TL: Etude
Originally, Harmon had obtained all the resources of a secret realm. Unfortunately, he had exhausted most of these resources, which was why he sought a second secret realm.
Even so, Harmon had still left behind so valuable items.
“Three pieces of Chaos Spiritual Treasures, thirty bottles of elixirs, two hundred and three pieces of Chaos Black Crystals, twenty-four talismans…”
All the miscellaneous items combined were roughly equivalent to four or five top-tier supre treasures.
Regrettably, the three Chaos Spiritual Treasures were damaged during his battle with Ye Tian. Ye Tian’s Prival Slash had caused the damage, much to Ye Tian’s regret.
But without going all out, he couldn’t have killed Harmon.
Among these items, what interested Ye Tian the most were the talismans.
During their fight, Harmon had used talismans against him. These talismans were also obtained from the secret realm. However, the offensive and speed talismans had been used up, leaving only the rare, special talismans.
There were special talismans that could sever karmic fate, ones for detecting enemies, and others for concealing aura and strength.
These talismans were not very useful in battle, so Harmon hadn’t used them, which worked to Ye Tian’s advantage.
“Harmon had almost exhausted his resources, using up many items, yet he still had so many good things left. If it were an intact secret realm, how many resources and treasures would there be!”
Just thinking about it made Ye Tian very excited.
In the underground space of the Kunlun Mountains, Ye Tian had entered and taken out a compass. This compass, which belonged to Harmon, could sense the presence of a secret realm, but its range was limited. If the secret realm was too far away, it couldn’t be detected.
At this mont, the compass accurately pointed to the entrance of the secret realm.
Confirming the exact location of the entrance spared Ye Tian a lot of trouble. Otherwise, he would have had to rely on Harmon’s thod to repeatedly confirm the entrance, wasting a lot of ti.
With the entrance accurately detected, the next step was to decipher the secret realm’s formation. Harmon’s mory contained the thod to decipher it, as it wasn’t a core secret. Apparently, Harmon hadn’t sworn to keep this part secret, so the mory remained.
Otherwise, Ye Tian could only look at this secret realm without being able to enter.
Clearly, the Hidden God Organization hadn’t anticipated Harmon’s premature demise, nor that his soul would be absorbed and his mories extracted.
“Deciphering the formation will take so ti. Harmon was in the process of deciphering it before I interrupted him. At the ti, I wondered why he was sitting there. It turns out he was deciphering the secret realm’s formation.”
Ye Tian wasn’t worried about being disturbed. This was human territory, and it was unlikely anyone would trouble him.
Thus, Ye Tian began to use his soul power to emit a peculiar wave, sensing the secret realm’s formation.
Boom!!!! A powerful array appeared in the depths of the void, touching Ye Tian’s soul perception.
At this mont, Ye Tian truly witnessed the power of the secret realm’s formation.
“What a profound formation. Even Supres couldn’t set this up, and it has the effect of shielding the universe’s origin. The power of the universe’s origin can’t penetrate it!”
Ye Tian marveled.
He didn’t waste ti and imdiately began to decipher it.
Deciphering involved using his soul to emit a set of rules and codes, breaking a gap in the secret realm’s formation to form an array, allowing him to enter the secret realm.
This process required several hours.
During these hours, Ye Tian focused on deciphering, undisturbed by anyone.
Soon, the deciphering succeeded.
A spatial rift appeared! Swoosh! Ye Tian flew through it, entering the secret realm.
The mont Ye Tian entered, he felt an incredibly dense Chaos Yuan Qi, even purer than the Chaos Yuan Qi of the small chaotic world he had encountered before.
“If an ordinary God level cultivator were to cultivate here, as long as their talent isn’t poor, they could quickly beco Planetary System level or even Galaxy level!”
Ye Tian pondered quietly. This secret realm wasn’t very large; its primary purpose was to store so resources. There was no need to make it too big, as the larger the secret realm, the harder it would be to hide.
At that mont, Ye Tian’s divine sense swept across the area, sensing a grand hall. The entire secret realm was under his perception.
Ye Tian habitually investigated the secret realm, finding no signs of life or any dangers.
Thus, Ye Tian walked towards the grand hall.
“From Harmon’s mory, the secret realm wasn’t particularly dangerous. However, there were several barriers inside the hall. Only those with corresponding strength could obtain the treasures. If one’s strength was inadequate, it would be impossible to acquire them.”
Ye Tian was very confident in his strength, and the barriers in the secret realm weren’t particularly powerful.
According to Harmon’s mory, in the first secret realm, Harmon had broken through all the barriers except for the most core one.
Inside the grand hall, there were many chambers, each with a barrier. Breaking the barrier would allow access to the treasures within.
Ye Tian arrived at the first chamber and easily broke through its barrier.
However, upon entering the chamber, Ye Tian was quite disappointed. While there were plenty of resources, most were foundational, beneficial for those below the Emperor level or at the God level, but of little use to Ye Tian.
The only thing that piqued Ye Tian’s interest was a few cultivation techniques and secret skills, which he could use for reference, though their value was limited.
Boom! Boom! Boom! One by one, the chambers were broken open by Ye Tian, and he took the items inside. Soon, Ye Tian reached a more central area, where the barriers required dominator-level strength to break through.
These chambers began to contain so formidable talismans, spiritual treasures comparable to supre treasures, and so precious herbs.
“Only three chambers left!”
Ye Tian stared at the three chambers, feeling a bit excited.
The barrier of the most important chamber was incredibly strong, even Harmon couldn’t break it. Ye Tian didn’t know if he could break it either, but he was confident about the other two chambers.
Slash! Slash! Slash! Ye Tian slashed three tis in succession, finally breaking the barrier of the left chamber and entering it.
“Talisman, two pieces of Chaos Spiritual Treasures, fifteen pieces of Chaos Black Crystals, three cultivation techniques and secret skills… Hmm, what’s this?”
Ye Tian’s gaze focused on one of the treasures, specifically a fruit.
This fruit contained imnse power, even making Ye Tian feel a slight pressure. As he approached it, he felt his blood surging.
“Heavenly Profound Fruit, it must be the Heavenly Profound Fruit.”
Harmon had ntioned that it was difficult to reach the sixth-tier life level with the resources of this universe alone. However, Harmon managed to reach the sixth-tier life level within ten thousand years, thanks to obtaining a Heavenly Profound Fruit.
Each secret realm’s treasures varied, and Ye Tian hadn’t expected this secret realm to also have a Heavenly Profound Fruit.
Ye Tian was thrilled.
The Heavenly Profound Fruit could not only quickly elevate a low-level cultivator to the peak of the sixth-tier life level, but it also had significant effects on seventh-tier life levels.
For instance, Ye Tian was currently at the mid-stage of the seventh-tier. If he were to cultivate slowly, he didn’t know when he would reach the late-stage of the seventh-tier.
But this Heavenly Profound Fruit had the potential to break his bottleneck, allowing him to reach the late-stage of the seventh-tier life level.
Once his life level advanced, his strength would skyrocket. Most importantly, the Heavenly Profound Fruit could only be consud once in a lifeti, making it extrely rare even in the chaos. The Hidden God Organization had indeed invested heavily, consuming countless resources for this plan.
“I’ll cultivate in this chamber for now. Anyway, a secret realm only allows one person to enter at a ti. Since I’ve occupied this secret realm, even if other reincarnators from the Hidden God Organization co nearby, they won’t be able to sense it.” Ye Tian thought.
Thus, for him, this secret realm had beco the safest cultivation place in the universe, and it could even serve as a secret base in the future.
He felt fortunate that he had dealt with Harmon before he could enter the secret realm. Otherwise, once Harmon had entered, Ye Tian wouldn’t have been able to do anything against him.
In retrospect, Harmon’s death was due to his own carelessness; otherwise, Ye Tian wouldn’t have been able to kill him at all.
