The Howling Moon Snow Wolf was running in the air, and traces of snow kept appearing under its feet, like frost flowers blooming in the air.

Its long tail flutters behind it. The front end is white hair with a scent of frost and snow, and the end turns into misty clouds, just like frosty clouds moving in the sky. It is very beautiful when looking back.

White Fang's movements were extremely agile. After a few leaps and bounds, he had reached the highest point in the entire secret realm, atop a winding and fractured cliff.

It stopped at the top of the cliff, with its cloud-like tail coiled around its side, and let out a long howl towards the vast sea of ​​bamboo.

“Ouch—”

The distant howl of wolves echoed in the air, and a gust of wind blew in the secret realm, causing the bamboo leaves to rustle. The emerald green bamboo leaves stretched out endlessly, forming waves of surging green waves like the sea.

Mu Chuyue tucked her messy long hair behind her ears. After witnessing such a spectacular view, she finally understood why this secret place was named "Canglong Sea".

As the bamboo waves rolled in the wind, it seemed as if a dragon really entered the sea, creating waves in the emerald ocean that never stopped.

The green bamboos here are all companion species of [Yu Yu Fairy Bamboo], which are much tougher and stronger than ordinary bamboos in nature. They are hundreds of feet tall, with lush green leaves, and can produce Lizhou's famous B-level wood-based extraordinary resource [Yu Yu Bamboo Juice].

There are all kinds of wild extraordinary creatures living in the bamboo forest. Mu Chuyue listened attentively and received reports from other pets through the [Contract Consciousness Induction].

Ellen moved forward along the shadow space and reached the northernmost part of the secret realm. Along the way, he found a clear stream with colorful flowers blooming around it.

The Nightmare Knight felt the rich and active hidden energy from them and could determine that those unique flowers were extraordinary resources above level B.

The situation on Chaoxi's side was much more lively. It had mistakenly entered the territory of the wood-type medium-level warrior race, the Artemisia Leaf Monkey, in the bamboo forest. Now there was a melee. The monkeys rushed over but could not defeat the little bird. They clamored for their leader to come and deal with it.

Mu Huoyue thought about it and decided that the leader of the [Artemisia Leaf Monkeys] should be their evolved form, the [Cang Ye Monkey King] of the wood-type medium monarch race.

The monarch race of the wood element, no matter what level of growth it reaches, is naturally defeated by the Youlingque with fire attribute. Even if the Aiye Monkeys call their leader, they will not be able to defeat Chaoxi, so Mu Chuyue just lets it play by itself.

There is no news from Xiao Meng yet. I wonder if it felt anything in the [dream] of this secret realm.

Mu Chuyue came to her senses and looked at the bamboo sea with surging green waves below the cliff.

The extraordinary resources discovered so far are all around B-level. Although they are not unusable, their effectiveness in impacting the evolution of the imperial race seems to be a drop in the bucket.

The B-level wood resources will undoubtedly be suppressed by the dark attribute in Harvey's body. Mu Huiyue still hopes to find S-level resources to balance it.

It is said that the core of the secret realm of "Canglong Sea" is the wood-attributed growth resource that can continuously regenerate and recover. However, the specific location and method of obtaining it may only be known by [Yu Yuxianzhu], the master of the secret realm, and its beastmaster.

Mu Liuyue will try her best to find the core of this secret realm within the planned time.

The wind blowing through the mountains is very comfortable. The interior of the S-level secret realm is a small world of its own. The flow of time and the distribution of seasons are different from those of the outside world. There is no distinction between day and night inside the "Canglong Sea", and the four seasons are kept in a season suitable for the growth of green bamboo all year round.

Judging from the scenes along the way, there is climate change inside the secret realm. A drizzle ended not long ago, so there are water droplets hanging on the bamboo leaves and the ground is a little muddy. The leaf monkeys will also come out in groups at this time to find food.

Mu Liuyue touched his chin and fell into deep thought.

The core of a secret realm is usually the key to the operation of the small world inside. The green bamboos in the "Canglong Sea" are not stagnant scenery, but extraordinary plants that grow on their own like the golden-leafed phoenix trees. Therefore, these bamboos should also follow the laws of biological growth.

However, after standing here and looking at the panoramic view of the "Canglong Sea", she had an indescribable sense of disharmony, as if something was missing.

This place is full of vigorous vitality, and the weather in the entire secret realm has been adjusted to the most suitable ecology for the growth of green bamboo.

Plenty of sunshine and rain, no darkness and cold, no drought and heat...

"Ga--" the crow perched on my shoulder suddenly called out.

(I can't sense any breath of [withering]...Hirazuki.) Mu Hiirazuki suddenly realized what made her feel uncomfortable.

In this endless sea of ​​bamboo, there is only the power of [growth] but no power of [withering].

Since these green bamboos are real extraordinary plants, it is impossible for them to grow endlessly even if they are in an S-level secret realm.

After reaching the end of [growth], it [withers] and is reborn as a bamboo shoot tip, or turns into nutrients in this secret realm to provide energy for subsequent [growth]. This is the life cycle that conforms to the laws of nature.

The [growth] energy of the wood element is also a force that brings about change. The concept of [growth] cannot exist independently. Any life in [growth] will inevitably reach the end.

In this regard, Harvey, as an extraordinary wood-type creature, possesses an almost instinctive sensitivity.

Thinking of this, Ruo Meng's belated voice rang out in the [Contract Consciousness Sensing].

[Mmm~] (I have seen the end of these green bamboo dreams~)

Xiao Meng said briskly.

[Meng Mu? 】(Nightmare Knight should be finding that place soon?)

Before it finished speaking, Eren's voice also rang out in the contract induction.

[Click...] (The shadow space here is indeed a bit strange...)

[Click.] 】 (You can come and see it too, Hiiragi, near the waterfall at the end of the stream.)

The end of the creek...

Mu Chuyue looked up at the vast emerald ocean, and then found a winding stream in it.

Looking from this distance, it looks like a long thin thread, but it miraculously separates the raging waves of green bamboo into two sides.

She patted the soft, thick fur beneath her body and said, "Come on, White Fang, let's go to the stream."

The Howling Moon Snow Wolf leaped up again, stepped on the snow, flew over the layers of green waves, and rushed to the end of the stream.

The flow of this stream was very small, but its length was somewhat unexpected. White Fang ran north along the stream for a long time before he saw the place Ellen mentioned.

There is also a cliff there. The river above forms a waterfall due to the huge drop in height. After it falls to the ground, the flow rate becomes much smaller, and it turns from a small river into a small stream.

Mu Huiyue saw the Nightmare Knight standing above the river, and asked White Fang to go over and meet Eren.

There is indeed something strange about this area. There is not a single bamboo around the waterfall, only withered yellow and light gray rocks.

Xiao Meng suddenly appeared from invisibility, and lay back on the Beastmaster's shoulder, with her round transparent fins standing upright, pointing to the location behind the waterfall.

Mu Shuyue asked thoughtfully: "The end of the dream you felt, and the place where Eren felt something was wrong, are they all here?"

She received affirmative responses from her two pets. After a little thought, Mu Huiyue asked Bai Ya to temporarily freeze the water flow and open a passage to the back of the waterfall.

Howling Moon Snow Wolf released [Zero Degree Breath] on the spot, and the snow-white ice quickly froze the stream beneath its feet and spread upward along the water source.

White Fang then swung out a claw, smashing the frozen waterfall into pieces, revealing the entrance to the cave behind.

Mu Liuyue walked in with her pets.

The seemingly small and dark cave actually has a lot of secrets inside. After walking forward for a while, the view suddenly becomes wider.

This is a vast and desolate land. For a moment, it seemed as if the world had turned upside down. On the other side of the waterfall cave, a scene completely different from the outside world appeared.

It is no longer the vibrant green bamboo sea under the mountain mist, but a dead place filled with the smell of decay and no grass growing.

The top of the cave is connected to the night sky. In the dark blue night sky, stars are dotted, flashing a faint and distant light. A bright moon hangs high above. The moonlight is cut by the shape of the cave ceiling, forming a soft light band that falls on the wilderness.

Mu Chuyue showed a look of slight surprise. She smelled the dry bamboo fragrance mixed with the stench of dead bones, extending from her feet to the distance where she could not see the bottom.

This wilderness is made up of the remains of all living creatures in the secret realm, and is the end of all growing things.

No wonder there is only a lively scene in the "Canglong Sea". It turns out that the "withered" side is placed here.

A summoning array with six layers of imperial patterns appeared in front of her. After the faint light faded, the real body of the Night Demon Scarecrow took the initiative to leave the [farmland] of the Beast Taming Space for once and appeared in the outside world.

Harvey was stationed in this wilderness of dead bones and corpses, his huge body swaying gently in the night breeze.

"rustle--"

It made a sound like an exclamation.

The atmosphere of this wilderness is actually very similar to the "withered wasteland" of the withered spirit deer. Harvey was born in the land of death, but he yearns for the most vibrant harvest scene.

However, the grand scene of harvest does not exist directly. Before that, there are crops growing vigorously and seeds accumulating nutrients in the dark, waiting to break through the soil.

Even earlier, there was a batch of ripe fruits that completed their harvest mission, withered and then became nutrients for the soil.

The growth energy of the wood element is an important part of the life cycle, and the same goes for corruption and withering.

This is the necessary cycle for life to move towards [harvest].

The abundant wood energy spread out from the Night Demon Scarecrow, creating vibrant green ripples in the desolate dead land.

Harvey used his long-accumulated [Harvest] skill in this wilderness.

The land made of dead bodies was soaked, and bits of life began to emerge.

A seed sprouted in the soil, and soon grew branches and roots, forming a strange plant that was crooked like a bonsai but had no leaves.

There is no sign of life in this plant, but it stands tenaciously in the wilderness, confronting the night demon scarecrow from afar.

It did not stop [growing]. Under the influence of the [Harvest] energy, a round and plump fruit miraculously grew on the dry branch, forming a sharp contrast with the dead silence around it.

Mu Chuyue widened her eyes slightly. This was the core of the secret realm of "Canglong Sea", the S-level wood resource [Yu Yu Jie Shi].
