Since ancient times, the Dark Realm had been a forbidden area on the Star Continent. Few people ever entered it.
Today however, the eternal silence was broken.
A figure dressed in an exceptional white robe enveloped in a divine glow illuminated the ancient land of darkness like a deity descending upon the mortal world.
"The geographical environment of this realm doesn't seem to be naturally formed. Instead, it seems to be man-made."
As soon as Jun Xiaoyao stepped inside, he vaguely sensed the fluctuations of the activation of the array.
At that point, Jun Xiaoyao was even more certain that the treasury of the Star Palace that belonged to Star Lord Wuji was hidden in the Dark Realm.
Jun Xiaoyao lowered his eyes and saw many white skeletons scattered on the ground. They were probably left behind by people who entered the Dark Realm before.
Aside from that, there were also many unknown animal bones.
From this, it could be seen that the Dark Realm was not devoid of creatures.
Just as Jun Xiaoyao had this thought, the ground suddenly began to tremble.
Boom!
The entire Dark Realm began to tremble.
"What's going on?"
"Did something happen?"
The cultivators from the Star Continent who followed him in all wore uneasy expressions.
Without Jun Xiaoyao leading the way, they probably wouldn't have dared to enter at all.
In the distance, a dense black tide attacked.
"Demon beast! It's a demon beast horde!" some cultivators shouted at the sight.
"No, it's not an ordinary demon beast horde!" Some geniuses also noticed the anomaly.
These Demonic Beasts were covered in stardust, exuding a rich power of stars.
The Demonic Beasts were all Star Beasts that could be used to cultivate.
Such Star beasts were obviously more powerful and terrifying than ordinary demon beasts.
Such a powerful tide of Star Beasts, coupled with the limitation of cultivation level in the Dark Realm, made it impossible for cultivators above the Divine Flame Realm to enter.
As a result, the Dark Realm became a land of death!
Many cultivators were alarmed by the incoming tide of Star Beasts and began to regret it.
They turned around and wanted to retreat from the Dark Realm, but they realized that they couldn't tell which direction they were heading at all. They were surrounded by darkness.
Jun Xiaoyao's expression remained calm as he watched the struggling and terrified cultivators.
The world was fair.
Since they wanted to come in to search for opportunities, they had to be prepared to lose their life.
Of course, the world was also unfair.
That was because Jun Xiaoyao could live without paying any price.
Nothing in the lower realm could threaten him.
Soon, the tide of beasts collided with the cultivators.
All of a sudden, the cultivators on the Star Continent unleashed a variety of martial arts techniques.
To everyone's surprise, the Star Beasts also unleashed many powerful Abhijnas.
Furthermore, there were plenty of Heavenly Completion Stage and even Divine Fire Stage cultivators among the Star Beasts.
It was common knowledge that demonic beasts were generally stronger than cultivators of the same level.
The physique of a demonic beast was far stronger than that of a cultivator.
The sounds of fighting, screaming, and killing rang out from all directions.
Blood spurted everywhere.
Some cultivators were mercilessly torn apart by the Star Beasts.
Some Star Beasts had their heads pierced by cultivators.
As for Jun Xiaoyao?
He didn't even need to do anything.
If any star beast dared to approach him.
Yi Yu and the Nine-headed Lion by his side could solve all problems.
Yi Yu drew his bow with nine arrows and pierced through a huge star beast in front of him.
The Nine-headed Lion, on the other hand, was even more powerful. Its nine heads roared as the sound waves of the Lion's Roar shattered a group of Star Beasts in front of it.
Despite the fact that the Nine-headed Lion was usually Jun Xiaoyao's personal mount and had a rather eccentric personality, Jun Xiaoyao didn't dare to underestimate it.
It was only obedient in front of Jun Xiaoyao.
In the eyes of other creatures, the Nine-headed Lion was a symbol of fierce dignity.
Saint Child Tianxing and the others were also engaged in a bitter fight. They looked at Jun Xiaoyao from the corner of their eyes with envy.
They were fighting desperately here.
However, Jun Xiaoyao didn't even need to lift a finger.
Jun Xiaoyao and the others of his group were also the fastest to advance.
Next were the Saint Child of Heavenly Star, Zhao Lie, and Chu Hongyi.
Although they were nothing compared to Jun Xiaoyao, they were already considered top geniuses in the Star Continent.
As for the remaining geniuses, only a few of them were able to force their way in. Most of them perished.
At the same time, Ye Xingyun and Mo Fan also entered the Dark Realm.
Ye Xingyun had Uncle Fu and other Dao Protectors, but they couldn't enter the Dark Realm.
They also encountered astral beasts, but to their surprise, they didn't attack Ye Xingyun and Mo Fan.
Instead, they knelt on the ground as if they were welcoming their master.
"Heh, I knew it." Ye Xingyun grew even more excited at the sight.
He truly was the destined one.
On the side, Mo Fan's eyes flickered as he clenched his fist.
Child of Destiny?
He was the destined one, alright?
Mo Fan gritted his teeth.
He survived the calamity and merged with the mysterious tiny astral creature.
Logically speaking, he was the one who was destined to be the star of the show.
If the vault of the Star Palace left behind by Star Lord Wuji was truly in the Dark Realm…
It should belong to him!
What made Ye Xingyun think he could take it away from him?
Ye Xingyun said that he would give Mo Fan some opportunities.
However, Mo Fan also knew that Ye Xingyun would only give him some scraps at most.
Despite feeling indignant, Mo Fan didn't show it.
This situation was better than before.
Ye Xingyun didn't notice the unwillingness in Mo Fan's eyes.
Even if he did notice it, he probably wouldn't care too much.
People from the Mystic Realm would instinctively feel superior to people from the lower realm.
To Ye Xingyun, Mo Fan was nothing more than a tool.
Ye Xingyun said, "Alright, Mo Fan. Without the hindrance of the Star Beasts, we'll arrive at the location earlier than the others. By then, you'll have to open the gate to the treasury of the Star Palace."
"Yes, Mo Fan knows." Mo Fan lowered his head, a cold light flashing across his eyes.
The two of them were traveling at an extremely fast speed.
Before long, a huge fissure appeared on the ground before them.
A magnificent palace could be vaguely seen at the bottom of the fissure.
The entire palace was illuminated by starlight.
It was the only light in the entire Dark Realm.
The light that Jun Xiaoyao and the others saw in the Dark Realm was emitted by the Star Palace.
"Great!" Ye Xingyun was thrilled.
He sensed a resonance. This was an opportunity that belonged to him.
Just when Ye Xingyun was feeling extremely excited, a rumble was heard from afar.
The flaming arrows drew rays of divine light as a lion roared.
"Damn it, Jun Xiaoyao is here already!" Ye Xingyun's eyes dimmed as he said hastily, "Mo Fan, hurry up and open the gate to the Star Palace."
Mo Fan nodded slightly. A cloud of starlight appeared.
That was the power unleashed by the tiny astral-being in his body.
The ball of starlight merged with the gate of the treasury.
The next moment, the door of the Star Palace opened with a crack!
