It didn’t take long for Jiang Fan to arrive at the depths of the ruined palace.
Following the information from the Fortune-Telling Talisman, he entered this palace and then saw a painting on the wall.
This was an ancient and rustic painting, depicting numerous exotic beasts and spirit beasts, densely packed, as if it encompassed all the beasts of the world, exuding an ancient and unfathomable aura.
He immediately realized that this painting was clearly the Third-Grade Opportunity.
"Elder Fu, do you know what this is?"
Jiang Fan immediately asked.
Since the Primordial Talisman Pen is an ancient artifact of inheritance, it naturally understands various ancient secrets of the Cultivation Realm.
If even it doesn’t know, then few people would understand.
"This is an Ancient Secret Realm."
"And this painting is the key to controlling this Secret Realm."
"If you can refine this Magical Treasure, then you can completely control this Secret Realm World."
"Your luck is quite extraordinary, to have found this secret realm treasure."
The Primordial Talisman Pen said admiringly.
Even though it knew this kid’s luck was quite heaven-defying, it didn’t expect him to casually find a Secret Realm World from the Ancient Era and gain the opportunity to control it, which is truly incredible.
"Able to control the Secret Realm World? How to control it?"
Jiang Fan asked curiously.
After all, controlling a Secret Realm World is not an easy task.
Previously, he had visited some Secret Realm Worlds, but he couldn’t find a way to control them.
"In the Ancient Era, some forces found the Secret Realm World."
"They would set up a Grand Array in the Secret Realm World."
"Thus, they could fully control these Secret Realm Worlds using the strength of the Grand Array."
"They could even set certain rules in the Secret Realm World."
"For instance, the intervals at which the Secret Realm could be opened, and limiting the cultivation level of cultivators who enter the Secret Realm World."
"It’s precisely due to the power of the array that these Secret Realm Worlds have rules."
The Primordial Talisman Pen explained.
"So all the Secret Realms like Yiling Secret Realm and Black Dragon Secret Realm that I’ve visited were Secret Realms from the Ancient Era, and they’ve long been controlled by a Grand Array?"
Jiang Fan came to a realization.
No wonder he felt that these Secret Realm Worlds contained great dangers, and one must absolutely not enter during the closure of the Secret Realm World, lest they fall into a Death Tribulation.
Now it seems these Secret Realm Worlds are indeed highly perilous.
If he enters during the period when the Secret Realm World isn’t open, he could be destroyed by the Grand Array within.
"That’s indeed the case."
"If you want to control these Secret Realm Worlds, you need to control the core of the array."
"But under normal circumstances, ordinary cultivators have no chance to enter the core and refine the array."
"However, things are different now."
"This Secret Realm World seems to have been heavily damaged, and even the Array Spirit has fallen into slumber."
"That’s why the entrance and exit of the Secret Realm World opened automatically, allowing other cultivators to enter."
"And this painting before us, doubtless, is the core treasure of this Secret Realm World."
"Cultivators of the Ancient Era used the power of this treasure as the core of the array, maintaining its operations."
"So if you refine this treasure, it equates to controlling this Secret Realm World."
The Primordial Talisman Pen explained concisely.
In fact, this is one way to control the Secret Realm World, which is to refine the core of the Secret Realm’s array.
If one day he can refine the array cores of the Black Dragon Secret Realm, Yiling Secret Realm, and others, then he can control these Secret Realm Worlds, transforming them into his own private gardens.
"Refining this Magical Treasure isn’t so easy."
"If I’m not mistaken, it’s at least a Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasure level item."
"Without the artifact spirit’s consent, it’s almost impossible to succeed in refining."
The Demon-Vibrating Bell spoke, asserting that refining the Secret Realm treasure is extremely difficult, almost impossible.
"That’s indeed the case."
"Even in the Ancient Era, few cultivators could achieve such a feat."
"Unless you gain the recognition of the Secret Realm World Array Spirit, and have it willingly accept you as master."
"Otherwise, forcefully accepting mastery would only lead to the destruction of the Secret Realm World."
"Nothing good would come of it then."
The Primordial Talisman Pen admitted.
It’s precisely because of this that Secret Realm Worlds become the strongholds of many ancient forces.
After all, outsiders can hardly invade and cannot control the arrays of Secret Realm Worlds.
Swish!
Upon hearing this, Jiang Fan didn’t say a word. He stepped up to the painting and placed his hand on it.
At the same time, he immediately consumed a large amount of Luck Points.
Ten thousand Luck Points, fifty thousand Luck Points, one hundred thousand Luck Points, one hundred fifty thousand Luck Points...
In the end, he consumed a total of four hundred thousand Luck Points.
A mysterious energy surged from his body, then penetrated deeply into the painting.
Instantly, Jiang Fan sensed the artifact spirit deep within the core of the treasure, like a flickering flame about to go out.
Without a doubt, if not for him, the artifact spirit of this treasure would quickly extinguish.
But as this mysterious energy merged within, it rapidly enhanced the spirituality of the artifact spirit, causing this small flame to burn brightly, its spirituality growing energetically.
He noticed strands of his soul’s power also threading into the depths of this treasure’s core.
