I Just Want to Live Well, But I Surpassed the Protagonist – 20 Century-Old Secret Realm
“Young Master Ye! You called us?” Ye Gou was just like his name, like a real dog. He nodded and bowed and came to Ye Yong, almost wagging his tail.
“Let’s go.” Ye Yong didn’t say much. He took the lead and walked towards one of the spaceships. Ye Gou and the others followed closely behind.
The spaceship had limited chairs. Most cultivators found a place to sit cross-legged. Those who could sit on chairs were usually more dignified.
Ye Yong brought the younger generation of the Ye family to sit together. Everyone looked at him, waiting for him to speak. Ye Yong was a little embarrassed. He couldn’t say that he had asked them to come because he wanted them to be His shield, right?
After pondering for a moment, Ye Yong set up a soundproof array and put on a serious expression. “The secret realm is very dangerous. If you find anything wrong, don’t hesitate. Immediately crush the teleportation stone and leave.”
“What do you mean by dangerous?” Ye Gou and the others also became serious. What could make Ye Yong pay so much attention to it? It must be a very terrifying situation, right?
“It’s not convenient for me to disclose it. In any case, you should be careful.” There are so many traps and so many ferocious spirit beasts in the secret realm. How would Ye Yong know what kind of danger they would encounter?
“With Yongdi, it should be fine, right?” A cousin gave Ye Yong a flirtatious look.
“Yeah, Brother Yong will definitely protect us, right?” A cousin’s daughter cast amorous glances at him.
Ye Yong was speechless. Even if he told them about the dangers of getting too close, they wouldn’t listen. After all, this was the world of cultivators.
Ye Yong ignored their advances. “I have important matters to attend to. I can’t go with you, but you’d better work together. As for the resources, if you find them, distribute them according to your contributions. Also, never fight others for resources. Only the ones you find yourself belong to you. Finally, as I mentioned earlier, leave immediately if you find anything amiss. Your life is the most important.”
Anyway, Ye Yong would scare them with riddles first, so that they would talk less.
As expected, the younger generation of the Ye family fell into deep thought, pondering Ye Yong’s words.
Since he had dragged them here to be his shields, Ye Yong still had to give them some benefits. He didn’t want to see fewer than 20 of them when they came out of the secret realm. After all, they were his clansmen, and they were from the villainous family. They were more likely to be loyal to him than outsiders.
“This is a defensive magic tool that can withstand three attacks from a mid-tier Golden Core cultivator. As long as you don’t go too deep into dangerous places, it will be enough for you to escape.” Ye Yong handed the item to Ye Gou, who had the highest cultivation level.
Ye Gou took it with great excitement. “Young Master Ye, please rest assured. With me here, I will definitely not let any of our brothers and sisters lose a single hair.”
Ye Yong almost laughed out loud when he heard this. Who was it that led a group of Foundation Establishment cultivators to fight the protagonist in the novel, only to be killed in the end? If Ye Yong hadn’t stopped that incident, the protagonist would have killed Ye Gou like a stray dog.
Ye Yong patted Ye Gou’s shoulder and didn’t say much. He just hoped that this doggy would be more sensible.

By the time the spaceship arrived at the secret realm, it was already afternoon.
The Tianluo Sect had control over many secret realms. A secret realm could be seen as a small alien space. In addition to that, there were also large alien worlds, which were usually called battlefields.
In the battlefields, there were many human cultivators and other races from different worlds. They fought and competed for resources.
There were many lower realms, and the weak were prey to the strong. The lower realm that Ye Yong was in was called the Kunlun Realm. It was a very old-fashioned name, but when online literature first became popular, it sounded very domineering .
In any case, if the Kunlun Realm’s spiritual energy was too weak, it would also become a battlefield and be invaded by other lower realms.
Fortunately, the Kunlun Realm was very strong overall. It had always been the one invading others. As for the mid-term demon invasion, it wasn’t just the Kunlun Realm that was in trouble. Other lower realms would also be in danger. The Kunlun Realm was one of the few lower realms that had successfully resisted.
However, the mid-term incident was still far away. Ye Yong didn’t have to think about it for the time being. His first priority was still to improve his cultivation.
“Remember, no killing among the same sect is allowed. If anyone is found doing so, they will be severely punished!” After everyone got off the ship, the Nascent Soul supervisor emphasized again and again. Then, several Nascent Soul experts who stayed behind worked together to lift the restriction and open the secret realm.
This hundred-year secret realm was called the Gan Ni Secret Realm. It had an ancient forest and mountain range, and a kind of spiritual soil called Gan Ni. Since it was opened once every hundred years, the resources inside were abundant. Although there were no very precious spiritual plants, they were still advanced enough for Foundation Establishment and even Golden Core cultivators. It was basically free, so it was awesome.
Moreover, the highlight wasn’t the spiritual plants or other resources that assisted cultivation. Over the past thousands of years, many elders of the Tianluo Sect had placed the heart techniques, secret techniques, or some technical tips that they had obtained or written in the secret realm, waiting for people to discover them.
What did cultivators value most? One word: fate.
Those who were fated would get it, and it didn’t have much to do with cultivation level. Therefore, even if one was only at the first level of Foundation Establishment, they still had a chance to obtain a fortuitous opportunity.
However, those at the first level of Foundation Establishment were destined not to be able to go too deep into the secret realm. After all, there were still many spirit beasts living in the secret realm. The weakest was at the second level of Foundation Establishment, and the strongest was at the late stage of Crystallization. It was still quite dangerous.
Of course, cultivators could bring some tools into the secret realm, such as beast repelling incense. However, beast repelling incense wasn’t omnipotent. Some spirit beasts had a strong sense of territory, and they would attack as soon as someone stepped into it .
This was also why the sect would distribute life-saving teleportation stones. Once they encountered a spirit beast that they couldn’t handle, they could immediately escape. Although there were still people who died every time, the number was very small. As for Those who died, either their luck was really bad, or there was something wrong with their brains, so it didn’t matter.
Entering the secret realm was done in batches, and the teleportation locations were all different. They were roughly controlled to be on the periphery of the secret realm. In any case, the closer one got to the center, the more resources there would be, and the greater the chance of obtaining an inheritance. Relatively speaking, the chance of encountering danger would also increase.
Each batch teleported a thousand people. Ye Yong still stood with the younger generation of the Ye family. After they were teleported into the secret realm, he would act alone.
Many people were staring at Ye Yong, wanting to be teleported to the same starting point as him, hoping to get some of his good luck. Some people wanted to stay away from Ye Yong, afraid that he would suck away their luck.
In the crowd, more than ten cultivators with obscene looks squeezed their way towards Ye Yong. They squeezed into the thousand people and were teleported to the same starting point as Ye Yong.
“Alright, you guys be careful. I’ll see you outside later.”
As soon as they entered the secret realm, before they had time to observe their surroundings, they heard Ye Yong say this to the younger generation of the Ye family. The more than ten cultivators were overjoyed.
Was he planning to act alone? This was a great opportunity bestowed by the heavens!
They had been worried that if Ye Yong stayed with the twenty or so descendants of the Ye family, the difficulty of the mission would increase greatly. Now that they knew that he was going to act alone, they were immediately relieved.
Did he think that he was invincible just because he was a genius?
The three Foundation Establishment tenth level cultivators at the front all had smiles in their eyes. They were just about to follow Ye Yong when, all of a sudden, Ye Yong used a movement technique that Foundation Establishment cultivators couldn’t use at all. He was incredibly fast, and he disappeared in a flash.
“???” The cultivators were all stunned. They had just been happy for a moment, but they had already lost him?
