Upon waking, Xia Feng felt he was just one step away from entering the realm of the Martial Sovereign, yet he couldn't help but feel a sense of regret.

Before reaching Martial Sovereign, his top grade talent was usable, but after reaching it, his top grade qualifications seemed somewhat insufficient.

However, beside him, an old man in blue slowly opened his eyes.

His pupils were as calm as an ancient well, and his aura was restrained to the extreme, looking just like an ordinary old man.

But as he fully opened his eyes, a terrifying pressure suddenly descended upon the heavens of Xingyu City.

Feeling this majesty, Xia Feng's eyes widened instantly.

"Son, what realm has your grandfather broken through to, for there to be such a substantial pressure from the heavens?"

Similarly just awakened, Xia Naiwen went to the window, gazing at the nearly frozen space outside, mouth agape.

"This feeling is... Earth Tier First Layer Martial Sovereign?"

Before Xia Feng could speak, Xia Tianming couldn't help but exclaim.

"Earth Tier First Layer Martial Sovereign? Dad, in ten thousand years, you actually leapt two realms, could it be your Emperor Body still exists?"

This gave Xia Naiwen quite a scare, as breakthroughs in the Martial Sovereign realm often took thousands of years, and in the Great Xia Empire, many Yellow Tier First Layer Martial Sovereigns took thirty to forty thousand years to barely reach Yellow Tier Ninth Layer.

But Xia Tianming, within ten thousand years, directly jumped from Yellow Tier First Layer Martial Sovereign to Earth Tier First Layer!

That's a total of eighteen minor realms!

"No, the Emperor Body has long been gone, this Dream Realm is too terrifying, it can even simulate the Domain of the Void Cauldron!"

Xia Tianming took several deep breaths; the feeling of an Earth Tier Martial Sovereign was unmistakable to him.

No matter what, he had walked the Emperor's path once more!

"A dream of ten thousand years, yet it can feedback the cultivated realm into reality... Xiao Feng, come here, I have something to tell you."

Shocked at first, Xia Tianming quickly calmed down, furrowing his brows, and gesturing Xia Feng over.

Xia Feng walked over swiftly.

"Grandfather."

"Besides your father and mother, is there a third person who knows about your Dream Realm Cultivation?"

Xia Tianming's expression was very serious, even somewhat frightening.

Even a veteran Martial Artist of the Ninth Layer Sovereign realm feared the Dream Realm Pearl to such an extent, Xia Feng, no matter how foolish, understood Xia Tianming's implications.

"This..."

He touched his chin, showing a thoughtful expression.

"Could there be others!?"

Xia Feng's reaction startled Xia Tianming, who quickly grabbed Xia Feng's shoulders, urgently questioning.

"Who are they? Do they pose a threat to you, is there a possibility of leaking the secret?"

"What is their realm? Are they within Xingyu City!"

This series of questions left Xia Feng somewhat at a loss.

Regarding the Dream Realm Pearl, he indeed hadn't mentioned it to anyone.

However, not saying doesn't mean no one knows.

Xia Feng recalled when the Ten Top Grade Sacred Land Saintesses found him, including later when they told him, they too had entered the Dream Realm with him, becoming true spouses.

In other words, besides his parents, the ten girls he held dear likely also knew this secret.

Seeing his grandfather look as if he wanted to devour anyone knowledgeable of the matter, Xia Feng sighed, then truthfully recounted the events of the past year to him.

Xia Tianming's expression shifted from initial anxiety to calmness, then to contemplation, and finally to helplessness.

"The Ten Top Grade Saintesses vying to be your wives?"

Xia Tianming couldn't help but retort, "You kid really dare to dream, as a Martial Disciple, you dare to have such dreams, now that you're a Half-Emperor, are you going to start fantasizing about the princesses of the Divine Domain?"

"I didn't! I swear this has nothing to do with me!"

Xia Feng raised his right hand, nearly in tears, as he hadn't even known of the Dream Realm Pearl's existence at the time, so how could he have deliberately pulled the Ten Saintesses into the dream?

If there's a culprit, it should be the Dream Realm Pearl, which has nothing to do with him!

"The Ten Top Grade Sacred Lands..."

Seeing Xia Tianming's expression turn somber again, Xia Feng quickly stepped forward to assure.

"Grandfather, you don't need to worry about them, I assure you they won't reveal anything about me!"

"They truly would do anything for me, even if the Dream Realm is virtual, that affection... couldn't be more real."

Xia Feng recalled the day the Ten Saintesses defied sect rules to sneak out to find him.

They shielded him from Cloud Mountain Sect, Cloud Elephant Sect, and even gave him the Supreme Technique.

Not a single one of these girls kept him out of their hearts, and if not for them, Xia Feng would have died in the Cloud Mountain ambush that day.

"You seem so sure? It appears you experienced quite a bit in that dream." Xia Tianming raised an eyebrow, giving him a slightly gossipy look.

Xia Feng's face flushed slightly, and he remained silent.

Though the Ten Top Grade Saintesses remembered the world in the dream, he did not.

Yet, as a pure-hearted young man, being teased by his grandfather like this made him a bit embarrassed.

"Forget it."

Xia Tianming sighed, looking out the window.

"I believe what you say, if you trust them so much, there should be no problem."

"Besides, so much time has already passed, even if they wanted to speak, it would've happened already, and now there's no use going after it."

"Grandfather, you really plan to go to the Top Grade Sacred Land over this?"

Xia Feng was immediately surprised.

"What else?"

Xia Tianming rolled his eyes, then tapped Xia Feng's head.

"If those who know your secret were others from these Top Grade Sacred Lands, I'd be taking a trip today to see who dares to spill the beans."

"But since you said they are your women, and you trust them so much, I'll let this matter rest for now."

"We haven't... we haven't even gotten married yet."

Hearing his grandfather speak this way, Xia Feng couldn't help but blush again.

"Remember my words."

Xia Tianming stood in front of Xia Feng, looking at him with utmost solemnity.

"About the Dream Realm Cultivation, never tell anyone again, no matter who they are."

"Do you understand what a day equals ten thousand years means? I can assure you, the pearl facilitating your cultivation is infinitely more terrifying than the top grade Divine Weapons of the Divine Domain!"

"Having a treasure invites trouble; if others discover you possess such a cultivation method, you'll never have peace again."

"Do you understand?"

Facing Xia Tianming's earnest advice, Xia Feng quickly nodded.

He's not stupid; he had locked this matter deep in his heart from the start, and apart from his closest family, he wouldn't tell anyone.
