"I will go to one of the fourteenth-tier top-grade secret realms, but I'm not sure which one it will be yet," Chen Fei said after thinking for a moment.
Chen Fei's Yuanli cultivation had already reached the peak of the early stage of the Immortal Realm, and his physique was already at 70% of the early stage of the Immortal Realm. As long as he obtained a 14th-grade mid-level spiritual material, he could break through to the mid-stage of the Immortal Realm.
As Wei Yangxia said, we are now in a time of great contention; if we do not advance, we will retreat, and there is nowhere to hide.
What will happen to the seemingly secure portal a few years from now? Nobody knows.
"You're going to the secret realm? You've only just broken through to the Immortal Realm. Even if you want to collect Immortal Crystals, there's no need to rush." Wei Yangxia frowned upon hearing Chen Fei's words.
Wei Yangxia assumed that Chen Fei entered the fourteenth-tier secret realm for the sake of the Immortal Mystic Crystal, without considering the possibility of it being a mid-grade spiritual material of the fourteenth tier.
After all, Chen Fei had only recently broken through to the mid-stage of the Immortal Realm, and he would need at least a considerable period of arduous cultivation to reach that point. As for how long he would need to cultivate, that would depend on how much of Chen Fei's talent he could demonstrate within the fourteenth rank.
As for the Immortal Crystal, it is naturally an extremely important item for all Immortal Realm cultivators, but Chen Fei does not currently lack Immortal Crystals. Therefore, staying in the Illusionary Sect to cultivate is the best choice.
“Reinventing the wheel is not my method of cultivation. If I hadn’t gone to the Star Boundary, I wouldn’t have been able to cultivate to my current level so quickly.” Chen Fei chuckled softly.
Upon hearing Chen Fei mention the Star Realm, Wei Yangxia opened her mouth slightly, but ultimately did not try to persuade him further.
Everyone is at the Immortal Realm. Although Wei Yangxia's cultivation level is higher than Chen Fei's, he cannot make any decisions for Chen Fei, especially since Chen Fei seems to have made up his mind.
Just like when he challenged the Xuan Ranking, Chen Fei, despite being underestimated by everyone, ultimately reached second place on the Xuan Ranking.
"In the next few days, information about those three secret realms will gradually emerge. Take a look then," Wei Yangxia said after a moment's thought.
"Understood, thank you Elder Wei." Chen Fei nodded, understanding that Wei Yangxia was indeed thinking of him.
However, Chen Fei's own situation is not something she can disclose to outsiders.
The emergence of three secret realms of the fourteenth rank or above is naturally a major event in the Tianxuan Domain. Just as Wei Yangxia said, news of the secret realms has been continuously reported for several days.
The Illusionary Sect is a first-rate power in the Tianxuan Domain, so it naturally has no shortage of intelligence. Therefore, Chen Fei only needed to stay in the Illusionary Sect to gain a general understanding of the three secret realms.
In the fourteenth-tier supreme secret realm in the western region of the Xuan Yu Realm, there are no longer any normal living beings; the entire secret realm has been transformed into a blazing furnace.
Although there were no normal living beings among them, new fire spirits were born under these extreme fiery conditions.
These fire spirits possess a certain level of intelligence, but not to the standard of normal living beings, and are extremely irritable.
It is the kind of creature that will provoke a frenzied attack if you get too close, much like the monsters within the natural barrier.
These fire spirits are fearless of differences in cultivation level. If they are angered, they will launch suicidal attacks until they are exhausted or simply self-destruct.
Furthermore, the self-destruction of the Fire Spirit will cause changes in the rules within the secret realm, triggering even more intense rule attacks.
The attacks from the rules are drawing fire spirits from even more distant places, causing them to converge on this area.
In other words, if you enter such a secret realm, you might be surrounded and attacked by a dense swarm of fire spirits if you're not careful, until you die from exhaustion.
Extreme environments, combined with extreme fire elementals, pose an immense danger.
However, due to this extreme environment, preliminary investigations suggest that the reserves of Immortal Crystals within this secret realm may be quite astonishing, and the fire spirits have no interest in those Immortal Crystals.
The power of these fire spirits is entirely dependent on the secret realm. They may dissipate on their own once they leave the secret realm. Therefore, these fire spirits may not be able to use the power of the Immortal Crystal, after all, they lack spiritual intelligence.
As for whether there are any spiritual talents among them, it is currently unknown.
However, judging from common sense, such a fourteenth-level secret realm would inevitably produce a large number of high-ranking spiritual materials, especially since fire spirits do not occupy high-ranking spiritual materials.
"This secret realm in the Western Regions is currently being watched by a large number of cultivators and Yuan Demons. Although the environment inside is harsh, it's nothing to us Immortal Realm cultivators. At most, we'll encounter those fire spirits, which will be more troublesome to deal with. Also, if a battle takes place inside, there might be other unexpected situations."
On Xingyue Peak, Wei Yangxia sat in the courtyard, drinking a cup of tea, the delicate aroma of which filled the surroundings.
Wei Yangxia did not address Yuan Mo as Yuan Xiu, which was clearly against the Alliance's rules, but now that they were inside the Illusion Gate, Wei Yangxia did not care about that.
Wei Yangxia had been cultivating for many years. Before the extraterrestrial demons appeared, Wei Yangxia had been fighting against those Yuan Demons. From the bottom of his heart, Wei Yangxia did not want to form an alliance with those Yuan Demons.
However, circumstances are beyond human control. If cultivators hadn't allied with the Yuan Demon, the situation in the Xuan Yu Realm would be even worse than it is now.
"How about the other fourteenth-tier secret realm?" Chen Fei poured Wei Yangxia a cup of tea.
“The other secret realm isn’t quite normal either. The Fire Spirit Secret Realm doesn’t have any normal living beings. The secret realm in the Southern Region doesn’t even have any living beings. About 50% of it is land, 30% is sea, and 20% is desert,” Wei Yangxia said, frowning.
The secret realm is a plane that has developed through distortion, but under normal circumstances, it can grow to the fourteenth level, and even to the level of the fourteenth-level top quality, when the distortion of the Heavenly Dao will not be extreme.
Otherwise, the secret realm might collapse on its own around the twelfth level, or turn into demonic energy and disappear into the primordial energy of heaven and earth and the origin of the void.
Alternatively, it could disintegrate into numerous ordinary planes of the eighth or ninth order, and then rebuild itself.
The situation in the Fire Spirit Realm could be attributed to a malfunction in the Heavenly Dao, leading to extreme environmental changes. However, it would still give rise to new life forms, such as those fire spirits. If given more time, they might very well transform into demonic creatures.
But that secret realm in the Southern Region is too strange. It doesn't seem like the Heavenly Dao just made a mistake, causing the extinction of all living beings, nor does it seem like it was invaded by foreign enemies, such as those extraterrestrial demons who discovered it in advance and wiped out the living beings there.
"Have you found any traces of Immortal Mystic Crystals or Ranked Spiritual Materials?" Chen Fei asked Wei Yangxia.
"This is what's even stranger. We haven't seen any exact traces of Immortal Crystals or Ranked Spiritual Materials yet, but from many clues, we can tell that the secret realm once possessed Immortal Crystals and Ranked Spiritual Materials, and in considerable quantities."
Wei Yangxia picked up his teacup, took a sip, and continued:
"It's still just an exploration, but many powerful figures believe that the Immortal Mystic Crystal and the Rank Spiritual Materials are deep within that secret realm. It's just that it's not easy to explore right now because those extraterrestrial demons are waiting for an opportunity to strike."
"What about that fifteenth-tier secret realm? What's the situation there?" Chen Fei asked curiously.
The Fire Spirit Realm in the Western Regions and the secret realm in the Southern Region are not normal secret realms. This may be why they suddenly appeared in the world when demonic energy was surging.
"According to the ancestor, it was a mid-grade fifteenth-tier secret realm, even stronger than the Star Boundary back then. However, the power of the Heavenly Dao is currently surging within that secret realm, blocking all beings attempting to enter," Wei Yangxia said in a low voice.
"Stop us from the outside? Didn't we tell the creatures in that secret realm that their location is rife with demonic energy, and that they might be wiped out by those heavenly demons?" Chen Fei asked, somewhat surprised.
The fifteenth-tier secret realm can forcibly expel beings that are not from this secret realm, just as the Star Realm Overlord did back then.
But the situation in Xuan Yu Realm back then was completely different from what it is now.
Outside the Tianxuan Domain, demonic energy surges. Such dense demonic energy corrodes and permeates everything it touches, even the Xuanyu Realm itself is affected, let alone the secret realm.
The fifteenth-tier secret realm can withstand the Dominator Realm, or even the peak of the Dominator Realm, but it cannot withstand the taint of demonic energy. After that, the barrier of the fifteenth-tier secret realm will be penetrated, and the beings within will be transformed into demons.
Even though beings above the thirteenth rank within the secret realm could temporarily resist the demonic energy, the extraterrestrial demons could freely enter and exit the secret realm at that time.
Even after the barrier of the secret realm was tainted by demonic energy, cultivators and primordial demons were still unable to enter the secret realm, but extraterrestrial demons could.
With the power of the extraterrestrial demons, a level 15 secret realm simply could not withstand their slaughter.
Even a powerful force like the Astral Realm has begun to migrate after this outbreak of demonic energy.
Furthermore, those secret realms that were initially unwilling to cooperate with cultivators and Yuan Demons have gradually begun to relocate into the Tianxuan Domain.
However, not all the previously emerging secret realms chose the cultivators' side; quite a few chose the side of the extraterrestrial demons.
It's nothing more than the promises of the extraterrestrial demons and the alliance between those secret realms that have no faith in cultivators and primordial demons.
Those extraterrestrial demons had tried to persuade the Yuan Demon to surrender, but apart from cooperating in some secret realms, the Yuan Demon did not completely defect in the end.
Because the Yuan Demons are too large, if the extraterrestrial demons were to become the rulers of the Xuan Yu Realm, the Yuan Demons would certainly be purged; this is beyond doubt.
On the contrary, the number of creatures within those secret realms is not large at all compared to the entire Xuan Yu Realm, and they do have a chance to escape this calamity after the extraterrestrial demons dominate the world.
"I don't know what the ruler of that fifteenth-tier secret realm is thinking, that he's trying to keep us out," Wei Yangxia said, shaking his head.
"Elder Wei, which secret realm do you plan to go to?" Chen Fei continued.
Since we can't enter the fifteenth-tier secret realm for the time being, we only have two fourteenth-tier top-grade secret realms left to choose from.
However, even if the fifteenth-tier secret realm is accessible, it's estimated that not many Immortal Realm cultivators would choose to go. After all, the fifteenth-tier secret realm allows entry to the Sovereign Realm, and some of these realms themselves are Sovereign Realm cultivators.
If such a powerful figure were to be encountered in a hostile situation, there would be absolutely no other possibility.
On the contrary, the fourteenth-tier secret realm can only be entered by those below the Sovereign Realm; those in the Immortal Realm need not worry about encountering overwhelming power.
Of course, this is under the condition of having a choice.
If only one fifteenth-tier secret realm were to emerge, just like the Star Boundary back then, then the Immortal Realm would still enter it.
Furthermore, the fifteenth-tier secret realm has another advantage: the spiritual materials available for those below the fifteenth tier are quite abundant.
"I haven't decided yet. I'll wait for more detailed information about that secret realm in the Southern Region before making a decision," Wei Yangxia said after a moment of contemplation.
Half an hour later, Chen Fei escorted Wei Yangxia out of Xingyue Peak.
Chen Fei watched Wei Yangxia's figure disappear into the horizon before returning to the courtyard.
The secret realm in the Southern Region, based on what we know, is shrouded in mystery. On the other hand, the dangers of the Fire Spirit Secret Realm in the Western Region are almost obvious.
Therefore, after listening to Wei Yangxia's introduction of the two fourteenth-tier secret realms, Chen Fei already had a preference in mind.
Ten days passed in the blink of an eye. In the lifeless secret realm of the Southern Region, Immortal Mystic Crystals were discovered. Although the quantity was small, they were indeed found.
As for the Fire Spirit Secret Realm in the Western Regions, no further information has been released.
To learn more about the Fire Spirit Realm, you either have to keep waiting or go there yourself.
Three days later, Chen Fei appeared outside the Elder Hall on the main peak.
Chen Fei looked up at the sky and saw that the ancestor Le Boyang was standing there, resting with his eyes closed.
Seemingly sensing Chen Fei's gaze, Le Boyang looked down at Chen Fei, a smile appearing in his eyes.
Those who are heading to the Fire Spirit Secret Realm in the Western Regions today, both those at the Immortal Realm and those at the Void True God Realm, will gather here and then be escorted out of the Fire Spirit Secret Realm by Le Boyang.
In the past, when a secret realm appeared, it wouldn't have required a Sovereign Realm ancestor to personally escort it.
However, with the extraterrestrial demons eyeing us covetously, without the protection of a Sovereign Realm expert, we risk being intercepted and killed by those Sovereign Realm experts of the extraterrestrial demons halfway.
Le Boyang withdrew his gaze and closed his eyes again.
When Le Boyang saw that Chen Fei was also heading to the Fire Spirit Secret Realm, he was actually a little surprised, after all, Chen Fei had only recently broken through to the Immortal Realm and did not lack Immortal Mystic Crystals.
In this situation, the best way to cultivate is to stay inside the Illusion Gate, comprehend the fourteenth-tier core inheritance within the gate, and then refine the Immortal Mystic Crystal to gradually improve one's cultivation level, rather than venturing out to some secret realm.
However, the path of cultivation is one's own choice, and as long as he does not do anything to harm the sect, Le Boyang has no reason to stop Chen Fei from going to the secret realm for training.
An hour later, Le Boyang opened his eyes, looked at the disciples gathered below, and waved his right hand, taking all the disciples into his own plane.
Le Boyang looked up into the distance, took a step forward with his right foot, and his figure disappeared.
Western Regions, beyond the Fire Spirit Secret Realm.
From time to time, powerful beings at the Sovereign Realm would appear here, sending their disciples from within the plane into the secret realm, and then staying nearby instead of leaving.
In the past, a Sovereign Realm expert could forcibly tear apart the barrier of a 14th-tier secret realm and even attack the creatures within it.
Therefore, when two fourteenth-tier secret realms appeared this time, the first thought of the rulers of the Tianxuan Domain was to tear apart the dimensional barrier and plunder the resources inside.
After trying it out, the Heavenly Profound Domain Sovereigns were surprised to find that the outer barrier of the fourteenth-order secret realm could not be torn apart.
As these two fourteenth-tier secret realms emerged after being activated by demonic energy, their heavenly laws and barriers seemed to be connected with all the demonic energy in the Xuan Yu Realm.
Since brute force cannot break through the barriers of the two fourteenth-tier secret realms, all these Sovereign Realm experts can do now is to guard outside the secret realms and provide support to their sect's members at any time.
