The time for the secret realm to be completely closed is getting closer and closer. Ximen Changqing must speed up and collect more rare resources before the secret realm is closed.
The current harvest is already very good, but he still hopes to gain more.
So, he led his immortal pets and continued to explore the depths of the secret realm. Bee colonies and ant colonies continued to be lost in the process of exploration.
This loss seems a bit insignificant in the face of the huge number. It is very cost-effective to lose a small number of fairy bees and fairy ants in exchange for rare resources.
As you get closer and closer to the center of the secret realm, the ferocious beasts you encounter become more powerful, and even ferocious beasts of the Fairy Queen stage appear.
This put Ximen Changqing under tremendous pressure.
When encountering a too powerful beast, you have to take a detour to avoid suffering too much losses.
Of course, ant colonies will also be allowed to explore areas guarded by powerful ferocious beasts. If there are enough resources to attract them, they will have to fight for it.
If it is a less important resource or an immortal plant that you already have, then don't provoke the beast.
Many times, the treasures guarded by the ferocious beasts were extremely rare immortal plants, but he already had them in the Nine Heavens Space, so they seemed irrelevant.
In order to reach the core of the secret realm as soon as possible, the most urgent thing is to find ways to bypass these strongholds and reach the core area of the secret realm as soon as possible.
"Master, there is a huge lake ahead. There are dozens of Immortal Emperor ferocious beasts just at a glance. There must be more that are not found. This is too scary."
Xiaobing immediately informed his master of the situation detected by his bee swarm.
"It's so scary. Have we reached the core of the secret realm?"
Ximen Changqing has some guesses.
If this lake is really the core of the secret realm and is guarded by so many Immortal Emperor ferocious beasts, then there must be very rare treasures here.
But there were too many ferocious beasts in the Immortal Emperor, and it would be very troublesome to deal with them, which gave him a headache.
"Void baby, go and investigate and see how big this lake is, how many Immortal Emperor ferocious beasts are in it, and how powerful it is!"
Ximen Changqing gave orders to his immortal pets.
Because these Immortal Emperor ferocious beasts are too powerful, when the swarm is exploring, they will be intimidated by the Immortal Emperor's power and unable to explore further, or even die directly.
The situation inside the lake can only be explored by the Void Baby. It is a big difference and does not affect the movement. There will be no situation where it cannot move.
Half a day later, Void Baby returned and reported the situation of the lake seriously.
This lake is very large, and there are no less than five hundred Immortal Emperor ferocious beasts in it, distributed in different areas. The strongest ferocious beast has reached the Immortal Emperor's perfect cultivation level, and is very terrifying.
All the Immortal Emperor ferocious beasts I encountered before combined are not as scary as the Immortal Emperor ferocious beast here.
Moreover, these Immortal Emperor ferocious beasts are all water-type ferocious beasts. This is a lake, and they are very good at fighting water-type ferocious beasts.
Provoking these ferocious beasts in the lake is no different than seeking death.
Due to limited time, Void Baby did not find any treasures. Instead, he discovered an island in the middle of the lake and a ruins on the island.
"The ferocious beasts in the lake are too strong and we cannot provoke them, but there may be incredible treasures in the ruins on the island. We must go in and explore. It's up to you."
Ximen Changqing gathered his bee swarms and ant swarms, all entered the Nine Heavens Space, and let the Void Baby lead the way to the island, preparing to explore the ruins.
There are many Immortal Emperor ferocious beasts in the lake, but there is not a single ferocious beast on the island.
After arriving at the island, Ximen Changqing came out of the Nine Heavens Space and explored the island, but found no valuable treasures.
"There is a barrier on the island that can block the exploration and entry of ferocious beasts. No wonder there are no ferocious beasts!"
Standing on the island, Ximen Changqing soon discovered something and understood why there were no ferocious beasts on the island.
Those ferocious beasts cannot enter the island at all and can only swim in the lake.
"Master, there are ruins in front of you, and the writing on it is no longer legible."
Void Baby pointed into the distance with a serious look on his face.
"Let's go to the ruins!"
The ruins are the core of the secret realm, and there will definitely be treasures in them. At least, these are the ruins of the human race, and there may be many secrets that can be discovered.
"Lie Yang Mansion! Go in and take a look!"
On the lintel of the ruins, you can roughly recognize three characters.
"call……"
"Master, this door cannot be pushed open!"
Several immortal pets worked hard together, but they couldn't push the door of the cave open.
"There may be a mechanism to open the door. Let's search carefully!" Ximen Changqing reminded, and personally searched near the gate.
Soon, they found the mechanism that opened the door. They just turned the mechanism slightly, and the huge gate of the ruins opened.
"Be careful!"
Ximen Changqing sacrificed eighteen Immortal Emperor puppets and let the puppets lead the way, while he and his immortal pets followed behind.
In this way, once they are attacked, the puppet can block them in front to prevent them from being injured.
However, his worries were unnecessary. There was no danger in the ruins, not at all.
Not far along the passage, we came to an underground hall, which was very clean and spotless.
The space was very bright and seemed to be inhabited. However, there was no one inside and no skeleton could be seen.
All that can be seen is a statue in the hall with a lot of words on it.
"The Lieyang Immortal Emperor, the Immortal Emperor has perfected his cultivation and studied under the Master of Tongtian..."
After reading the words on the statue, Ximen Changqing was shocked.
The master of Lieyang Immortal Emperor is actually a master in the Domination Realm. This is so shocking. There is no Domination Realm in the entire Immortal World, not even among all races.
However, the era when Emperor Lieyang lived was already hundreds of millions of years ago. The time was really too long, and no master was born after that.
There is a lot of information on the statue, and it is also very shocking.
According to Lieyang Immortal Emperor, hundreds of millions of years ago, the fairy world was facing the trend of collapse. Once the fairy world collapsed, all living things would be destroyed.
In order to save the Immortal World that was about to collapse, the master of the Lieyang Immortal Emperor joined forces with several foreign masters and finally prevented the collapse of the Immortal World at the cost of sacrificing themselves.
However, this is only temporary. After hundreds of millions of years, the fairy world will still collapse. If no way to deal with it can be found, the fairy world will eventually be destroyed.
This news is very explosive, and most of the monks in the immortal world are not aware of it, but those super sects with long inheritance must know the news.
Of course, it is only limited to the group of big guys with the highest cultivation level. Ordinary disciples are not qualified to know, and it is useless to know.
Those who can change the fate of destruction in the fairy world are destined to be only the strong, while the weak can only passively accept their fate and can do nothing.
"The fairy world will eventually be destroyed. What's the use of immortals having infinite lifespan? It's not that it will be destroyed along with it."
After reading the content on the statue, Ximen Changqing felt bad, and his desire to become stronger became even stronger.
Many masters sacrificed themselves, which only temporarily prevented the destruction of the fairy world. If the collapse trend occurs again, how should we deal with it?
In today's fairy world, there is no one who dominates. I'm afraid I can only passively accept my fate!
"Is there a master who is hiding? After all, the way to save the fairy world is to sacrifice yourself. This is too cruel."
Ximen Changqing made some guesses.
No matter what, the news that the fairy world will be destroyed is not a good thing for him.
There is hope for the Ximen family to rise, but they have to face the fate of the destruction of the fairy world. This is too painful.
Of course, even if the fairy world is destroyed, it will not happen overnight. There is a process. This process is relatively long, at least in units of hundreds of millions of years.
Therefore, don't worry too much for the time being. When your strength improves, you will naturally find a way to deal with it.
But this fact still weighed on Ximen Changqing's heart, making him feel a little heavy.
"Master, many treasures were found in the room next to them. However, these treasures are protected by restrictions and need to be broken one by one."
Huo Wa came over and reported.
"I understand, you all have to break the ban and get all the treasures. Since you are here, you will naturally take away all the treasures left here."
Ximen Changqing saluted the statue and gave orders to his immortal pets.
After learning about the explosion, Ximen Changqing couldn't help but lament the fate of Lieyang Immortal Emperor.
This Lieyang Immortal Emperor was extremely talented and a good candidate for cultivation. After entering the sect, he was accepted by the master who controlled cultivation.
With a master taking care of him, Immortal Emperor Lieyang's life is naturally very nourishing. All monks must respect him respectfully when they see him.
Even the powerful Immortal Emperors are on equal terms with Lieyang Immortal Emperor and never dare to show off the airs of their seniors.
When Master was still alive, Immortal Emperor Lieyang was at the peak of his life. Wherever he met, he met good people and friends, and everyone greeted him with a smile.
But with the sacrifice of the master, everything changed. The Immortal Emperor elders in the sect were obviously very cold towards him and regarded him as a junior.
The cultivation resources he could obtain were significantly reduced, and the missing part was naturally accepted by the elders of the Immortal Emperor.
The most frightening thing is that the sect has lost its dominant leader and its huge high-quality industry has aroused the jealousy of other forces.
In less than a hundred years, hundreds of Immortal Emperor forces from all races launched a siege on the sect of Lieyang Immortal Emperor.
At first, when the Overlord was alive, these Immortal Emperor forces would never dare to do so, but without the Overlord, hundreds of Immortal Emperor forces would have the courage to do so.
The ants will bite the elephant to death. No matter how strong the sect of Lieyang Immortal Emperor is, it cannot withstand the siege of hundreds of Immortal Emperor forces.
In the end, the sect's main altar was breached, most of the Immortal Emperor elders died, most of the remaining ones surrendered, and a few escaped.
Immortal Emperor Lieyang was targeted by a foreign Immortal Emperor and suffered serious injuries. However, he escaped from the main altar with the treasure given by his master, and finally lived a secluded life in a secluded place.
This place is the Secret Realm of Star Reaching, or it can also be called the Secret Realm of Ten Thousand Swords. This secret realm is the secret treasure that was refined by the master of Lieyang Immortal Emperor’s master.
It's just that his injuries were too serious. No matter how he treated him, he couldn't recover. In the end, he couldn't bear the pain and died in this secret place.
Before the end of the war, he left a statue of himself and an epitaph. If future generations discover his statue, they can at least understand his past.
"The mastermind sacrificed himself to save the immortal world that was about to be destroyed, but his sect was quickly destroyed by a group of immortal emperor sects. This is really ironic!
If this big boss is still alive and knows about this, I wonder if he will regret his decision! "
"No, the records of Lieyang Immortal Emperor may not necessarily be true and reliable. Maybe several masters overestimated their own strength and eventually passively sacrificed themselves. This is also possible."
Ximen Changqing soon thought of a new possibility.
Maybe it was just a misunderstanding that the mastermind risked his life to save the fairy world, but for him to stand up and do this, it is already very worthy of recognition.
Just like many heroes who sacrifice themselves to save others, their starting point is purely to save others, and they do not intend to abandon themselves. It is just that the danger exceeds their own expectations. After saving others, they are no longer able to protect themselves.
The incident of Lieyang Immortal Emperor further illustrates the importance of strength. A dominant force has a huge industry, but as long as this ruler falls, the huge industry will inevitably be robbed.
Wealth is always obtained by those with strength. Once you lose your strength, the huge wealth gained will naturally be robbed.
Whether it is the fairy world or the lower world, it is the same everywhere. As long as the top layer of a force is gone, it will inevitably be invaded.
In order to avoid invasion, some forces have lost their top elders and will pretend that the elders are still there, thus deterring other forces from taking rash actions.
A smarter approach is to spit out the resources in hand to preserve yourself.
However, no one is willing to spit out the wealth they have gained, so this method is difficult to implement.
Today, the Ximen family already has a lot of wealth. In order to maintain this wealth, the strength of the clan must be improved.
Only with the birth of a large number of high-level tribesmen can the acquired industry be preserved.
For example, the western region of Linglong Immortal Territory is too vast and has too many resources, while the Ximen family currently has too few high-level clansmen.
If it weren't for Ximen Changqing's thunderous tactics that severely damaged the eighteen Immortal King forces in the central part of the Immortal Domain, it is estimated that the industry in the west would have been divided up by countless forces.
But he alone cannot do it. If he wants to hold on to such a large area of industry, the Ximen family must give birth to a large number of immortal kings.
During this trip to the secret realm, the Star Picking Vine has been obtained and the last kind of fairy grass has been replenished, allowing the Ximen family to refine Wang Yuandan on a large scale.
I believe that within a hundred years, the number of Immortal Kings in the Ximen family will reach a very terrifying level. With a large number of Immortal Kings in the Ximen family, there should be no problem for the Ximen family to maintain their property in the western part of the Linglong Immortal Territory.
In addition, Ximen Changqing also enslaved two Immortal King elders from the Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Sect this time, so that the Ximen family can better penetrate the Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Sect.
This is an Immortal Emperor-level sect. Early penetration will make it easier to finally completely control this sect and serve the rise of the Ximen family.
"Master, you have broken through a restriction and obtained a top-grade flying sword from the Immortal Emperor!"
Huo Wa handed a blazing red flying sword to Ximen Changqing.
