The arrival of the Dragon Lady from the Dragon Lair in the sea's forbidden zone caused a brief commotion, but it quickly quieted down.
The atmosphere was a little stifling, especially for those below the Paragon level. The experts from those sects sighed inwardly.
They looked at the young prodigies beside them, their hearts filled with worry.
The appearance of the Golden Scale Secret Realm had completely overturned their expectations.
They had originally thought that only the four Paragon level prodigies would be a threat. They hadn't expected people from the Golden Ancient Mine and the Dragon Lair in the sea to come.
The one from the Paragon level Heavenly Pure Sect wasn't a young Paragon, but a Middle Arcana!
They naturally wouldn't allow their sect's prodigies to compete with the Paragon Sovereigns for the opportunities within the Golden Scale Secret Realm. However, the stronger the Paragon Sovereigns were, the faster they would be able to obtain the opportunities within the Golden Scale Secret Realm. If that happened, their sect's people would only be able to pick up the leftovers.
"Grand Elder, how much do you know about the Golden Scale Secret Realm?"
Jun Wu Xie scanned the crowd. Up until now, it seemed like all the factions above the Paragon level were present.
There weren't many people from the Paragon level factions. There were only two or three people from the younger generation. The other factions' younger generation had around 10 to 20 people.
"The Golden Scale Secret Realm only appears once every epoch. Although the predecessors of the Aeon Ancient Court have left behind information about the Golden Scale Secret Realm, this information isn't of much value to the current era."
Jun Wu Xie was stunned. "Why is that?"
"Because the situation inside the Golden Scale Secret Realm is different every time it appears. The Saintly Source will appear in different forms. However, there's one thing. Every time someone enters the Golden Scale Secret Realm, they have to pass a test to obtain the Saintly Source. Before it opens, the order inside will set up a test. However, we don't know what it will be this time. "
"Grand Elder, are you saying that the order in the Golden Scale Secret Realm has its own consciousness?"
"It's hard to say. Perhaps it's consciousness, or perhaps it's a will given by the existence that created the Golden Scale Secret Realm. In any case, after entering the Golden Scale Secret Realm, everyone can only follow the method set by the administrator of the secret realm and pass the test to obtain the Saintly Source. "
Grand Elder paused and patted Jun Wu Xie's shoulder. "Keep it up. Try to get as many saintly sources as possible and use this opportunity to break through to the middle Celestial realm. By that time, the Heaven-rank Contest would have reached a critical point. We received news that some of the young Supremes of the Saint Crossing Ancient Manor have already stepped into the Middle Celestial Realm. We have to win the Demi-Immortal contest. That way, not only will we have more spots, but we'll also have priority in entering the Demi-Immortal Secret Zone. "
"The Paramount celestial realm is a hurdle. With your talent and comprehension, breaking through to the Paramount celestial realm shouldn't be a problem, but I'm afraid it'll take a lot of time, and what we lack the most in this life is time. Therefore, if we have the privilege of entering the empyrean secret realm first, we'll have a greater chance of obtaining an ultimate empyrean dao fruit! Fusing with an apex celestial dao fruit would allow one to break through the apex celestial shackles in a short time. If the person fused with it is already a greater celestial pinnacle cultivation, he would be able to break through to the ultimate celestial state within a few days! "
"I know you have the Hundred Luck Fruit, but if you want to use it to break through to the Extreme Celestial Realm in the future, you'll need a lot, and it'll be a waste. It's best to save it for when you break through to the Sage stage in the Upper World. "
Jun Wu Xie couldn't help but frown when she heard this, "Below the Extreme Celestial Realm, it seems that each breakthrough only requires one Hundred Fortune Fruit. Great Elder, are you sure you need a lot of Hundred Fortune Fruits to break through to the Extreme Celestial Realm?"
"This old man is very sure. Didn't you give us the Hundred Luck Fruit? We've studied it repeatedly. The Hundred Luck Fruit's energy grade is very high, but the Extreme Celestial Realm is very special. The entire half-sage realm itself is very unique. It's a path that's forcefully carved out at the peak of the Holy Ancestor realm. The Extreme Celestial Realm is the biggest shackle in the half-sage realm. It's not a normal realm, and it's even more unique than the Extreme Celestial Realm. "
"This greatly reduces the Hundred Luck Fruit's effect, so it'll be a waste to use it on this. This won't happen when you break through to the Sage Realm in the future, because the Sage Realm itself is a normal realm that already exists in the system. "
"I see …" Jun Wu Xie nodded, "Don't worry, Grand Elder. We won't lose to Sacred Ancient Residence in the Empyrean Realm again. We'll definitely get the Extreme Celestial Dao Fruit in the Empyrean Secret Realm!"
"Mm." Grand Elder nodded, "When the time comes, do your best to get as many Extreme Celestial Dao Fruits as possible. We'll have a few more Extreme Celestial Realm young sovereigns."
"I'll do my best."
Jun Wu Xie understood. There was no reason not to get as many Extreme Celestial Dao Fruits as possible.
His women and friends needed them, and so did his two junior brothers.
If he could get them Extreme Celestial Dao Fruits, they'd be able to step into the Extreme Celestial Realm when the apocalypse arrived. They'd have a stronger ability to protect themselves.
He couldn't help but think of Kong Xu and Xu Daoling. They were still roaming the cosmos, and there was no telling when they'd return.
He didn't have their communicator, so he couldn't contact them. He didn't dare use the communicator to attract their attention and make them contact him of their own accord.
That would expose their identities. If people learned they were from the Immortal-Slaying Sword Sect, they'd definitely be hunted down by those who'd targeted the Immortal-Slaying Sword Sect and those who'd suffered at his hands.
"I wonder where Yinlan is right now. Did she save Ji Beilan? Ji Beilan's whereabouts have always been a mystery. Who knows what he's been doing all these years. But I don't think he'll die so easily. He's a.... "
He shook his head, shaking off his worries.
… …
The sky gradually darkened as the sun set over the western mountains.
Mysterious runes of order suddenly lit up in the ancient palace at the peak of Broken Mountain.
It sparkled like a Star, adorning the surface of the palace in a dazzling and magnificent display.
Everyone's gaze was attracted as they looked over.
At that moment, the runes on the palace flickered, and a resplendent beam of light shot out.
The beam of light was very strange. It didn't illuminate directly, but followed a parabolic trajectory.
It slanted upwards, drawing an arc in the air before descending on each of the high platforms, enveloping all of them.
At that moment, streams of light kept flashing in the distant sky.
Streams of light cut through the dusk and landed on the stone platforms where the people from the Tian Qing Sect, Soul Hunting Hall, Ancient Phoenix Sect, and Ancient Golden City were.
Jun Wu Xie saw that the streams of light were all young people from the four Supreme Sovereigns. They were in their twenties or thirties, and there were eight Supreme Sovereigns from each of them.
He opened his Primeval True Eye to take a look, and a strange expression appeared on his face.
He couldn't see through the depths of these people who'd rushed over. There was a mysterious power lingering around them that prevented his Primeval True Eye from prying into them.
"These people don't seem right!"
He said to the Great Elder and Yue Chenyu beside him.
"Something's not right...."
The Great Elder also felt it.
"Sealer."
Yue Chenyu's cold voice rang in their minds.
"What Sealer?"
"People who have their realms sealed and the Scar of Time. Their real age should be in their early thirties, and they're at the Greater Celestial Realm. They used a special method to seal their realms at the Middle Celestial Realm and their ages below thirty. They used this method to avoid the detection of the order of the Golden Scale Secret Realm."
"What? There's such a method? "
The Great Elder was shocked. This had never happened before. The predecessors of the Ancient Court didn't leave any records of this, which meant that no one had done this before.
Jun Wu Xie was stunned. "They can hide from the order of the Golden Scale Secret Realm?"
Yue Chenyu said, "Don't underestimate the four Supreme Sovereigns. You have to know that they're not independent forces. They have backers behind them. The ancestors of the Ancient Phoenix Sect and Ancient Golden City came from the Life Forbidden Zone. The people behind the Tian Qing Sect and Soul Hunting Hall are even more mysterious. If there's an expert guiding them, it's not impossible to hide from the order's detection. "
"But will this be useful?" Jun Wu Xie was doubtful. "Even if they can hide from the order's detection, they can only use their sealed strength in the Golden Scale Secret Realm. They've spent so much effort. It shouldn't be as simple as entering the secret realm to fight for the Saint Source. Otherwise, wouldn't it be easier to get the young Paragons of their sects to come? "
"Perhaps … once they enter the Golden Scale Secret Realm, the order won't bother about the realms of those who enter. As for the age, they'll always seal it so that they won't give themselves away. "
The Great Elder analyzed this way. In the process of obtaining the Saint Source in the Golden Scale Secret Realm, the participants' realms wouldn't be the same. There would be changes and breakthroughs.
"Heh, the four Supreme Sovereigns are actually using this method."
Jun Wu Xie laughed coldly. These forces had really put in a lot of effort.
The Great Elder said, "It should be because of you. Otherwise, there's no need for them to do this. The other forces can't compete with their young Paragons. As for the two Life Forbidden Zones, as long as they don't provoke them, they won't purposely target them. Therefore, the purpose of this arrangement is obvious. They're targeting you! "
"Targeting me? I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint them. "
"Wu Xie, you can't underestimate your opponents. According to Yue Chenyu, these Sealers are in their early thirties. This means that they're all Paragons of the same generation who were sealed in the last era. They're not those Greater Celestial Masters that you've killed before! "
"That's true."
Jun Wu Xie nodded and didn't deny it. He knew this very well.
However, he had his own trump cards. No matter what tricks these people had up their sleeves, if they wanted to kill him in the Golden Scale Secret Realm, they would be dreaming.
At this moment, the light beams that shot from the palace on the mountain peak to the various stone platforms gradually descended from the sky and turned from a parabolic trajectory to a perfectly straight trajectory.
Dense runes on the palace surged towards the light beams, causing the light beams to gradually transform into bridges.
In just a few moments, bridges were built one after another, connecting every high platform to the palace.
The doors of the ancient palace were still tightly shut and didn't show any signs of opening.
However, the runes on the light bridges that connected the platforms to the palaces gathered and gradually intertwined to form an oval-shaped Void Door.
The light bridges on each platform were connected to different Void Doors.
"The Golden Scale Secret Realm is finally opening. According to the previous eras, the Void Door will be completely stabilized tomorrow. Then, all of you can enter."
The Great Elder said.
"Why doesn't the Golden Scale Secret Realm open the doors directly? Why do they use this method to open different Void Doors? Could it be that different Void Doors correspond to different areas inside? "
"That's right. In the previous eras, the Secret Realm opened in the same way. Those who entered would be led to different locations inside. With that location as the starting point, they would gradually challenge the checkpoints set by the Order Manager of the Secret Realm. After passing the checkpoints, they could continue along the path set by the Order Manager. In the end, everyone would meet at the same location to fight for the final opportunity."
Jun Wu Xie pondered after hearing that. He then looked at Xu Yanning and the other geniuses and said, "It's best that all of you return to the platforms of your respective sects and pass the Secret Realm's Order Test with the other geniuses. Otherwise, with their abilities, they might not be able to go far. If all of you enter the same door as me, you might be implicated by those who want to target me. "
"I'll listen to Young Master Jun."
Xu Yanning smiled sweetly at him.
"Yes, King God!"
The other geniuses had no objections. To them, the King God's words were the law. After all, their sects were now attached to the Dynasty.
In fact, they had already surpassed the level of ordinary geniuses and stepped into the level of young paragons.
The Legendary realm was the symbol of a young paragons.
These people had received many opportunities from Jun Wu Xie. They were already outstanding and had now stepped into the Legendary realm.
However, they were still at the beginning of the Legendary realm.
This time, they had come to the Golden Scale Secret Realm to reach a higher level.
"Remember, don't fight with those young Paragons. Only obtain Saint Sources within the limits of your power. Otherwise, all of you will die in the Golden Scale Secret Realm. Only by living will you have a future. If you die, everything will vanish. "
Jun Wu Xie reminded them. These young paragons were his fanatical admirers and had expressed their desire to follow him many times.
Their sects had long moved to the Immortal Slaying Dynasty and were now under the rule of the Dynasty.
In the future, he planned to arrange for them to serve in the Black Armored Army to deal with the future flood of the apocalypse.
"We obey the King God's decree!"
The young paragons bowed and cupped their fists, their voices orderly.
"Alright, you don't have to do this outside the Dynasty in the future. We're friends, so there's no need to be constrained by these."
The young paragons bowed their heads and said in unison, "Yes! We obey the King God's decree! "
Jun Wu Xie was speechless.
He was speechless and speechless. He had just finished speaking, but they still obeyed the decree.
"Yue Chenyu!"
At this moment, a cold voice sounded above the high platform in the distance, "You despicable traitor, how dare you appear in front of us so brazenly!"
Yue Chenyu heard the voice and looked over, her cold eyes calm as usual.
She looked at the middle-aged man who descended from the sky and landed on the Soul Hunting Hall's high platform. He was covered in a black robe and only half of his pale face could be seen. She said calmly, "Soul Hunting Hall Master, how have you been?"
Jun Wu Xie's pupils contracted and fixed his gaze on the black-robed middle-aged man.
It was actually the Soul Hunting Hall Master?
The Soul Hunting Hall Master was a figure at the peak of power. He did not expect him to come here personally.
Thinking of the grudges between him and the Soul Hunting Hall since the Ancient Divine World, he suddenly had the urge to rush up and kill him.
A cold light flashed in his eyes and he suppressed the impulse in his heart.
