The shuttle of time passed through the vast star field and stopped in a land of nothingness.
Zhang Xiaozu and Yan Suxin came out of the time shuttle and flew forward about a hundred miles behind the ancestor of the Yan family, arriving in front of a violently fluctuating void of time and space.
"This is the entrance to the Cangwai Secret Realm."
Yan Wuque pointed to the violently fluctuating void time and space and said to Zhang Xiaozu, "If you don't have the key and rush in randomly, you will be dragged into a time and space tunnel that leads to nowhere by the unstable void time and space here, or you will be on the spot at worst.
It was crushed into pieces by the void of time and space, and its soul was destroyed."
Zhang Xiaozu nodded, Yan Suxin had already told him this information.
In addition to the Yan family, there are eight major overlord forces in the Taichu Realm. They have actually found out the location of the entrance to the Cangwai Secret Realm, but they don't have the key, so they have been unable to enter.
Zhang Xiaozu used his spiritual consciousness to test the unstable time and space in front of him. After a moment, his expression suddenly became strange, and he communicated with the ancient tree spirit in his heart: "Tree spirit, can you feel it, is this an exit from the spirit fruit world area?"
"It seems so." The ancient tree spirit responded.
Zhang Xiaozu was shocked and said: "That is to say, this secret realm of Cangwai is hidden in the real world outside the spiritual fruit world."
The Spirit Fruit World area he mentioned refers to the area where all Spirit Fruit Worlds are located from the top level to the bottom level.
If you don't go through rhizome passages and world gates, going from one spiritual fruit world to another requires passing through an extremely vast void, and going from the lower plane to the upper plane requires passing through a plane barrier.
But whether you are going from one spiritual fruit world to another, or from the lower plane to the upper plane, or taking the rhizome passage and the world gate, you are all moving within the area of the spiritual fruit world, without jumping out.
There is a larger barrier at the outermost edge of this area, wrapping the roots of the World Tree and all the spiritual fruit worlds.
If you can pass through this barrier, you will go to the real world outside the World Tree.
Zhang Xiaozu's World Tree grows in his Dantian space, so it is quite special, with two layers of barrier barriers.
The first layer is a normal barrier.
For example, the current location of Zhou Jianlai and others is supposed to be outside the World Tree and already in the real world, but in fact it is not. It is just Zhang Xiaozu's Dantian space.
Only by passing through the second barrier, which is Zhang Xiaozu's Dantian, can we truly enter the real world.
There is a World Tree in Zhang Xiaozu's body, so he has a clear understanding of the barriers in the underground world of the World Tree, and he can recognize at a glance that the unstable void of time and space in front of him is actually the exit through the barrier.
"Follow me closely, otherwise you will be strangled to death by the void of time and space. Don't blame me for not warning you."
Grand Ancestor Yan Tiexin took out a three-foot-long brown scepter from the void space, looked at Zhang Xiaopou and solemnly warned him.
It doesn't matter whether others follow closely or not, Zhang Xiaopeng must follow closely.
Zhang Xiaozu looked at the simple and ancient brown scepter in Yan Tiexin's hand, touched his nose in astonishment, and couldn't help but laugh in his heart: "I thought the key was such a mysterious thing, but it turned out to be a piece of the World Tree.
Tree roots."
At this moment, a large group of people suddenly emerged from the void behind. The leader was a bald monk in a floral robe. He waved his hand and shouted: "Yan Tiexin, don't be busy, wait for me."
Yan Tiexin's expression suddenly changed, and he immediately rolled up his sleeves and jumped into the unstable void with everyone in the Yan family.
"Follow up quickly!"
"rush!"
The large group of people rushed forward in the blink of an eye, without pausing for a moment, and followed the Yan family members into the unstable void.
In the void, time and space are extremely chaotic.
But the scepter in Yan Tiexin's hand burst out with brown light, opening up a relatively stable passage in the chaotic time and space, leading everyone forward.
As their front legs passed by, the passage's back legs were distorted by the chaos of time and space.
But three to four hundred feet behind, the flower-robed monk and his entourage took advantage of the last moment when the passage was completely twisted and confused to catch up.
"Haha, Yan Tiexin, I'm following you!"
The flower-robed monk grinned widely.
This flower-robed monk, whose name is Qingju, is one of the five great ancestors of the ancient Buddhist sect.
There were more than a dozen people running alongside him, all of whom were the supreme ancestors of the five major forces.
"ah--"
Screams suddenly sounded from behind.
It was the person who didn't follow behind who had his body and soul crushed into pieces by the chaos of time and space.
The supreme ancestors of the five major forces did not dare to turn around and rescue him, because if they paused for a moment, they themselves would fall into chaos in time and space.
"Damn it, why did they show up here? Did they expect that we would come to the secret realm of Cangwai, or did they place spies inside our Yan family and have insight into our every move?"
The ancestor of the Yan family looked terrifyingly gloomy.
"Ancestor, I am willing to explode my soul to stop them."
A man from the Yan family said with a determined expression, ready to sacrifice himself to block the pursuit of the five major forces.
"No!"
Yan Zhengyang hurriedly stopped him, "The time and space here are extremely unstable and cannot withstand the impact of any force. The self-destruction of the soul is likely to cause the collapse of time and space, and we ourselves will be doomed."
Yan Xingtian said: "It's not too late to enter the secret realm and stop them. We have been digging the secret realm for hundreds of years and have long been on guard against them doing this kind of tricks."
While he was speaking, everyone's eyes flickered, and then a deserted red land without any life broke into their field of vision.
Yan Tiexin kept walking, leading everyone to fly forward through the air, and said: "There are pursuers in the rear, activate the formation."
A large array quietly activated on the ground below.
"Haha, is this the Cangwai Secret Realm? Grandma's, it's exactly what the intelligence said, it's lifeless and makes me feel uncomfortable all over."
The flower-robed monk Qingju followed closely.
Just as he was about to chase forward, there was a sudden bang and he bumped into a large light screen. This sudden collision made stars appear in his eyes and he almost fainted on the spot.
Bang bang bang!
All the ancestors who were galloping side by side with the firecracker monk were also bumped into.
"break!"
An ancestor of the ancient demon clan was furious and punched the barrier.
However, the barrier only shook violently.
"Together!"
The supreme ancestor of the Yuwen family called on everyone to work together to break the formation.
Seeing that the Yan family had already run far away into the depths of the red earth, all the ancestors did not hesitate, and immediately launched their strongest attack, hitting a point in the barrier together.
Boom!
In an instant, the earth shook and the mountains shook, as if the entire secret realm was about to collapse and be destroyed.
However, after the sound and vibration passed, the formation barrier turned out to be safe and sound.
All the ancestors were stunned in disbelief.
"Go around!"
Some people wanted to go around, but found that the formation had already enveloped them.
"A bunch of idiots, let's just slowly play in the big formation. Do you really think that our Yan family's hundreds of years of digging into the secret realm have yielded nothing?"
Yan Zhengyang looked back, sneered and cursed.
Everyone in the Yan family laughed.
The secret realm here is filled with a large number of ancient formations. They have been breaking the formations for hundreds of years. Although the cost is huge, the gains from the formations are also quite huge.
This large formation to block the five major forces was modeled after a formation in the secret realm.
The power is obviously extraordinary.
"Tree spirit, where is this?"
Zhang Xiaozu has been observing this secret place.
As Yan Suxin said, there are many cities and caves and paradises here, but they are all dead and deserted.
The sky was gray and overcast.
"have no idea."
The tree spirit replied, "It's not the real world I know."
Flying thousands of miles forward in one breath, Yan Tiexin led everyone to a bare mountain, and landed on a square that was obviously artificially repaired halfway up the mountain.
There is a 40- to 50-foot-wide avenue winding up from the foot of the mountain and leading directly to the square.
There are many unknown stone statues of ferocious beasts standing on both sides of the square.
The center of the square is against the side of the mountain. At first glance, it looks like a cliff tens of feet high, but if you look closely, it turns out to be a huge reddish-brown door.
The broad and high-hanging lintel is clearly engraved with four characters: Gate of Eternal Life.
Zhang Xiaozu's eyes slowly swept over the Door of Eternal Life. The three triangular grooves in the center of the door made his pupils suddenly shrink.
