Many people stood at the entrance of the East Lotus Sect. Two people were at the front, one woman and a middle-aged man. And behind them stood five elderlies with gray hair and aged spots on their faces.
“Ancestor, why do you think the sect master of the Dao Opening Sect is coming to our sect?” asked the middle-aged man called Pan Zemin–the sect master.
“How would I know why such a supreme entity would come to this backward place?” replied the oldest ancestor.
“Do you think he came here to destroy our sect?” asked another.
“Not likely. We did not offend them or even have any contact. Plus, if he wanted to destroy us, he did not have to send a formal notice of arrival or come in person,” said the only woman of the five ancestors.
“His arrival might be an opportunity for us,” said another, looking at the young woman next to the patriarch.
“Don’t even think about it. He’s already married.”
“It’s normal for such a supreme entity to have a harem of dozen wives and concubines. Our sect will rise as long as Fei’s get some of his favors.”
Pan Jingfei lowered her head, not daring to say something.
“According to information we know, the Wang Clan has only one Dao Companion in the last three generations,” said the oldest ancestor. “No offense to you, Fei’er, but I don’t think you’re worthy even to be his concubine.”
The other four quieted down as they agreed with this sentence. If the sect master wanted more wives and concubines, countless Emperor Lineages would line up to send their best disciples to be chosen. So, it will never be the turn of their East Lotus Sect.

Then, everybody waited quietly. A few minutes later, Wang Wei landed from the sky.
“I apologize for my tardiness,” said Wang Wei with a smile, even though he arrived at the exact time he notified them.
“No, no, it’s us who arrived earlier,” Pan Zemin hurriedly said.
“You can be at ease since I have no malicious intent said,” Wang Wei as he observed these people. The man in the front–who is most likely the sect master–was in the Void Shattering Realm. The woman next to her had just entered the Primordial Spirit Realm, and the five elderlies were in the Saint Realm.
However, Wang Wei can see their foundation was weak and running out of life essence; they probably had between 5000 to 12,000 years to live.
“Once I achieve my purpose, I will reward your sect.”
“Thank you, sect master, for your generosity,” they said as they quickly bowed. Wang Wei nodded before following these people into the sect; he also took this opportunity to get to know them. The members of the East Lotus Sect soon noticed he was easy to get along with.
He had no arrogance or displayed any pride or contempt for them. So, they can only sigh that the disciples raised by these powerful lineages are something else.
Wang Wei came here for the secret realm Heavenly Dao gave him. The reason for his caution was that he needed to go here to open the hidden realm instead of using the token to teleport inside directly. He feared Heavenly Dao was plotting against him, so he did not secretly come to this sect and enter. After chatting with these people, he dismissed them on the excuse he wanted to rest.
He wanted to observe for a few days to see if there were any anomalies, and he did. There is a very well-hidden secret realm with a weird aura in this place. He did not immediately go in but continued searching the sect.
A few days later, he entered the weird secret realm. He saw a man sitting cross-legged with an eerie black aura emanating from him. Wang Wei instantly felt this man’s aura was familiar, and it took him a moment to figure it out.
‘The aura is similar to Yi Lianchang–except less pure.’
The man opened his eyes and looked at Wang Wei with great ferocity. “Who are you?”
“Are you the founder of the East Lotus Sect?” asked Wang Wei instead of replying. He searched through all the sect records and made a bold guess based on the gathered data.
“The East Lotus Sect,” muttered the weird man with a look of reminisce. “That was a long time ago.”
Indeed. From the information Wang Wei gathered, the East Lotus Sect was only 20 million years old, and their patriarch was only in the Saint Realm when he passed away. Yet, this man was alive.please visit panda(-)N0ve1.co)m
The power of Fate and Yin-Yang flashed in Wang Wei’s eyes as he divined the secret of Heaven; he wanted to know the origin of this person’s weirdness.
“The Abyss Gap,” he muttered, making the founder frown. “How did you know?”
Wang Wei did not answer him as he figured out many things. Heavenly Dao sensed some danger to the world originating from this place, so it wanted to guide Wang Wei here to eradicate it.
‘This is why I don’t like you. You could have just told me, and I would have taken care of it,’ he thought, shaking his head. He then focused on finding more information about the Abyss Gap, but he could not divine any more power.
‘Is the Abyss Gap related to Cthulhu and the Old Ones? Or is there another reason why the aura is so similar?’
“Your arrogance disgusts me,” said the founder. “Regardless, you exude such vitality. Something tells me I will benefit greatly after swallowing you.”
Wang Wei was annoyed this guy interrupted his thinking, so he waved his hand. Numerous runes appeared around the founder, and he turned into a bead before he could react. Wang Wei did not want to eradicate him since he could find more information after capturing him. So, he sealed him, including his consciousness, to ensure he did not kill himself to escape. He did not know whether this guy was immortal similar to Yu Zhou or Yi Lianchang.
Wang Wei searched his soul and learned a lot of new information. The founder’s name is Qin Li, and 20 million years ago, as he approached the limit of his lifespan, he left the sect to find an opportunity to break through. And one of the islands between the central and southern continent, he found his chance.
It was an altar to pray to an extraordinary being. According to the information, as long as he asked that great being anything, they would achieve his wish. Qin Li was not stupid, so he knew the possible consequences of dealing with powerful and unknown entities. Unfortunately, he feared death.
In desperation, he used the altar and succeeded. The unknown entity granted him longevity and power. The only thing it asked in return was for him to secretly set up a formation at some point in the future. Although Qin Li could guess the purpose of this formation, he could not refuse; he was already in too deep, and his soul no longer belonged to him.
“Someone is plotting the Myriad Emperor World,” muttered Wang Wei. He’s done a similar thing as this altar using his Soul Network. “No, maybe not just us but the entire lower dimension.” This plot might be bigger than it seemed on the surface.
He waved his hand to create a talisman and contacted his wife.
“Do you know anything about the Abyss Gap?” he asked directly, making Wu Hong frown as she tried to remember.
“The only thing I know is it’s a forbidden land in the Endless Void that is sealed. Most Emperors from the Endless Void will reinforce the seal before ascending. But even then, a weird aura will be released to corrode the seal.”
“Even with so many Emperors reinforcing it, it still corrodes the seal?”
“Yes.”
“Even your seal?”
“I did not have a chance to add to it,” replied Wu Hong. After proving the Dao, her time in the lower dimension was short, and she spent most of it annihilating the devil race. And before her exile to the upper dimension, she did not have the opportunity to add her own seal.
“Why are you asking about this?”
Wang Wei explained the situation to her.
“If the Abyss Gap is related to a taboo, it would complicate things.”
“You don’t sound too worried.”
“Well, these troubles are your problem.”
Wang Wei’s lips twitched before ending the talisman. He looked at this secret realm and used the Law of Space to take it away; he wanted to see if he could find more clues.
He returned to the East Lotus Sect. He did not tell these people about what happened but rewarded them. He modified their sect cultivation technique to reach the Quasi Emperor Realm and helped these ancestors to extend their life by another 2000 years.
Finally, he used the token to enter the secret realm from the Null Era.
