“Look, there’s Qin Luan from the Wind Stabilizing View!” People’s eyes were focused on the puffed-up Song Ying, and finally someone noticed Qin Luan. Judging by her tone, Qin Luan seemed to be someone with quite a reputation. This chapter is updat𝓮d by nov(e)(l)biin.com

As for Jiang Li, he appeared ordinary and not that noteworthy, so people dismissed him.

“I heard that this guy was picked up by the master of Wind Stabilizing View. When he was tested for his talent at the age of eight, he turned out to possess a rare single-element Thunder Spiritual Root. Many major sects tried to extend an olive branch to him, but all were turned down.”

“Everyone thought that although his talent was commendable, without the support of a major sect, he would only waste it. But who would have expected that relying on his comprehension and good fortune, he has surpassed the disciples of the major sects!”

Spiritual Roots also vary in quality. The best ones are the dual Heaven and Earth Spiritual Roots, followed by single spiritual roots, and the worst are the Five Elements Spiritual Roots.

Among the single spiritual roots, the five elements of Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth are the most common, while Wind, Thunder, and other variant spiritual roots are rare. Variant single spiritual roots are slightly superior to regular spiritual roots, although not as good as the Heaven-Earth Spiritual Roots, they are considered the epitome for single spiritual roots.

“Why pretend you don’t see me!” Song Ying arrogantly puffed up, her eyes glaring at Qin Luan.

“If I hadn’t noticed you, how could I have introduced you to Brother Kong?” Qin

Luan replied, sounding quite justified, “I just don’t want to deal with you.”

Noticing the brewing quarrel between the two, Jiang Li asked, “Brother Qin, do you know who that person over there is?”

Qin Luan thought for a while but couldn’t recall. Song Ying, seeing that Jiang Li was on good terms with Qin Luan and concluding that they might be friends, answered on Qin Luan’s behalf.

“That person is Li Litong, the True Disciple of the Stone Dragon Gate. I heard he used to be mediocre in terms of talent and comprehension. However, ever since he fell off a cliff, he had a breakthrough, and his cultivation has notably advanced. In just half a year, he advanced from the early stage to the later stage of the Foundation Establishment Stage. I had a match with him. Although I easily won, I feel that he was holding back and hadn’t shown his real level.”

Jiang Li nodded, then gestured for the two to continue their argument.

Amid the quarrel between the two, the Mysterious Secret Realm finally opened.

The number of people allowed in the Mysterious Secret Realm is fixed, with only eight hundred spots. When all eight hundred disciples from the various sects entered the Mysterious Secret Realm, Jiang Li, being the 801st, casually entered the entrance of the secret realm.

Everybody thought this might be a loose cultivator trying to fish in troubled waters. But to their surprise, this person actually entered the Mysterious Secret Realm and was not expelled by the realm.

Could they have miscounted?

Just as Jiang Li entered the secret realm, he felt a pushing force. The force was like a three-year-old child trying to push away a large elephant, even with all its might, it just wouldn’t budge.

Soon, the secret realm seemed to realize it couldn’t get rid of this unwelcome guest, so it gave up this fruitless effort and focused all its power on examining him.

In front of Jiang Li’s eyes, a stream was forming, composed out of spiritual energy coalescing into spiritual water. Drinking a single mouthful is comparable to three months of cultivation for a Foundation Establishment cultivator. Not far away, a wooden qin was playing naturally, and fairy cranes were dancing along with the sound of the qin. In the distance, fairy mountains were floating, and the idyllic landscape made people reluctant to leave.

Jiang Li was captivated by the scenic beauty and compulsively walked over to the wooden qin, cut it down, and watched the fairy cranes.

The fairy crane sensed danger and tried to fly away but was forcefully held by Jiang Li.

Soon, smoke arose by the riverside, and the scent of roasted meat spread far and wide.

From not far away, a weak cry for help can be heard, from the sound alone you could imagine the owner of the voice was a beautiful and delicate woman. Jiang Li turned a deaf ear to this and continued roasting his meat attentively.

The voice got closer and closer until it reached Jiang Li.

“Sir, please save me!”

The extremely beautiful girl’s clothes were torn, her body barely covered. She most likely got her clothes torn when running from danger, exposing much of herself. She looked pitiful, enough to awake a man’s protective instinct.

Jiang Li was a serious man; therefore, he continued roasting his meat.

The girl was momentarily shocked by Jiang Li’s demeanor, seemingly having never encountered such a situation before. But remembering she was being pursued, she quickly turned to Jiang Li for help.

“Sir, please save me. There’s a brute trying to assault me. If you can save Chun’er, I’m willing to dedicate myself to you. And all my family’s fortune will be yours!”

The girl named Chun’er deeply bowed, revealing more than an average girl of her age would.

What cultivator could withstand such a test?

Jiang Li could.

At a glance, he could see that the girl was only about eighteen; her strength was probably only at the Qi Cultivation First or Second Level. That would make her talent a first-rate crippled one in the Nine Continents.

Judging by the fact that such a girl could escape, the one pursuing her would not be too powerful.

Sure enough, before Chun’er had the chance to speak again, the pursuers arrived from the bottom of the mountain. With cruel smiles on their faces, they surrounded Chun’er and Jiang Li.

The strength of those people was slightly stronger than Chun’er’s, probably at about the half level of the Qi Cultivation Second Stage.

Usually, during the Qi Cultivation Stage, only full levels from one to nine are considered; there is no such thing as a half level. But Jiang Li decided to grant these people an additional half level out of pity.

Qi Cultivation Second and a half level – the compassion of the Human Emperor.

“You little girl, run! Let’s see how far you can run!” The man with lewd smile on his face was the leader. It was clear what he was thinking, “Today you will die with your boyfriend!”

“He…he isn’t my boyfriend!” Chun’er suddenly blushed.

The group didn’t care about Chun’er’s reaction. At the leader’s command, they were all thrown down the mountain by Jiang Li before they could join forces to attack.

“Benefactor, thank you for saving my life. I have nothing to repay you, but I’m willing to give myself to you!” Chun’er looked endearing, her eyes filled with affection.

Of course, Jiang Li would not refuse Chun’er’s good intentions. He gently said, “Maybe in the next life.”

Chun’er: “… My benefactor, you certainly have a sense of humor. Please allow me to invite you to my village to show my gratitude for your life-saving grace.”

The spiritual energy density within the secret realm was several times higher than in the Nine Continents. On the way to the village, Jiang Li saw that the wild fruits beside the road could be considered heavenly treasures. They would

be very beneficial even for Golden Core or even the Nascent Soul Stage cultivators.

If a Foundation Establishment cultivator came here, they would probably want to live in this secret realm directly.

It’s amazing that Chun’er managed to maintain her level at the Qi Cultivation Level half stage despite the abundance of such heavenly treasures.

Chun’er’s village was appealing, according to Chun’er, all the men of the village had been conscripted by the nation to go to the battlefield, and after ten years, not one had returned. Therefore, only a group of widowed beauties and young girls were left in the village.

These beautiful women and girls were attractive, and Jiang Li felt as if he had come to an unworldly realm upon his arrival.

Chun’er further mentioned that currently, the country was torn by war, men were rare, leaving behind many widows and young girls. Their looks were not inferior to those in this village. Jiang Li, with his impressive cultivation, could unify the world and reign supreme if he were to plunge into the battlefield.

During the conversation with Chunter, Jiang Li understood that people in the secret realm could not cultivate to be immortals; they could only train their muscles and enhance their martial arts. The heavenly treasures were useless to them.

Chun’er was considered talented among them. She was a post-natal master at a young age, Above post-natal was the pre-natal master, and above that was the scarcely seen Grandmaster!

The realm of Grandmaster, only appearing in legends!

And according to Chun’er’s description, the realm of Grandmaster equates to the Qi Cultivation Seventh to Ninth Level!

Upon hearing this, Jiang Li took a sharp intake of breath, causing the temperature in the entire secret realm to plummet several degrees.

What a weak secret realm world!
