Open secret realm protection

"Yes!" the Huayu Sect Disciple replied, cupping his hands. Although he truly did not want the Sect Master to take such a risk, he knew there was absolutely no other way now.

At the same time, he secretly blamed himself, feeling that he and the others were still too weak and simply could not help the Sect Master with anything.

After Qin Ming finished giving instructions, with a single thought, he appeared outside the Secret Realm. Sweeping his Divine Sense across the area, he immediately located his father and flew over in a hurry.

"Father."

Seeing the flustered look on Qin Ming's face, Qin Yuan, who was busy directing the Clan Members, straightened his expression and asked, "Qin Ming, you're here. Is something the matter?"

"This time, I may be facing the greatest danger in history. All of you must enter the Secret Realm. Furthermore, activate the Secret Realm's defensive measures. Before I return, do not let anyone enter," Qin Ming said solemnly.

The Secret Realm could activate defenses. When these defenses were active, even a Martial Venerable would find it nearly impossible to break in.

However, once the Secret Realm's defenses were activated, one could only enter, not leave.

Moreover, whether activating or deactivating the defenses, a large amount of Spirit Stone was required.

Although the Secret Realm yielded impressive outputs and was of great help in improving a Martial Artist's strength, the consumption of Spirit Stone was also enormous.

Apart from the need for massive amounts of Spirit Stone and spirit-dissolving liquid to expand the Secret Realm, Spirit Stone was also required at other times to maintain the operation of the Secret Realm.

Those Major Powers spent the majority of their Spirit Stone within their Secret Realms.

Of course, this was also because they had many Martial Artists, and maintaining the Secret Realm usually required consuming even more Spirit Stone.

"Is it that serious?" Qin Yuan's expression changed. He had never seen such a serious look on Qin Ming's face before.

The Family had experienced so many dangers, and he had always been full of confidence; this was the first time he had seen panic on his face.

"Alright, I understand. You must be careful too." Qin Yuan nodded heavily, walked over, patted Qin Ming on the shoulder, and said, "If it really becomes too dangerous, you can return to the Secret Realm. You are still so young; you could even outlast the enemy."

"Mm." Qin Ming nodded heavily. "Rest assured, Father, I will protect myself well. If the situation becomes impossible, I will definitely return to the Secret Realm immediately and will not come out until I achieve a Breakthrough to Martial Saint."

After speaking, under his father's worried gaze, Qin Ming soared into the sky and flew toward the designated location.

He was doing this just in case. In reality, the location of the Secret Realm was extremely hidden, and there were usually specialized Qin Family Disciple members patrolling to prevent exposure.

Up until now, this Secret Realm remained hidden and safe.

As for what his father said about hiding in the Secret Realm and outlasting the enemy if things got tough, that was clearly impossible.

The operation of the Secret Realm required the consumption of a large amount of Spirit Stone. Although he had stockpiled some Spirit Stone, while it was a significant amount, it could not support the infinite consumption of the Secret Realm.

"If only I had a massive amount of Top-Grade Spirit Stone and spirit-dissolving liquid, the Secret Realm could be completely self-sufficient."

Qin Ming shook his head and pulled back his thoughts.

Upon approaching the target location, his speed suddenly slowed down, and he landed directly on the ground, flying at a low altitude.

Moreover, every time he flew for a while, he would use his Heavenly Eye to scout the area.

He had long discovered that compared to using the Heavenly Eye, the Divine Sense had its own respective advantages.

The Divine Sense could detect hidden auras and was extremely fast. As for the Heavenly Eye, it could scout through obstacles. Although scouting through obstacles would shorten the range, compared to its immense utility, it was already extremely convenient.

"If only I could upgrade this Innate Divine Ability. Then, with one glance, I could see everything clearly from ten thousand miles away."

Of course, this was just Qin Ming's fantasy. He did not know what level this Innate Divine Ability would reach in the future, nor did he even know how this Innate Divine Ability should be upgraded.
