Of course, Han Xuanji would naturally not take a single thread or needle from the Xuanyuan Family.
He was just going for a stroll.
Meanwhile,
Xuanyuan Po's gaze swept over everyone present, especially lingering slightly on Han Xuanji, and he continued:
"I believe all of you know that the Human Race's Ancient Trial Path is about to open. Although there are great Opportunities within it, it is also accompanied by unpredictable risks and fierce competition.
To increase our chances, our Xuanyuan Family is willing to open a Secret Realm for everyone to train in advance and seek Opportunities."
As soon as these words were uttered, a series of low gasps and whispers immediately arose within the pavilion.
A Secret Realm mentioned so solemnly by Xuanyuan Po was by no means comparable to ordinary grotto-heavens or Secret Realms.
Xuanyuan Po was very satisfied with everyone's reaction and no longer kept them in suspense, directly revealing the answer: "This Secret Realm is an ancient ruin that our clan accidentally discovered several years ago!"
"According to the elders in the family, this place is a Secret Realm opened up by an ancient Daluo Expert, and it may contain Opportunities at the Daluo Expert or even Hunyuan Realm level."
"My only request is that any ancient secrets or Dao laws discovered within it can be shared with our Xuanyuan Family."
This news was like a giant stone thrown into a calm lake, stirring up a thousand waves.
This was a great Opportunity, and everyone discussed it animatedly. For them, an ancient Secret Realm that had not been fully developed was already a pleasant surprise, and the prospect of Daluo Expert or even higher-level Opportunities seemed a bit incredible.
Lin Feng, sitting in the corner, his eyes under the mask flickered intensely.
This ancient ruin was actually a Secret Realm he had once controlled in his previous life, and it also contained many treasures he had left behind. Now, it was guarded by the Xuanyuan Family's Great Overarching Experts (Daluo Experts), making it difficult even for him to enter. But once inside, he was confident he would be the biggest winner.
Xuanyuan Po was very satisfied with everyone's reaction and finally added:
"We will go three months from now. Those of you who are interested can come with me then."
For a time, everyone was moved and eagerly asked Xuanyuan Po about the specific details of this ancient ruin, and the atmosphere was extraordinarily lively.
Han Xuanji remained calmly seated in his original spot, as if the surrounding commotion had nothing to do with him.
It sounded like a good check-in location.
Reaching the Hunyuan Realm cannot be achieved merely through arduous cultivation.
Otherwise, if Great Overarching Experts (Daluo Experts) just hid somewhere for tens of millions of years, wouldn't everyone be in the Hunyuan Realm?
Jiang Hao was able to achieve the Hunyuan Realm also by relying on the Heavenly Emperor and the Heavenly Dao's Luck. If he had relied solely on himself, who knows how many years it would have taken. In reality, Great Overarching Experts (Daluo Experts) either stay in the Immortal Realm to contend for immeasurable Luck during the great tribulation, or they venture into the Chaos beyond the heavens to explore the unknown and seek Opportunities.
After everyone had discussed it sufficiently, most people naturally wouldn't miss this Opportunity and agreed to go together. Xuanyuan Po was not surprised by this outcome.
He returned to Han Xuanji's side and smiled:
"Brother Han, are you interested in this Secret Realm?"
Han Xuanji put down his teacup and smiled indifferently:
"Since it is Fellow Daoist Xuanyuan's kind invitation, I would be rude to refuse."
"Excellent!"
Xuanyuan Po smiled slightly.
Through this Opportunity, on the one hand, he could deepen their friendship, and on the other hand, he also wanted to take this Opportunity to probe Han Xuanji's background... That night, the moonlight was like water, clear and cold, silently falling upon the silent Xuanyuan City, draping this ancient massive city in a hazy silver veil.
An invisible fluctuation silently swept past, avoiding all overt and covert sentries and layers of Formation Restrictions, as if merging with the night itself, reaching the most core and heavily guarded Forbidden Land area of the Xuanyuan Family.
This was the Holy Land where Sacred Emperor Xuanyuan was rumored to have left some of his legacy. On ordinary days, unless it was a sacrificial ceremony, even core disciples were not allowed to easily enter.
Han Xuanji's figure appeared like a ghost before an ancient bronze hall.
An indescribably heavy pressure permeated the air.
The grand hall was majestic, exuding a vast and ancient Aura. Its doors were tightly shut, inscribed with ancient totems and runes, with faint Dragon Qi of the imperial Dao flowing around them.
He stood before the hall, not forcing his way in, but merely quietly sensing the profound historical sense that had settled there for eons.
Inside the hall, a Daluo Expert was cultivating in seclusion, but he was completely unaware of Han Xuanji's arrival.
[Detected an eight-star check-in location, "Xuanyuan Ancestral Hall". Do you wish to check in?]
"System, check in."
Han Xuanji silently chanted in his mind.
[Congratulations, Host, for successfully checking in at "Xuanyuan Ancestral Hall" and obtaining "Sacred Emperor Xuanyuan's Enlightenment".]
"Continue to check in."
[Congratulations, Host, for successfully checking in at "Xuanyuan Ancestral Hall" and obtaining ten wisps of "Humanitys Imperial Qi".]
[Congratulations, Host, for successfully checking in at "Xuanyuan Ancestral Hall" and obtaining "Xuanyuan Secret Technique".]
[Congratulations, Host, for successfully checking in at "Xuanyuan Ancestral Hall" and obtaining "Xuanyuan Sword".]
[Congratulations, Host, for successfully checking in at "Xuanyuan Ancestral Hall" and obtaining one hundred "great dao source stone".]
[Congratulations, Host, for successfully checking in at "Xuanyuan Ancestral Hall" and obtaining one bottle of "chaos spirit liquid".]
..."As expected of a Sacred Emperor's family, the rewards are quite generous."
Han Xuanji secretly nodded.
After checking in, the Dao Origin of this place had been completely drained by him. His figure moved, disappearing from his original spot without triggering any alarms.
It was as if he had never appeared, leaving only the moonlight still quietly illuminating the ancient bronze palace.
He returned to the room Xuanyuan Po had arranged for him.
Han Xuanji set up a Restriction and then began to count his gains.
He had obtained over a thousand great dao source stone alone.
And he had also acquired eighty wisps of Humanitys Imperial Qi, though for him now, their use was not significant.
[chaos spirit liquid: A spirit liquid extracted from the ancient lands of Chaos, possessing the ability to repair Foundation and nourish the Divine Soul. It is an Advanced currency used for trade by Great Overarching Experts (Daluo Experts) in the Hunyuan Realm.]
"Even Hunyuan Realm Great Overarching Experts (Daluo Experts) trade with this stuff?"
Han Xuanji's mind stirred.
He focused his gaze on the three small green bottles in the System space.
One bottle contained thirty drops.
Han Xuanji poured out a drop. The moment the cork was opened, there was no heaven-piercing treasure light or terrifying Aura. Instead, an extremely restrained yet incomparably vast Chaos Origin Qi permeated the room instantly. If not for the Restriction set up by Han Xuanji, everyone nearby would surely have felt this Qi.
Han Xuanji carefully guided out a drop with his Divine Thought. Each drop was about the size of a fingernail, with magnificent scenes of earth, water, fire, wind, and the birth and death of stars constantly circulating within it.
Simply by getting close, Han Xuanji felt an indescribable pleasure and craving emanating from the depths of his Divine Soul, as if after a long drought, sweet rain had arrived.
The vast, star-sea-like magical power within his body also spontaneously accelerated its circulation, becoming even more refined.
"Could my Azure Lotus truly have a chance to grow into a chaos green lotus?"
Han Xuanji's mind stirred.
Deep within his Divine Soul, the Twelfth Grade Azure Lotus seemed to strongly desire the chaos spirit liquid.
