Chapter 400
Only three days are left before the opening of the Secret Realm . All the visitors who came from different high and medium-Realms headed East . Arthur and Lucy also departed, they didn’t tag along with Shu Ru or Jian Si, who went with their respective sects .
They used the red Spirit Boat, the one they got in the Underworld . Its speed was not bad and since they left a while ago, they arrived in six days, more or less .
The Secret Realm opening is situated at the far East of Green-Leaf . The couple saw a sea that stretched as far as the eye could see . Though it a sea, it was actually called the dragon’s river . When the time comes, a portal will appear, allowing everyone to enter the dragon’s secret Realm . However, the dragon’s lair is fraught with danger and peril .
It has countless priceless treasures, whether it’s medicinal herbs, artifacts or ancient minerals . The goal of those rogue or weak cultivators is to acquire a decent treasure . Only those from High-Realms or powerful backgrounds are here to get their hands on things much more heaven-defying .
As for Arthur and Lucy, they were seeking an archaic artifact that can protect souls . Losha already informed her disciple of the location of the artifact, all they have to do is go and get it . Honestly, Arthur doesn’t know what to do after acquiring that artifact, do they leave? Or wait for something to happen?
Many cultivators were camping on the shore of the river . They were divided into numerous groups, either belonging to a faction, or they’re just allying together to make things easier for them once they enter .
There are some notable people that grabbed much more attention than others, particularly the silver-haired woman that strongly resembled Lucy . Though she was only accompanied by the scarred old man, who seemed like a butler, none dared to approach her or even greet her .
It’s either they’re afraid of her or she doesn’t have any friends, though Arthur was sure of the latter guess . The woman was most likely Lucy’s sister and knowing his wife’s behavior, it’s not a surprise that her sister doesn’t have any friends .
The woman was indifferent and didn’t even spare a glance at the others . She just sat cross-legged and silently meditated . The butler, however, would look around every now and then, causing the talking crowds to stiffen and turn their head away .
One more group was a pink-haired girl, a grey-robbed young man, and the red-haired youth, who recently took the position of the Patriarch in the Five Phoenix Kingdom . Despite his weak cultivation, he still managed to acquire that position .
Moreover, Arthur noticed the youngster’s sudden increase in cultivation . Rel Huo, known as the Flame Crown Prince, was now a Fusion Sovereign .
’His sect must’ve used quite a lot of treasures to raise his cultivation so fast... it’s a shame . ’
Arthur wasn’t going to spare the young man, knowing that his father dared to attack him like that . Furthermore, from the way this kid acted when his father died, it was certain that he harbored malice towards him .
Arthur won’t risk getting exposed just to kill Rel, however, it shouldn’t be hard to sneak-attack him, especially with how chaotic the Secret Realm is .
From within a clustered crowd of weak cultivators, Arthur, who was possessing an innocent little boy, gazed at the pink-haired girl then at Artid, the young man next to her .

Arthur’s eye shone with blue luster as the notification window suddenly changed from blue to red . The information drastically changed too .
Artid (Race: Human) : Half Over God (Celestial Body : 36%)
Age : 25
Emotion : Curious(Arthur MoonStar)
Skills : Magic Staff Mastery (Lv Max) / Assassination (Lv Max)
Title : Unbeatable / Executor
Short Description : He has no affiliation with any sect . Top executive of Black Rose, one of the 9 seats, the green seat of Justice .
’Is that so . ’
Arthur smirked as he read Artid’s information . He did indeed tell Krauk that he will come up with an answer after two months but he never thought that a top executive will come for him . He didn’t seem to be harboring any bad intentions .
If he’s really that strong then he’ll probably find him on his own, there’s no need to expose himself . Even such a well-disguised person was seeing thanks to [Eyes of Tranquility] . What’s surprising is that Artid never changed his appearance, this brought a shock to Arthur .
’I’d say it’s a clever move . No one would expect him to go around with his appearance so they won’t believe it’s his real face . ’
Claud commented as he also saw the results of the appraisal .
’Anyway, enemy or foe, be careful of him . Although it’s only 36%, he must be really strong . ’
’It matters not, we’ll all be equal once we enter . ’
Just as he said that, Arthur’s could hear Claud’s harsh retort
’What bullshit are you saying? You think an Overgod, even if weakened to a God, won’t be able to beat a God? Only their cultivation is weakened, their techniques or skills are still as strong . ’
’I am aware of that . ’
Arthur decided not to argue with Claud, he just uttered those words and ignored the angry Claud .
Lucy spotted many familiar people like Emily and her brother . Jian Si and Shu Ru were also present . Her gaze suddenly halted on a figure that was alone yet no one bothered him .
His face was covered as he was covered in bandages from head to toe, his appearance was creepy and only his two pupils could be seen from within all those bandages .
The reason for her momentary surprise is this man . It was the exact same person that appeared in the tournament East of Astria, when everything went south at the end . There’s no doubt that it’s him, the appearance, aura and eccentric behavior .
She nudged Arthur and used Telekinesis to convey her thoughts . Arthur appraised the target only to see surprising results
Unnamed (Race: Ghost): Realm : 3 Star God Monarch
Age : ???
Emotion : Indifferent
Short Description : One of the three top disciples of the Ghost Nation . A silent ghost that is famous in most of the High Realms for going around and hunting treasures . Despite his unwillingness, he had been tasked to come here and search for a person .
It was actually a Ghost and a God Monarch at that! What’s confusing is that this ghost wasn’t this strong when he came to Astria .
’It’s probably due to a restriction put on Astria . Remember when Lissandra came and destroyed the Ma Clan? She was at most at the Divine Realm . All outsiders will be severely weakened when they force their way to Astria . ’
Claud explained the reason for the ghost’s past weakness .
Actually God Monarchs aren’t divided like Sovereigns but with how many stars they have . Once a person reaches the God Monarch, they’ll start conjuring stars using their Nether Energy . The more stars appear around the Dantian, the stronger they will become .
Six stars is considered the Peak of God Monarch but if one conjures more, then their future growth and strength will be limitless . There are even some who conjured nine stars .
...
Another commotion broke out once a large group that road on a large white boat appeared from the horizon . There were more than forty people with a beautiful one in a revealing white robe leading them .
It was the Deacon that was blocked from entering the Imperial Capital . Once they arrived, they picked an empty spot and patiently waited, however, the woman angrily glared toward a dark-haired middle-aged man .
This man was none other than Wrath, who was accompanying the princess, Isadore’s little sister . Emily was also next to the princess, she was as lively as ever .
The princess, however, was very calm as she sat next to Emily and happily chatted with her . Arthur didn’t dare appraise her as Wrath was next to her and there’s a strong chance that he’ll be discovered, or so warned Claud .
Though Appraisal isn’t easily noticed, those who have very high sensitivity will immediately notice it . This was also the reason he didn’t appraise Lucy’s sister or the butler .
Wrath flicked his middle-finger to the deacon, who became even more incensed . The Holy Dominion had many believers in the mortal worlds but its reputation isn’t that good .
