The so-called "secret realm" means secret, unknown, and realm means independent space.
Most of the secret realms were opened up by our predecessors, some for trials, some for treasure hunting, and some for military purposes.
But no matter what the situation is, the purpose is to allow outsiders to come in, so there will be a certain logic to follow in the mechanism.
In addition, there are a few secret realms that are naturally formed. Most of these secret realms do not follow logic, and even have very bizarre mechanisms that are impossible to understand.
For example, in the secret realm of the East China Sea Palace, the cultivators can roughly summarize that there are six levels and what the test contents are after walking through it a few times.
But in a naturally formed secret realm, it is difficult to summarize - everyone who enters the ruins encounters different things, so how to summarize?
Unknown first, unexpectedness first, risk first, this is the innate relic.
The three-day deadline was up, and everyone followed the beautiful female island owner to the top of the central mountain range of the island.
In addition to the ancestors of the demon tribes, there were also many young demon tribes who arrived later, some had already transformed, some had not yet transformed, some were large demon tribes, some were small demon tribes, all kinds of races stood here, it was a riot of demons.
Qin Ye and Gui Ling'er stood beside him and quietly introduced the monsters of various races to Long Long:
"That fat guy, did you see him? He's from the Zhongzhou Ox Tribe, his name is Meng Yi, he's not very smart, and he gets angry easily, so try to ignore him."
"That tall woman, from the Kun tribe of Beizhou. What is her true form? Guess. Hehe, it's actually a pangolin."
"The long-haired man at the edge is from the Xizhou Leopard Tribe. He is cruel and murderous. None of us here like him very much."
Qin Ye and Gui Ling'er commented on each person, and Long Long carefully wrote down the appearance and corresponding names one by one.
Finally, as everyone stepped back, it meant that the secret realm was about to be opened.
I saw the ground beneath my feet suddenly shaking, and soon the entire mountain split into two sides, revealing a huge, terrifying crack in the middle.
The beautiful female island owner did not hesitate and stepped into the crack first, falling down.
Not wanting to be left behind, everyone jumped into the crack.
Since Long Long had already entered the transformation stage, he naturally became the leader of this small group and led the other four into the abyss.
As the altitude rapidly decreased, the surrounding rock walls also rose rapidly and the light quickly dimmed. After a brief estimation, Long Long confirmed that he and his group had fallen below sea level.
Everyone continued to fall aimlessly. After an unknown amount of time, Long Long suddenly felt someone pushing him forward from behind.
He staggered suddenly, lost his balance, and fell into a certain space.
Long Long suddenly came back to his senses and found himself sitting upright on the throne, leaning lazily with his chin supported by one hand.
Next to the emperor's throne was the slightly smaller throne for the queen, on which a mature dragon fox was sitting with his hands neatly placed on his knees.
The demon lords below stood in five rows, all of them were armed with sharp weapons and looked murderous.
Long Long swept his eyes over the crowd and saw Gui Ling'er, with a confused look on her face, standing in a row with the Kun tribe leaders, while Qin Zhou and Qin Ye, brother and sister, with serious looks on their faces, stood in a row with the Lin tribe leaders.
"Black Turtle Clan Leader." One of the scale tribe members looked at Gui Ling'er with an unfriendly expression and asked gloomily, "What do you have to say?"
"What's going on?!" Gui Ling'er shouted in confusion when she saw everyone looking at her.
As soon as the words fell, everyone saw darkness before their eyes.
When I woke up again, the scene remained unchanged.
Long Long sat on the throne, with Long Hu beside him. The rest of the ministers stood in five rows according to their scales, fur, horns, insects, and feathers. The expressions on their faces varied from solemn to indifferent to suspicious.
"Chief Black Turtle, what do you have to say?" The member of the Scale Clan who had just spoken asked in a hissing voice, spitting out the snake's tongue again.
"I..." Gui Ling'er didn't understand yet, and hesitated again, "I don't know..."
Before he could finish his words, everything went dark again.
Returning to the same scene for the third time, the Scale Clan Leader asked the same question again. This time, Long Long, Long Hu, and the Qin sisters had roughly guessed the mechanism of this puzzle.
To put it bluntly, this should be a story with a pre-written script, and everyone is required to act according to the script.
If you make a mistake, you have to start over.
Gui Ling'er, the silly turtle, also realized that something was wrong, so she just kept silent.
"Why doesn't the Black Turtle Clan leader answer?" the Scale Clan member asked again.
Gui Ling'er remained silent, and then... everything went dark.
When he came back for the fourth time, Long Long suddenly remembered something and asked Kunlun Mirror in his mind:
"A Jing, this seems a bit like the Queen Mother of the West secret realm before! Look around to see if there are any fragments of you?"
"I'm scanning!" Kunlun Mirror also said excitedly, "Even if it's not my fragment, I think it must be something related to the Avenue of Time and Space."
"Well, I can't confirm it now. You try to figure out what the script is, and I'll continue scanning it."
What script? There is absolutely no clue. How am I supposed to figure it out?
Long Long was secretly complaining when he saw Gui Ling'er looking at him with tears in her eyes for help.
This little girl's brain really isn't working well. No wonder the Xuanwu Immortal specifically asked me to take care of her... Long Long secretly laughed in his heart and said majestically:
"Black Turtle Patriarch, judging from what you said, do you have any objections?"
"Yes..." Gui Ling'er was also confused and could only answer subconsciously.
There is no do-over. In other words, the Black Turtle Clan leader she played was indeed an antagonist in the script.
As for who they are opposing or what issue they are opposing, no one knows.
But how can this be difficult for me? Long Long sneered in his heart, looked at the scale tribe who had just questioned Gui Ling'er, and said slowly:
"It seems that some of the ministers still don't understand. Perhaps I didn't explain it clearly enough before? Explain it to them again."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The scale tribe member immediately said excitedly, "I emphasize again: if we want to counterattack the human world, now is the best time."
"The human race has been in civil strife for many years, with the major sects attacking each other, and the human race has been in decline as a whole."
"If we miss this window of time, a powerful person will surely appear in the future to integrate the fragmented human race. By then, it will be too late to counterattack the human world!"
The Scale Clan member spoke with great pride, and the others finally understood the general idea.
In other words, the emperor played by Long Long wants to conquer the human world and is currently mobilizing internal ideologies.
The leader of the Black Turtle tribe, played by Gui Ling'er, and the forces she represents behind her, oppose the emperor's decision to go to war.
Gui Ling'er suddenly realized what was going on, and saw the scale tribe member coldly asking her:
"I wonder if Black Turtle Patriarch has understood? Or does he have any other ideas?"
Gui Ling'er was about to speak, but Long Long was afraid that she would not think before she spoke and would say something out of place, so he interrupted her immediately:
"Where are the others? Leader Qilin, I see you seem to have something to say?"
The horned Qilin leader sighed quietly and said in a muffled voice:
"Since Your Majesty has asked for my opinion, I can only tell you the truth: If you have the right time but not the right place and people, a rash cross-border counterattack will only lead to disaster!"
The ministers were immediately shocked upon hearing this.
Long Long immediately pretended to be furious and slapped the armrest of the emperor's throne heavily.
Hmm? This voice is familiar...
He suddenly realized that the old Qilin who spoke in a buzzing voice as if there was an echo in his chest seemed to be the Qilin who slept at the gate of the palace in the Donghuang Dao sect in southern Xinjiang all day long!
