The immortal energy was so dense it was almost tangible.
As far as the eye could see was a vast spring, and at its entrance, a waterfall. This was no ordinary waterfall, but one condensed from immortal energy. At the source of the waterfall was a top-grade immortal crystal vein.
"Inscribing Token!"
"Could it be that the river of immortal energy is inscribed beneath this waterfall?"
With this thought, Ye Xuan soon discovered the imprint of an Inscribing Token on the edge of the waterfall. He then tossed his token, and it landed precisely on the imprint.
In the next moment, the restrictions around the immortal energy waterfall dissipated, replaced by the roar of the magnificent cascade.
"Amazing!"
"Master, I'm going in."
The God Slaying Thunder Spear flickered and appeared within the waterfall, immediately beginning to absorb the immensely surging river of immortal energy.
Ye Xuan smirked at the sight and then followed, diving beneath the immortal energy waterfall.
Man and spear were thus submerged by the immortal energy waterfall. It was clear that this waterfall, containing countless years of accumulated immortal energy, was more than enough for them.
Subsequently, two vortexes appeared beneath the immortal energy waterfall. Ye Xuan, who had recently broken through to the second-tier Immortal realm, began to grow stronger.
Half a day later, he reached the peak of the second-tier Immortal realm!
One day later, he reached the absolute peak of the second-tier Immortal realm!
Three days later, he broke through to the third-tier Immortal realm!
Five days later, he reached the absolute peak of the third-tier Immortal realm!
Seven days later, a deafening roar erupted from beneath the immortal energy waterfall. The entire waterfall was abruptly cut off. At this moment, Ye Xuan's realm experienced another breakthrough, entering the fourth-tier Immortal realm.
"This is... Master has actually entered the fourth-tier Immortal realm!?"
The God Slaying Thunder Spear sensed the change beside it and was shocked. "Good heavens, this power!?"
The God Slaying Thunder Spear had also gained immense benefits. Its aura alone now rivaled that of a second-tier Immortal, and its individual combat power could crush third-tier Immortals. Of course, it was no match for its new master, Ye Xuan, who could likely kill a fifth-tier Immortal in a single blow and easily defeat a sixth-tier Immortal.
"It's a shame... this immortal energy waterfall cannot be stored in a spatial ring, otherwise~~"
Ye Xuan gazed at the magnificent immortal energy waterfall and muttered.
God Slaying Thunder Spear: "..."
To actually want to collect the immortal energy waterfall, Master truly dared to dream. He was practically aiming for the lifeblood of the Myriad Swords Sacred Land.
"It's time to leave."
Ye Xuan beckoned with his right hand, grasping the God Slaying Thunder Spear. He glanced at the immortal energy waterfall one last time before turning to leave the Immortal Secret Realm.
He then reappeared outside the Immortal Secret Realm. The Ancestors of the Myriad Swords Sacred Land and Mo Xuanyou, who had sensed the exceptionally powerful fluctuations from within the secret realm, were already waiting outside.
Among these Ancestors of the Myriad Swords Sacred Land was Lin Tianyue.
"Seven days of cultivation in the Immortal Secret Realm, I wonder how far that Ye Xuan has progressed."
Lin Tianyue mused, recalling the scene in the main hall seven days prior. "To be able to defeat seventy-two elders with a flip of his hand, it's obvious that this Ye Xuan has already entered the Immortal realm, and not just any ordinary Immortal realm."
"Truly unexpected... Hmm!?"
As Lin Tianyue murmured, he sensed Ye Xuan's aura. To his surprise, he felt an immense pressure emanating from Ye Xuan.
How could this be!?
Could it be that Ye Xuan's strength had already surpassed his own!!
With this thought, Lin Tianyue's eyelids twitched uncontrollably. He had always known that Ye Xuan's talent was extraordinarily monstrous, even considerably greater than Qin Wudao's. However, he had never imagined that he had underestimated Ye Xuan's potential.
"This is... how powerful has Master become now!"
Yu Hongyu pursed her lips. Judging by the aura emanating from her Master, he was far more powerful than most of the Demon Sect's ancestors.
"Heh heh, as expected of my Master, Qin Wudao. Tsk tsk~~~"
Qin Wudao looked at his Master, his eyes filled with excitement and fervor. He knew he had made the right choice.
"Alliance Leader!"
"It seems the trip to the Immortal Secret Realm was highly beneficial. I wonder... if you would allow me to spar with you."
Lin Tianyue said this, not forgetting that he was already a guardian of the Xuan Alliance. However, the others around him looked at him with suspicion.
What was this talk of an Alliance Leader?
"Brother Ji, what's going on with Ancestor Tianyue??"
Qin Zhangu asked his brother-in-law, whom he hadn't seen in thousands of years. It was clear that something had happened between Ancestor Tianyue and Ye Xuan that he was unaware of.
"Cough cough... Zhangu, you might not know."
Ji Wutian said somewhat unnaturally, as the person before him far surpassed him in both status and strength. "Ancestor Tianyue has now joined the Xuan Alliance. This means that Ancestor Tianyue is not only an ancestor of your Sacred Land but also a guardian of the Xuan Alliance, a force created by Ye Xuan."
"What!"
Upon hearing Ji Wutian's words, Qin Zhangu and the surrounding Ancestors of the Myriad Swords Sacred Land were stunned. What on earth was going on?
Ancestor Tianyue had... joined the Xuan Alliance!
Qin Wudao's pupils widened at this. "Holy cow!"
"Ancestor Tianyue, is... is that true?"
"Ancestor Tianyue has become Master's subordinate. This, cough cough!"
The more Qin Wudao thought about it, the more he marveled. Master was simply too incredible. After all, it would be hard to find even a few ancestors in the entire Myriad Swords Sacred Land who could match him.
"Heh heh, alright."
Ye Xuan readily agreed, as he wanted to establish his prestige within the Myriad Swords Sacred Land. After all, the Xuan Alliance's influence would inevitably extend throughout the Haotian Immortal Kingdom in the future.
"Holy cow~"
"Master is going to fight Ancestor Tianyue!?"
Qin Wudao pursed his lips, watching his still calm and collected Master. His heart was in his throat. Yu Hongyu also narrowed her eyes.
Lin Tianyue of the Myriad Swords Sacred Land!
He was a legendary existence. Even his father had held him in extremely high regard. Once, Yu Hongyu had heard her father mention that even he estimated he couldn't last a hundred moves against Lin Tianyue.
Precisely because of this!
Now, learning that the peerless prodigy ancestor her father spoke of was about to clash with her Master, how could she not be concerned!
"Alliance Leader, then I won't hold back."
Lin Tianyue's body surged with terrifying sword intent, which had already formed a sword domain. With the appearance of the sword domain, an icy chill emanated, causing one's hair to stand on end.
"Asura Sword Domain!"
The people of the Myriad Swords Sacred Land were stunned by Lin Tianyue's move. "Seriously? Ancestor Tianyue is using his trump card, the Asura Sword Domain, right from the start? This... is this too serious?"
However, they soon realized they were worrying unnecessarily. Before this thought could fully form, another domain, no less powerful than Lin Tianyue's, instantly spread out from Ye Xuan, enveloping the entire area. This was precisely the "Invincible Spear Domain"!
