Niu Bugeng is definitely considered a freak. Although his cultivation level has reached the mid-stage of the Lord Realm, his attack power is not impressive and is even weaker compared to ordinary cultivators of the Lord Realm.
However—
His unconventional miracle technique of withstanding blows is extrely unique, practically immortal and indestructible unless soone with a Great Realm higher and extraordinary ans might kill him.
In this regard, although his talent may prevent him from walking the path of the Great Emperor ultimately, he is definitely a long-lived guy.
Throughout the journey, Hu Fei and the others continuously used Niu Bugeng as practice, although they beat him to the point of howling, this guy remained uninjured and undying.
It wasn’t until they left the range of the Forbidden Zone that Ye Fan finally felt relieved. He had an ominous feeling that sothing in the Forbidden Zone seed to have set its sights on him.
"Damn it, there’s no justice, how could sothing else co out from inside again?" Hu Fei’s voice trembled, his expression extrely unnatural.
Hmm?
This remark imdiately shocked Ye Fan and the others. They hurriedly looked back, only to see two silhouettes at the edge of the Forbidden Zone standing like two heavenly steles, tall and terrifying, strong and mighty.
One silhouette had gray hair that reached the ground, covering its body, exuding a chilling aura that gave off a very frightening sense of danger.
The other silhouette looked like a skeleton, with barely any hair left, and its eyes emitted a ghostly green light like a wolf, gazing at Ye Fan with an overwhelming pressure that made him unable to breathe.
Although it was unclear, Ye Fan instantly recognized this silhouette as the ghostly and ghastly old man he encountered in the Small Pine Forest, who had surprisingly followed him to the edge of the Forbidden Zone.
Fortunately, the two silhouettes did not pursue them further, stopping at the edge of the Forbidden Zone, looking at them indifferently. Even though they were far apart, it still caused their hearts to pound.
"Withdraw!"
Ye Fan and the others made a decisive decision. Having barely exited the Forbidden Zone, dying here would truly be regrettable.
The two silhouettes did not give chase, rely watched Ye Fan and the others depart.
Ye Fan and his group fled like the wind, only daring to stop once they reached the mining area of the Immortal Academy.
anwhile, at a hidden place within the Forbidden Zone, moonlight gathered like water into an ancient cave, creating an astonishing montum.
The vast moonlight flowed like a stream into the ancient cave, shrouding a woman as ethereal as an immortal. She cultivated using the moonlight, Dragon Energy from the earth’s veins, and the dense Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi.
At this mont, her body seed wrapped in a cocoon of light. One could barely make out a glimpse of her appearance through the haze.
Through the bright cocoon, one could vaguely discern that the woman looked around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, pure as frost, with eyebrows very similar to Ye Fan’s but lacking the strong edges and masculine energy.
Though residing within the Forbidden Zone, her actions were unimpeded as she clearly used the place for cultivation.
Soon, the cocoon ford by the moonlight enveloped her tightly, and from the outside, one could only see a glowing cocoon and nothing else.
...
Du City, small and antiquated, weathered the vicissitudes of ti, with knife and axe marks etched on its walls, showcasing the hardships this city had endured.
Ye Fan walked alone on the streets, sensing the passage of ti and the flow of years. At this mont, he had altered his appearance, ensuring that he wouldn’t be recognized.
After leaving the mining area with Hu Fei and the others, he returned to the gambling city with them and then parted ways with Hu Fei and the four others.
Niu Bugeng went off on his own — possessing the ability of transformation, he wasn’t at all worried about being identified by the Human Race.
Shi Ye used the Transmission Array Platform of the Immortal Academy in Du City to return to the academy, whereas Hu Fei and Wenren Jing disappeared soon after arriving in Du City. They might have gone to report their findings and details of the journey to their grandfathers, but Ye Fan didn’t mind.
The gambling city seed more bustling than before, with people coming and going on the streets, the flow unending, with many stone workshops earnestly pulling in custors.
Due to Ye Fan’s previous discovery of a Chaos Purple Crystal, the exclusive Immortal Material of the Great Emperor, at an exceedingly low price in the Rongsheng Gambling Stone Workshop, this small gambling city had gained fa, with many cultivators wanting to test their luck, hoping to gamble on so treasures!
By noon, Ye Fan strolled into a tavern that appeared to be doing quite well, ordered a pot of old wine and a few dishes to enjoy alone, while listening to the cultivators around him converse.
"I heard that various anomalies appeared near an Immortal Mountain close to Lingkun Ancient City of Liuyun State, and it seems an Ancient Secret Realm is about to open."
"Really? Is the news reliable? Where did it co from?"
"It is said to have inadvertently co from the mouth of a disciple of an ancient family with a long-standing heritage, and now many young strong people have rushed there."
"Strange indeed, is the world about to change? How co so many Ancient Secret Realms are about to open?"
"Perhaps there really is a world-shaking great secret surfacing; in any case, I plan to join the excitent."
"Since it was discovered by an ancient family, how could they allow us to share in the spoils? They’ve probably already blocked it off!"
"You don’t know this, this ti it’s not just that ancient family, other families know about it too. Blocked off? They’re busy scheming against each other, who cares?"
"Why haven’t the elders gone? If they got involved, there would be nothing for the young people; one Saint Lord Level strong person could wipe out all the young strong people."
"Are you mad? How could the elders possibly go? This ti with the opening of the Ancient Secret Realm, all forces unanimously agreed that the elders would not participate, leaving the chance for the young, so we still have a chance!"
"By the way, that young genius Ye Fan who caused a storm in the Southern Domain seems to have also co to the Northern Domain, do you think he’ll go?"
At the mont when Ye Fan was suddenly moved by his na being ntioned, he paid even closer attention. After all, news of his arrival in the Northern Domain could not be kept secret, but he didn’t care.
Having refined a Heaven Grade Spirit Stone, although he hadn’t broken through his realm, his strength had slightly increased.
This indirectly made his Human-Faced Geography Skill even more proficient. At this mont, he completely looked like a Northern Domain cultivator with thick eyebrows and large eyes, with an imposing and fierce appearance, so there was no worry of being recognized.
"He should probably go; there might be so strong legacy in the Ancient Secret Realm, he can’t possibly miss it!"
"This kid is just a disaster star, causing trouble wherever he goes; the strongest heirs of the Gu Family and Ling Family both suffered under his hand, even the entire Ling Family can’t do anything against him. Among the younger generation, his fa eclipses everyone!"
"In my view, apart from the Emperor’s son still in sealing, that young Ye kid can already be considered invincible among the younger generation!"
"Many Saint Child Level young strong people have gone to Lingkun Ancient City in Liuyun State, it looks like the opening of the Ancient Secret Realm will happen within the next month."
"If Ye Fan also goes, it will definitely spark intense clashes with other Saint Child Level strong people, the coming days will surely be bustling with excitent."
The discussions in the tavern continued, many regarding Ye Fan.
Ye Fan listened as he ate, until most custors had left before settling the bill and leaving.
From the surrounding cultivators’ casual conversations, he gathered much useful information; the summary can be boiled down to two points.
First, outside Lingkun Ancient City in Liuyun State, an anomaly appeared in the Immortal Mountain, indicating that an Ancient Secret Realm might soon open.
This information seems very reliable; it’s unlikely that so many people would all lie, so the existence of an Ancient Secret Realm is almost certain. Even if there isn’t one, there will surely be other treasures erging.
Second, many Holy Lands and families of ancient inheritance, including so Wu Shang Sect mbers, have Saint Child Level strong people participating, assuring a dragon and tiger battle among the young strong people once the Secret Realm opens.
This battle can be considered a qualification for the future Emperor Road; only those who erge victorious in this clash will qualify for the Emperor Road.
After returning to the Cultivation World’s office in Du City, the coordinator suddenly brought him a ssage directly from the Dean Old Immortal at the Immortal Academy, instructing Ye Fan to remain training in the Northern Domain, without returning to the Academy.
Not only Ye Fan, but the Academy’s top ten top disciples were all sent out, allowing them to grow through experience.
According to the Old Immortal, flowers in a greenhouse can never withstand harsh winds; only those who survive brutal competition have the true qualification to aspire to the Emperor Road.
Upon receiving this news, Ye Fan was not surprised. He had chosen to stay in the Northern Domain for one reason: to follow in the footsteps of the first generation Earth Master and obtain his legacy; also, he felt there was not much left to gain at the Academy.
Among his peers, he had almost achieved invincibility, and his future opponents would only grow stronger; only through the forge of life and death, blood and fire, could he beco stronger.
After all, the path of the Ancient Emperor was filled with battles, accumulating rich experience and growing step by step through combat.
Ye Fan knew very well that the agreed rule in the Cultivation World that the old generation must not intervene in or suppress the young geniuses of the Human Race was just empty words.
If there weren’t strong supervision, so ancient families could send out elder strong people, secretly killing a few young geniuses without breaking a sweat.
With the elders’ ans and Divine Skills, erasing traces without being detected is all too easy.
Therefore, in the Northern Domain, once discovered, one’s whereabouts beco extrely dangerous, but however dangerous it may be, he must endure it; this is the price of becoming stronger.
"Liuyun State, Lingkun Ancient City, Immortal Mountain, Ancient Secret Realm! I must see for myself what kind of legacy the ancients have left us!"
Ye Fan looked towards the direction of Lingkun Ancient City and decided to go see for himself.
