Chapter 1716: Chapter 1584: Secret Realm Trial Arena
In the Dong Mansion of the Emperor’s Secret Realm, Ye Fan was fully focused on charging into the Lord Realm, with the Divine Power inside him nearly boiling. Time and again, he attempted and failed, unable to take that crucial step forward.
What is the Lord Realm?
It is a step beyond the Divine Power Realm, where one forms their own Domain. Within one’s own Domain, one is the true god, controlling all elements, and even having the ability to control the opponent’s body.
Ye Fan kept trying but kept failing. He felt something was missing, yet he had no clue what it was.
"Ah..."
After experiencing ninety-nine failures, Ye Fan became furious. He forcefully externalized his Divine Power and spiritual power, attempting to form his own Domain.
"Swish!"
Sure enough, a vast purple Domain appeared around Ye Fan, and he discovered that he could indeed control everything within this Domain.
"Did I succeed?"
Just as the thought crossed Ye Fan’s mind, his body suddenly exploded, sending purple blood and flesh flying everywhere.
"Ah..."
Ye Fan let out a heartbreaking scream, then fell silent as if he had died.
With his body shattered into pieces, such injuries would be fatal to anyone, especially since Ye Fan had also externalized his Divine Soul.
The explosion of Divine Power, Divine Soul, Thunder Power, and Tao Marks was something even a true cultivator at the Lord Realm could not withstand.
No one knew how much time had passed before Ye Fan’s scattered flesh and blood began to wriggle slowly.
After nearly four hours, the blood and flesh finally coagulated into a lump, and Ye Fan’s Divine Soul awakened.
"It seems I went down a wrong path. The Lord Realm should not be like this."
Ye Fan sighed inwardly.
This was indeed a harsh lesson, wanting instant success, but reality gave him an unforgettable lesson. It truly was that there are no shortcuts in cultivation!
"Phoenix Nirvana Technique, Phoenix Immortal, Nirvana Rebirth!"
Ye Fan’s Divine Soul silently recited these words, and then the flesh and blood began to reverse, starting the reconstruction of his body.
Failing to break through to the Lord Realm this time had inflicted severe damage on him. Not only was his body shattered, but his Divine Soul was also severely injured.
It was a classic case of losing more than gaining.
The Phoenix Nirvana Technique is a heaven-defying secret technique for restoring the body. As long as the Divine Soul is not dead and there is even one drop of Essence Blood, it can rapidly recover.
However, this time, not only did Ye Fan’s body explode, breaking into pieces, but his Divine Soul was also severely injured, so recovery was naturally not as quick as before.
No one knew how much time had passed before Ye Fan finally completed rebuilding his body, appearing somewhat listless, but he hadn’t truly harmed his Primordial core.
Taking a step forward, Ye Fan entered the Virtual Space. He knew that to completely return to his previous peak state might take too long, and he didn’t have much time to waste, so recovering in the Virtual Space was the best choice.
He took out all his possessions, and Ye Fan was almost surrounded by Spirit Stones and various Spiritual Medicines, continuously refining, as the rich Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi formed a cocoon around him.
From the outside, Ye Fan seemed like a giant cocoon, his whole body glimmering with purple-golden light, as Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi continually flowed into his body through breathing and pores, circulating along his meridians in a Grand Circulation, before settling back in the Dantian.
Of course, during the cultivation process, the Holy Embryo Illusion in his meridians and acupoints also intercepts a lot, slowly repairing his damaged body tissues.
This is a long process, and no one knew how much time had passed before Ye Fan’s whole body’s blood and qi surged like a dragon, shooting out from the top of the skull, and as he opened his eyes, two dragon-shaped Divine Radiance shot out.
His body and Divine Soul finally restored to their peak state, still at the Peak of the Divine Power Realm, just one step away from completely stepping into the Lord Realm.
However—
He dared not try easily anymore, as even his abnormal physique could not withstand such consumption and damage. A few more attempts could cost him his life.
"Luckily, there’s the Virtual Space to save time, or with this alone, it might be difficult to fully recover even in half a month."
Ye Fan muttered to himself in relief while stepping out of the Virtual Space.
He realized he had entered a misconception, that the Lord Realm was not just about having enough strength to cross that threshold, but also needed comprehension of the essence and laws of Elemental Power.
However, for now, he didn’t want to go to the Elemental Ocean, but instead wanted to go to the Trial Arena to test his strength and polish his combat skills and abilities.
Think and act swiftly, never procrastinate!
Removing the rune from the cave entrance, Ye Fan stood at the entrance, gazing out, and could see most of the Emperor’s Secret Realm at a glance.
The Trial Arena is one of the three major areas of the Emperor’s Secret Realm, covering a very large area, left by ancient Great Emperors for the Human Race to practice, a shared wealth of humanity.
However, now this wealth is monopolized by the Imperial Academy. Unless one is a disciple of the Imperial Academy, others have no qualification to enter here for trials.
Even if one is a disciple of the Imperial Academy, unless particularly outstanding, or someone from the Di Clan, or someone who made great contributions to the Imperial Academy, it’s hard to get the qualification to cultivate here.
This time, if it weren’t for the impending emergence of the Demon Clan, and the need for the strongest young generation of the Human Race to counter the powerful Demon Clan, Seng Dao Yan probably wouldn’t have opened this Secret Realm.
Ye Fan moved with great speed, and in a flash of thought, he appeared outside the Trial Arena.
