Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 832 - 420: The Ten Thousand Beasts Secret Realm Five Years Later, Senior Brother Xiao Huo’s Fortuitous Encounter (Part 3)
Previously on Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World...
An unparalleled opportunity has arrived for the countless cultivators existing between heaven and earth.
"To be fair, it isn’t entirely impossible," the voice mused.
"The Great Void World holds far too many enigmas; the waters here are indeed incredibly deep."
"I suspect that many monsters from the ancient era are actually hidden within the Great Void World."
"Using the power of Life Source Stones, they remain in a state of eternal slumber."
"They are all waiting for the arrival of the coming era, hoping to finally achieve immortality."
"If my intuition is right, the future will likely be an age of great contention."
"There is no telling just how many prodigies will emerge during this period."
The Fire Dragon Tripod spoke these words softly.
The mere thought of such a scenario filled it with a sense of dread.
Genius cultivators from various historical epochs are lying dormant, waiting to compete in these current times.
The terror of this era will undoubtedly far exceed any previous moment in the history of the Great Void World.
The sheer intensity of the upcoming struggle is bound to go beyond all expectations.
"Fire Dragon Daoist, what actually happened during the ancient era? What kind of calamity took place?"
"Why are you always so vague about it? Is it a topic that simply cannot be discussed?"
Xiao Huo questioned with curiosity. He had always been fascinated by the events of the ancient era, but the Fire Dragon Tripod’s constant reluctance to share details only served to sharpen his interest.
He could not fathom what sort of catastrophe could make the Fire Dragon Daoist so cautious.
Even after the passage of countless years, the spirit still harbored a lingering fear, terrified beyond all measure.
"It is not my intention to hide the truth, but such matters are simply impossible to speak of."
"It is because they are taboo."
"Misfortune might be invited the moment those things are uttered."
"Your cultivation is currently far too weak; you cannot afford to get involved in such matters for now."
The Fire Dragon Daoist spoke with extreme gravity.
A visible expression of apprehension flickered across its face.
In truth, it had attempted to recount the events of the ancient era before, but the moment it started to speak, a crushing sense of terror immediately descended.
It felt as though speaking out loud would directly summon disaster.
Frankly, it had never imagined that such darkness and misfortune could still persist after so many years.
This realization made it certain that the depths of the Great Void World were truly profound.
While the Great Void World might seem peaceful and still on the surface, the undercurrents beneath are likely already turning turbulent.
"I understand."
Xiao Huo could only nod in agreement.
He was a cultivator who understood the weight of serious matters.
Throughout his long path of cultivation, he had become aware of many secrets and taboos.
If even the Fire Dragon Tripod was this fearful, one could only imagine the level of terror involved.
This was certainly not something a practitioner at the mere Foundation Establishment stage could hope to provoke.
Perhaps in the future, once he ascended to Divinity Transformation or even higher realms, he would finally be worthy of learning about the ancient era.
"Let us return for now."
"You need to digest the rewards gained from this journey."
"It is possible that after this period of seclusion, you will soon break through to the Golden Core stage."
"Once that happens, you will be capable of seizing even greater opportunities on the Western Continent."
The Fire Dragon Tripod spoke with deep significance.
"Understood."
Shortly after, Xiao Huo made his way back to the Celestial Pine Mountain Range on the Western Continent. The area was already blanketed in a thick, endless white mist. With the exception of the Primordial Talisman Sect cultivators, any living soul who wandered into the fog would become completely lost.
This location had long ago earned the reputation of being a forbidden zone on the Western Continent.
Even Tier Four demon cultivators who dared to enter would find themselves disoriented, leading to their death and the dissolution of their Dao.
Naturally, as a disciple of the sect, he possessed the means to withstand the local power.
He quickly located the Gate of Space leading to the Ten Thousand Beasts Secret Realm and finally stepped back into that familiar realm once more.
