Standing on the jade platform, Lu Ye was torn between tears and laughter. He had run out of Spiritual Power, and even his injury had been affected. His chest was in so much pain that blood almost spurted out of his wounds.
It wasn’t a big deal anyway. He was curious about where the Teleportation Ward was sending him as the motion was turbulent.
The Teleportation Ward he built could send him somewhere that was 300 to 400 kilometres away. After the mysterious woman saved him at the River of Exuberance, they used a Teleportation Ward and went to a place that was 1,000 kilometres away.
However, when the mysterious woman activated the ward, the motion wasn’t as violent as this time.
In other words, the ward was most likely connected to a faraway place. Perhaps he would move across several thousand or even ten thousand kilometres.
He quickly pulled himself together.
The next moment, he felt a sense of weightlessness as though he had lost his balance and plunged into an abyss.
While feeling dizzy, he heard Amber screaming, and he realised he was about to pass out.
He didn’t know that one might black out while being teleported, but there was nothing he could do to stop it.
[I hope it’ll be safe on the other side…] As soon as the thought flashed across his mind, he lost consciousness.
…
“Sixth Brother! Sixth Brother!” someone was heard calling out to him. The voice was filled with anxiety and distress with a hint of suppressed sobs.
Lu Ye slowly came to his senses, but he didn’t know where he was. Suddenly, some strange information sprang into his mind.
Soaring Dragon Boundary, Feng Zhou, Tyrant Blade Manor, the Sixth Young Master of the Ye Family…
A lot of strange information intertwined with his own memory as they were undulating in his mind, which gave him a sense of familiarity for some reason.
He recalled that something similar had happened before.
After giving it some thought, he realised that he had experienced the same thing in the past.
It was when he entered Myriad Beast Domain previously.
At that time, some strange information also sprang into his mind. The information was about his identity in Myriad Beast Domain.
When a cultivator entered a Hidden Realm like the Myriad Beast Domain, he would be given an identity so that he could better integrate into the Hidden Realm and take part in the major events.
In Myriad Beast Domain, Lu Ye was the Young Sect Master of Myriad Beasts Sect. With the company of Xia Qianqian and the other maidservants, he went to the Two Realms to seek refuge. It could be said that he had a wonderful starting point.
Much to his surprise, the same thing happened again.
As he recalled the teleportation earlier, he suddenly realised that the Teleportation Ward wasn’t connected to anywhere on the Cloud River Battlefield. Instead, it had sent him into a Hidden Realm.
It was no wonder it was turbulent during the teleportation. He initially thought he would be sent to a place that was several thousand to ten thousand kilometres away, but it didn’t seem to be the case.
Although he had regained consciousness, he was lethargic. The Teleportation Ward had drained all of his Spiritual Power and affected his injury. Also, after such a violent teleportation, he was shrouded in a sense of frailty.
He wasn’t in a hurry to open his eyes. Instead, he tried to sort out the information in his mind.
He was in a place called Soaring Dragon Boundary. It was said that Dragons once lived in this place. Tyrant Blade Manor was the great force where Lu Ye came from. It was one of the most powerful great forces in the Soaring Dragon Boundary.
The Master of Tyrant Blade Manor, Ye Ying, started his business from scratch and made a name for himself. There was no doubt he was formidable. He had six Sons and one Daughter, and they were all brilliant people.
Such a great force was supposed to be thriving for generations to come. However, something terrible happened a few days ago. The Master of Tyrant Blade Manor, Ye Ying, passed away for no reason. Following that, a group of disguised cultivators broke into Tyrant Blade Manor and killed many of the disciples. Five out of Ye Ying’s seven children were killed on the spot while the sixth Son, Lu Ye, and the youngest Daughter, Ye Liuli, managed to run away.
They arrived at Mount Magnifique together, but they were on their last legs.
Lu Ye couldn’t help but lament and wonder what the inscrutable Heavens were up to.
Previously, he was the Young Sect Master of Myriad Beasts Sect, and now, he could be considered a Young Master of Tyrant Blade Manor. Both of the families were wealthy and powerful.
The crux of the problem was that both Myriad Beasts Sect and Tyrant Blade Manor were destroyed.
Both experiences were similar.
“Sixth Brother…” Lu Ye heard a young girl wailing. Following that, he felt a finger below his nostrils, as though the young girl was trying to find out if he was still alive.
His injury had been affected during the teleportation, and the process had also mounted immense pressure on him. On the other hand, in Soaring Dragon Boundary, he was injured when fighting the enemies in Tyrant Blade Manor. Either way, his injury allowed him to blend into the situation well.
“Liuli…” Lu Ye opened his eyes and called out weakly.
“Sixth Brother.” Ye Liuli’s listless gaze radiated a glow in an instant. Just several days ago, her family was destroyed, and she had turned from a wealthy young lady of Tyrant Blade Manor to someone who was running for her life since her family was gone. She had been living a prestigious life, so the turn of events was devastating for her. Now, she was only left with an only family member. If Lu Ye also passed away, she wouldn’t know what she could do.
At the end of the day, she was just a 15-year-old young girl who had never experienced the vicissitudes of life.
She quickly picked up a bowl of medicine and scooped it up with a spoon before holding it out for Lu Ye. Suppressing her sorrow, she said, “Let’s take some medicine, Sixth Brother.”
As the warm liquid entered Lu Ye’s mouth, he found it bitter. He had no idea if the medicine was useful. However, since he had run out of energy, he could only let her do whatever she wanted.
After finishing the medicine, he felt even more exhausted. He then said gently, “I’ll sleep for a while more.”
Ye Liuli nodded. “Please get more rest, Sixth Brother. I’ll keep guard for you.” The turn of events had made the young girl mentally tougher.
Lu Ye closed his eyes but didn’t fall asleep. Instead, he fell into his thoughts.
He didn’t expect that the jade platform in the dangerous area outside Hundred Wards Tower would send him into such a Hidden Realm.
However, he was certain that no one had ever discovered or entered this Hidden Realm before.
After all, it was hard to find the place where the platform was located. No one had expected there would be an entrance to a Hidden Realm in the dangerous area.
Moreover, even if they found it, Cloud River Realm Masters were unable to enter.
They had to complete the Teleportation Ward on the platform before they would be sent to this place. The incomplete ward was like a test. Only those who passed the test had the right to enter this place.
On the entire Cloud River Battlefield, no one else could achieve that except for Lu Ye.
Since he had arrived at this place, he decided to wait and see how things would go.
Strictly speaking, since he started cultivating, the only Hidden Realms he had experienced were the Lost City of Xianyuan and Myriad Beast Domain. This could be considered his third Hidden Realm.
Hidden Realms were usually filled with all sorts of danger, but they also came with great opportunities, which was why cultivators loved venturing into them.
Although Lu Ye had accidentally entered this place, he wasn’t in a hurry to leave. Perhaps he would get some benefits out of it.
However, Amber was nowhere to be seen. The tiger was crouching on his shoulder during the teleportation, but it wasn’t by his side now.
That shouldn’t be a big problem. When he arrived at Myriad Beast Domain previously, Amber wasn’t by his side in the beginning as well. Since he could feel his Battlefield Imprint, he was supposedly able to contact Yi Yi.
Now, he had to figure out what he should do in this Hidden Realm.
Usually, for a large-scale Hidden Realm with a world of its own like this, cultivators would enter it when a major incident had happened. For example, when Lu Ye arrived at Myriad Beast Domain previously, the entire Realm was about to be destroyed.
There was no doubt that the cultivators had a job to do.
Certainly, the Heavens wouldn’t tell them what to do. Instead, they had to explore it on their own.
In Myriad Beast Domain, the cultivators had to fend off the beasts’ attack and solve the problem from the roots, which would allow them to earn a lot of battle points.
It was the same case for what had happened in Fox Immortal Valley. Although it wasn’t a Hidden Realm, Lu Ye had killed the evil Fox Mutants, which solved a big threat on the Cloud River Battlefield. Following that, he was handsomely rewarded by the Heavens.
[What am I supposed to do in Soaring Dragon Boundary? Has anything major happened here?]
He had no idea for the time being. Although he had obtained a lot of information about this world, he wasn’t the real Sixth Young Master of the Ye Family. After all, he was an Outsider, so he knew little about this world.
Moreover, he was supposed to solve the most pressing issue at the moment.
Tyrant Blade Manor had been destroyed, and Ye Six’s Brothers were all killed. Only he and Ye Liuli managed to escape with the help of the manor’s loyal servants.
However, that didn’t mean they were safe.
He supposed some people were hunting them down to destroy them so that there wouldn’t be a threat in the future.
As such, he had to contact Yi Yi immediately. Given his health condition, the power he could use was limited. Ye Liuli didn’t seem powerful either. It seemed that she had just ascended to the Cloud River Realm. Moreover, she was exhausted from running away for a long time. She could probably only use a fraction of her power.
They would only be safe with Yi Yi and Amber around.
At the thought of this, Lu Ye tapped on his Battlefield Imprint and sent a message.
Soon, Yi Yi replied to him.
She and Amber were in a dense forest, but she couldn’t identify the exact location.
It seemed that luck was on Lu Ye’s side as Yi Yi and Amber were also on Mount Magnifique. However, it would take them some effort to reunite.
“Liuli,” Lu Ye called out softly.
Beside him, Ye Liuli appeared so knackered that she was about to doze off. She lifted her head upon hearing his words. There were traces of tears on her face, and her eyes were still bloodshot. “What’s wrong, Sixth Brother?”
“Is there anything special around this place?”
Ye Liuli had no idea why Lu Ye asked such a question at this point. After giving it some thought, she replied, “It’s just a cave I chanced upon. There’s a jujube tree outside. Is it considered a special feature?”
“What else? What about the terrain?”
She pondered for a moment before describing the terrain of this area.
“I got it,” Lu Ye said and sent the information to Yi Yi.
Ye Liuli looked doubtfully at Lu Ye, who closed his eyes again. As such, she could only suppress her doubt and stop speaking further.
