The sheer force of that purple magic palm had been undeniable; not a single faction present possessed the strength to withstand such a blow.
Consequently, the Yuan Immortal Clan finally crossed into the Star Sea Array, fortunately avoiding any immediate catastrophe.
Nonetheless, having fallen so far behind the others, a thick cloud of gloom settled over the group.
This disastrous start had planted a seed of dread in the hearts of everyone involved.
Despite the setback, they pushed themselves to the limit to close the gap.
In an instant, more than a dozen Star Sky Flying Boats were engaged in a high-speed pursuit within the Star Array, each racing to overtake the other.
Leading the pack, of course, was Lu Qing, who had been the very first to enter.
“Were all of those Star Sky Flying Boats gathered there just to wait for the Return to Ruins Secret Realm to open?”
As he was propelled forward by the Void Flying Boat, Lu Qing fell into deep thought.
Previously, his exit from the void had been so abrupt that he had plunged straight into the Star River Formation without a chance to survey his surroundings properly.
Even with that brief glimpse, however, he had detected a multitude of formidable auras emanating from those massive Star Sky Flying Boats.
A few of those presences were so potent they caused him to instinctively shudder with apprehension.
By charging past them in plain sight, he had committed a brazen act of defiance.
Lu Qing could easily picture the fury erupting among those powerhouses at that very moment.
He could even sense several intense auras trailing him closely, their arrival marked by unmistakable hostility.
“Void Flying Boat, you’ve truly landed me in a difficult spot this time,” Lu Qing mused with a touch of bitterness.
Had he been alone, his concern would be minimal.
He possessed numerous trump cards for survival, and over the years, the Primordial Spirit Mark he had anchored within his home world’s Origin had grown strong enough to facilitate his resurrection.
Even if he met his end within this Return to Ruins Secret Realm, he could still be reborn in his homeland.
The problem was that Little Li was currently by his side.
Should he perish, Little Li would surely share his fate—a consequence he found completely unacceptable.
Lu Qing reached out to sense the Secret Realm Stone Plate, an artifact of a great figure from the Witch Clan, which sat inside his Qiankun One Qi Bag.
He realized that while the Stone Plate could perceive its surroundings, it was unable to transmit any signals, as if an invisible barrier was severing the link between the plate and the Trial Secret Realm.
“Is this a property of the Star River Formation? If it can even suppress the transmission of the Secret Realm Stone Plate, the Immortal who forged this Return to Ruins Secret Realm must be just as powerful as that Witch Clan expert.”
With the realization that the Stone Plate was useless, Lu Qing understood that there was no path for retreat.
He could not, under any circumstances, desert Little Li.
“It appears I have no choice but to risk everything in a desperate struggle.”
A look of grim resolve entered Lu Qing’s eyes as his mind worked at lightning speed, formulating a strategy.
He began to meticulously recall the specific auras he had encountered before entering the Array.
“Of all the presences I felt, the most dominant ones came from the Flying Boats at the very front.”
“Those signatures included a demonic, malevolent energy, a few that were exceptionally pure, and one that radiated a piercing Sword Intent—wait, that Sword Intent!”
“That was the Heaven Breaking Sword Intent!”
As Lu Qing dissected the memories of those auras, a sudden realization struck him like a bolt of lightning.
One of the lead Flying Boats had been emitting a truly staggering Sword Intent.
It was a sensation he knew well: the Heaven Breaking Sword Intent.
Though it differed slightly from the version he had mastered, he was certain of its identity.
“Those who practice the Heaven Breaking Sword Qi... could it be that the lineage of the Potian Daoist has survived to this day? If that is the case…”
As Lu Qing speculated, a plan quickly took shape.
His own aura began to shift and transform until a subtle, nearly hidden wisp of Sword Intent began to flicker around his body.
Once his aura was successfully masked, Lu Qing began to scan his environment.
He noticed countless black vortexes of wind materializing and vanishing throughout the local space.
The energy coming from them made his Heart and Spirit recoil in instinctive fear.
He knew immediately that these black whirlwinds were lethal.
Even with his exceptionally powerful Physical Body, being pulled into one would likely result in his death.
Fortunately, the Star River Formation seemed to recognize the Void Flying Boat. Wherever the vessel traveled, the black winds moved aside, granting him a swift and unhindered passage.
In the distance, Lu Qing spotted a colossal vortex, within which the ethereal silhouette of an Immortal Palace floated.
He immediately activated his Superpower to gain more insight.
However, the rank of the Immortal Palace’s shadow was evidently too high; despite his efforts, no information was revealed to him.
Before he could try again, the Void Flying Boat dove straight into the heart of that massive vortex.
A sudden wave of vertigo washed over him.
By the time he steadied his Heart and Spirit, he was standing upon a vast plaza constructed entirely of Jade.
Before him loomed a magnificent, towering Immortal Palace, radiating a power that seemed to dominate the entire world.
Having delivered Lu Qing to his destination, the Void Flying Boat’s task was done.
It shrank back into a small silver vessel and came to rest in Lu Qing’s palm.
After stowing it away, Lu Qing began to examine his new surroundings.
“Is this truly the Return to Ruins Secret Realm? Is the very ground I’m standing on made of top-grade Spirit Jades?”
Inspecting the Jade beneath his feet, Lu Qing confirmed they were indeed top-grade Spirit Jades.
The plaza was gargantuan, appearing to be at least as large as an entire provincial domain back in his home world.
A plaza the size of a state, paved entirely in top-grade Spirit Jades…
The sheer scale of such wealth caused Lu Qing to gasp in shock.
The riches of a secret realm built by a transcendent Immortal were truly beyond the grasp of ordinary imagination, evidenced by this plaza alone.
However, Lu Qing could sense an Array enveloping the plaza, hiding a power that was nothing short of terrifying.
Any attempt to loot these Spirit Jades would surely trigger a defensive response that would shred even a Primordial Spirit Great Power into dust.
He also observed that the space here was incredibly stable—even more so than the Witch Clan’s realm. The very air felt heavy and dense.
Moving within such an environment was a challenge, even for someone of his strength.
Yet, this discovery actually brought Lu Qing a sense of relief.
In a space this stable, performing Space Shifting would be nearly impossible for anyone at the Primordial Spirit Realm, which worked in his favor.
Since his Cultivation was only at the first tribulation of the Primordial Spirit Realm, he had not yet mastered Space Law.
If his enemies were also unable to manipulate space, the playing field would be leveled.
“I wonder if flight is also prohibited here?”
Lu Qing gazed up at the majestic Immortal Palace, sensing the oppressive power it projected and the subtle danger lurking in the sky above.
It was clear that taking to the air was forbidden in this realm.
Violating such a taboo would undoubtedly result in a swift and lethal punishment.
This didn't catch Lu Qing off guard.
He had encountered similar restrictions in the Witch Clan’s Trial Secret Realm.
It seemed these supreme beings had little patience for lesser creatures flying through the pocket dimensions they had constructed.
It was a direct reflection of the creator's Will.
After a fruitless attempt to glean more from the Immortal Palace, Lu Qing shifted his focus to the surrounding complex.
The area was dotted with various buildings, each pulsing with significant power, though they were dwarfed by the central palace.
After a brief moment of consideration, Lu Qing used his movement technique to sprint toward the nearest structure.
Because the space was so heavy and flight was banned, he had to rely on his feet.
Thanks to his powerful Physical Body, however, his running speed remained formidable.
Just as he neared the building, a sudden ripple of spatial energy vibrated behind him.
Lu Qing immediately spun around to face the source.
