The secret realm has been open for several days now. Some people were lucky enough to be teleported out because they went to the wrong place, while others voluntarily gave up the opportunity to continue exploring.
Back at Tianshui Lake, Jin Xiya felt much more at ease. In any case, the objective had been achieved, and a sufficient amount of mineral resources had been harvested; the loss of personnel was almost negligible.
Their entire exploration group's appearance attracted a lot of attention. The archmages searched them briefly, finding only ordinary items, and after a few simple questions, they were released.
There isn't even enough time to cross the middle area.
Seeing so many high-ranking officials conducting the inspection, Jin Xiya sighed, hoping everything went smoothly for Luo Fan and his group. With Luo Fan's strength, the probability of him obtaining the Fountain of Life was quite high.
But if these people rob me... no, that guy is very clever, he'll definitely find a way to get rid of me. I'd better go back and take care of my own business.
Those women all want to order high-level magic staffs, so I'll be busy for quite a while.
On Luo Fan's side, after several days of trekking, they finally crossed the lush forest and found the entrance to the next level.
During this time, he dealt with several short-sighted forces, completely shook off Caitlin's guards, and also found a lot of spiritual materials.
Little Grey has gained weight while eating as he walks; the food is just too good.
High-level magical beasts frequently become its food, making it difficult for it not to grow up. Ahri's spirit fox has also eaten many treasures and has now grown to level 25, spending all day in the pet space digesting excess energy.
No one knows how it survived in the secret realm; the little guy doesn't seem to have been born for very long.
As for Luo Fan, his wood-elemental clone was also successfully formed. He killed several tree pythons, and with the help of that drop of pure wood spirit liquid, his wood-elemental clone, Mu Mu, has now reached level 60.
Currently, the only element missing from the Five Elements is metal, and we haven't found a solution yet. If we could also create thunder and light, then we would have all nine basic attributes.
Passing through the spatial barrier, the surrounding scenery instantly changed, becoming pitch black with almost no light.
"Have I arrived in a dark world?" Luo Fan curiously looked around at the energy. It was predominantly dark and carried the unique stench of the Demon Abyss.
Soon, the surroundings were illuminated. The environment here looked like the underground city from back then, with a huge, bottomless cave appearing before them.
“This should be the entrance to the Elemental Maze,” Caitlin explained. “There are magical beasts of various attributes inside, including abyssal beasts, so everyone must be careful.”
"Brother Fan, we want to help too!" The level 65 Snow Maiden also became one of the main forces in this operation, and Xianxian next to her also looked eager to try.
"You can handle the mid-level magical beasts."
"no problem."
Although he didn't want these pretty girls to do anything, Luo Fan still didn't want to refuse their request.
The setup remained the same: Little Grey pulled the flying car, but managed to pull Ahri off it. Angela and Tifa's pets were also put into the pet space; this place wasn't suitable for them to play around.
On the other side.
It was the same forest as before. Anya and her group returned to the area, still feeling a bit scared.
Dozens of mages quickly disappeared without a trace, only sending back news of the appearance of void beasts and urging her to escape quickly.
What kind of void beast could possess such power, or was it part of Caitlin's plan? If it truly is that woman's backup plan, then it's terrifying.
In an environment like the secret realm, even a Grand Magister couldn't kill so many Dark Magisters at the same time, let alone the fact that Grand Magisters couldn't even get in.
If it really is her, how did she manage to do it? Could it be that they are hiding some special power that allows them to enter this secret realm?
Impossible. After investigating for so long and making so many preparations, it's absolutely impossible for such a change to happen.
Unable to figure out the reason, she deliberately stayed where she was and rested for a long time before stepping back into the forest area.
Since we can't figure it out, let's continue the investigation. No matter what, we must find the bodies of those archmages; perhaps some of them have escaped.
Under her arrangement, the hundreds of people, with the mages looking out for each other, cautiously probed forward.
Meanwhile, Luo Fan's team was rapidly moving through the corners of the cave, specifically targeting those reckless individuals who dared to challenge them.
Inside the cave, even the weakest creatures possessed the strength of mid-tier magical beasts. Little Grey, a level 47 Earth Bear, was a prime target, a low-tier monster roaming freely within.
When it roars inside, it attracts even more attacks, making it a perfect target for taunting.
With Xiaoxue and Xianxian's magical cooperation, plus Luo Fan leading the other girls to harvest the monsters, even Ahri killed a high-level magical beast, making for a fantastic experience.
"Ellie, is this how you used to clear dungeons?" Toria asked, pulling Ellie along. Fighting monsters like this didn't have the thrill of a desperate battle.
Even when faced with a swarm of level 70 Bloodthirsty Demon Rats, they couldn't break the ice crystal array that Xianxian and Xiaoxue had set up together, let alone the elusive Luo Fan.
Along the way, they also found many elven gems, which Luo Fan collected.
"No, I wasn't this strong before, and I often caused trouble." With the continuous battles and the replenishment of the environment, Ellie's level gradually stabilized.
“Yeah, I’ve seen several beast tides before,” Daisy interjected, occasionally throwing ice spikes behind her.
As per Luo Fan's instructions, her foundation was the weakest, and she had to adapt to the changes in her own magic power as soon as possible.
"No wonder you all grew so fast, it's probably all because Luo Fan forced you to." Toria sighed and also honed her martial arts skills.
Following the aura emanating from the Demon Abyss, the group gradually strayed from the correct direction, causing even their guide, Fire Rain, to become somewhat anxious.
"Brother Fan, this isn't the right path!"
"Never mind those things. Since we're here, we should at least see what's inside. The Demon Abyss has always been touted as so mysterious, but I've never actually seen it before."
"Why don't you all just come together?" Considering the dangers here, Luo Fan decided against having them stay put and wait.
"Don't worry, since such a place exists, I suspect it's another quest from the tree spirits. I bet there will be a reward after clearing it out!"
"Okay, then I'll go find Ahri." With that, the little girl ran off to the back.
"Are you confident?" Caitlin leaned closer.
Luo Fan had already explored the area inside, but there was a pool of water, and the depth he could explore was limited. The aura of the Demon Abyss was the strongest inside.
"Give it a try, but you guys need to be careful. I have a feeling it's not as simple as it seems. When I go deeper into the area to explore, remember to look after the others."
"This isn't like you! Could there really be danger?"
"I'm just a little unsure, mainly because I haven't researched the Demon Abyss before. By the way, do you have a purification scroll with you?"
"Hmm, do you want it?"
"That's good. I'll go clean up the mess first. Don't worry about me." With that, Luo Fan vanished. Anyway, with the fireball acting as a divine sense amplifier, it would be easy to come back.
