Chapter 472
As countless cultivators died in the secret realm, several major sects joined hands and sealed it to stop more cultivators from entering the dangerous place and dying.
Xiao Jinting guessed that the major sects were afraid that they would lose their cultivators and then their influences, but they feared that other sects would find precious resources there, so they sealed the secret realm.
A cultivator entered and reported, “Ancestor, Senior Chen has come.”
Chen Lifeng came in and said casually to Xiao Jinting, “Long time no see.”
Xiao Jinting said, “It’s been a long time since I last saw you. When the secret realm opened, I went to see you, but you were traveling.”
Chen Lifeng nodded and said, “I found a cave abroad with a few friends, and we got trapped by the illusion array outside the cave. When I came out, I heard of the secret realm. When I planned to go there, it was sealed. What a pity.”
He went on, “However, I think I’m lucky. I heard that countless Nascent Souls died in the secret realm, and even two Deity Transformation cultivators perished there. If I had been there, I might not have come out alive. Jinting, you went there. What was there in the secret realm?”
Seeing that Chen Lifeng was curious, Xiao Jinting told him what he had seen there. Chen Lifeng was intrigued.
He said ruefully, “The secret realm formed by fragments of the Immortal World is unusual. What a pity…”
Xiao Jinting took a sip of the tea and said lightly, “Senior Chen, don’t worry. You will have the chance to go there. I don’t think the major sects will seal it for a long time. It will be opened sooner or later.”
The treasures in the secret realm were coveted. Although many people were scared by it, they would go back after they recovered from the shock.
Chen Lifeng said, “I heard that the major sects are drawing the map of the secret realm together, trying to figure the place out. Any information related to the secret realm will be paid with spiritual stones. The major sects might sell the maps once it’s finished. With the map, it will be much safer to travel in the secret realm.”
Many cultivators died in the secret realm when it was first opened because they didn’t know anything about it. Any careless step would cause their lives.
If the cultivators knew about the secret realm, they might not die.
Xiao Jinting asked, “Senior Chen, what have you come for? Not just to chat with me, right?”
Chen Lifeng shook his head and said, “I went overseas because a friend found a secret realm there. It took us several years to crack the arrays outside it. However, we have to break another array before we enter the secret realm. We were not able to do that, so I came back for help.”
Xiao Jinting asked, “Is it difficult to crack the array?”
Chen Lifeng replied, “It takes four people with strong soul force to put their soul force in the key points of the array to break it.”
Xiao Jinting was intrigued. “Four people?”
Chen Lifeng nodded and said, “Yes, apart from you, the other two have agreed to go.”
Xiao Jinting lowered his head. It took several years to crack the illusion array outside the cave, which meant it was unusual. “That cave is not simple, is it?”
Chen Lifeng said with glinting eyes, “Signs show that it might be a place for Deity Transformation Cultivators to make advancement to the Immortal World.”
Xiao Jinting said, “In that case, I’ll go.”
Chen Lifeng said happily, “Great!”
Xiao Jinting nodded and said, “It’s too tempting.”
Chen Lifeng said ruefully, “By the way, I didn’t see Xiaodong when I came. I contacted Xu and found that they went out for an adventure.”
Xiao Jinting nodded and said, “They are young, and they need to get more experience.”
Xiao Jinting rubbed his fingers. Xiao Xiaodong had advanced to Nascent Soul. Although his aptitude was not the best, he was unusually smart. After he made his advancement, his pheasant advanced to Nascent Soul as well. It was said to be a dragon now.
Chen Lifeng lowered his head, looking worried.
Xiao Jinting looked at him and asked, “Senior Chen, are you worried about Xu?”
Chen Lifeng said, “With Mr. Xu and Mr. Li protecting them, I’m not worried.” Although he didn’t admit it, he looked worried.
Xiao Jinting said, “Senior Chen, let’s discuss the secret realm.”
Chen Lifeng nodded. “Okay.”
