Mountains stretched into the far horizon, and ancient trees towered into the sky.

The Deva Secret Realm was extremely vast and littered with all sorts of scenery such as swamps, deserts, mountain ranges and lakes. It was like a little world of its own.

Lin Xun and the others cautiously and vigilantly made their way through the mountains and forests.

The area was riddled with dangers and many unknown creatures. Inconspicuous ancient trees could turn into terrifying beings the next second and devour those passing by.

Nests glowed brightly on mountain rocks and seemed to house precious treasures, but anyone who approached the nests would suffer attacks from savage birds.

Giant snakes hung down valleys and mountains like huge vines, their scales producing a cold, iridescent sheen.

In addition, purple spiders with green fangs, colorful centipedes over ten feet long, and vicious insects as tall as a human would appear from time to time.

Every creature was terrifying and dangerous. Cultivators could suffer a great calamity if they stepped into their territories.

They were the indigenous creatures of the secret realm and had become extinct in the outside world. The thought of them each occupying an area of the secret realm was chilling enough.

Lin Xun and the others cautiously navigated the area, but even so, they still alerted a terrifying existence.

It was a butterfly around the size of a palm leaf. Its eyes were jade green like the burning will-o'-the-wisp, and its wings emitted a dazzling multicolor glow.

It didn’t look particularly ferocious and even seemed strangely beautiful, but it was more vicious than any other creature they had ever seen before.

If Toady hadn’t reacted quickly and avoided the area, they would have died already.

They even suspected the peculiar butterfly to be at the Life Death Stage!

Boom!

The butterfly couldn’t accept the fact that Lin Xun and the others managed to flee from it, so it beat its wings and whipped up a colorful storm.

It swept across the world with a rumble, tearing and crushing mountains and the ground as it passed. Even the air whimpered from the chaos.

From afar, the butterfly resembled a king standing tall between the heavens and earth. It looked gorgeous with dazzling multicolor lights flowing around its body, but when it flapped its wings, it could cause world-shattering destruction!

It was too terrifying!

If not for their timely response, Lin Xun and the others would have died.

Moreover, the storm that the butterfly created alarmed a nearby azure fox. It jumped out and howled with discontent.

Boom!

The azure fox spirit breathed out a ray of sacred moonlight and launched it at the butterfly.

A fierce battle suddenly broke out. The terrifying power and impact sent a shudder through the world.

“Those are definitely two monster beasts at the Life Death Stage King level!” Toady inhaled sharply.

“Run!”

Lin Xun bolted with all his strength without even taking another look at the earthshaking battle.

He was reminded of the Golden Winged Dapeng and the giant serpent he had come across in the depths of the desert. They were equally as terrifying.

“The Deva Secret Realm is incredibly dangerous. Powerful monster beasts lie everywhere. It would be hard to believe it if one hasn’t seen it with their own eyes.”

Lin Xun and Zhao Jingxuan found the Deva Secret Realm too extraordinary. Its origin was unknown, and it couldn’t just be a legacy of the Deva.

“I’ve been to the Five Elements Holy Island…” Lin Xun recounted his experiences with Zhao Jingxuan and discussed them with her.

“Before I went to Violet Cloud Sacred Mountain, I have also been to several places of opportunity, all of which were imbued with Saint aura, similar to the Five Elements Holy Island you mentioned. However, other clans have already occupied those places, so I don’t know what is hidden there.”

Lin Xun palpitated. It turned out that there are many places of opportunities similar to the Five Elements Holy Island in the Deva Secret Realm!

“You don’t need to keep guessing. I already know what kind of place this is.”

Toady’s brilliant golden eyes blazed with wild excitement. “It is a place to impart Dao. It is a cultivation land prepared by Saints of ancient times for their descendants. They hoped their descendants could surpass them one day and create new legends!”

His voice trembled with emotions. “It required large-scale efforts! If my guess is right, the creator of the secret realm isn’t one person, but a Saint King. He led a group of saints to jointly create the secret realm! Otherwise, it would be impossible for the secret realm to survive millions of years to this day!”

“Heavens, this is the Return Dominion, one of the four great dao dominions, but they managed to open up a secret realm in such a forbidden and terrifying place to create opportunities for their future generation. The large-scale effort to do so is simply unbelievable!”

Lin Xun and Zhao Jingxuan exchanged a glance with one another, inwardly astonished.

In ancient times, a Saint King led a group of saints to Return Dominion to open up a secret realm and prepare a cultivation land for their descendants. They hoped that they could surpass them when they were born and create new legends…

That would be too shocking if it was true.

Why would they do that?

Could it be that they foresaw something so they decided to arrange a path for their descendants to not let them repeat their mistakes?

The more they thought about it, the more shocking it was. The Saints of ancient times were frightening. They made preparations and set up paths for their descendants when they encountered a tricky problem.

“Do you remember the Little Young Master you spoke about? He must be the descendant of a Saint. You took away his blessings, so he won’t let you off when he emerges. The descendants of Saints are all mighty little monsters with heaven-defying strengths!” Toady smiled gloatingly.

“Oh?” Lin Xun raised his eyebrow. “I hope he comes to find me so I can get the last part of the Saint Dao Scripture from him.”

“Are you not afraid?” Toady’s eyes widened.

“What do you think?” Lin Xun again slapped Toady on the back of his head.

Toady winced and looked annoyed.

“In that case, hidden on Violet Cloud Sacred Mountain may be a land of opportunity left by a Saint King?” asked Zhao Jingxuan, her clear eyes filled with a strange expression.

“Indeed.” Toady nodded. “But you must be very careful because the descendants of the Saint King might also be there. Such characters are terrifying. It will no doubt be dangerous to get your fingers into their opportunities!”

“If that’s the case, I would rather give up this opportunity,” Zhao Jingxuan stated. “After all, the consequences of being entangled with a descendant of a Saint King are serious.”

However, before Lin Xun could speak, Toady cried out anxiously, “You’re not going? We’re already here! How can we return empty-handed? I don’t care about any Saint King descendants. Anyway, I was just speculating. It might not be true. Don’t be scared.”

Lin Xun laughed. The treasure-greedy toad would do anything for treasures.

“I am serious. Do you know what a place of imparting dao is? In short, the flames of a burning piece of firewood will be passed on from generation to generation, growing and multiplying without end. Regardless of how amazing the Saints were, they had all died in ancient times. How can their descendants keep all the opportunities and treasures to themselves?” Toady assumed a solemn expression. “That’s the so-called fate. If we are the first to snatch the opportunity, then it means it doesn’t belong to the descendants.”

It seemed Toady was determined to seize the opportunity.

Lin Xun and Zhao Jingxuan were speechless.

In truth, they were also reluctant to give up on the opportunity and leave. There was no harm in going there and taking a look first before they made a decision.

……

They continued onwards after making up their minds. The secret realm was full of rare and valuable rune materials, minerals and medicinal herbs, many of which were extinct in the outside world.

Lin Xun picked up a lot of good stuff along the way.

Of course, they avoided dangerous areas and dared not disturb the monsters and beasts there.

As they neared Violet Cloud Sacred Mountain, Lin Xun’s storage ring became filled with heaps of medicinal herbs and rune materials, giving off a fragrant aroma and dazzling light from time to time. There were also various minerals, ores and rare treasures, all of which were of immeasurable value.

Lin Xun wanted to stay in the secret realm and train if not for its hidden dangers.

Zhao Jingxuan and Toady also made harvests along the way. The two couldn’t help from marveling inwardly. The secret realm is a natural treasury, a blessed cultivation place, but unfortunately, it’s full of deadly dangers.

Soon, a majestic and ancient purple mountain came into their view, piercing the sky of clouds. Purple flames were rising from its body like the rays of the sun.

It indeed resembled a sacred mountain, like a miracle. One glance was enough to stun many people. It was hard to imagine how long it had existed for.

“Purple qi comes from the east, divine light covers the sky, dao fire burns for eternity!” Toady’s golden eyes gleamed as he froze on the spot. “The environment here is incredibly sacred. A great opportunity is no doubt hidden here.”

“It is indeed extraordinary,” Lin Xun marveled.

Violet Cloud Sacred Mountain was enveloped in a majestic aura that compelled him to feel awe.

“Let’s go, they are waiting.”

Zhao Jingxuan took the lead and darted towards Violet Cloud Sacred Mountain in the distance. She had already been there before.

Only then did Lin Xun notice countless figures of powerful cultivators in the nearby area. They all had the same goal: rush towards Violet Cloud Sacred Mountain.

The great opportunity had drawn the attention of so many clans before it appeared in the world. Its appearance would no doubt set off a monstrous storm on Violet Cloud Sacred Mountain and kick off fierce battles!
