Chapter 112: All Around Gathering
“Boom~”
On this day, a crack suddenly opened in the sky.
However, this crack was only a tiny slit.
This indicated that the ancient secret realm was about to fully open.
Even though the secret realm hadn’t completely opened yet, an extremely rich spiritual energy gushed out from that crack.
In fact, this outpouring of spiritual energy turned the already barren southern half of Qinzhou into a cultivation paradise.
As for those roaming cultivators, they immediately sat down to enter their meditative states.
What’s even wilder is that due to this dense spiritual energy, the flowers and trees in southern Qinzhou began to grow like they were on steroids.
And as time went by, Qinzhou was not just hosting a ton of cultivators.
Even birds and beasts started to flock in from all directions.
“Buzz buzz buzz…”
The void portal opened once more.
Now, several major sects from within the Nine Regions also came through the void portal into Qinzhou.
In no time, the entire Qinzhou was overcrowded.
When you stepped outside, it was like the sky and the earth were teeming with people.
Liu Shunyi was a bit shocked witnessing this scene.
Since coming to this cultivation realm, it was the first time he saw cultivators from all around gathering like this.
And these were just the middle and lower tier cultivators.
According to the Hall of Yama, beside the secret realm, there was another little world.
That’s where all the big shots were hanging out.
“Tsk tsk, no wonder Senior Sister Ji said if the ancient secret realm opened, a ton of people would die. Now it all makes sense,” Liu Shunyi thought.
He couldn’t even begin to imagine how chaotic it would be if all the people from the Nine Regions started fighting each other.
As for those Foundation Establishment and Qi Refinement cultivators, being part of that chaos would probably leave them as nothing but dust in the aftermath.
Zhao Gou sighed at this moment.
“Not only that, but at the forefront of the secret realm’s opening, there will be a round of battles and purges. Roaming cultivators without sect protection will all be chased away. Those who refuse to leave will either join a sect or die!”
Liu Shunyi fell into silence.
Zhao Gou then asked, “What about our Qinglian Sect? Should we consider accepting roaming cultivators?”
Liu Shunyi rolled his eyes.
“You run the Qinglian Sect’s base; why are you asking me?”
Zhao Gou sighed.
“The position I hold is largely thanks to you, but I just think that those willing to join should be welcomed, while those who don’t want to join shouldn’t be forced!”
Liu Shunyi nodded.
“What about the Hall of Yama?”
Zhao Gou inquired again.
Liu Shunyi shook his head directly.
“Let Lin Wudao deal with that!”
Zhao Gou nodded.
But he was still a bit confused.
“Before, you quietly got rid of the Angry Heaven Palace when they entered Qinzhou. Why not take action this time?”
Liu Shunyi sighed.
“The Angry Heaven Palace was specifically hunting, which is why we executed that plan. We can fend them off once or twice, but we can’t keep going to war over people who aren’t even involved. If we really push them too hard, they could retaliate, and we wouldn’t stand a chance.”
Zhao Gou nodded.
He felt that Liu Shunyi was making a lot of sense.
You should stick to what you can handle.
However, Liu Shunyi looked at Zhao Gou curiously.
“You said you wanted to talk to me about something, but it’s been two or three days and you still haven’t said!”
Zhao Gou scratched his head a bit sheepishly.
“It’s not that; my reputation has become quite large recently. Given my Golden Core level, I can barely handle the pressure of it all. So, can you spare me a few of those patterned pills you make?”
Liu Shunyi: “…”
“Listen, I don’t care. You’re the one who pushed me to this level; now you have to take responsibility.”
Liu Shunyi nearly spat out a mouthful of blood.
“If you can’t say anything useful, just shut it!”
Zhao Gou chuckled.
“Mainly, I have a feeling that once I step into the Nascent Soul stage, my medical skills could reach a new level!”
“I even have this feeling that if my medical skills advanced further, I could really bring the dead back to life.”
Liu Shunyi was stunned.
“That’s absurd!”
Zhao Gou pondered.
“I can feel it in my heart.”
Liu Shunyi thought for a bit.
He handed over a Golden Spirit Pill with seven patterns etched on it to Zhao Gou.
Zhao Gou’s eyes lit up.
“Thanks, buddy, I’ll head into seclusion for a while.”
Zhao Gou snatched the pill and walked off.
Liu Shunyi: “…”
—
As time passed, the entire Qinzhou began to quiet down increasingly.
Even the overall atmosphere in Qinzhou grew extremely tense.
Liu Shunyi was enjoying a rather leisurely time during this period.
With Zhao Gou in seclusion, and although the disciples of Qinglian Sect had become more familiar with him, they were all diligently training for the ancient secret realm.
Liu Shunyi was instead busy adapting to the powers of the Nascent Soul and observing the underhanded fights between other sects from a bystander’s perspective.
Of course, after Liu Shunyi settled down and carefully grasped the strength of the Nascent Soul, he discovered that Nascent Soul cultivators could teleport.
Wherever the thoughts went, the body followed.
What a gratifying feeling!
It reminded Liu Shunyi of a saying.
You can go wherever you want, like a free bird.
Liu Shunyi even learned some unique abilities exclusive to the Nascent Soul stage.
It truly was the case that upon reaching the Nascent Soul Realm, you could wreak havoc on earth.

Of course, Liu Shunyi also witnessed the brutality of the cultivation world.
In just the past few days, the number of cultivator deaths was like cutting wheat—one after another.
As those cultivators’ corpses and blood watered the ground, the plants in Qinzhou grew like crazy.
Even some sects with a bit of fame were directly wiped out.
The situation was already dire before the secret realm even fully opened.
Liu Shunyi couldn’t even begin to fathom just how chaotic it would become once the secret realm fully activated.
But Liu Shunyi didn’t pry into any of it.
It’s none of my business!
Right now, that’s how it was.
Swish~
At that moment, a Shadow Guard appeared before Liu Shunyi.
“Lord Yama, this is what we’ve recently gathered about the Angry Heaven Palace’s intentions regarding the ancient secret realm, and it includes some information related to your Senior Sister!”
“Oh!”
Liu Shunyi curiously took the document.
After reading through it carefully, he furrowed his brow.
“Dragon Source Disk, River and Mountain Seal, Repair Heaven Pill, Sword Soul of Nothingness!”
The next piece of information revealed that Ji Suying had been preparing a lot of items lately, and her targets seemed to include all those items as well.
Moreover, there was an elimination plan targeting the Angry Heaven Palace.
In short, through this secret realm setup, they aimed to trap Ji Suying inside the secret realm.
It seemed that this entire series of plans by the Angry Heaven Palace was directed against Ji Suying.
After reaching this point, Liu Shunyi fell into a deep silence.
Because he discerned a clear message from this intelligence.
The Angry Heaven Palace is the resurrected antagonist.
Ji Suying is the resurrected protagonist.
“Heh, this is getting quite interesting. I just wonder who will come out on top this time, the protagonist or the antagonist!”
The Shadow Guard scratched his head: “Lord, aren’t you going to take action?”
Liu Shunyi paused: “Take action? For what?”
The Shadow Guard was left dumbfounded.
At that moment, Liu Shunyi remarked, “The Hall of Yama belongs to Yama. What does that have to do with me, Liu Shunyi?”
Shadow Guard: “???”
