War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens - Chapter 4233

4233 Third Brother

Following Hou Dong’s introductions of the imminent Supreme God, Qiu Ping and Jiang Yu Wei also introduced the people they brought.

The person Qiu Ping brought was also an imminent Supreme God. Similar to Hou Dong, Qiu Ping also made a point to mention this fact.

As for Jiang Yu Wei, she only revealed the veiled young woman’s name and did not mention how strong she was.

“Since we’re all here, let’s go in. Although we hid that place, who knows if anything happened. If someone discovered the Formation and attacked it, the natural secret realm would move to another place,” Qiu Ping said.

!!

The natural secret realms on the Realm Battlefield could only be found by luck. One could choose not to enter it immediately and hide it with a Formation. However, if the Formation was not deactivated properly and was forcibly destroyed, it would disturned the natural secret realm, and it would move to another place. The entrance of the natural secret realm was unstable in nature. If the fluctuations of energy were too strong, it would cause the natural secret realm to move.

Hou Dong also became impatient after listening to Qiu Ping’s words. He quickly urged, “Let’s go now.”

Since everyone was in a hurry, Hou Dong did not bicker with Hou Lian Yu. He was focused on getting to their destination as soon as possible.

On the Realm Battlefield, the use of flying ships was prohibited. If one brought a flying ship out, the flying ship would be instantly destroyed by the energy that enforced the rules on the Realm Battlefield.

Those who entered the Realm Battlefield for the first time would be warned by their elders not to use flying ships on the Realm Battlefield. Bringing out a flying ship on the Realm Battlefield was no different from destroying the flying ship.

…

The Realm Battlefield was mostly barren and dark. The mountains were also barren. There were very few places with plants. Strangely, the plants here were not verdant, but withered and yellow.

Duan Ling Tian followed Hou Lian Yu and the others as they traveled through a mountain range. After a while, they finally arrived in a valley. When they entered the valley, he saw a very inconspicuous cave. However, after walking deeper into the cave, he saw a place that was like paradise. It was rather dark here so he could only see the scene clearly after a few people conjured up flames.

The imminent Supreme God whom Qiu Ping brought, a middle-aged man, said, slightly surprised, “This place is very well hidden!”

The middle-aged man came from a supreme-rank sect in the Divine Offering Land, and his sect also had some connections to Qiu Ping’s Misty Rain Divine Sect. This was also one of the reasons Qiu Ping selected him.

Although it seemed like Qiu Ping was not very familiar with the middle-aged man, Duan Ling Tian speculated that Qiu Ping left the Realm Battlefield to invite the middle-aged man here. On the Realm Battlefield, it was impossible to send messages through Soul Pearls. Such a restriction naturally did not apply once one left the Realm Battlefield.

Similarly, Duan Ling Tian also suspected that Jiang Yu Wei from the Misty Rain Divine Sect left the Realm Battlefield to invite the young woman here.

On the contrary, the two naive members of the Hou clan only searched for people on the Realm Battlefield. Naturally, it was also possible that the duo did not know any good candidates so they had to search for strangers instead.

Compared to sects, clans were usually rather isolated so their members did not know as many people compared to the members of sects.

Hou Dong grinned, looking a little proud as he said, “Of course, it’s well hidden! Otherwise, others would have found it before we did!”

Hou Lian Yu, Hou Dong, Qiu Ping, and Jiang Yu Wei discovered the natural secret realm together. Although the four of them were quite powerful, they were still not powerful enough. As such, they traveled together on the Realm Battlefield to ensure their safety. There were many people who grouped together for this reason on the Realm Battlefield. However, traveling in a group had both advantages and disadvantages. One needed to be wary of one’s companion and guard against betrayal as well.

Hou Dong looked at Qiu Ping and said, “Qiu Ping, deactivate the Formation. You’re the one who laid the first layer of the Formation so only you can remove it. I’ll remove the second layer since I was the one who laid it.”

The Formation was actually not complicated. There were four layers to the Formation, and each of them laid a layer. Each of them could easily remove the respective layers. However, to remove the layer of the Formation, they need to offer up their blood. This was to prevent skilled Formation masters from deactivating the Formation. It was a simple but effective Formation.

The four people stepped forward one after another to remove the layers of the Formation.

After all four layers were removed, a mysterious energy surged in the cave before a pitch-black vortex appeared in front of Duan Ling Tian and the others.

As soon as the vortex appeared, a message appeared in the minds of Duan Ling Tian and the others.

“This natural secret realm was discovered by four advanced Emperors of Gods. A maximum of ten advanced Emperors of Gods can enter the realm. As soon as the first person steps into the realm, it will open up immediately. The realm will be open for a month. After that, everyone in the realm will be transported to the nearest base camp.”

The others did not seem surprised upon hearing this message. It was as though they had already known this.

Conversely, Duan Ling Tian was slightly surprised. He only knew that secret realms, which were opened with battle merits, did not send those inside to a base camp when the time was up. Instead, the people in the secret realm would be sent to random places on the Realm Battlefield. There was even a chance of being sent to the inner area of the Realm Battlefield.

Duan Ling Tian sighed inwardly. ‘It seems like there are preferential treatments for those who enter natural secret realms. However, I have never heard about this from Third Senior Brother. Is he unaware of it? Or, perhaps, he’s aware of it but didn’t pay much attention to it since he’s never encountered a natural secret realm before. Perhaps, he didn’t expect me to enter a natural secret realm so he didn’t tell me about it. I wonder how Third Senior Brother is doing now. Now that we parted ways, he should have an easier time, right?”

Duan Ling Tian knew very well that he was a burden to Yang Yu Chen while they wandered the Profound Zen Battlefield, the Realm Battlefield of the Profound Energy Land and the Zen Boundary Land. Without him, Yang Yu Chen would have long gone to the inner area of the Profound Zen Battlefield.

‘I wonder how he’d react when he finds out that I entered a natural secret realm? Previously, when he briefly mentioned the natural secret realm, I could detect a hint of regret in his voice. Clearly, he regrets not coming across any natural secret realm.’

Duan Ling Tian was filled with anticipation when he thought about this.

‘When we meet again, I’ll tell Third Senior Brother about entering the natural secret realm. He’ll definitely feel envious!’

…

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian could never imagine that his Third Senior Brother, Yang Yu Chen, was in a natural secret realm.

After accompanying Duan Ling Tian to the Divine Sanction Battlefield, Yang Yu Chen returned to the Profound Zen Battlefield. Coincidentally, the place where he was transported to was near a natural secret realm.

“Junior brother, you’re truly my lucky star!” Yang Yu Chen sighed emotionally. If he did not accompany Duan Ling Tian to the Divine Sanction Battlefield, he would not have found the natural secret realm.

One could only encounter the natural realm by luck. It was a happy coincidence that Yang Yu Chen was transported to that place.

The natural secret realm that Yang Yu Chen found could accommodate up to three intermediate Supreme Gods. As such, he did not enter the secret realm immediately. Instead, he went to the nearest base camp, left the Realm Battlefield to return to the Profound Energy Land, and found two intermediate Supreme Gods to enter the natural secret realm with him.

The two intermediate Supreme Gods were among the few sworn brothers Yang Yu Chen had in the Profound Energy Land. One was a sectless cultivator and the other was from a prime supreme-rank force. Both of them were very powerful as well. At the very least, they were not weaker than Yang Yu Chen. However, it had to be said that they were much older than Yang Yu Chen.

“Third Brother, you’re so lucky! To think that you found a natural secret realm! Amazing!”

“Even the air in the natural secret realm smells different.”

The duo who entered the natural secret realm with Yang Yu Chen looked young. One was dressed in a pale golden robe; he was handsome and possessed a pair of piercing eyes. The other one was dressed in a white robe and held a folded fan in his hand, looking like a scholar.

The duo was not only good friends of Yang Yu Chen, but they were Yang Yu Chen’s sworn brothers. One of them was more than 3,000 years older than Yang Yu Chen, and the other was more than 1,000 years older than Yang Yu Chen.

Yang Yu Chen met the duo on the Realm Battlefield when he was 10,000 years old. At that time, the three of them were attacked by a powerhouse so they joined forces. They entrusted their lives to each other and trusted each other, and as such, they managed to survive. After that, one of them suggested that they become sworn brothers.

The white-clad young man who was dressed like a scholar was the oldest. At that time, he was also the strongest among the three. As such, he became the ‘Big Brother’.

As for the handsome golden-clad young man, who was from a prime supreme-rank force, he became the ‘Second Brother’. Although at that time his strength was no different than that of Yang Yu Chen, he became the ‘Second Brother’ because he was a little older than Yang Yu Chen.

As such, Yang Yu Chen, the youngest of the trio, became the ‘Third Brother’. He did not care much about being the youngest. After all, at that time, he was also ranked third in terms of seniority in the Myriad Laws Academy’s Inner Palace faction.

“It’s all thanks to my junior brother!” Yang Yu Chen said without hiding anything. He trusted Big Brother and Second Brother unconditionally. During the 10,000 years they knew each other, the duo had never let him down. The duo was reliable and never hesitated whenever he asked them for help.

As the saying went, ‘Time will reveal a man’s heart’. After getting along for more than 10,000 years, even if they only saw each other from time to time, their relationship grew stronger and stronger to the point where they were even closer than biological brothers were.
