Bamboo Mound

Upon hearing the word "master," alarm bells immediately went off in Ning Chang's mind.

Once the fetal heartbeat is detected, the primordial spirit will exist, which means that the act of possession is also inevitable in this world!

To become the master of a secret realm and easily prevent those at the Transformation Realm from entering, one must be someone he is far beyond his current capabilities to contend with!

He even thought of the possibility that some half-dead old thing was choosing a suitable container with certain conditions!

However, no matter how much Ning Chang thought about it, Ge Shu didn't see his concerns and immediately said:

"I won't go into details about that; please observe as you go."

As she spoke, she raised her hand and sent out a beam of spiritual light that shot into Ning Chang's brow!

Immediately, Ning Chang entered a state of mental confusion.

In his perception, the images in his eyes suddenly disappeared, or rather, all images transformed into a blank space, in which several pure white pages floated side by side, each one enormous, with clearly visible writing on them.

"...The mangled remains of a powerful human fell from the heavens into the Astrology Pavilion. Armless and limbless, its head and body torn apart, its eyes blinded, and powerful spiritual energy continuously leaked out..."

"...The current sect leader approached him, heard his voice, and discovered that he still had a faint breath, but was told that there was nothing that could be done to save him..."

"...Unwilling to let his life's work on the art of pupil techniques be lost, he bestowed upon the world a compendium of extraordinary pupils, transforming himself into a secret realm, which can only be opened by those with the Eye of Delusion Breaking..."

"...From this point on, the Astrological Pavilion should search for the inheritance of the Eye of Truth that pierces through illusion, in order to obtain other worldly experiences and cultivation techniques..."

......

Seeing that Ning Chang had finished receiving the information and opened his eyes, Ge Shu immediately said:

"This is the information about that secret realm recorded in my Astrology Pavilion. At the same time, young friend, you do not need to worry about the possibility of that powerful being possessing your body."

"Through countless divinations by generations of sect leaders of our Astrology Pavilion, the safety of that secret realm has been confirmed."

Her speech was fluent and her pace was moderate; it was unclear whether she had thought of it beforehand and rehearsed it countless times.

"If you pass the test and enter, all the opportunities inside will naturally belong to you."

"At that time, according to your wishes, we will have the four sects make copies of those cultivation techniques. In addition, the Astrology Pavilion will pay a generous reward."

"As for that secret realm, young friend, your cultivation level is insufficient, and you lack the method to merge with it, so it is of little use to you. The Astrology Pavilion is willing to offer a price in addition to the reward to acquire it."

Only then did she stop talking and wait for Ning Chang's decision.

"If that's the case, then after all this time, none of the many people from the Astrology Pavilion who cultivated to the Transformation Realm and ascended have returned?"

"Furthermore, if there's only inheritance, why is a separate secret realm needed?"

He still had some concerns, and according to the description in the spiritual light, the person who fell from outer space couldn't be that high-level. He could probably break through that secret realm if he was one or two levels higher than Huayuan.

"It's just as expected."

Ge Shu looked somewhat helpless.

"We did consider breaking the seal on that secret realm once we reached a higher level."

"However, once one reaches the Transformation Realm, the spiritual energy of this world becomes insufficient to support further advancement. Therefore, predecessors naturally had to cultivate elsewhere before considering the matter of secret realms."

"But once they left, no one ever came back. This was true for the Astrology Pavilion and for all four sects."

"Therefore, we will no longer think about that method, and will only focus on finding the Eye of Truth."

"Regarding the issue of the secret realm itself, although the four sects are very powerful when they come together, they are still relatively lacking in the area of ​​secret realms."

Ge Shu paused, took a sip of water to moisten his throat, and then spoke again:

"Otherwise, Medicine King Valley alone would contain more than just these five secret realms."

She gestured around the five gates surrounding the square.

"Moreover, although there are five of them, only the one we just entered is unique to Medicine King Valley."

"Unique?" Ning Chang asked, frowning.

"That's right. Of the other four, one is for breeding spirit beasts, and three are for trials. Each of the four sects has a secret entrance to the realm."

"Are secret realms really that hard to find?" Ning Chang couldn't help but wonder. The Four Sects were all major sects that had existed for a very long time. Even if it was one every hundred years, there shouldn't be so few secret realms.

"If we're just talking about secret realms, they're easy to find. A secret realm will appear every once in a while, so they're not rare."

"However, the smaller ones have unstable internal spaces and can only be used to refine space bags."

Only large, spacious secret realms, like the spiritual plant realm we just entered, can remain.

"Because only such a secret realm can provide a stable space and more functions."

After listening, Ning Changcai nodded to indicate that he understood.

It seems that there are probably not many more secret realms unique to the Astrology Pavilion and the Weapon Refining Workshop.

"Let's talk about it then."

He did not agree immediately.

"I'll go to the Astrology Pavilion after I've practiced some more. At least until then, I will."

In any case, all I can obtain are some eye techniques and a few cultivation methods.

The eye techniques are nothing more than illusions, and the cultivation methods themselves can't be that good.

So let's just let it slide for now, and the specific time will depend on when he remembers.

“I understand.” Ge Shu nodded.

Although she had great confidence in herself and the divination methods of the Astrology Pavilion, the fact that all the divination results for that secret realm over the years had been exactly the same made her hesitant to take any risks.

The idea of ​​first taking Ning Chang to test whether she possessed the "Breaking Through Illusions and Bright Eyes" was never even considered.

Anyway, after waiting for so long, apart from that secret realm, there's nothing else that the Astrology Pavilion absolutely needs. Of course, that secret realm isn't something they urgently need either.

When the time comes, Ning Chang will go and have his eyes tested. If it's the Eye of Breaking Illusion, then this matter will be settled; if it's the Eye of Clear Mirror, then we'll wait for the next person.

After all, it wasn't just her task, or even a task at all. Once her term ended, it would be the next sect leader's job.

"Let's end our conversation here. You may return to your lodgings or wander around Medicine King Valley at your leisure."

Ge Shu waved his hand, and all the light shields around the square disappeared.

"Someone will come to you once the water filling is complete."

"Such a big pit, it would take Ning Tongyu a long time to build it by himself. For the sake of his reputation, he won't ask other elders and disciples to help."

"I have already notified the elders of the three sects who have some cultivation, and they should be arriving soon."

Before he finished speaking, streaks of light appeared all around, and figures appeared on the square, each with a different appearance and a cultivation level much higher than Ning Chang's!

After the visitors bowed to Ge Shu, they gathered to one side and stood there. A constant murmur of voices could be heard, but Ning Chang could not make out a single word!
