Dragon-Locking Forbidden Land!

Four fully armed young men were resting in the mountains. "Do you think we can find the secret realm?"

"Are you dreaming?"

"Just relax here and broaden your horizons. Secret realms aren't that easy to find."

The bespectacled man next to him adjusted his glasses. "As far as I know, the last time the Chu Xuan Secret Realm appeared in the Dragon Lock Forbidden Land was three months ago, but this secret realm was locked down by the Federation a year in advance."

"The last time a truly privately discovered secret realm appeared was seven years ago."

The sporty girl next to him rolled her eyes at him, "Put your fairy glasses down before you speak."

"Never mind that, I'm providing authoritative data anyway."

"Let's go have some more fun for two days, then go home and train."

"good!"

Upon hearing this, everyone stood up, preparing to continue forward. Just then, the bespectacled man suddenly noticed a person appear out of nowhere.

The bespectacled man paused, then said, "Look, isn't there one more person?"

"Who are you? There are so many people. You must have misremembered."

"No, there's one more person!"

"A secret realm!"

"It must be a secret realm!"

Upon hearing this, all four people's eyes immediately focused on Chu Xuan. Chu Xuan looked at their modern style of dress and a smile appeared on his face.

Four and a half years have passed, and I'm finally back.

Five and a half years after graduation, having refined my body and established my foundation, I am finally able to step into the Immortal Abode.

"Brother, you've discovered a secret realm?" the bespectacled man asked tentatively as he stepped forward.

Chu Xuan nodded. "That's right."

"real?"

Upon hearing this, all four men gasped for breath. "Brother, you really discovered the secret realm? How did you get in?"

"Can we go in?"

Just as the four were talking, a golden light pierced through the air from afar, and a short-haired beauty wearing a leather jacket stood in the void, with nothing supporting her around her, just standing straight in mid-air.

Soaring through the air in vain, a Golden Core cultivator!

As soon as the woman in the leather jacket arrived, her gaze immediately locked onto Chu Xuan, a hint of surprise appearing in her beautiful eyes. "Second-stage Body Refinement, so young. It seems he has truly discovered the secret realm."

The Golden Core cultivator's divine sense swept out, thoroughly searching the surrounding mountains and forests, but still found nothing unusual.

The woman was not discouraged; on the contrary, she was even happier. "Not bad, not bad," she thought, "another high-grade secret realm. The Immortal Mansion's treasure vault will yield even more good things."

"Please wait a moment. I have already notified the major general stationed in the forbidden area. The army will be here soon. Once the army arrives, I will take you to see the garrison elder."

"Okay, thank you, senior."

The short-haired beauty laughed upon hearing this. "Young man, you're quite polite. You've already reached the second stage of Body Refinement, and you'll be a disciple of the Immortal Mansion soon. My name is An Qiuyue, and I'm a disciple of the Immortal Mansion from the 1840th class. You can call me senior sister from now on."

"Senior An."

Chu Xuan immediately and honestly called out that he was a disciple of the Immortal Mansion from the class of 1840. He graduated in 2026, which meant that this Senior Sister An was forty-six years older than him.

I am twenty-four years old now, and this Senior Sister An is only seventy years old, and she is already a Golden Core cultivator.

As expected of a prodigy from the Immortal Abode, if he were in the Xuanming Sect, he could probably even go toe-to-toe with the sect's patriarch.

Moreover, given the Federation's heritage, the cultivation technique this senior is practicing is at least a Celestial Scripture, so the Xuanming Sect's patriarch is very likely no match for her.

The gap between the two realms is truly vast. A sect patriarch who dominates a region is merely an ordinary disciple in the Federation Immortal Mansion.

"Junior, what's your name? Which high school did you graduate from?" An Qiuyue asked casually.

"Senior, my name is Chu Xuan. I graduated from Mingjiang No. 1 High School."

"Bai Qingqing, the junior from Mingjiang City, is also from Mingjiang City. I think she's also from the No. 1 Middle School in the city. Do you know her?" An Qiuyue's eyes lit up slightly, and she immediately asked.

Unexpectedly, even the disciples of the Immortal Abode stationed in the forbidden area had heard about Bai Qingqing's deeds. But then again, a genius who scores twelve points in the college entrance examination, the Immortal Abode may only produce one like her every few years.

"I know them, but they don't know me. We were in the same year."

"Oh, you graduated in 2026, which means it's only been five and a half years since you graduated. Five and a half years to reach the second level of body refinement, Junior Brother Chu, many disciples of the Immortal Mansion can't catch up with your progress."

"It seems there are quite a few good things in this secret realm."

Chu Xuan gave a humble smile.

As they were speaking, three helicopters flew in and descended. The gate opened, and fully armed soldiers jumped out and landed steadily.

The Federal Army is the place with the highest probability of entering the Immortal Mansion besides the College Entrance Examination. It's not that there are extra quotas in the army, but mainly the atmosphere and training in the army. In addition, the Immortal Mansion will occasionally release some resources to reward the experts in the army, which creates a large number of body-refining experts. Every year, a lot of second-level body cultivators will enter the Immortal Mansion to cultivate.

The Federal Army operates on a ten-year system. Those who enlist for the first ten years are privates, spending most of their time in military camps. Only after ten years, when their cultivation reaches the late stage of Body Refinement, can they be promoted to non-commissioned officers and carry out missions throughout the Federation.

For experts in the late stage of body refinement, a height of only a few dozen meters is nothing.

After landing, the sergeant immediately took over the surrounding defenses, protecting the area. The leader strode forward and saluted An Qiuyue.

"General, our company has been ordered to take over the defense of this area. You may leave now!"

"Alright, this place is now in your hands."

An Qiuyue took a step forward and appeared directly beside Chu Xuan. She grabbed Chu Xuan's shoulder with one hand, and Chu Xuan's vision blurred as he was instantly lifted into the air. The surrounding scenery merged into one, and the speed was so fast that Chu Xuan could not even see the surrounding scene clearly.

"So fast!"

In just a few breaths, Chu Xuan returned to the ground. He found himself on a platform surrounded by clouds and mist, and in front of him stood a six-story building with an ancient style.

"This is one of the key points of the Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation, and also the key point of the Human Plate Eight Gates Shock Gate Formation. An elder from the Immortal Mansion is stationed here!"

An Qiuyue turned to Chu Xuan and said something, then bowed respectfully to the small building in front of her and said, "Elder Du, someone has triggered the Heavenly Surveillance Array. He is twenty-four years old and at the second level of Body Refinement. He must have discovered the secret realm."

"Another lucky little guy."

An aged voice rang out, and an old woman with white hair and a youthful face, dressed in coarse linen clothes, holding a cane, suddenly appeared before the two.

The moment the old woman appeared, everything around her changed imperceptibly. Everything revolved around her, and the surrounding space seemed to be stripped away.

This old woman is the sole core of this small world.

The moment this person appeared, he transformed the surrounding area into his own domain.

Chu Xuan couldn't help but gasp. So this was a Federation Elder? So powerful!
