--- Chapter 235 ---

A week later.

Yu Long stared at the meditating Chu Yuechan on the Primordial Profound Ark's deck and sighed because the aloof maid didn't seem to be exiting her epiphany states soon.

However, this is not bad.

From Chu Yuechan's dim aura, Yu Long could sense the martial intent she grasped was rare and firm. The excellent sharpness and spatial closeness exceed that of ordinary Sword Intent.

Without a doubt, Chu Yuechan will become an expert when she exits her epiphany state.

Until that day, Yu Long would protect her.

"When will she wake up, Master?" Asked Chu Yueli, who was snacking on pickled radish. She has been eating food that Yona prepared for some reason.

Recently, Yona learned how to cook, and Chu Yueli walked forward to test whether they were edible for Yu Long or poisonous. Of course, they are just ploys, as Chu Yueli would never let Yona's cooking pass.

Chu Yueli found Yona's cooking edible, but are they delicious?

No, they taste absolutely horrible.

She would never let Yu Long taste horrible food.

In the beginning, Yu Long tasted Yona's food once.

He got his tongue taste buds burned for a whole day.

That's an achievement no one has ever done.

Yu Long smiled wryly at Chu Yueli, "I don't know. At this rate, it could be weeks, months, and even years."

"This is one of the wonders about Cultivation World."

"Thankfully, Chu Yuechan's body doesn't need sustenance as long as there is Profound Energy in the atmosphere."

"By the way, how were Xiao Lingxi and Yona? You're in charge of teaching them how to cultivate, no?"

Chu Yueli wiped her mouth and hands clean with a blue handkerchief and replied, "They are horrible..."

"I don't know how, but they are inadequate at absorbing knowledge."

"I explained everything in the most basic form that even kids could understand, but they couldn't understand the simplest breathing sequence."

"But well... We did make some progress."

"Xiao Lingxi has reached the 1st Stage of True Profound Realm."

"As for Yona, she has reached the 5th Stage of True Profound Realm."

"Maybe I'm just a bad teacher." She added self-condescendingly.

Yu Long chuckled, "That's not true. You taught some people, and they just came out good."

"He told me it was to get great luck, but I doubt it."

"Great luck..." Chu Yueli's mouth twitched.

Tempest gave Chu Yueli a scary look, "Dead Star Lake and Star River are dangerous places. And that Old Turtle is overcautious as fuck."

"You wouldn't see him coming out of his damn shell without defensive treasures."

"Well, he's a turtle." Yu Long couldn't help but comment.

The Heavenly King of the North was busy preparing stuff in his territory and suddenly sneezed. The turtle cursed because someone was talking behind his back.

Tempest huffed and continued, "The Secret Realm's opening will open in twelve hours. The Heavenly Kings have moved, except for me, Old Turtle, and that monster Greed."

"Greed..." Yu Long frowned slightly.

The Heavenly King of Greed is the first-ranked in the Heavenly King Ranking.

Tempest and Old Turtle didn't know where he was coming from.

Not only that, but they also don't know what species he was.

All they knew about the most mysterious Heavenly King was that his body consisted of scale-like obsidian armor and a red misty aura. Sometimes, they saw claws, wings, and an extra pair of eyes, but that's it.

Heavenly King of Greed is 'immensely' strong. He could solo the rest of Heavenly Kings alone, which left them confused about why he didn't take over the Illusory Demon Realm for himself.

"Where is the Secret Realm's opening?" Yu Long was curious. Although he has devoured the Heavenly King of Burning Venom's memory, some old memories weren't 'actually' in it.

Yes, including the secret realm's location.

Tempest pointed at the east, "There."

Yu Long and Chu Yueli stared at the area but found nothing there. There are only mountains, forests, and obviously the faint blue sea.

"Where?" Chu Yueli tilted her head in confusion.

Tempest laughed, "You can't see with naked eyes, but that entire area will become a completely different world in twelve hours. The mountain will become volcanic, the forests will become barren lands, and the ocean..."

"Well, it is the Dead Star Lake."

"No way..." Chu Yueli was shocked. She has seen and read many bizarre events, but this is her first time learning such an event could happen.

Yu Long stared at the empty distance, "A domain."

"But to cover all those areas, the domain must be energy consuming."

"This only happens twice a year according to Burning Venom's memory. That's once every six months. A normal secret realm would have a longer cooldown period, yet this one opens frequently."

"For example, Heaven Basin Secret Realm."

"This secret realm cannot be this cheap. Not, it was too inviting as if asking people to find it."

"This..." Yu Long stared at the bright sun in the clear blue sky.

"It's not you, right?"
