Chapter 499: 499: Secret Realm
But more often, it was because the conditions within the secret land were special, forming a world of its own, from which endless benefits could be obtained simply by being there.
No matter how you looked at it, entering a secret land meant the opportunity to enhance your power. That was certain!
Jiang Xiaobai stood up quickly and followed AnRan out.
As they walked, he asked, “What is the level of your Yuan Spirit engraving?”
“My mother has told me about it. You must engrave your Yuan Spirit to the maximum level. My mother has set a rule for me, every time I reinforce my Yuan Spirit, even the slightest improvement means endless benefits, and the minimum is to break through the Great Achievement realm,” he replied.
Hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai found that AnRan seemed to know a lot and hastily questioned further.
With AnRan’s continuous explanation, Jiang Xiaobai learned that after reaching the peak of power, almost everyone on the Tianxuan Continent would know something about it.
However, they had never heard of the Five Elements Yuan Spirit, let alone the seven-color Yuan Spirit from the Tianfang Yeyu.
They just knew that the Yuan Spirit could be refined, and if one laid a good foundation at the Dividing the gods realm, they would be even stronger in the future.
This indirectly proved that having a power backing was much better than being a rogue cultivator.
Where would a rogue cultivator know about this unless under exceptional circumstances?
“Boss, my mom also said that if you want to break through to the Crossing Disaster period, your natural Yuan Spirit and talent are enough, but if you want to make further achievements, even to breakthrough to the Great Achievement period, only the peak Yuan Spirit would suffice!”
AnRan reminded, “Boss, you have to pay attention to the engraving of your Yuan Spirit. It will play a huge role in the future.”
“Do you think I wouldn’t know?”
Jiang Xiaobai kicked him in the butt without a good temper, “Practice properly. If you don’t engrave a peak Yuan Spirit, I will chop you.”
AnRan made a grimace and did not speak, but soon led Jiang Xiaobai to the main hall. Ao Yan and Ao Cheng had already arrived.
Mu Qingyu and An Wujun stood in the middle, surrounded by the An family and people who had deep connections with Jiang Xiaobai and the An family.
Outside the main hall on the square were other forces who had heard the news and rushed over for a piece of the action.
“Ladies and gentlemen, everyone’s here, please remember each other. We’re all on the same team. After we enter the secret land, we should take care of each other.”
An Wujun laughed.
Everyone nodded, though none of them seemed to take this matter to heart.
This is a world where power rules supreme. For the sake of benefits, there were countless instances where treaties had been torn up.
An Wujun was only saying platitudes.
He then unreservedly shared all the information he knew about the secret land.
“Alright, everyone, set off now. I hope that the same number of people that set off will be the same number of people when we celebrate our success.”
An Wujun said with a smile, these words were indeed said in jest.
It was clearly impossible.
What surprised Jiang Xiaobai was that Mu Qingyu and An Wujun did not intend to go?
“Our aim of entering the secret land is to deal with the Gu tribe. My Mu family and the Gu tribe have been opposing each other for a long time. But now that the Gu tribe is gone, we don’t need to say much more.”
“It’s just that the key is in my An family’s hands. As for the chances inside, they are left for you to explore. We, the older generation, won’t participate.”
Mu Qingyu smiled faintly: “But Jiang Xiaobai, you have to take care of my AnRan. I don’t want him to come out missing arms or legs.”
Jiang Xiaobai immediately nodded. However, AnRan on the side was not happy.
“Mom, where do you have such little faith in your own son? I’m not weak!”
“Yes.” Mu Qingyu nodded. However, it seemed somewhat perfunctory.
For a moment, AnRan was so angry he was about to explode, and everyone else laughed heartily.
Afterwards, the group left the hall and headed to the square outside. This place was crowded with people from at least a dozen different families.
Jiang Xiaobai was shocked, he had no idea that so many people knew about the secret land?
He wanted to look around and see if he could spot the mastermind who had sent those three fools to chase him.
However, it seemed unlikely, but he suddenly thought of those three fools, and he missed them for some reason.
He missed the feeling of being chased by these three people from one end of the earth to the other.
Unable to suppress his feelings, Jiang Xiaobai sent them a message, but there was no reply. It was as if a stone had been dropped into the ocean and sank without a trace.
“Ugh, those three fools didn’t get killed by the Gu tribe, did they?”
Jiang Xiaobai murmured.
Soon after, he saw An Wujun say a few words and then, along with Mu Qingyu, lead the team on their way.
Through the An family’s special teleportation array, everyone directly arrived at a small town in Northern State. The secret land was not far away in a desolate mountain nearby.
Following An Wujun, a magnificent crowd set off, attracting the attention of many people in the small town.
Soon, they arrived, and Jiang Xiaobai found out that it was indeed a barren mountain!
“Ladies and gentlemen, the secret land is right here, but let’s wait a moment, there’re still more forces coming from the sacred city.”
“This secret land can probably only be open for seven days, everyone, put in your best efforts, don’t let all the benefits go to those from the sacred city.”
Mu Qingyu smiled and then walked over to AnRan’s side.
“Xiaobai, you all be careful. I’ve recently received news that the Sacred City has their eyes on you. If possible, you might want to conceal your identities.”
Jiang Xiaobai nodded, he thought it was due to Gu Ning overturning the Temple of War previously.
“Don’t worry, my boss’ disguise skills are top-notch. When the time comes, even you, my mom, would not recognize me after being disguised.” AnRan laughed.
Immediately after, Jiang Xiaobai began to demonstrate his tremendous skills and helped everyone with makeup.
Ao Yan had only a slight adjustment but he looked completely different. With Ao Cheng, this guy was rather unique, he strongly asked Jiang Xiaobai for a handsome makeover.
Jiang Xiaobai naturally agreed and made him incredibly flamboyant, just like a crane among a flock of chickens.
For the rest, their appearances were completely changed. They could be thrown into a crowd and not be noticed.
Just as the makeover ended, at least three hundred people descended from the sky. Among them, Jiang Xiaobai surprisingly recognized a familiar face.
Li Xi from Xuanwu Sect, what was even more surprising was that Xu Kong Sect also came, and among them was Ouyang Haohai.
For a moment, Jiang Xiaobai and the others were relieved that they had made the effort to disguise themselves.
If they had ran into each other face to face, a conflict might have broken out. From Ouyang Haohai’s arrogant appearance, Jiang Xiaobai knew that the guy would definitely take action.
As soon as the people arrived, An Wujun pulled out three golden keys without any nonsense and set up an array on the ground before inserting the keys.
Immediately, a golden gate appeared out of nowhere in the void!
The keys were inserted and turned, the gate opened.
“Ladies and Gentlemen, let’s go.”
Mu Qingyu said indifferently.
Almost the instant she finished speaking, everyone rushed in!
