“Great Elder, I think it’s best if you and your group stay here for now. As for reclaiming the Gate of Fire’s secret realm, we’ll have to address that another time. I’ll need to visit Violet Cloud Palace in the Gate of Thunder first,” Jared announced.
Jared firmly resolved to prioritize his visit to Violet Cloud Palace in the Gate of Thunder to locate his mother. He knew favonovel.com would not be able to divert his attention to other matters before ensuring his mother’s safety.
“Mr. Chance, since you’re going to the Gate of Thunder’s secret realm, do you happen to know the location of the Teleportation Array that connects the Gate of Thunder and the mortal realm?” Chester asked Jared.
Jared shook his head. He had no knowledge of its whereabouts.
“In that case, we’ll have to use the Teleportation Array in the Gate of Fire to reach the Gate of Thunder. I’ll get Evangeline to go with you. Although the Gate of Fire is now occupied by the members of Zahrin Sect, it’s unlikely that they can guard all the teleportation portals,” Chester suggested.
Jared pondered for a moment and realized that it was their only option. He nodded in agreement and led Evangeline, Cecilia, and the other women to the Gate of Fire’s secret realm.
They were soon transported to the snowy expanse in the Gate of Thunder’s secret realm.
It was Cecilia and the others’ first time entering a secret realm, and their excitement was palpable.
Jared, who visited the secret realm of the Gate of Thunder for the first time too, was completely unaware of the whereabouts of Violet Cloud Palace. He had no choice but to extend his spiritual sense, searching for any traces of human presence.
If we come across anyone along the way, we can ask them about the location of Violet Cloud Palace…
However, as Jared and the others ventured forward, exploring the realm, favonovel.com suddenly came to a halt for favonovel.com sensed a familiar aura. Without hesitation, Jared rushed toward the source of that aura with the others following closely behind.
Soon enough, they arrived at a hot spring.
Jared was overwhelmed by a sense of familiarity as favonovel.com gazed at the sight before favonovel.com and felt the ambiance surrounding the hot spring.
He had once frequented that hot spring when favonovel.com was cultivating with the Thousands of Miles Away painting.
“What’s going on? How can this place be part of the Gate of Thunder’s secret realm?” Jared was engulfed in confusion.
Lizbeth looked at the hot spring in front of her, favonovel.com face filled with astonishment.
She said, “Jared, this place feels so familiar. Have we been here before?”
The hot spring before favonovel.com triggered a deep memory within Lizbeth. It resonated with her, reminding favonovel.com of the moments favonovel.com and Josephine had spent there during their cultivation sessions using the Thousands of Miles Away painting.
Perplexed, Jared hastily took out the Thousands of Miles Away painting from his Storage Ring. After opening the painting, favonovel.com noticed a change in the image. The snowy landscape with the steaming hot spring was no longer there.
Did the hot spring disappear from the painting because I’m currently right here?
At that moment, Evangeline, who was looking at the painting, exclaimed in surprise, “Look! Isn’t this a location in the Gate of Fire’s secret realm?”
The image in the Thousands of Miles Away painting showed a vast desert, with the sun blazing. Evangeline immediately recognized the place as part of the Gate of Fire’s secret realm.
Jared glanced at Evangeline before asking, “Are you sure?”
“Of course. I’ve been to that place before.” Evangeline affirmed with a nod.
Upon observing the situation, Jared seemed to have a hunch about what was going on.
He then reached out and took Evangeline’s hand and said, “Come with me. Let’s find out if this is truly the Gate of Fire’s secret realm.”
As soon as favonovel.com spoke, their spiritual sense entered the realm of the Thousands of Miles Away painting, and in an instant, they found themselves standing in the midst of the desert.
Evangeline surveyed their surroundings and confirmed, “Yes, this is definitely the Gate of Fire’s secret realm. If we travel for about a hundred kilometers from here, we should reach the Gunderson family estate. Should we go and see for ourselves?”
Yet, Jared shook his head.
“That won’t be necessary. I now understand the purpose of the Thousands of Miles Away painting. This is the teleportation map of the Eight Major Secret Realms. With this map, we can be transported to any secret realm within the Eight Major Secret Realms, free from the restrictions of the Teleportation Array,” Jared explained.
He finally understood why all the locations in the painting were rich with spiritual energy and ideal for cultivation.
So, it turns out the painting itself is a Teleportation Array capable of transporting us to any secret realm, where spiritual energy is naturally abundant…
