Chapter 1604 A Realm within a Realm

Seeing three ancient immortal treasures at once, Dugu Yin and Zhu Xiu Gu both showed surprise, but soon Zhu Xiu Gu frowned and said, "There are four of us including Fellow Daoist Wen, and there are only three immortal treasures here, even if the quality is not divided. How should we distribute them?"

"Yes, there are too many people and too little porridge. Brother Xiao, do you have any suggestions?" Dugu Yin was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then threw this difficult problem to Xiao Lin.

Xiao Lin couldn't help but criticize Dugu Yin in his heart. He guessed Dugu Yin's purpose at once, so he said, "Brother Wen is repairing the teleportation array at the moment, but we can't take the treasures for ourselves. How about this, Brother Dugu keeps the treasures we found temporarily, and after we return to the teleportation hall, we can discuss how to distribute them together?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Xiu Gu glanced at Du Gu Yin with her eyes rolling, and then said with a smile: "Haha, since Daoist Xiao said so, Xiu Gu naturally has no objection, so let's deal with it this way."

Zhu Xiu'gu was also very smart and naturally understood that Xiao Lin was doing Dugu Yin a great favor. However, at the moment, this was the best solution and she naturally had no reason to refuse.

Besides, Dugu Yin has been her good friend for many years, so he would not resort to any tricks just for a few ancient fairy treasures.

Upon hearing this, Dugu Yin, after making a few more excuses, just went with the flow and cast a spell to open the restrictions covering the three ancient fairy treasures and put the three ancient fairy treasures away.

There are ancient fairy treasures on these four floors. I wonder what surprises there will be on the top five floors?

The three of them explored the fourth floor and found nothing else, so they immediately walked up the stairs to the fifth floor. However, at the entrance of the fifth floor, they saw a wooden door carved with ancient patterns. Dugu Yin pushed it casually, and the ancient patterns on the wooden door lit up, and he was forced to take a step back by an astonishing force.

"Restricted?"

The three of them were a little surprised. The Lost City had disappeared for countless years. Even if the restrictions originally set up by Gubaozhai were ineffective, they should have been ineffective. However, the restrictions here were still there, which was enough to show how magical the restrictions were.

However, this did not stump Dugu Yin. After observing it carefully, he nodded confidently, then pinched his fingers to make a spell, and his hands moved like a dream, sending out streams of pure magic power, which were accurately injected into those runes.

As magical powers were injected, the patterns on the entire wooden door lit up one after another, and phantoms flashed and emerged from the door.

"I didn't expect that Brother Dugu also knew the Wood Grain Immortal Ban. Wasn't this ban lost long ago?" Zhu Xiu'gu looked at Dugu Yin's method of breaking the ban and couldn't help but reveal a surprised expression and spoke.

This [Wood Grain Immortal Ban] is not some amazing magical skill, it is just a method to break the ban, and it is only effective against wood-type array pattern bans. It is a coincidence that thousands of years ago, Dugu Yin bought a beast skin scroll with ancient characters in an underground auction house. These ancient characters are obscure and difficult to understand. To fully comprehend them, one needs opportunity and strong understanding. Although the owner of the beast skin scroll knew that this was a method to break the ban, he did not want to spend too much effort on it, so he put it on the auction house.

Dugu Yin happened to take a picture of it. Originally, he just wanted to use it to familiarize himself with the wood-related restrictions and never thought it would come in handy. Today, when he saw the patterns on the wooden door, he was inspired and unexpectedly found the right way.

Dugu Yin explained to the two of them with a smile as he lifted the ban.

"I see." Upon hearing this, Xiao Lin and Zhu Xiu'gu also showed expressions of realization, and at the same time, they were secretly glad for their luck.

Although Xiao Lin was not proficient in this kind of restrictions, with Xiao Hei's ability to break restrictions, no matter how powerful the restrictions were, they would not be difficult for him. Therefore, he had not studied the method of lifting the restrictions for nearly a thousand years. It was just that he did not want to expose Xiao Hei's trump card unless it was absolutely necessary.

About half an hour later, with the injection of the last seal, the spiritual light on the wooden door suddenly retracted, and then accompanied by the sound of "branch", the wooden door opened, and at the same time a large amount of dust spread out.

Dugu Yin waved his sleeves to sweep away the dust, and the three of them walked into the fifth floor one after the other.

As soon as they entered the fifth floor, the three of them saw a scene that astonished them. In front of them were beams of crisscrossing golden light, so dense that they almost formed a web of light. Behind the golden web of light, they could vaguely see a vortex of snow-white light.

Seeing the swirl of white light, Xiao Lin was slightly stunned and felt a little confused.

When Dugu Yin saw Guang Xuan, he showed a look of surprise, and Zhu Xiu Gu next to him was even more delighted.

"Sure enough, I didn't expect that there really is an alternate dimension. It seems that the legend is true. There is usually an alternate dimension inside the main hall of Gubaozhai, which stores many rare treasures of Gubaozhai. They are basically high-level materials, fairy treasures, talismans, etc. If we can enter it, isn't it a chance?" Zhu Xiu'gu said with a smile.

Dugu Yin also nodded: "And the Holy Sun Order is very likely in this different dimension. I originally thought it was just a legend, but I didn't expect it to be true. Moreover, the ban is still there, and it is obvious that no one has entered it yet."

After hearing this, Xiao Lin understood why the two were so surprised. It turned out that the light vortex behind the golden light net led to an alternate dimension. Normally, such an alternate dimension would be opened up by some large sects as a place for retreat, but for many businesses, they would use it as a secret warehouse to store some precious treasures in the business.

The main advantage of this kind of different-dimensional space is that it is safe and secretive. Through some spatial magical powers, the entrance can be completely covered up, and multiple restrictions can be set up at the entrance. Unless one obtains a ban-releasing card, it is impossible to enter.

If you break the ban by force, it is likely to cause space collapse. Not only will you not be able to obtain the treasure, but you may also face great danger.

Of course, spatial instability is also a defect of this kind of alien space. Once the space collapses, not only will the space collapse, but even the treasures stored in it will be lost in the void of the universe and disappear without a trace.

Therefore, many sects will not use the other-dimensional space to store sect treasures, but use it as a place for retreat and hard practice. However, it is different for those trading companies. They will store some of the treasures in it for easy access.

The three of them were extremely lucky as they actually came across Gubaozhai, which had an alternate dimension.

"This should be the Ten Thousand Gold Immortal Forbidden Technique among the Nine Divine Forbidden Techniques, right? It seems that I have to trouble Fairy Huoying this time." Dugu Yin glanced at Zhu Xiu'gu, then cast his gaze on the golden light net and spoke.

Zhu Xiu'gu frowned slightly, but still nodded, walked to the front of the light net, then slowly stretched out her right hand. A ball of orange-red flame appeared on her slender and white palm. The flame rose up, and after flying to a height of about a foot, it immediately spread out and instantly turned into a raging flame, burning on the golden light net.

As the flames burned, an astonishingly hot breath spread.

Xiao Lin couldn't help but take a half step back, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"Could this be the innate pure immortal flame?" Xiao Lin asked.

"Brother Xiao has really good eyesight. He was able to recognize that the Fairy Huoying was displaying the innate pure fairy flame?" Upon hearing this, Dugu Yin smiled with some approval.

"Is it really the innate pure immortal flame?" Xiao Lin was even more surprised when he heard Dugu Yin's answer. In the world of immortal cultivation, even in the spiritual world, there is no real innate flame. The innate flame has already entered the realm of original power, which is a magical energy possessed by the immortal world.

But there are always exceptions. As the saying goes, among the fifty great paths, there should be a way out. There is only one way for cultivators in the spiritual world to control the innate flame. That is, they are born with a fire spirit body. When in the mother's womb, they are roasted by the flames and the flames are swallowed into the fetus. Only with the help of the baby's innate energy and the fusion of the fire spirit body can they condense an innate flame.

This innate flame is a gathering of pure innate power, so it is also called innate pure fire.

After the baby is born, this innate pure fire will not dissipate after birth like ordinary people due to the baby's fire spirit body, but will always gather in its dantian.

If he had not joined the immortal sect and practiced the immortal techniques, this ball of innate pure fire would have exploded when he was eighteen years old and turned him into ashes.

This is the sequelae of the legendary innate fire spirit body after absorbing the power of fire in the mother's body.

And if such a being could join a sect and practice authentic fire-based immortal techniques, then he would be able to unleash the amazing potential of this physique. Not only would his practice of fire-based techniques advance by leaps and bounds, but the innate pure fire in his body would also gradually merge into his dantian magic power, producing an even more powerful effect.

Zhu Xiu Gu was undoubtedly lucky. Xiao Lin was also very surprised by this. He did not expect that Zhu Xiu Gu actually had the legendary fire spirit body. Among the five elements, there are mutual generation and restraint, and fire restrains gold. It is no wonder that Dugu Yin gave the task of breaking the gold restriction in front of him to Zhu Xiu Gu. Only he has such ability.

The innate pure immortal flame was indeed powerful. In just a few minutes, the golden light net began to dim. Even on the surrounding walls, where the golden light was emitted, a large amount of golden juice emerged from it and flowed down the walls.

“The basis of these restrictions is one of the toughest materials in the world of immortal cultivation, Wanlianjin. With the blessing of the formation, almost nothing can break it. Only the innate pure flame of Fairy Huoying can melt it.” Dugu Yin saw the power of the innate pure flame emitted by Zhu Xiu'gu and admired it again and again.

As the golden juice flowed, the golden light net dimmed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon with a flash of golden light, the golden light net completely disappeared without a trace.

At this time, Xiao Lin also clearly saw the snow-white vortex suspended three feet in the air in the center of the fifth-floor hall, which was tinged with mystery.

"We don't know how many years this alien dimension has been around, and we don't know whether the space inside is stable enough. If we rush in, once the space is broken, we will probably be exiled to the void of the universe." Zhu Xiu Gu said.

"That's okay. I'll release a spirit pet to go in and investigate." Dugu Yin slapped the beast ring on his waist. With a flash of golden light, a ten-foot-long small snake covered in golden light appeared. The small snake turned into a ray of golden light and shot into the white vortex.

Xiao Lin could tell at a glance that this little snake was just a low-level spiritual pet in the Jindan realm. Under normal circumstances, it could only guard the house and do some exploration work like the one it was doing now.

After a moment, Dugu Yin suddenly smiled: "It seems that the space inside is relatively stable. Although I can't see the environment inside through my pet, my pet is safe and sound at the moment. Let's go in."

Xiao Lin was a little hesitant, but since he was here, he naturally had no reason to retreat. Besides, Gu Bao Zhai was a big trading company that had been operating in the Gu Ri Continent for hundreds of thousands of years. As the core alien space, the treasures collected in it were definitely not ordinary stuff.

Seeing Dugu Yin and Zhu Xiu'gu shot into the vortex one after another, Xiao Lin no longer hesitated. With a flash of his body, he also flew in and disappeared without a trace.

When Xiao Lin saw everything around him, he was filled with surprise. It turned out that the three of them were now in a dense primeval forest. The surrounding vegetation was also very strange, especially those ancient trees. Each tree was probably hundreds of feet tall, and the tall trunks were covered with vines.

Clusters of dark purple fruits grew on these vines, and the fragrance of the fruits spread, almost covering the area within dozens of miles around.

Xiao Lin and the other two all looked into the distance. It turned out that between heaven and earth in the distance, there was an astonishingly large altar. It was said to be large because the three of them could not see clearly how high the altar was, nor how long it was. It almost completely blocked the line between heaven and earth.

"What is that? Why is there an altar in here?"

"Could this be the legendary realm within a realm?" Having said this, Dugu Yin suddenly laughed out loud towards the sky.

"I understand. I finally understand."

Dugu Yin's sudden laughter startled Xiao Lin and Zhu Xiu'gu. If they didn't know that he was a top-level cultivator in the Mahayana realm, they would have thought that Dugu Yin had been stimulated and had become mentally disturbed.

After laughing loudly, Dugu Yin smiled and said, "I finally understand what was written on the map. Xumi Secret Realm, the gate in the building, the realm in the gate, the realm in the realm, the Holy Sun Order. It turns out that the Holy Sun Order is located here. Xumi Secret Realm is where the Lost City is located. The realm in the gate is the five-story attic in Gubaozhai. The realm in the realm naturally describes the different dimensions in the Xumi Secret Realm."

After hearing Dugu Yin's explanation, Xiao Lin and the others also understood that the Holy Sun Order that Dugu Yin was looking for was in this alien space.

"This different dimension seems to be quite large. Looking for a small Holy Sun Order is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Brother Dugu, aren't you happy too early?" Zhu Xiu'gu said with a smile.

"No...no...see the altar in the distance. The Holy Sun Order must be around that altar. Let's go. Dugu Yin has full confidence this time." After Dugu Yin finished speaking, he controlled the escape light without hesitation and flew towards the altar in front.
