389: Secret Realm

Fei Cai stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, then tossed a Storage Pouch to Zhuge Rizhao.

"Thirty thousand Immortal Stones!"

"This is all my worldly possessions. As long as you slap me, not only will the money you owe me be completely written off, but the thirty thousand Immortal Stones in this Storage Pouch will also be entirely yours!"

Holy crap!

He had never seen such a request.

Zhuge Rizhao grabbed the Storage Pouch, opened it, and inside were dazzling Immortal Stones.

It felt like a dream.

A single slap, and on someone else no less, would allow him to acquire a fortune he couldn't earn in hundreds of years of hard work.

This... "It's too unreal! It's truly too unreal!" Zhuge Rizhao looked intently at Fei Cai, who stood before him, "Why don't you slap me instead! Otherwise, I won't feel at ease taking this money!"

"Hurry up, or I'll find someone else!" Fei Cai was already getting impatient with this guy.

This was clearly a simple transaction, yet he had to make it so complicated.

With that, Fei Cai was about to take it back.

Zhuge Rizhao, however, took a step back, tucked the Storage Pouch into his embrace, and said with a grin, "I'll do it, I'll do it! How can I let someone else do something as good as slapping someone and getting thirty thousand Immortal Stones for free!"

Zhuge Rizhao swung his arm wide and said to Fei Cai, "Are you ready?"

"Come on!" Fei Cai responded.

"Good!" Zhuge Rizhao fiercely threw out a slap.

At this moment, Chu Mo, standing by, had a gleam in his eyes. With the enhancement of the Shen Yan Eye, he saw everything with extreme clarity.

At this moment.

Fei Cai's Luck soared above his head.

Zhuge Rizhao, on the other hand, was met with impending misfortune.

As expected.

The next moment, a bolt of lightning suddenly erupted from the Void Realm, striking down with astonishing power.

Before Zhuge Rizhao could even land his slap, he was enveloped by the lightning.

"Rise!"

Chu Mo formed hand seals, and countless spell swords emerged from the ground, forming a defensive sword array around Zhuge Rizhao.

As for Fei Cai, there was nothing around him.

However, after the lightning struck, the resulting energy storm didn't harm him at all. Instead, it swept him up into the highest heavens, and then, with a force of the storm, into a crack that had been split open in the ground.

At the same time, a mysterious sound from a distant land echoed through the heavens and earth.

The heavens and earth changed color, mountains and rivers trembled, and a literary Dao phenomenon appeared in the Void Realm. Countless forces in the Immortal Realm were startled.

"A literary Dao phenomenon! It's the Wen Sheng Secret Realm appearing!"

"The Wen Sheng Secret Realm! Quick, send all Disciples under our sect to search for the Wen Sheng Secret Realm! Even if they can't inherit the Legacy within the Secret Realm, they must bring back the person who inherits the Legacy!"

"The direction of the Secret Realm is... the Misty Immortal Domain! The Misty Immortal Domain, which is not governed by an Immortal Court, hahahaha! Heaven helps me! The inheritor of the Wen Sheng Legacy shall enter my Shenyan Immortal Court!"

"..."

For a time, countless forces were attracted by the literary Dao phenomenon appearing in the Void Realm, gazing towards the Misty Immortal Domain with fervent eyes.

And at the scene.

Chu Mo, who had saved Zhuge Rizhao, stared blankly at the crack in the ground, lost in thought.

"A Secret Realm?!"

"That's too ridiculous! With one slap, before it even hit the face, a Secret Realm appeared. This... is outrageous, truly quite outrageous!"

Zhuge Rizhao was still in his previous state, somewhat unable to extricate himself, "This... I knew that Fei Cai guy was trying to trick me. Damn it, if Master hadn't acted in time, I almost lost my life..."

His thoughts were a jumble.

His heart was greatly shaken.

Zhuge Rizhao touched the Storage Pouch on his chest for comfort. After all, although he had been startled, he had at least earned something... "Eh? Where's my Storage Pouch? Where are my Immortal Stones?! That shouldn't be! I clearly remember putting it on my chest!"

Zhuge Rizhao frantically patted himself, but the Storage Pouch was nowhere to be seen.

Chu Mo stared at the crack on the ground and said leisurely, "Do you remember the energy storm that swept through? Your Storage Pouch was caught in it. I estimate it's already in Fei Cai's hands now!"

Upon hearing this, Zhuge Rizhao completely shut down.

Unlucky! Too unlucky!

The cooked duck flew away, even when it was already at his mouth, it still flew!

"You don't have to belittle yourself!" Chu Mo patted Zhuge Rizhao's shoulder and told him, "The System on Fei Cai should be able to increase his fortune, and those who wish him ill will be visited by misfortune... And just now, if you had attacked with the intent to kill, the power of that lightning would probably have been even greater!"

Speaking of which, Chu Mo became even more curious about the System on Fei Cai.

What kind of System could cause such Heaven-Defying actions?

It was clearly the most ordinary of matters, yet it managed to create such a grand spectacle.

"This Luck, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it immense!"

Just as Chu Mo was sighing, two figures appeared beside him.

"What did you two just do? How did you even conjure the Wen Sheng Secret Realm! I've been to this small village many times before, why have I never discovered it?"

Fei Wu stared at the Wen Sheng Secret Realm ahead, his eyes filled with fervor, even wanting to enter the Secret Realm to find out its secrets.

Wen Sheng!

That was the Wen Sheng!

The highest pursuit of Confucian Cultivators!

Once such a Secret Realm appeared, it would definitely attract all Confucian Cultivators to rush here first.

Therefore, he had to strike first.

However, just as Fei Wu wanted to enter the Secret Realm, he was stopped by Zhuge Changde.

Fei Wu glared at him, "Why are you stopping me? I want to go in and receive the Legacy. My literary Dao attainment is the highest here, and the Secret Realm is so close to us. This is clearly the will left behind by the Wen Sheng, prepared for me!"

Zhuge Changde stroked his beard and chuckled, "Old Fei, you have to give young people some opportunities, don't you? You, ah, just don't go in and join the fun!"

Fei Wu was very displeased.

"Why should I make way for young people? At one hundred ninety thousand years old, it's precisely the age for adventuring!"

"Old Fei! Listen to me, this is just a Wen Sheng Secret Realm. Even if you enter, what then? Another's Dao is ultimately another's Dao! Your Confucian Dao paired with sword Dao, condensing literary Qi into swords with poetry and prose, may yet allow you to step into the Wen Sheng Realm!"

Zhuge Changde earnestly persuaded him, and also secretly winked at Zhuge Rizhao.

The meaning was clear: quickly go in and receive the Legacy, I'll stall this old man for a while, the Wen Sheng Legacy is first come, first served!

Unfortunately, Fei Wu was no ordinary person.

How could he not know Zhuge Changde's little schemes?

While he said he wanted to go in, in reality, he was also stalling Zhuge Changde.

Here, there were originally three people listening to his lecture.

But now, only two remained.

Where had his son gone?

Clearly, he had already entered the Secret Realm!

"My son's Luck is astonishing, his fortune is immense. He will surely be able to inherit the Wen Sheng Legacy inside and lead our clan back to the Peak!"

Two people, eight hundred tricks up their sleeves.
