Chapter 676: Bei Ming Xuanse’s Decision, One of the Godly Secret Realms

Inside the dark, bottomless Deep Ocean Valley.

On this day, the Scaled Tribe’s Emperor, Bei Ming Xuanse arrived. The moment he stepped into this land, that strange voice rang out once again.

“Bei Ming Xuanse, you’re here at last.”

“You wanted me here. What was I supposed to do?”

Bei Ming Xuanse looked glum as he replied.

He felt that he must be mad to be doing this.

Otherwise, why else would he be here?

“My request is simple. Just shatter that stone tablet that is limiting my powers! If you manage to free me, no one will look down on the Scaled Tribe from now on, and no one will dare belittle you. You will become… a God!!”

That voice tempted him in a bewitching manner.

“A God?” Bei Ming Xuanse’s eyes lit up.

“Yes. I have a divine fragment with me right now. As long as you release me, I will not only help you exact revenge, but I will also bestow this divine fragment upon you. Once you’ve refined this divine fragment, you will become the next Sea God!

“The almighty power of the sea shall belong to you!!”

Upon hearing this, Bei Ming Xuanse was a little tempted. He looked toward the depths of the Deep Ocean Valley and found that there was indeed a faint glow coming from there.

That faint glow was emitted from a stone tablet.

Be Ming Xuanse inhaled deeply before dashing toward that stone tablet. After that, he lifted his arm and punched his fist ferociously at the stone tablet.

However, despite the violent collision with his Emperor qi, the stone tablet was unscathed.

“This stone tablet was set up by the archaic ancient Emperors to vanquish the Gods of the Sea. It’ll be impossible to smash this thing apart with my own powers.”

Bei Ming Xuanse frowned.

If the Gods’ Seal was so easily breakable, the Gods would not have been oppressed for so many years.

He gave it another few tries, but in the end, his efforts were futile.

“It seems like you’re just too weak.”

That voice sounded a little disappointed. However, it continued, “Head to the Bottomless Chasm. That was once the place where all of us lived. There is a Godly Weapon in there. Go and take it out. Then, come back to break the seal.”

A ray of blue light then shot out from the Deep Ocean Valley and infused into his body. “This Divine Might can grant you protection and freedom to roam around the Bottomless Chasm. But bear in mind that once you arrive at my palace, leave immediately after retrieving the Godly Weapon. Do not linger around any longer, and do not cause any damage to the palace. The Divine Might Seal that I have set up is still there. If there’s any damage to the place, it would be activated.”

“Bottomless Chasm, huh? Got it.”

Bei Ming Xuanse nodded.

…

Meanwhile, at the Black Heaven Sect.

Since mastering the Phantasmal Seven Emotions Tune, Chu Kuangren has sculpted a Phantasmal Secret Realm using this Immortal Technique. He designated this secret realm as a place for his disciples to train their Daoist cores and commanded all his disciples to head there and do as such.

Currently, in front of the Phantasmal Secret Realm.

The disciples were lining up one after another, awaiting their entry into the secret realm.

Then, each disciple who entered that place all had mixed emotions when they came back out again. Some had their faces flushed red, some looked horrified, while some were so embarrassed that they would kill to take their own life. Each reaction was different.

This made the disciples who had not entered yet extremely terrified. They wondered what kind of treatment their fellow disciples had experienced there.

“What kind of sick place has Sect Leader created?”

One of the disciples said worriedly as he stared at the cave-like Phantasmal Secret Realm in front of him. He found himself gulping nervously.

Some disciples even tried to make space and sneak out of the place, but they were immediately spotted by Nangong Huang, Shang Qingxue, and a few other Daoists who stood guard there. They were the ones who secretly increased the time these disciples spent inside the secret realm.

Inside a palace.

Chu Kuangren, Elder Ruyan, and a few other people were gathered here. A giant bronze mirror was placed in front of them.

Through this bronze mirror, they were able to witness everything these disciples encountered inside the Phantasmal Secret Realm, as well as monitor the condition of their Daoist cores.

At this moment.

The bronze mirror showed a disciple who was enchanted by the female beauty. He was seen holding multiple women in his embrace, looking like he was having a whale of a time.

Nonetheless, the next second, these beautiful ladies turned into malicious skeletons and ghouls who chased after him for his life. This sudden turn of events scared that disciple shitless.

“That’s a low-grade Daoist core. Note down this disciple. Have him come to the Phantasmal Secret Realm for more training in the future,” Chu Kuangren said as his mouth twitched.

“Alright.”

Elder Ruyan held a pen and jotted it down.

They were grading the disciples’ Daoist cores based on their performances in the Phantasmal Secret Realm. It was differentiated into Low-grade, Mid-grade, High-grade, and Supreme-grade.

Right now, not over one-tenth of them had a High-grade Daoist core.

There were even less than a handful who could reach Supreme-grade.

Chu Kuangren had made up his mind that he would take whatever means to raise these disciples’ Daoist cores to High-grade. To him, it was alright to have no talent, but their Daoist cores must be trained to the highest. After all, a good Daoist core would often be the major differentiating factor for success at the later part of a cultivator’s cultivation journey.

“Sect Leader, I like you!”

A whole new illusion realm was formed inside the Phantasmal Secret Realm.

This time, it was a female disciple getting tested.

She was currently standing under a peach tree, with Chu Kuangren standing opposite her. He was smiling at her as he walked up to cradle her face.

“What a coincidence… I feel the same…”

Inside the palace.

“Low-grade Daoist core. She even harbors an adoration toward her own Sect Leader. Give her more training,” Chu Kuangren said indifferently.

Elder Ruyan looked speechless.

The few other elders beside her exchanged glances with each other too.

“How many of them have reacted like that?”

“I think this is the seventh. I have no idea how many more there are behind her. These female disciples are all fond of our Sect Leader.”

“I feel so envious.”

“What do you mean envious? You old pervert…”

The Phantasmal Secret Realm could create all kinds of illusions that targeted a cultivator’s most feared or most yearned for thing.

What a coincidence it was.

Chu Kuangren was exactly the dream lover that every female cultivator in Black Heaven Sect yearned for.

It was not a surprise that such an illusion would appear.

Right when Chu Kuangren was testing his people with the Phantasmal Secret Realm, an incredibly powerful energy wave burst from the very depths of the ocean.

“Eh? This energy…”

There was a look of surprise in Chu Kuangren’s eyes.

“Murong Xuan and Lan Yu, you guys stay here in Black Heaven Sect. I’ll go over and take a look.” Chu Kuangren relayed his message to the two new Emperors of Black Heaven Sect.

Then, his figure disappeared on the spot.

With his Conveyer Spatial Skill activated, he arrived at the sea.

There was a ball of white illumination on the surface of the sea. It emitted a surge of faint and unique energy, which Chu Kuangren was very familiar with.

It was the Divine Might!

“This is the Divine Might’s energy! What is going on?”

Chu Kuangren said in shock.

Following that, the white illumination on the surface of the sea became brighter and brighter until an incredibly majestic palace surfaced above the ocean.

The palace had white jade as its bricks, corals as its décor, and every corner was filled with countless crystals. An infinite number of Dao patterns coursed on its surface too.

Just this palace alone would be priceless for any Emperor. Each one of those gems contained an extremely strong spiritual qi.

Apart from that, a faint Divine Might energy flowed from within that palace, as though a God had once resided inside.

“Could this be the Godly Secret Realm that the Heavenly Imperials have mentioned?”

Chu Kuangren pondered as he stroked his chin.

“Yes. This has to be one of those Godly Secret Realms.”

A voice was heard from the edge of the horizon.

Heavenly Imperial Su had come.

Besides her, there were a few other Emperors too. They were all looking lustfully at that palace, which had surfaced out of nowhere.

“That’s the Blood Coral. Legend has it that this item can make an Emperor’s cultivation improve with devastating speed. This coral has gone extinct during the Immemorial Times. I can’t believe I’d be able to see one here today. This is all too astounding for me.”

“Also, look at those gems. Just from eyeballing it, I can see that a good majority of them are no worse than Emperor-grade soul emblems. Gosh, there are at least several thousand pieces of them here.”

“To have lived in such a great palace and possessed such an astonishing collection of treasures, the past owner of this palace must be at least a Greater God.”

“These Gods have really amassed quite a lot of treasures…”
