"What is going on?"
The sudden, violent vibration startled the Elder and the rest of the group.
It was common knowledge that the space within the Returning Ruins Secret Realm was exceptionally stable; the laws here were so firm that even those residing in the Primordial Spirit Realm found flight impossible.
What kind of monumental event could cause the entire secret realm to shudder like this!
Only the man dressed in the Purple Dragon Robe perceived the source of the disturbance, and his face lit up with joy.
He understood the significance of this event based on the ancient records bequeathed by his ancestors.
"There is no cause for alarm; these are merely the preparations for the Immortal Palace to open its gates."
"The Immortal Palace is finally opening?"
Upon hearing these words, the other members of the clan felt their shock transform into pure elation.
"Indeed. According to our ancestral texts, the Immortal Palace opens approximately ten years after the Returning Ruins Secret Realm manifests, granting an opportunity for everyone within the realm to enter.
Looking at the calendar, it has been nearly ten years since we first arrived."
The man in the Purple Dragon Robe gave a firm nod.
"The Clan Leader has just finished his period of seclusion, having stabilized his Nine Tribulations Cultivation, and now the Immortal Palace is opening. This is surely a magnificent omen for our clan’s rise to power!"
The Elder's beard shook as he spoke, his voice thick with excitement.
"A magnificent omen indeed!" The man in the Purple Dragon Robe let out a boisterous laugh. "Since the heavens have given us this sign, we must not linger. Let us depart!"
He took a bold step forward, leading the group toward the exit.
The other powerful experts of the Immortal Clan followed suit, eagerly dismantling their defensive arrays to keep pace with him.
Experts from various other factions were equally electrified by the news.
"Is this tremor the signal that the Immortal Palace is at last opening?"
"By my calculations, it is certainly time for the gates to be revealed!"
"At long last, it opens. Back then, our ancestors were unable to pierce the barriers to reach the true Immortal Palace. This time, after years of preparation, we will surely shatter the obstacles and fulfill the regrets of our forefathers!"
Feeling the vibrations echoing through the secret realm, the masters of other sects displayed looks of pure joy.
They abandoned the palaces where they had been stationed, their gazes fixed intently on the location of the Immortal Palace.
The Immortal Palace was now shimmering with radiant light, sending waves of majestic aura surging across every corner of the secret realm.
"Senior Brother Yu Jian, the Immortal Palace is on the verge of opening,"
Qing Xii stood at the entrance of their residence, staring toward the horizon with a grave expression.
"Yes, the true trial is about to begin,"
Yu Jian’s expression was equally serious.
The previous acts of breaking seals and scavenging minor treasures within the various palaces were nothing more than appetizers.
Because of this, the different factions had managed to maintain a fragile state of peace.
Only Mo Tushan of the Black and White Temple had violated this unspoken truce by wiping out two separate forces.
The real drama would only commence once the Immortal Palace was accessible.
When that time comes, the various sects will discard their masks of civility. The moment a significant treasure is discovered, a bloody conflict will likely break out.
"According to the Jade Scroll left by our Grandmaster, one cannot simply walk in once the Immortal Palace opens. A series of trials must be cleared before one can venture deeper. Many years ago, several of our most brilliant grandmasters only managed to pass five tests before failing to reach the inner sanctum."
The specific details recorded in the Jade Scroll by the Sword Master replayed in Yu Jian’s mind.
He was well aware that the opening of the palace did not guarantee successful entry.
However, whether they entered or not was secondary; the most critical objective was ensuring Mo Tushan did not have a smooth path inside.
As long as Evil Path factions like the Black and White Temple and Netherworld Palace were prevented from seizing opportunities within the Immortal Palace, the balance of power in the outside world could be preserved.
This was a result the Sky-breaking Sword Sect was willing to settle for.
"Senior Brother Yu Jian, since the Immortal Palace is opening, Mo Tushan will likely cease his seclusion. Should we still move against him later?" Qing Xii asked suddenly.
"There is no need." Yu Jian thought for a moment before shaking his head. "When the various forces congregate, attacking the Black and White Temple would only play into the hands of others.
Do not overlook the Netherworld Palace and the Pavilion of the Enchanting Immortal; those two powers are also significant threats.
If we exhaust ourselves fighting the Black and White Temple, they will simply watch with glee or strike us from the shadows."
Qing Xii acknowledged this point and sighed. "Then we have no choice but to let Mo Tushan go for the time being."
Inside a different palace, thick demonic Qi swirled in a chaotic vortex, filling the entire hall.
Suddenly, the dark mist began to fluctuate, rushing toward the center of the room.
The Qi was rapidly sucked into a black, nine-story treasure tower hovering in the air, revealing the gathered disciples of the Black and White Temple.
Sitting in the center with his eyes shut, Mo Tushan snapped them open and beckoned the black tower into his palm with a sharp movement.
Checking the condition of the artifact, a look of triumph crossed his face.
"Excellent. The essence blood from the Luoyun Sect has been fully refined, and the Nine Abyss Demon Tower has reached its peak power. Now, neither Yu Jian nor Hei Ming can hope to rival me."
Mo Tushan felt immensely proud and satisfied with his progress.
Had he not acted with such ruthlessness to slaughter those two sects and harvest their blood, he could never have restored this Magical Treasure to its full potential in such a short window of time.
With this artifact in his possession, he felt confident enough to face even a Great Power at the Nine Tribulations of the Primordial Spirit Realm!
Combined with his other hidden cards, Mo Tushan was certain he could utterly crush Yu Jian, Qing Xii, and Hei Ming.
"Senior Brother Tushan, is this shaking a sign that the Immortal Palace is opening?"
A disciple from the Black and White Temple spoke up to ask.
"Indeed. Just as the ancestors said, the Immortal Palace opens automatically ten years after the Returning Ruins Secret Realm appears. That moment has arrived."
