Chapter 1349 - Man-Character Secret Realm

Amidst towering mountains, precipitous ridges, and a stretch of white clouds, a figure swept past in an instant. It was none other than Chen Fan.

“Gu Clan, one day, I’ll uproot your entire clan!”

A cold, fierce look flashed in his eyes.

If not for the Nine Immortals Bell granting him immortal strength, he would have perished at White Bone Mountain Ridge, where the Gu Clan had sent Gu Xing to kill him. He would hold on to this grudge. When he had gained enough strength, he would annihilate the entire clan.

Half a month later, Chen Fan returned to the Featherlight Sect. He went to the Merit Hall and handed in his mission.

An elder asked curiously, “Eh? Chen Fan, I didn’t expect you to really complete the White Bone Demonic Being mission. How did you do it?”

While the White Bone Demonic Being was a weakling to them, things were different for Chen Fan.

Although Chen Fan had completed quite a few seventh-grade missions over the past year, White Bone Demonic Being relied on the White Bone Mountain Ridge’s unique environment and could control the white bones to assist him in battle. Even a late-stage or peak Void Immortal expert couldn’t certainly win against him.

Chen Fan said with a smile, “He underestimated me. Thinking my cultivation was too low, he ignored me completely. I took the chance to strike, killing him before he could summon the bones. Pure luck.”

That was indeed the case. The White Bone Demonic Being had arrogantly disregarded Chen Fan, allowing him to end the fight in one go quickly. Otherwise, it would have taken far more effort.

“I see.” The elders nodded, “Here, we’ve already prepared another seventh-grade mission for you.”

Chen Fan declined the mission with a smile. “Elders, I don’t plan to take on more missions for now. Over the past year, I’ve completed many seventh-grade tasks, earned enough merit points and immortal stones, and intend to enter the sect’s secret realm to cultivate for the martial meet in a year and a half.”

“Oh, is that so? Alright, then. You’ve given us many surprises over the past year. Prepare well in the remaining time. We have high hopes for you,” said the elders, smiling.

“

Mmm

. Elders, I’ll be taking my leave first.”

“Go on.”

......

After leaving Merit Hall, Chen Fan returned to the Immortal Tread Institution and checked on his seniors.

Di Chen and the others had not been idle; they trained diligently and completed their missions. A month earlier, Huang Wuji had already entered secluded cultivation in the sect’s secret realm.

The Featherlight Sect had several such realms, created for the cultivation of its disciples.

Within them, primeval qi was denser and the laws more active, so it was no wonder they were highly sought after. But the price was steep: entering required an enormous amount of merit points.

A year ago, Huang Wuji became a Void Immortal with the help of ten thousand immortal stones, becoming a top-tier existence among the low-class disciples. After completing numerous seventh-grade missions, he saved up sufficient merit points and went to the Man-character secret realm.

The sect’s secret realms were divided into Man, Earth, and Heaven levels: for low-class, high-class, and elite disciples, respectively. The Man-character realm was open only to disciples below the Immortal Realm.

Rumors spoke of a tiny, immortal realm existing above the secret realms, where the higher-ups and legacy disciples of the sect went to cultivate in seclusion, its environment countless times superior.

Naturally, Chen Fan had no qualifications to enter; only upon reaching the Immortal King realm would he gain access.

After giving his senior brothers and sisters some cultivation resources, Chen Fan went to the secret realm.

Soon, he arrived at the Man-character secret realm.

From what he knew, the sect’s realms were formed by merging countless smaller ones, connected to the myriad realms themselves; disciples could enter and train, steadily growing stronger.

Entering the Man-character secret realm cost him almost all his merit points, putting him back at the starting point. It was easy to imagine how astronomical the fees for the Earth- and Heaven-character realms must be.

Entering the secret realm, the rich primeval qi assaulted Chen Fan, making his soul feel a surge of pleasure. Almost immediately, he could sense his cultivation stirring restlessly.

Despite the name, this “secret realm” resembled a vast microcosm. Planets dotted the void like stars, orbiting in fixed paths, lush with life.

Above each planet floated a continent spanning fifty thousand kilometers, serving as cultivation grounds for sect disciples.

What left Chen Fan truly stunned was that some mysterious method constantly drew the primeval qi from these planets into the continents themselves, feeding the disciples’ cultivation endlessly.

Using an entire planet’s primeval qi to sustain a secret realm and nurture geniuses. Such a grand undertaking left Chen Fan in awe.

The Featherlight Sect truly lived up to its reputation as one of the ten holy lands of the Imperial Supremacy Heavenly Domain. Its foundation was far deeper than he had ever imagined—hundreds, thousands of times beyond anything on the Tianwu Continent.

Furthermore, this was only the Man-character secret realm. How majestic must the Earth- and Heaven-character realms be?

“This is magnificent!” Chen Fan exclaimed in awe, “Cultivating here for a day is better than cultivating for over a month in the outside world. No wonder the entry cost is astronomical. It’s truly worth the price.”

Chen Fan passed through the secret realms in the Man-character secret realm. The outer secret realms were mostly empty, but the deeper he went, the fewer vacancies remained. Clearly, the inner realms offered better effects, and disciples fought to secure them.

Powerful auras guarded these territories, warning off intruders.

“Heh, today’s the day the protection period for this secret realm ends. A month ago, Wang Ba declared that either that newcomer, Huang Wuji, vacates the secret realm, or he would beat him out once the protection expired.”

“Yes, that Huang Wuji guy is rather stubborn, standing firm against Wang Ba’s tyranny. But I doubt he’ll last. Wang Ba will crush him today, and Huang Wuji won’t escape without a beating.”

“I recall that Wang Ba is already in the late-stage Void Immortal level, right? With that strength, he could easily take a slot among the first thirty realms. Why target No. 100?”

“Heh, Wang Ba had a very close relationship with Lin Heng. Didn’t Chen Fan kill Lin Heng? Wang Ba couldn’t find Chen Fan, so he’s venting on Huang Wuji. After all, Huang Wuji and Chen Fan hail from the same sect in the lower realms. They are sibling disciples.”
