"Master, this time many experts from our Demon Capital are coming, including a batch at the Heavenly Immortal level. You should be careful, don't let my kindred simply roam outside. If they leak their auras and attract the attention of those powerful experts from our Demon Capital, it could be disadvantageous for you. Because it's very easy for members of our Demon Race to sense each other's auras."
The Heart Devourer, currently in seclusion healing its injuries, suddenly sent a voice transmission to Ye Yunfei.
"So, your Demon Capital has sent many Heavenly Immortal experts preparing to explore and seek treasures in the Void Secret Realm?" Ye Yunfei asked.
"Yes, our Demon Capital takes the opening of this Void Secret Realm quite seriously, so they've dispatched many Golden Immortal and Heavenly Immortal-level experts to participate in this exploration."
The Heart Devourer replied.
"Alright, don't worry, I'll be careful," Ye Yunfei nodded.
"The Void Secret Realm opens in two days. I'll wander around a bit and then go in."
Ye Yunfei walked through the Tiange World Cluster, observing everywhere. With his current movement speed within a world cluster, getting anywhere was extremely fast. Traveling from one world to another could be accomplished in just a moment.
"Have you heard the news? There's a gathering in the Changqing World. I hear many young talents will be attending. The Changqing World is very close to the entrance and exit of the Void Secret Realm. Why don't we go join this gathering and see the demeanor of those young talents from different places across the Chaotic Void Sea? When the Void Secret Realm opens, we can enter it from near the Changqing World. It's very convenient."
"I heard this gathering was organized by Shangguan Wan of the Thousand Moon Villa. Her influence is very strong, so surely many famous young prodigies will attend."
"I heard Song Qianli, Tang Sanfeng, Dongfang Shi, Yin Sanshao, Pang Xuan, as well as the Demon Prince from the Demon Capital, the Demon Crown Prince from the Demon Metropolis, and others are all likely to appear at this gathering."
"I even heard that a young prodigy from the Earth Concealment Gate will also attend. The Earth Concealment Gate has secluded itself from the world for a very long time. I thought this Geomancy-focused power had perished, but unexpectedly it has emerged again."
...
In a certain world, Ye Yunfei was walking when he suddenly heard over a dozen young beings discussing as they hurried along nearby.
"Oh, a gathering of young talents?"
Listening to their discussion, Ye Yunfei felt his interest stir.
What interested Ye Yunfei most was that the Earth Concealment Gate was actually a force primarily composed of Geomancers.
Ye Yunfei himself was a Geomancer, but within the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds, the number of Geomancers was extremely scarce. Even if there were any, they were likely one or two remaining from ancient times. Since entering the Chaotic Void Sea, Ye Yunfei had basically never encountered a Geomancer. So, he estimated that even across the entire Chaotic Void Sea, Geomancers were probably very rare.
"Senior, have you heard of the Earth Concealment Gate?" Ye Yunfei suddenly thought of the Remnant Soul. If the Earth Concealment Gate was an ancient power, this Remnant Soul would likely know about it, as it was an ancient being itself.
"Of course I know of the Earth Concealment Gate. It is a power primarily consisting of Geomancers. All members of this power cultivate Geomancy Technique. One could say that almost all Geomancy Technique in the Chaotic Void Sea originated from and spread from this great power. The Earth Concealment Gate is also a very mysterious and low-key power. Under normal circumstances, they act with great discretion and rarely participate in the various conflicts of the Chaotic Void Sea. Only occasionally do experts who have emerged from this power travel within the Chaotic Void Sea.
It is said that many of the famous perilous and deadly lands in the Chaotic Void Sea were laid out by experts from the Earth Concealment Gate.
In truth, I know very little about this power because I've seldom interacted with its members. What I know are mostly things heard through rumor and hearsay."
The Remnant Soul replied.
'Almost all Geomancy Technique in the Chaotic Void Sea originated from this power?'
Ye Yunfei was a bit shocked upon hearing the Remnant Soul's words. Ye Yunfei himself had also cultivated Geomancy Technique. Did that mean the Geomancy Technique he cultivated also originated from and spread from the Earth Concealment Gate?
At that moment, the dozen or so young beings nearby gradually moved farther away. But Ye Yunfei's perception ability was extremely powerful, so he could still hear their discussions clearly.
"The Earth Concealment Gate is an immensely ancient and enduring force, its overall strength is very powerful. Such a force wouldn't perish so easily. It's just that most members of this power are very low-key, preferring reclusion and having little contact with the outside world. That's why people seldom see them."
"Let's hurry and go see. This gathering has assembled so many famous young prodigies; it must be very exciting. It'll be good for us to broaden our horizons."
...
A short while later, that dozen or so young beings had moved far from Ye Yunfei's position, and only then did Ye Yunfei stop hearing their discussions.
"Since I'm at leisure with nothing else to do, I'll go take a look too. If there's a chance, I'll communicate with people from the Earth Concealment Gate and see what level their Geomancy Technique is at."
After thinking, Ye Yunfei opened his mouth and spoke.
After learning of a power like the Earth Concealment Gate, Ye Yunfei was extremely interested. His own current level of Geomancy Technique had somewhat stagnated, lacking any major breakthroughs. If he had a chance to witness the Geomancy Technique of the Earth Concealment Gate, it might be helpful.
"It's fine to go take a look. Go see what level of strength those young prodigies across the Chaotic Void Sea possess. It might trigger something for you. Moreover, the Shangqing World is relatively close to the entrance and exit of the Void Secret Realm. In two days when the Void Secret Realm opens, you can reach it conveniently."
The Remnant Soul said. It was relatively familiar with the Tiange World Cluster.
"Alright, I'll head to the Shangqing World now."
Ye Yunfei nodded. Then, Ye Yunfei began heading towards the direction of the Shangqing World. The Remnant Soul was relatively familiar with the Tiange World Cluster, so naturally it knew the specific location of the Shangqing World.
After about half a day, Ye Yunfei arrived at the Shangqing World.
After entering the Shangqing World, Ye Yunfei indeed saw a large number of young beings gathering within this world. Not long after, Ye Yunfei found the location of the gathering.
It was within a massive city suspended in mid-air!
Ye Yunfei could tell with one glance that this city was actually a spatial treasure, somewhat similar to the Phantom Tower.
The interior of the city contained profound time and space laws, making it extremely spacious.
Many young beings continuously streamed into the city.
Ye Yunfei also followed into the city.
He saw feasting tables everywhere, laden with various precious fruits, Immortal Tea, and Immortal Wine. Many young waitresses with graceful figures shuttled through the crowd, guiding newly arrived young beings to their seats.
The young beings entering the city needed no verification of identity; they could move about freely and could also casually find a table to sit at for tea and wine.
Every table was laden with all kinds of precious foods. These foods were not only delicious but also contained massive energy, which could be treated as a cultivation resource. Quite a few young beings, after entering the city, set aside their inhibitions and ate and drank heartily.
"Who would have thought Thousand Moon Villa would be so generous and lavish, bringing out so many precious delicacies to entertain everyone. This trip is truly not in vain!"
Many young beings couldn't help but exclaim.
Ye Yunfei released his Soul Power energy and soon perceived that at the central location of the city, there was a huge plaza. Within the plaza gathered a large group of young talents with sharp auras. It could be seen that only young talents with relatively strong strength were qualified to enter this plaza.
"Look! That's Shangguan Wan of the Thousand Moon Villa. She's indeed as beautiful as legend says!"
"This gathering was organized at her behest; all expenses for the gathering are borne by her! Not only is she beautiful, but also generous, philanthropic, and benevolent, truly worthy of being a great beauty renowned throughout the Chaotic Void Sea!"
Many people looked at a gracious and poised, beautiful woman within the plaza and praised in low voices.
"That young talent in the golden robe is Dongfang Shi from the Heavenly God Hall! I heard he recently broke through to Advanced Heavenly Immortal! So enviable, being so young and already an Advanced Heavenly Immortal! Truly worthy of being a top-ranked young prodigy in the Chaotic Void Sea! In my opinion, at this gathering, Dongfang Shi's strength can absolutely rank among the top three!"
Someone quietly pointed at a young man in a golden robe within the plaza and said in a low voice, his tone full of envy.
"Oh? That's the young genius of the Heavenly God Hall? Indeed quite strong."
Hearing the surrounding discussion, Ye Yunfei couldn't help but look towards that golden-robed young man, thinking to himself.
At such an age, he was already an Advanced Heavenly Immortal, truly worthy of being called a prodigy.
Ye Yunfei had previously had a conflict with people from the Heavenly God Hall, so he paid closer attention to this power.
"That should be Pang Xuan from the Shangqing Sect, right? Even though he's only an Intermediate Heavenly Immortal, his energy aura is in no way weaker than Dongfang Shi!"
"Look! That being enveloped in death aura should be Yin Sanshao from the Great Netherworld! I hear he holds a very high position in the Great Netherworld, has a great personage backing him, and is one of the prodigies key to fostering in the Great Netherworld!"
"The Demon Capital actually sent two Demon Princes! The Demon Metropolis sent a Demon Crown Prince!"
...
The plaza in the central location of the city had become the focal point of the entire city, so all young beings attending the gathering were focusing on those young prodigies within the plaza.
It could be said that all young beings allowed to enter that plaza were celebrated young talents renowned across various regions.
"Which one is the young talent from the Earth Concealment Gate?"
As soon as Ye Yunfei entered the city, he immediately released his Soul Power energy to perceive.
The young talent from the Earth Concealment Gate cultivated Geomancy Technique; there would surely be a rich, earthly-energy aura emanating from them.
Soon, Ye Yunfei's Soul Power energy locked onto a young man wearing a yellow robe within that central city plaza.
Because that young man was emanating an extremely rich earth-energy aura!
"This should be the young talent from the Earth Concealment Gate."
Ye Yunfei perceived that young man and inwardly said.
"Judging by the earth-energy aura he exudes, his Geomancy Technique level is mostly above mine. It's just not known how much stronger he is."
Ye Yunfei quietly observed the yellow-robed young man.
"This must be Brother Dongguo! I hear Brother Dongguo is a young prodigy of the Earth Concealment Gate. Seeing you today, meeting truly surpasses hearing!"
At that moment, suddenly two young men holding wine cups walked up to the yellow-robed man. The taller one walking in front spoke warmly.
"Well said, well said. May I ask your distinguished names?"
The yellow-robed man inquired.
Anyone able to enter this plaza was no ordinary character, so this yellow-robed man didn't put on airs, appearing relatively approachable.
"Hehe, Brother Dongguo, we are both disciples of the Zhan Family. We admire your elegant demeanor and have come specifically to offer a toast."
The tall young man smiled and said.
"Beast Taming Clan Zhan Family?"
The yellow-robed man thought for a moment, then asked.
"Indeed. We did not expect Brother Dongguo to also know of our Zhan Family."
The tall young man nodded. Though appearing very humble, a trace of pride could be discerned deep in his gaze.
The Beast Taming Clan Zhan Family was immensely famous across the Chaotic Void Sea, with very great influence.
"Brother Zhan, you jest. I am Zhan Qing."
The tall young man introduced himself.
"This is my cousin, Zhan Yuan."
The tall young man pointed at a man following behind him.
"So that's Zhan Yuan!"
Ye Yunfei was somewhat surprised. His gaze immediately turned towards the man named Zhan Yuan.
Earlier, Xiao Huanhuan and Xiao Yueyue had said that a man named Zhan Yuan paid the Black Wind Group to capture the two sisters.
He hadn't expected Zhan Yuan to be right there in that plaza.
"Perfect Golden Immortal of the Ninety-Nine Returns to Perfection Immortal level. Average."
Ye Yunfei sensed Zhan Yuan's energy aura and inwardly commented.
"So you are Zhan Qing of the Zhan Family! Long esteemed, long esteemed!"
The yellow-robed man was somewhat startled and immediately stood up, warmly inviting Zhan Qing to sit.
It turned out this Zhan Qing was a famous young prodigy of the Beast Taming Clan Zhan Family, a core disciple key to family fostering.
"Hehe, Brother Dongguo, please don't stand on ceremony."
Zhan Qing, bringing Zhan Yuan, sat down beside the yellow-robed man, starting to converse.
"Brother Dongguo, on behalf of our Zhan Family, I wish to ask you to find time to make a trip to our Zhan Family, to help our family headquarters arrange several perilous and deadly lands, to strengthen the defensive capabilities of our family headquarters.
Of course, as long as Brother Dongguo is willing to help, the remuneration our Zhan Family provides will surely not disappoint Brother Dongguo."
Zhan Qing soon stated his purpose in approaching the yellow-robed man.
"Do you see? People of the Earth Concealment Gate excel in Geomancy Technique, capable of arranging all kinds of perilous and deadly lands. They are very popular across the Chaotic Void Sea; frequently many major powers invite experts of the Earth Concealment Gate to go and help arrange such things."
The Remnant Soul suddenly sent a voice transmission to Ye Yunfei.
"Indeed. People of the Earth Concealment Gate excel at Geomancy Technique. The perilous and deadly lands they arrange are bound to be extremely powerful in potency, so it's not strange they are popular.
It's like high-level formation masters; no matter which world, they will be very popular."
Hearing this, Ye Yunfei nodded.
"You're paying such close attention to people from the Earth Concealment Gate; are you perhaps also researching Geomancy Technique?"
The Remnant Soul asked curiously.
"Yes, Senior. To be frank with you, I do have certain attainments in Geomancy Technique."
Ye Yunfei replied.
"You kid, seems like you can do anything!"
The Remnant Soul exclaimed.
