Celestial Venerable Secret Realm, secret chamber...

The female cultivator in the pitch-black sword robe sat on the True Spirit Jade Platform for a long time, gradually opened her eyes, and looked at Song Yan, saying, "This Lotus Platform has no issues."

But she received no response.

Her beautiful eyebrows couldn't help but knit together, and a look of displeasure appeared in her eyes.

At this moment, Song Yan finally responded, "Oh."

Su Yao retracted her long legs, switching from sitting cross-legged to sitting normally, then gently pressed her ten fingers against the cold True Spirit Jade under her seat. Her eyes showed a hint of reluctance because, in just this short moment of sitting, she felt as if she had been cultivating for several days, which was truly absurd.

If she could continue sitting like this, she felt she might even break through to the Divine Infant Realm in just a few decades.

But, this Lotus Platform belonged to Song Yan, and she was just a poison tester; this much she understood.

Su Yao slowly left the Lotus Platform, curled up in a corner alone, but upon glancing at Song Yan, she found him completely indifferent, not even intending to sit on the Lotus Platform. A feeling of wasting a treasure welled up in her heart, prompting her to call out, "Hey."

Song Yan replied impatiently, "Stupid woman, what now?"

Su Yao coldly responded, "I'm just reminding you again, that Lotus Platform isn't just fine, it's incredibly miraculous. You can sit on it now."

Song Yan sneered disdainfully.

Su Yao was taken aback.

Song Yan said chillingly, "Perhaps you want to drag me down with you, so you pretend there's no problem even though you know there is, trying to trick me into sitting on it. I've seen through such childish tricks before."

Su Yao's peach-like cheeks flushed with anger, and her watery almond-shaped eyes widened.

Song Yan continued in a cold tone, "Sit back down! I want to see whether this Lotus Platform really has a problem or not!"

"Fine!!"

Su Yao rose and sat back down, then added, "This Lotus Platform is a treasure, you can sit on it, but don't regret it!"

Song Yan snorted coldly, "I never regret anything!"

After saying this, he felt significantly better.

This was why he liked the female knight.

Su Yao, this girl, once tried hard to become mature, become cunning, but such is nature, it cannot be changed. Now, she probably understands this herself, so she has stopped trying to change.

Quarreling with such a girl always made him feel relaxed and cheerful, and it filled him with vitality and energy.

He cast his gaze around the sealed stone walls, slightly perceiving the surroundings, discovering that this secret chamber was extremely peculiar; even with his "immortal thought of the master of heaven and earth," he couldn't extend his divine sense to peer outside.

He stood up, pacing slowly along the walls.

The scenery outside the walls gradually entered his perception, but he couldn't perceive further away.

After walking around once, Song Yan organized his thoughts briefly, and then instantly understood.

In two words, his current situation was... a besieged city!

This stone chamber, while isolating the entrance of Netherworld creatures, was heavily surrounded by them.

If Song Yan wanted to leave, he would have to fight his way out.

However... he sensed that those surrounding him were not ordinary Netherworld creatures but a circle of hazy white mist.

In this mist were Meng Po's toads and various corpse demons, including his previously scattered conscious corpse demon avatar.

Unless he was prepared to risk his life, there was no way out.

The only solution was to call Long Muyun.

Song Yan suddenly realized that the Celestial Venerable Secret Realm had become a completely sealed Great Celestial Prison, and this stone chamber was a sealed cage within the Great Celestial Prison, with no messages getting in or out!

His mind spun as he continued to investigate.

Previously, while fleeing from Meng Po, he only felt the secret realm was blocked, but now that he was calm, he had more time to observe carefully.

This close observation led him to frown because he could clearly perceive that the entrance was sealed in a self-destructive manner, now a chaotic space turbulence.

"Crazy woman..."

Song Yan couldn't help but mutter.

Su Yao was cultivating with her legs crossed and, upon hearing his complaint, opened her eyes full of resentment and snorted coldly, "What?"

Song Yan said, "I wasn't talking about you."

Then he added, "Don't you have any self-awareness?"

Su Yao was taken aback, took a deep breath to suppress her anger, and continued to absorb the Profound Yellow Material retrieved from the void by the Demon Mother.

Song Yan thought for a moment, approached the Lotus Platform, and patted Su Yao's back.

A strand of radiance silently slipped into her embrace between his fingers.

Su Yao didn't notice, was momentarily stunned, then left the Lotus Platform in a huff.

Song Yan climbed up himself, repeatedly visualizing the "Mirage Mist Toad Chanting Three-legged Scripture" in his mind.

This cultivation technique had a sentence written on the first page: Without the Heart Method, not of my tribe, no cultivation is possible.

And it recorded a cultivation method of an ancient demon called the "Three-legged Mist Toad."

Its descriptions in the Purple Mansion and Divine Infant Realm sections confirmed Song Yan's previous suspicions.

The Human Race cultivates thoughts to nurture the Divine Infant, while demons further refine their bodies.

This divergence becomes most apparent at the Divine Infant Realm.

The Human Race practices to develop a powerful divine soul, and then finds a new body for it, which becomes the Lifebound Secret Treasure.

Though demons also forge a Lifebound Secret Treasure, they fuse it with their own body.

This "Mirage Mist Toad Chanting Three-legged Scripture" explains how to integrate at the Divine Infant Level.

But its description assumes "you must be a Three-legged Mist Toad."

Ancient techniques require True Spirit Jade for cultivation, so their complexity far surpasses modern techniques.

Demons without certain bloodlines cannot practice their own cultivation techniques, and ancient tribes need a divine soul to do the same. As for the first demon, the first ancient race cultivating in this manner, it remains an incredibly complex secret.
