Chapter 327: Entering the New Type Secret Realm
Half an hour later, everyone stopped in front of a great mountain.
The majestic and grand mountain was enveloped in thick smoke at this time.
Looking into the distance, it felt as if this layer of mist was some kind of barrier, giving people a sense that it couldn't be seen through.
Ye Chen felt a bit surprised; the previous Hell Secret Realm had never given him such a feeling.
This feeling surprisingly made Ye Chen sense a dangerous aura.
Bai Ye was also somewhat shocked.
"Is this the legendary Secret Realm?"
The mountain stretched three hundred miles!
Hao Sheng and several other leaders gathered together, talking about something.
Everyone else gathered around them.
"Are we still going with the usual rules this time?"
"Of course, the usual rules."
"Alright, does anyone have any objections?"
"None!"
It seemed that they reached a consensus, all nodding.
Hao Sheng came before several people and said to Bai Ye, Ye Chen, and the other four, "You guys need to do your best this time. Even if you can't win first place, at least get into the top three, got it!"
"Master, how is this scoring system calculated? Is there any reward for winning?" Bai Ye asked curiously.
The others were also waiting for Hao Sheng's answer, obviously curious.
Hao Sheng replied, "The judging criteria are based on the resources you obtain. The team with the highest score wins. The rewards are a wager between us—don't embarrass me, do you hear!"
"Yes, Master!"
Bai Ye, Hei Ye, and Bai Cha appeared somewhat troubled.
Among so many people, their strength was not particularly advantageous.
Only Hong Ye seemed a bit more composed.
Hong Ye always gave off an indifferent aura.
Hao Sheng nodded and joined the other leaders in front of the Secret Realm.
Everyone joined forces to unleash power at the Secret Realm, tearing open a pathway through the boundless fog.
No one could see what lay inside.
Signaled by Hao Sheng, Ye Chen and the other five stepped forward.
All the teams moved up and stood by the entrance.
Hao Sheng turned to Ye Chen and the others and said, "You go in. Although results are important, safety comes first. It's not safe in there; on the contrary, many powerful monsters live inside, so be careful!"
All six were favored disciples of Hao Sheng and held a significant place in his heart.
The six nodded.
"Stick together, support each other, and protect Ye Chen since his Level is the lowest."
"Don't worry, Master!"
"Alright, then go in!"
Quite a few teams had already gone in.
Ye Chen and the other five advanced, passed through the mist, and entered the Secret Realm.
"Whoa, what's going on? Where did all those people that came in earlier go?"
Bai Ye exclaimed.
Here, those who had entered earlier were nowhere to be seen.
Ye Chen noticed their current position was beside a different mountain.
Clearly, it wasn't the one they saw before since this mountain was black.
Bai Cha voiced his speculation, "Could this be random teleportation? We and those people all arrived at different locations."
"It's quite possible. Right, let's share our Talent Awakenings so we can coordinate better later," Hong Ye said calmly.
Knowing each other's Skills allows for better combat strategy.
"Mine is Frozen; I can freeze someone instantly for three seconds," Bai Ye stated.
Hong Ye smiled and nodded.
Hei Ye said, "Mine is Black Fog, causing the target to be blinded, and a nightmare will directly approach the enemy."
"Mine is Burn!"
"Mine is Rending!"
"Your Talent Awakenings are quite decent. Ye Chen, what about you?"
The five looked at Ye Chen, curious about what a Creation Tier pet Skill would look like.
Ye Chen smiled wryly, "My Skill is pretty useless, it's Treasure Perception. I can distinctly sense the positions of treasures and know their names and locations, but it's limited to only five kilometers."
Once he finished, the five were momentarily dazed.
Even the usually calm Hong Ye was flustered.
"Ahahaha! Heaven truly aids us!"
"Whoa, Treasure Perception?! Your Skill is incredible! It's like a treasure-finding machine!"
Hong Ye's face was flushed as he said, "This time, Ye Chen brother is our key to victory. With your pet's help, our chances of winning have significantly increased!"
"Yes, indeed! The chances of finding treasures will indeed rise, doubling our efficiency!"
"Ye Chen brother, I don't even know how to describe you!"
The group seemed a bit excited.
Their faces and eyes were full of excitement.
It was 8:00 PM, and the Secret Realm was somewhat dark, only allowing visibility up to twenty meters ahead.
Hong Ye, with his hands behind his back, said, "It's normally difficult to find treasures at night, but with Junior Ye Chen's pet, it's different. We can take advantage of the night and establish our advantage."
"Hmm!"
Ye Chen nodded and summoned Genggeng.
Genggeng stretched and said, "Ah, Ye Chen, you haven't bothered with me all day."
Genggeng spoke with a hint of complaint.
"Stop whining, sense the treasures."
Genggeng licked his lips and said, "There's an Experience Flower under your feet, used for brewing Experience Potions."
They lifted their feet and looked down; indeed, there was a flamboyant flower.
The moment Ye Chen looked at the Experience Flower, information automatically appeared.
[Three-color Flower: LV35, main material for brewing Experience Potions, Yellow Tier, brewing completes with 10,000 Experience Value]
"Yellow Tier?"
Ye Chen clicked on the System Mall, found a Treasure Encyclopedia, and exchanged it for 100 Points.
After reviewing it, Ye Chen finally understood.
It turned out that these things are also classified by Tier and Level.
Items brewed from different Levels and Tiers yield different results.
Like this Three-color Flower, the higher its Level and Tier, the more Experience Value it grants.
Of course, the required materials become more precious as well.
There are four tiers: Heaven Earth Profound Yellow.
Hei Ye laughed and said, "Haha, looks like my luck is not bad, stepping on a treasure right away."
Saying so, Hei Ye picked the Three-color Flower and handed it to Hong Ye.
Genggeng said again, "There's a good thing a hundred meters ahead!"
The better the item, the stronger the sensation Genggeng receives.
Hong Ye walked in the front, heading forward.
Three minutes later, under a big tree, they found a monster, but it was only LV29.
Hong Ye's pet went forward and dealt with the monster in a few moves.
Beneath the monster was something resembling a scroll.
Hong Ye picked it up for a look.
[Cangyun Sword Design Map: LV35 Epic Level Weapon Design, required materials include any Divine Artifact weapon, 5 Wind Stones, 5 Superior Bones, 10 Golden Crystal Blocks]
"Hmm? Whoa, a design map, an Epic Level weapon design map. Really a good find!"
