Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World

Chapter 501: Chapter 273: Skillful Crossing the Tribulation, Obtaining Fifth-Grade Opportunity

”It seems the only option is to head to Cyan Stone Mountain.”

Jiang Fan immediately made his decision.

Although going to Cyan Stone Mountain would only yield a Fifth-Grade Opportunity, it offered the advantage of having no hidden dangers or risks.

But if he went somewhere else, even if he could obtain a Fourth-Grade Opportunity, the problem was the tremendous danger that came with it.

He might even end up losing his life here.

So, naturally, he couldn’t choose to go elsewhere; nothing was more important than his own life.

”After obtaining this Fifth-Grade Opportunity, I should leave the Black Dragon Secret Realm.”

Jiang Fan instinctively sensed that the Black Dragon Secret Realm was becoming increasingly dangerous, and likely, there wasn’t a single safe place.

If he continued to stay in the Black Dragon Secret Realm, no matter where he hid, he might encounter disaster.

Even if this Secret Realm World was indeed a Cultivation Holy Land, if it threatened his life, it wouldn’t be suitable to stay long.

Swoosh!

With this in mind, Jiang Fan’s figure flashed, and he immediately exited the inner world of the Exquisite Tower, heading in the direction of Cyan Stone Mountain. Although he didn’t know the exact location of Cyan Stone Mountain, guided by the Fortune-Telling Talisman, it was easy enough to find, so he didn’t have to worry about getting lost.

...

Meanwhile, many human cultivators staying in the Black Dragon Secret Realm also noticed the same anomaly.

However, they were already very familiar with such changes.

After all, humans had entered and exited the Black Dragon Secret Realm many times before, understanding quite a bit about this Secret Realm World, unlike Jiang Fan, who was entirely in the dark about it.

”The demon beasts in the Black Dragon Secret Realm have started to riot. It seems we can only stay in this Secret Realm World for one month, after which the forces here will soon expel us,”

said a Nascent Soul Cultivator in a deep voice.

”Elder, why are these demon beasts in the Black Dragon Secret Realm suddenly rioting? Is there a secret behind this?”

Many cultivators curiously asked.

They were completely baffled by the reason for the demon beasts’ riot.

”Regarding this, many cultivators are quite curious.”

”Unfortunately, to this day, no one knows the reason.”

”After all, each time the Black Dragon Secret Realm opens, it’s very short, only just a year.”

”In such a short year, exploring the Secret Realm World itself is already challenging, let alone uncovering its secrets.”

The Nascent Soul Cultivator shook his head, not very clear on why the Black Dragon Secret Realm was in such a state. In fact, this was a mystery that lay deep in the hearts of countless cultivators who entered the Black Dragon Secret Realm.

Other cultivators could not help but nod in agreement, as they entered the Black Dragon Secret Realm primarily to obtain various spirit medicines and opportunities within the Secret Realm World.

Though curious about its secrets, they couldn’t afford to devote themselves to full-scale exploration.

Additionally, even if they knew the secrets, they probably wouldn’t greatly benefit from them.

Moreover, the Black Dragon Secret Realm was excessively vast, boundless even.

Even though this Secret Realm World had existed for tens of thousands of years, they had only explored one percent of it, or perhaps even less than that.

”However, some cultivators do have their guesses about this secret.”

”It’s said that the Black Dragon might not be dead yet.”

The Nascent Soul Cultivator said mysteriously.

”How is that possible?”

”Indeed, even a Divinity Transformation Cultivator can only live for three thousand years, so how could the Black Dragon still be alive?”

”That speculation is quite unbelievable.”

Many cultivators widened their eyes, finding this guess utterly absurd.

”Hehe, it’s true that Divinity Transformation Cultivators can only live for three thousand years.”

”But if that Black Dragon is an existence beyond Divinity Transformation, then we can’t determine how long it might live.”

The Nascent Soul Cultivator said quietly.

”This.”

Upon hearing this, many cultivators fell silent, rendered speechless. As cultivators from great families, they indeed had heard similar rumors, saying that some Upper Realm Cultivators had cultivation surpassing Divinity Transformation.

However, those were legendary figures, almost like deities walking the mortal world.

They had never encountered such world-shaking figures.

Nonetheless, if the Black Dragon truly were an existence beyond Divinity Transformation, it wouldn’t be impossible for it not to have died yet.

”Haha, you don’t need to be so tense; it’s just a speculation.”

”Even if the Black Dragon weren’t dead yet, its condition would probably be quite adverse, otherwise it wouldn’t have been silent for so long.”

”So this actually doesn’t matter to us at all.”

”Whether it is dead or not, we are just here to seek opportunities.”

The Nascent Soul Cultivator laughed heartily, comforting the people, knowing these matters were far too distanced from them. Those were issues for Divinity Transformation Cultivators to consider, not for them to ponder over.

Moreover, no issue had arisen in the Black Dragon Secret Realm for tens of thousands of years, so it likely wouldn’t have problems in the future either.

”That’s right, we’re indeed worrying unnecessarily; it would be better to consider what treasures we can obtain in this final month. After all, who knows when the Black Dragon Secret Realm will next appear.”

”That’s true, and this demon beast riot might even be beneficial for us. Perhaps we can team up to slay a few, and this way, even if we don’t get rare spirit medicine, we can obtain these demon beasts’ carcasses, which have no trivial value.”

”And we must remain vigilant against those demon race cultivators, who will certainly become more frantic in the final month.”
