Chapter 3058 Thunderous Secret Realm, You Must Go If You Have the Chance!
"All!"

Qi Tian explained, "The eighteen of us settled down in the Great Wilderness and propagated the human race. In order to provide a better environment for our descendants to grow up in, we also fought desperately to earn greater merits."

"To this day, of the eighteen people, six are dead, three are crippled, and nine are still alive and kicking. It is through the efforts of generation after generation that the human race has finally achieved its status in the Great Wilderness Palace. For the entire human race in the Great Wilderness Palace, the Great Wilderness Palace is their homeland."

"The Immortal Realm is merely the homeland of the remaining twelve of us. Moreover, apart from the three who were crippled, the remaining nine all hold important positions in the Great Wilderness Palace. Mei Mingzhi, in particular, is a core figure in the Great Wilderness Palace. Given that things have come to this, how could we just leave?"

"If the Immortal Realm attacks and controls the Immortal-Demon Passage, everyone will definitely go back to the Immortal Realm for a visit. But in the end, they will definitely come back here. Now that the Immortal-Demon Passage is still in the hands of the Demon Clan, if we go there and never return, I'm afraid no one will leave."

"We have no reason to leave the Demon Realm and return to the Immortal Realm. Our original mission has become utterly worthless..."

Qi Tian sighed, his short words conveying the bittersweet story of a race's efforts over tens of thousands of years.

Lin Chen gently comforted him, "There will be a day when you can travel freely. It shouldn't be too long."

Qi Tian chuckled and asked, "Are you married? Do you have children?"

Lin Chen replied, "I have a Daoist partner, but no children."

Qi Tian laughed and said, "If your Daoist partner, your child, your child's child, and your descendants were all in the Demon Realm, you would also choose to stay."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "That's right, home is wherever family is."

Lin Chen understood what Qi Tian was saying. Parents are family, wife is family, children are family. You are one family with your parents and one family with your wife and children. But people will definitely be with their wife and children, not with their parents.

This is similar to how children will travel long distances to visit their parents during holidays, but after the holidays, they will return to their own families and live their own lives.

Lin Chen thought for a moment and asked, "You said you crippled three..."

Qi Tian pointed to himself: "I'm one of them. Otherwise, why would I be leisurely guarding the gate here? My cultivation is half-ruined, and my future is hopeless. Now that I don't need to cultivate anymore, I have to find something to do to pass the time. Otherwise, how am I supposed to get through the days?"

Lin Chen suddenly realized why Qi Tian, ​​as one of the eighteen patriarchs with a prestigious position, had come here to guard the gate; perhaps he just wanted to find some sense of being alive.

"The Lü Shuyi you're looking for isn't useless, but after she came to the Demon Realm, she dated several men, and none of them survived. This caused Lü Shuyi to become extreme and violent. If you visit her, you'd better watch your words." Lin Chen was speechless for a moment. Was Lü Shuyi perhaps destined to bring misfortune to her husbands?
She had so many Daoist partners before and after, but they all died, while she is still alive and well.

"Thank you for your guidance, senior."

Qi Tian tossed over a jade pendant: "This is a jade pendant I've worn for many years. Take it; consider it a token. For my sake, she shouldn't make things difficult for you."

Lin Chen was overjoyed and thanked him again.

Qi Tian thought for a moment: "What's your strength?"

"Medium grade".

Qi Tian laughed and said, "You're strong enough to kill so many Demon Lords at the mid-level. If you improve your realm further, you'll be even stronger. There's a secret realm in the Great Wilderness Palace called Thunderclap. If you have the chance, you can enter it and see if you can improve yourself."

Lin Chen asked in surprise, "Can this Thunderous Secret Realm improve one's strength?"

Qi Tian nodded: "The Thunderous Secret Realm can be entered by each person once. After entering, one may obtain various opportunities, such as cultivation techniques, strength enhancement, or breakthroughs. In short, it depends on the person and their fate."

"This Thunderous Secret Realm is a sacred site of the Great Wilderness Palace. It is said that it was personally created by the Great Wilderness Saint to leave an opportunity for the disciples of the Great Wilderness. Anyone of any strength can enter this secret realm, but not just anyone can enter. There will be a certain number of places available every once in a while. The Palace Master usually uses these places as rewards for those who have made contributions."

Lin Chen smiled and asked, "Senior, have you been inside?"

"I've been inside."

Qi Tian replied, "At that time, I was already a peak Great Luo. After entering, I gained some benefits and my strength improved, becoming a half-step Quasi-Saint. Unfortunately, my talent was limited, and I couldn't take that final step."

"If it were someone with the qualifications, they might have rushed through and become a quasi-saint in one go."

"All eighteen of us have been through it once. There are two more Quasi-Saints and three Half-Step Quasi-Saints. Mei Mingzhi, who was originally a Quasi-Saint, has become even stronger. It's basically impossible for any Quasi-Saint to be his match anymore..."
