Perfect: I am Shi An from Shicun, and I am Huang’s brother!

Chapter 229 Heavenly River Secret Realm
"The Stone of Destiny..."

Similarly, after listening to Lin Feng's words, Shi An's heart stirred, and he remembered something—the Destiny Stone!

According to the original work, this so-called Destiny Stone is not actually a natural mineral, but a crystallization of laws that contains the will of Heaven and is formed by the condensation of the rules of Heaven and Earth.

The six celestial beings from the ancient times achieved a leap in their life level by merging with the Destiny Stone, thus creating the myth of the "Six Great Celestial Beings" and elevating the Celestial race to the ranks of the ten royal clans.

The main function of the Destiny Stone is to help the Celestial Race evolve their bloodline, comprehensively improve their aptitude, and even break through the limits of the race, transforming ordinary people into unparalleled geniuses.

Furthermore, the life energy contained within can be used to quickly repair injuries. It can be said that having the Destiny Stone is equivalent to having an extra life.

As for the last and most important one, it is the blessing of destiny!

Indeed, once one fully integrates with the Destiny Stone, it is equivalent to being blessed by the Heavenly Dao and becoming a child of the Heavenly Dao, also known as the Child of Destiny.

From this point on, the path of spiritual practice will be unobstructed.

However, in Shi An's opinion, this so-called Destiny Stone is not actually that good.

As the saying goes, "Success and failure both depend on Xiao He," the Celestial Race rose to prominence because of the Destiny Stone, but ultimately declined because of it as well.

After all, the so-called blessing of destiny, although seemingly glorious, is actually a constraint of the Heavenly Dao, making it difficult to truly transcend the world and pursue the supreme Dao.

Just as Shi An was deep in thought, on the other side, Zhan Tianlei, who had returned to the Tianhe Chamber of Commerce, had just stepped into his room when he saw his good daughter anxiously approaching him and asking urgently, "Father, how did it go? Did you teach that brat from who-knows-where a lesson?"

"No."

Seeing Zhan Ningyun's anxious look, Zhan Tianlei shook his head slightly, then sat down in a chair and slowly said, "When I went there, that kid had already arrived at Juxian Pavilion."

"Later, when I arrived at Juxian Pavilion, intending to teach him a lesson, I was stopped by Lin Feng, who even fought with me over it."

As he spoke, Zhan Tianlei picked up the tea on the table and took a sip: "In short, it's impossible to cause trouble for that kid in the city."

"How could this be?"

Upon hearing this, Zhan Ningyun's eyes widened, her face filled with disbelief and anger: "What right does Lin Feng have to interfere in the affairs of my Zhan clan?"

After saying that, Zhan Ningyun looked at Zhan Tianlei again and said, "Father, are we just going to let this go? That brat humiliated Wutian and caused the Zhan family to lose face in Tianhe City!"

Seeing Zhan Ningyun's indignant expression, Zhan Tianlei frowned and then shouted, "That's enough!"

"The reason for today's events is ultimately because you have spoiled your children too much in the past. If it weren't for that, how could things have developed to this point?"

"Father······"

Faced with Zhan Tianlei's sudden rebuke, Zhan Ningyun was taken aback at first, but then her expression immediately turned aggrieved: "How can you blame me... It's because you said that in Tianhe City, as long as you are here, no matter what trouble you have, it can be resolved."

"you·······"

Zhan Ningyun's words immediately enraged Zhan Tianlei, causing his temples to throb.

But in the end, he restrained himself and sighed softly, "How could I not want to avenge my grandson? It's just that with Lin Feng watching over things in the city, and Mo He of the Heavenly Human Clan around, there's really little I can do." "Mo He..."

Upon hearing that her father was worried about Mohe, Zhan Ningyun subconsciously bit her lower lip, then her eyes flickered, and after thinking for a moment, she said, "In that case, let's settle accounts with that kid when he leaves Tianhe City."

"Perfect timing. In a few days, the Milky Way will open. That kid will surely not miss it."

"Alright."

After listening to Zhan Ningyun's words, Zhan Tianlei also remembered a major event that had happened in the Tianhe Plain recently: the opening of the Tianhe River!
The reason why Tianhe Plain is called Tianhe Plain is not only because of its vast plain landscape, but also because of a secret realm deep within the plain – Tianhe Secret Realm!
Legend has it that the Heavenly River Secret Realm was actually the Daoist temple of an immortal during the ancient times, containing countless rare and precious materials, ancient traditions, and mysterious runes.

Furthermore, since ancient times, the Heavenly River Secret Realm has opened once every thousand years. Although the location of each opening is different and the time is only one year, countless talented cultivators still flock to it during this period, trying to obtain opportunities and break through their own bottlenecks in this mysterious realm.

This time, the Milky Way opens 999 years after the last one, and in less than ten days, it will be another millennium.

Therefore, a tense yet exciting atmosphere permeated the entire Tianhe Plain during this period, which is also why Zhao Wutian, a playboy, would venture deep into the Tianhe Plain.

Meanwhile, in the guest room of Juxian Pavilion, which had been rebuilt by Lin Feng, Shi An was discussing matters concerning the Tianhe Secret Realm with Yun Xi.

Originally, Shi An's plan was to learn some information from Lin Feng before heading to the Celestial Race or the Celestial Academy.

But when he mentioned wanting to enter the Heavenly Immortal Academy, Lin Feng told him that there was no rush, and then told him that a secret realm would soon open in the Heavenly River Plain.

It was clear that he implied he hoped the couple, or himself, could attend.

"The Heavenly River Secret Realm..."

Shi An lightly tapped the table with his fingertips, his gaze piercing through the window lattice to the distant sea of ​​clouds.

Yunxi brewed tea with her delicate hands, and her thoughtful face was reflected in the rising steam.

Before long, Yunxi gently pushed the brewed tea in front of Shi An. Amidst the fragrant aroma of the tea, she slowly said, "According to Senior Lin Feng, this so-called Heavenly River Secret Realm has been opened once every thousand years since ancient times, but no one knows what the greatest opportunity within it is. This is very strange."

"That's strange..."

Hearing Yunxi's question, Shi An pondered for a moment, then took out a stone tablet about a foot long and said thoughtfully, "Perhaps it's not surprising."

As he spoke, Shi An told Yun Xi about the origin of the stone tablet, which was also about the Purple Spirit True Immortal.

After listening to Shi An's explanation, Yun Xi's expression changed slightly, becoming much more serious: "So you mean that the immortals in the Heavenly River Secret Realm are also choosing suitable targets for possession?"

"It's not impossible."

Upon hearing this, Shi An nodded solemnly, gently stroking the stone tablet with his fingers: "Just like this Purple Spirit Immortal, although he has long since died and his soul has dissipated, his lingering obsession remains, and he has been trying to be reborn by borrowing another's body."

"Now that the Heavenly River Secret Realm is also an ancient immortal's dojo, it's possible that similar beings are lurking within, waiting for their chance."
