Crossing the boundary gate, Chu Xuan returned to the Federation. The surroundings were no different from when he left. The perimeter was separated from the outside by a security net, and fully armed soldiers stood in the distance.

"You're back!"

An Qiuyue leaped down from the tree and landed steadily in front of Chu Xuan.

Chu Xuan was startled, but relaxed after realizing what was happening.

When Chu Xuan arrived, he subconsciously used his divine sense to explore his surroundings but found nothing unusual. Suddenly, a person jumped out, which really startled Chu Xuan.

However, remembering that this was the Federation, everything made sense. In Qingyuefang, he was a genuine, hidden big shot, but in the Federation, he was just a nobody.

According to the Federation's standards, he wasn't even at the Foundation Establishment stage, while An Qiuyue in front of him was already at the Golden Core stage.

It's normal that you don't notice it yourself; it would be strange if you actually did.

"Senior An, I'm back," Chu Xuan nodded.

"Can we still go in?"

Seeing An Qiuyue's expectant gaze, Chu Xuan immediately nodded and said, "Okay!"

"Senior An, I can confirm that we should be able to freely enter and exit the secret realm from now on!"

"Very good!"

An Qiuyue was overjoyed. "Not bad, not bad! Junior Brother Chu, whether I can achieve Nascent Soul in this lifetime depends on you."

"Senior, it can't be that bad."

"As for it!"

"You haven't even reached the Foundation Establishment stage yet, and with the support of the secret realm, you can't feel the scarcity of Federation resources. You can't understand the suffering of ordinary Golden Core cultivators like us."

The suffering of an ordinary Golden Core cultivator!

These words don't fit together at all when spoken.

"Senior An, you are a Golden Core cultivator, while I am merely a Qi Refining cultivator..."

Before Chu Xuan could finish speaking, An Qiuyue interrupted him, "Come on, in the Immortal Mansion, there's no difference between Qi Refining and Golden Core, they're the same thing, they're both disciples of the Immortal Mansion."

"But the difference between having a secret realm and not having one is huge!"

As the two were talking, Elder Du's figure appeared silently, and the surrounding atmosphere changed instantly. The two people's gazes subconsciously converged on Elder Du.

As before, the moment Elder Du appeared, he became the center of this world.

"Elder Du!"

Chu Xuan and An Qiuyue's expressions immediately turned solemn, and they bowed respectfully.

"No need for such formalities."

Elder Du's gaze fell on Chu Xuan, and he nodded, saying, "Not bad!"

Elder Du then turned to the surrounding soldiers and said, "Pass down the order: designate this area, within a ten-mile radius, as a military restricted zone for the construction of a military base!"

"yes!"

The army commander immediately saluted.

"Come with me."

Elder Du's gaze fell on Chu Xuan, and the moment his voice fell, the surrounding environment instantly distorted, and in the blink of an eye, they were back at the location of the Shock Gate.

At the same time, the rocks on the side surged and transformed into stone tables and benches, and the grass and trees took shape and became teacups.

"sit!"

"yes!"

Just like when they first met, the three of them sat around the stone table.

"Are you sure you can freely enter and exit the secret realm?"

Even though he had heard it before, Elder Du still spoke up again to confirm.

Chu Xuan immediately nodded and said, "I'm sure. I can move freely within the secret realm. I can enter the secret realm whenever I want, and I can also leave with a single thought."

"However, the only way to enter the secret realm is from that spot."

"What a lucky child!"

Hearing this, even Elder Du couldn't help but sigh.

Elder Du had never seen such a secret realm in all his years of life. This kind of exclusive secret realm, which seemed to be tailor-made for a single person, was something that even Elder Du had only heard of in legends.

Ordinary secret realms either open directly to the public, allowing anyone to enter, or they conduct a large-scale screening of suitable candidates, allowing them to enter and then selecting suitable disciples.

Regardless of the method, a large number of disciples will enter, and each entry into the secret realm is a precious opportunity that cannot be sought after.

Some people can only enter once in their lifetime. A secret realm that can be entered at will, with just a thought, is truly too extravagant.

"Elder Du, you are very knowledgeable. Have you ever seen such a secret realm before?" An Qiuyue asked curiously from the side.

Elder Du was shocked by Chu Xuan's experience, as was An Qiuyue. Although An Qiuyue was only over seventy years old and had seen a fair number of secret realms, she had never seen such a peculiar one.

This secret realm seems to have been specially created for Junior Brother Chu.

"I've never seen it either," Elder Du shook his head slightly.

"Even you haven't seen this before?" An Qiuyue said with some surprise. A secret realm that even a Nascent Soul Realm elder hadn't seen was quite rare.

Chu Xuan thought to himself that something was wrong; it seemed that what he had shown was a bit too much.

In the Federation, having secret realms is nothing special, after all, the Immortal Abode is built upon secret realms. Without secret realms, there would be no Immortal Abode, and no Federation as we know it today.

The rise of the Immortal Venerable Wuji took place within a secret realm.

The problem is that his secret realm seems to be a bit special. If he hasn't even seen many Nascent Soul cultivators, he will inevitably become the target of everyone's criticism.

This is troublesome.

However, at that moment, Elder Du's words reassured Chu Xuan considerably.

"However, I have heard of similar cases."

"How so?" An Qiuyue asked the question Chu Xuan wanted to ask.

Elder Du calmly said, "This is not actually that rare, it's just that it's been too long. These kinds of secret realms were basically all opened up in the recent ancient period, so they are naturally rare now."

Neither of them spoke, waiting for Elder Du to continue.

"There is a secret realm called the Bloodline Secret Realm. It is a secret realm left by powerful people specifically for their bloodline descendants. There is only one way to open the secret realm, and that is when the bloodlines match."

"This is highly targeted; only people with specific bloodlines can open it. Without specific bloodlines, even if you are exceptionally talented, you cannot open the secret realm."

"However, these kinds of secret realms, which only consider bloodline and not aptitude, usually open very early on."

"The first generation leaves behind a secret realm, which the second generation can then open. Generally, after about ten generations, the secret realm will be gone."

"These kinds of secret realms usually don't last very long, and they are the fewest of the secret realms to have survived."

"After all, as time goes by, the bloodline becomes increasingly diluted, making it difficult for future generations to open the secret realm. If it can't be opened for ten thousand years, it will basically be impossible to open it in the future."

An Qiuyue, standing to the side, nodded thoughtfully. "So, what's this about Junior Brother Chu?"

"It must be a bloodline reversion that happened to trigger the secret realm!"

"Although very few bloodline secret realms have survived, some bloodline secret realms that have never been opened have survived because most of the direct bloodline members were killed."

"It's not impossible that if a descendant happens to have a bloodline reversion to their ancestral form, thus unlocking the secret realm!"
