Chapter 127 - The Change In Rules, The Opening of the Secret Realm

Someone quickly announced that all the sects were to head to the outskirts of the capital, the place where the commotion had come from.

Ye Xuan was a little surprised. Didn’t those sects completely seal off the place before, as if they didn’t want outsiders to know and wanted to monopolize it?

Why did they suddenly become so generous? He suppressed the doubts in his head and led the Tai Qing Sect forward, wanting to see what those people were up to.

Outside the capital, the people from the seven great sects were still stationed there. However, the surrounding sects had already rushed over after hearing the news.

“Why can’t we go through? Even if they are the seven great sects, they shouldn’t monopolize this place.”

“That’s right. This is too overbearing. It’s not like this is your territory.”

As more and more people rushed in, including some powerful individual cultivators, if the blockade was continued, conflict was bound to break out, and the situation was getting out of control.

Near the bottom of the pit, people from the Heaven Sect, Dao Seeking Sect, and the Yaochi Holy Land were all gathered here. They couldn’t push Sword Sect out even if they wanted to.

Because the deep pit had been completely exposed to the world, they could not monopolize the secret realm.

“So what if you sealed off this piece of news so tightly? In the end, it’s all gone to waste.”

Mo Jianming’s eyes were sharp and vicious. He could tell at a glance that this was a secret realm, and it might even be related to Penglai Immortal Island. In the face of his ridicule, the other sects’ expressions didn’t look good.

What made him feel strange was that according to these people’s nature, the moment they discovered the secret realm, they would immediately send people to investigate. Now, they were all outside, which was really strange.

Mo Jianming took a few more glances, “So it’s because the secret realm hasn’t opened yet. No wonder you’re here.”

The people of the Infinity Sect were good at mediating the situation. They laughed and said, “Elder Mo, don’t be angry. We were just about to inform you, but we didn’t expect you to come.”

“Besides, we didn’t want to stop you at that time. It was just that the time wasn’t right.”

The people from the Sword Sect couldn’t help but roll their eyes when they heard this.

Seeing that most of the people had arrived, the grand elder of the Dao Seeking Sect stood out. He had spent a lot of effort and finally expelled the sword Qi from his body, but he had suffered a lot in the process.

Although the injury had healed, the scar in the center of his palm could not be healed. His cultivation had also recovered.

“Please calm down, everyone. We seven great sects have accidentally discovered the existence of a secret realm here. We hereby announce to the world that all cultivators below sky rank level 5 can enter.”

The grand elder’s figure appeared in the air. He was extremely tall and majestic. His voice reverberated within a hundred-mile radius, so everyone could hear him.

Everyone was stunned, and the sects that were blocked outside immediately looked guilty.

“So it was a misunderstanding on our part. We thought that the seven great sects wanted to monopolize this secret realm.”

Ye Xuan, who happened to hear this, was a little speechless.

After all, those seven great sects’ people had this idea in mind originally. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have suddenly sealed it off. However, he didn’t know why they had changed their minds. Could it be related to this secret realm?

Before everyone could digest the huge information contained in these words…

“Due to special circumstances, the rules of the sect returning ceremony have been changed. Those with the most outstanding contributions in the secret realm will be rewarded according to their contributions. The top three will be the victors.”

The rules of the sect returning ceremony had been changed again! The crowd was suddenly in an uproar. For the Tai Qing Sect, this was considered good news.

After all, they hadn’t found Han Yue yet, so it was impossible for her to participate in the sect master’s competition. This meant that she would be disqualified. It wasn’t easy for them to get to this stage, so how could they be willing to accept it?

“That’s great, Elder Ye. Now that the rules have changed, the matter of finding the sect master can be put aside for the time being.”

“As long as we make a huge contribution in the secret realm, we still have a chance.”

At the same time, there were also quite a few sect representatives who asked, “Why is it that only those below sky rank level 5 can enter, but those above sky rank level 5 can’t?”

Just this condition alone had filtered out many people. Many sect masters and elders were not allowed to enter the secret realm, so they couldn’t help but feel that it was a little unfair.

“That’s because of the restrictions of this secret realm.”

Speaking of which, it was strange. They didn’t expect that this secret realm would actually have a cultivation level restriction. Thinking of this, the expressions of the people from the seven great sects changed slightly. If it wasn’t for this reason, they would have entered by themselves long ago.

Ye Xuan finally understood why these people would open the secret realm and no longer seal it. It was all because of this.

The number of people from the seven great sects was large, but to meet this condition, at least half of them would not be able to participate. In addition, the secret realm was unknown. If they entered rashly, no one knew what kind of danger would be lurking inside the realm.

Since they could use the sect returning ceremony as an opportunity to send people to explore the secret realm and obtain the items inside, why not?

They were all tools, yet they were kept in the dark and were grateful to the Heaven Sect, Dao Seeking Sect, and Yaochi Holy Land.

“Then how do we calculate our contribution after we enter the secret realm?”

“Don’t worry, everyone. We will give you a jade pendant to all the sects that enter the secret realm. It will be used to record and safeguard the things that you have obtained. Whether it’s spiritual pills, immortal medicines, or cultivation methods, they can all be exchanged for contribution points.

“You can say that the more precious the item is, the more contribution points you’ll receive. We’ll all reward you.”

Ye Xuan sneered as he thought, ‘What a good plan.’

The people of the Tai Qing Sect saw that he was not in high spirits and thought that he was worried about Han Yue. They comforted him, “Elder Ye, don’t worry. Sect master is a good person and the heavens will help her. Nothing will happen to her.”
