Chapter 1972: 516:
The condition is that half of the harvest from the secret realm will be handed over to the Great Dream Immortal City, hoping that the Four Great Immortal Sects could open some slots for the trial secret realm to the City Lord Mansion.
Upon hearing that there are no opportunities in the secret realm, the Great Dream Immortal City is even willing to open up the secret realm to the whole Jiang Country, making the Core Formation Immortals of the Four Great Immortal Sects lose interest.
However, their own disciples having such an opportunity for tempering, they gladly agreed but indicated that they needed to report to the sects.
"Alright."
Without waiting for the response from the Four Great Immortal Sects, Ling Zixiao took several Array Masters, Fengshui Masters, and Spiritual Plant Masters, along with Lu Ping’an, to the Great Dream Marsh Secret Realm for remodeling.
After all, the secret realm concerned the Core Formation opportunity for her son, and she naturally did not want to delay too long, aiming to complete it as soon as possible.
Heavenly Sword Sect.
"The Great Dream Immortal City is willing to open such a secret realm, it seems they are willing to integrate into our Jiang Country."
"In that case, giving the Great Dream Immortal City a few slots for secret realm trials would not affect us."
The four great immortal sects of Jiang Country share the same spirit, and in such matters, the opinion of the Heavenly Sword Sect is the main consideration.The Heavenly Sword Sect nodded, and naturally, the Qingyun Sect, Luoxia Sect, and Spirit Taming Sect would not refuse.
From the perspective of the Heavenly Sword Sect Master, since the Great Dream Immortal City wishes to open the secret realm, it shows a friendly attitude, and naturally, they would not dismiss their gesture.
However, Absolute Sword True Monarch had previously advised to report anything concerning the Great Dream Immortal City to him, so they still went to report.
"From the analysis, these two people will not stay long in Jiang Country or Great Dream Immortal City. Why do they need secret realm slots?"
Absolute Sword True Monarch raised his eyebrows slightly, somewhat puzzled.
But thinking about the City Lord couple having a son, or maybe as a favor, he didn’t ask further, turning to the Heavenly Sword Sect Master: "Iron Sword, have you got any news of the Azure Phoenix True Monarch these years?"
The Liangyue war is currently at a stalemate, and he received news that further away in Yuan Country, Qiyun Country, and the Tianluo Sect war has stopped, with Qiyun Country being divided by Yuan Country and the Tianluo Sect.
And Yuan Country is preparing to maintain war through war, currently infiltrating Wu Country, very likely to intervene in the Liangyue war through Wu Country in the future.
In such circumstances, Jiang Country cannot sit idle, allowing Yuan Country to act on Yue Country or Liang Country, disrupting the balance. .
But no matter what, Jiang Country has only him and Xuanjian True Monarch as Nascent Soul cultivators, so they want to invite the once-allied Azure Phoenix True Monarch for help.
Unfortunately, after the Vast Sand Illusion Realm, Azure Phoenix True Monarch vanished without a trace, no news at all.
"Reporting to the True Monarch, there has been no news of Azure Phoenix True Monarch these years."
The Heavenly Sword Sect Master shook his head and said.
"What about Yangming True Master?"
Absolute Sword True Monarch asked again.
Based on the pioneering war and the situation in the Vast Sand Illusion Realm, it’s known that Yangming True Master and Azure Phoenix True Monarch had a close relationship.
"Since the Vast Sand Illusion Realm, there has also been no movement regarding Yangming True Master."
The Heavenly Sword Sect Master continued to shake his head.
Not only are many forces in the Northern Territory of the Southern Wilderness paying attention to Yangming True Master, but their Heavenly Sword Sect has also been watching him closely.
"Hmm."
Absolute Sword True Monarch nodded gently, his calm and profound gaze looking towards the direction of the Great Dream Immortal City, murmuring softly: "If nothing else works... I can only take a trip to the Great Dream Immortal City."
During the previous Whale Hunting Feast, he had a pleasant conversation with the Dream City Master, who expressed his willingness to offer some help to Jiang Country within his capacity.
But given the choice, he still trusts the Azure Phoenix True Monarch, whom he knows inside out as they rose step by step from Jiang Country.
However, now that there’s no news of Azure Phoenix True Monarch, if Wu Country is indeed infiltrated by Yuan Country and cooperates with Liang Country, then he can only invite the two mysterious city lords of the Great Dream Immortal City for assistance.
...
At this moment.
In the Eastern Domain of the Southern Wilderness, deep in a fiery lake of magma so scorching that it nearly burned everything.
A giant crimson cocoon, like a Phoenix Egg, lay still, adorned with exquisite and luxurious golden patterns, alternating bright and dark, seemingly like living things, breathing in and out.
Just then, a magnificent blue Luan bird broke through layers of space, carrying several fire seeds, flew into the magma lake, and piled the fire seeds beside the giant cocoon akin to a Phoenix Egg.
The golden patterns on the cocoon intertwined and spread, absorbing the Qi mechanism of the fire seeds, making the crimson luster a bit more brilliant.
Seeing this, the blue Luan bird did not linger and continued to break through the void to find more origin fire seeds for the giant cocoon.
At the same time, in a remote small village in the Middle Domain of the Southern Wilderness.
"Granny, brother hasn’t come back yet, it’s already been two years, has he forgotten about Little Que’er."
On the bumpy little road, a four or five-year-old girl with pigtails was carrying a bundle of firewood. She looked at the wrinkled and hunched old woman beside her, who was carrying a bamboo basket, and asked aloud.
The girl’s clothes were very worn and patched, but her little face was as fair as jade, and her eyes were bright and black, like a lovely porcelain doll.
"How could it be? Brother was noticed by an Immortal. When he learns Immortal Law, he will come back. By then, not only will he bring Little Que’er candied haw, and delicious snacks, but he can also fly and take Little Que’er everywhere."
The old woman, hearing this, spoke kindly, her eyes tinged with a bit of longing.
Who would have thought that an old woman with no family would adopt two infants, and the elder one would be noticed by an Immortal and taken to cultivate.
"Mm-hmm."
Little Que’er nodded obediently, her eyes full of anticipation.
"Little Que’er is so cute. When you grow up, maybe you’ll be noticed by an Immortal and taken to cultivate."
The old woman looked at the girl in front of her, who resembled a porcelain doll, and said kindly.
Compared to the elder child, she felt that the girl in front of her had more immortal presence.
Not only had she been healthy from a young age, better than ordinary children, but her skin was fair and delicate like a young lady from a wealthy family. Any bumps she got never left scars.
"Little Que’er wants to stay with Grandma and wait for Brother to come back."
Although the girl was very young, she was very sensible. Her brother used to take care of her and Grandma.
Now that Brother wasn’t there, she would take good care of Grandma.
"Little Que’er is so good."
Hearing the girl’s words, the old woman smiled broadly, stretched out her bony hand to rub her pigtails. Then, the old and the young walked back to the village, chatting and laughing.
...
Time flew by; in the blink of an eye, half a year passed.
On that day, Great Dream Immortal City suddenly released a piece of news: in half a year, the [Hidden Abyss Secret Realm] would open to the public.
All cultivators below the Core Formation Stage in Jiang Country could enter the secret realm.
Soon after the news from Great Dream Immortal City, the Four Great Immortal Sects helped to spread the word.
In no time, news about the Hidden Abyss Secret Realm spread like a whirlwind across the Jiang Country Cultivation Realm.
"Hidden Abyss Secret Realm? Isn’t this the secret realm that appeared in the Great Dream Marsh earlier? Why has it been opened to the public?"
The Hidden Abyss Secret Realm was named by Great Dream Immortal City for the Deep Sea Secret Realm of the Great Dream Marsh.
On one hand, this secret realm was hidden in the deep sea.
On the other hand, it was hoped that the Lu Family disciples, like potential dragons, would either bide their time or leap forward.
"Need there be more speculation? Surely the secret realm has been explored fully; no great opportunity was found, so now it’s opened to us to explore its conditions."
"From the introduction, this secret realm seems pretty good, somewhat like the Purple Shadow Secret Realm, possessing numerous spiritual medicines and Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, with only half the gains to be submitted."
"Wait a minute, isn’t there something wrong? Cultivators below Core Formation can enter, but even the False Core Immortal can enter."
"What!? The False Core Immortal can enter this Hidden Abyss Secret Realm!? How to play?"
"This is completely open to the big forces, isn’t it?"
However, when numerous cultivators went to understand the situation of the secret realm and saw that everyone below Core Formation could enter but False Core Immortals were not included, they were dumbfounded.
After all, no matter how it was viewed, False Core Cultivators carried the character "Dan" in their titles.
You cannot compare them to Foundation Establishment Cultivators.
Although there were many stories in the cultivation world about Foundation Establishment battling False Core, each was an extraordinary, rare existence.
"Whatever, since the secret realm doesn’t have so many restrictions, it’s worth a visit."
"Indeed, False Core Immortals are prominent figures. As long as you don’t provoke them, they probably won’t kill indiscriminately."
"Brother Lu, do you want to join me to the Great Dream Immortal City to take a look at this Hidden Abyss Secret Realm?"
"Let’s go, since the Four Great Immortal Sects helped promote it, this secret realm shouldn’t be too bad."
Even though the secret realm didn’t limit False Core Immortals, which caused many cultivators to be discouraged, many Foundation Establishment Cultivators still chose to head to the Great Dream Marsh.
After all, to ordinary Loose Cultivators, a secret realm is an opportunity!
Now that there was a freely open secret realm, even knowing that the Great Dream Immortal City and the Four Great Immortal Sects might have ulterior motives, they were still willing to go.
