Traveling Between Two Worlds: From Bread for Maids to Fantasy Overlord

Chapter 382: Secrets of the Spirit Clan, Traces of the Dragon Clan

On the east side of the dual-realm passage, Qin Yuling was leading the dual-realm legions to check for traps when Huang Yiming quietly descended, his body surrounded by spiritual energy, carefully sensing the energy fluctuations around him. "Yiming, you've arrived." Qin Yuling stepped forward, her tone solemn. "We've found three traps, all laid by evil cultivators from the Hongmeng Realm. They're extremely powerful—once triggered, they will not only tear space apart but also release a large amount of evil energy to pollute the dual-realm origin."

Huang Yiming nodded, his fingertips gathering spiritual energy as he gently touched a trap. A strange, malevolent aura rushed out, remarkably similar to the demonic mark on the Heavenly Evolution Sect's ancestor (Volume 8). "These traps share the same origin as the evil aura of the Black Demon Realm. It seems the collusion between the evil cultivators of the Primordial Chaos Realm and the Black Demon Realm is far deeper than we imagined." His tone was grave. Back then, the Heavenly Evolution Sect's ancestor colluded with the demons in an attempt to overthrow the Azure Nether Realm. Now, the evil cultivators of the Primordial Chaos Realm have joined forces with the Black Demon Realm, escalating the crisis between the two realms once again.

Just then, Huang Yiming's communication jade talisman suddenly lit up. It was a message from Ling tide, her tone urgent: "Yiming, something bad has happened! An anomaly has occurred at the Spirit Clan's Holy Land. The spiritual energy is chaotic, and a large amount of evil energy is invading. I sense... someone is spying on the secrets deep within the Holy Land!"

Huang Yiming's heart tightened, and he immediately instructed Qin Yuling, "Yuling, you're in charge of dealing with the traps here. Make sure to dismantle them as soon as possible and strengthen the defenses. I'm going to the Spirit Clan's Holy Land." Qin Yuling nodded and replied, "Don't worry, I will definitely guard the dual-realm passage and will not allow any evil cultivators to take advantage of it." Before she finished speaking, Huang Yiming's figure flashed, transforming into a streak of light, and he sped towards the Spirit Clan's Holy Land.

The sacred land of the Spirit Clan was shrouded in mist, its once abundant spiritual energy now chaotic and disordered, a faint malevolent aura permeating the air. Spiritual plants withered, and spiritual springs became murky. Ling Xi stood before the sacred land's stone tablet, her white robes stained with dust, her face filled with anxiety. Her Spirit Clan bloodline was restless, as if responding to something. "Yi Ming!" Upon seeing Huang Yi Ming arrive, Ling Xi immediately stepped forward, her eyes slightly red. "The ancient characters of the sacred land have suddenly become clear, but I can't understand them. Moreover, I sense evil cultivators spying on us in the shadows; they seem to be searching for something."

Huang Yiming gently hugged her and soothed her tenderly, "Don't be afraid, I'm here. No one can hurt you, and no one can destroy the Spirit Clan's sacred land." He recalled in Volume 5 that he went to the Spirit Clan's sacred land and rescued Ling Xi, who was being chased by evil cultivators. At that time, she was still an innocent Spirit Clan girl, but now she has grown into a capable Spirit Saintess, protecting the Spirit Clan and the Twin Realms' spiritual veins.

The two walked to the sacred stone tablet. The ancient characters on the tablet shone brightly, resonating strongly with the Dragon Clan Key and the Boundary Origin Jade Pendant (Volume 9) in Huang Yiming's hands, radiating light. Huang Yiming placed the Dragon Clan Key and the Boundary Origin Jade Pendant on the stone tablet, and the ancient characters instantly became clear and easy to understand, slowly revealing a secret sealed for thousands of years before their eyes.

A thousand years ago, the Spirit Race and the Dragon Race were on friendly terms, jointly protecting the Azure Netherworld and resisting the invasion of the evil cultivators from the Primordial Chaos Realm and the Black Demon Realm. At that time, the evil cultivators of the Primordial Chaos Realm were powerful, leading Black Demon Realm cultivators in a massive invasion of the Azure Netherworld. The Spirit Race and the Dragon Race joined forces to resist and fought a bloody battle, but ultimately they were no match for them. In order to protect the Azure Netherworld and leave hope behind, the Dragon Race leader left the Dragon Race Key and the core of the [Interdimensional System] in the Azure Netherworld, while he led the remaining Dragon Race forces to retreat to the Primordial Chaos Realm, waiting for a successor who could unify the two realms and resist external enemies—and that successor was Huang Yiming.

"So this is how the system originated." Huang Yiming was shocked, finally understanding that from the moment he awakened the system after failing the college entrance exam, he had shouldered the mission of protecting the two realms and resisting foreign enemies. Ling Xi leaned on his shoulder, her eyes full of emotion: "So it turns out that my Spirit Clan and the Dragon Clan have such a deep connection. In the great war a thousand years ago, our Spirit Clan also paid a heavy price. My ancestors sacrificed themselves in that great war."

Just then, a strange black shadow suddenly darted out from the shadows and pounced on the Dragon Clan Key on the stone tablet, speaking arrogantly: "Huang Yiming, Ling Xi, I didn't expect you to have unlocked the secrets of a thousand years ago, but the Dragon Clan Key must belong to me today!" The black shadow was surrounded by a dense evil aura, and was a wicked cultivator from the Hongmeng Realm, whose cultivation had reached the mid-Nascent Soul stage, making him stronger than the wicked cultivators he had encountered before.

"You audacious evil cultivator, how dare you trespass into the sacred ground of the Spirit Clan and steal the Dragon Clan's key! You're courting death!" Ling Xi roared, activating her Spirit Clan bloodline and gathering spiritual energy at her fingertips to attack the dark figure. She had awakened a hybrid bloodline of the Spirit Clan and the Dragon Clan (Chapter 378 Hook), greatly increasing her combat power. Her spiritual energy contained a faint trace of Dragon Clan power, making it incredibly potent.

The shadowy figure sneered, raising its hand to release its malevolent energy, which collided with Ling Xi's spiritual energy, creating a violent explosion. "You think you can stop me?" the shadowy figure said contemptuously. "The Spirit Race has long since declined; you're nothing but a hybrid, no match for me. Huang Yiming, though you are a Supreme Being of Two Realms, you only have mid-Nascent Soul cultivation; you can't stop me either!"

Huang Yiming's eyes turned cold. He didn't immediately attack, but instead deliberately held back his strength, playing the fool while letting Lingxi fight the shadowy figure. He knew Lingxi needed to grow and face her enemies alone, and he would step in to protect her if she was in danger. After dozens of rounds of fierce fighting, Lingxi gradually fell into a disadvantageous position, blood trickling from the corner of her mouth, and she staggered.

"Lingxi!" Upon seeing this, Huang Yiming immediately attacked, gathering Nascent Soul power at his fingertips and combining it with Dragon Clan techniques to strike the shadowy figure. Caught off guard, the shadowy figure was struck by the attack, flying backward and spitting out a mouthful of blood. "Impossible! How can you have such strong combat power?" The shadowy figure was filled with disbelief; he hadn't expected Huang Yiming's combat power to be even stronger than he had imagined.

"You think I really only have the cultivation of the mid-stage Nascent Soul?" Huang Yiming sneered, his aura erupting once again, revealing his peak mid-stage Nascent Soul combat power. "Back in the Black Stone Sect (Volume 6), I pretended to be weak and killed the sect leader of the Black Stone Sect; in the Celestial Immortal Realm (Chapter 368), I crushed the Celestial Immortal Realm envoy. Today, you will do the same!" Before he finished speaking, he flashed to the black shadow, and spiritual energy suddenly burst forth from his fingertips, piercing straight into the black shadow's heart.

The dark figure collapsed to the ground, barely breathing, its eyes filled with resentment: "My master will never let you go! Nascent Soul stage cultivators from the Primordial Realm will arrive soon, and then you will all die..." Before it could finish speaking, it breathed its last. Huang Yiming withdrew his spiritual energy, turned around and helped Lingxi up, gently wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth: "It's alright, it's all over now."

Lingxi leaned against him, her eyes filled with emotion: "Yiming, thank you. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have been injured." Huang Yiming gently stroked her long hair: "Silly girl, we are family. If I don't protect you, who will?" The two smiled at each other, their warmth flowing, and the spiritual energy of the Spirit Clan's sacred land gradually returned to calm.

Huang Yiming looked at the ancient text on the stone tablet again and found that there was still a section of text that had not been deciphered. It recorded that after the Dragon Clan leader retreated to the Hongmeng Realm, he was besieged by evil cultivators in the Hongmeng Realm. He is now trapped in the core area of ​​the Hongmeng Realm and is waiting for the successor to rescue him. Lingxi's mixed bloodline is the key to finding the Dragon Clan leader.

"It seems we must head to the Hongmeng Realm as soon as possible to rescue the Dragon Clan leader," Huang Yiming said firmly. "Only by finding the Dragon Clan leader can we fully uncover the secrets of the Hongmeng Realm and resist the invasion of the evil cultivators." Ling Xi nodded, her eyes filled with determination: "I will fully cooperate with you. No matter how dangerous the road ahead, I will stay by your side."

Just then, Huang Yiming's communication jade talisman lit up again, carrying a message from Yang Xiu: "Yiming, the traps in the dual-realm passage have all been dismantled, but we've discovered that cultivators from the Black Demon Realm are secretly gathering, seemingly preparing to activate the teleportation array. Furthermore, the remnants of the evil cultivators from the Hongmeng Realm are also heading towards the Spirit Clan's holy land." Huang Yiming's eyes sharpened; he knew an even greater crisis was imminent. The Black Demon Realm was about to activate the teleportation array, the remnants of the evil cultivators from the Hongmeng Realm were launching a massive attack, and Ling Xi's mixed bloodline not only allowed her to find the Dragon Clan leader but also concealed a secret powerful enough to change the fate of both realms.
