Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy

Chapter 2032  Into the Secret Realm

He was simply not well versed in the names of the many sects or what they looked like. Alex arrived at a section of the large hall where he waited for the people from the sect to arrive. More people kept adding into the room with more and more commotion throughout the many people.

There was some hostility between the people, some of which, Alex noticed, were quite strong. The highest cultivation realm in the room belonged to those in the Immortal Ascendant 9th realm, but that did not mean that the person was only that strong.

There was someone\'s Battle Power to keep note of as well. Someone in the Immortal Ascendant 9th realm could very well be stronger than someone in the Immortal Origin realm. Cultivation base meant little when he was together amongst those who were probably the best of the best to be chosen into sects.

There were some rogue cultivators as well, but most of them were not that strong.

Alex continued surveying the area and quickly learned about a few important sects to which the cultivators belonged. Surprisingly, disciples of the Spring Grass sect and the Rosesteel sect were there too.

\'People from the other continents come here too?\' Alex thought. Were they coming here for the sabers or just to get involved?

The commotion grew all of a sudden as a few individuals walked into the room. A few old men and women flew to the top of the hall from where they began addressing the gathered cultivators.

"Everyone, I thank you all for coming to our humble sect. We will send you into the secret realm very soon now, but before that, I must ask you to listen to a few things I say and take note to follow the rules."

"The secret realm is an ancestral ground belonging to our Twin Saber sect. There will be many opportunities to be found there, and when you do, I request that you do not take all of it away. Please leave behind something for our disciples to receive as well."

"You are free to take anything that grows or naturally appears in there, but please do not destroy them. Our disciple will be watching everything inside and any destruction will be on you to pay for."

The man continued speaking about the secret realm and what it meant for his people. He went on to talk about their founder, Reverend Sixghost, and what it signified that he had created the secret realm as his tomb.

Alex looked at the old man and then at the ones beside him. He hadn\'t noticed her at first, but Elder Shang was among those people, standing further at the back.

She looked through everyone, giving a small nod when she saw him, before looking through the others.

The speech was rather short as they wanted everyone to move on to what they had come here for. The teleportation formation to the secret realm was ready and everyone was handed one teleportation talisman to return should they wish to at any time.

The secret realm was going to remain open for a whole year, so people were free to return whenever they wanted.

The sect master of the Twin Saber sect looked at all of them and said, "I pray one of you find that which our founder left behind."

And then, they all began teleporting away one by one.

Alex waited for a while before it was his turn. He finally walked into the teleportation formation and was sent away.

Alex then arrived in a white room, large and bright. Everyone was appearing around him, looking around just as he was. He was sure the secret realm was supposed to be much larger than just this room, so he looked for an exist.

He looked to the edges of the circular room and found a door. However, he could hear the commotion near that door.

"Huh? Why is this door not budging?" someone asked.

"This door isn\'t opening either!" someone else shouted from the distance.

Alex turned around and there was another closed door in another direction. He turned around to see one door that had opened, which was where the people were walking out from. He looked in the last direction, and there was another door there, one that was closed.

The circular room had 4 doors all equidistant from one another, and only one that opened up. \'Could the treasure be hidden in one of these 3 doors?\' Alex thought. That was the same thought many of the people had that still remained in the room. He walked toward one of the doors to check how it was locked.

When he arrived, he was surprised to see that the door was not locked at all. Just that it wouldn\'t move. Alex found an opening to pull on the door and even when he used his full force, the door wouldn\'t budge.

"Hey guys! Leave that alone. There is nothing there," someone shouted from the back. "Go out and see, you\'ll understand."

People began walking out and Alex got curious too, but he waited just a moment longer. He wanted to see if there was a trick to the doors. When he got another chance, he poured his Yang Qi into the door to see if it would budge. If there was a formation or a script within those doors, it would open up when he poured his Yang Qi.

Alas, it didn\'t move.

\'Is it really just for show then?\' he thought. He walked over to the other two doors and tried the same thing, only to be met with the same results on both occasions.

Either there was something very special going on with these doors, or there was nothing going on with these doors at all. Alex started to believe that it was the other one. \'Why are they so hard to open then?\' he thought and looked around at the walls. He tried to push on them and realized that they were quite solid as well. The material this room was made out of was strong enough to withstand damages from Immortals.

\'Oh! So that was a waste of time,\' he thought, laughing to himself. There were still quite a few people within the room trying to open the doors, but Alex didn\'t see the point of it anymore.

Pearl appeared in a flash next to him, which caught nobody\'s attention because everyone was already used to the people teleporting into the room randomly. Pearl looked around at the room. "This is the secret realm?" he asked. "It\'s quite small."

Alex pointed the other way. "The door is that way. This is just a room we arrive at first."

Pearl turned around. "Oh, I didn\'t see that. Are we staying or leaving?" he asked.

"I stayed to see if these doors open, but they don\'t. So it\'s time to leave and see if the treasure is out there somewhere."
