Hearing Duan Xingliu deny Song Jian entry into the Starry Sky Ten Thousand Races Secret Realm, Xing Ling showed a weird expression on her face.

It is known that the Starry Sky Ten Thousand Races Secret Realm is extremely vast, with any small area rivaling the large secret realms of other sects, and it could even be considered a secret realm universe in its own right.

Such a secret realm, how could it be casually opened? At the very least, Xin Ling knew that the last time the Starry Sky Ten Thousand Races Secret Realm was opened was over five hundred years ago, and at that time, it was likely that Duan Xingliu hadn’t been born yet.

“Master, you wouldn’t be thinking of using my spot to go in yourself, would you?” Song Jian asked with an unfriendly gaze, staring at Duan Xingliu.

“Impertinence, what are you talking about? As your master, I have not yet stepped into the Legendary Realm. Do I need to take your spot?” Duan Xingliu glanced sideways at Song Jian and said disdainfully, “After I enter the secret realm this time, I will surely emerge as legendary!”

“If that’s the case, then I’d like to congratulate Master in advance!” Song Jian said with a full smile on his face: “This time entering the secret realm, I’ll need a lot of care from Master. I’ll just follow behind and pick up some benefits …”

“We’ll see if we encounter that, you rascal, are not at all honest!” Duan Xingliu snorted coldly, looking at Song Jian, who had already reached level one hundred and ten, and always felt somewhat stifled.

Song Jian naturally knew that Duan Xingliu was feeling a bit uncomfortable, and didn’t dare to continue staying by his side. Instead, he approached Xin Ling and began to inquire about the details of the secret realm’s opening.

Since completing the mission with Song Jian last time, Xing Ling had also earned quite a bit of sect contribution, and because of the She Man Grass, Xing Ling had gained attention from the sect. After Song Jian left, Xing Ling stayed in the sect, steadily improving her strength by completing sect missions. She had reached level eighty-nine, not as high as Song Jian, but still one of the higher-level players among her peers.

“Senior brother, we really hit the jackpot this time!” Xing Ling exclaimed excitedly, while also cautiously glancing around, whispered, “The Imperial Sword Sect has only the two of us as player disciples for now, this is our great opportunity to pull ahead of the other players!”

“Junior sister, you’ve been in the sect all this time, your information is up-to-date. Tell me, what’s the deal with this Starry Sky Ten Thousand Races Secret Realm? What opportunities and benefits are inside?” Song Jian asked.

“Haha, senior brother, you’re asking the right person. Even the game forums don’t have information on this secret realm. The vast majority of players, even the in-game NPCs, are oblivious to this realm. However, some sects that carry on the traditions of the Ancient Sword Sect might have records of this secret realm but they only get bits and pieces, unable to get the details. Only our Imperial Sword Sect has all the information on this realm and the method to open it!” Xing Ling said excitedly.

“Senior brother, do you have any idea how long this game has been open? Or rather, how long has this game existed?” Xing Ling asked mysteriously.

“I don’t know, maybe thousands to tens of thousands of years?” Song Jian guessed. He had traveled to many places in the game and understood some of the background stories. Not to mention anything else, those gods that reigned on high, most of them had existed for tens of thousands of years!

“Tens of thousands of years, not quite…” Xing Ling whispered, “At least hundreds of millions of years!”

Song Jian was stunned, but wasn’t too shocked. After all, it’s just a game, and many times, the hundreds of millions of years in the game could just be a very short period in the real world.

In the real world, many online games would operate on their own for a while before being opened. During this period, the game company would not interfere with the game’s progress until the game civilization developed to a certain level, and then they would open the game for players to enter.

“It’s just that the early game civilization operation period was a bit longer than usual, nothing too remarkable!” Song Jian shook his head and said in a low voice.

“`

Xing Ling looked at Song Jian, a trace of a strange expression appearing on her face. After pondering for quite a while, she spoke in a low voice, “Do you, do you still think, even now, that this is really just a game? What kind of game can affect the real world? What game has skills, personal attributes, or even items that can be taken into the real world?”

Crack~

It was as if a bolt of lightning had flashed through Song Jian’s mind. He had similar speculations before, but as he delved deeper into the game, more characteristics that did not fit with an online game began to slowly emerge.

However, whenever Song Jian began to harbor doubts, for some unknown reason, he would automatically dismiss them, as though a mysterious will was interfering with him.

Now, Xing Ling’s sudden reminder jolted him into a complete awakening. This game could no longer be treated as just a game!

“Are you saying, the place we are in, is a real world? An, an alternate world?” Song Jian exclaimed in surprise.

“I don’t know…” Xing Ling shook her head and said, “But at the very least, we can’t treat it as just a game. At the very least, we should consider it another complete, real world. We, we are actually a group of transmigrators!”

Song Jian took a deep breath and nodded slowly, inwardly agreeing with Xing Ling’s statement.

“Senior Brother, do you know what this world was like over a million years ago?” Xing Ling asked.

“Who could know that? At least on Earth, over a million years ago, humans had not yet appeared, haha!” Song Jian laughed.

Xing Ling shook her head and said, “I don’t know about Earth, but here, over a million years ago, it was an era of glittering stars and competing races. Back then, humans were just one of the powerful races among many. In the starry sky, there were even races stronger than the human race. But a million years have passed, and the myriad races have long been annihilated. Many races have been completely wiped out, and if any survive, they’re just remnants struggling for existence. The human race, on the other hand, has completely developed and grown stronger, becoming the most powerful race!”

“The Human Race became the most powerful race?” Song Jian showed a skeptical look. Since entering the game, Song Jian had come into contact with quite a few clans–the Giant Dragon Clan, the Undead Clan, the Shadow Clan, the Demon Clan, the Beast Clan, and so on. But he had never felt that among these races, the human race was the strongest. Instead, it seemed more like a remnant race, struggling to survive in cities of various sizes, with its influence extending only a few hundred or even just tens of miles around the city, constantly in danger of being annihilated!

Seemingly perceiving Song Jian’s skepticism, Xing Ling said with some helplessness, “After the Human Race became the most powerful race, with no external enemies, humans began to fight among themselves. The Ancient Sword Sect, tens of thousands of years ago, dominated the other sects and even engaged in deicide, shining brilliantly for a time. But compared to a million years ago, it was still nothing like a minor sect from that era. However, too much time has passed, and no one knows what exactly happened to the human race then. Although there are some records within the sects, they are vague…”

“Does this Starry Sky Ten Thousand Races Secret Realm have something to do with the competition of the myriad races a million years ago?” Song Jian asked suddenly, inspired.

“The Starry Sky Ten Thousand Races Secret Realm is a fragment of that era snatched from the River of Time and Space, the scene of the human race’s struggle against the starry sky all races, preserved as a secret realm. Once it opens, we will enter that fragment of time and space, experiencing firsthand the scene of the human race battling the starry sky all races!” Xing Ling said excitedly.
