The core of Chinese martial arts is "power," which is the ultimate control of body and mind, and the condensation and flourishing of essence, energy, and spirit.

The core of the Secret Realm Technique is "divine power," which is a vast magical power awakened from the divine treasures within the physical body. It can activate divine weapons and traverse the void.

"One is to create an infinite realm within a finite physical body, and the other is to use a finite physical body as a bridge to achieve a complete leap in the level of life."

O celestial beings, lend me your astonishing wisdom...

Ye Chen entered a state of enlightenment!

The myriad realms.

The light of ten stars poured down.

That was Ye Chen from ten different worlds cultivating simultaneously, with every insight and every wisp of divine power flowing into his body.

Ye Chen sat cross-legged in the illusory image of the Dao Palace, closing his eyes.

Within the five internal organs, the second divine treasure was continuously opening up.

A vast divine power poured down from the void, enveloping his entire body in a golden and black interwoven light.

Ten other beings from different worlds opened their eyes simultaneously.

Ten portions of cultivation results flowed into his body.

He will attend the meeting at Canglang Ridge on time.

What awaits the six sects of Yue at that time is not a Nascent Soul cultivator, but an existence they cannot even imagine.

……

"Father, where are we going again?"

Han Li couldn't help but ask, with the day of the Seven Sects' duel fast approaching, why was his father not in seclusion to cultivate, but instead taking him sightseeing? He couldn't understand it.

If he hadn't known his father's formidable strength, he would have fled Yue long ago, given his cautious nature. After all, a gentleman's revenge is never too late.

A cultivator's revenge is never too late!

He has already planned his escape route.

"Didn't you say our Heavenly Dao Sect's formations were inadequate? And there's an ancient teleportation array that needs repairing?"

Ye Chen spoke calmly, flying over the mountains of Yue Kingdom on his sword, his figure like a streak of light shuttling between the sea of ​​clouds.

His purpose in coming here is to find someone... Xin Ruyin, a dragon-roar physique, a natural genius in array formations, who should still be living in seclusion in the mountains and forests of that area.

In the early days of the Heavenly Dao Sect, everything was in disarray and needed to be rebuilt. If a master of formations like this were to be in charge, the protective formation for the mountain would be secured.

The ancient teleportation array leading to the Chaotic Star Sea can also be repaired.

Following the direction of the Tianxing Sect Market, the plane flew over the territory of Huangfeng Valley, and circled around several nameless desolate mountains before finally stopping in front of a small mountain shrouded in mist.

"Is there anything different here?"

Han Li was astonished.

The mountains are ordinary mountains, and the trees are ordinary trees.

But when Ye Chen scanned the area with his divine sense, he noticed something unusual... The distribution of the mist in this mountain forest was extremely subtle, subtly conforming to the numbers of the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams, seemingly formed naturally.

In reality, each wisp of mist slowly flows along a fixed trajectory, enveloping the entire hill in an invisible array barrier.

Ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators would hardly notice this exquisite disguise.

It is indeed the work of a master of formations.

Ye Chen lowered his sword light, landing at the foot of the mountain.

Just as he was about to walk up the stone path, he suddenly frowned.

The array's aura is off... Several key nodes show faint signs of breakage, as if they had been forcibly broken open.

He hurried up the mountain, passed through a bamboo forest, and saw several bamboo houses halfway up the mountain.

The door was half-closed, and a cup of cooled tea sat on the stone table in the courtyard, with a few unopened leaves floating in the tea.

The furnishings inside were simple yet neat, the only things that weren't neat were the overturned wooden chair and a few dark brown marks on the floor.

Bloodstains.

Ye Chen squatted down, lightly touching the dried marks with his fingertips, and then glanced around... There were obvious signs of a fight outside the bamboo house.

There were several shallow furrows on the ground, plowed out by magical artifacts. A broken hairpin lay in the grass; it was made of green jade and carved with extremely fine cloud patterns.

"The person is gone; judging from the signs, it happened at least three days ago."

Han Li frowned; it seemed they had come here only to find nothing.

"No rush."

Ye Chen stood up, put the hairpin into his pocket, and summoned his flying sword again.

A vast and boundless divine consciousness spread out, radiating outwards from the small mountain as its center.

Within a radius of a hundred miles, it was all desolate mountains and wilderness, except for a faint fluctuation of spiritual energy in the southeast direction, as if someone was activating a magical artifact to travel.

His breathing was intermittent, as if he was injured.

Ye Chen led Han Li up into the sky.

He rode his sword straight ahead, the sword light piercing the sky.

In a short moment, they caught up with the source of the spiritual energy fluctuation.

On the mountain path, a pretty girl of sixteen or seventeen was seen fleeing for her life.

His clothes were tattered, his hair was disheveled, and his left shoe was missing. He was barefoot on the gravel, and his sole was bleeding.

She ran while looking back, her eyes filled with terror, clearly indicating that something terrible was chasing her.

Behind her, three streaks of light were rapidly approaching from afar. They were three late-stage Qi Refining cultivators with sinister smiles on their faces, their magical weapons already poised to strike.

The girl tripped over a tree root and fell to the ground, her knee hitting a rock and bleeding profusely.

She gritted her teeth and got up, only to find that her legs were too weak to support her weight.

The three streaks of light drew ever closer, and the leader released a crimson throwing knife, aiming straight for the girl's back...

Ye Chen raised his hand and pointed.

A beam of green light shot out from the fingertip, striking the throwing knife with perfect accuracy.

The throwing knife paused for a moment in mid-air before shattering into countless crimson fragments that drifted down from the sky.

The three streaks of light came to an abrupt halt.

The three men's expressions changed drastically, and they looked up.

A tall, slender figure stood with his hands behind his back atop the clouds, dressed in black with black hair and black eyes. His face was so handsome that he seemed otherworldly, and his aura was unfathomable.

"not good!"

The three exchanged a glance, then turned and fled without a word, disappearing into the distance at the edge of the mountains in the blink of an eye.

Ye Chen did not pursue.

Amid the girl's puzzled gaze, Ye Chen glanced at her.

An unbelievable scene unfolded: before the three could even scream, they exploded into a cloud of blood mist.

Only the magical artifacts and the storage bag fell from mid-air.

Then, the girl saw a dark-skinned, unremarkable-looking boy appear. With quick eyes and hands, he grabbed the magic weapon and storage bag and put them into his possession.

...That's way too skilled!

The girl was astonished; she only dared to look at the ordinary-looking boy.

He dared not look directly at the senior in black clothes and with black hair in front of him.

But then, with a hiss, the senior descended his sword light and landed in front of her.

The girl, still shaken, hurriedly lowered her head, her lips moving a few times before she said in a trembling voice:

"S-Senior... Thank you so much for saving my life!"

"What's your name? Why are you being chased?"

"My name is Xiaohe, and my mistress has been kidnapped!"

The girl's eyes reddened, and tears rolled down her cheeks. "My young lady's surname is Xin. She is proficient in formations. Three days ago, a group of people broke into the mountains and broke the formation. My young lady lured them away!"

She told me to run away and find someone to help me, but... but I can't find anyone..."

"Which direction did they go?"

"North! They said they're sending the young lady to the Fu family, I think it's... the biggest cultivation family in the Yuanwu Kingdom..."

A cold glint flashed in Ye Chen's eyes.

It seems that the Fu family is indeed used to running rampant in Yuanwu Kingdom, daring to rob anyone.

Their dirty hands have even reached into the Yue Kingdom. The seven sects of the Yue Kingdom are truly utterly useless. How can they possibly manage the cultivation world of the Yue Kingdom if they associate with such infested sects?
