Chapter 446: The Secrets of the Secret Realm

“The core of this secret realm lies in this giant tower,” Mo Jing said. Ye Feng wasn’t surprised at all—he had long guessed there was something wrong with this tower.
He waited silently for Mo Jing to continue.
Seeing his calm expression, a hint of boredom appeared on Mo Jing’s face, and he added, “In fact, this tower isn’t just nine layers as it appears; it has ten!”
“Ten layers?” Ye Feng finally reacted upon hearing this. He looked at Mo Jing with confusion.
“You’ve seen this tower from outside too, right? It has nine layers in total,” Mo Jing countered.
“Mm,” Ye Feng nodded.
“Actually, you’ve overlooked the tower’s spire. That too is an independent layer,” Mo Jing said, reminding Ye Feng of the tall black spire atop the nine-layered tower.
“Is that spire also an independent layer?” Ye Feng pressed further. “Are there any secrets inside?”
“That’s where the key to inheriting the secrets of this realm lies,” Mo Jing said, pausing briefly. “On this tenth layer, anyone who goes up and fails to obtain the realm’s inheritance will perish.”
Ye Feng was shocked. If what Mo Jing said was true, this information was invaluable. If he entered rashly now and failed to get the inheritance, it would be a huge problem. “What are the requirements to reach the tenth layer?”
“The gravity on the tenth layer is twice that of the ninth layer—1,024,000 times that of the Fiend Realm. With such intense gravity, the person being tested must have at least the strength of a Supreme God; otherwise, they won’t even be able to stand steady.” Ye Feng had thought of this as soon as he learned about the existence of the tenth layer.
“It can’t be that simple, right?” Ye Feng felt it couldn’t be that easy.
“Of course not. Otherwise, those who came down from the God Realm would have already obtained it. As far as I know, even beings at the level of Ancestral Gods have tried and failed,” Mo Jing said with a smile.
“Even Ancestral Gods fail?” A shadow covered Ye Feng’s heart.
“I haven’t been able to reach the tenth layer, but after spending so many years in the Fiend Realm, I’m quite familiar with this Wan Yao Ling. Although the information left by those who perished is limited, I’ve still managed to extract two useful pieces of information.”
“The first is what I just said—no one who’s gone up has returned alive. The second is that, in my estimation, the challenges faced by each person on the tenth layer vary, likely depending on their cultivation level.”

“Why do you say that?” Ye Feng wanted to know if there was any basis for such a speculation.
“Because every time someone enters the top of the tower, it starts rotating automatically, causing the nine lower layers to vibrate as well. When someone inside the top falls, the tower stops rotating and the vibrations cease. In fact, no matter how strong the person is, the duration of the tower’s rotation doesn’t differ much. That god-tier warrior only lasted about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea—not much better than others who entered, and even worse than some early-stage supreme god-level beings from the heavens. So the difficulty inside must vary from person to person.” Mo Jing’s analysis made some sense.
“There are such things?” Ye Feng fell into deep thought, wondering under what circumstances such results might occur, but he couldn’t think of much.
“Though, telling you this is useless. Your energy strength is much greater than mine, but I can still sense that you’re at the peak of a heavenly god level. To reach the tenth layer, you’ll probably need to break through to the supreme god level first.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll definitely break through to the supreme god level before you,” Ye Feng said bluntly.
Mo Jing didn’t say much in response. Ye Feng had already dared to fight him when he was at the half-god level and had grown to this extent in just a few years. There was no need to compare his cultivation speed and strength with Mo Jing’s.
“Why are you with Xiao Yu and Xiao Bei?” Although Ye Feng asked this, he actually wanted to get more information from Mo Jing. At least, he still wasn’t sure what kind of beasts Xiao Yu and Xiao Bei were or what level they could evolve to.
“They are talents of our demon race. As the current leader of the demon race, it’s only right for me to take care of the younger generation, right?” Mo Jing replied honestly, though he felt annoyed by Ye Feng’s question.
“When we first ascended to the heavens, it caused some anomalies. Someone informed the Ancestor of Demons, so he came to meet us himself,” Bernard explained.
“We brought Lilith and the others to the demon realm as well,” Xiao Yu added.
“Have Fat and the others arrived?” Hearing this, Ye Feng couldn’t help but feel excited. These people were trustworthy.
“Yeah, all friends above the immortal level are here,” Xiao Yu nodded.
“Great!”

“Because we ascended to the Fiend Realm, while Fata’s enemies are in the Immortal Realm, our original plan was to have them go to the Fiend Realm first to hide for a while. But after arriving there, the Fiend Ancestor gave us great help by sending a true god-level elder to the Immortal Realm to kill Fata’s enemies,” Bernard said with a smile. “At first, we also thought about finding you, boss, but we had already heard of your reputation in the Fiend Realm, so we simply followed the Fiend Ancestor to train, fearing we might hold you back. By the time we came up, the Fiend Ancestor had already fought you once and thought you were dead. We knew you were still alive through our contract connection.”
“Am I that easy to kill?” Ye Feng laughed and tapped Bernard’s head.
“You can be stupid!” Bernard said with a bitter expression.
“It doesn’t matter, as long as one of you is smart!” Ye Feng grinned mischievously. “To be honest, I really didn’t expect to meet you here. I thought I might encounter Mo Jing, but you two are truly unexpected.”
“Boss, what are your plans? Do you want to challenge the peak of the tower?” Xiao Bei frowned slightly. After hearing Mo Jing’s words, he knew the tenth layer was full of dangers.
“Hmm, since we’re here, we definitely can’t leave empty-handed,” Ye Feng nodded.
“Are you confident?” Xiao Yu asked from the side.
“No, because I still don’t know what’s inside,” Ye Feng shook his head helplessly. “But I won’t perish. You can rest assured about that.”
“But boss, your cultivation level isn’t even at the level of a Supreme God yet. It might not be wise to rush in like this,” Xiao Bei reminded him.
“I know. That’s why I plan to go up one more layer and then enter a short period of seclusion to reach the Supreme God level before heading to the peak of the tower,” Ye Feng explained his original plan.
“A short period of seclusion?” Mo Jing didn’t quite believe Ye Feng’s words, as making a big leap in cultivation level was usually very difficult. From the peak of a Heavenly God to the level of a Supreme God, some people might get stuck there for life. Mo Jing didn’t think Ye Feng could make such a breakthrough in just a few days.
Ye Feng didn’t say much about it. The fact that he had a refining domain that allowed him to accelerate time by a thousand times was something better kept secret. If those with ulterior motives found out, it could bring him a lot of trouble. The Heavenly Realm was one thing, but he was worried about the news reaching the Divine Realm.
“I’m going up first. With you watching over Xiao Yu and Xiao Bei, I can rest easy,” Ye Feng said some kind words before leaving.

Although the ink whale knew it was just polite talk, it still felt delighted. This time, not only had it gotten rid of the formidable enemy Ye Feng, but with Xiao Yu and Xiao Bei around, he probably wouldn’t cause trouble for the demon race. Moreover, with the relationship between Xiao Yu and Xiao Bei, it could be considered to be on the same side as Ye Feng. Thinking of this, a heavy burden in its heart finally lifted.
