Chapter 853 The Secret Realm

"Who are you? Why are you here? Were you attacked by a mysterious spirit? What does that mysterious spirit look like?" Ji Liuying asked, as she lowered the sword spirit and looked at the person lying on the sand.

"I don't know, was I attacked by a mysterious spirit?" Chen Guan slowly sat up. He had no idea that he had been attacked by any mysterious spirit.

Chen Guan was in a good mood at the time and did not argue with Ji Liuying.

He has completed the Eightfold Insight and awakened his own secret realm.

However, unlike the secret realms of ordinary people, his secret realm did not exist originally, but was created by himself using the One Secret Method in conjunction with the Creation World and the Secret Law.

The Secret Realm is equivalent to an independent, rule-based space, much like an artificially created ecological park isolated from the outside world.

Once the connection with the secret realm is established, one can obtain the vital energy and rule enhancements from the ecological park.

Chen Guan couldn't find an ecological park that matched his own, so he built one himself.

Based on the secret methods and framework of the secret laws, he used the power of creation to directly create an ecological garden that belonged only to himself.

However, the secret realm he created himself was not very stable, nor was it as large as those other secret realms; it was just a small one.

When Chen Guan opened the passage, only a small aura of secret realm appeared above his head, unlike other people whose aura of secret realm could cover their entire body.

Moreover, the secret realm was completely empty, with almost no vital energy inside, as thin as oxygen at high altitudes.

Apart from vital energy, there is nothing else inside. To put it bluntly, it is just a tiny, empty secret realm.

However, the secret realm that Chen Guan created himself was not without its advantages.

Other cultivators can only sense the existence of the secret realm and draw upon the energy flowing from within it.

However, Chen Guan can directly immerse his consciousness into the secret realm, and even control the entire secret realm.

Hmm, it's just an empty shell of a secret realm, barely a cubic meter in size, so there doesn't seem to be anything worth controlling.

Chen Guan sensed the information of this secret realm, and sure enough, a new secret realm section appeared in his own attribute information. The name of this secret realm was blank.

He initially thought the name of the secret realm was Blank, similar to his secret law, but he quickly realized that this was not the name of the secret realm. Rather, the secret realm had no name and was waiting for Chen Guan to name it, hence the blank state.

Chen Guan named his secret realm "Secret Realm One," and just as he was about to leave the sand, a sand scorpion appeared out of nowhere and tried to stab him on the head with its stinger.

Chen Guan didn't exert any force at all; the scorpion's tail got close to him, but suddenly stopped moving.

The once vibrant sand scorpion's body turned into a dry shell almost instantly, and all its energy was absorbed into Chen Guan's secret realm.

"The Secret Realm of One can actually plunder energy from the outside world?" Chen Guan was both surprised and delighted, as he had never heard of such a thing before.

Secret realms should generally only bless cultivators and not plunder external energy.

Chen Guan sensed that there were still many sand scorpions nearby, as if the area had originally been a sand scorpion nest.

He deliberately controlled the Secret Realm, and actually drained all the sand scorpions in the vicinity.

Not only the sand scorpions, but even the free-floating elemental energy in the air was absorbed by the secret realm, creating a vacuum zone of elemental energy in the vicinity.

Startled, a large number of sand scorpions fled from their nests, scattering in the distance. Chen Guan only closed the First Secret Realm when he sensed someone approaching.

After absorbing the energy of these sand scorpions, the space of the Secret Realm did not increase in size; only the primordial energy within it became much denser.

"With the First Secret Realm, I can easily absorb all the energy. This is a very useful ability." Chen Guan pondered how to utilize this ability of the First Secret Realm.

"Which of the ten great families are you from?" Ji Liuying thought Chen Guan was relatively weak and hadn't seen how he was injured by the secret spirit, so she asked again.

"I am not a member of the Ten Great Families," Chen Guan said, shaking his head.

Upon hearing this, Ji Liuying's expression softened somewhat.

Apart from the members of the ten major families who forcibly entered the Ji Family's Great Cave Heaven, everyone else who entered the Ji Family's Great Cave Heaven had paid a fee.

Ji Liuying naturally felt no ill will towards such a person.

After thinking for a moment, Ji Liuying landed and squatted down next to Chen Guan. She looked him over and said, "Don't move yet. Let me see how your injuries are. As long as they're not too serious, the medicine I brought should be able to help you."

"I'm not injured." Chen Guan quickly stood up.

Seeing that Chen Guan was actually alright, Ji Liuying was somewhat surprised and said, "That evil spirit didn't kill you, it just knocked you unconscious by throwing you into the sand?"

"What evil spirit?" Chen Guan asked, frowning.

“It seems you really don’t know anything. You’re incredibly lucky.” Ji Liuying pointed to a sand scorpion corpse not far away and said, “There’s an extremely evil spirit that sucked all those sand scorpions dry. They turn to ash at the slightest touch. You must have been attacked by it, but it didn’t drain you dry. Your luck is unparalleled.”

Chen Guan was speechless, but now that things had come to this, he couldn't very well say that he was the one who had drained those sand scorpions dry.

"So, I guess I'm really lucky," Chen Guan said after coughing twice.

"Not only is it good, but you encountered such an evil spirit and didn't even get hurt. You're lucky enough to buy a lottery ticket." Ji Liuying looked around and continued, "It seems that the evil spirit has already left. If you don't plan to leave the Tearful Desert, you can come with me for the time being. I will stay here for three months. After three months, you can come back to the Ji family with me."

"Are you from the Ji family?" Chen Guan asked, looking at Ji Liuying with interest.

"I'm considered a legitimate member of the Ji family. My name is Ji Liuying. What's yours?" Ji Liuying asked casually.

"The King of Light," Chen Guan said casually.

Since Ji Liuying didn't recognize him, there was no need for him to mention Chen Guan's name, lest he cause more trouble.

“The surname Ming is quite rare.” Ji Liuying said this casually, without intending to delve into it further. She waved her hand at Chen Guan and said, “Let’s go. We can catch up with those sand scorpions and take them down. The secret spirits in this Tearful Desert are not easy to find. We can’t let this opportunity slip by.”

As she spoke, Ji Liuying had already flown over there on the sword spirit.

Chen Guan was about to turn around and leave, but then he thought about it again and chased after him.

He planned to ask Ji Liuying about the current situation of the Ji family. He remembered that when Ji Tianwang left, he left a ring in the Ji family.

The ring seemed to have been specially left for him to retrieve. If he had the chance, he would like to take a look at what was inside the ring.
