Chapter 471: The Heavenly Origin Ancestor Talisman
These past few days, it wasn’t just Yun Zhonghe who was diligently preparing to enter the Four Beasts Secret Realm, Mu Jixue, Lin Zhongyu, and Su Xiaoxiao were also putting in the extra effort.
Finally, on the third day, the Four Beasts Secret Realm was activated.
That day, a crowd of disciples came to observe as Yun Zhonghe and his trio made their way through everyone’s envious gazes, arriving at the entrance to the secret realm.
It was on that very day that Yun Zhonghe witnessed the second ancestral talisman of Xuantian Sect—the Heavenly Origin Ancestor Talisman!
Unlike the Summoning Ancestral Talisman, the Heavenly Origin Ancestor Talisman was massive, hovering above Xuantian Sect while emitting a warm white glow, making it clear for all to see.
Each individual ancestor talisman seemed almost as big as half a mountain!
That was quite a spectacle!
The reason Xuantian Sect had such ample spiritual energy could largely be attributed to the Heavenly Origin Ancestor Talisman.
Not only did it gather spiritual energy from the heavens and earth, but it also produced its own, providing Xuantian Sect with an endless supply of pure spiritual energy.
From the cultivation of its disciples, to the protection of its grand protective barrier, and even the maintenance of the beast forest, everything relied on the power of the Heavenly Origin Ancestor Talisman.
As long as it existed, even if the entire Cultivation Realm were to collapse, Xuantian Sect would still maintain abundant spiritual energy within its domain.
Put simply, the Heavenly Origin Ancestor Talisman was the root of Xuantian Sect. Some even speculated that “Heaven” in Xuantian Sect might refer to this talisman.
Normally, the talisman was stored deep in a restricted area within the sect. Beyond the sect master and a select few high-ranking figures, no one knew its exact location.
This time, to completely activate the Four Beasts Secret Realm, they had to fully release the power of the Heavenly Origin Ancestor Talisman, thus bringing it out of seclusion.
This required over a dozen Transformation Gods working together to perform the task.
After all, ancestor talismans are, in a sense, replicas of great truths. They possess independent powers beyond those of the natural order. Thus, anyone who isn’t at the Synthesizing Dao level finds it impossible to easily control these talismans…
Once the Heavenly Origin Ancestor Talisman was fully activated, the gathered disciples felt the air around them become several times richer in spiritual energy!
“This spiritual energy is so pure!”
“I didn’t expect just standing outside already makes me feel this pure spiritual energy!”
Countless disciples exclaimed in astonishment; it’s no wonder people say that entering the Four Beasts Secret Realm grants significant benefits, even without inheriting the powers of the four divine beasts. It seems this isn’t just a rumor.
If one could practice continuously inside for a few days without day or night, it would likely equate to years of cultivation outside!
“Though we didn’t get the qualification to enter, we can still have a taste.”
“Stop talking nonsense and sit down to absorb it!”
These initially curious disciples only came to witness the Tianyuan Ancestor Talisman, but now found themselves eager to grab a piece of the action, too. Each one sat cross-legged, channeling their cultivation techniques to absorb the spiritual energy around them.
“Tsk, tsk, Xuantian Sect’s Heavenly Origin Ancestor Talisman keeps getting stronger. I didn’t see it so impressive during the last opening of the Four Beasts Secret Realm. It looks like it won’t be long before it’s completed.”
A Transformation God from the South Continent, sitting in the Master Hall, could sense the power of the Heavenly Origin Ancestor Talisman from afar.
These years have seen Xuantian Sect nurturing the Heavenly Origin Ancestor Talisman, and it has steadily grown stronger. It’s no wonder it can produce such abundant spiritual energy, truly admirable.
Too bad, after the great competition ended, representatives from the Five Continents returned home, leaving only these high-level beings behind. Otherwise, they too wished for their descendants to experience the benefits of the Heavenly Origin Ancestor Talisman.
“The Heavenly Origin Ancestor Talisman is powerful, but it’s ultimately a supportive type. In terms of power, there’s no doubt that our Western Continent’s Sword Ancestor Talisman reigns supreme!”
A powerful figure from the Western Continent proudly declared.
At this moment, someone chuckled and said, “We heard that Tiānjiān Sect recently discovered a Sword Ancestor Talisman, right?”
The Western figure responded, “Too bad that was a mere prototype compared to ours—especially the Sword Ancestor Talisman atop the Sword Mountain peak; it’s perfected!”
Laughter, sighs, envy, and indignation filled the room. Everyone wanted to bring honor to their own land.
Yet, let’s be honest: although the Heavenly Origin Ancestor Talisman might be limited and a supportive one, it stands alone as the only one in the entire Cultivation Realm.
Creating various cultivation secret realms en masse like this is truly tempting.
This also solidifies Xuantian Sect’s position as the dominant super-temple in the Eastern Continent.
As a dozen Transformation Gods completed the final steps to open the secret realm, the Heavenly Origin Ancestor Talisman stabilized, and the door to the Four Beasts Secret Realm gradually opened.
The door was situated atop a teleportation array, creating a temporal rift, ready for passage.
Even though they hadn’t entered yet, the group could already see four distinct regions within the gap—each with different landscapes—a snowfield covered in ice and snow, a hellish lava field, a desolate thunderous zone, and a vast green sea… Each region was unique and connected to the powers of the four divine beasts.
“This is the Four Beasts Secret Realm?” Mu Jixue murmured nervously yet excitedly.
Qin Wushuang descended beside the group to give some advice before they went in: “I’ve already told you, once inside, the Realm Spirit will randomly send you to different zones. Remember, each zone can only be occupied by one person at a time, so don’t interfere with others’ practices.”
“The Four Beasts Secret Realm is incredibly unique; you can engage in any kind of cultivation there. You can enhance your cultivation level, refine your spirit, or improve your physique.”
“Remember, the secret realm will only remain open for three days. Once the deadline hits, the Realm Spirit will automatically send you back out.”
“Of course, if you feel resistance, exit immediately. Excessive greed could lead to d*ath from the overwhelming spiritual energy inside.”
Qin Wushuang’s reminder stayed deeply imprinted in the four travelers’ minds.
All formalities observed, what they’d gain solely depended on their own fortune.
Before entering, Yun Zhonghe quietly grabbed Mu Jixue’s hand and slipped her something: “Don’t use it yet. Just continue with normal cultivation. When you feel pushed to the limits, take this to break through barriers!”
Yun Zhonghe covertly placed a peach into Mu Jixue’s storage ring.
This peach was none other than the Purple Jade Peach from Xia Linglong’s fruit basket that took thirty years to ripen!
Last night, the astrologer Xing Bu suggested Yun Zhonghe bring this into the Four Beasts Secret Realm and use it at a critical juncture to help Mu Jixue push past her limits.
So with certainty, Yun Zhonghe placed the precious item with her.
