With the Thunderfire Beast King leading the team and the five high-level beast kings as support, they were working with the Golden Dragon Palace Lord to rebuild the Wandering Dragon Realm. Although the process was a little slow, they still managed to preserve the core strength of the Wandering Dragon Realm.
As for those weaker cultivators, they perished under a single gaze from that Dao Realm expert, and Fang Chen was helpless against them.
The Three Thousand Realms of the Great Path was a world where the strong preyed on the weak. The gap between the Supreme Realm and the Dao Realm was too great. Even if Fang Chen wanted to protect them, he was powerless to reverse the situation. Even he was lucky enough to escape.
Now …
The Wandering Dragon Realm was in ruins, but before Fang Chen left, he had fully activated the array formation. The remaining Heavenly Dao power enveloped the Wandering Dragon Realm, preventing anyone from entering or leaving. With the Thunderfire Beast King presiding over it, the Wandering Dragon Realm wouldn't be in any danger unless it was a Dao Realm expert.
However, Dao Realm experts were high and mighty. Under normal circumstances, they wouldn't forcefully destroy a small realm.
The Dao Realm expert glanced at the dilapidated Wandering Dragon Realm. Although he was furious, he still turned and left.
After being kicked out of the cave abode, he couldn't even pinpoint its location. This meant that his treasure-hunting trip was completely over.
"Hmph, I will definitely find the truth. How dare you take my things? You will die miserably." The Dao Realm expert sneered. Then, he entered the Dark Net and began to gather information.
…
World Gap, Void Cave Abode.
He originally thought that he would have to fight to the death before he could pass. Who knew that he would be directly let in by the gatekeeper after using his Heart Force?
According to the gatekeeper, the owner of this cave abode had once said that cultivators of the Mind lineage could directly pass through this passage.
After walking for about four to five days in the long passage, he finally reached the end. After coming out of the passage, Fang Chen was shocked to discover that his cultivation level had increased greatly. His realm was infinitely close to the Peak Supreme Realm.
He was a little stunned. Could this passage also be a cultivation holy land?
Walking in the passage was also considered cultivation?
"Impressive."
After a long while, Fang Chen couldn't help but curl his lips. If such a cultivation holy land could be placed in the Chaos Realm, it would definitely allow the Chaos Realm to produce many experts.
Unfortunately, it was very difficult for him to do so with his current strength.
Whoosh!
He took a deep breath, adjusted his body condition, and stepped out of the passage.
What entered his eyes were countless dazzling lights. He used his hand to shield his eyes from the dazzling lights and gradually calmed down. To his surprise, he found that he had arrived at a peach blossom forest. He couldn't see the end of it. All he could see were densely packed peach trees. Each peach tree seemed to be a world of its own and didn't interfere with each other.
But upon closer inspection, these peach trees seemed to be connected to each other, forming a world of their own.
"What test is this?"
If the first test was to defeat the gatekeeper, then what would the second test be?
Weng!
Just as he was thinking, an identical gatekeeper suddenly appeared in the peach blossom forest.
"Hmm?"
Fang Chen was a little stunned. Could it be that all the gatekeepers in the cave were the same person?
"We meet again."
The gatekeeper smiled at Fang Chen. "There was another Dao Realm warrior who entered the passage with you to participate in the test. But because you passed the test in advance, he was kicked out of the cave."
Hearing that, Fang Chen was stunned. He followed the Dao Realm warrior in and didn't expect that in the end, the Dao Realm warrior was kicked out and he was left behind.
"You went for wool and came home shorn."
This cave treasure didn't belong to him in the first place. He violated the rules of the Dark Net and secretly left a mark on the map. If the Hydra Organization knew about this, he would definitely be punished.
Now that he had been kicked out, he could focus on clearing the trial with peace of mind.
However, Fang Chen was still a little worried. He was afraid that the Dao Realm warrior would destroy the Wandering Dragon World and the Ethereal World in anger.
"Forget it, it's useless to think about this. Only when I'm strong enough can I protect the people and things I want to protect," Fang Chen whispered.
Then, he looked up at the gatekeeper.
The latter seemed to understand the doubts in his heart and explained, "I was personally created by my master. I'm very special. All the gatekeepers you met in the cave were illusions of me. Moreover, I will determine my own strength based on the true strength of the challenger."
In other words, when facing Fang Chen, the gatekeeper's realm was only at the Advanced Supreme Realm.
However, even so, Fang Chen couldn't defeat him.
"Lord Gatekeeper, may I ask what the test of this level is?"
Since he was already here, he might as well take it easy and see if he could pass. Even a salted fish had to have dreams. What if he succeeded?
Moreover, he passed the test directly because of his identity as a Soul Cultivator. He wondered if this identity would work in this level.
"You're a Soul Cultivator. Logically speaking, you should be able to enter the last level directly. However, you're too weak and haven't reached the Dao Realm. Therefore, you must rely on your own strength to pass the Peach Blossom Forest."
The gatekeeper introduced that the Peach Blossom Forest was a formation made up of 36,500 peach blossom trees. Each peach blossom tree was unique, and there was a special connection between these peach blossom trees. In the end, they formed this incomparably wondrous formation.
To break the formation, one must comprehend all the mysteries of the 36,500 peach trees.
There was a profound mystery hidden in every single one of the peach trees.
In other words, comprehending all 36,500 mysteries would allow one to pass the test.
"In this level, cultivation level doesn't matter. It's a test of comprehension," the gatekeeper said.
"Has anyone succeeded before?" Fang Chen was speechless.
36,500 mysteries. He didn't know how long it would take to comprehend them. Moreover, some mysteries might not even be comprehended.
"Millions of years ago, there was a genius who comprehended 9,999 mysteries in one go. However, he came to a halt and failed."
The gatekeeper sank into his memories, as though he was very fond of that genius. "However, the mystic mysteries he figured out were of great help to him. Although he didn't succeed, he managed to step into the Heavenly Dao realm in just ten million years after he left. He was famous in the three thousand realms of the Great Dao, an existence that left people trembling."
Oh?
Fang Chen was alarmed. To comprehend 9,999 mysteries in one go? Wasn't that too monstrous?
However, he changed his mindset. Even if he failed, as long as he comprehended more mysteries, it would be of great help to his cultivation. Perhaps he could become the next Heavenly Dao realm expert?
Even if he failed, it wouldn't be a huge loss to him. Furthermore, he could temper his Heart Force in the process. If he could raise his Heart Force to the third level, his strength would definitely soar. When that happened, he might be able to fully use the special Heart Force in Heaven Splitting Axe.
With this in mind, he came to the nearest peach tree and sat down cross-legged to begin his meditation.
The gatekeeper nodded in satisfaction. He was neither arrogant nor rash. He had a stable mindset. It was indeed commendable.
"I hope you have good results."
