Usually, most grade-one forces would recruit disciples during the opening of the Genius Secret Realm. However, they would only take the initiative to recruit truly outstanding grassroots prodigies. These grassroots prodigies could also join some first-grade forces without an invitation, but the treatment between those who were invited to join and those who voluntarily joined was vastly different.
Over the past 10,000 years, two of the three strongest grade-one forces in the Nan Dou Territory, the Ancient Phoenix Clan and the Baili Clan, had only invited a grassroots prodigy each to join them. On the other hand, the third strongest grade-one force, the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect, had not extended an invitation to anyone in the past 10,000 years.
“I wonder if there will be any grassroots prodigy whom the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect deemed worthy of extending an invitation to.”
“That’s unlikely to happen. The Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect’s bar is set much higher than the Ancient Phoenix Clan and the Baili Clan. They won’t simply invite a grassroots prodigy to join them.”
“I agree. Compared to the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect, there’s a higher chance of us seeing the Ancient Phoenix Clan or the Baili Clan inviting a grassroots prodigy to join them.”
…
There were entrances to the Genius Secret Realm all over the Nan Dou Territory. As long as the requirements were met, anyone could enter the Genius Secret Realm. Even someone from another territory would be able to enter the Genius Secret Realm as long as they were a Celestial Lord below the age of 1,000.
Apart from that, the Genius Secret Realm entrances would only be open for three days and three nights. After that, there would be no way to enter the secret realm.
There were plenty of people across the Nan Dou Territory who were in a similar situation as Duan Ling Tian. Their cultivation bases were stuck at that of a Ten Direction Celestial King, and they just needed a push to break through and become a Celestial Lord. With the opening of the Genius Secret Realm drawing closer and closer, they were all frantically searching for an opportunity to break through and become a Celestial Lord in order to enter the secret realm.
…
As the days passed, the opening of the Genius Secret Realm drew closer and closer.
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian was sitting in one of the mountain valleys in the Snow Horizon Celestial Sect. He sighed before he muttered to himself, “It’s over for me… There’s only one month left to go. I wonder if I’ll be able to trick the Genius Secret Realm into letting me in if I use the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon to boost my cultivation base to that of a One Basic Celestial Lord?”
With that thought in mind, Duan Ling Tian decided to look for Chai Xiong Yi, the Sect Leader of the Snow Horizon Celestial Sect, for answers. After spending all these years in the sect, he was aware that Chai Xiong Yi was the most knowledgeable person in the sect. In fact, it was not an exaggeration to say Chai Xiong Yi was the most knowledgeable person in Northern Iceland.
After listening to Duan Ling Tian’s question, Chai Xiong Yi said, “Revered Elder, what you suggested will work. However, do you think it’s possible for you not to expend any energy once you’re in the Genius Secret Realm? After all, your cultivation base would fall the more energy you use. At that time when your cultivation base reverts back to that of a Ten Directions Celestial King, you’ll be transported out of the secret realm. There is no lack of people who tried to circumvent the rules with this method, but all of them were eventually transported out of the secret realm.”
Duan Ling Tian fell silent upon hearing Chai Xiong Yi’s words.
Upon seeing Duan Ling Tian remaining silent, Chai Xiong Yi put forth a bold suggestion. “Revered Elder, since you have a consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon, why don’t you use it now and try to familiarize yourself with the cultivation base of a Celestial Lord. Perhaps, it’ll give you the enlightenment you need to break through and become a One Basic Celestial Lord. With your current cultivation base, it’s not a waste for you to use the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon.”
Duan Ling Tian’s eyes lit up immediately upon hearing Chai Xiong Xi’s suggestions. ‘That’s right! Why didn’t I think of this?’
He did not hesitate and used up the last of the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon to temporarily raise his cultivation base.
After the final use, the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon slowly disappeared.
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian’s cultivation base, Celestial Origin Energy, and Soul Energy were that of a One Basic Celestial Lord.
‘This is what it feels like to be a One Basic Celestial Lord…’ Duan Ling Tian inhaled deeply and immersed himself in the feeling of being a One Basic Celestial Lord.
Following that, Duan Ling Tian bade farewell to Chai Xiong Yi and returned to his courtyard in the valley.
…
In the following month, Duan Ling Tian was careful not to simply use his Celestial Origin Energy or Soul Energy in fear of causing his cultivation base to revert to that of a Ten Directions Celestial King.
…
On the second day the Genius Secret Realm opened, a burst of laughter rang in the valley in the Snow Horizon Celestial Sect.

Duan Ling Tian who had lost all hope of breaking through finally became a One Basic Celestial Lord. Just as Chai Xiong Xi had said, he really managed to find the enlightenment he needed to break through after using the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon to raise his cultivation base.
“Congratulations, Revered Elder Ling Tian.” Hao Wang, one of the Supreme Elders of the Snow Horizons Celestial Sect, congratulated Duan Ling Tian. He was in the valley as well so he was quick to discover Duan Ling Tian’s breakthrough.
Duan Ling Tian nodded in response to Hao Wang before he quickly went to wake up Huan’er who was comprehending the law of space.
“Huan’er, I’ve broken through! Let’s go! There’s an entrance to the Genius Secret Realm nearby!”
At this moment, there was slightly more than a day left before the entrances to Genius Secret Realm closed. From their current location, it would take Duan Ling Tian and Huan’er a day to arrive at the nearest entrance.
Although there was plenty of time left until the entrances closed, Duan Ling Tian was in a rush due to his excitement.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Hao Wang who was standing nearby, naturally, overheard Duan Ling Tian’s words. He watched in shock as Duan Ling Tian and Huan’er vanished from his sight. “The Genius Secret Realm? This means… This means the two Revered Elders aren’t even 1,000 years old?!”
Hao Wang was dumbfounded when he recalled Duan Ling Tian and Huan’er’s strength before they even became Celestial Lords.
“They’re definitely comparable to those young geniuses from the grade-one forces in the Genius Secret Realm… In fact, I don’t think there are many young geniuses from grade-one forces who are a match for the two Revered Elders.” Hao Wang had full confidence in Duan Ling Tian and Huan’er since he had witnessed their strength, after all.
…
After almost a day, Duan Ling Tian and Huan’er finally arrived at one of the Genius Secret Realm entrances that was located closest to the Snow Horizon Celestial Sect. This entrance was located halfway up a sharp cliff.
At this moment, there were many people hovering in the air outside the entrance. It was clear these people were only here to have a look or here to accompany their friends. Only a few people could be seen going into the entrance.
When Duan Ling Tian and Huan’er arrived, everyone was, naturally, stunned by Huan’er’s peerless beauty.
“Huan’er, let’s go!” Duan Ling Tian did not pay any attention to the people in the surroundings. He held Huan’er’s hand and quickly led her into the entrance.
Even after the duo had entered the Genius Secret Realm, the people outside were still in awe over Huan’er shocking beauty.
…
“Is this the Genius Secret Realm?” Duan Ling Tian’s vision darkened before it became bright again. He discovered he and Huan’er were standing above a majestic building at this moment.
They could see other people milling around the building as well.
“Huan’er, let’s have a look over there.” Duan Ling Tian saw a towering mountain peak in the distance. He discovered many people were heading in that direction as well.
It did not take long before Duan Ling Tian and Huan’er caught up with a group of people heading to the towering mountain.
At this time, many people had taken notice of Huan’er. Many men were charmed by her beauty, and their expressions soured when they saw her holding onto Duan Ling Tian’s hand. Their eyes were brimming with envy and jealousy when they looked at Duan Ling Tian.
A muscular middle-aged man said in amazement, “It’s rare for a female Celestial to be able to enter the Genius Secret Realm! Moreover, she’s such a beauty! It’s too bad that she’s taken!”
Upon hearing this, a young man who seemed like a womanizer said with a smile, “It doesn’t matter. You can always snatch that woman if you’re strong enough.”
Another young man who was standing nearby said mockingly in return, “You’re all talk but no actions… Why don’t you try it?”
Despite their words, no one caused any trouble. After all, those capable of entering the Genius Secret Realm were extremely talented. Perhaps, apart from a few young geniuses from grade-one forces, no one would simply provoke anyone here. After all, they could not be certain if the other person was stronger than them.
At this moment, a young man near Duan Ling Tian said with a sigh, “The Genius Secret Realm has only been open for less than three days… I wonder if any of the geniuses from the grade-one forces have already arrived at the foot of Peak of Gravity. If they arrive first, I don’t think I stand a chance of getting a good rank.”
‘Peak of Gravity?’ Duan Ling Tian’s eyes glinted as he looked at the towering mountain where everyone seemed to be heading toward.
After listening to conversations around him, Duan Ling Tian finally learned about Peak of Gravity.
Peak of Gravity was a mountain where the gravity would grow stronger and stronger the higher one climbed up.
There were 99 Peaks of Gravity in the Genius Secret Realm. Everyone was free to challenge any of the peaks. One would be rewarded once one reached a certain height. If one managed to set a new record, one might even be rewarded with an Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon or something of similar value. Needless to say, it was not an easy feat to set a new record.
Duan Ling Tian whose interest was piqued continued listening in to the conversations around him.
“According to the Peak of Gravity’s record, it has been almost 20,000 years since anyone has set a new record. I think the last person to do so is Yu Jian Cheng, the current Sect Leader of the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect, right ?”
“That’s right! Back then, Sect Leader Yu set a new record by rising 37,086 meters high with the cultivation base of a Six Combos Celestial Lord. After that, he was rewarded with an Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon!”
“If I’m not mistaken, the best result over the past 10,000 years is a little more than 30,000 meters high, right? Even that is still far cry from Sect Leader Yu’s record!”
“Sect Leader Yu of the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect isn’t an ordinary man, after all. He’s as powerful as the older generation powerhouses in the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect even though he’s the youngest among them.”
