After entering the Secret Realm, all three of them noticed that something was wrong because they immediately realized that they could fly in the air. According to the information previously received, the Zheng Clan Ancestor flew over to the inner part of the Secret Realm.

However, now things seemed to be different, thus making their previous plans useless. However, despite the sudden change, the three of them did not stop their movement and still proceeded to where the pills and inheritance was.

However, as soon as these ancestors took a few more steps, countless puppets started attacking them, so they fought back with their immense strength.

Unfortunately, the strength of these puppets were not to be underestimated. More importantly, there are too many of them.

"I thought you said that the first wave of puppets were quite easy to get through?" asked the Leng Clan Ancestor.

"It's supposed to be. Previously, a Divine Altar Realm cultivator managed to pass through this wave easily and reached the inner layer," responded the Zheng Clan Ancestor.

"This can only mean one thing," said the Chang Clan Ancestor. "After the last visit, all the formations of the Secret Realm were fully activated."

The two nodded after hearing this, however, this did not change their current situation. Even with using all their powerful spells and attacks, they can only destroy a few puppets.

What's even worse was the fact that after a puppet is destroyed, the remains will instantly vanish from the ground. Then after a few minutes, a brand new puppet will appear from the previous remains.

The only way to prevent such a thing from happening is to destroy the core of the puppets. Unfortunately, these puppets seemed to be designed with the ability to constantly move their cores around, making it very difficult to locate.

"Should we use our Dao Flame?" asked one of the ancestors. However, no one answered him. If it was the past, all of them might agree to do so.

However, they have learned from the Extraterrestrial Demons that using their Dao Flame or Good Fortune Flame is akin to ruining their future. As one of the highest realms of this world, these ancestors only care about two things: their family and pursuing higher realms.

Unfortunately, they care more about their own strength than their clans. As such, they will not sacrifice their futures for their families.

"How about we use the strength of our family elites to slowly clear out these puppets? With more people, the process should be simpler," said the Zheng Clan Ancestor.

A suggestion that solicited the approval of all the others. Immediately afterwards, the three of them rushed out of the Secret Realm. The Zheng Clan Ancestor flew towards the capital, while the other two flew in different directions.

After secretly returning to the Zheng Clan Manor, the Zheng Ancestor explained the entire situation to Patriarch Zheng Yong.

"Ancestor, is there really no other way?" asked Zheng Yong, however his ancestor just shook her head.

"But, it was already very difficult and risky to allow three of you to secretly enter the Secret Realm under the nose of his majesty Wang Wei. So, how are we supposed to move so many of our elites? Especially when we already told his majesty that we did not have any other secret strength hiding?"

The Zheng Clan Ancestor sighed after hearing this and said, "Patriarch, I'm afraid that you will have to wait until his majesty leaves this world before our clans can enjoy the benefit of this Secret Realm."

Zheng Yong's face became ugly after hearing this. Then, he started thinking about other possible solutions, however, he realized that all of them contained great risks and could end up with their clans being discovered by the royal family. As such, he also sighed and agreed with his ancestor.
