Chapter 489 Apocalypse Secret Realm (4K)_2
Last month, he was utterly convinced that the conclusions he drew about certain concepts and powers were correct.
Now, however, as his realm has advanced and his understanding of Conceptual Power has deepened, he realizes that the conclusions he summarized last month are no longer so accurate.
"Thus, the most suitable way to improve Conceptual Power is still to rely on self-enlightenment aided by cultivation treasure lands."
Mu Yuan opened the exchange platform of the Tai Xuan Covenant.
He began to filter through the options.
'Sunset Precinct: At the moment of twilight, the Mysterious Moment, cultivators can glimpse a different scene and gain insight.'
'Ascension Stairs: Climbing the stairs will temper the mind, and this place can effectively enhance psychic power.'
'Dragonfall Waterfall:...'
'Destiny's Gate:...'
'Sun Profound Platform:...'
Although these cultivation treasure lands were not his primary target, among them were places suitable for the Tian Yuan Division Generals to temper themselves.
For example, the Ascension Stairs were suitable for Seventeen's psychic cultivation.
Others could also forge their will there.
Of course, there are many places suitable for will cultivation, and it's not necessary to choose this particular one.
Like Dragonfall Waterfall, which could refine bloodlines and polish the body, was quite suitable for Uta.
Mu Yuan pondered.
Before long, his gaze settled on a particular cultivation project.
'Apocalypse Secret Realm'
'Explanation ①: A large-scale Heaven and Earth Secret Realm, born naturally by nature, managed and guarded by the spirits of heaven and earth, possessing the Mysterious Power that bestows revelations.'
'Explanation ②: The Apocalypse Secret Realm has common areas and a core area.'

'The core area possesses thirty-six Apocalypse Pillars, each with different functions, profound and unpredictable.'
'Explanation ③: Within the territory of the Taixuan Alliance, there are two gates that lead to the Apocalypse Secret Realm, located at...'

'Exchange price:...'
The core of the Apocalypse Secret Realm also provides cultivators with revelations, putting them into an immersive state of comprehension and awakening advanced skills or even Epic Skills based on their own bloodline.
But Mu Yuan was very aware that these revelations themselves were the ultimate truths of the world.
This Secret Realm must help everyone improve their Power of Concept, and it might even help Dead Bone, Duo Lai, and the others rapidly construct new combat methods while in a state of Enlightenment.
This is it.
Mu Yuan decided to first take Dead Bone, Duo Lai, and Isloa to test the waters.
The Shattered Isles Warzone still needs powerful figures to guard it.
The rest can take turns later.
He must first see if this Apocalypse Secret Realm is worth the cost.
Mu Yuan shared his thoughts with the group.
Duo Lai always had a 200% interest in going out.
Isloa immediately understood his arrangement, "Got it. You want me to open a portal again, right? Okay, okay, but I have to decide which stars to collect back first."
Dead Bone originally had no interest in traveling far away for cultivation.
It preferred to stay in its Wraith Sacred Mountain and practice ascetically.
Yet, the emergence of the Death Knight made it realize that it had much to improve upon.
It wasn't afraid of shortcomings.
As long as it could identify the problem, it was confident in solving it.
It's just that sometimes, it was unaware of the problem.
It had to go out and gather more information.
"However..." Dead Bone said, "That Death Knight might still be watching me. I can't leave directly; I'm not confident I can deceive such a powerful being."
But that wasn't a problem.
...
A few days later.
Shattered Isles, Black Mountain.
With the Undead and Sophia's cover, Sophia in a black robe arrived within Black Mountain.
Here, the black mist swirled around, and the shadow of the Wraith Sacred Mountain provided protection, rendering even Law Realm strong beings unable to cast their gaze here.
"I'll just open the Star Gate right away."
Isloa said.
The Star Gate opened effortlessly within Black Mountain.
Dead Bone left an avatar outside and crossed the Star Gate itself, vanishing into the Black Mountain in the blink of an eye.
Beyond Black Mountain, a thousand miles away.
The Death Knight sensed from afar the changes in the death network.
"The young king still remains on that unremarkable little hill."
"What exactly does he want to do?"
"For the young form of a Wáng Líng Zhī Wáng to stay in such a remote place, it's somewhat a waste of his talents."
He was unclear, so he could only wait.
Wait for an opportunity that could change the young king's mind.
...
Thud, thud, thud.
The passage was long, like a Divine Dragon lying across the land. People tread on this divine body to ascend to the nine heavens.
Ahead, swirling mists enveloped the view, with the scenery within slowly coming into sight.
Dozens, hundreds of majestic and peculiar mountains stood tall, piercing into the clouds. Each mountain was incredibly steep, like uneven and irregular pillars. They were the Pillars of Heaven, supporting the firmament.
"Impressive, isn't it? I was also stunned the first time I came here. These seemingly Pillars of Heaven are the Apocalypse Secret Realm's Revelation Pillars, totaling one thousand and eight," said a bearded burly man.
Mu Yuan didn't know this person, and the latter probably didn't know him either. However, in this place, the fact that both were of the Taixuan people was enough to make them somewhat closer to each other.
After all...
Mu Yuan entered from the channel entrance of the Taixuan Realm.
Around him, this wasn't the only entrance.
Just within his view, there were at least dozens.
Some passages were visibly crowded with figures moving through the mist, while others were eerily quiet.
Further ahead, an Enchantment woven from countless light patterns spread upwards and sidewards, blocking the path.
In front of the Enchantment, Armored Warriors with white armor and swords, topped with a pure white halo, stood guard.
They stood there in silence, like sculptures.
In front of the path guarded by the white Armored Warriors, cultivators holding tokens passed through, officially entering the Secret Realm.
The bearded burly man walked forward.
Suddenly,
a grey shadow swept by his side, racing towards the only gap below the Enchantment with the speed of lightning.
Boom—
The grey shadow hit an invisible barrier.
An Armored Warrior standing by pointed his sword from a distance, and the grey-clothed figure froze in place.
The next moment, he disappeared.
"He's been shifted out of the Secret Realm," said the bearded man, shaking his head. "Probably a young man from some small place, trying to find a loophole. But little does he know this is the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm, with no loopholes to exploit. It's quite rare to see such a thing, interesting to observe, though."
Mu Yuan was also broadening his horizons.
The bearded man pulled out his token, about to pass through the Barrier Gate.
Suddenly, another grey shadow swept in from behind.
It was another strong presence.
A black line suddenly shot out from his hand, streaking through the air with a whoosh and snatching the token the bearded man had just taken out.
The grey-robed figure grabbed the token, ready to step through the Barrier Gate.
'It's a legend!' Mu Yuan mused to himself.
He certainly noticed the grey shadow, yet did not intervene.
Because he realized that the bearded man had long been aware of it and allowed the figure to take the token from his hand without interference.
As expected,
the grey-robed man who had just snatched the token was frozen in place the next moment.
"Second offence against the rules, first-level punishment administered, and hereby limited from entering this Secret Realm and other related Heaven and Earth Secret Realms for the next year," announced a voice.
A white light descended.
This light, however, was no longer sacred and warm but filled with the Coercion of judgment.
The grey-robed legend's body, frozen mid-air, twitched continuously.
The next moment, he was shifted out of the Secret Realm.
At the same time,
behind them, strands of light fell upon three other figures.

A man, who seemed to be a Lord, shouted; his voice had barely faded when all three disappeared within the Secret Realm.
The token, enveloped in white light, returned to the bearded man's hand.
"No struggles are allowed within the Apocalypse Secret Realm," Mu Yuan pondered, "but the rules don't seem comprehensive; is it just maintained by the spirit of heaven and earth?"
The bearded man said, "Indeed, no struggles are allowed here, but if one does not escalate to the level of conflict, but merely causes annoyance or interference, it's truly possible to a certain extent to circumvent the rules here."
