I Outworked the Entire Cultivation World

Chapter 560: Chapter 512: Small Secret Realm

In the depths of the Alchemy Hall, within a stone chamber, the terrifying pressure surged out, and a tall and a short Late-Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator outside the door immediately fell to their knees, suppressed and unable to move.

”Who dares to disturb my cultivation?!”

A cold female voice was heard, causing the two to tremble in fear as they quickly pleaded for mercy.

”Spare us, Old Ancestor, we entered this place by mistake, had no intention to disturb, we’ll leave right now, immediately!”

The two tried to free themselves, but the disparity in strength was too great. Other than being able to move their mouths and eyes, they couldn’t move their bodies at all.

There was silence inside, and the two exchanged glances, utterly disbelieving that there was a living monster in this Secret Realm of the Hidden Immortal Sect, which had perished over three thousand years ago.

Three thousand years without dying; isn’t that a Divinity Transformation Cultivator?

”I shall ask you a few questions; answer truthfully.”

”Yes, yes!”

”What Realm is outside, and who is the current Realm Lord?”

The two exchanged glances again, was this truly an old monster who had lived for ages? This was surely the end!

The tall cultivator swallowed hard and replied, ”Reporting to the Old Ancestor, outside is the Doumu Realm under the Northern Star Alliance, and the current Realm Lord is Immortal Monarch Fatian.”

Inside the stone chamber, Jiang Yuebai’s eyes lit up.

She knew the Doumu Realm, and this Immortal Monarch Fatian was also famous. Back when she was working as a bookstore assistant in Sea Suppression City in the Green Dragon Realm, she had seen many tales about Immortal Monarch Fatian.

He is the only Mahayana Immortal Monarch in the entire Upper Realm to have cultivated the Dharma Dao Fruit, whose words, when spoken, become law. Here, ’law’ does not refer to spells but to regulations.

The Supreme Elder had also mentioned him, saying if he decreed that everyone in the Realm should take their left foot first while walking, then in his realm, no one could step with their right foot first.

”Do you know the Green Dragon Realm?” Jiang Yuebai asked again, trying to determine the current time.

The same voice replied, ”Our cultivation is low; we have not visited other Realms.”

Jiang Yuebai sighed; it seemed she could only investigate after leaving.

She asked more questions about the Secret Realm and the region outside it, and they answered honestly.

The exit of the Secret Realm was in the valley behind the Hidden Immortal Sect’s back mountain, where the Transmission Array used to be. This Secret Realm opens every twelve years, and by now, there’s nothing much left. Not even a single beast can be seen inside, so only a few Foundation Establishment Cultivators come in to try their luck.

Jiang Yuebai used her Divine Sense to grab the storage bags around their waists, opened a slit in the stone chamber’s door, and pulled the storage bags in.

The two outside were alarmed, but they couldn’t resist against absolute power.

The Foundation Establishment Cultivators didn’t have much; their Magic Treasure Talismans and Elixirs were of no use to Jiang Yuebai.

”A map of the Doumu Realm?”

Jiang Yuebai took out the map, and underneath it, she saw a book, the two characters on the cover immediately catching her attention.

”Five Flavors Collection!”

Jiang Yuebai quickly took it out, set the storage bag aside, and flipped through the Five Flavors Collection in her hand, discovering that it was a travelogue written by Wuwei Mountain Man after attaining Divinity Transformation.

Bai Jiuyou had previously asked her to upgrade the Five Elements Lotus Platform, and the method of refining this artifact was in Wuwei Mountain Man’s hands. Finding her and asking her for a way to upgrade it would definitely be more appropriate.

And there’s the matter with Ye Shiming, which also needed to be resolved with Wuwei Mountain Man.

Jiang Yuebai didn’t delve into it further; she left behind the map, the collection, and all the Spirit Stones, then tossed the two storage bags back to the two outside.

”You may each ask me one question.”

The two outside, seeing the storage bags returned and unsure what Jiang Yuebai had taken, gladly listened when she said they could ask questions.

The taller one, who had been actively answering questions, eagerly asked, ”Please, Old Ancestor, grant guidance on a Core Formation Method.”

Both of them were at the Late-Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivation, nearing Core Formation.

Standing inside the stone chamber, Jiang Yuebai collected everything she could and sent out a Divine Thought.

She had plenty of Core Formation methods; she granted him a secret technique and an Elixir Formula.

The tall cultivator absorbed the Divine Thought and turned red with excitement, ”Thank you, Old Ancestor, thank you, Old Ancestor.”

Then, the usually reserved and seemingly calm shorter cultivator slowly asked, with some hesitation, ”Could the Old Ancestor bestow an Earth Grade Cultivation Technique... a technique?”

The taller cultivator was shocked, his eyes wide in disbelief. Could he ask for a cultivation technique too? If he could get a technique, wouldn’t just getting a Core Formation method be a loss?

”An Earth Grade Cultivation Technique? Even if I gave it to you, could you handle it?”

The shorter cultivator furrowed his brow, feeling immense pressure.

After a moment, the shorter cultivator relaxed his brow, a trace of regret flashing in his eyes. He received a Mystic Grade Cultivation Technique, though not Earth Grade, it was complete and many times better than what he currently practiced.

”Get out of here, both of you!”

Jiang Yuebai shouted from within the stone chamber, unleashing her full pressure, sweeping through the entire Secret Realm.

The Foundation Establishment Cultivators searching here and there were caught off guard, overwhelmed by this tremendous pressure, stopping whatever they were doing and falling to the ground.

Those with weaker constitutions spat out a mouthful of blood.

Fortunately, the pressure only swept over them briefly and was quickly retracted. Discovering a High-Level Cultivator here, and with nothing valuable, they quickly fled.

In the stone chamber, Jiang Yuebai fiddled with the ancient pill furnace, which was ordinary and even had a hole beneath it, only useful for feeding Jixiang.

After waiting for a quarter-hour, when she used her Divine Sense to sweep again, there was not a soul left in the Secret Realm.

In a flash, she appeared at the center of the Secret Realm, overlooking the whole place from above.

This place held only one mountain peak, having been searched many times, with most parts damaged, yet the main structure remained intact. The mountains were green, the water clear, and the forests lush.

To restore the Lotus Platform Cave Heaven, she had to be slightly overbearing and took this Small Secret Realm for herself.

In another flash, she appeared at the Transmission Array on the back mountain, carrying a bamboo shoot she had casually dug up, munching on it as she walked out of the space vortex on the Transmission Array. ℯℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

The other side of the space vortex was a mountain stream, surrounded by some ruined walls, covered in moss, resembling the remnants of this sect.

Jiang Yuebai summoned the Five Elements Lotus Platform, harnessing space power, and collected the vortex behind her, the swirling mass violently trembling, inch by inch swallowed by the green light emanating from the platform, and eventually assimilated into it.

”Why is the Lotus Platform emitting green light? Is it because of those bronze fragments from the Heaven-Swallowing Cauldron?”

From the distant forest, several beams of Tunneling Light approached, bearing the aura of Golden Core Cultivators, seemingly here to investigate.

Jiang Yuebai took a bite of the bamboo shoot, disappeared in a flash.

She dashed a hundred miles with Breaking through the Sky, following the map to reach the east of the Spiritual Mist Mountain Range, near the Small Secret Realm, where the grandest city in the vicinity, Xiiyun City, stood beside the great river.

The map indicated that Xiiyun City was surrounded by three major Cultivation Families, jointly managing the vast Spiritual Mist Mountain Range.

Jiang Yuebai circulated Chaos Qi within her, her features swirling like clouds and mist, her aura converged inward into Spiritual Energy, quickly transforming into an ordinary-looking Late-Stage Foundation Establishment female cultivator.

She wore a hunting outfit taken from a small village at the foot of a mountain earlier, with beast skin soft armor over a dark red narrow-sleeved long dress, leather bracers and leggings, her hair tied up high, ponytail flying, looking spirited and brisk.

”Into the city!”

Jiang Yuebai lifted her foot to step when she was suddenly tripped by a peculiar force, sprawling forward onto the ground.

Thud!

”Ouch—what’s going on? How could I, a Nascent Soul Cultivator, trip while walking?”

Jiang Yuebai quickly got up, releasing her Divine Sense to scan the surroundings, found several wild beasts, and readily chased them off fiercely.

”Luckily, no one saw, or my reputation would have been ruined.”

She looked down at her foot, realizing she had stepped with her right foot first before.

She tried stepping with her right foot first again, immediately feeling a clear binding force.

Jiang Yuebai opened her eyes wide in surprise, ”It turns out that stepping with the left foot first in this realm wasn’t just a metaphor, it’s real! What a bizarre rule! What kind of free time did a Mahayana Immortal Monarch have to make such a tedious rule?”

She glared, the Chaos Qi flowing through her, the bound right foot stepping forward forcefully, swiftly heading toward Xiiyun City.

Known as the ’Lawless Madman’ with a Chaos Body, though acquired, couldn’t be easily confined by ordinary laws.

Hmph~
