The Immortal Emperor Reborn: Accompanying My Child on the Extraordinary Journey

Chapter 117: Mo Xuan's Adventure

Mo Xuan stood at the entrance to the secret realm, his gaze determined and filled with anticipation. The secret realm was shrouded in a light mist, faintly revealing an ancient and mysterious aura. He took a deep breath, turned to his companions, and said, "Wait here for me. I'll go in and take a look."

"Mo Xuan, you have to be careful!" Yun Che warned with concern.

"Don't worry, I will be careful." Mo Xuan nodded with a smile, then stepped into the entrance of the secret realm.

As soon as he entered the secret realm, Mo Xuan felt a powerful pressure coming towards him, as if a heavy burden weighed on him. He gritted his teeth and summoned all his strength to barely withstand the pressure.

The interior of the secret realm was a dim space, illuminated only by the occasional flicker of fluorescent light. Mo Xuan moved forward cautiously, constantly alert to any movement around him.

Suddenly, a dark shadow darted out from the darkness and lunged towards Mo Xuan. Quick-witted, Mo Xuan dodged the shadow's attack with a swift movement. He peered closely and saw it was a gigantic black monster, emitting a foul odor.

"Hmph, it seems that this place is indeed not simple." Mo Xuan snorted coldly, drew the long sword at his waist, and prepared to fight.

The black demonic beast roared and lunged at Mo Xuan again. Mo Xuan, nimble and swift, wielded his sword, engaging the demonic beast in a fierce battle. Swords flashed, shadows flew, and the two engaged in a fierce, drawn-out struggle.

Mo Xuan became more and more frightened as the fight went on. The strength of this monster was so powerful. Although his swordsmanship was exquisite, he seemed powerless in the face of the monster's brute force.

"This can't go on any longer." Mo Xuan thought to himself, and decided to change his tactics and win by intelligence.

He deliberately exposed a flaw, luring the monster to attack him. The monster fell for it, opening its bloody mouth and biting Mo Xuan. Mo Xuan dodged the monster's attack by moving his body to the side, and at the same time, swung his sword, slashing through the monster's neck.

Blood gushed out, and the monster let out a scream before falling to the ground. Mo Xuan sheathed his sword and looked at the fallen monster, feeling a wave of fear in his heart.

"It seems that there are dangers everywhere here. I must be more careful." Mo Xuan said to himself.

He continued forward, passing through the dim passage, and came to a spacious hall. In the center of the hall stood a huge altar, which shone with dazzling light.

Mo Xuan approached the altar and carefully observed the patterns on it. These patterns were very complex, and he couldn't make out what they meant even after studying them for a long time.

At this moment, the altar suddenly glowed brightly, and a powerful suction force emanated from it, pulling Mo Xuan towards the center of the altar. Mo Xuan was horrified and tried his best to break free, but to no avail.

"Oh no, I'm going to be sucked in!" Mo Xuan thought to himself that something was wrong, but he was powerless to do anything about it.

The next moment, Mo Xuan's figure disappeared from the altar and was sucked into an unknown space.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in an unfamiliar environment. It was a barren desert, with the scorching sun in the sky, scorching the earth.

"Where is this place? How did I get here?" Mo Xuan's heart was filled with confusion and anxiety.

He stood up and looked around, hoping to find some clues. However, there was nothing here except yellow sand and scorching sun.

Mo Xuan sighed helplessly and decided to get out of the desert first. He took a step forward and trudged forward through the desert.

After an unknown amount of time, Mo Xuan finally emerged from the desert and arrived at a dense forest. The forest was filled with birdsong and flowers, full of life, completely different from the desert he had been in before.

Mo Xuan was filled with joy. He finally saw hope. He quickened his pace, walked through the forest, and arrived at a small town.

The people in the town were dressed simply, their faces filled with simple smiles. Mo Xuan looked at these strange yet friendly faces, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart.

He walked into an inn and planned to rest for a while. The innkeeper was a kind old woman who warmly entertained Mo Xuan.

"Young man, where are you from? How did you get here?" the proprietress asked curiously.

Mo Xuan smiled bitterly and briefly told the proprietress about his experience.

"Oh, so that's how it is. We also have a secret realm here, but it's different from yours. Our secret realm is very mysterious. It is said that it contains treasures from ancient times. But few people who enter come out alive." The proprietress said solemnly.

Mo Xuan's heart moved when he heard this. He asked, "Then Madam Boss, do you know where the entrance to this secret realm is?"

"The entrance? I only know that it is located in the mountains north of our town, but I don't know the exact location. Young man, I advise you not to take the risk. After all, you only have one life." The proprietress advised.

Mo Xuan glanced at the proprietress with gratitude and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but I am a cultivator, and the pursuit of power and opportunity is my mission. I must give it a try."

Seeing this, the proprietress shook her head helplessly and stopped trying to dissuade him.

Mo Xuan rested for the night and set out for the northern mountains early the next morning. After crossing mountains and ridges, and going through untold hardships, he finally found the entrance to the secret realm.

The entrance was shrouded in a light mist, somewhat similar to the secret realm Mo Xuan had entered before. He took a deep breath and stepped in.

Inside the secret realm was a vast space, filled with rich spiritual energy. Mo Xuan looked around and discovered that this was actually a natural place for cultivation.

He found a place with the richest spiritual energy, sat cross-legged, and began to practice. As the spiritual energy continued to flow in, Mo Xuan's strength also steadily improved.

After an unknown amount of time, Mo Xuan finally opened his eyes. He stood up, feeling the surging power within him, and a surge of excitement filled his heart.

At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him. Mo Xuan looked closely and saw that it was a mysterious man in a black robe.

The mysterious man looked at Mo Xuan coldly and said, "You are finally here."

Mo Xuan was stunned and asked, "Who are you? How did you know I would come here?"

"I am the guardian of this secret realm. I have been waiting here for countless years just for your arrival." The mysterious man said slowly.

"Wait for me? Why?" Mo Xuan was even more confused.

"Because you are the only one who can unlock the secrets of this secret realm." The mysterious man explained, "This secret realm was originally a place of cultivation for an ancient great being. He left behind countless opportunities and treasures here. But to obtain these opportunities and treasures, you must pass a series of tests."

"Test? What test?" Mo Xuan asked.

"You will know soon." Before the mysterious man finished speaking, his figure turned into a black light and disappeared from Mo Xuan's sight.

Mo Xuan shook his head helplessly and decided to continue exploring this secret place. He followed the direction where the mysterious man disappeared and soon arrived in front of a huge palace.

The palace gate was tightly closed, with some complex patterns carved on it. Mo Xuan carefully observed these patterns, hoping to find a way to open the gate.

At this moment, the palace gate suddenly opened slowly, and a powerful pressure emanated from within the palace. Mo Xuan took a deep breath and stepped inside.

The interior of the palace was spacious and mysterious, with a huge altar in the center. The altar shone with a dazzling light, somewhat similar to the altar Mo Xuan had seen before.

Mo Xuan approached the altar and discovered a pill emitting rich spiritual energy. He was moved, knowing that this pill must be extraordinary.

However, just as he was about to reach for the pill, a figure suddenly appeared behind him. Mo Xuan turned around and found that the person who came was the mysterious man he had met before.

"What do you want to do?" Mo Xuan looked at the mysterious man warily.

"This pill is not something you can touch." The mysterious man said coldly.

"Why? Is it yours?" Mo Xuan asked unwillingly.

"It is my master's relic. No one can get it except me." The mysterious man explained.

Mo Xuan felt a sense of loss upon hearing this, but he wasn't about to give up. He stared at the mysterious man and said, "Then can you tell me what the secret of this secret realm is?"

The mysterious man was silent for a moment, then said, "The secret of this secret realm is that it can grant you powers beyond those of ordinary people. But to obtain this power, you must pass a series of tests."

"Test? What test?" Mo Xuan asked again.

"You will know soon." Before the mysterious man finished speaking, his figure turned into a black light again and attacked Mo Xuan.

Mo Xuan was horrified. He tried his best to dodge, but the mysterious man was too fast and he couldn't avoid him at all.

Just as the mysterious man's attack was about to fall on Mo Xuan, a golden light suddenly burst out from Mo Xuan's body, enveloping him.

The mysterious man's attack landed on the golden light and was actually bounced back. He was shocked and looked at Mo Xuan with a look of disbelief.

"You...how can you have such powerful strength?" the mysterious man asked in shock.

Mo Xuan was also stunned. He had no idea why such a powerful force had erupted from his body. He looked at his hands, his heart filled with confusion and surprise.

At this moment, the altar in the palace suddenly shone brightly, and a powerful force emanated from the altar, enveloping Mo Xuan and the mysterious man.

After the light faded, Mo Xuan found himself in an unfamiliar space. This space was filled with rich spiritual energy, and in the center stood a large pool of water. The pool emitted a faint fluorescent light, giving it a mysterious appearance.

"Where is this place? How did I get here?" Mo Xuan was full of doubts.

At this moment, an old man in white appeared before him. His hair and beard were all white, but he looked energetic, with wisdom glittering in his eyes.

"Young man, you are finally here." The old man said with a smile.

"Who are you? Where is this place? Why am I here?" Mo Xuan asked three questions in a row.

The old man smiled and explained, "I am the creator of this secret realm and also your master. The fact that you can come here means that you have passed the test."

"Test? What test?" Mo Xuan was still confused.

"The mysterious man you met before is actually a clone of mine. He has been testing your courage and wisdom. The golden light in your body is the power I left for you. Only those who possess this power can become my apprentice." The old man explained.

Mo Xuan was thrilled upon hearing this. He had never imagined he would become the disciple of this mysterious old man. He bowed respectfully and said, "Master, please accept my disciple's greetings."

The old man smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay, from today on, you are my disciple. I will teach you the supreme cultivation method and make you a powerful figure in the world of cultivation."

Mo Xuan's heart was filled with anticipation and gratitude, he knew that his life would change from then on.

In the following days, Mo Xuan followed his master and practiced diligently. He learned a lot.
