"Reporting to Master Zhang, it's one hundred thousand spirit stones per person."

Before the teleportation array, the cultivator in charge of collecting the fees immediately answered with a fawning bow to the five Nascent Soul cultivators who inquired. After all, he was merely a Core Formation cultivator.

"Boss, a hundred thousand each? That's five hundred thousand for us five."

"...Do you think I need you to teach me arithmetic?"

The boss slapped the talkative subordinate across the face, then slammed his hand on the table and said menacingly, "Do you know who I am?"

"Oh, Master Zhang, what are you saying? Who on Kun Du Star doesn't know the name of the Mountain South Five Tyrants?"

"Then you still dare to demand so much money from me?"

"Master Zhang, please don't misunderstand. It's the ancestor's rule. Who doesn't know our Ancestor Dao Xuan? He's impartial and his word is law. Master Zhang, please don't make things difficult for this junior. Even if I wanted to pay for you out of my own pocket, I wouldn't have that much money."

"Hmph, my five brothers are well-known. Even if Ancestor Dao Xuan were here, he would still give us face."

"Oh, really?"

A cold snort suddenly came from behind the burly man.

"Oh, Ancestor Dao Xuan, you've arrived."

The burly man, perhaps having learned the art of facial contortion, transformed from furious to a docile kitten with lightning speed.

"You say I have to give you face?"

"No, no, no, junior's mouth is foul. Please don't hold it against this lowly insect."

The burly man slapped himself several times across the face. The person opposite him was a Soul Transformation expert. While his five brothers dared to make a fuss with Core Formation cultivators, they wouldn't dare to act presumptuously before a Soul Transformation expert.

"The rules I set are ten thousand for ten thousand, not a single spirit stone less. If you have the ability, you can go rob others; I won't interfere."

After speaking, True Lord Dao Xuan closed his eyes and sat down on a chair. The teleportation array needed his personal attention to operate.

The burly man cast a fierce gaze at the surrounding people, causing them to retreat in fear.

"Master Zhang, we've already paid our money. We're all poor rogue cultivators, we truly have no more money."

"A bunch of beggars."

The burly man snorted coldly.

"Sigh, big brother, look, two people are coming from over there. They look quite wealthy, shall we..."

The talkative subordinate pointed south.

The burly man looked, his eyes lighting up. The young man and woman approaching in the distance were truly attractive, and their clothes were opulent. They were clearly wealthy individuals. The burly man initially intended to rob them directly, but after scanning them with his divine sense, he found that they were both upper-stage Nascent Soul experts. It seemed risky. After a moment's thought, he decided to try politeness first.

"Greetings, fellow Daoists."

The burly man cupped his fists and approached, his demeanor overflowing with warmth.

"Greetings, fellow Daoist."

Since the other party was so polite, Young Master Lei naturally wouldn't resort to violence immediately.

"You are here to travel to the Central Region of the continent, I presume?"

"Holy cow, this fellow looks ordinary, yet he can divine the future. Truly, one cannot judge a book by its cover."

"Fellow Daoist's calculations are miraculous. This junior is impressed."

"I am Zhang Tianlin. May I ask for your esteemed name, Fellow Daoist?"

"I am Wan Yu, and this is my humble wife."

Young Master Lei introduced himself with a smile. Fang Xiaoyu beside him rolled her eyes. *Humble wife? How unpleasant.*

"So you are Brother Wan. I've heard much about you. Your name is like thunder to my ears."

This statement unsettled Wan Lei. Could there really be a powerful individual named Wan Yu on this planet?

"Brother Zhang's name, this junior has also heard it for a long time."

After a round of polite mutual praise, Zhang Tianlin asked, "Fellow Daoist must also be heading to the Central Region's secret realm to explore. We five Nascent Soul experts here are not weak. Why don't we team up and go together?"

"Secret realm? What secret realm? We're going home."

"Ah? So you're Daoists from the Central Region. Brother Wan, you don't know yet? The secret realm left by the Six Immortals has already opened."

"The secret realm has opened? Oh, is that so? Not interested."

Young Master Lei was in a hurry to see his companions again, and he had already learned and gained enough on Kun Du Star. He truly had no interest in any so-called secret realms.

"Kid, are you an idiot?"

The little yellow dog jumped out, shouting angrily.

"Wh-what's wrong?"

Seeing the little yellow dog's serious expression, Wan Lei quickly cast a soundproofing array, enveloping the two of them and the dog.

"You dimwit, fool, idiot, moron..."

*Slap!*

"Stop cursing and quickly tell me what's going on!"

"Didn't I tell you before? These six secret realms were left by those six individuals. They mainly contain divine abilities and profound techniques. The best abilities are the Four Divine Consciousness abilities and one speed ability."

"I know. We've already learned two of the Four Divine Consciousness abilities, and we don't need the speed ability; our speed is already sufficient."

"Idiot, do you think the divine consciousness abilities you learned are the complete versions? Do you think you've fully grasped them? That's not important. What's important is that speed ability, it's practically an external cheat!"

"External cheat? What does that mean?"

"In short, it's very powerful. Let me put it this way: it's called a speed ability, but it was modified by that young man named Xia, integrating spatial rules and even surpassing spatial rules. That technique is called the Wind Blade Escape Technique, using wind as a blade to cut through space. No matter how fast you fly, you're still flying within space. That technique directly transcends space. Its greatest characteristic is that it ignores all formations, seals, and spatial blockades, because these are all based on usage within space, but this ability transcends space. Do you understand?!"

"I understand. If this ability were in Xiaoyu's hands, it would definitely be utilized to its fullest."

"Yes, they split this ability into six parts. You need to reach the end of each secret realm to obtain a token. The six tokens combined form the complete spatial profound technique."

"That troublesome?"

"What do you think? Otherwise, why hasn't anyone obtained the Wind Blade Escape Technique in fifty thousand years?"

"Alright, then let's not rush to the Yin Yang Sect for now. Let's try this secret realm first."

Wan Lei removed the soundproofing array and asked Zhang Tianlin with a smile, "Fellow Daoist, could you please provide some details about this secret realm?"

"Certainly. The secret realm that has opened this time is the Wood Immortal Secret Realm. Because we are far from the continent, the news traveled slowly. It's already been open for three days, and these Daoists are all heading there to explore."

"I see. Thank you, Fellow Daoist."

After speaking, Wan Lei pulled Fang Xiaoyu towards the teleportation array.

"Hey, Fellow Daoist, that's not proper."

Zhang Tianlin's expression suddenly darkened.

"What do you mean?"

"I've informed Fellow Daoist of such important news. Shouldn't Fellow Daoist express some gratitude?"

Zhang Tianlin extended his hand, rubbing his fingers together.

"Ah? Is that so? How much?"

Young Master Lei understood immediately.

"Three hundred thousand spirit stones."

"Three hundred thousand?!"

Wan Lei suddenly understood. He turned to look at Fang Xiaoyu and then smiled, "Wife, he's robbing me."
