When Zhao Yi's imperial carriage arrived at Little Leiyin Temple, Master Miaoyin caught up from Shengjing City and brought two pieces of news for Zhao Yi.

"The first piece of news is about 'spirits' and the Secret Realm," Master Miaoyin said seriously. "I checked some records back at Xuanzhen Temple. The formation of the Secret Realm is linked to 'spirits,' but the specific methods and conditions were destroyed by the Heaven-Facing Sect back in the day, so we can only observe and see how things change."

Zhao Yi was slightly taken aback: "The formation of the Secret Realm is actually related to 'spirits'? Are there that many 'spirits'?"

Excluding the Secret Realms controlled by the sects in the Cultivation Realm, the Four Seas Dragon Race, and the Zhao royal family, Zhao Yi alone held dozens of Secret Realms.

Zhao Yi speculated that the total number of Secret Realms in the entire world should be around one hundred.

If "spirits" are related to the Secret Realms, then it would mean that in the era before the Heaven-Facing Sect, there were at least a hundred "spirits."

A single "spirit" could create dozens of cultivators at the Tier Nine Saint King Realm, adding up to thousands of Tier Nine Saint Kings from a hundred "spirits."

Without the Zhao family's extraordinary "Dragon God Technique," how did the Heaven-Facing Sect overthrow the rule of "spirits" back in the day?

No one could provide Zhao Yi with an answer to this question.

Too much time had passed, and even people from the Heaven-Facing Sect didn't know how their ancestors had created that myth.

"And the second piece of news?" Zhao Yi asked.

Master Miaoyin said, "The second piece of news is about Prince Zhi."

Prince Zhi?

Zhao Yi was momentarily confused: "What do you mean?"

Master Miaoyin explained, "Our ancestor Zhao Xuan examined Prince Zhi's body. Prince Zhi isn't dead; his divine soul was extracted by someone. The Zhao family's bloodline curse couldn't sense his divine soul, so it was concluded that he was dead."

"How is this possible?" Zhao Yi shook his head, "Our ancestors experimented long ago, even over a vast distance, the bloodline curse can clearly sense a clan member's death! If Prince Zhi's divine soul were still in this world, how could it not be sensed..."

As he spoke, Zhao Yi suddenly paused.

He looked at Master Miaoyin, thoughtfully saying, "Are you suggesting that Prince Zhi's divine soul is no longer in this world?"

Master Miaoyin was also stunned, shocked by Zhao Yi's quick reaction. She exclaimed, "I only found out from our ancestor that there is another world beyond ours. How did you know?"

Zhao Yi replied casually, "Didn't I previously withstand a Thunder Tribulation? I noticed it from the Eye of Celestial Tribulation's anomalies."

Zhao Yi didn't explain further, changing the subject: "What did our ancestor say? Since he knows Prince Zhi's divine soul isn't in this world, how can it be retrieved?"

Master Miaoyin shook her head: "Our ancestor said you should find a way."

"Me, find a way?" Zhao Yi was startled, "How could I possibly have a way? I haven't even left this world!"

Master Miaoyin said, "Our ancestor said he hasn't left this world and is unclear about the outside situation. He can't even show himself in this world anymore."

"Our ancestor said that since 'spirits' have appeared, the Eyes of Celestial Destiny and Celestial Tribulation have become active again."

"If our ancestor leaves the Golden Hall, the Eye of Celestial Destiny will immediately target him, forcing him to undergo tribulation. He doesn't have the confidence to withstand the Purple Sky Divine Thunder."

"It's not just our ancestor, the other patriarchs in the Golden Hall are the same. Until the 'Dragon God Technique' is perfected, no one can expose themselves indiscriminately."

At this point, Master Miaoyin looked at Zhao Yi, saying, "Our ancestor said that it all depends on you now. Not only do you need to recover Prince Zhi's divine soul, but you also have to find a way to perfect the 'Dragon God Technique.'"

Zhao Yi's mouth twitched: "Our ancestor certainly has a lot of confidence in me."

After a moment of contemplation, Zhao Yi said, "I have no clue about Prince Zhi's situation for now. I only discovered the anomaly with the Eye of Celestial Tribulation. As for the world of 'spirits,' I know nothing at all. But regarding perfecting the 'Dragon God Technique,' there seems to be an opportunity recently."

Master Miaoyin, upon hearing this, immediately perked up, curiously asking, "What opportunity?"

Zhao Yi gave a mysterious smile: "The secrets of heaven must not be disclosed."

The protagonist is already at the Tier Nine Saint King Realm in cultivation, and the "Dragon God Technique" is about to reach Great Success. Time is running out for him.

If the protagonist doesn't want to go insane, he must perfect the "Dragon God Technique" quickly and break through to the Tier Ten Void Realm.

Otherwise, when he goes mad, he won't be able to care about these things, and death will be the only outcome!

After all, not every member of the Zhao family can be like the old emperor, having an empress who can suppress him entirely and bring him back from madness to clarity.

Normally, when members of the Zhao family start going insane, they become like the former Prince Zhi, losing even the memory of who they are.

The final outcome is either being sealed in ice or dying from an explosive body.

The protagonist is different from those people.

The most basic element of the protagonist's aura is that the image must be "great, glorious, and correct."

Being crazy simply affects the view too much.

Therefore, Zhao Yi speculated that the plot's will would soon create another opportunity for the protagonist to achieve a breakthrough, prompting him to perfect the 'Dragon God Technique' sooner than in the original work.

This is also the opportunity Zhao Yi has long been waiting for!

Seeing Zhao Yi being secretive, Master Miaoyin scoffed: "If you don't want to say, fine, I don't even care!"

After speaking, she asked: "What are you planning to do next? The Empress told me to heed your command. She said you don't need to worry about the matters in the Capital City, just handle the tasks the ancestor assigned. With her overseeing the court, the noble families can't stir up much trouble!"

Zhao Yi nodded, having complete confidence in the Empress's abilities.
