Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan-Chapter 384 - 390: Verification

"Let's go!"

At the instant the secret realm opened, Li Zhirui's figure flickered, transforming into a wisp of breeze, and in the blink of an eye, he overtook countless cultivators.

Seeing this, Wang Daozhi couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, before he quickly reacted and made his move, rushing towards the secret realm with all his might.

Li Zhirui's speed caught the attention of many, but it was a pity that they couldn't make out his appearance; even if they wanted to target him, they couldn't find the person.

Even so, when Li Zhirui entered the secret realm, he was still a step behind many cultivators, but only second to the True Disciples carefully nurtured by the various large forces. In his region, he was considered one of the top contenders, garnering the attention of many interested parties.

The Golden Core cultivators couldn't make out Li Zhirui's appearance, but could the Nascent Soul True Monarchs really lack such vision? And associating him with the position from which he flew out, several Nascent Soul True Monarchs remembered him and had their own plans in mind.

Of course, aside from Li Zhirui, there were also many eye-catching cultivators from other regions belonging to the large forces.

"It seems that this year is really a gathering of hidden dragons and crouching tigers!" A Nascent Soul True Monarch said with a light chuckle, as if recalling something.

"I still remember the last time the secret realm opened, Linghe from the Great Profound Sect faced defeat on the ninth layer. I wonder if anyone will surpass Linghe this year."

A Nascent Soul True Monarch who knew a bit of the insider information suddenly said, "Nowadays, Linghe has already reached the perfection of Nascent Soul and is undergoing closed-door cultivation to break through to Divine Transformation, right?"

When everyone heard this, they were inevitably shocked and then filled with boundless envy. Three hundred years ago, he was just a Golden Core cultivator, and among those present were those who had come to escort disciples.

But who would have thought that three hundred years later, not only would he be on equal footing with them, but he might even surpass them, soon becoming one to look up to! How could they not envy him!

"Indeed, Brother Linghe has already started his cultivation retreat," said the Nascent Soul from the Great Profound Sect with a smile, sealing her lips, no longer speaking.

"Congratulations. I suspect in a few hundred years, your sect will have another ascending being."

The Profound Origin Realm is merely a small world, with Divine Transformation as its limit. Anyone wanting to break through Void Refinement can only seek to transcend tribulation and then ascend to the Middle Thousand Worlds, or directly ascend to the Great Thousand World.

"Once Linghe emerges from his retreat, remember to let us know so that we can pay him a visit."

Everyone began to flatter, knowing in their hearts that the Nascent Soul from the Great Profound Sect wouldn't tell them; at most, the Great Profound Sect would make a public appearance and hold a grand ceremony.

But while everyone else was flattering, to stand out as the only one who doesn't could certainly leave a deep impression!

——

"Jiu and the others have already gone in, right?" Li Zhiyue looked at the now sparser crowd of cultivators and murmured to herself, "It's time for me to go in as well."

But considering Wang Daozhi's divination and extrapolation, Li Zhiyue felt some hesitation in her heart, as if a bottomless abyss lay before her, and she dared not take a step forward.

"Who cares whether it's life or death, if I don't enter the secret realm. How can I possibly avenge Mrs. Ting on my own?" The thought of the hatred within her instantly dispelled her hesitation and fear, and she flew towards the secret realm.

As Li Zhiyue decided to participate, the murderous aura between heaven and earth seemed like a river that had just been slightly unleashed, with rapid currents, hiding dangers within!

Soon, Li Zhiyue was completely engulfed by the secret realm, and the cultivators behind her were either uncompetitive and unaggressive – such people were very rare – or they were weak, or perhaps they were full of self-confidence, unafraid of those nefarious methods!

"Bang!"

As Li Zhiyue entered the Secret Realm, a mountain descended from the sky in an instant, followed closely by various attacks, all aiming to take her life with a single blow.

Fortunately, Li Zhiyue had anticipated this; the moment she stepped into the Secret Realm, she activated a Spirit Talisman and released her Contracted Spirit Beast. She then quickly brought out her twelve Life-bound Magic Treasure Dinghai Beads, unleashing Spirit Light to shield herself.

As rocks crumbled and dust flew, Li Zhiyue cautiously guarded her surroundings. She didn't even know where her opponents were hiding or how many there were; she could only defend passively.

But soon, three Divine Powers struck from different directions. Although Li Zhiyue managed to block this wave of attacks, her heart was filled with alarm.

There were at least three cultivators lying in ambush around her!

The Secret Realm of Wanxian would remain open for three months — a full one hundred days. During this time, entry and exit were not permitted unless one failed the trial within the stone tower and was directly teleported out.

Some cultivators, feeling they couldn't pass the higher-level trials, didn't plan to spend too much time on them. Instead, they would lie in wait throughout the Secret Realm to prey on other cultivators to seize their resources.

Unluckily, right as Li Zhiyue entered the Secret Realm, she was targeted by three such individuals who had fortuitously teleported nearby.

Facing the siege of three cultivators of equal realm, Li Zhiyue dodged in a very ungainly manner, the light from the Dinghai Beads dimming. If things continued like this, she feared she would meet her end here!

Such an outcome was naturally unacceptable to Li Zhiyue. While resisting and counterattacking, she looked for an opportunity to escape.

Crack—

Another attack shattered the Defensive Spiritual Light completely. Li Zhiyue was momentarily stunned, failing to react, and an ice arrow grazed her arm. Her vestment robe protected her from this strike, but that was all.

The three cultivators hidden in the darkness were overjoyed, seizing the opportunity decisively. Howling winds swept through the surroundings.

Yet, Li Zhiyue's actions surprised them — she rushed directly towards a certain direction, straight at the hiding place of one of the cultivators!

Seeing the bad turn of events, that person, without completing his spell, hurriedly hurled something at Li Zhiyue, which she blocked quite easily.

"Die!" The Dinghai Beads, unbeknownst to when she had deployed them, released blinding five-colored beams, soaring through the air and piercing directly through his chest.

Li Zhiyue hastily stashed the body into her storage bag and transformed into a rainbow light, fleeing rapidly with her heart pounding wildly as she pushed her flying speed to its limit.

This series of sudden events overwhelmed the other two. By the time they reacted, Li Zhiyue had already vanished into the horizon.

The trio had come together solely for the sake of profit, lacking any true affection for one another. Naturally, they wouldn't chase after Li Zhiyue over one dead person. After a brief discussion, the two decided to lie in ambush nearby, knowing the recent fight would certainly attract other cultivators.

When that time came, those cultivators would become their prey!

"Whew whew—"

Li Zhiyue, not knowing how far she had fled, hid within the lush foliage of a tree canopy, her chest heaving with rapid breaths.

She had just entered the Secret Realm and encountered the ambush of three Golden Core cultivators. That reception was precisely as Wang Daozhi had predicted — her divination was quite accurate indeed, thought Li Zhiyue, trying to find humor in her predicament.

"This fellow cultivator, you have taken my spot. Shouldn't you say something and offer compensation?" an icy voice suddenly rang out, adding, "I think repaying with your life would be quite appropriate."
