"What's this?"
Lu Qing's hand froze, and he abruptly turned his head to look into the depths of the Ten Thousand Mountains.
He sensed a very strong spatial fluctuation coming from that direction.
"Aqing, what's that?"
Xiao Li also sensed the fluctuation and asked in a panic.
Possessing spatial abilities, it was even more sensitive to this fluctuation than Lu Qing.
The powerful spatial fluctuations made it somewhat uneasy.
"It's a secret realm!"
At this moment, Yan's figure appeared beside Lu Qing, looking solemnly towards the depths of the Ten Thousand Mountains.
"This is a sign that the secret realm is about to open!"
"A secret realm?" Lu Qing was taken aback. "A secret realm could exist in such a remote place as the Ten Thousand Mountains?"
"Of course, the appearance of secret realms is always unpredictable; they can be born anywhere."
There have been many such examples in the ancient times of cultivating immortality.
In some barren lands, entrances to secret realms can also appear.
However, relatively speaking, the Central Plains, being the most prosperous region, has a higher probability of containing secret realms.
"Yan" explained to Lu Qing.
"I see." Lu Qing suddenly realized.
Although he obtained many cultivation techniques from the Li Huo Sect's inheritance, he didn't know anything about such cultivation secrets.
"Young master, what do you plan to do? Judging from the spatial fluctuations, the secret realm that has appeared this time is not small; it is at least a medium-sized secret realm or above, which is an extremely rare opportunity."
Lu Qing hesitated for a moment, then said, "Let's go take a look."
Since it was an opportunity, Lu Qing naturally wouldn't let it slip by.
More importantly, he could vaguely sense a strong attraction emanating from it.
An intuition told him that this suddenly appearing secret realm should be of great benefit to him.
Immediately, he released the golden flying boat, picked up Xiao Li, and soared into the air, transforming into a golden streak of light as he flew deep into the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
Deep within the Ten Thousand Mountains, though the location emanating spatial fluctuations was far away, the golden flying boat was still moving at an extremely fast speed.
As the spatial fluctuations he sensed grew stronger, Lu Qing soon arrived at a valley and saw the source of the fluctuations.
Within the valley, a black vortex several meters in size was slowly swirling, emanating astonishing spatial fluctuations.
The allure that made Lu Qing's heart flutter emanated from the vortex.
But he also sensed that the area around the vortex was now filled with a dangerous atmosphere.
"This is troublesome. The entrance to this secret realm is still in the process of being built and has not been fully opened yet."
Yan's figure appeared beside Lu Qing.
"In the works?"
Lu Qing immediately activated his supernatural ability and looked towards the black vortex.
Soon, several notes floated out from the vortex.
【Gate to the Secret Realm: A spatial gate derived from the Secret Realm.】
【Legend has it that secret realms often harbor wondrous treasures, making them coveted places for all.】
【The gate to this secret realm is not yet fully developed, and the space is extremely unstable. Entering it by mistake could result in being swept into spatial turbulence. Please be extremely careful.】
...
"As expected, it's not fully brewing yet."
After reading the message that floated out of the black vortex, Lu Qing understood.
But now he knew he was in trouble.
The fluctuations emanating from this secret realm gate are too intense; their range is likely hundreds of miles away, and they cannot be hidden from others at all.
In that case, it won't be long before someone comes to check.
The others were fine, but what Lu Qing was most worried about was whether those two mysterious people who seemed to be from outer space would come.
After all, according to the information provided by Lin Zhirui, the two mysterious people seemed to be extremely interested in strange spaces such as secret realms.
In recent days, the other party has completely occupied those few secluded secret realms and blessed lands in Zhongzhou, and will not allow anyone else to touch them.
"Young master, judging from the state of the entrance to the secret realm, it will probably take at least several more days for it to be fully stabilized."
This opportunity is probably not easy to come by.
"Yan" also saw the problem and said with some concern.
"Let's see how things go. Although the spatial fluctuations at the entrance to this secret realm are significant, the Hundred Thousand Mountains are remote enough that it won't be easily detected so quickly."
As long as we can enter the secret realm before others, the opportunity will still be ours.
Lu Qing said calmly.
Feeling the pull emanating from the black vortex, he had already decided that he was determined to seize the opportunities within this secret realm.
He had a premonition that the opportunities in this secret realm would be extremely important to him.
Having made his decision, Lu Qing casually flicked out a jade talisman, which landed in an inconspicuous spot in the valley.
Then he steered the small golden boat back the way he came.
Since the entrance to the secret realm won't be stable for several more days, he can take this opportunity to make some preparations.
The golden boat skimmed across the sky, and when it was halfway back, Lu Qing's heart stirred, and he looked down.
Then you can see a figure moving quickly through the dense forest below.
Its direction of progress is precisely where the gate to the secret realm is located.
"Senior Wei!"
Lu Qing put away the golden boat and quickly descended, blocking the person's path.
Wei Shanhai was startled at first, but breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that it was Lu Qing.
"So it's Young Master Lu. You sensed this fluctuation as well?"
Wei Shanhai saw the direction Lu Qing had come from and immediately understood.
"I just came back from there." Lu Qing didn't deny it. "Senior Wei, are you heading there?"
“Indeed.” Wei Shanhai nodded. “Young Master Lu, with such a massive fluctuation, has something happened over there?”
"An entrance to a secret realm has appeared over there, but it is currently extremely unstable and cannot be approached. It is estimated that we will have to wait several days before we can enter."
Lu Qing did not hide anything and explained the situation directly.
"Entrance to the secret realm!"
Upon hearing this, Wei Shanhai was immediately taken aback.
He certainly knew what the entrance to the secret realm was. Several had appeared in the Central Continent recently, which directly triggered a great war among many sects, resulting in many deaths and injuries.
"Young Master Lu, the entrance to the secret realm has actually appeared in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. Before long, this place will probably become a place of trouble."
Upon learning that the source of the disturbance was actually the entrance to the secret realm, Wei Shanhai felt no joy, but rather became worried.
The events that have occurred in the outside world these days demonstrate that the appearance of secret realms often signifies conflict and slaughter.
Moreover, the two mysterious experts that Lin Zhirui mentioned not long ago also seemed to be particularly interested in the secret realm.
“I know, so we need to prepare in advance. Senior Wei, are you still going?” Lu Qing asked.
"No need. Since it's the entrance to a secret realm, I'd rather not participate."
Wei Shanhai shook his head directly.
He is very self-aware.
The secret realm is something that someone as lowly as him at the Innate Realm cannot possibly attain.
One wrong move and you could very well perish in it.
Now that he has the cultivation techniques given to him by Lu Qing, he has gained a lot of insights from studying them over the past few days and has already figured out the mystery of transforming his own true qi into spiritual power.
As long as one diligently cultivates in the future, one may well be able to reach the Foundation Establishment stage and greatly increase one's lifespan.
Given the prospect of achieving immortality, Wei Shanhai was unwilling to risk his life and get involved in the battles within that secret realm.
He came here simply because he happened to be cultivating in the mountains and sensed that strange fluctuation. He thought it was some kind of opportunity and came to take a look.
"In that case, Senior Wei, let's go back first."
This matter is of great importance; we still need to discuss how to handle it.
