The Demon Beast Secret Realm was not far from the Western Wasteland, and after the Demon King utilized Spatial Divine Power, it took less than half an incense stick’s time to arrive.

Compared to the last visit, the spiritual energy of the Secret Land was indeed much weaker, but when compared to the outside world, it was still considered to be several times stronger.

This made Logan anxious, as the situation in the Demon Beast Secret Realm was more severe than he had imagined. After all, it was the dissipation of the entire Secret Land’s spiritual energy. Although this small world was not large, spanning tens of thousands of miles, he wondered if he alone really could save it?

However, no matter what he thought, he had ultimately taken on this matter and had to try his best. Otherwise, should the Demon King become enraged, the consequences for Logan were not hard to imagine.

“What exactly is going on with the Secret Land? Is the spiritual energy dissipating for no reason, or has some crack appeared somewhere? You should give me a clear explanation.”

Logan looked at the Demon King beside him and asked. If the other party did not make things clear, even if Logan had great abilities, he would still be clueless about the situation at hand.

“Actually, it’s a long story. The Demon Beast Secret Realm was not naturally formed, but rather created by Demon Beast Powerhouses using Divine Skills to carve out this small world. On one hand, they wished to stay away from the outside world, and on the other, they hoped their offspring could rise up and completely sever ties with the Demon Beast Mountain Range.”

“Tens of thousands of years have passed, and the sustaining power of the Secret Land is not enough, or to say, after so many years of depletion, it has already become extremely weak. If not resolved soon, I estimate within a year or two, once the spiritual energy is exhausted, the Secret Land will collapse completely.”

“In the past few decades, I have been trying to find a solution, but nothing works. I have even spent at least ten thousand Top-Grade Spirit Stones just to delay the demise of the Secret Land, but to bring the entire Secret Land back into operation seems an impossible feat.”

The Demon King heaved a long sigh and said to Logan, “If you can save the Demon Beast Secret Realm, you will be our clan’s benefactor, and I will agree to whatever you want.”

“I roughly understand now. It’s just that the power of the Secret Land has been exhausted; all we need to do is replenish a large amount of spiritual energy. This isn’t difficult at all.”

Logan breathed a sigh of relief. He thought the Secret Land was damaged by man-made destruction, but it turned out to be just a lack of spiritual energy. It’s like a cultivator’s Dantian running out of energy. As long as you replenish the Dantian with spiritual energy, the cultivator can continue to fight without worry of extinction.

“That’s one way to understand it, but how can we infuse the Secret Land with spiritual energy? And how do we do that once and for all? To maintain the operation of an entire Secret Land, tens of thousands of Top-Grade Spirit Stones are needed daily. Adding up everyone in the entire Secret Land, nowadays, we can hardly gather a few thousand.”

“Of course, ordinary Spirit Stones would also work, but that would be an even more enormous number. Per day, at least several billion are needed. Even if we were to sacrifice the entire outside world, that would only support the Secret Land for half a month. Now you understand the difficulty of the Secret Land, right?”

The Demon King chuckled bitterly. If replenishing spiritual energy could resolve the issue, why would he be so troubled, even to the point of inviting Logan back for help?

Logan was even more puzzled. The Secret Land was only tens of thousands of miles in size; did it require that many Spirit Stones? In Logan’s view, a hundred Top-Grade Spirit Stones per day should be enough, and with so many cultivators in the Secret Land, if each contributed a bit, they might not even need to consume Spirit Stones.

“The Secret Land is now at the end of its strength because it has existed for too long, so if you infuse one Top-Grade Spirit Stone, only one percent can be absorbed, wasting the remaining ninety-nine percent. Either the spiritual energy leaks out to the outside world, or it’s simply devoured altogether.”

For the Demon King, over the years he had invited countless experts, but not one could resolve the issue. Some would just take one look and then shake their heads, scared off.

In this world, there are countless Secret Lands, which will eventually perish with the passage of time, following the truth of the Heavenly Dao, far beyond what human power can save—unless a supreme Strong One appears, such as a Saint Emperor, who with just a wave of his hand, can create a small world.

Logan’s brow furrowed. If that was the case, the problem wasn’t just that the Secret Land lacked the support of spiritual energy; more importantly, cracks had formed, although unlike the Immortal Realm, the cracks were too small, almost negligible, so the Demon King and everyone else failed to notice them.

If one wished to resolve the crisis of the Secret Land, they must first repair the cracks; otherwise, even if Logan took action and generated more spiritual energy, it would be useless, as it would all ultimately be lost through the cracks.

“I understand now. I plan to set up a thousand arrays throughout the Secret Land to investigate where the fluctuations of spiritual energy are abnormal, thereby identifying the location of the cracks. After that, I will repair the cracks one by one. This way, even if the spiritual energy of the Secret Land doesn’t circulate, at least it won’t vanish.”

Logan looked at the Demon King and said firmly, “But the Secret Land spans over tens of thousands of miles. If I set up a thousand arrays all by myself, it would take half a month, which clearly you can’t afford to wait for. Therefore, I need you to find over a thousand people who understand arrays; they don’t need to be excessively proficient.”

“Even those who don’t understand arrays will do, as long as they have Talent in this area. I need their help to set up a thousand arrays. Once these arrays are operational, I can find the problem within a day. It’s your responsibility, Demon King, to find these people.”

“Cracks in the Secret Land?” The Demon King was quite surprised. Why hadn’t he noticed them at all? He had suspected as much before and even sent people to check every location, but nothing was found.

“The cracks are too small, just like cloth that one believes can withstand the cold. However, the chill can still freeze a person; that’s because the cracks are too small, making them difficult to detect.”
