A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 22

Soon, the day of their separation arrived. Wu Hao watched Su Qiaoran’s departing figure, unable to suppress a sigh. A brief parting is like a newlywed experience, but now they would be apart for a year again, which left Wu Hao feeling somewhat gloomy.

After learning that his wife was entering the Magnificent Secret Realm, Wu Hao had already investigated the details of the realm.

First, about the formation of the Magnificent Secret Realm: it was established by the Magnificent Quasi-Emperor a million years ago after his accidental fall. In his dying moments, he opened this secret realm, which contained his inheritance. However, no one had managed to find it all these years.

Next, regarding the restrictions, the Magnificent Secret Realm naturally had its own prohibitions. It only allowed cultivators below Saint King under ten thousand years old to enter, and Su Qiaoran clearly fell into this category.

“No, I still can’t feel at ease about my wife’s safety, but it would be troublesome for me to enter. Right, I should let Wu Yifan go in. With his current strength, he should be able to handle anything that happens in such a small Magnificent Secret Realm.”

“Moreover, based on Wu Yifan’s Child of Destiny fate, he might even find the Magnificent Quasi-Emperor’s inheritance.”

Wu Hao soon made his decision. When he found Wu Yifan, he happened to encounter those three early-stage Saint Kings again, still in the midst of fleeing.

After all, Wu Yifan’s cultivation level had not fully recovered, and his Ancient Sacred Body was still stuck at the seventh level and had not broken through, so he could only escape awkwardly when facing them.

“Damn it, how can they always find me?”

Wu Yifan’s mind was filled with confusion over why they always tracked him down shortly after he changed locations, completely unaware that they might have planted something on him.

Just as Wu Yifan was about to flee, everything around him suddenly changed. This unexpected turn of events immediately made Wu Yifan tense up, but then a familiar voice eased his tension.

“Yifan.”

“Great Grandfather? Why are you in the Central Region too?”

Wu Yifan lowered his guard and turned to see that it was none other than Wu Hao who had come to take him away.

“I have my own matters to attend to in the Central Region, but right now, I have something for you to do.”

Wu Hao looked at Wu Yifan and explained the task of secretly protecting Su Qiaoran while she was inside the Magnificent Secret Realm.

Upon hearing about the Magnificent Secret Realm, Wu Yifan’s eyes brightened.

“Great Grandfather, how did you know I would be going into the Magnificent Secret Realm too?”

Well, it’s true that a Child of Destiny never misses out on benefits like this.

“It’s fine. This is a portrait of your Great Grandmother. Remember to take care of her once you enter the Magnificent Secret Realm. If necessary, you can reveal your identity, but make sure not to mention that I sent you,” Wu Hao advised, emphasizing that such matters were best handled discreetly.

“I understand, Great Grandfather. I promise to complete the task!”

Wu Yifan replied with a serious expression and was then escorted to the entrance of the Magnificent Secret Realm by Wu Hao.

After all, to enter the Magnificent Secret Realm, one only needed to reach the Saint level; it was unrelated to any backing forces, allowing even lone cultivators to come inside. This is why every opening of the Magnificent Secret Realm attracts attention from various forces in the Xuantian Realm.

Blending into the crowd, Wu Yifan scanned his surroundings and quickly spotted Su Qiaoran.

“Is that her, my Great Grandmother? She really is beautiful; no wonder I turned out so handsome.”

Wu Yifan thought to himself. His gaze naturally caught Su Qiaoran’s attention. As she looked toward him, Su Qiaoran felt a sense of familiarity, as if Wu Yifan was a relative.

However, before she could ponder further, the Magnificent Secret Realm opened at that moment. Su Qiaoran had no choice but to suppress her curiosity and follow the crowd into the realm.

At the same time, Murong Xue, who followed Su Qiaoran closely, couldn’t help but smile coldly as she watched Su Qiaoran enter the realm.

“Just wait, Su Qiaoran. This time in the realm, you will die here. Three Great Saint Peak! I’m eager to see how you, at the Peak of Saint, can survive!”

With that, Murong Xue also entered the Magnificent Secret Realm.

After a moment of dizziness, Wu Yifan and the others found themselves inside the Magnificent Secret Realm. The realm employed a random teleportation method—stepping into the teleportation portal would send one to a random location within it.

When the time was up, if one had survived, they would be expelled from the realm; if they had died, their remains would serve as nourishment for the realm.

“The Magnificent Secret Realm is really vast! It’s bigger than any previous realms I encountered,” Wu Yifan murmured, completely unaware that a ferocious beast at the Peak of Saint had silently approached behind him, opening its gaping mouth to bite down.

However, unexpectedly, in the next moment, Wu Yifan spun around and with a swift punch, crushed the ferocious beast at the Peak of Saint in one blow, not even getting a drop of blood on him.

“What a disgusting creature. If I had recovered to my previous state, there’s no way you would have gotten this close to me,” Wu Yifan sighed helplessly. His current realm had only just returned to the Peak of Void Refinement, so a ferocious beast at the Peak of Saint could still launch a sneak attack on him.

Of course, he would feel it the moment the creature made its move due to his robust physique. His body could be considered a cheat, given that only the celestial-level realm was considered when entering the Magnificent Secret Realm; it completely overlooked physical strength. This allowed Wu Yifan, who could rampage through Great Saints and even Saint Kings at the Peak of Void Refinement, to come inside.

“Alright, I should go find Great Grandmother first. Luckily, Great Grandfather gave me a way to find her before entering; otherwise, I really wouldn’t know how to locate her.”

With this thought, Wu Yifan took out the item Wu Hao had given him from his Storage Ring. It was a compass, with the needle pointing north. Seeing this, Wu Yifan hurriedly made his way in that direction.

He didn’t really take the inheritance of the Magnificent Quasi-Emperor to heart, especially with Great Grandfather around; after all, what was a Quasi-Emperor?

Though he wasn’t sure what realm his Great Grandfather was at, Wu Yifan had a feeling that his Great Grandfather was definitely more powerful than any mere Quasi-Emperor. If he could ensure Great Grandmother’s safety, it would be much more rewarding for him to receive an opportunity from Great Grandfather than to pursue the inheritance of the Magnificent Quasi-Emperor.

On the other hand, after entering the Magnificent Secret Realm, Su Qiaoran planned to search for opportunities. Those who entered the realm either sought to battle ferocious beasts for training or were looking for chances to enhance their strength.

However, at that moment, Su Qiaoran was unaware that three great experts at the Peak of Great Saint and an ant at the Peak of Void Refinement were heading in her direction.
