Chapter 3826 Yuan Gu Secret Realm

“It’s finally open, but it’s a pity I can’t enter. I wonder what it’s like inside…”,“Is this the entrance to Yuangu Secret Realm? I really want to go in and see…”,At this moment, everyone present immediately became excited, staring eagerly at the entrance in mid-air, but unfortunately they were not qualified to enter.

“Alright, enter one by one according to the order I previously announced. Only one person can enter at a time.”

Wu Huo Daojun gave the order, and the participants of the Hundred Champions Competition began to enter the Yuangu Secret Realm.

Dongfang Daoyuan was the first to fly to the vortex. As soon as his figure entered, he instantly disappeared.

This was a spatial entrance, and there was no telling where one would be teleported after entering.

Everyone entered one after another. Ye Bufan stayed until the end with Situ Dianmo and the others. After all of them had disappeared, he flew towards the vortex.

Entering the entrance felt no different from sitting on a teleportation array. Moments later, his eyes lit up, and a rich Yuangu Qi rushed towards him.

Ye Bufan circulated his Immortal Essence, maintaining full vigilance, and surveyed his surroundings.

The expected danger did not appear; instead, the surroundings were quiet, and all he could see was desolation.

The place he was in was barren, surrounded by desolate mountains, deserts, and valleys, with hardly a trace of green.

With Fairy Chixia's previous instructions, he knew that everyone would not be teleported to the same location, so he did not wait for others and slowly began to explore forward.

There were many spatial rifts here, and touching them could easily tear a person apart. Although his Physical Body was strong now, there was no need to take that risk.

So he gave up flying and slowly proceeded on the ground.

After crossing a small hill, a long, narrow valley appeared before him.

“This… is this perhaps cleaved open?”

Ye Bufan looked at the canyon before him, filled with shock.

The valley was ten miles long, and although the surrounding rocks had been eroded by wind and frost, they were still extremely neat. As an Immortal Lord-level expert, he could tell at a glance that it had been cleaved open by a sword light.

However, to cleave ten miles with one sword, what kind of strength would that require? This was simply too terrifying.

It seemed this was not an ordinary place; there must have been a great battle of ancient powerhouses here before.

As Ye Bufan was speculating about the origin of the canyon, a figure suddenly appeared in his sight.

When he saw that person, the other party obviously also discovered his presence, and his speed suddenly increased, arriving before him in the blink of an eye.

This was a burly young man, whose face was now filled with irrepressible joy.

He had basically met all the Disciples of the Hundred Champions Competition. This was a Disciple from a small Sect named Cao Xuan, with the strength of an Immortal King Late Stage.

This time, besides the Three Sects, Five Factions, and Seven Great Families, some small Sects also managed to reach this stage by luck.

At this moment, Cao Xuan was overjoyed, feeling as if he had been hit by a pie falling from the sky.

From the beginning to the end of the Hundred Champions Competition, he had found this man unlikable, completely consumed by extreme envy, jealousy, and hatred.

Why did he have so many beautiful women? Why did he, without any real ability, manage to reach the end just by luck?

And even ultimately claim the top position, winning a reward of 300 million celestial crystals.

After the competition ended, Cao Xuan secretly swore that if he encountered the other party in the Yuangu Secret Realm, he would definitely make him suffer.

Moreover, he later received private news that the Zhao Family was actually offering a reward of 100 million middle-grade celestial crystals for the other party's head.

Precisely because of this, he looked at Ye Bufan's head, then at the Storage Ring in his hand, and couldn't help but laugh up to the sky.

He knew exactly what was inside that ring: the 300 million middle-grade celestial crystal reward for the top position, plus another 300 million from Aoyue Fairy and Jin Mei'er, totaling a full 600 million.

If he also included the Zhao Family's 100 million reward, he would instantly get 700 million middle-grade celestial crystals.

Even if he returned empty-handed from this Yuangu Secret Realm, it would still be a huge profit, enough for his Cultivation resources for the rest of his life.

“Hahaha, it seems my luck has turned! Heaven has given this immense fortune to me!”

Seeing this guy laughing so happily, Ye Bufan basically guessed what was going on. He found it quite interesting and decided to play along, retreating repeatedly and showing a nervous expression.

After Cao Xuan had laughed enough, he said, “Kid, didn’t expect to run into Young Master here, did you?”

Ye Bufan retreated repeatedly, nervously saying, “You, what do you want to do?”

“Pretty boy, there’s no soft rice to eat now, is there? Those women of yours are indeed formidable, but unfortunately, not one of them is here now.”

At this point, a hint of hatred flashed in Cao Xuan's eyes, “You useless person, a pretty boy who relies on his looks, how could you have taken the top position in the Hundred Champions Competition?

How could you have gotten so many celestial crystals? How could you have so many beautiful and capable women?

Tell me, how did you do it?”

The more this guy spoke, the angrier he got, the more jealous he became, and finally, he roared in fury.

Ye Bufan's face was full of tension: “What exactly do you want to do? If you dare to lay a finger on me, my women will not let you off.”

“Bah! Useless thing, don’t you see where this is? No one can help you!”

Cao Xuan took a deep breath, calmed the anger in his heart, and extended his right hand: “Give me your Storage Ring, and Young Master can spare your life.”

“This… this won’t do.”

Ye Bufan clutched the ring on his hand and retreated repeatedly.

“Kid, don’t refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit. This is Yuangu Secret Realm. No one will know even if I kill you.

Hand it over quickly, or I’ll cut off your head right now.”

As Cao Xuan spoke, he flipped his wrist, and a wide, long saber appeared in his palm, exuding Killing Intent all over his body.

“I’ll give it to you, but you can’t hurt me.”

Ye Bufan seemed genuinely scared and quickly handed over the ring.

Cao Xuan grabbed the ring from a distance, and it landed in his palm. His Divine Sense scanned it, and it was full of celestial crystals, piled up like mountains.

The reason he didn't directly kill him was that he was worried the other party would hide the celestial crystals. Now it seemed this pretty boy was as timid as a mouse and didn't even have the courage to hide them.

“Hahaha, I’m rich! I’m really rich!”

This guy laughed madly, completely unaware of the mockery in Ye Bufan’s eyes.

“What are you laughing at?”

Just as he was laughing joyfully, a faint voice suddenly sounded in his ear.

Cao Xuan jumped in surprise, turned his head, and another figure appeared behind him.

The newcomer was a tall, thin young man, Han Lingwei, a Core Disciple of the Han Family, with Immortal King Peak strength.

Originally, he was not qualified to enter the Yuangu Secret Realm, but the successive disappearances of Han Lingkuang and Han Lingduan from the Han Family gave him this opportunity.

“Young Master Han… how… how did you get here?”

Upon seeing Han Lingwei, Cao Xuan was filled with shock and regret. He wished he had known this earlier; he should have immediately escaped after getting the ring.

Now, with the other party stronger and of higher status than him, it would likely be difficult to keep it all to himself.

“Is it your place to question whether Young Master comes or not?”

Han Lingwei snorted coldly. He was a Han Family member and didn't care about these Disciples from small Sects at all. He didn't pay much attention to Cao Xuan and looked at Ye Bufan: “Kid, hand over your Storage Ring, and Young Master can spare your life.”
