The secret realm was in the belly of the mountain. Although there was a formation set up on the outside, the inside was so dark that one couldn't even see their fingers in front of them. Fortunately, they all had divine sense, so they could avoid the awkwardness of bumping into each other.
After entering the secret realm, they first stabilized their bodies. Then, Yan Zhan, Yang Li, and Su Wanqing spread out their spiritual power, illuminating the entire secret realm. Only then could they see the situation inside.
What they saw were two pitch-black paths that led in two different directions. Traceless Wind once said that the path on the left was for Spirit Movement Realm cultivators, which could help them break through to the Illuminating Soul Realm.
The path on the right was for Illuminating Soul Realm cultivators, which could help them break through to the Controlling Soul Realm. No matter which path it was, below the ninth level, one's spiritual power would at most increase by one level.
Moreover, the path from Spirit Movement Realm to Illuminating Soul Realm wouldn't have any effect at all, and their spiritual power wouldn't increase.
After looking at each other, Traceless Wind said, "The secret realm will only work for the same person once. It won't work the second time. Only geniuses can enter."
"Miss Su, you and Zixu should go to the Illuminating Soul Realm path. The four of us will go to the Spirit Movement Realm path. However, you guys have to be careful, because it's my first time here. Although I said there won't be any danger, I can't guarantee that there won't be any."
Su Wanqing and Zixu nodded and walked towards the Illuminating Soul Realm path.
The other four walked towards the Spirit Movement Realm path on the left.
Along the way, Yang Li and Yan Zhan released their spiritual power to illuminate the surroundings. On both sides of the path were stone walls, and the further they walked, the narrower and shorter it became. In the end, it became a path that could only be passed by one person. As a last resort, they could only form a line and walk forward. Yan Zhan and Yang Li were at the front and the back respectively.
This way, no matter what happened in front or behind, the four of them would be able to react quickly.
After walking for about a quarter of an hour, Yang Li, who was walking in the front, suddenly saw light in front of him. His heart couldn't help but fluctuate, and he immediately said in a deep voice, "There's light in front, it should be the exit."
The other three also became spirited. They had finally found the exit. This place was really cramped, making them feel uncomfortable.
Soon, the four of them walked out of the small path, but when they exited the cave, Yang Li clearly felt that they had passed through a layer of something.
The dazzling sunlight suddenly shone down, and the four of them could not help but feel a little uncomfortable. They all squinted their eyes, and it took a while for them to recover.
After the blinding feeling disappeared, everyone began to size up the scene in front of them.
The first thing they felt was the dense Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, which was ten times denser than outside!
The place where the four of them appeared was a small platform. In front of them was a valley, and in the middle of the valley was a shallow pool. The pool was so clear that they could see the stones at the bottom and the small fish swimming back and forth.
There were all sorts of strange flowers around the pool. Looking at those strange flowers, Yang Li was a bit shocked. He had seen those flowers before, but it was in the Ancient Secret Land. He had asked around in the real world, but these flowers had never appeared.
The valley was surrounded by lush trees, and they could faintly see a winding path behind the trees. Seeing this path, Yang Li's mind moved.
"Could it be that there is a place with even denser Spiritual Qi here?" Yang Li thought. Just as he was about to ask Traceless Wind, Traceless Wind opened his mouth.
"This is the place to advance to the Spiritual Movement Realm. I don't know what the place to advance to the Illuminating God Realm looks like, but it should be similar to this place. I told you before that we have to sit in the pool and cultivate."
The three of them nodded, and Yang Li opened his mouth and said, "Traceless Wind, where does the path behind lead to?"
Feng Wuhen looked at the small path that Yang Li had mentioned and gave a wry smile. He said, "I don't know where that small path leads either. Our family once invited a Dharma realm cultivator who was kind to our family to come here."
"As soon as he arrived, he went straight through the small path. However, even with his Dharma state level 3 cultivation, he still couldn't break through the small path. According to him, there's a formation blocking him from moving forward. He couldn't break through it."
"Formation blocking?" Yang Li pondered. The beast skin's memory said that any formation could be ignored, but a formation that even a Dharma Realm Cultivator couldn't pass made Yang Li feel uncertain. Although he had never seen the power of a Dharma Realm Cultivator, he had heard of it.
Seeing that Yang Li was silent, Traceless Wind casually said, "Let's go, let's go down." After that, Traceless Wind directly walked down.
As Yang Li followed, he looked at the path, and the desire to explore in his heart grew stronger. Yang Li's eyes narrowed, and he thought, "Let's go take a look. There's no loss if we can't get through."
Thinking of this, Yang Li directly said, "Traceless Wind, you three go ahead and cultivate. I'll take a look at the path."
After hearing Yang Li's words, Traceless Wind thought for a moment, and said, "Let's go together. That way, we can look after each other in case something happens."
"Alright, let's go." After saying that, Yang Li looked at Xue Qinghan and Yan Zhan. Xue Qinghan shrugged, indicating that it didn't matter if he went or not. If they went, they would go together. Yan Zhan still had an indifferent expression on his face as he nodded.
Thereupon, the four of them continued walking along the path. The trees on both sides of the path blocked the sunlight, making it extremely mottled, but it was still very beautiful.
The flowers on both sides of the path also gave off a refreshing fragrance, which calmed the hearts of the four of them. The flowers and trees in the valley were clearly not poisonous. Instead, they were extremely beneficial to one's cultivation.
After walking for a whole hour, the four of them finally saw the end of the path. At the end of the path was the peak of the valley, which was completely concealed by a formation. Even the scenery outside the valley was obscured by the formation.
After reaching the end of the path, the four of them tried attacking the formation. The formation glowed brightly and absorbed all of their spiritual energy. Not even the slightest ripple could be seen on it.
"Sigh, looks like there's no hope for us to explore anymore." Traceless Wind sighed. This secret realm had been in their family's hands for several hundred years, and there were cultivators who went to explore it from time to time. It was just that no one had ever reached the end of the path.
Yang Li frowned slightly and said, "You guys go back first. I'll study this formation and see if we can enter." After saying that, Yang Li ignored the three of them and began to study the formation.
Traceless Wind and the others were shocked. "Aren't you going to cultivate? Even if you can't break through to the Illuminating Deity realm, you can still make a breakthrough. "
After giving a perfunctory reply, Yang Li continued to study the formation. In reality, he was thinking, I'll go in after the three of you go back.
The three of them tried to persuade him. After finding that Yang Li didn't respond, they sighed and shook their heads. They walked back the way they came. In their hearts, they couldn't understand Yang Li's self-abandonment. Even if Yang Li could beat the three of them now, after breaking through to the Illuminating Deity realm, the three of them could definitely beat Yang Li up.
After a while, Yang Li turned his head and saw that the figures of the three of them had disappeared. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief. He murmured, "The animal skin reacted just now. It should be possible to go in. Let's give it a try."
After saying that, Yang Li took out the animal skin and poured spiritual energy into it. He let the silver light cover his whole body and directly walked in.
After walking over, Yang Li found that it was not a formation, but a layer of barrier. It was something much more advanced than a formation.
There were four kinds of formations and similar things on the mainland. One was a barrier, one was a formation pattern, one was a formation, and the last one was a barrier.
The barrier was the simplest, and all cultivators knew how to use it. It was just an ordinary spiritual barrier.
The second was a formation pattern. Many cultivators knew how to use some simple formation patterns to cover caves or to block monsters and so on. There were also many wonderful uses. Just like the formation pattern in the secret realm of the Old Weapon Master, there were many kinds of formation patterns mixed together, and it had an incredible effect.
The formation was a bit fixed. Each formation had a fixed function and effect. Most of them were used for weapons. A professional formation master could mix a variety of formations to use, so that the same formation had many functions.
The barrier was the strongest. The barrier was definitely a formation, but the formation was not necessarily a barrier. The barrier was made up of many intersecting formations. The structure was very strange, and at the same time, it had many functions. The most powerful formation master could even create a small world.
After Yang Li passed through the barrier, he appeared in a stone house. There were eight night pearls placed around him, and their soft light illuminated the entire stone house. In the stone house, there was a stone bed, a simple chair, and some furniture and supplies that were necessary for a normal family's daily life. Everything was covered in dust.
Yang Li stood in front of a stone table. On the stone table was a round sphere. The sphere was emitting a colorful light, and next to the sphere was a piece of toilet paper.
Yang Li picked up the toilet paper and carefully read it. After reading it, Yang Li was really surprised.
Because the environment they were in before was this sphere. The sphere was called the Illusion Void Sphere, and it had ten times the spiritual power of the outside world.
Moreover, it was not like what it looked like on the surface. It could only be used when breaking through to the Spirit Connection and Spirit Controlling realms. In fact, it could also be used when breaking through to the Harmonious Spirit Realm.
However, there was a harsh condition to use it when breaking through to the Harmonious Spirit Realm, and that was to have divine sense at the Spirit Movement Realm.
The Illusion Void Sphere could not be moved, and it could not be collected. Therefore, it was useless for Yang Li to come here. This made Yang Li feel a little regretful.
However, as the first person to come here, Yang Li naturally had his benefits. He knew where to enter to break through to the Harmonious Spirit Realm, and he also knew the place inside the Illusion Void Sphere that had the densest spiritual power.
That place could let Yang Li directly break through two levels and reach the Spirit Realm, which was a pleasant surprise.
