Chapter 400 - 350 : Three days (1/2)
Only three days are left before the opening of the Secret Realm. All the visitors who came from different high and medium-Realms headed East. Arthur and Lucy also departed, they didn't tag along with Shu Ru or Jian Si, who went with their respective sects.
They used the red Spirit Boat, the one they got in the Underworld. Its speed was not bad and since they left a while ago, they arrived in six days, more or less.
The Secret Realm opening is situated at the far East of Green-Leaf. The couple saw a sea that stretched as far as the eye could see. Though it a sea, it was actually called the dragon's river. When the time comes, a portal will appear, allowing everyone to enter the dragon's secret Realm. However, the dragon's lair is fraught with danger and peril.
It has countless priceless treasures, whether it's medicinal herbs, artifacts or ancient minerals. The goal of those rogue or weak cultivators is to acquire a decent treasure. Only those from High-Realms or powerful backgrounds are here to get their hands on things much more heaven-defying.
As for Arthur and Lucy, they were seeking an archaic artifact that can protect souls. Losha already informed her disciple of the location of the artifact, all they have to do is go and get it. Honestly, Arthur doesn't know what to do after acquiring that artifact, do they leave? Or wait for something to happen?
Many cultivators were camping on the shore of the river. They were divided into numerous groups, either belonging to a faction, or they're just allying together to make things easier for them once they enter.
There are some notable people that grabbed much more attention than others, particularly the silver-haired woman that strongly resembled Lucy. Though she was only accompanied by the scarred old man, who seemed like a butler, none dared to approach her or even greet her.
It's either they're afraid of her or she doesn't have any friends, though Arthur was sure of the latter guess. The woman was most likely Lucy's sister and knowing his wife's behavior, it's not a surprise that her sister doesn't have any friends.
The woman was indifferent and didn't even spare a glance at the others. She just sat cross-legged and silently meditated. The butler, however, would look around every now and then, causing the talking crowds to stiffen and turn their head away.
One more group was a pink-haired girl, a grey-robbed young man, and the red-haired youth, who recently took the position of the Patriarch in the Five Phoenix Kingdom. Despite his weak cultivation, he still managed to acquire that position.
Moreover, Arthur noticed the youngster's sudden increase in cultivation. Rel Huo, known as the Flame Crown Prince, was now a Fusion Sovereign.
'His sect must've used quite a lot of treasures to raise his cultivation so fast… it's a shame.'
Arthur wasn't going to spare the young man, knowing that his father dared to attack him like that. Furthermore, from the way this kid acted when his father died, it was certain that he harbored malice towards him.
Arthur won't risk getting exposed just to kill Rel, however, it shouldn't be hard to sneak-attack him, especially with how chaotic the Secret Realm is.
From within a clustered crowd of weak cultivators, Arthur, who was possessing an innocent little boy, gazed at the pink-haired girl then at Artid, the young man next to her.
