Reverse War Surpass Immortal

Chapter 1184 - 1056: Found a Clue (2)

He would rather believe that the Wushan Clan Chief left the lives of those Divine World Martial Artists so that the three of them could save them."Clan Chief, look!"

Senior Xuan immediately showed the rune on his left hand to the Wushan Clan Chief to let him see if there was anything wrong with it.

The Wushan Clan Chief saw the rune on his left hand, let out a breath, and immediately asked, "Immortal, can you help us dissolve the runes on us?"

Senior Xuan replied plainly, "I can't give you a definite answer on that right now. I don't even know if the rune on my hand works! Clan Chief, if I really dissolved the rune on you, then you might end up like us, permanently trapped here! Think it over seriously, Clan Chief. Without the rune, if your body enters this ancient well, it will be completely corroded by the water inside. Consider carefully before deciding! Don't worry, the three of us can discover things about your Secret Realm that you might not be able to detect. How about this, Clan Chief, first take us for a tour around your Secret Realm, maybe we can find things that you can't detect!"

"Alright!"

The Wushan Clan Chief fully trusted Senior Xuan's words and immediately decided to show all three of them around every corner of the Secret Realm.

"When you two set out with me, make sure to keep your eyes wide open and carefully investigate every corner around you! You must not overlook any possible clues here!"

Senior Xuan said very seriously to Duan Gujin and Shi Potian.

"Okay!"

Duan Gujin and Shi Potian felt a sense of urgency, realizing there was more to what Senior Xuan said.

They knew that the places they could see and enter might be beyond the observation of the Wushan Clan Chief in front of them.

"That's their advantage!"

With that, the three of them, under the guidance of the Wushan Clan Chief, carefully investigated every part of the Secret Realm.

Soon enough, they really found an area that the Wushan Clan Chief could not enter.

Seeing the three of them enter that area simultaneously, the Wushan Clan Chief realized only then that there were areas in this Secret Realm his clan members could not enter.

He used to lead a body occupied by his Divine Soul through here, but back then, the body was unable to enter inside.

Previously, he thought the area he reached was the farthest in the Secret Realm. Now, he saw Duan Gujin, Shi Potian, and Senior Xuan entering the clearing ahead that he couldn't enter, feeling a deep sense of regret!

"I understand now; this is the secret of the Secret Realm!"

The Wushan Clan Chief felt a deep frustration, recalling how his Divine Soul occupied some bodies and came to the Nine Phase World.

He had intended to leave the Nine Phase World.

But quickly, he realized that no matter how much he exerted extreme speed, his body was still trapped in the Nine Phase World.

Moreover, he discovered his body could not get close to certain areas.

Back then, he worried he might encounter the same situation within the Secret Realm.

Now he saw there were indeed places he simply couldn't enter in the Secret Realm.

Duan Gujin, Senior Xuan, and Shi Potian took a glance around, and quickly decided to explore places the Wushan Clan Chief hadn't told them about.

"Do you think that Wushan Clan Chief lied?"

Senior Xuan suddenly asked.

"I think he probably didn't lie!"

Duan Gujin pondered for a while and answered.

"I also think the old Clan Leader didn't lie!"

Shi Potian agreed.

"Most likely, we are going to uncover the truth here!"

Senior Xuan's eyes flashed as he spoke.

"Absolutely!"

Duan Gujin and Shi Potian answered in unison.

The three of them progressed to the left, their eyes wide open, cautiously investigating the surroundings, fearing to miss any detail.

After a while, in front of them, they saw a lighthouse.

"Previously, the Chief told me there were no lighthouses here! Let's get inside and investigate!"

Senior Xuan was quite excited, and he immediately advanced with Duan Gujin and Shi Potian toward the lighthouse.

Once inside, they found a stele in the lighthouse.

The material of the stele was similar to the one the Wushan Clan Chief had shown them earlier, with many Immortal texts on it.

All three of them understood the Immortal texts, and they carefully examined the writings.

Soon, they figured out the truth.

"So it turns out that those trapped outside had once betrayed the Immortal Domain. Thus, the Immortal Domain punished them to guard the Nine Phase World here! This Nine Phase World is actually a cage; they receive all the resources they need to survive here, but lose their freedom, trapped indefinitely in this Secret Realm until they perish!"

Knowing this truth, a thought crossed all three of their minds simultaneously. They were eager to know how those trapped people had betrayed the Immortal Domain to face such severe punishment.

The entire families of those people were perpetually imprisoned in this Secret Realm. Though they need not worry about food and clothing, losing freedom meant living in a giant cage.

"This punishment from the Immortal Domain is severe!"

Duan Gujin remarked with a sigh.

In the Immortal Domain, many who betrayed it received harsh punishments from the Immortal Domain!

Therefore, they did not think the Immortal Domain acted wrongly.

However, there was no record on this stele of what crimes those trapped here had committed, and that troubled them.

Thankfully, on the stone wall in the room, there were two maps; one matched the map they saw outside the lighthouse, and the other was a map of the Secret Realm.

What shocked them the most was that on the Secret Realm map, the well's name was labeled as the Spiritual Well.

In the Spiritual Well, there was a Spirit Puppet. If they could find all the Guiding Sky Stones in the Nine Phase World, the Spirit Puppet could unlock the treasures in the outside Nine Phase World, and all the creatures trapped within the Secret Realm could leave.

"So that's how it is! No wonder I always felt that the ancient well was so strange!"

Duan Gujin sighed in relief, now understanding the connection between the Secret Realm and the Nine Phase World.

"This Secret Realm is really mystical! But I still don't understand, why would the owner of this Secret Realm imprison all those people here?"

Senior Xuan questioned.

"There might be many reasons! Now we finally know the way to get out of here is to quickly find all the Guiding Sky Stones in the Nine Phase World!"

Shi Potian remarked.

"Exactly!"

After discussing for a while, they decided to immediately find the Guiding Sky Stones in the Nine Phase World.

If Exotic Realm Creatures outside took the Guiding Sky Stones, Duan Gujin and Shi Potian were likely to be permanently trapped here.

Currently, Senior Xuan was just a Spirit Body, and he could completely abandon this Spirit Body.

To ensure everything goes smoothly, they immediately searched the Secret Realm for other clues.

They spent half a day thoroughly searching the Secret Realm.

Only after confirming that there were no additional clues did they stop searching.

"How do we find the other Guiding Sky Stones in the outside Nine Phase World?"

Duan Gujin shared the contents of the stele with the Wushan Clan Chief.

Only then did the Wushan Clan Chief understand that to leave the Secret Realm, their clan had to find all the Guiding Sky Stones in the Nine Phase World.

"Place as many of your bodies as you can! Finally, your bodies can be put to good use now!"
