"The spiritual energy in this secret realm is so sweet!" Lu Xuan took a deep breath and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
Even now, he still felt a sense of unreality. He never imagined he would one day own a fragment of a secret realm all to himself. He still remembered the days in Linyang Market Town, where he had to spend spirit stones to rent a cramped little courtyard with a pitifully small spiritual field. Then, after joining the Heavenly Sword Sect, he deliberately chose a remote mountain peak to cultivate his spiritual field. Later, he advanced to become an inner sect disciple and was granted his own cave dwelling. And now, he had this secret realm.
"Back in the market town, it was like renting a tiny house in a slum—crude conditions, a mix of good and bad people, and not very stable," Lu Xuan mused. "Joining the sect was like upgrading to a decent apartment, where everything was more secure. Now, it feels like I finally have my own house. And the best part? It came for free."
