159: Many forces, Mingshuitian falls

"Mingshui Heaven is about to fall?"

In a desolate forest outside the dead city, Wang Huohuo suddenly looked up, her eyes filled with anticipation.

She was accompanied by other Cultivators, all of whom had escaped from Great Jiang Imperial City. They all hoped to acquire treasures from Mingshui Heaven and advance further amidst the chaos.

Wang Huohuo couldn't determine who had leaked the exact coordinates, but thanks to that person, she was able to find the location so quickly.

As for what happened next, it would be up to their individual abilities.

‘No matter what, I am the Young Miss of the Murong Family, with the Legacy of the Lan Yun Guard, and I have various Medicinal Pills and Talismans. I absolutely have the ability to protect myself.’

Wang Huohuo felt that since there were no Golden Cores presiding over this Secret Realm's descent, the protagonists would definitely be the players.

Among the player community, her strength was absolutely among the best. Not long ago, she had exhausted her resources and sacrificed Lifespan to successfully Breakthrough to Immortal Foundation. Wouldn't she be able to rampage freely in this Secret Realm?

Even when facing the evil Cultivators of the Great Love Sect, Wang Huohuo felt that unless Midnight Gao Sou and others surrounded her, she could come and go as she pleased.

This confidence made her lips curl into a joyful smile.

Other players from the former Great Jiang imperial court also came forward with compliments, hoping to cling to her and jointly search for treasures once inside.

Wang Huohuo acknowledged them one by one, feeling a sense of elation. She greatly enjoyed being adored... Wang Long, along with Seiya's people, was located at the other end, hiding behind a hill, gazing at the dead city from a distance. At this moment, he also sensed the commotion in the sky.

“The Secret Realm is about to fall.”

A player spoke up to remind everyone, and all began to organize their storage rings, ensuring their equipment was complete.

Wang Long held a fiery red long spear and wore a crimson armor, like a majestic general on the battlefield, a confident, wild laugh on his face.

He addressed the crowd:

“Listen up, our main mission this time is to kill Ye Chun and force him to restart.”

Wang Long brandished his long spear, arrogant and untamed.

Someone raised an objection:

“Captain, that won't do. When the Secret Realm falls, there must be many treasures inside. Our main mission should be to search for resources.”

“Exactly. Other clubs must also have people nearby, and they'll be entering the Secret Realm together later. Everyone will be snatching resources, so time is tight. We don't have time to provoke Ye Chun.”

“That's right. If we run into him, then so be it, but if we don't, there's no need for us to…”

Before he could finish speaking, Wang Long glared at him fiercely, and the speaker immediately fell silent.

Wang Long's strength was quite good. Although his prestige couldn't compare to Ye Chun's past, with the manager's strong support, others had no choice but to obey.

“I'll say it again: after we enter, we will head directly for the people of Heshui Prefecture, find Ye Chun, and then I will personally kill him.”

Wang Long said fiercely, completely ignoring the opinions of others.

He only conversed with the soul body in his mind: "Old man, do you have any opinions?"

Immortal Master Moon Abyss, however, showed no anger: "If this is what you want to do, then go ahead and do it boldly."

Wang Long was puzzled: "I'm going to the Secret Realm for personal matters and don't plan to collect resources, which is of no help to your resurrection. Do you still approve?"

Immortal Master Moon Abyss remained calm and unruffled: "Do you think you're unique? Every year, countless Secret Realms open in the Cultivation World, and countless talented individuals fight each other. Who can say how many are for treasures and how many are for grievances?"

Wang Long pondered. So, it was normal for people in the Cultivation World to kill for grievances; not all Cultivators were cold, cultivation-obsessed maniacs who considered nothing but cultivation efficiency.

At this moment, Immortal Master Moon Abyss added: "If you can truly defeat Ye Chun, it will indeed be beneficial to you. Perhaps it will gradually lead you to possess an Indomitable Heart, which will be of great help to your Cultivation."

“Indomitable Heart?”

Wang Long was confused; this was a concept he had never heard of before.

Immortal Master Moon Abyss said no more: "It would be detrimental if I told you. You will naturally comprehend it once you defeat Ye Chun."

Wang Long frowned. He disliked such enigmatic statements, but Immortal Master Moon Abyss had indeed helped him greatly these days, almost teaching him hand-in-hand to become an Immortal Foundation Cultivator and imparting many combat methods, which gradually built his confidence against Ye Chun.

Feeling the air around him vibrate, knowing that the Secret Realm was about to descend, his lips curled into a smile:

"Ye Chun, see you in the Secret Realm."

...As the sky vibrated, rich Spiritual Qi gradually diffused, and more and more players learned that a Secret Realm was about to descend here.

Players who were initially skeptical rushed over.

Some players who were worried about Golden Cores, after confirming that there were indeed no Golden Cores nearby, also hurried towards the dead city.

Midnight Gao Sou stood on the city wall, feeling the surrounding Spiritual Qi gradually spreading, the black smoke dissipating, and the blood Qi returning to calm.

Suddenly, a crack opened in the sky, streams of light flickered, and countless treasures descended from above.

"It really is here!"

"The Secret Realm is about to fall!"

"Treasures have appeared!"

With the experience from Green Emerald Heaven, Midnight Gao Sou and others were not in a hurry to snatch the treasures. These were, after all, just appetizers, and their quality wouldn't be too high.

But more ordinary players, just like last time, shouted and ran to contend for treasures. For a time, spells and streams of light were constant, and some people actually began to fight.

Midnight Gao Sou glanced at them, frowning.

Even people from the Great Love Sect were fighting each other, with two Mortal Foundation Cultivator even battling over a single treasure.

“Forget it, Gao Sou, don't mind them. The Secret Realm is more important.”

Old Potato advised, not wanting to create unnecessary complications.

Midnight Gao Sou shook his head. Players were like this: disorganized and undisciplined. It was fine to lead them to slaughter a city, but it was impossible to make them follow strict orders.

If he intervened now, it would not only delay important matters but also alienate these players, making things even more troublesome later.

Midnight Gao Sou simply pretended not to see, letting them fight.

Suddenly, another series of cracking sounds came from the sky.

Midnight Gao Sou and the others felt an invisible, immense force suddenly appear, throwing them all out.

When they regained their footing and looked up, the dead city had vanished.

In its place was a lush, green forest, vast in area, probably tens of thousands of miles wide, with a winding great river, rich in Spiritual Qi, and exquisite pavilions lining its banks.

Mingshui Heaven had fallen!

"The Secret Realm has opened!"

"Go in and seize the treasures!"

The players were extremely excited, rushing towards the Secret Realm in a chaotic mass.

Midnight Gao Sou then realized that a group of people had appeared around them at some point. Considering the immense circumference of this Secret Realm, the number of players gathered this time was probably extremely high, and the player count would only continue to grow.

But... "As expected, no Golden Cores."

Midnight Gao Sou narrowed his eyes and looked up at the sky. There were indeed no terrifying three figures.

At the same time, the first players to rush forward were clearly blocked by an invisible barrier; this Mingshui Heaven was protected by a Formation.

“Great Love Sect Disciples, clear the surroundings! We will monopolize Mingshui Heaven!”

Midnight Gao Sou declared loudly.
