My Nascent Soul Ran Away Again

Chapter 21

A gentle white light illuminated the place.

Lu Xuan and the other three appeared.

The other end of the teleportation array was set up at the edge of a small forest.

On the west side of the small forest was a large lake. It was quite vast and the surface of the lake was very calm.

The Divine Weapon Pavilion occupied this secluded domain of heaven and earth, but they did not develop it on their own. Instead, they charged a fee.

Cultivators could only enter after paying spirit stones.

The artifacts obtained in the secret realm would be split 50-50 with the Divine Weapon Pavilion. If there were inheritances or precious artifacts that could not be shared, the sect that the genius who obtained the inheritance belonged to would negotiate with the Divine Weapon Pavilion to conduct a transaction.

In front of the lake, there was a special place for registration.

On it was the sign of the Secret Mystical Realm.

Half a month ago, a mighty figure of the Divine Weapon Pavilion dug out a tablet from the entrance of the mystical realm. There were words written on it, and this mystical realm was the land of inheritance left behind by a senior named Huan Zhen.

The location was right below the lake.

However, the Divine Weapon Pavilion didn’t know who Senior Huan Zhen was.

Judging from the age of the mystical realm’s formation, it should belong to the Ancient Era.

The Illusion Lake was huge, so huge that one couldn’t see the end of it.

Only the teleportation array had a registration point.

The geniuses of the various sects who came to participate in the trial in the mystical realm were all prominent figures, so they naturally wouldn’t evade fares.

At the same time, considering that commoner players were also part of the gaming experience of the pay-to-win players, the Divine Weapon Pavilion would not stop any secret practitioners from sneaking into the Secret Mystical Realm from remote corners.

This was called 50 Great Dao, leaving one out to give the rogue cultivators a chance.

“Fellow Daoists, are you interested in buying Death Substitution Talismans? Each person is limited to one,” the cultivator in charge of registration asked.

Normal Death Substitution Talismans could only block fatal damage once. If they met someone with a huge difference in strength, they would be killed repeatedly after resurrection.

This place was guarded by a mighty figure from the Divine Weapon Pavilion. Those who died after purchasing the Death Substitution Talisman for the secret realm could be directly fished out by the mighty figure to prevent them from being killed.

In the true sense of the word, they would have an extra life.

Zhang Xun and Liang Xia both bought it. This thing was as expensive as the entrance fare to the Secret Mystical Realm, but their expenses to enter the realm were all covered by the sect.

Cheng Lingzhu didn’t buy it. As a disciple of the Dushi Sword House, she should be able to clear the stage with her life.

If she didn’t even have the confidence to suppress Heaven’s Favored, she might as well just end her worldly training and return to the sect to dream.

Of course, Lu Xuan didn’t buy it either. He had no use for it.

Many cultivators had already gathered around the lake. They were all participants in the mystical realm trial.

In the past few hundred years, it had become popular for large sects to wear green robes. Lu Xuan looked around and saw that all the Heaven’s Favored were green but in different tones.

Beside them, tall exotic beasts neighed, all of which were quite handsome.

Exotic beasts needed to awaken their intelligence, and their cultivation was usually slower than humans. However, some with powerful bloodlines lived longer than humans.

Some mutated beasts that were raised well could support their masters in their old age.

Of course, it was not suitable for Lu Xuan.

Dong, dong, dong…

The bell rang from the side of the Illusion Lake.

On the surface of the lake, a strange light shone, as if some kind of intense change was happening.

The elites of the various sects knew that this was a sign that the Secret Mystical Realm was about to open. They scattered and found a position by the lake.

When the light on the surface of the lake calmed down, the bell rang again.

The spatial passageway had already stabilized and they could enter.

The Secret Mystical Realm had a cultivation limit. Only those below the Nascent Soul stage could enter. This meant that Golden Core cultivators were given preferential treatment. This was the consensus of the Archean Eon World’s mighty figures.

Golden Core was the most suitable stage to receive the inheritance.

However, when the bell rang, no one moved.

“Cultivators of our generation are brave and fierce. It is difficult to achieve the Great Dao if we are cowardly!”

A gray-robed elder’s eyes gleamed as he kicked his disciple down.

“This senior is an influential figure from the powerful divination sect, the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets. He should have divined some things just now… The first to enter the mystical realm might be able to obtain the blessing of the realm’s luck!”

A cultivator narrowed his eyes and recognized this person.

“I heard that the cultivators of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets don’t often interact with others, and the experts of the sect are in seclusion all year round. Brother, you’re quite knowledgeable to be able to actually recognize this person,” a cultivator at the side asked in surprise.

“I’m Lu Renjia from the Hundred Knowledge Sect. Our Hundred Knowledge Sect’s main focus is to be well-informed and know everything… Senior Brother, if you want to fight with someone, you can contact me if you need an explanation. The first order on the 15th of every month will get 20% off.”

“So, you’re a professional. Sorry for being disrespectful…”

With the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets cultivators leading the way, the rest of the geniuses began to jump down one by one. Like dumplings, their figures disappeared into the light.

Of course, there were also cultivators who pondered that the opportunity definitely had nothing to do with the order of entry. They might as well let others explore the path first and enter last.

Lu Xuan didn’t mind. Since he was already here, he definitely had to go down and take a look.

He turned his head and saw Zhang Xun and Liang Xia from Sancai Academy flirting with each other.

Liang Xia closed her eyes and opened her arms. Zhang Xun hugged her from behind.

One said, “I’m going to jump”, and the other said, “If you jump, I’ll jump too”.

Lu Xuan thought to himself, ‘What, is this the Titanic?’ He turned around and pointed at Cheng Lingzhu. This was how Dao partners were.

The two of them looked at each other and took a step forward at the same time, jumping into the light.

…

Inside the Secret Mystical Realm.

“Senior Huan Zhen was very powerful when he was alive.”

Lu Xuan descended from the sky and sensed the surrounding Laws of Heaven and Earth. He was a little surprised.

The Secret Mystical Realm was left behind by an Almighty Gu after he passed away. The Laws of Heaven and Earth in the mystical realm evolved from the Dao Law in his body.

In Lu Xuan’s eyes, the power of the Laws of Heaven and Earth in the True Illusion Secret Realm was even stronger than many higher beings’ tombs.

He was very experienced in this aspect.

Right at this moment, a cry of surprise entered his ears.

Lu Xuan looked up and saw Cheng Lingzhu falling from the sky.

He stretched out his arm and caught her horizontally. After turning her around half a circle, he placed her vertically on the ground.

“Thank… Thank you, Senior Brother Lu.”

Cheng Lingzhu’s face was pale as she steadied her breathing. She did not expect to fall from the sky after crossing the lake.

More importantly, flying was forbidden here!

Cheng Lingzhu, who had instinctively wanted to use her Qi to lighten her body, realized that she couldn’t stop her body from falling, and her hands and feet flailed in a mess.

“Is this your first time entering the mystical realm?” Lu Xuan asked.

Cheng Lingzhu nodded vigorously.

“Many mystical realms have a no-fly zone. It’s a test for the cultivator. If the cultivator is unlucky, the teleportation point will directly open in the no-fly zone… I forgot to remind you,” Lu Xuan said.

Because he had entered too many secret realms, Lu Xuan thought that [Beware of the no-fly zone] was common knowledge and everyone should know about it.

Therefore, he subconsciously ignored it.

Now that he thought about it, there should be many people who had encountered the same situation as Cheng Lingzhu.

With the physique of a Golden Core cultivator, there was no need to worry about falling from the sky.

However, if he touched the ground with his face, he would definitely be in a sorry state.

The two of them were now in an empty forest. The surroundings were filled with lush ancient trees that towered into the sky, brimming with vitality.

At this moment, a commotion suddenly came from the small forest in the distance.
