Gu Nancheng had fought his way to the very end. The fence was gone, and a tall, ghostly monster suddenly appeared in front of him, its entire body wreathed in ghostly flames.

Fang Ruotang looked back and saw that the will-o'-the-wisp that had been chasing them was gone, as if it had now merged into the ghost.

"I don't know if this will-o'-the-wisp is the same one from before, but when you hit it, you'd better not get your hands on the flames."

Fang Ruotang wasn't quite sure how powerful this will-o'-the-wisp was, but since it could be used by ghosts and monsters, it must be able to harm them.

"Okay, stand back a little so you don't get splashed by the fire."

Gu Nancheng kept staring intently at the tall ghost in front of him and noticed that the ghost fire on his body was as if it were alive, like lava, constantly flowing and even falling to the ground.

The ground was made of some unknown material, pitch black and impossible to see, and the lava disappeared silently after falling in.

It didn't seem harmful, but Gu Nancheng didn't see it that way, thinking that if the lava splashed on him, it would be a different story.

"Okay, be careful, I'll protect you."

As Fang Ruotang retreated, she did not forget to give Gu Nancheng confidence.

Gu Nancheng estimated that the ghost in front of him was just covered in flames, which was a bit troublesome, but it shouldn't pose a threat to him.

However, he was still very happy to hear Fang Ruotang's words. He was being very cautious, but suddenly turned around, leaned close to Fang Ruotang, and kissed her fair cheek hard.

"I will do my best."

Fang Ruotang noticed the dampness on her cheeks and refrained from wiping it off immediately. She said, half-laughing and half-crying, "Hurry up and go! Look how disrespectful you are to him, he's angry."

Fang Ruotang wasn't just saying it casually. The ghost that was waiting to be attacked suddenly had its flames grow bigger, which meant it was angry.

"Could this ghost have never found a wife in his previous life and remained single all this time?" Gu Nancheng joked, but then turned and charged forward with a cold expression, sword in hand.

Fang Ruotang then secretly wiped her cheeks clean.

After being kissed on the cheek or lips, leaving a moist feeling, she always liked to wipe it off, but she could only do so secretly.

Because if she wipes it, people will stare at her like she's a heartless person, so now she can only wipe it secretly behind their backs.

The dark corridor was not wide, and the ghosts were large, so Gu Nancheng attacked them using a kite-flying technique.

After several moves, he quickly found the monster's weakness. He then threw several items as hidden weapons. The fire on the monster's body was truly powerful; anything that touched it was instantly burned to ashes.

After figuring things out, Gu Nancheng didn't waste any more time. He summoned his sword, flew over, killed the ghost, and the flying sword turned and returned to his hand, reverting to its original form.

As the ghost died, a fiery red bead fell to the ground.

"What is this?" Gu Nancheng didn't rush to pick it up, but asked the small mirror first.

The little mirror saw the flowing lava inside the bead and answered with absolute certainty.

This is Phoenix Elixir, capable of burning and melting everything.

[That's amazing?]

Gu Nancheng raised an eyebrow, somewhat pleased. After passing two levels, he had finally obtained something of some use.

"It's alright! After all, the fire spewed by the adult's Blazing Phoenix also has this effect."

Gu Nancheng: ...

What a waste of your time.

[As I've already said, there's nothing of value in here for you. Your main purpose is to hone your skills; don't think about anything else.]

The little mirror was speechless.

He already told them the result, but they still don't believe him and are still hoping to open the blind box!

He checked the timeline and found that no one who had ever entered this secret realm in the past had ever obtained a better treasure than the one in his treasure bag.

"That's good! We can give it to my sisters later. If they can't beat the enemy one day, they can throw this at them. It's a life-saving backup plan."

Fang Ruotang thought it was pretty good.

She has three older sisters in the Cloud Depth Continent!

Only the eldest sister has the Blazing Phoenix, while the other two sisters do not.

Fang Ruotang picked it up and put it into her treasure bag.

He pulled Gu Nancheng along to the next level.

The third level was also pitch black, and the illumination beads came in handy once again.

Not far from them, a butterfly emitting an eerie glow fluttered its wings incessantly, but did not fly towards them.

"Are we going to kill that butterfly?"

Gu Nancheng glanced around; there was nothing there.

The ground was still pitch black, no different from the previous level, so there were probably no traps. But he couldn't be completely sure, so he always stood one body length ahead of Fang Ruotang.

"About that!"

Fang Ruotang looked around and noticed that the butterfly was constantly shedding its powder.

"Pay attention, the powder that this butterfly sheds is probably not ordinary."

"good."

Just like in the previous test, Gu Nancheng did not rush forward. However, he did not know that in this test, he did not even need to go forward. He had already been tricked the moment he was sent over.

Approaching at this point would only mean falling completely into a trance.

Fang Ruotang's expression suddenly changed when she saw Gu Nancheng's expression change, becoming... extremely flirtatious.

At that moment, the fairy flute in his hand fell off. No one knows what he saw, but he wrapped his arms around it, pouted, and tried to kiss it.

At that moment, the butterfly suddenly transformed into a ghost woman in red.

Fang Ruotang frowned, drew her sword, and shot it at the red-clothed ghost woman. The powerful spiritual energy was something that a ghost like her, who was skilled in illusion, could not resist.

The woman in red had no chance to resist; she was pinned to the wall by the sword, her body vanishing instantly, and finally turning into a butterfly that had been pierced and stuck to the wall.

A stone fell to the ground; it was entirely black, but it would shed colorful powder, which was quite beautiful.

Fang Ruotang only glanced at it and did not rush to collect the spoils. Instead, she pulled Gu Nancheng, who had already started to take off his clothes.

But when she reached out and pulled, Gu Nancheng wrapped himself around her like an octopus, as if he had finally caught his prey, and tightly bound her.

Fang Ruotang stretched her neck with difficulty, dodging Gu Nancheng's lips that were trying to kiss her.

What's wrong with him?

[He's clearly under an illusion, and he's probably dreaming about making love with you! Look at how eager he is.]

Fang Ruotang was speechless and pressed down on Gu Nancheng's hand.

How to solve this?

Let him vent his anger, that will be fine.

Fang Ruotang looked around at the surroundings and asked with a dark expression.

[Is this something people say?]

Look at this yourself, is this a place where you can get things done?

Fang Ruotang was speechless and pressed for an answer with a harsh look.

Is there no other way?

Yes, let him suffocate.

【Haven't I scolded you in a long time? Have you gotten arrogant?】

The little mirror felt wronged.

At this moment, the other five people spoke up in unison.

What's wrong with you guys?

Fang Ruotang paused, forgetting that she hadn't hung up the call, which made things even more awkward.
