Chapter 760: The Secret Signal

Before long, as Wu Li's face turned somewhat pale, the surrounding flow of time slowly returned to normal.

Although it was only a brief instant within the vast Forbidden Realm, for Wu Yifan and the others, nearly a hundred thousand years had passed.

"Alright, your cultivation shouldn't be raised too much at once; otherwise, your bodies won't be able to handle it, and you'll be consumed and suffer a backlash from the Forbidden Power."

Wu Li exhorted them with a serious expression. After all, they were not Forbidden Creatures themselves. The primary power they cultivated in their bodies was different from Forbidden Power. If they rushed things and raised their Forbidden Power too quickly, there was a risk of the Forbidden Power taking a dominant position in their bodies, allowing the guest to usurp the host.

Wu Yifan and the others naturally understood this point as well, and they nodded in agreement with serious expressions.

In that brief instant, their cultivation had significantly improved with Wu Li's help. Wu Yifan broke through to Level Sixteen Perfection, directly crossing an entire major Realm. As for Wu Yidao, he broke through from the Early Stage of Level Twelve to Level Fourteen Perfection in one go.

Next was Wu Zhene, who broke through from level eleven Perfection to the Early Stage of Level Fourteen. Finally, Wu Xianni and Wu Mowu both broke through from Level Ten Perfection to the Early Stage of Level Thirteen.

Just then, Li Tianxie and Wu Daotian arrived late.

"I'm not late, am I?"

Upon arrival, Wu Daotian greeted everyone, acting like a complete social butterfly.

On the other hand, Li Tianxie's expression was extremely cold. After all, that was his natural disposition. If it weren't to avenge his sister, he wouldn't have come to take risks in the Forbidden Realm.

"No, you've arrived just in time."

Wu Li shook his head. Then, before Li Tianxie and Wu Daotian could react, he appeared before them and pointed a finger.

In an instant, Li Tianxie and Wu Daotian's cultivation began to skyrocket at a visible rate. Before long, Li Tianxie soared from Level Twelve Perfection all the way to Level Fourteen Perfection, while Wu Daotian broke through from level eleven Perfection to Level Thirteen Perfection.

Both were shocked by Wu Li's method and couldn't help but stare at him with wide eyes.

However, Wu Li simply spread his hands and said, "This is my limit. Don't ask me how I did it."

Seeing that Wu Li had no intention of explaining, Li Tianxie and Wu Daotian could only drop the idea of questioning him further.

A second later, Li Tianxie looked at Wu Yidao and asked seriously, "Speak, what is the reason for having us come here?"

As Li Tianxie spoke, everyone present couldn't help but look at Wu Yidao, wanting to know exactly what important matter he had summoned them for. After all, they more or less understood Wu Yidao's personality and knew he wasn't the type to gather them together for no reason.

Hearing Li Tianxie's words, the playful expression on Wu Yidao's face instantly vanished, replaced by complete solemnity. Only after a good while did he finally speak: "Indeed, I've asked you all to come here because I have an important matter to discuss with you."

In the next moment, Wu Yidao recounted everything he had previously encountered within the Void Forbidden Realm.

"So, you're saying that everything we have now is part of Great-Grandfather's arrangement?"

Wu Yifan's brow twitched slightly as he asked.

Wu Yidao said with a solemn expression, "Correct. Moreover, long before us, Great-Grandfather had already arranged for many undercover experts from our Divine Realm to be in the Forbidden Realm. The Void God Emperor is one of them. Besides the Void God Emperor, there are many other experts undercover in the Forbidden Realm, but we don't know their identities."

"So, I want to ask everyone, which experts in the Forbidden Realm do you think might be from our Divine Realm?"

Upon hearing Wu Yidao's words, everyone present fell into deep thought and began to analyze carefully. However, after a while, they all shook their heads. After all, they had been focused on their cultivation, and since they hadn't known about this before, they naturally hadn't paid any attention to it.

Seeing this, Wu Yidao couldn't help but sigh before speaking: "You didn't know before, but you must start paying attention now. According to what the Void God Emperor said, they came to the Forbidden Realm to hide and develop as far back as the Ancient Era. Since the Ancient Era was so long ago, their Realms are likely not low."

"If you encounter one of our own, remember not to attack."

At this time, Wu Daotian thought of something and asked with some confusion, "So, how do we know if they are one of our own?"

It must be said that Wu Daotian's question hit the nail on the head. Wu Yidao looked like he was thinking hard, but he couldn't come up with a reasonable method either.

But just then, Wu Li spoke up: "I have a good idea."

Hearing Wu Li's words, everyone looked at him in unison.

Wu Li spoke with a serious expression, "Since they were all originally dispatched by Great-Grandfather—the former Myriad Paths Heavenly Emperor—to hide and develop within the Forbidden Realm, they must have a secret signal to recognize each other. So, why not go and ask the Void God Emperor?"

The moment Wu Li finished speaking, everyone couldn't help but look at Wu Yidao again.

Seeing this, Wu Yidao spoke somewhat sheepishly, "Well, I was in a hurry at the time and forgot to ask. But don't worry, the Void Forbidden Realm will open again in a hundred years. At that time, I'll see if I can find a way to sneak in and ask the Void God Emperor."

"Very well, we can only do it this way for now."

Wu Yifan sighed and could only nod in agreement.

"Alright, if there's nothing else, let's leave it at that and go our separate ways for now. After all, staying together for too long might cause unnecessary trouble."

Li Tianxie spoke up, and the others, knowing he was looking out for them, nodded and agreed.

Before leaving, Wu Yifan stopped Wu Yidao and said seriously, "If you get the secret signal from the Void God Emperor, just use the Heavenly Emperor Bell to inform us. There's no need for us to come out again."

Wu Yifan knew he was in a dangerous position now, and danger might be approaching him. So if possible, he didn't want to come out and risk meeting with Wu Yidao and the others.

Hearing this, Wu Yidao nodded heavily in agreement before turning to leave, and Wu Yifan did the same.

However, not long after leaving, Wu Yifan's expression suddenly changed, and he couldn't help but stop. Before him appeared the figures of the Sect Leader of Beast Taming Sect, the Master of Tianyin Mountain, and the Sect Leader of Extreme Town Sect.
