Chapter 822: Templar Realm
As expected, the Venerate had simply unleashed his clone.
And not just any clone, it was the clone of a peak Venerate!
Even an elementary Venerate might not stand a chance against it!
Could there be a genius at the peak of the Eternal who could pass such a test?
He was the only one left.
"I can barely get through using the Supreme Contract," Wang Ye muttered, not wanting to waste it.
Using a life-saving move to obtain a secret treasure seemed a bit excessive.
Since he was essentially opening a mystery box, there was no need to rush.
After all, he had plenty of time.
On the other hand, a year was indeed very short for Qi Qiqi and Nalan Lan.
Fortunately, Nalan Lan had a clear target.
But Fourth Senior Sister...
He would let her try on her own first.
What if she got lucky?
If it didn't work out, he would figure something else out.
He needed to focus on himself first.
Next!
Wang Ye continued to explore the secret treasures.
The tests left by those from ancient times were all of high difficulty.
After all, the ones with lower difficulty would have been claimed long ago.
"Hmm?" Wang Ye suddenly recognized a familiar face.
Venerate Hope.
The pupil of Xin Huo, the strongest expert.
They were family.
He was also an exceptional talent, with abilities even surpassing Flame's. He had also earned the title of the strongest Venerate.
He had entered the Origin Star tens of millions of years ago.
He once made a vow that he would never leave the Origin Star until he became a Supreme!
"People from the Primordial Star should not deceive their people." Wang Ye entered the virtual space again.
Before him, a colorful and dazzling light appeared.
"What is this?" Wang Ye was slightly surprised.
The surroundings were all too familiar.
The ever-changing chaos, the chaotic innate energy, and the disordered high-dimensional heavenly path.
It was filled with an intense aura, evoking a sense of excitement.
A high-dimensional battlefield!
"Survive and find a way out," a clear voice echoed, and Wang Ye instantly imagined a rugged man with a beard.
Wait, no, it was a handsome young man.
Venerate Hope was indeed one of their own.
The high-dimensional battlefield wasn't this walking right into their trap?
But it all seemed too familiar.
However...
"Has Venerate Hope been to the high-dimensional battlefield?" Wang Ye pondered with curiosity.
How did humans manage to enter the high-dimensional battlefield, which had been sealed off by the Sky and Dark races?
He scanned the area cautiously, ready to strike down anyone who crossed his path.
"A way out?" Wang Ye carefully pondered Venerate Hope's words.
Was the test about escaping the high-dimensional battlefield?
It couldn't be that simple, could it?
He knew the way.
"This place doesn't seem like the third realm," Wang Ye observed the high-dimensional battlefield environment and quickly confirmed.
It was fine even if it wasn't his home ground.
During his time on the high-dimensional battlefield mission, he had a detailed understanding of the three great realms and the only passageway.
This information was much richer than what was available in the human cosmic.
"But if it's not the third realm, how do we escape?" Wang Ye pondered.
Outside the first realm was the territory of the Sky race.
The second realm belonged to the Dark Clan.
Only the third realm had an area where the Sky and Dark races intersected... Origin Star.
"Should we go to the third realm first and then come out?" Wang Ye directly dismissed the idea.
That would be too time-consuming.
"Let's take a look around first." Wang Ye quickly began to act.
Not long after, he sensed the aura of a whole team of Sky race.
What a familiar feeling!
Wang Ye activated the sky wheel and a pair of pure white wings appeared on his back. He brushed past a group of heavenly warriors.
No one paid attention to anyone else.
Eh, was it really that simple?
This mission wasn't difficult for a veteran Sky spy like him.
However, Wang Ye knew very well that for other geniuses at the peak of the Eternal, this was practically a ceiling level of difficulty.
As expected, the Venerate's test was to defeat his clone.
However, the test set by Venerate Hope was even higher!
This was because the high-dimensional battlefield had the eight-winged Sky race!
There were also a large number of ordinary six-winged King Crops warriors!
At the very least, they were all High Dimension Lords.
They were basically in groups of five, with tacit cooperation and full combat power.
Once the battle started, it would cause a huge commotion on the battlefield, exposing the target and attracting more heavenly warriors.
Escaping from the hands of the Sky King Corps, who were born with the ability to control spacetime, was difficult.
In just a short while, he had encountered no less than five King Corps teams.
There was no battle.
"This should be the first realm." Wang Ye confirmed the location.
He was also clear about the route to leave, but he hesitated.
Because the distance was very far.
He was neither near the exit nor the third realm.
Instead, it was in the east of the core.
At this position, the one closest to it was... the only passage!
"Could this be the path Venerate Hope pointed out?" Wang Ye thought for a moment and quickly made a decision.
To the only passage!
Although he wasn't too sure.
However, he didn't want to waste so much time going to the exit of the first realm.
If the only passage wasn't the correct answer, he would rather not have Venerate Hope's secret treasure and would search for another one.
There were many mystery boxes.
This fellow was just as unreliable as a Venerable.
The location of the only passage kept changing.
Sometimes it would land in the first realm, other times in the second realm, and occasionally in the third realm.
Wang Ye didn't know the exact pattern.
After all, he was still a first-grade Sky, so he didn't know many of the Sky's secrets.
However, it didn't matter. Through the strength of the special energy and the change in spacetime, it was easy to determine the approximate location of the only passageway.
They arrived successfully!
"What dense chaotic energy..." Wang Ye looked at the only passage from afar.
It was like a chaotic river that contained boundless energy.
Some particles in the river broughte some particles in the river that brought some strange objects from the Primitive Cosmic Sea.
The sparkling light was filled with infinite mysteries.
Could he get out?
Wang Ye wasn't confident.
It would consume a lot of energy.
It could also be destroyed by the only passage.
Or perhaps, he was lost in it.
He could faintly feel a violent aura from the upper reaches of the passage, filled with danger.
The Chaotic Storm would descend at any moment.
"Ding!" A pleasant voice sounded.
Wang Ye was slightly surprised. The spectacular scene of the only passage still remained in front of him, but his body had already disappeared.
In an instant, he returned to the colorful virtual world.
A handsome man appeared in front of him.
His skin was as smooth as jade, and his eyes were clear and bright, shining with confidence and gentleness.
"Congratulations on passing the test." Venerate Hope's slender fingers reached out and handed over a silver dragon-scaled egg.
It was like a pocket-sized egg covered in dragon scales. It was very special.
Wang Ye took it.
The silver dragon-scale egg in his hand still had a warm aura and was filled with intense energy.
Swoosh!
The surrounding environment changed.
Wang Ye exited the virtual space.
The Venerate Hope's statue dimmed, and the illusory space lost its luster.
It meant that the secret treasure had been taken away.
"It's not a Great Path gem treasure, nor is it an ancient gem treasure." Wang Ye looked at the silver dragon-scale egg in his hand.
The feeling that this egg gave him was a little like a fire seed.
It was similar to the energy reaction of the cosmic sea monster that he had killed.
Could it be...
Was this the saint core of another cosmic sea monster?
Wang Ye wondered.
He took out the saint core of the cosmic sea monster he had previously killed and compared it.
The energy was very similar!
Equally full and powerful!
But the types were different.
"Is it a saint core, or an egg of a cosmic sea monster? Or perhaps... something like a fire seed?" Wang Ye wasn't sure.
However, since he already had it, his journey to the secret treasure had come to an end.
"I'll ask the Sage Emperor later. He might know." Wang Ye decided, putting away the silver dragon-scale egg.
As he looked at the dim image of Venerate Hope in the illusory space, his eyes flickered.
He had only read about Venerate Hope in the records of the Primordial Star before, but this time, he had truly encountered the deity.
"Handsome, smart, and ambitious, just like me," Wang Ye thought. He had gained a deeper understanding of Venerate Hope after passing the test.
Venerate Hope had a far-reaching vision, surpassing that of other human powerhouses.
"Survive and find a way out..." Wang Ye mused.
This sentence seemed to be not only a hint for the test but also a message for humanity.
Venerate Hope's answer had pointed to the Primitive Cosmic Sea.
If humanity wanted to break through the blockade and suppression of the Sky race and Dark race, they had to enter the Primitive Cosmic Sea!
In the high-dimensional cosmic, the Sky race and the Dark race were unbeatable.
When any human surpassed the strongest expert...
It meant their demise.
...
"You found the secret treasure!" Qi Qiqi exclaimed, her eyes wide with disbelief.
As soon as she emerged from the virtual space, she saw Wang Ye waiting for her outside.
"Yes." Wang Ye confirmed, looking at her. "Did you fail again?"
"Yeah, it's so frustrating!" Qi Qiqi pouted. "I don't want to talk about it. I'm going to find the next one!"
"Don't act impulsively," Wang Ye advised. "Let's meet up with Nalan Lan first. We can help each other out."
"What do you mean?" Qi Qiqi asked.
Wang Ye explained Nalan Lan's plan to her.
"Ah, I see!" Qi Qiqi nodded, suddenly realizing. "Why didn't I think of that? I'll go find her now!"
Wang Ye stopped her in her tracks. "Wait a moment. Let's meet up with Nalan Lan first. Working together will be more efficient."
"But isn't only one person allowed to enter?" Qi Qiqi questioned.
"The mission won't change," Wang Ye explained. "You can share your experiences, discuss the specific tasks, and see if they suit you. It'll save a lot of time and effort."
"When you encounter tasks that require thinking, you won't have to waste time," Wang Ye explained.
"By taking turns, efficiency doubles."
"You're right!" Qi Qiqi's eyes lit up. Then she shot him a glare. "You're clever. Are you implying that I'm stupid?"
"No, I'm not," Wang Ye replied innocently.
"Let's go!" Qi Qiqi rushed out.
"Do you know where Nalan Lan is?" Wang Ye asked, pulling her back.
"I don't know," Qi Qiqi said confidently.
"Follow me," Wang Ye sighed, leading the way.
It wasn't difficult to find her.
The Sanctuary Realm wasn't vast.
The three of them quickly reunited.
Wang Ye explained his plan to his senior sisters in detail.
After making the necessary arrangements, he left.
That was all he could do for now.
Whether or not they could obtain the secret treasure depended on their abilities and opportunities.
They only could do their best and leave the rest to fate.
As for himself...
"I'm here," Wang Ye said, gazing at the towering Tinder Tower in the Human Sanctuary amidst the chaos.
Step by step, he approached, feeling the majestic atmosphere.
The pinnacle of the Tinder Tower in the Human Sanctuary was even more dazzling.
He was ready to reach the summit and see what the strongest expert, Xin Huo, had left behind!
