These senior and junior sisters of the Great Cold Sect had originally reached the cultivation level of the Mahayana Realm. Not to mention outside the secret realm, even within the Pan Gu secret realm, such a cultivation level would be considered an absolute master.

As for how a sect outside the secret realm could nurture disciples of such high cultivation, Ye Fan hadn’t grasped the specifics yet and couldn’t say for sure. But one thing Ye Fan knew was that beyond the mountains there are more mountains, and beyond people, more people. Even outside the secret realm, there are many places dense with spiritual energy, which are very suitable for human cultivation.

"Senior sister, what should we do? We seem to be about to die!" The junior sister appeared very panicked, clearly lacking experience in communicating and interacting with others. After encountering a strong man like Ye Fan, she assumed Ye Fan would surely want to kill her.

The senior sister appeared very arrogant and said, "Don’t worry, even if he kills us, our Great Cold Sect will not let this person go. The sect disciples will avenge us! Sir, you’d best be sensible; our Great Cold Sect disciples won’t spare you unless you release us and then go to our sect to apologize. Otherwise, you’ll surely die!"

"What audacity!" Master Mingye sneered, "You’re merely people who haven’t ascended yet. What is this Great Cold Sect? Since there is such a strong sect base, why isn’t there a single disciple of yours in the Immortal Realm?"

The senior sister said, "You’re talking nonsense! Our Great Cold Sect disciples have historically had more than six hundred people cultivate and ascend. How could there be no ascended ones? Hmph, trying to attack our Great Cold Sect, you’re not qualified!"

Master Mingye glanced at Ye Fan and said, "You’re probably wondering if I’m bluffing them? Actually, I’m not. I’ve truly never heard of this Great Cold Sect before. Back then, the Immortal Realm and Human Realm weren’t connected yet. Those who had cultivation above ascension would clearly state their identity and origin. They had no need to hide. If they say they don’t exist, they truly don’t!"

Ye Fan nodded and said, "I haven’t heard of the Great Cold Sect either. Not even the ancient sect scrolls have recorded this sect, yet it’s unknown why these two ordinary disciples from the Great Cold Sect have such high cultivation. Judging by their cultivation, ascension shouldn’t be difficult, especially since they aren’t very old and probably aren’t core disciples of the Great Cold Sect."

"Who exactly are you? Why do you speak as if you returned from the Immortal Realm? What qualifies you to speak like this? In the Immortal Realm, it’s also our Great Cold Sect disciples who are in charge. If you truly came back from the Immortal Realm, how could you not know? Humph!" The senior sister said smugly.

Master Mingye angrily cursed, "Frog at the bottom of a well!"

She no longer wanted to comment on the matters concerning this Great Cold Sect, but Master Mingye seemed very interested in the bodies of these two female cultivators. Master Mingye said, "Ye Fan, these two girls look decent and their cultivation isn’t low. You actually lack a cauldron by your side, why not keep these two around? Why must you constantly target me? Why not just use these two as a cauldron!"

"What? A cauldron? You two demons, it turns out you practice evil arts. No wonder upon seeing you, you appear like rodents..." The senior sister scolded.

Ye Fan approached, carefully sized up the two female cultivators, and nodded, "Indeed, their aptitude isn’t bad. But if they want to become my cauldron, I’m afraid they’re still not qualified. What I need to do now is find this Great Cold Sect. I really want to see what kind of sect it is that can remain hidden from the world for so long. This place should also be where I can temporarily take shelter!"

...

...

Ye Fan directly gaining the location of the Great Cold Sect from these two female disciples was almost impossible. However, Ye Fan’s cultivation was above the realm of ascension, even surpassing that of Master Mingye, who could defeat a great immortal noble like Zhang Tian. Dealing with these two female cultivators was still very easy for Ye Fan.

Ye Fan merely attempted to use his cultivation to try attacking the two female cultivators. They felt an immense pressure as if their spiritual power could collapse. Ye Fan’s spiritual attack on them was also extremely terrifying.

"Ah? Devil, what are you going to do?" At this point, the two female disciples wished they could die themselves, unwilling to endure the punishment before them.

Ye Fan said, "Speak up. Where is your Great Cold Sect? If you refuse to say, then I’ll have no choice but to kill you, letting you know the pain of death, or let you continue enduring the ordeal before you. I can make you endure for tens of thousands of years, even hundreds of thousands of years... unable to live or die!"

"Devil, I will not tell you..." The senior sister seemed to have little ability but had a tough mouth. Even under Ye Fan’s severe torture, she could still keep secrets.

Ye Fan surveyed the other junior sister, whose cultivation had only just reached the Mahayana Realm, clearly not as strong mentally as her senior sister. Under Ye Fan’s torment, she quickly showed signs of spiritual collapse and said, "I’ll speak. I’ll take you to our Great Cold Sect. Just stop tormenting me..."

Ye Fan then stopped the attack. The senior sister glared at her junior sister, "Junior sister, how could you do such a thing? Now that we’re facing enemies, you actually betray the sect?"

"Senior sister, I really couldn’t handle it. Your cultivation is high, but I’m not as strong. I’ll still lead them, I don’t want to die!" The junior sister said weakly.

Ye Fan squinted his eyes, thinking, "These two female disciples have good aptitude, but if you say they’re completely exceptional, that’s not necessarily the case. Ping Han’s aptitude is higher than theirs, but Ping Han’s cultivation isn’t as high as theirs. Evidently, it’s not because the cultivation technique of the Tianxuan Sect is inferior to this so-called Great Cold Sect. Quite clearly, there are other reasons!"

"Junior sister, I’m truly amazed by you!" Although the senior sister seemed very disappointed, she apparently felt relieved, because she herself wouldn’t hold out much longer. Now that her junior sister had betrayed the sect, it meant many things no longer needed to be done by her, allowing her reputation to be preserved. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

The junior sister said, "Senior sister, as long as they go to our sect, won’t they still die? The elders in the sect absolutely won’t let them go!"

"Alright, got it!" The senior sister appeared very disappointed, but actually, she was secretly pleased, as she no longer had to bear the pain of sect punishment.

Master Mingye said, "What are you waiting for? Take us to your sect. If there are disciples with better cultivation inside, let them be cauldrons, how many female disciples would be welcome, the higher the cultivation the better!"

"You two are so shameless; you must have stolen someone else’s cultivation to achieve your accomplishments today. You’ll die badly!" The senior sister scolded.

"Whether we deserve death has nothing to do with you!" Master Mingye had a bit of a bully’s tone "You’re in his hands, do you think there’s still a free day to live?"
