Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation

Chapter 652: 528

“I am Fallen Snow. If the juniors from our Sect come here for training, they should know my identity. I beseech you to leave promptly and let me rest in peace within this Vast Wave Secret Realm,”

“The items in the storage bag might not be particularly precious, but they are worth enough to match the value of my Golden Elixir.”

“If you take these things away, it won’t count as a wasted trip.”

“If fellow Daoist is not a junior of our Sect, I naturally have nothing to say.”

“Being able to defeat the four Golden Armor Guards, fellow Daoist’s cultivation must have reached the Golden Core Realm.”

“I only hope that fellow Daoist, considering the connection with the Wind Snow Palace, will spare my Golden Elixir within the corpse.”

“I, Fallen Snow, am eternally grateful.”

As He Song’s gaze swept over the paper in front of him, the more he read, the more he realized that this dharma title, Fallen Snow True Monarch, a Gold Core Cultivator, imparted a significant amount of information in his letter.

First, the Fallen Snow True Monarch revealed the name of this place in the letter.

This place was referred to by Fallen Snow True Monarch as the Vast Wave Secret Realm.

Vast Wave Secret Realm?

Secret Realm?

Is it the kind of Secret Realm that I am thinking of?

He Song pondered over this term, and an idea inevitably emerged in his mind.

Could it be that this underground stream where he found himself was actually a Secret Realm?

But, aren’t Secret Realms supposed to be located in some sort of spatial interlayer, or shrouded by Array Skills?

So why does this Vast Wave Secret Realm that I am in not even have a gate?

He Song had thoroughly explored the periphery of this underground stream before but never discovered any other entrances or exits.

Other than a few deep pools and rivers that lead to this place, there are no other paths leading here.

And within those few deep pools and rivers, foundational demonic beasts dwelt.

If such a place is called a Secret Realm…

Then I, He Song, could randomly point to any river and claim it is a Secret Realm.”

However, soon after.

Just as he came to this realization, He Song’s heart skipped a beat.

Previously, unaware of the name of this place, he had no particular feelings concerning those deep pools and rivers, or the foundational demonic beasts that lurked within them.

But after some careful thought, He Song gradually perceived something amiss.

This underground stream had only so many exits.

And at each exit, there stationed a foundational demonic beast.

Could such a coincidence truly occur?

In the Cultivation World, there were many cultivators who hunted demonic beasts for a living.

In the remote mountains where humans rarely tread, there’s also no shortage of various kinds of demonic beasts.

In such circumstances, would several foundational demonic beasts really stay continuously in the deep pools and rivers, never leaving?

And moreover, would they not be slain by other cultivators?

Such a situation, unless those foundational demonic beasts were not actually demonic beasts but spirit beasts instead.

Only spirit beasts under someone’s command would dutifully guard those few deep pools and rivers under the control of their master.

And it is also because they are spirit beasts that other cultivators would not deal them a deadly blow.

As this idea flashed through his mind, He Song began to grasp why Fallen Snow True Monarch would call this place the Vast Wave Secret Realm.

Possibly, the spirit beasts occupying the exits of the Vast Wave Secret Realm were left by the Wind Snow Palace.

Their purpose, of course, was to take sole possession of this Vast Wave Secret Realm.

After all, Fallen Snow True Monarch made it clear in the letter that this Vast Wave Secret Realm belonged to the Wind Snow Palace.

Wind Snow Palace.

That is the Golden Core Sect where An Ning resides.

He Song had previously gathered some knowledge about this Golden Core Sect, but he was unaware that the Wind Snow Palace also had such a Secret Realm at their disposal.

A Golden Core Sect secretly holding sway over a Secret Realm.

Upon this revelation, He Song felt somewhat puzzled.

However, thinking back to how he had almost completely explored this underground stream and found only demonic beasts and no other Treasures, He Song’s concerns dissipated.

Presumably, the Vast Wave Secret Realm referred to by Fallen Snow True Monarch didn’t hold any Treasures worth mentioning.

According to He Song’s guess, perhaps those foundational demonic beasts he had overlooked were the only resources within the Vast Wave Secret Realm.

People from the Wind Snow Palace might come here every so often to completely clear out the foundational demonic beasts in this Vast Wave Secret Realm.

But then, whether these beasts would be taken as spirit beasts or directly slain, was something He Song had no way of knowing.

And after the people from Wind Snow Palace completely cleared out the foundational demonic beasts in the Vast Wave Secret Realm,

They would probably then let the demonic beasts continue to grow unchecked.

Once sufficient foundational demonic beasts emerged again, those from the Wind Snow Palace would come once more.

In this cycle,

perhaps lies the very purpose of this Vast Wave Secret Realm.

It is also the reason why the Vast Wave Secret Realm had not been taken by other powers.

Vast Wave Secret Realm, rather than a Secret Realm, it’s more appropriate to call it a breeding ground for demonic beasts controlled by the Wind Snow Palace.

Indeed, based on He Song’s earlier exploration, aside from demonic beasts, there were no other Treasures here.

Calling it a Secret Realm was perhaps a bit of an exaggeration.

And the actual value of the Vast Wave Secret Realm, if calculated carefully, probably wasn’t all that remarkable.

For demonic beasts at the Qi Refining stage to advance to Foundation Establishment is quite difficult.

For the Vast Wave Secret Realm to have a sufficient number of foundational demonic beasts would require no small amount of time.

So when figured out properly, the benefits the Wind Snow Palace would gain from the Vast Wave Secret Realm probably weren’t that substantial.
