The world descends on Sky Island: God-level talents are drawn at the beginning.

The great beast lord was wrapped in purple arcs of electricity, leaving scorch marks on the metal ground with every step.

Beside him, Tu Gang's body was in a liquid metal state, capable of changing shape at any time.

After this period of seclusion, their faces radiated the glow of a breakthrough in cultivation, their eyes gleaming with a restrained yet sharp light.

Looking at the demeanor of everyone, Han Xing nodded in satisfaction and said, "It seems that everyone has made quite a bit of progress recently."

Upon hearing this, the people on the field exchanged glances, and smiles appeared on their faces.

The great beast sighed and said, "The realm of the God Realm Lord is indeed a completely different stage compared to the realm of the Chaos Lord."

"At the God Lord Realm, there are too many ways to mobilize and combine the power of origin."

"Recently, I have developed a new ultimate move in the [Ancient Thunder Beast] form."

"While its power is not as great as [Lightning Strike], it is not far off."

Han Xing nodded approvingly and looked at Tu Gang beside him.

The massive metal figure scratched his bald head and said blankly, "Well... I haven't improved as much as Brother Big Beast, and I haven't been studying combat techniques lately..."

"However... I have developed a new ability called [Metal Empowerment]."

"Metal-enhanced?"

The Korean star asked疑惑地问道, "What's the purpose?"

Tu Gang honestly replied, "My benefactor, this [Metal Empowerment], as the name suggests, can endow some metals with special abilities, greatly improving their hardness, strength, and overall performance."

"Not only that... I can also imbue your weapons with the metal from my own body."

"Whether it's my benefactor's arrow attack or Lady Yaolian's greatsword attack, they can all trigger my metal penetration effect when they hit the enemy."

"In this way, your weapons will be more powerful and their destructive force will be even more astonishing."

He paused, then added, "By the way, this kind of empowerment can only be used on some physical attacks."

"Miss Longyu's magical attacks and Miss Miaoqing's musical attacks cannot be affected."

After hearing Tu Gang's explanation, everyone on the field nodded in understanding.

At the same time, a strange look appeared in the eyes of those looking at this big guy.

After all, the two abilities that Tu Gang gained after breaking through to the Divine Realm Lord were both for protecting himself and his teammates.

This time, the new ability I've learned is to increase the attack power of my teammates.

It has to be said that Tu Gang is a perfect team support.

Although its combat power is not strong, it is more important than the Great Beast Lord who has awakened the bloodline of the Ancient Thunder Beast.

After summarizing everyone's gains and improvements in strength.

Qinghe stepped forward and pointed to the endless sky before her, saying, "Han Xing, we can already see the [Heavenly Pool Secret Realm]."

"It's about 70,000 light-years away from us!"

Upon hearing this, everyone quickly looked in the direction Qinghe was pointing.

However, apart from the endless sky and the faint light in the far distance, no trace of the so-called secret realm was found.

At that moment, a vertical line appeared in Han Xing's pupil, and a third eye gradually emerged.

The Triple Heavenly Eye began to operate at full speed.

Then, he saw a peculiar spatial rift appear in the airspace about 73,000 light-years away from the Ark!

Deep within the rift, a majestic gate looms in the void.

It was an ancient gate that was a million feet tall, constructed entirely of some kind of blue crystal, with lifelike lotus patterns carved on the door frame.

The most astonishing thing is the bright moon in the center of the lintel, which is actually an inner world compressed to the extreme, radiating terrifying fluctuations.

"This is... Heavenly Gate?" Han Xing murmured.

Others, too, had already caught a glimpse of the outline of that enormous portal.

The great beast lord beside him exclaimed in amazement, "This is truly magnificent... So this is the secret realm?"

"This is the first time I've ever been to a place like this..."

【Secret Realm】As a relatively rare place on the Lord Continent, it is basically a special area left behind by some high-level gods or even eternal beings after their death.

Over the years, the primordial energy has sculpted a place with its own unique operating rules, including a different flow of time.

Moreover, because the primordial power within these powerful individuals was extremely concentrated after their deaths.

Over time, all sorts of rare and precious treasures will form inside.

These include the most common items such as Eternal Land, Earth Stone, and Sky Stone.

Each [Secret Realm] represents a wealth of resources.

Places like these are naturally under the control of powerful figures; ordinary lords have no chance to even get close, let alone enter them.

Therefore, even the Great Beast Lords are not qualified to go to such places.

Of course, he has now successfully broken through to the God Realm Lord level, a level of strength that would make him a mainstay in the Lord Continent.

Regardless of the region, he is qualified to go to the secret realm.

Qinghe gazed at the enormous Heavenly Gate, her eyes filled with emotion and reminiscence.

She parted her lips slightly and said, "That is the entrance to the Heavenly Pool Secret Realm. Once you enter the Heavenly Gate, you will have officially entered the secret realm."

"Then we must begin searching for the second area: the entrance to the chasm, and conduct the trial there."

"After passing the trial, you will enter the [Natural Barrier]."

"Once you cross the final natural barrier, you will reach the core of the secret realm, the Heavenly Pool."

Qinghe had mentioned the three areas of the [Heavenly Pool Secret Realm] before, so everyone had a general idea of ​​what they were doing.

At this moment, Qinghe added, "However... the three major areas and the three trials are all extremely difficult."

"The journey is fraught with dangers; one wrong step could lead to utter ruin."

"In addition, the chaotic mist that is everywhere makes entering the innermost Heavenly Pool often come with enormous sacrifices..."

After hearing this, everyone's faces showed a thoughtful expression.

They were already mentally prepared for the dangers in the [Heavenly Pool Secret Realm].

No one said much, but instead gazed at the magnificent heavenly gate that stretched across the void and drew ever closer.

"Buzz..."

Time flew by, and an hour had passed.

The Milky Way Ark slowly decelerated, and was less than a hundred light-years away from the Heavenly Gate.

At this moment, the details of this ancient gate are clearly visible.

On the door frame, which is a million feet high, every lotus pattern contains complete fluctuations of laws.

The bright moon in the center of the lintel slowly rotated, emanating a terrifying primal energy that distorted and deformed even the light around it.

Most astonishing was the bluish mist seeping from the cracks in the door, carrying a corrosive aura.

Clearly, this fog is the "chaotic fog" that Qinghe mentioned.

At this moment, everyone seemed to have discovered something and looked towards the area near the Heavenly Gate.

Before that magnificent gate, dozens of distinctly different flying vehicles and floating territories were suspended.

Floating to the east is a blood-red skeletal continent, its surface covered with writhing flesh and blood.

Countless tendrils, resembling blood vessels, drooped down from the bottom of the continent, greedily absorbing the corpses of lords scattered in the void. To the west was a pitch-black ark shaped like a coffin, its hull inlaid with countless skulls.

These skulls have eerie green flames flickering in their eye sockets, and they automatically fly out to devour any new corpses that drift by.

Facing the Heavenly Gate, an ancient temple floats in mid-air, radiating endless golden light.

The mere sight of that light evokes a sense of submission and worship.

"Keng——!"

The demon lotus beside him instantly drew her greatsword, a look of vigilance appearing in her eyes.

"The Thousand Kill Alliance, Burial Ground, and Western Region Divine Palace are the three major forces in the Western Region."

Upon hearing this, Han Xing's expression shifted slightly.

I had heard Qinghe talk about the reputation of these three major powers in the Western Regions long before we were on the road.

It is said that they control all the lords in the Western Regions, and the entire area is divided up by these three major forces.

Now it seems that what he said was true!

Besides these three major powers, there are also all sorts of lords scattered around.

There was a Cyclopes driving bronze chariots, which were covered with all sorts of divine weapons.

There was a gaunt old monk sitting on a lotus throne, surrounded by 108 prayer beads.

The most eye-catching figure was a woman in purple robes standing on a meteorite, with seven purple spheres beneath her delicate pink lotus feet, and a dark purple divine sword floating behind her.

The Great Beast Lord gazed at the woman, a hint of reminiscence appearing in his eyes.

"This woman... looks so familiar..."

"Who's here?"

At this moment, Qinghe explained, "The Bauhinia God Lord was an unparalleled genius of the Western Regions in the past."

"Its status is equivalent to that of the Southern Region's Jiyuntian."

Everyone present was taken aback upon hearing this.

The meaning of the phrase "status equivalent to the highest heavens" is self-evident.

This woman, in that era, likely suppressed countless peerless geniuses of the same level!

This prodigy has already broken through to the God Lord realm, and the aura emanating from her is no less than that of a beginner God Lord!
It's unimaginable how powerful this monster is now!

At this moment, Qinghe continued in a deep voice, "Look over there, that Cyclops riding a bronze chariot."

She pointed to the void, "That is the Lord of Weapons. It is said that he has collected 108,000 divine weapons, each of which is stained with the blood of a lord. His faction is the Thousand Kill Alliance."

She moved her finger slightly, landing on the withered old monk: "Venerable Bitter Sea, who cultivated the 'Scripture of Salvation from Calamity', once converted three deities into Buddhism."

"Affiliation: Western Region Divine Palace".

Yao Lian frowned slightly: "It seems that the opening of the [Heavenly Pool Secret Realm] has attracted many monsters from the Western Regions."

Qinghe frowned slightly and remained silent.

At this moment, a question arose in Han Xing's mind.

He asked, "Didn't they say that the [Heavenly Pool Secret Realm] stipulates the strength of those who can enter, and only those below the level of God Lord can enter?"

"Why are all these god-level monsters here? How come they can enter the Heavenly Pool?"

Upon hearing this, both Qinghe and Yaolian fell into deep thought.

Clearly, even they didn't know what had happened.

Based on their previous experience and memories, the [Heavenly Pool Secret Realm] is a place that refuses entry to beings at the level of a God Realm Lord.

The Heavenly Gate alone would be enough to stop them all.

However... the gathering of so many deities is indeed a bit strange.

At this moment, Yao Lian suddenly whispered, "Sister, do you think it's possible that the level of the secret realm has evolved?"

Upon hearing this conjecture, Qinghe pondered for a moment.

Then, she nodded slightly and said, "That's possible..."

"If the secret realm has evolved, then the fact that it opened this time and attracted so many gods can be explained."

Han Xing couldn't help but interrupt, "Wait a minute, what is this 'Secret Realm Evolution' you're talking about?"

The Great Beast Lord, the Spirit Radiance Lord, and others also cast curious glances their way.

Clearly... even they were hearing about 'Secret Realm Evolution' for the first time.

Qinghe seemed to know the doubts of the crowd.

She took a deep breath and slowly explained, "The so-called evolution of a secret realm refers to the qualitative change that occurs when certain ancient secret realms absorb enough primordial power."

"Just like a lord breaking through a realm, the rules of the secret realm will also be upgraded."

"The evolved secret realm can not only accommodate higher-level powerhouses, but the treasures nurtured within will also undergo a transformation."

Yao Lian picked up where she left off, her blood-red katana tracing a path through the void: "For example, a vein that originally could only produce Earth God Stones might evolve to give birth to Chaos God Stones, and ordinary Eternal Soil might have a chance to yield Primordial Breath Soil..."

After a pause, Yao Lian continued to explain, "The Chaos Divine Stone and the Primordial Breath Soil are both higher-level materials, belonging to the level of a God Realm Lord."

"They are also of great use to Eternal Lords, although the probability of their production is extremely low, even to an appalling degree."

"The most precious thing is," the demon lotus suddenly lowered its voice, "that there is an extremely small probability that an [Eternal Sacred Relic] will be born!"

Everyone was shocked when they heard the words!
Although they did not know what the so-called "Eternal Relic" was.

But the mere fact that it has the word 'eternal' in front of it is enough to prove its extraordinary nature and power!

Qinghe slowly said, "So... these gods are basically all after the treasures and the [Eternal Sacred Relic] inside."

"but……"

She bit her lower lip lightly, a look of worry appearing in her eyes: "This makes it even more difficult for us to retrieve the lotus heart from the depths of Heavenly Pool..."

Even the usually fearless demon lotus beside him seemed somewhat dejected at this moment.

After all, although she considered herself to be exceptionally talented and powerful.

But she dared not say that she could win back Lianxin from among so many gods whose talent was no less than hers and whose strength was even greater.

However, seeing the two women looking dejected, Han Xing chuckled softly.

"Why are you looking so dejected? It's just that there are a few more gods."

"Does the sight of these deities deter you from entering the secret realm?"

Upon hearing this, both women looked up at the same time.

"I……"

They hesitated, but ultimately didn't say anything.

However, Han Xing looked at the two women and said firmly, "Since the level of the secret realm has been upgraded, it means that we can all enter and unleash our full potential in a short time."

"At that time, I don't care about any god or the three major powers of the Western Regions. It would be best if they didn't stop me."

"If you dare to stop me..."

A fighting spirit flashed in Han Xing's eyes: "Then let's wipe them all out!"
