was a bit oppressive, especially for forces below the Supreme Dominator. The strong cultivators from those sects all sighed inwardly.

They looked at the young prodigies beside them, their hearts filled with worry.

The emergence of the Golden Scale Secret Realm completely subverted their expectations.

They originally thought that the only competitive threat would be the contemporary prodigies of the Four Supreme Dominators, but they didn't expect that people from the Golden Ancient Mine and the Dragon's Nest, two major life forbidden zones, would also come.

The Supreme Dominator, Tianjing Sect, didn't send the contemporary young Supreme, but someone with the Middle Heavenly Rank realm!

They naturally wouldn't let their sect's prodigies compete with the Supreme Dominator's people for the opportunities in the Golden Scale Secret Realm. However, the stronger the young Supremes of the Supreme Dominators, the faster they would acquire opportunities. As one side diminishes, the other grows. Their people inside might only be able to pick up scraps, so the hope becomes even more渺茫.

"Grand Elder, how much do you know about the Golden Scale Secret Realm?"

Jun Wuxie glanced around the entire area. So far, it seemed that all forces above the Quasi-Dominator level had arrived.

The Supreme Dominator forces didn't have many people. The younger generation only had two or three people, while the younger generation of other forces had about ten to twenty people each.

"The Golden Scale Secret Realm only appears once every era. Although our Myriad Worlds Ancient Academy's predecessors left information about the Golden Scale Secret Realm, most of this information is of little reference value to the present world."

Jun Wuxie was taken aback: "Why is that?"

"Because the situation inside the Golden Scale Secret Realm is different each time it appears, and the Holy Source appears in different forms. However, one thing is certain: everyone who enters the Golden Scale Secret Realm in each era needs to pass a test to obtain the Holy Source inside. Before it opens, the order inside will set the method of testing, but what the method will be this time is unknown."

"Grand Elder, do you mean that the order in the Golden Scale Secret Realm has self-awareness?"

"It's hard to say, perhaps it's consciousness, perhaps it's the will given by the existence that constructed the Golden Scale Secret Realm. Anyway, after entering the Golden Scale Secret Realm, everyone can only follow the method set by the manager of the secret realm's order, pass its test, and obtain the Holy Source."

The Grand Elder said here, patted Jun Wuxie's shoulder, and said: "Come on, try to obtain more Holy Source, and take this opportunity to break through to the Middle Heavenly Rank realm. At that time, the Heavenly Rank competition is estimated to be at the time node. We got the news that some young Supremes of the Tong Sheng Ancient Mansion have now stepped into the Middle Heavenly Rank realm! In the Heavenly Rank competition, we must win, so that we will not only have more quota numbers, but also have the priority to enter the Heavenly Rank Secret Realm."

"The Extreme Heavenly Rank is a hurdle. With your talent and comprehension, breaking through the Extreme Heavenly Rank is naturally not a problem, but I am afraid it will take a lot of time, and what we lack most in this world is time. Therefore, having the priority to enter the Heavenly Rank Secret Realm, we will have a greater chance to obtain the Extreme Heavenly Rank Dao Fruit! Fusing the Extreme Heavenly Rank Dao Fruit can break through the Extreme Heavenly Rank shackles in a short time. If the fusionist is already at the peak of the Great Heavenly Rank, they can achieve the Extreme Heavenly Rank realm within a few days!"

"I know you have Hundredfold Fruit, but if you use Hundredfold Fruit to impact the Extreme Heavenly Rank in the future, the required quantity will be a lot, and it will be a waste. It is best to keep the Hundredfold Fruit for use when you impact the Saint Realm in the Upper Realm."

Jun Wuxie couldn't help frowning when he heard this, and said: "Below the Extreme Heavenly Rank, it seems that only one Hundredfold Fruit is needed for the breakthrough of each Great Realm. Grand Elder, are you sure that a lot of Hundredfold Fruit is needed when impacting the Extreme Heavenly Rank?"

"The old man is very sure. Didn't you give us Hundredfold Fruit? We have repeatedly studied it. The energy level of Hundredfold Fruit is very high, but the Extreme Heavenly Rank realm is very special. The entire Half-Saint Domain is itself very unique. It is a path forcibly opened above the extreme peak of the Saint Sect realm. The Extreme Heavenly Rank is the biggest shackle in the Half-Saint Domain. It is even more unique and special than cultivating the extreme realm."

"This makes the effect of the Hundredfold Fruit greatly reduced, so it is a waste to use the Hundredfold Fruit on this. In the future, you will not have such a situation when you impact the Saint Realm, because the Saint Realm itself is a conventional realm that originally exists in the system."

"I see..." Jun Wuxie nodded and said: "Grand Elder, don't worry, in the Heavenly Rank competition, our Emperor Beginning Star will definitely not lose to the Tong Sheng Ancient Mansion again. We are bound to win the Extreme Heavenly Rank Dao Fruit in the Heavenly Rank Secret Realm!"

"Yes." The Grand Elder nodded and said: "At that time, try to seize as many Extreme Heavenly Rank Dao Fruits as possible, so that several Extreme Heavenly Rank powerhouses will emerge from our Emperor Beginning Star's contemporary young Supremes."

"I will try my best."

Jun Wuxie understood this, and there was no reason not to seize more Extreme Heavenly Rank Dao Fruits.

His women and friends needed it, and his two junior brothers also needed it.

If he could get Extreme Heavenly Rank Dao Fruits for all of them, then they would all be able to step into the Extreme Heavenly Rank realm when the Flood of the End of the World came, and they would have stronger self-protection power.

He couldn't help but think of Kong Xu and Xu Daoling, who were still wandering in the starry sky. He didn't know when those two guys would return to Emperor Beginning Star.

He didn't have their starry sky communication rune number, so he couldn't contact them, and he didn't dare to publish messages on the starry sky rune communicator platform to attract their attention, so that they would actively contact him.

In that case, their identities would be exposed. If people knew that they came from the Immortal Execution Sword Sect, it was estimated that their wandering would come to an end, and they would inevitably be hunted down by those forces that targeted the Immortal Execution Sword Sect and had suffered losses in his hands.

"I don't know where Yin Lan is now. I wonder if she has rescued Ji Beilan? Ji Beilan's whereabouts have always been a mystery. I don't know what he has been doing these years. However, I think he will not fall so easily. After all, he is..."

He shook his head, shaking off the worries in his heart.

......

The sky gradually darkened, the sun set in the west, and the evening glow reflected the twilight.

At this moment, mysterious order runes suddenly lit up in the ancient palace on the peak of the Broken Mountain.

The light was like stars shining, adorning the surface of the palace, very brilliant and magnificent.

Everyone's eyes were attracted and they all looked over.

At this time, as the runes on the palace flickered, beams of bright light were emitted.

The light beams were very peculiar, and they were not directly irradiated, but presented a parabolic trajectory.

They slanted upwards, drew an arc in the air, and then drooped down on each high platform, covering all the high platforms.

At this moment, streams of light continued to flash in the distant sky.

Strands of light cut through the twilight and fell on the stone platforms where the people of Tianjing Sect, Soul Hunting Hall, Ancient Phoenix Sect, and Golden Ancient City were located.

Jun Wuxie saw that those streams of light were all young people from the Four Supreme Dominators, around twenty or thirty years old, and each Supreme Dominator had sent eight people.

He turned on the Primal Chaos True Eyes and took a look, and there was inevitably a bit of strangeness on his face.

These people who arrived at this moment, he couldn't see through their depths. There was a mysterious power lingering on them, making his Primal Chaos True Eyes unable to窥视.

"These people seem to be not quite right!"

He said to the Grand Elder and Yue Chenyu beside him.

"It's not quite right..."

The Grand Elder also felt it.

"Sealed Ones."

Yue Chenyu's cold voice rang in their minds.

"What Sealed Ones?"

"People who have sealed their realm and the traces of time. Their real age should be in their early thirties, at the Great Heavenly Rank realm. They used special means to seal their realm at the Middle Heavenly Rank, and their age sealed within thirty, in order to avoid the Golden Scale Secret Realm's order detection."

"What? There is such a method?"

The Grand Elder was shocked. This kind of thing had never happened before. Their ancient academy's predecessors had not left any records about this, indicating that no one had done this before.

Jun Wuxie was stunned: "Can they really deceive the Golden Scale Secret Realm's order like this?"

Yue Chenyu said: "Don't underestimate the Four Supreme Dominators. You must know that they are not independent forces, and they all have backers behind them. The ancestors of the Ancient Phoenix Sect and the Golden Ancient City came from the Life Forbidden Zone. The existences behind the Tianjing Sect and the Soul Hunting Hall are even more mysterious. If there are experts to guide them, it is not impossible to deceive the order detection."

"But is it useful to do this?" Jun Wuxie was puzzled, "Even if they deceive the order detection when entering, they can only exert the strength after sealing in the Golden Scale Secret Realm. They have spent so much effort, it should not be just for being able to enter the secret realm to compete for the Holy Source, otherwise, wouldn't it be simpler to let the sect's young Supremes come?"

"Perhaps... After entering the Golden Scale Secret Realm, the order will no longer care about the realm of the entrants. And their age, they are always sealed, and will not reveal any flaws."

The Grand Elder analyzed this way, because in the process of continuously obtaining the Holy Source in the Golden Scale Secret Realm, the realm of the people participating in the test is not constant, it is changing, and it will continue to break through.

"Heh, the Four Supreme Dominators actually used this trick."

Jun Wuxie sneered, these forces were really racking their brains.

The Grand Elder said: "It should be because of you that they are doing this, otherwise there is no need at all. The people of other forces cannot compete with their young Supremes, and as long as they don't take the initiative to provoke the two major Life Forbidden Zones, they will not deliberately target them, so the purpose of this arrangement is very obvious, it is to target you!"

"Target me? I'm afraid they will be disappointed."

"Wuxie, you must not be careless and underestimate the enemy. These Sealed Ones, according to Yue Chenyu, are in their early thirties, indicating that they are all supreme-level figures of the same generation sealed down from the previous era, not those Great Heavenly Ranks you killed before!"

"That's true."

Jun Wuxie nodded, not denying it. He naturally knew this.

It's just that he has his own reliance and cards. No matter what tricks these people play, if they want to kill him in the Golden Scale Secret Realm, it's like dreaming.

At this time, the light beams from the palace on the mountain peak to the stone platforms gradually sank from the sky, changing from a parabolic trajectory to a straight trajectory.

Dense runes surged from the palace towards the beams of light, causing the beams to gradually evolve into bridges, starting from the point where they emitted from the palace.

In a short while, bridge after bridge was constructed, connecting each high platform to the palace.

The gates of the ancient palace remained tightly shut, showing no sign of opening.

However, at the ends of the light bridges connecting to the palace, wisps of runes converged, gradually weaving into oval-shaped gates of void.

Each light bridge from the high platforms connected to void gates in different locations.

"The Golden Scaled Secret Realm is finally about to open. According to the situation in previous epochs, the void gates will completely stabilize by tomorrow, at which point you can enter," the Great Elder said.

"Why doesn't this Golden Scaled Secret Realm simply open the main gate? Why use this method to open different void gates? Could it be that the different void gates correspond to different areas inside?"

"Indeed, in previous epochs, the secret realm opened in this manner. Those who enter will be guided to different locations within. Starting from that location, they will gradually challenge the checkpoints set by the secret realm's order managers. Only by passing the checkpoints can they continue along the path set by the order, and eventually, everyone will meet at the same location to compete for the final opportunity."

Jun Wuxie pondered slightly upon hearing this, then looked at Xu Yan'ning and the other prodigies, saying, "You'd best return to the high platforms of your respective sects and lead your sect's prodigies through the trials of the secret realm's order together. Otherwise, with their strength, they might not get very far. And if you stay here and enter the same gate as me, you're very likely to be affected by those who want to target me."

"I'll listen to Young Master Jun ~" Xu Yan'ning smiled sweetly at him.

"Yes, Divine King!" The other prodigies naturally had no objections. To them, the Divine King's words were law, especially since their sects had already become affiliated with the imperial dynasty.

In fact, they had already transcended the level of ordinary prodigies and stepped into the realm of young supreme beings.

The legendary domain was the hallmark of a young supreme being.

These individuals had received many opportunities from Jun Wuxie, and were already outstanding. Now, they had all entered the legendary domain.

However, they were all stuck at the initial level of the legendary domain.

This time, they had come to the Golden Scaled Secret Realm in the hopes of reaching a higher level.

"Remember, do not compete with the young supreme beings of those Supreme Masters. Only acquire sacred sources within your capabilities. Otherwise, you will all perish in the Golden Scaled Secret Realm. Only by staying alive is there a future. If you die, everything will vanish like smoke," Jun Wuxie instructed.

These young supreme beings were all ardent admirers of him, and had repeatedly expressed their desire to follow him.

Their sects had also relocated to the Immortal Execution Dynasty long ago, and were now considered sects under the dynasty's rule.

In the future, he planned to assign them to positions in the Black Armored Army to cope with the coming cataclysmic torrent.

"We respectfully obey the Divine King's decree!" The young supreme beings bowed and cupped their fists, their voices unified.

"Alright, you don't need to be so formal outside the dynasty. We are friends, no need to stand on ceremony."

The young supreme beings all lowered their heads, their voices unified: "Yes! We receive the Divine King's decree!"

Jun Wuxie: …

He was speechless and his forehead was covered with black lines. He had just spoken, but they still received his decree.

"Yue Chenyu!"

Just then, a cold, somber voice echoed from the high platform in the distance: "You despicable traitor, how dare you blatantly appear before us!"

Yue Chenyu looked over upon hearing the voice, her cold eyes as calm as ever.

She looked at the middle-aged man who descended from the sky and landed on the high platform of the Soul Hunting Hall, his entire body shrouded in a black robe, revealing only half of his slightly pale face, and said indifferently: "Hall Master of the Soul Hunting Hall, long time no see."

Jun Wuxie's pupils involuntarily constricted, his gaze instantly fixed on the middle-aged man in the black robe.

It was actually the Hall Master of the Soul Hunting Hall?

The Hall Master of the Soul Hunting Hall was a figure at the pinnacle of power. He never expected that he would personally come here.

Thinking of the grudges between the Soul Hunting Hall and himself since the Ancient God World, he suddenly felt an urge to rush up and kill him.

A cold light flashed in his eyes, and he forcibly suppressed the impulse in his heart.
