Chapter 67: Entering the Cave Heaven Secret Realm
Chapter 67: Entering the Cave Heaven Secret Realm
"Starry Abyss Sect, enter!"
With Sect Master Feng Jun's commanding shout,
The disciples of the Starry Abyss Sect, led by Duan Ziming, ascended into the air one by one, flying towards the vortex.
Jiang Chen seamlessly merged into the group and soared in as well.
As soon as he penetrated the vortex,
He instantly experienced a wave of disorientation.
It was as though the light before him had transformed into a spiral!
Subsequently,
A sudden, intense radiance emerged before his eyes, accompanied by the sensation of his feet making contact with solid ground.
"We've arrived!"
"Is this the inside of the Cave Heaven secret realm?"
"I can sense the abundant spiritual qi here; it's even denser than at our Starry Abyss Heavenly Peak!"
"Hahaha, we are among the rare few who can enter the Cave Heaven secret realm. This in itself is a lifetime's worth of stories to share!"
"Yes, but, fellow disciples, the Cave Heaven secret realm is quite perilous this time. We must all prioritize our safety and return unharmed!"
"Exactly, let's go! Let's seek out opportunities, and everyone, remember to be cautious!"
"..."
Amid the animated discussions of the crowd, most people were visibly exhilarated.
The primary reason was that Jiang Chen's consecutive breakthroughs during his 'experience outside the sect' had inspired them!
'So, this is the Cave Heaven secret realm!'
'Wherever the protagonist appears, great opportunities always follow!'
'And this type of crucial domain often harbors significant opportunities that can substantially empower the protagonist!'
'Minor chances that can be casually discovered along the way are not even worth considering.'
'Ye Fan entered here before me; I must first determine his whereabouts!'
'...'
Jiang Chen contemplated in his heart, and then promptly unleashed his divine sense, enveloping a radius of one thousand meters around him!
Regarding Ye Fan,
Jiang Chen held a realm advantage over him!
Not only in actual combat power,
But also in terms of divine sense, his detection radius was considerably broader than Ye Fan's!
This was because methods dedicated to enhancing divine sense alone were genuinely rare, and their effects were not particularly remarkable.
The main way to improve divine sense involved advancing one's realm.
At this very moment,
As he extended his divine sense,
Jiang Chen promptly detected members from other sects!
Among them was the Azure Jade Sect, to which Ye Fan belonged!
'It seems so.'
'While the teleportation in this Cave Heaven secret realm possesses a random element, it isn't particularly strong.'
'The shorter the interval between cultivators' arrivals, the closer their proximity!'
'...'
A spark flickered in Jiang Chen's eyes as his divine sense swept across the members of the Azure Jade Sect, particularly concentrating on Ye Fan.
As for the whereabouts of the protagonist,
Jiang Chen was determined to keep it under control.
However, at this juncture,
Jiang Chen possessed minimal knowledge about the protagonist Ye Fan, not even aware of the nature of his trump card.
He could only surmise, based on Ye Fan's unassuming appearance, that this individual was likely the type to feign ignorance and strike unexpectedly, amassing wealth discreetly.
Such protagonists were typically cautious!
'I must observe further.'
'I cannot act recklessly... Otherwise, if he possesses some sort of extraordinary trump card and defeats me, it'll be the end.'
Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes, his heart on high alert like a vigilant cat.
Aside from Jiang Chen,
Chief disciple Duan Ziming and the two other true disciples were also observing the other sects.
Naturally, the other sects were keeping a watchful eye on the Starry Abyss Sect as well.
Some disciples displayed murderous intent on their faces, a stark contrast to their demeanor outside the Cave Heaven secret realm, evidently prepared to unleash their fury and embark on a rampage!
"Everyone, stay vigilant!"
"Many individuals from those sects harbor ill intentions, so do not become separated!"
Duan Ziming directed the group of disciples and specifically nodded at Jiang Chen.
"Mm."
Jiang Chen smiled, signaling his understanding.
"We understand, Chief Senior Brother!"
The group replied in unison.
Just at that moment,
"Wow!"
"There are actually so many spiritual plants here!"
"Although their ranks aren't very high, it's still astonishing to find them scattered on the ground like this!"
Someone stumbled upon a vast cluster of spiritual plants and was immediately overcome with excitement, their entire body quivering.
"Quick, quick, quick!"
"There's more here, and over there too!"
"There are so many! This Cave Heaven secret realm has absorbed the spiritual qi of the Forsaken Serenity Mountain Range for countless years. There must be a wealth of treasures!"
"Yes, yes, yes, this Cave Heaven secret realm is an extraordinary treasure trove. We must return fully laden this time!"
"I've made up my mind; after I go back, I'll propose to the junior sister who has stood by me for ten years!"
"..."
Glimpsing the natural treasures, everyone's eyes sparkled brightly, and they couldn't help but scatter.
"Everyone, stay cautious!"
"Watch out for disciples from rival sects with malicious intent."
"This Cave Heaven secret realm hasn't been visited by anyone for countless years! Unknown dangers may lie in wait!"
"..."
Duan Ziming observed the dispersing crowd and couldn't help but furrow his brow.
However.
He couldn't stop them.
After all, this was an opportunity for them!
For cultivators, obstructing someone's chance was nearly as unforgivable as killing their parents!
Fortunately.
Disciples from other sects behaved similarly. Enticed by the opportunities scattered around them, they gradually dispersed!
Since opportunities were abundant.
The major sects had no intention of competing, for the time being, choosing instead to focus on gathering a plethora of natural treasures.
Therefore.
Even though they were dispersing, the major sects appeared to tacitly agree to head in separate directions.
Duan Ziming and the others perceived this as a positive development.
However, in Jiang Chen's eyes, this situation was far from ideal.
If they continued to disperse in this manner, Ye Fan would soon be beyond his surveillance reach.
Furthermore.
As the protagonist, Ye Fan was destined to experience certain plot developments.
For instance, demonstrating his prowess and putting others in their place.
Hence, there might be adversaries of Ye Fan within the Azure Jade Sect, who would become the targets of a well-deserved rebuke!
If Jiang Chen failed to prevent Ye Fan from flaunting his abilities and humbling others, he would be unable to acquire Villain Value.
Most crucially.
Jiang Chen hypothesized that the protagonist's Heavenly Fate Value was not inherent but rather accrued over time.
For example, seizing opportunities, showcasing his skills, and debunking others' claims to bolster confidence and reputation could potentially elevate the Heavenly Fate Value.
Therefore.
Jiang Chen was resolute in his decision to thwart Ye Fan's attempts to show off, as well as to deny him any opportunities.
'What should I do?'
'Should I simply barge in and instigate a group battle?'
'No, no, not only am I unfamiliar with Ye Fan's full capabilities, but even the Starry Abyss Sect's fellow disciples would disapprove of such a heedless tactic.'
'I could end up becoming a laughingstock.'
'...'
Jiang Chen found himself deep in thought, feeling somewhat perplexed.
He observed as the major sects dispersed, gradually increasing the distance between one another.
All of a sudden!
"All disciples of nearby sects, halt!"
Jiang Chen decisively activated his Yuan Power and shouted with great force!
The intensity of his voice was immense.
It was ear-splitting, leading people to question whether he had employed a special technique.
To avoid revealing the extent of his divine sense range, he had no choice but to resort to shouting.
Simultaneously.
Everyone's attention was effectively captured by Jiang Chen.
"Junior Brother Jiang Chen, what are you doing?"
Duan Ziming inquired, perplexed.
The other disciples also directed their gazes toward Jiang Chen, filled with bewilderment.
Disciples from other sects regarded Jiang Chen with derisive expressions on their faces.
"Hehe!"
"Let us stop?!"
"Who is he? If he commands us to halt, do we simply obey? Absurd!"
"I recognize this individual; he's Jiang Chen from the Starry Abyss Sect. A mere Early-stage Spiritual Awakening realm cultivator dares to utter such audacious words!"
"Heh, Jiang Chen? Never heard of him! Let's proceed, let's proceed, continue gathering natural treasures!"
"..."
Disciples from other sects scoffed one after another, preparing to resume their treasure collection.
However, among them, one individual's eyes suddenly flashed with a chilling, murderous intent!
That person was none other than Ye Fan!
