The vast and boundless Eternal Secret Realm has the Chaos World in the north, the Tower of Eternity in the south, the largest mountain range, Infinite Mountain, in the eastern part, while its western end is also boundlessly merged with the Endless Sea.
The middle of these four extremes is known as the Eternal Continent, which is as vast as the Four Extremes and is home to intelligent creatures and many other races.
Years ago, ten Great Eternity Clans: the Pan Clan, Hun Clan, Ming Clan, Immortal Clan, Shen Clan, Yu Clan, Dao Clan, Star Clan, Demon Clan and Beast God, jointly discovered this Eternal Secret Realm.
At first, the Ten Great Eternity Clans explored the Eternal Secret Realm alone. When they found that the efficiency of their exploration was not high and that the lifespan of the Eternal Secret Realm was limited, they came up with other plans.
That is, to increase their manpower. So, in due course, the Eternity Clan expanded to thirty members.
The speed at which they obtained resources in the Eternal Secret Realm greatly increased, enabling the ancestors of the Ten Great Eternity Clans to receive the Light of Eternity and take that crucial half-step.
However, taking the remaining half-step was extremely difficult.
As a result, the Ancient Clan and One Hundred Races joined in the exploration. In their eyes, these were seen as just cannon fodder without the right or qualifications to refuse.
At this moment, figures of a group roved into a valley near the East Infinite Mountain on the Eternal Continent.
If Sovereign Ling of the Ling Clan were present at the scene, he would realise that an even more noble aura was exuding from these individuals. Also, they were all handsome men and beautiful women without a single ugly one.
This was led by the head of the Ancient Clan and ranked thirty-first on the Ten Thousand Clans List – the Heavenly Clan.
The leader was Que Xie, the strongest of this generation in the Heavenly Clan. He had reached the limit in the Life and Death Realm and was able to break through to the Reincarnation Realm at any time.
If it was not for this Eternal Secret Realm exploration, he would have broken through earlier.
“Que Xie, is there really the Light of Eternity here?”
“If there is, then our ancestor could take that crucial half-step. By then, even if the Third-Eye Clan tries to target us, the Heavenly Clan, we will no longer be afraid.”
A handsome young man said, his eyes decorated with a five-color mysterious pattern.
“I only have the feeling that it might be in this direction, but we can only know if it really exists after we have explored it.”
“And don’t forget, the Light of Eternity is regarded as the most treasured jewel by the Eternity Clan inside the Eternal Secret Realm. They will never let others have it.”
“The Third-Eye Clan, in particular, will never allow our Heavenly Clan to rise. So once they get to know about it, we must ensure that we kill the one who discovers it first and immediately leave the Eternal Secret Realm, taking the Light of Eternity to our ancestor.”
Que Xie’s words made the Heavenly Clan solemnly nod their heads in agreement.
Their countless years of experience as cannon fodder in the exploration made them aware of what the Eternity Clan was looking for.
However, this Light of Eternity, even on the Eternal Continent, is an extremely precious and rare existence that ordinary creatures cannot possess.
Only those extremely powerful creatures are likely to carry it inside their bodies.
What they didn’t know was that the Four Extremes, high above, have very little contact with the creatures on the Eternal Continent. So, don’t you think they wouldn’t want to acquire the Light of Eternity on the Eternal Continent?
In fact, they didn’t want to because the Light of Eternity on the Eternal Continent was of poor quality, and the quantity was also average.
Although these four forces could ignore the rules of the Eternal Secret Realm, there were still some inexplicable entities suppressing them.
So even though the creatures of the Eternal Continent appeared as ants in their eyes, they could not act against them freely, except for those ferocious beasts of the Chaos World that were specifically defined as “cleaners”.
Take for instance, the fifty Supreme Realm Experts from the evil camp previously killed by Ye Feng and the Six Royal Beasts, the quantity of Light of Eternity they obtained in total was still less than that of Wu Yan’s replica, and its quality was very poor, not enough to sprout the Eternal Seed.
However, none of this was known to either the Eternity Clan or the Ancient Clan and One Hundred Races. Over the course of countless years, the Eternity Clan had also obtained a significant amount of Light of Eternity from the Eternal Continent.
It was only the ancestors of the Ten Great Eternity Clans whose Eternal Seeds bloomed. Other Eternity Clan elders, like those of the Third-Eye Clan who ranked at the very end, hadn’t even formed an Eternal Seed. They were getting close though.
“Bloody hell, how did this group of people end up in the valley?”
“I hope they leave quickly. If we’re exposed, I’m afraid we’re in big trouble!”
The deep valley was upended when a divine sense materialized, and a mysterious fluctuation rippled. Immediately afterwards, see-through ripples swept through the space, instantly revealing a corner of the world.
“Hmm? Found it!”
Que Xie’s expression flickered, and he dashed toward the depth of the valley.
“Damn, they found us!”
“Screw you!!!”
Another divine sense swore, and immediately sounded an alarm.
In a flash, the corner of the world hidden behind the space was about to move away.
“Humph! You stay there.”
Que Xie’s figure appeared instantaneously, with his palm emitting infinite golden light as he fiercely blasted it downwards.
“Boom~”
The space in the valley shook violently as it cracked inch by inch, and a corner of another world officially appeared in the eyes of the Heavenly Clan.
“Found you!”
A glint flashed in Que Xie’s eyes. Although he had never seen the Light of Eternity, the Heavenly Clan’s years of cannon fodder work wasn’t in vain. The ancestors of the Heavenly Clan had long studied the method of exploring for the Light of Eternity and passed it on to them.
In the center of this world, an elder whose body was emitting a faint golden light, turned and fled the moment Que Xie appeared.
“Trying to run, stay here for me!”
Que Xie immediately attacked. An ordinary blow contained a miraculous power that crossed the sky and enveloped the old man.
“Break free!”
Facing the sudden attack, the old man’s face changed dramatically. His body exploded with energy like a volcanic eruption, and his aura skyrocketed as he boldly collided with Que Xie’s attack.
“Bang!”
Que Xie’s attack disintegrated his opponent’s attack and directly impaled the old man’s body.
“Thud!”
A dull sound echoed in the air as the elder turned into a ray of light and pierced through the Infinite Mountain.
“Whoosh!”
Que Xie’s figure appeared behind the elder. Watching the glow from the elder’s body, Que Xie quickly cut off the elder’s head and captured it. Then, a jade-coloured small bottle appeared in his palm. He sucked at the elder’s body, and the trace of Light of Eternity inside was absorbed directly into the bottle.
“Leave, now!”
Que Xie sent a voice message, and his figure disappeared immediately.
He knew that the Eternity Clan had methods of sensing the aura of the Light of Eternity, but they had to be closer to the vessel containing the Light.
So, he left the original location immediately after acquiring the Light of Eternity.
After a moment, a middle-aged figure slowly appeared. He sensed the fluctuations in the void and his face slightly changed.
