Chapter 215: Inside the Secret Realm
This is because, from what he had heard, the first-ever secret realm was the rarest secret realm in the void-an upgradable secret realm.
This kind of secret realm is the hardest to find as it takes a world of eons of saving up energy to create one, which, as for the Supreme Will, could create one in a shorter time span, but it will not do it unless it is a reward.
But those kinds of rewards are only available in the Race lists, which he has only heard about before and never seen in person. He is not sure if that is true or not.
But for now, he has more important things to think about, like what kind of secret realm this is and what its initial realm restriction is.
This is normal as each secret realm has a few set rules, including that only a certain number of people can go in at the same time. Restrictions on the cultivation realms also prevent some of the higher-leveled ones from entering the secret realm.
Xu Qianghua's thoughts were interrupted when he felt the Spiritual Qi intake by the pillar slowing down.
This meant that the secret realm was close to completion, which made him frown as he quickly mobilized his own Spiritual Qi and created a formation sealing the sounding area.
He did this because every new secret realm would have a Celestial Phenomenon that would be seen by many people, which is not what he wanted.
As he planned on taking this item to the Empyrean Harmony Sect, where they could use it to train their disciples.
And why not bring it to the Xu family subspace? They already have their own secret realm, which he had gotten before; it was called the Key of the Ancients.
The Xu family has been using this item for the second month, which is why the clan members' combat experience is pretty good.
So he was not really excited about this secret realm, but as he thought more about this, he felt that giving it to one of them might now be a good idea.
After some thought, he came up with a new way of doing this: instead of giving it to the Sect as a gift, he could give it to both the Sect and the Empire, who are also in need of this.
But he can't give it to them in front of others as that would cause others to ask for one, which is why he planned to place it in the middle of Jingzhong City and the Sect.
This way, both of those forces can send their geniuses to compete in the secret realm.
Later, with a quick infusion of his Qi, he opened a portal directly into the heart of the secret realm. As soon as he entered, he took in the environment—a sprawling expanse filled with vibrant landscapes, mysterious flora, and the faint presence of low-level wild beasts.
The realm was rich in spiritual energy, much more concentrated than in the outside world. Every stone, plant, and tree seemed infused with Spiritual Qi.
But before he could move, the secret realm started to tremble as small cracks started to appear. The ground beneath him quaked, and the sky above started to crack at a fast speed.
The shaking intensified, cracks forming in the air around him like glass under pressure. His cultivation level was too high for this realm to handle, and he realized it might collapse before it could serve its purpose.
This surprised him a little as he was expecting this secret realm to at least be able to handle his cultivation, but it did not.
Seeing that without his help, the chances of this secret realm collapsing were high, he used his Spiritual Qi with the help of the Spatial laws.
The trembling gradually subsided, and the cracks in the air closed, restoring the secret realm to its former state.
Satisfied with this, he relaxed a little as he looked closer at the surroundings.
The landscape was diverse: rolling hills, dense forests, and narrow rivers cutting through rocky valleys.
Small pockets of mist floated over the ground, likely concealing rare herbs or formations that younger cultivators could use for breakthroughs.
As he moved deeper, he sensed multiple cultures of wild beasts roaming around, but most of them were low-level, so they could not see him at all, making his journey smoother than ever.
As he went deeper, Xu Qianghua discovered several hidden formations embedded in the land.
They seem to be the major formations that run the secret realm, but due to him, they showed up as a last-ditch effort.
Before they could try the last-ditch effort, Xu Qianghua restored the secret realm.
Without a good training ground, this secret real is useless, so he needs to ensure that this secret realm is worth it.
This took him a few hours as he killed some beasts to see if they had anything special.
After a while, Xu Qianghua was done searching for the things that he needed, but what caught his eye was a small pond at the heart of the secret realm.
