In the grade-two secret realm of the upper realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm.
“Brother Ling Tian, where are we going?”
After leaving the hall, a vast and seemingly boundless world appeared in front of Duan Ling Tian and Huan’er. It was as though they had entered a whole new world. When they turned back, the hall had disappeared.
“Let’s just explore this place,” Duan Ling Tian said with a smile, “Huan’er, we can go wherever you want.”
The grade-two secret realm was filled with fortuitous encounters, Celestial Weapons, Celestial Pills, Celestial Fruits, and Celestial Talismans. However, Duan Ling Tian was only interested in Celestial Pills and Celestial Fruits that could swiftly raise their cultivation bases since their breakthroughs would become slower now that they had become Celestial Kings. These treasures were as rare as unicorns and phoenixes in the Southern Heaven Territory, but there were quite many of them in the secret realms.
Duan Ling Tian was able to break through and become a Three Talents Celestial King in 30 years due to such Celestial Fruits. The Celestial Fruits, which he shared equally with Huan’er, had been given to him by the Pavilion Master of the Imperial Tutor Pavilion. Even if he did not share the Celestial Fruits with Huan’er, he would still be a Three Talents Celestial King because the gap between a Three Talents Celestial King and a Four Phenomenon Celestial King was like a chasm.
“Brother Ling Tian, let’s go this way then,” Huan’er said to Duan Ling Tian after she briefly glanced to her right.
“Alright.” Duan Ling Tian brought Huan’er with him as he moved. At the same time, he extended his Divine Consciousness to scan the land for treasures and fortuitous encounters.
Although the grade-two secret realm contained treasures that were not inferior to those in the grade-one secret realms, the tests one had to pass to obtain them were much more dangerous and life-threatening. Needless to say, the more precious the treasures, the deadlier the tests would be. For example, the Formation that protected purely defensive Royal Grade Celestial Weapons could manifest powerful spirits. Although these spirits’ strength was only that of a Ten Directions Celestial King, the laws they comprehended were powerful. Therefore, the spirits were not any weaker than those who ranked in the top ten. Most people would join forces when they came across such Formations.
“Similar to the upper realm, one can also crush one’s Identity Jade token to escape from the dangers in the secret realms...” Duan Ling Tian had learned this from the Pavilion Master of the Imperial Tutor Pavilion previously. However, once the Identity Jade Token was crushed, one would no longer be able to enter the secret realm again.
After traveling for two hours...
“Brother Ling Tian, there’s a commotion up ahead,” Huan’er said as she pointed to the volcano in front of them.
At this moment, the duo was crossing a desert. Far ahead, there was an active volcano that was constantly spewing lava high up in the sky.
Although Duan Ling Tian did not hear any commotion, he brought Huan’er to the direction that she had pointed out. It was only when they drew closer that he finally heard the commotion that Huan’er had spoken about earlier.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
As a thunderous explosion rang in the air, Duan Ling Tian saw a few figures on top of the volcano. Apart from that, he saw a gigantic humanoid figure as well. His eyes lit up immediately when he recalled the words of the Pavilion Master of the Imperial Tutor Pavilion. “In the secret realms, the more difficult the tests, the more precious the treasures would be. The treasures in the secret realms are so precious that even the Ten Major Clans and the Top Five Sects covet them... Based on the strength of this Formation spirit, it seems like it’s protecting a rather extraordinary treasure...”
Duan Ling Tian could tell the gigantic Formation spirit formed from lava and rocks was rather powerful. It seemed evenly matched with the few figures who were currently fighting it.
“Huan’er, let’s go.” Duan Ling Tian held Huan’er’s hand and teleported about 10,000 meters ahead. With this, he depleted one-third of his Celestial Origin Energy. A wry smile appeared on his face as he thought to himself, ‘It’s still difficult for me to cast the Teleportation Profundity at the initial stage with my current Celestial Origin Energy.’
Since Duan Ling Tian had comprehended the Teleportation Profundity to the initial stage, he could teleport within the distance of 1,000 meters each time. However, each time, it would deplete much of his Celestial Origin Energy. The amount of Celestial Origin Energy it consumed was nothing to Celestial Lords, but it took a heavy toll on Celestial Kings. For example, Duan Ling Tian, a Three Talents Celestial King, would deplete one-third of his Celestial Origin Energy when he used the Teleportation Profundity ten times to travel 10,00 meters ahead. However, if he had only used it to travel 100 meters or 1,000 meters ahead, it, naturally, would not consume so much Celestial Origin Energy.
In no time at all, Duan Ling Tian and Huan’er finally appeared above the volcano. They could clearly see the three people fiercely fighting the gigantic humanoid figure that was made from magma and rocks. The rocks that formed the humanoid figure were clearly scorching hot.
Soon after, Duan Ling Tian shifted his gaze to the three people above the volcano. They were a middle-aged man and two young men. He had seen them earlier when they had just entered the grade-two secret realm.
Whoosh!
At this moment, the gigantic humanoid figure swung its fist that was the size of a mountain as Celestial Origin Energy that was boosted by the Fire Elemental Profundity surged from its body. After that, it cast other profundities from the law of fire. Some of them had even been comprehended to the initial stage.
“The Explosion Profundity and Burning Profundity are at the initial stage!” Previously, before comprehending the law of space, Duan Ling Tian had comprehended the law of fire. Therefore, he could tell in just an instant how powerful the profundities from the law of fire were. Moreover, he could clearly tell the gigantic humanoid figure was much stronger than the nine people he and Huan’er had killed earlier. Although there were some among the nine people who had comprehended two profundities to the initial stage, the profundities were not particularly powerful. On the other hand, the Explosion Profundity and Burning Profundity were the main offensive profundities of the law of fire. Comprehending these two profundities would boost one’s strength tremendously.
Bang!
As the gigantic fist was about to land on the weakest among the trio, the man hastily brought his Identity Jade Token out and crushed it before he vanished into thin air at the critical moment.
The gigantic figure’s fist ended up landing on the volcano, causing it to erupt violently. At the same time, the land in the surroundings began to shake and tremble.
“Retreat!”
The remaining two men’s expressions drastically changed as they quickly moved away. As soon as they retreated, the gigantic figure seemed to calm down and gradually disappeared into the spewing hot lava. Both men looked at the bottom of the soaring flames and lava unwillingly.
“The treasure is hidden at the bottom?” Duan Ling Tian brought Huan’er with him as he moved closer to get a better view. Soon enough, he saw a plant in the middle of the flames at the foot of the volcano. However, the plant was not affected by the flames at all. There were five bright red fruits growing on the plant. On the surface of the bright red fruits, three fine green stripes could be seen. These were clearly Celestial Fruits.
Duan Ling Tian exclaimed inwardly as his eyes brightened, ‘Are those the Flaming Green Striped Fruits? Moreover, there are five of them! With my cultivation base, I only need two to quickly break through and become a Four Phenomenon Celestial King...’
The Flaming Green Striped Fruits was a Celestial Fruit that could raise the cultivation bases of Celestial Kings. A One Basic Celestial King could quickly become a Two Forms Celestial King after consuming two fruits. Naturally, the higher the cultivation base of a Celestial King, the lesser the effect of the fruits would be. For example, a Nine Palaces Celestial King would not be able to break through and become a Ten Directions Celestial King even if he consumed five or ten Flaming Green Striped Fruits even if there was no limit to the number of fruits one could consume and the efficacy would not diminish.
“The Flaming Green Striped Fruits!” Huan’er recognized the fruits as well from her inherited memories as a Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox.
“I can’t believe there are five Flaming Green Striped Fruits!” Duan Ling Tian said excitedly. Although he received many resources from the Profound Nether Mansion, none could compare to the Flaming Green Striped Fruits. The Flaming Green Striped Fruit was a rare and valuable Celestial Fruit that even the Ten Major Clans and Top Five Sect might not have, let alone the Profound Nether Mansion.
At this moment, the two men who were previously fighting the gigantic humanoid figure finally discovered Duan Ling Tian and Huan’er’s presence. Their eyes lit up as they flew toward the duo.
“Greetings, my friends. Why don’t we work together to obtain the Flaming Green Striped Fruits?”
“I’m not interested,” Duan Ling Tian said as he glanced at the two men, “Why don’t both of you leave this place or crush your Identity Jade Tokens? I’ll give you five breaths to consider this... Don’t say I didn’t warn you...”
