At this moment, the white-haired old man waved his hand and released a burst of spirit energy, like a gush of sword Qi. A ripple appeared in the air and started to slowly undulate.
"Formation!" Ye Xiao watched on as a formation was hidden in the void. The strand of spiritual energy that the white-haired old man had released earlier seemed ordinary, but it was like a key that allowed the formation to open as well.
Accompanying the fluctuations of space, a violet vortex suddenly appeared in the middle of the air, slowly rotating. It was like a gate of the starry sky, emitting an incomparably mysterious aura.
Suddenly, a huge crack gradually started to appear behind the formation. People were shocked to see another world on the other side of that crack.
Endless mountain ranges, ancient trees soaring into the sky, huge vines that coiled like dragons, and mountains that looked to climb as high as the heavens. However, people felt as if they were disconnected, and they were unable to sense that world's aura.
When that crack first appeared, that white-haired elder had immediately started forming hand seals. Following his hand seals, an enormous rune appeared behind him.
But if someone were to look at it closely, they would be able to tell that this rune was actually made of tens of thousands of smaller runes. That rune lit up this entire space.
An explosive sound rang out from the void. The purple vortex had completely opened up. It was completely misty and mysterious.
"The Secret Realm is open. All of you will enter the secret realm according to the rank of your countries!"
When the geniuses heard this, they followed suit.
All of them started to enter according to their countries rank.
First of all, the geniuses from the Grand Xia Empire entered the secret realm following behind them were the geniuses of the first-grade countries, and then second-grade countries and then third-grade countries.
When everyone stepped into the purple vortex, a purple power would quietly enter their bodies.
"This is leaving an imprint on your body. When the secret realm will be about to close, this imprint will help all of you to come out."
"If some of choose not to come out, this imprint will forcefully teleport them out of the secret realm."
The white-haired old man's voice floated over, causing everyone to let their guard down, and step in expectantly.
When Ye Xiao stepped into the purple door, without any surprise, a power that was similar to an imprint entered his body.
The white-haired old man has already explained about the imprint so Ye Xiao did not try to stop it.
In just an instant, Ye Xiao's body completely entered The Secret Realm.
In that instant, it was as if he passed through different dimensions of space and time, an incomparably wonderful feeling born in his heart.
Very quickly, the darkness disappeared, and Ye Xiao felt that he had landed on the ground. He looked around and immediately revealed a look of astonishment.
This was an incomparably magnificent dream-like world. Many flowers were blooming on the hillside, and there were also gurgling streams flowing all the way out of his sight.
At the moment, there was no one here other than himself. The other people seemed to have been teleported to other locations.
Ye Xiao did not immediately leave from the place he landed, but choose to inspect his surroundings carefully.
This Secret Realm was an unexplored Secret Realm and there can be many dangers at any place.
No matter what, safety was the priority.
After Ye Xiao looked around, he did not discover anything.
He chose a direction and started to move in that direction.
"Ahhh!"
Suddenly, a shrill and miserable scream rang out from far away, and then a terrifying sound shaking the void rang out.
"Someone is already been killed!"
Ye Xiao's heart pounded heavily. This was only the beginning, he didn't expect a cultivator to die already. He simply didn't know what exactly the other party had provoked.
Immediately after, he activated his ability, the Spirit Devour Escape which he gained after completely merging with the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon, and flew toward the direction he was walking with an incomparable speed.
Soon, he saw a forest. Without stopping, he entered the forest.
The forest was vast, almost limitless. There were rotting plants all around, as well as some magical beasts and poisonous creatures that were hard to guard against.
Right now, in this forest, there were berserk beasts, poisonous creatures, and other powerful geniuses everywhere!
"Aooo!"
At this moment, an ear-piercing cry of a bird sounded out, then an enormous figure shot up into the sky, covering the sky and blotting out the sun as it swept up waves of fierce force.
"This is the Horned Eagle!"
Staring at the gigantic bird in the sky, Ye Xiao sighed in admiration. Every feather was as sharp as a sword and a cold light flickered within.
The Horned Eagle suddenly flapped its wings and dive toward Ye Xiao from the sky.
"What a sharp sight?"
Ye Xiao could not help but think in his heart then he once again activated the Spirit Devour Escape and with a 'woosh' sound, he disappeared from the place he was standing before.
The Horned Eagle missed its target and directly collided with a tree.
Exactly at this moment, Ye Xiao appeared behind the back of the Horned Eagle.
"Sacred Finger Art!"
He immediately executed the Sacred Finger Art which directly pierced in the back of the Horned Eagle.
"Aoo!"
The Horned Eagle screamed loudly. It once again flapped its big wings and flew in the sky.
it was badly injured by Ye Xiao and maybe it has high intelligence because of which, it clearly understood that it has no chance of winning against Ye Xiao. So, it directly escaped without even looking back at Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao was shocked as he looked at the escaping eagle. He never thought that just a mere eagle has this high intelligence in the Secret Realm.
