I have an Apocalypse City Chapter 1525

Chapter 1525: Chapter 1527 Legendary Realm Chapter 1525: Chapter 1527 Legendary Realm In front of the main hall of the Imperial Sword Sect's main peak, nearly all the peak masters and elders were looking toward the square. At that moment, in the center of the square, a crimson gate of light appeared, through which the disciples of the Imperial Sword Sect were pushed out one after another.

“We've left, we've finally left, haha, we're back!” A disciple of the Imperial Sword Sect, overwhelmed with joy, fell to his knees in the square and let out a long, skyward howl.

“Haha, I'm back, I'm back, finally no need to fight as cannon fodder against the other races!”

“Imperial Sword Sect, I have returned alive!”

One after another, the disciples of the Imperial Sword Sect emerged from the gate of light, and upon seeing them, joyous expressions spread across the faces of all the peak masters and elders, who silently watched them. Even as they carried on wildly in front of the main peak's main hall, no one spoke out to stop them, allowing them to vent their emotions.

After a long while, no more disciples emerged from the gate, and the Sect Leader Duan Xingliu's brows furrowed.

“Sect Leader, it seems that one of the favored disciples has not come out,” a nearby elder said in a low voice.

Duan Xingliu didn't reply but simply directed his gaze toward the light gate.

“Only a third of the disciples have returned this time, and the rest will probably need to rest for over half a year just to regain their senses…” another elder said, shaking his head.

Just then, among the returned disciples, one's aura suddenly surged, breaking through directly to the Legendary Realm.

“He's advanced!” everyone exclaimed, looking toward that disciple, who was holding three beads in his hand. He swallowed them one by one, instantly leaping from the peak of third-rank combat power to the Legendary Realm. Simultaneously, a scorching wave of air radiated from him.

Flame Domain!

This disciple had mastered the Flame Domain, becoming a Legendary Realm powerhouse!

“Battle Sword Peak disciple Guo Lintian, today I enter the Legendary Realm!” another disciple shouted, clutching two beads and rising into the air, a powerful aura emanating from him!

Boom~
The Legendary Realm, yet another disciple had broken through!

“Promotion Pearl!” said a peak master with a smile.

The reason so many disciples below the Legendary Realm were allowed to enter the Bloody Arena was partly to enhance their combat abilities and partly to earn honors in the early stages of the Starry Sky Battlefield, exchanging them for Promotion Pearls, then leaving before danger could strike.

However, this secret realm journey seemed to have gone awry, as the timeline became chaotic, and they were unwittingly thrown into the late stages of the Starry Sky Battlefield, during the period of surprise attacks by the Starry Sky All Races. Thankfully, these disciples had all left before the attacks; otherwise, they would have all been wiped out, turning this opening of the Starry Sky Ten Thousand Races Secret Realm into a massive loss!

One by one, disciples were promoted to the Legendary Realm, and almost all of those who had returned alive had advanced to the Legendary Realm.

“Guo Xiao, did you not exchange for any Promotion Pearls?” an elder from Feilai Peak asked, eyeing Guo Xiao with a frown. Almost all the disciples had exchanged for several Promotion Pearls, boosting their strength to the Legendary Realm, yet Guo Xiao and a few others had not. This puzzled the elder from Feilai Peak.

After all, Guo Xiao was the chief disciple of Feilai Peak. With his strength, how could he have returned from the secret realm empty-handed?

“Elder, I do not have enough merits to exchange for a Promotion Pearl!” Guo Xiao performed a respectful salutation and said, “Breaking through to the Legendary Realm is not a difficult task for me, and I don't need to use external items to enhance myself!”

“Guo Xiao, you mean to say, you've exchanged for some other item?” The Elder's heart stirred, and he hurriedly pressed on.

“Indeed, I've exchanged for a sword technique!” Guo Xiao declared.

The Elder burst into hearty laughter, “Very well, having gained something is good enough!”

Some other peak masters and elders cast their eyes toward Guo Xiao. A sword technique that caught Guo Xiao's attention surely was of high quality. While some wanted to ask what sword technique he'd exchanged for, they hesitated briefly and then shook their heads, giving up the idea. That was Guo Xiao's own fortune and privacy. The sword technique might become Guo Xiao's skill of last resort, and even if asked, it was unlikely that Guo Xiao would disclose it.

“Xin Ling, why hasn't your eldest senior brother emerged?” Duan Xingliu couldn't help but ask.

Disciples who had previously died early in the secret realm had already come out. Now that the allotted time had ended and the disciples were returning, Song Jian had not come back, which made Duan Xingliu feel both nervous and worried.

“Senior Brother Song seemed to have received a task and gained the qualification to enter the Bloody Arena. Afterward, he went into the Bloody Arena, and we didn't wait for him to return as we were kicked out of the secret realm. Now, he should still be in the Bloody Arena…” Xin Ling explained meticulously.

“What? The Bloody Arena? How could he enter the Bloody Arena? That only appears in the middle to the latter stages of the Starry Sky Battlefield. You…” one of the peak masters exclaimed in shock.

“Master, this time we almost got annihilated. There was a problem with the timeline in the secret realm. When we entered the Starry Sky Battlefield, it clearly was the early stages, but after a few months, it inexplicably progressed to the middle and later stages. Only a few months remained before the other races launched an earth attack and wiped out the Starry Sky Battlefield's human strongholds. We were almost dragged into it…” A returning disciple couldn't hold back and spoke, his face filled with a look of lingering fear.

“What? A surprise attack on the human strongholds? How could that happen? That is something that's supposed to take place tens of thousands of years after the early stage of the Starry Sky Battlefield. How could the timeline skip so far…”

“It's not entirely impossible. In theory, it's feasible. The secret realm captures the entire period of the Starry Sky Battlefield, which naturally includes the stealth attack on the human strongholds and the final annihilation of the Starry Sky All Races by the humans. It's just that the resources we used to open the secret realm couldn't possibly last that period…”

The peak masters and elders began discussing among themselves. The disordered timeline had them feeling a sense of crisis, and Song Jian's entry into the Bloody Arena was beyond their expectations.

“Master, what is the Bloody Arena?” A disciple stealthily asked his own master.

“The Bloody Arena represents both a great opportunity and a great crisis, even demi-god level powerhouses risk falling there…”

The elders of the Imperial Sword Sect seemed to be quite familiar with the Bloody Arena. Hearing that Song Jian had entered it, they all frowned and shook their heads with worry.

“Did Song Jian make a breakthrough to the Legendary Realm in the secret realm?” a peak master could not help but ask.

It was known that breaking through to the Legendary Realm within the secret realm was impossible, which is why so many disciples, upon obtaining a Promotion Pearl, chose to leave the secret realm before attempting to upgrade.

However, there are never absolutes in the world. There have been historical instances where disciples did break through to the Legendary Realm within the secret realm. But such breakthroughs were a false type of breakthrough. Although within the secret realm, after breaking through, there was no difference from a real Legendary Realm, once leaving the secret realm and returning to the real world, the disciple's mental state suffered an impact, taking over a year to recover.

Furthermore, breaking through within the secret realm also formed an inner demon, like a chasm blocking the disciple's path to becoming a Legendary powerhouse. Until death, this disciple remained just a disciple with the pinnacle strength of third-order combat power.

After this incident, the Imperial Sword Sect strictly prohibited disciples from breaking through within the secret realm, forbidding any breakthrough even if they chanced upon the opportunity!
