Chapter 2673 Entering the Secret Realm

Several other Nascent Soul stage cultivators nearby were completely immobilized under the suppression of Sun Yi's domain. With a casual wave of his hand, Sun Yi sealed them with his powerful magic.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Wuji, Li Yu, and Zhao Cheng couldn't help but swallow hard.

Although they had already witnessed Sun Yi's terrifying strength, they were still very shocked to see the terrifying strength Sun Yi displayed at this moment.

The cultivator at the Great Perfection of the Void Refinement stage, who was imprisoned, never expected that he would be so easily imprisoned by a cultivator at the Early Stage of the Void Refinement stage.

"Damn it! How dare you lay a hand on me? Do you even know who I am?"

"I am a steward under Prince Ning of the Azure Sky Immortal Kingdom. If you dare to lay a hand on me, you are going against Prince Ning, and he will certainly not let you off."

"Stop yelling. Your master, Prince Ning, has already been killed. No matter how loud you yell, it won't make a difference." Sun Yi glanced at the other party indifferently.

From Ning Wang's memories, we learned that this cultivator at the Great Perfection of the Void Refinement stage was named Xue Heng. He was Ning Wang's confidant and was responsible for guarding this secret realm.

"Impossible!" Xue Heng's pupils shrank.

Sun Yi ignored him and flew directly to the sky above the island. He cast a spell with both hands towards the island, and the white mist that had enveloped the island gradually dissipated, revealing a huge villa.

This island is quite large, with a lake in the center. The villa is built near the lake, and the environment looks quite nice.

There is only one fourth-order spiritual vein on the entire island, and it doesn't seem to have anything special about it.

The villa and the lake were previously shrouded in a formation, but Sun Yi has now broken it.

A faint spatial fluctuation emanated from the shimmering lake bottom. The entrance to this secret realm was located at the bottom of the lake, which ordinary cultivators could not sense. However, Sun Yi, who controlled the fundamental laws of space, could clearly feel the spatial fluctuations at the bottom of the lake.

Sun Yi teleported to the sky above the lake, his right hand wreathed in silver light as he pointed at the lake.

A beam of silver light shot into the lake, and the next moment a whirlpool appeared on the surface of the lake. The whirlpool grew larger and larger, and strong spatial fluctuations emanated from it.

"Damn it, how did you know there was a secret realm here?" Xue Heng stared wide-eyed, looking at everything in disbelief.

Sun Yi ignored him completely and continued to use his spatial power to expand the entrance. Soon, a huge vortex appeared in the lake.

The bottom of this whirlpool was not the lake bottom, but a bright exit appeared, through which a secret realm could be seen.

"The secret realm has been opened, let's go in." Sun Yi called out, and Zhang Wuji and the others immediately steered their flying boat into the secret realm along the whirlpool.

Finally, Sun Yi also piloted the flying warship into the vortex. Soon they emerged from another vortex and entered the secret realm space.

Within this secret realm, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was extremely rich, and the space was relatively stable. Below was a boundless ocean, dotted with numerous islands.

At this moment, dozens of flying boats were hovering above the sea, and the eyes of countless cultivators on the flying boats were fixed on the islands in the distance.

Sensing the rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the air, the cultivators on the flying boat all showed excited expressions.

"What a rich aura of heaven and earth!"

"Yes, the cultivation environment here is much better than the valley where we hid before."

"The spiritual energy in the air has reached the second level, there must be a high-level spiritual vein in this secret realm!"

"The space here is also very stable, and the quality of the secret realm is not low."

"It should be safe to cultivate here for the time being."

"Yes, I didn't expect them to find us such a great place."

"Finally, I can cultivate in peace. Let's cultivate together here from now on."

"Although the spiritual energy here is very rich, I don't know how much resources are produced here."

"After all, it's a secret realm, so the resources are definitely far less abundant than in the outside world, but it's good enough to have a place to stay."

"Yes, rather than being hunted down in the outside world, it's better to hide in the secret realm and cultivate."

……

Upon arriving at the secret realm, the group of cultivators felt their anxiety dissipate as they sensed the high concentration of spiritual energy in the air. They were quite satisfied with the environment of this secret realm.

Sun Yi closed the entrance to the secret realm, then boarded the flying warship and led the fleet in one direction.

After flying for a full day at the fleet's speed, a huge island finally appeared ahead of the fleet.

This island is very large, even larger than the Wanling Continent of the Eight Extremes Star, and it is surrounded by seven slightly smaller islands.

The closer you get to this continent, the richer the spiritual energy between heaven and earth becomes.

"There are three sixth-order spirit veins on the main island in the center, one of which has reached the middle grade of sixth order. There are also many fifth-order spirit veins and a large number of spirit stone mines."

"The seven surrounding islands also have fifth-order spiritual veins, as well as various resource mineral veins."

"This place is more than enough for your cultivation. In addition, there are more than 200,000 ascended cultivators in this secret realm. You can merge into one of them later."

"There are still more than 200,000 ascended cultivators?" Zhang Wuji was taken aback.

Sun Yi nodded and said, "That's right. Most of these ascended cultivators are not at a high level, the lowest being the Foundation Establishment stage and the highest being the Nascent Soul stage. They are all laborers secretly captured by Prince Ning."

“There is a Tai Xuan Gold Mine on this central island, and the job of these ascended cultivators is to extract Tai Xuan Gold,” Sun Yi said slowly.

"Tai Xuan Gold, the top-tier eighth-order material Tai Xuan Gold!" Li Yu exclaimed in surprise.

Zhao Cheng, standing beside him, also gasped, his eyes flashing with a sharp light. He knew, of course, what kind of treasure the Tai Xuan Gold was; it was an extremely precious eighth-grade material, priceless.

"Let's go, let's go straight there." Sun Yi led the fleet directly into the main island. Guided by the memories of Prince Ning, Sun Yi quickly brought everyone to a plateau in the western part of the continent.

This plateau was shrouded in fierce winds, and within these terrifying winds lay a massive mine where countless human cultivators toiled like slaves.

The rocks in this mine are extremely hard and shrouded in a special power, making them accessible only to cultivators. However, even for cultivators, the mining process is extremely difficult.

The massive fleet arrived above the mine, its immense size immediately drawing the attention of the cultivators below.

The eyes of these cultivators below, whether they were Foundation Establishment cultivators, Golden Core cultivators, or Nascent Soul cultivators, were numb, devoid of any hope.

Numb eyes peered through the barrier surrounding the mine at the fleet overhead, but no emotion could stir within them. They were like walking corpses, mere shells.

"Sigh, are these all ascended cultivators? How pitiful!" Luo Ling looked at the human cultivators below with pity, feeling very sorry for them.
