Cultivation starts from simplifying the exercises

Chapter 1942 It’s scary to think about it carefully

Within the Fire Spirit Secret Realm, the chaotic energy was slowly calming down, but the essence of the entire secret realm had already stabilized, exuding a majestic and profound aura unique to a lower-grade fifteenth-tier plane.

Chen Fei hovered in the core void of the secret realm, his body exuding the aura of a newly broken-through, still needing to be consolidated, yet already as deep as the sea—the pressure of the early stage of the Dominator Realm.

Chen Fei's gaze was calm. Through layers of spatial barriers, he clearly sensed that outside the secret realm, the originally tense and murderous aura of the extraterrestrial demon overlord had receded like the tide after a brief period of deathly silence and extremely suppressed anger.

Immediately afterwards, streaks of demonic light tore through the void and sped towards the deepest part of the Xuan Yu Realm, the area with the densest demonic energy, without looking back. In the blink of an eye, they disappeared without a trace.

gone?

A genuine look of surprise flashed across Chen Fei's eyes. He had thought that by snatching food from the tiger's mouth, these extraterrestrial demons would be enraged and might even rush in to fight him to the death at the early stage of the Sovereign Realm.

Chen Fei had already made preparations for this. Although the power of the newly promoted ruler was not yet fully mature, he was confident that he could contend with any early-stage ruler in the special environment of the secret realm, thanks to his profound and heaven-defying foundation.

Yet these Heavenly Demon Lords were so decisive? And so cautious?
However, after a moment's thought, Chen Fei understood the key point: this place was not only inhabited by extraterrestrial demons, but also surrounded by cultivators and powerful sovereigns from the Yuan Demon faction.

If these early-stage Heavenly Demon Sovereigns dared to force their way into the secret realm, not to mention whether they could capture Chen Fei in a short time, the cultivators and Yuan Demon Sovereigns outside the secret realm who were eyeing them covetously would definitely not sit idly by and would surely take the opportunity to make a move.

Moreover, Chen Fei rose from humble beginnings, sweeping across the Xuan Ranking and Di Ranking, creating countless miracles. His actions were full of hidden tricks, which made him seem unpredictable to these Heavenly Demon Lords.

Furthermore, given that he dared to break through here, the Tianxuan Sect must have had a backup plan.

A combination of factors forced these demon rulers to suppress their overwhelming rage and killing intent, choosing instead the most rational, yet also the most frustrating, option: retreat.

They relayed the message back, presenting the problem to the supreme leader of the Heavenly Ranking, the Destroyer.

"They're quite patient."

A barely perceptible smile appeared on Chen Fei's lips, but his vigilance remained undiminished.

The Heavenly Demon retreated not out of fear, but as a choice made after weighing the pros and cons. The Destroyer's revenge will not stop there; it will only become more brutal and harder to defend against.

Beyond the secret realm, in the void.

The cultivators and the powerful cultivators of the Yuan Demon side breathed a slight sigh of relief as they watched the Heavenly Demon camp flee and disappear swiftly without any hesitation. However, they did not intervene or pursue them.

The various forces have been locked in a stalemate for a long time. The reason they have been able to maintain a delicate balance is precisely because their strengths are not too different and they are wary of each other.

Now, demonic energy permeates most of the Xuanyu Realm. The extraterrestrial demons occupy the advantageous terrain and their methods are unpredictable and bizarre. If we rashly pursue them, we are likely to fall into their traps and suffer heavy losses, which would be a net loss.

Being able to force back the Heavenly Demon and protect Chen Fei, the newly appointed ruler, is already the best possible outcome.

After a short silence.

All eyes turned once again to the figure within the secret realm, radiating the aura of a newly born ruler. The gazes were filled with complex and unfathomable meanings, but they quickly transformed into purer congratulations.

"Congratulations, Elder Chen, on breaking through to the Sovereign Realm!"

"Congratulations, Elder Chen! You have achieved the Great Dao and will be indestructible through countless eons!"

"Congratulations!"

A chorus of congratulatory voices, some loud, some low, some clear, surged through the barrier of the secret realm and reached Chen Fei's ears like a tide.

No matter how shocked or incredulous he felt, Chen Fei's breakthrough to the Dominator realm was now a fact.

The birth of a new ruler is, in a sense, a joyous occasion and a powerful boost for the Xuanyu Realm, which is currently struggling to resist the demonic tide.

Furthermore, since there is no past grudge between the two parties, it is only natural to offer congratulations and establish a good relationship at this time.

"You're welcome."

Chen Fei's divine sense resonated clearly outside the secret realm, reaching the ears of every Sovereign Realm expert.

However, Chen Fei remained motionless, standing steadily in the core void of the secret realm, showing no intention of leaving the secret realm immediately.

Upon seeing this, the sovereigns outside the city shifted their gazes slightly, instantly understanding the situation, and their eyes involuntarily turned towards the direction where the three elders of the Tianxuan Sect, Ruan Hantao, were located.

Although Chen Fei has broken through to the Dominator realm, his realm is not yet stable and his cultivation techniques are not yet mastered. If he were to leave the secret realm rashly at this moment, and the Heavenly Demon were to return, or if other unscrupulous individuals were to launch a sneak attack, the risk would be extremely high.

Staying within the secret realm, protected by the barrier of the newly formed fifteenth-tier lower-grade plane, is actually the safest option.

After all, at this moment, the most people who can enter the secret realm are at the early stage of the Sovereign Realm. With the heaven-defying combat power that Chen Fei has shown on the Earth Ranking, even if he has just entered the Sovereign Realm, he should have no problem protecting himself.

He was clearly waiting, waiting for a stronger response from the Tianxuan Sect.

The only question is, which powerful figure will the Heavenly Profound Sect send? Will it be a senior elder? Or…?

The thought was still swirling in the minds of the powerful beings at the Sovereign Realm when suddenly, a gentle breeze-like aura silently descended upon this void.

There was no explosive sound of space being torn apart, no surging tide of energy; it was as if he was meant to be there all along.

He wore a simple gray robe, had a thin face, and eyes as deep as the vast starry sky.

Second on the Heavenly Ranking, the pillar of the Xuan Yu Realm's cultivator camp, Venerable Tian Xuan!
In an instant, the whole place was dead silent.

All the powerful beings at the Sovereign Realm, whether cultivators or demons, had their pupils shrink slightly, and their faces couldn't help but show astonishment and disbelief.

It was actually this person who came in person?
Isn't Chen Fei's treatment a bit too high?

What is the identity of Venerable Tianxuan? He has been in charge of the Tianxuan Sect for hundreds of millions of years. He is usually elusive and rarely seen. Even those of us at the Sovereign Realm rarely get to see him.

Now, he has actually descended personally to receive a newly promoted ruler?

Chen Fei's position in Venerable Tianxuan's heart is so important!
"Greetings, Venerable Tianxuan."

"Meet His Holiness."

Without anyone reminding them, all the Sovereign Realm experts present, regardless of their faction, immediately concealed their auras, their expressions solemn, and bowed respectfully to the gray-robed figure. This was the respect and courtesy due to the strongest being of the Xuan Yu Realm.

Venerable Tianxuan's expression was calm. He nodded slightly to those around him as a return greeting. His gaze did not immediately turn to Chen Fei in the secret realm, but slowly turned to the depths of the void where the Heavenly Demon Sovereign had disappeared.

There, a blurry figure stood motionless.

Venerable Tianxuan watched quietly for a moment, until he sensed that the blurry figure had completely disappeared, before slowly withdrawing his gaze.

It seemed like just a casual glance, but every Sovereign Realm expert who witnessed this scene felt a chill run down their spine.

Was the Destroyer really nearby just now?

Was Venerable Tianxuan issuing a warning, or confirming something?
Thinking hard!
Venerable Tianxuan turned around, his gaze falling upon the secret realm. A gentle smile appeared on his face, and he said in a calm voice:

"Let's go."

Inside the secret realm, Chen Fei, with a solemn expression, bowed deeply to the gray-robed figure outside the realm:
"Junior Chen Fei thanks Your Excellency for coming to receive me. I will remember this kindness in my heart."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Fei no longer hesitated. His figure flashed, transforming into a streak of purple-gold light, instantly traversing the barrier of the secret realm and appearing before Venerable Tianxuan, where he bowed once more in respect.

Venerable Tianxuan looked at Chen Fei, smiled slightly, and said, "It's just a trip. Compared to what you did before, what is this little thing of mine?"

Venerable Tianxuan's words were calm, yet they carried a sincere sense of appreciation and affirmation.

Chen Fei swept through the Earth Rankings, reclaimed power, and forced back the demonic tide. Now, he has even broken through to the Dominator level, making this trip worthwhile for him.

Having said that, Venerable Tianxuan flicked his sleeve, and an invisible yet vast and boundless power instantly enveloped all the Sovereign Realm experts present.

Everyone felt a slight ripple in the surrounding space. The next moment, the figures of Venerable Tianxuan and Chen Fei, along with all the Sovereign Realm experts present, became blurry and disappeared silently from their original positions, like reflections in water.

The other Sovereign Realm experts were taken aback when they sensed the irresistible, boundless power surrounding them, but then instantly understood.

Venerable Tianxuan's actions were not without reason; they were very likely related to Venerable Pomesis, who was ranked first on the Heavenly Ranking.

If we let them go their separate ways, there's no guarantee that other problems won't arise.

Taking them along now is a form of protection.

Space shifts, light and shadow change.

In a short while, the dominant experts from various forces along the way were sent back to the vicinity of their respective sects by Venerable Tianxuan using his supreme divine power.

Before the gates of the Tianxuan Sect, the space rippled slightly, and the figures of Venerable Tianxuan, Chen Fei, and three elders quietly appeared.

"You have just entered the realm of the Sovereign, and your realm needs to be stabilized. You need to practice your cultivation techniques. The library contains the inheritances and insights of the Sovereign realm left by the sages of past generations. If you wish, you may go there to read and comprehend them yourself." Venerable Tianxuan looked at Chen Fei and said in a gentle voice.

Upon hearing this, Chen Fei was shocked, and an expression of disbelief appeared in his eyes.

The sect's inheritance, especially the sect's most treasured techniques, such as those of the Heavenly Profound Sect, the leader of the Xuan Yu Realm, has always been a core secret that is never passed on to outsiders; it is the foundation of the sect's existence.

Even disciples of this sect must make great contributions and pass numerous tests before they can even get close to one or two of them.

But now, Venerable Tianxuan has personally promised to open up completely to him?
What a great trust and blessing this is!

Having reached the level of the Heavenly Profound Venerable, one's thoughts and ideas have long transcended sectarianism and the barriers of cultivation techniques. The Xuan Yu Realm is facing a great calamity, and what it needs is not to remain stagnant, but to produce more powerful individuals.

Chen Fei's talent and temperament have already proven everything, making him worthy of such treatment from Venerable Tianxuan.

"This junior thanks Your Excellency for your great kindness!"

Chen Fei bowed deeply to Venerable Tianxuan with utmost sincerity.

Venerable Tianxuan smiled slightly, accepted the greeting, and his figure slowly faded, disappearing as if merging into the world. The three elders beside him nodded slightly to Chen Fei, and their figures also vanished.

Chen Fei took a deep breath, suppressed his turbulent emotions, and with a flash, headed towards the Forging Peak's Heart-Forging Residence.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, two figures appeared in front of him instantly; they were Chang Xiwen and Le Boyang.
