724 The Sun and Moon Secret Realms
Ace’s true purpose in attending this trial was to get into the secret realm of the Union and have an advantage that could help him achieve his mission. This all could only happen with the Chosen One status.
Although he didn’t get that status, he clearly got the advantage he was looking for, and now all was left for him to move toward his goal.
“The Sun and Moon Realms are the Holy Lands left behind by the Sun and Moon Gods for the Chosen One.
“The Sun Realm is extremely hot and filled with Yang Qi while the Moon Ream is icy because of Yin Qi.
“Both realms are divided into three layers, the Upper, Middle, and Lower layers, and each layer has three levels.
“Each layer holds unique trails created by the Sun and Moon Gods for the Children of Sun and Moon, and they contained unimaginable rewards to the higher layer trial one passed. To go into the deeper layer, one needed to pass all the trials on the previous layer, which is nigh impossible for the Children of the Sun and Moon because of the limitation of the cultivation realm.
“This was done because the Middle and Upper layers of both realms were specifically made for the contenders for the Chosen One seat. If someone can cross all the lower layer trails and enter the middle layer, they can directly become the Sun and Moon Seeker like you.
“However, since you already are the Sun and Moon Seeker, you can gain access to all the trials of the Lower Layer and even directly enter the third level and try the entrance trial for the Middle Layer.
“Anyone with the status of the Sun and Moon Seeker would have special rewards prepared for them in each layer.
“Furthermore, the environments of each layer would have a special effect on the cultivator of the Yin Yang Mortal Sword Manual. Just your cultivation speed will be ten times faster and continue to increase in the deeper layers.
“So, you could now understand what one year in each realm means for you while the Children of the Sun and Moon will only gain 100 days and how much you could gain from both realms if you use that time correctly.
“Furthermore, your biggest advantage over anyone is you have no cultivation or age restriction as long as your Sun and Moon Seeker status is valid, and you can enter any time you want into those realms with your Sun and Moon Seeker Token as long as you have time in your token just like now.
“You can gain more time by completing the Mid Tower Trials as well or by stepping into the Middle Layer, which is a kind of achievement since someone in your realm has never done it.
“If you can pass the Middle Layer and step into Upper Layer, then you don’t need to clear the Mid Tower Trials as well, and your status will reevaluate again. As for the final layer, if you can cross it, then you will be only a step away from being the true chosen and know why the Sun and Moon Secret Realms are the blessing for the Chosen One!”

Ace’s eyes shimmered thievishly as none of the other details mattered since all he cared about was entering that place and then figuring out how to destroy it, and it wasn’t like the SMSC hadn’t dropped a hint about the core region of both realms.
“Then does this mean I can enter right now?” Ace asked without thinking twice.
In his mind, the Union Leader will be going to summon him the moment he left this place if he was aware of him passing the trials with flying colors. He wanted to avoid the Union Leader as long as he could since it was not clear yet what he was after and how it would implicate him.
But one thing was clear, the Union Leader seemed to have no power over the trials or the secret realm, but SMSC did, which was a plus for him.
He would only appear as a cultivation maniac who didn’t want to miss a chance to increase his cultivation, and this was the whole point of becoming the Jr. Union Leader in the first place.
Furthermore, as SMSC mentioned previously, he didn’t need to worry about the Union Leader anymore as long as he was in the Union, especially after his status had been re-evaluated.
“You want to go right now? Don’t you need the time to adjust to the Yin Yang Mortal Sword Manual first? You can cultivate in the Core Cultivation Chamber in the Above Mountains Palace now which even the Union Caretaker has no access.
“Don’t be hasty with this opportunity. You are still quite young, so use this time wisely and accumulate more experience before you challenge the Secret Realms. There is no need to push things unprepared.” SMSC kindly advised.
If it was someone else, they could’ve heeded this advice, but it was Ace, not someone else.
So, he showed a determined look on White’s face as he said, “Thank you for your kind intentions. But I would like to enter the Sun Secret Realm right now because I think I’ll grow there even faster than cultivating in a safe place.
“My parents teach me that opportunities are better used on the moment noticed because life is fickle. So, please allow me to enter. Even my master agreed to this arrangement when he tasked me to pass both trials.”
After a moment of silence, SMSC’s voice rang again with a hint of amusement, “Is that so? I must say you are very different from the previous two Seekers, who spent decades in preparations, yet they ended up achieving nothing.
“You have inherited Sun God’s daring, and God will be quite pleased as well. So be it. I’ll send you directly outside the fourth cloud ring of the Sun Mountain, which is the core of the Sun Mountain, and also where the Sun God created the Sun Secret Realm. More details will be in your token.
“The Sun and Moon Gods will be watching upon you. Don’t disappoint the Sun and Moon Gods, Sun and Moon Seeker White. I hope we’ll meet soon!”
Just the SMSC’s voice trailed off, and White’s figure instantly vanished from the darkness!
