Chapter 40: Ancient Secrets of the Continent
After all, Qingyun Sect's alchemy technique has extremely high requirements for talent and medicinal herbs, and it is difficult to promote it in the family. It is also too powerful and much more precious than Tang San's hidden weapon.

Once discovered, even the King of Gods would be unable to sit still. After all, the elixir that was made could have a huge effect on the King of Gods and the God of Creation, and could greatly change the existing structure of the God Realm.

"Okay! No problem, but my family has been in retreat since 15,000 years ago, so I can only tell you about the past. Let me start with myself!"

Huangfu Ruiyao would not tell anyone about his family's core secrets, but he would tell them all about the secrets of other hidden families.

"I come from the Huangfu family, which is indeed a hidden force. My family martial spirit is the Five Elements Qilin. I am 17 years old this year and have innate full soul power. My father is a level 1, and I have two uncles, who are level 95 and 92 respectively. The ancestor of the family created a god position 91 years ago and achieved a first-level deity: the Five Elements Qilin Sword God!"

"The God Ancestor left behind two secret realms, one large and one small, for future generations to take refuge in and also as a place of inheritance. The small secret realm is the one we went to today, and the large secret realm is where my family lives now."

"There is a barrier around the Great Secret Realm. Anyone who enters cannot come out at will. The barrier will only crack once every 10 years, allowing 50 people below level 10 to go out and be randomly teleported out together. Those who enter below level 60 can only go out for ten days, otherwise they will be forced to return."

"If you want to break the barrier and enter and exit freely, you must rely on the magical object left by the ancestor. (PS: Breaking the barrier here does not mean damaging the barrier, but it is equivalent to a key that can open and close the barrier freely)
The sacred objects require secret family rituals and training, which takes decades before they can be used.

Originally, there were two sacred objects in the family. One was already sacrificed and carried by the clan leader. The other was left untouched in the small secret realm as a spare key."

"The God Ancestor's planning has always been correct. The purpose of setting up the barrier is to prevent enemy invasion and allow the family to unite as one and have the courage to fight to the death when facing external crises."

"But no matter how much we planned, we never expected that the family would be in turmoil and disintegrate from within. Fifteen thousand years ago, the family split into two branches. The two sides fought for years and ended up with both sides losing. The divine object that we had prepared for the sacrifice was also broken, and the treasure map that opened the small secret realm was also lost. In the end, we were ambushed by foreign tribes and the entire army was wiped out. Only a few members of the family were left, and they managed to escape by hiding in the secret realm."

"In order to get out, the family sent people to look for it every ten years. It took more than 1 years, but it was not found until now."

“I was injured not long ago, and was teleported to the cave of a titled strongman. I sensed the treasure and became greedy, so I started looking for it, wanting to take it away to see if I could heal my mother.

Because of this, I didn't leave in time. I was discovered before I got the treasure and was hunted down by a Titled Douluo. All five people from my family who followed me died. I really deserve to die!" Huangfu Ruiyao lowered his head in guilt.

"By the way, do you know who that Titled Douluo is? He lives in a cave with a very deep lake inside. His beard and hair are green, and his martial spirit is a snake."

"Ah! Well, the Title Douluo you met should be Dugu Bo, titled Poison, with a soul power of level 91. However, in a few years, his soul power may increase very quickly."

Zhuang Xingyu was stunned at this moment. Is the world so small?
Could it be that Huangfu Ruiyao took the blame for himself?

This statement is wrong!

After all, if Huangfu Ruiyao had not been greedy, if he had not spent time looking for treasures, and had left in time, there would have been no casualties. Also, the random teleportation function of their barrier was quite tricky.

But Huangfu Ruiyao was looking for the treasure in order to save her mother. Filial piety is the most important virtue, so it cannot be said that her behavior was wrong.

Dugu Bo saw that the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire were gone, and faced with the outsiders who suddenly appeared in the cave, he was angry and refused to listen to their explanation, so this matter was somewhat related to Zhuang Xinyu. But, [If Zhuang Xingyu did not take the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire, would Huangfu Ruiyao, who saw the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire, be able to resist the temptation and leave in time? ]

Everyone knows Dugu Bo's personality. When faced with outsiders who suddenly appeared in his cave and saw his secret treasure land, would he be in a good mood? Would he let the six soul masters leave?
[So no matter whether Zhuang Xingyu takes the Ice and Fire Nights or not, Huangfu Ruiyao and the others will be hunted down by Dugu Bo.]

But if Zhuang Xingyu had not taken the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire, Huangfu Ruiyao and Zhuang Xingyu would not have met, Huangfu Ruiyao would not have been able to find the family's sacred object, and would not have obtained the elixir to treat her mother.

Ah! Zhuang Xingyu was confused.

Zhuang Xingyu thought to himself: "Forget it, don't think about it, I won't get involved in this matter, it really has nothing to do with me, let it go!"

Huangfu Ruiyao paused, and after recovering, he continued, "We, the hidden families, know each other a little bit. In addition to our Huangfu family, there is another hidden family: the Dongfang family. Their martial soul Xuanba Ding seems to have one level 1 and one level 95 in their current generation."

"The Dongfang family does not have a secret realm. They live in a sparsely populated giant valley in the eastern part of the continent. It is covered with smoke all year round. I heard they call it a natural smoke formation. Outsiders cannot enter. But as far as I know, they have the idea of ​​entering the world recently."

"The reason for his seclusion seems to be to practice something, but I don't know what it is. Among the younger generation, there is a person with a talent similar to mine."

"Then, Lu Yuangu's secret does exist. In ancient times, the cultivation system of Douluo Continent was not soul ring cultivation. Before that, there were two cultivation systems."

"One is physical training, which is to polish the body, devour monsters, and gradually strengthen oneself. The other is soul guide civilization, which is to use external objects to arm oneself."

"These two systems developed in parallel at the time. Later, someone discovered the spirit ring cultivation system. People found that the spirit ring cultivation system was easier and faster, so the fittest survived and the two cultivation systems were gradually abandoned. There is no conspiracy theory or anything like that."

Zhuang Xingyu sighed, "I think those two cultivation systems are actually very powerful. After all, the drawbacks of the spirit ring cultivation system have already been revealed: there are not enough spirit beasts. It would be best if these three cultivation systems develop in parallel and complement each other. Only when a hundred flowers bloom can everyone in Douluo Continent be as powerful as a dragon."

Huangfu Ruiyao took out a piece of paper and a pen from his storage ring and said, "These two cultivation systems have been lost, but my family has recorded some valuable things and some clues. I'll write them down for you later."

"After all this, we've known each other for quite some time. Why don't you tell me your true identity?"

Upon hearing this, Zhuang Xingyu took out a jar of good wine, a stove, warmed up the wine, and handed a glass to Huangfu Ruiyao.

"Haha, I will definitely tell you. You've told me so many secrets, so I naturally have to tell you about the current situation on the mainland. Let's have a [Talk about Heroes Over Wine] tonight!"
