Chapter 27: The Secret of the Tianyuan World

Jiang Yun stood in the middle of the secret realm. Suddenly, a man ran up and knelt in front of him, showing great respect. He spoke hastily, "Everyone is now dressed in robes with the emblem of the disciples of the Blood Demon Sacred Land. We have divided the territory for the slaughter, ready to kill anyone who enters those areas. The Samsara Clones are the leaders, and the followers are the vice-leaders. The clones have been divided into groups of 49, and all 10 groups have covered the entire secret realm."

Jiang Yun nodded and smiled slightly. "Good. Send a message to everyone to follow the orders of the Samsara Clones. If anything unexpected happens, use the teleportation formation to escape immediately."

Behind a large tree, a man was hiding. He heard everything that happened and was very shocked. He thought to himself, "What is going on? Are these people planning to kill everyone in the secret realm?" He tried to sneak a look to see who was behind this bloody plan, but as he peeked, a man's face came to his mind, and he hoped it wasn't true. When he saw the face of the mastermind, a cold chill ran through his body, and before he knew it, his body turned into a scattering of flesh with his last words being, "It's over..."

Seeing Jiang Yun's face, he immediately understood that every life entering the secret realm was in the hands of this young man.

Jiang Yun smiled a little before proceeding. He had meticulously planned everything by dividing his people into 10 groups, each with 51 members, to spread out and claim luck points in various zones. Everyone wore the uniform of the Blood Demon Sacred Land and bore the emblem of a true disciple, along with some demonic arts.

The Samsara Clones acted as leaders, while his followers served as vice-leaders. All of the clone groups were dispersed across different areas, creating large-scale confinement formations by the 10 Samsara Clones. After killing, they were to leave traces of the Blood Demon Arts. At the entrance and exit of the secret realm, he had stationed Mu Chuyuan and 49 clones with divine bodies to prevent any escape. He warned that if anyone wielding an Emperor Weapon was encountered, they were to stall for time, allowing the Samsara Clones to activate the Heavenly Concealment Formation to siphon luck and then retreat. All blame would be laid on the Blood Demon Sacred Land.

Jiang Yun asked the system, "How is it?"

The system immediately responded, [Found it, host!]

Jiang Yun smiled and said, "Very good."

The system replied confidently, [Of course, host. As for the service fee, I won't charge too much, hehe.]

Jiang Yun nodded slightly. He then followed the path indicated by the system, eventually arriving at an abandoned cave. He entered it without hesitation.

The system's voice rang out, [Congratulations...]

Jiang Yun cut it off, "Turn off notifications now!"

The system quickly complied, [Understood, host!]

As he entered the cave, Jiang Yun encountered the spirit of a powerful being who had been waiting there. The spirit spoke in a commanding voice, "Young one, congratulations on reaching this place. Do you wish to become my successor?"

Jiang Yun smiled and looked at the spirit before replying, "I am not interested."

Name: Ba Zhi

Entity: ???

Affiliation: ???

Cultivation Level: Saint Level 1 (Crumbled)

Body: ???

Special Occupation: -

Skills: (Unavailable) ???, ???

Weapons: (Unavailable) Coffin (???), Secret Realm (???), (???)

Luck: ???

As soon as Jiang Yun spoke, he waved his hand to create a spirit confinement formation and used spiritual threads to capture the spirit. The spirit was shocked but remained calm, speaking with a mocking tone, "You are just an ant at the Nirvana level 9 and you think you can contend with..."

Before the spirit could finish, his words came to an abrupt stop. He was shocked to see Jiang Yun's cultivation level rapidly increase from Nirvana level 9...

To Saint Level 1...

...

Saint Level 5...

.....

.....

....

Saint King Level 9.

The spirit was stunned by this transformation. "What kind of madness is this? How could a Saint King enter this place, and judging from your bone age, you are only 18 or 19 years old! What kind of monster have I encountered?"

Jiang Yun smiled and asked, "Will you surrender, or will you surrender?"

The spirit replied defiantly, "I never expected that an immortal like me would fall to a mere child like you, but if I were still at my peak..."

Jiang Yun cut him off, "Your past self, huh? And what about you now? You are nothing more than an ant in the palm of my hand. Whether you live or die depends on me. Even if you want to die right now, you would need to ask my permission first. You are merely a remnant of the greatness you once possessed. So, know your place and answer my questions truthfully."

After hearing Jiang Yun's mocking words, the spirit felt as if a sharp knife had pierced through his chest, straight to his heart. He laughed bitterly, "When was the last time I was this helpless? Ah, since those two..."

Jiang Yun smiled and said, "Alright, let's have a chat. What's your name, your identity, your weight, height, date of birth, your blood type? What are your parents' names? How many siblings do you have? What do you like to do in your free time? Where are you from?"

The spirit immediately replied, "Why are you asking so many questions? My name is Ba Zhi, a former Holy Son of the Immortal Demon Sacred Land."

Suddenly, Jiang Yun swiftly severed Ba Zhi's arm. Ba Zhi screamed in pain but smiled and said, "I've already told the truth. What more do you want?"

"Nothing much, it's just that you talked for too long and made me sleepy," Jiang Yun replied. "My hand accidentally touched the spiritual thread, that's all. Anyway, where is this Immortal Demon Sacred Land of yours?"

"It is in the Tianyuan World," Ba Zhi answered irritably, thinking to himself, "You were the only one talking just now."

Jiang Yun cut off Ba Zhi's hand again. Ba Zhi cried out in pain and shouted, "I already told you, it's in the Tianyuan World!"

Jiang Yun smiled and asked, "In the world I live in, which is called Tianyuan, there has never been any mention of your Immortal Demon Sacred Land."

Ba Zhi continued, "Just because it doesn't exist here or you haven't heard of it doesn't mean you need to cut my hand off. Do you think my hands can grow back naturally? And how could it exist here? This place is just a small fragment of the real Tianyuan World."

Jiang Yun smiled and asked, "A small fragment of the Tianyuan World? How do you know that?"

Ba Zhi said, "I used to live in the real Tianyuan World, and even though I only woke up a few months ago, I used my spiritual sense to check, and I found that this world resembles the Tianyuan World in some ways. I am certain that it is related to the event when the Eternal Immortal Emperor fragmented the Tianyuan World into smaller worlds. But you lot are quite unlucky, being in a fragment without even true immortal spiritual power, although there are traces of it in the western lands."

"Why did the Eternal Immortal Emperor destroy the Tianyuan World and scatter it into fragments?" Jiang Yun asked.

Ba Zhi replied, "The Eternal Immortal Emperor didn't truly destroy the Tianyuan World. The real Tianyuan World still exists and is becoming stronger. He only created small world fragments from it and will eventually merge them back together."

Ba Zhi continued, "Everyone is curious about his actions. It might be to elevate the Tianyuan World to a higher level or to make a deal with the Dao of Heaven, allowing these fragments to absorb fortune and return to strengthen the Dao of Heaven, or perhaps to create a genius the likes of which has never been seen before. I don't know much about it."

"Then how did you end up here? And why did you open this secret realm?" Jiang Yun asked.

Ba Zhi replied, "I was betrayed and killed by those two vile creatures, but my spirit managed to survive and has been in slumber here. The reason I opened the secret realm was to devour those who enter, speeding up my recovery."

Jiang Yun asked, "Can people from the true Tianyuan World enter these fragments?"

Ba Zhi replied, "Certainly. It's not that hard if they have the coordinates, but it does require a lot of resources. However, the rewards make it worthwhile. Mid-level to high-level factions, such as royal families, sects of various levels, and cultivator clans, often send people to establish forces here in their name to seize the initial resources. When a fragment reconnects to the main world, it will receive the immortal spiritual power from the main world, causing treasures, weapons, herbs, elixirs, and minerals to advance rapidly."

Jiang Yun asked, "How long will it be before this fragment merges back with the true Tianyuan World?"

Ba Zhi said, "After I woke up and checked the spiritual power level, it should be about 11 months, but no more than a year."

Jiang Yun considered his plans after the secret realm and thought he might have to cancel them. He suddenly thought of something and listed all the names of imperial-level forces, asking if any of them were from the true Tianyuan World.

Ba Zhi was shocked to find out that even in this fragment, there were high-level forces, including immortal-level forces. He told Jiang Yun, "Yes, there are the Gu Family, the Mu Family, the Green Wood Sacred Land, the Sunlight Royal Family, the Heaven Sword Sacred Land, the Purple Moon Sacred Land, the Hall of Darkness, the Starry Commerce Guild, the Dragon Family... and others."

He continued, "And only three immortal-level forces: the Blood Demon Sacred Land, the Misty Sacred Land, and the Five Elements Sacred Land. It's laughable that these forces even dare to call themselves sacred lands."

Jiang Yun pondered and asked, "What comes after the emperor level?"

"There are 12 levels," Ba Zhi replied, "Semi-Immortal, Immortal, True Immortal, Earth Immortal, Heaven Immortal, Secret Immortal, Immortal King, Immortal Saint, Great Immortal, Supreme, Semi-Immortal Emperor, and Immortal Emperor."

"What is the highest cultivation level in an immortal-level force?" Jiang Yun asked.

"As far as I know, it's the Great Immortal level," Ba Zhi replied.

"And what about forces beyond the immortal level?" Jiang Yun continued.

"Such forces are governed by Immortal Emperors and must possess an Immortal Emperor's weapon, like the Immortal Demon Sacred Land," Ba Zhi said.

Jiang Yun smiled slightly and said, "You're quite interesting. Are you interested in following me?"

Ba Zhi was stunned and fell silent. Yet, his heart told him to agree. Even though he was once an Immortal King, his instincts told him that if he agreed, he might reach heights beyond the Immortal King. After a while, he felt a conflict between following his heart or preserving his pride.

He smiled and said, "I will follow you wherever you go."

Jiang Yun smiled and handed him three books, instructing him to begin training immediately. Ba Zhi began training and was astonished that Jiang Yun could create a time acceleration formation. He then understood why his heart had urged him to agree.

When Ba Zhi finished his training, he knelt and said, "Greetings, my lord."

Jiang Yun smiled and said, "Alright, let's go."
