The chance to personally see a secret realm and explore it for treasures was even rarer.

If he had missed this opportunity, he would have felt deeply regretful.

Now that he had succeeded, it confirmed a certain idea in his mind.

Feeling at ease, Xiao Shou stepped into the boundary membrane gate.

After entering, Xiao Shou was stunned.

All around him was a vast expanse of white.

Where was everyone?

Although he had thought through many things during that brief moment of testing, only a few breaths had passed.

How could everyone have already disappeared?

Had they moved that quickly or was there something strange about this white space?

Sensing that something was wrong, Xiao Shou instinctively recalled the information about this area from the original story.

Ah, found it.

"The inner wall of the boundary membrane is a vast white expanse..."

After recalling that key line, Xiao Shou immediately understood his situation.

He was currently inside the inner wall region of the boundary membrane.

From the inside, it looked like an endless white empty space, but in reality, it was boundless and encompassed the entire secret realm.

It was essentially a spatial domain.

Each step taken was equivalent to crossing a distance within the secret realm.

Only by finding a crack in the inner wall of the boundary membrane and passing through it could one truly enter the secret realm.

In the original story, Chen Zhiyi and Chen Qingzhi had used this very characteristic.

After escaping from Li Peiyi, they relied on their special eyes abilities to locate a reverse crack within the boundary membrane.

Instead of waiting for the White Silver Secret Realm to eject them when time was up, they exited early through that reverse crack.

This detail had appeared in Li Peiyi’s memories, although he had referred to them only as "those two" without naming them.

Meanwhile, in the storyline of Zhong Kui, the Chen brothers had escaped from the Penglai Immortal Isle Lord’s plan to sacrifice the Immortal Grass at the very beginning and entered the secret realm through a different path.

Zhong Kui had been curious about their actions, so he followed them and avoided the sacrifice as well.

The people who entered after him also took a different path and ended up in another part of the secret realm.

This was also the reason why the Penglai Immortal Isle Lord later hunted them down.

These details from the original story flashed through Xiao Shou’s mind.

Understanding the reason, he let out a bitter smile.

It seemed he would be separated from the others.

He knew his luck would not be that good.

Trouble was bound to come again.

With a sigh, he casually chose a direction and walked forward.

When he encountered the first crack, he prepared both defensive and offensive measures, took a deep breath, and stepped into it.

In an instant, the white expanse around him disappeared and it was replaced by bright sunlight.

No, it was sunlight filtering through thick tree trunks and enormous leaves, casting scattered light below.

A giant forest?

Xiao Shou stared in shock at everything before him.

Since transmigrating to the Heaven Origin Realm, he had already seen all kinds of plants and animals far larger than those in the modern world.

Even a simple foxtail grass could grow to the size of a small tree, and a wild boar could be three times the size of one from his previous life, comparable to mutated beasts after an apocalypse.

He had long grown used to it.

But today, that sense of familiarity was shattered again.

Everything here was enormous.

A single leaf was twice his size.

What kind of absurdity was this?

As for the tree itself, just one branch stretched so high that even when he tilted his head back, he could not see the end of it.

One hundred meters? Two hundred? Or even three hundred?

At that moment, a leaf hanging a few meters above him trembled slightly.

Then, a massive green insect head slowly emerged, its surface gleaming as if embedded with two black gemstones.

The creature glanced at him innocently, then lowered its head and continued chewing on the leaf.

Xiao Shou froze.

This bug’s head actually looked quite similar to a soybean caterpillar from the his previous life or maybe more like a large green caterpillar.

Ah!

Xiao Shou felt like he was about to go insane.

So this was the White Silver Secret Realm.

Even a random insect here was bigger than him.

Fear of insects seemed to be an instinct for most people and Xiao Shou was no exception.

He stood there stiffly and not daring to move at all.

He was afraid that the giant bug might suddenly take an interest in him and try to take a bite.

After standing there for quite a while, the giant caterpillar finished eating the entire leaf and leaving only thick veins behind.

It then casually twisted its massive body and crawled away.

Phew!

It seemed the bug had no interest in him.

The leaves were clearly far more appealing.

Thank goodness for insect instincts.

Xiao Shou patted his chest in relief and stepped forward, preparing to find a way out of this place.

But after only a few steps, he suddenly heard a rustling sound above him, like countless leaves being shaken by the wind, except the sound was amplified many times over.

Thinking of the massive insect from before, Xiao Shou looked up cautiously.

In an instant, his expression changed drastically.

Across an endless expanse, on countless enormous leaves, one insect head after another emerged.

Their twisted green bodies clung to the foliage and their black gemstone-like eyes now seemed to glow faintly with a dark green light.

When Xiao Shou saw this, he instinctively activated his defensive talismans and protective robe.

At the same moment, countless giant insects opened their mouths and shot thick streams of white substance toward him.

Xiao Shou hurriedly used his movement technique to dodge, but he had no real combat experience.
