Checking in for 100,000 Years Chapter 1442: Unborn Secret Realm
Previously on Checking in for 100,000 Years...
Seven days later.
The direction of the Celestial Boat piloted by Ye Yun was slightly adjusted.
During this time, he had already found someone to pinpoint the location of the Slaughter Emperor Gate.
His current location was extremely far from the Slaughter Emperor Gate, but this distance also provided Ye Yun with time for practice.
Practicing along the way, there’s no need to rush.
As the Celestial Boat soared through clouds and mist during its flight, Dragon Tree suddenly raised an eyebrow with an odd expression.
"Buddha Lord, I have sensed a familiar Super Divine Dragon Breath in the distance..."
Dragon Tree spoke in a deep voice, then pointed in a certain direction with his finger.
"Is that so?"
An expression of joy appeared on Ye Yun’s face, as he steered the Celestial Boat towards it.
Hard work pays off.
After a journey, Dragon Tree made a discovery.
"Can you discern what this familiar presence is?"
After flying thousands of miles, Ye Yun gazed into the distance and asked.
Dragon Tree hesitated.
After a few seconds, he slowly said, "Buddha Lord, in that distant place, there seems to be a presence of Buddha Flame Root, which is very similar to mine, albeit particularly faint..."
Buddha Flame Root’s presence?
Ye Yun blinked, feeling somewhat incredulous.
Could it be that in the Ancient Realm, there are still root systems of Buddha Flame Root?
Years ago, the Formless Tree was cut down, and the Root of No Birth underneath was brought to the Ten Thousand Transformation Pond in the Divine Land, successfully evolving.
Thereafter.
The Root of No Birth took root in the Divine Land and its name changed—known to the Divine Earth Cultivators as Buddha Flame Root.
"Dragon Tree, if I remember correctly, there is only one Formless Tree in the entire Ancient Realm, isn’t there?"
Ye Yun pondered and asked.
"Yes, Buddha Lord, which is why I am surprised why there is Buddha Flame Root presence here; could it be that there is more than one Formless Tree?"
Dragon Tree replied curiously.
"Could the Root of No Birth underneath the Formless Tree have been part of your roots back then, possibly leaving some in the Ancient Realm?"
Ye Yun inquired with a smile.
"That should be unlikely..."
Dragon Tree thought and responded.
"Or perhaps, the Xuantian Sect used a section of your roots, creating a new root, and later someone brought it to the Ancient Realm?"
Ye Yun analyzed.
Dragon Tree nodded repeatedly, finding Buddha Lord’s words extremely plausible.
"Two Daoists!"
Suddenly, a shout came from behind, and a man in red swiftly flew over, landing beside the Celestial Boat.
Ye Yun glanced at the unfamiliar Divine King Realm Third Layer man in red and asked with a smile, "Daoist, is there something important?"
The man in red rubbed his hands and smiled: "Fellow Daoists, are you also going to the Unborn Secret Realm to seek opportunities?"
Unborn Secret Realm?
Ye Yun raised his eyebrow upon hearing the man in red.
Is there a link between the Unborn Secret Realm and the Root of No Birth sensed by Dragon Tree?
Otherwise, how could Dragon Tree sense this?
"Is the Unborn Secret Realm about to open?"
Ye Yun casually asked.
"It’s about to open, within the next two days. Such a great opportunity shouldn’t be missed, fellow Daoists, how about teaming up? It would increase our ability to resist the dangers!"
The man in red said with a smile.
With a familiar demeanor, he indeed gave a sense of friendliness.
Ye Yun chuckled lightly and asked: "What opportunity lies in the Unborn Secret Realm that compels you to exert so much effort?"
"From the Unborn Tree stems Root of No Birth, within it lies longevity! Fellow Daoist, haven’t you heard this saying?"
The man in red asked in surprise.
"Of course, I’ve heard it. The Root of No Birth has the power of longevity creation; its roots can be refined into various elixirs that extend life..."
Ye Yun thought for a moment before speaking.
Previously Dragon Tree told him these, thus Ye Yun remember naturally.
"Daoist, you’re not oblivious, haha!"
The man in red chuckled dryly twice, then pointed mysteriously in a direction: "You might have been cultivating in remote places long-term, thus might not know of the existence of the Unborn Secret Realm. Actually, this realm contains a large amount of Root of No Birth, opening once every ten thousand years. Any cultivator in the Divine King Realm can enter and hunt for the roots for longevity!"
"Ah, so that’s it. Let’s journey together, Daoist..."
Ye Yun feigned an enlightened smile.
He hadn’t expected this Unborn Secret Realm to have a large amount of Root of No Birth.
It’s intriguing indeed.
These roots placed into a secret realm, specifically for the Ancient Realm cultivators to practice and kill, what is the real intention?
"Buddha Lord, I am very interested in the Root of No Birth in the Unborn Secret Realm, perhaps we might obtain some important clues..."
Dragon Tree transmitted secretly.
"Mm."
Ye Yun nodded.
Once entering the Unborn Secret Realm, with Dragon Tree’s capabilities, naturally he could discern its mysteries.
The man in red landed on the Celestial Boat, boldly clasping his fists, and asked with a smile: "I am Gu Zhan Tian; may I ask for your esteemed names?"
"Ye Yun."
Ye Yun concealed his intentions with a smile and then pointed at Dragon Tree: "He is the guardian from my household..."
Gu Zhan Tian looked at the purple-haired young man in plain clothes, exclaiming in surprise: "This Daoist exudes a Buddha Intent, could he be a distinguished Buddhist expert?"
"Indeed, Dragon Tree possesses profound attainments on the Buddhist Path."
Ye Yun nodded and said.
"In our Ancient Realm, the Buddha Sect Power isn’t much, and one wonders about Dragon Tree Daoist’s true cultivation base?"
Gu Zhan Tian asked with meaningful intent.
Ye Yun chuckled lightly: "Just a few layers higher than mine..."
Although Dragon Tree is half-step God Emperor Realm, his profound Buddhist Law attributes an aura of Buddha Intent, concealing his original realm.
Thus those with lower cultivation than Dragon Tree can’t discern his true cultivation base.
"So strong..." Gu Zhan Tian exclaimed twice more, then chatted with Ye Yun about the Unborn Secret Realm.
The Celestial Boat continued to move.
After a bout of chatting, Ye Yun further understood the Unborn Secret Realm.
This Unborn Secret Realm has existed in the Ancient Realm for about ten million years, opening once every ten thousand years.
Any cultivator above the Divine King Realm in the Ancient Dark World can enter.
Inside the Unborn Secret Realm, there are numerous ferocious Root of No Birth that attack intruding cultivators.
Once engaged, it’s unending, with a fight to the finish.
Thus, not everyone wishes to enter the Unborn Secret Realm.
Many God Emperor Realm cultivators have perished inside the Unborn Secret Realm.
Cultivators with lower cultivation often prefer to group together to defend against the Root of No Birth’s attacks.
On slaying a Root of No Birth, everyone shares the spoils.
"The timing of the Unborn Secret Realm opening seems quite coincidental..."
Ye Yun’s eyes flickered like flames.
He recalled when the Formless Tree appeared in the Divine Land, its memory was already fragmented.
Perhaps, before the Formless Tree reached the Divine Land from the Ancient Realm, part of its roots were cut, nurturing a large number of Roots of No Birth.
These roots are kept within a secret realm, through mutual slaughter, absorbing life force, to achieve the evolutionary purpose of the Roots of No Birth.
"Such meticulous arrangements must have some hidden secret behind them..."
Ye Yun thought secretly.
A day later.
The Celestial Boat suddenly stopped, not far from them in the void was a gray vortex entrance.
Outside the entrance.
On the summit of the mountain range stretched in the void below, there gathered a vast number of cultivators, totaling about a million.
