Chapter 192 - Entering The Dungeon and The

As Ling Yi walked towards the Divine Union’s temporary camp, he was thinking about how he should inform them.

When he was outside, he suddenly saw a gentle-looking middle-aged man with black-rimmed glasses sleeping against a big tree.

‘The Black Tortoise envoy!’

The appearance of the four messengers of the Divine Union was posted on the Divine Union’s official website, so Ling Yi recognized them.

The handsome middle-aged man sleeping under the tree was one of the four messengers of the Divine Union, the Black Tortoise’s messenger, Zhou Ziwen!

It was said that he was a lazy and sleepy person. He was the opposite of the Vermillion Bird envoy, who was always active in battle.

Ling Yi didn’t get close. Instead, he activated [Prying Fate] to check the other’s fate.

[June 20th: To capture Sheng Futian, they entered the great dungeon ‘Temple of the Earth God’. They would then engage in a fierce battle in the center of the arcane realm and provide assistance.

[After the Shadow King, who followed the Gale Sword Saint, killed him, he joined forces with Sheng Futian to deal with him. They successfully delayed the two of them and Luo Yuan arrived.]

[Luo Yuan has used the space domain to isolate the inner and outer space.]

[Both parties will work together to fight against the Shadow King and Sheng Futian. This will last until the time limit of the secret realm is up.]

‘Mm… It seems like I don’t need to worry about it.’

Ling Yi heaved a sigh of relief after seeing the fate of the Black Tortoise emissary.

If he let nature take its course and left it alone, these powerhouses would end up in a deadlock by themselves. As long as he didn’t get close, it was as if these people weren’t present and nothing would happen.

…

When it was 12 o ‘clock in the afternoon, the players immediately rushed into the entrance of the secret plane.

There was no order to speak of.

Ling Yi and Yunji didn’t separate themselves from the crowd either.

After a while–

Standing on a rugged rocky ground, Yunji seemed to have thought of something and suddenly said happily, “Ah, right! I remember now!”

She quickly scanned her surroundings and saw that everyone was scurrying away and no one was paying attention to them. She moved closer to Ling Yi’s ear and whispered, “A few years ago, someone obtained the A-grade material, [Universe Origin Qi], in this dungeon. At that time, it was said that it was in a cave.”

“A cave?”

“That’s right. I heard that there are many mechanisms in this cave, and you can get a lot of good things after clearing it…However, I heard that this location was sold to a certain power, and then there was no more news about it.”

Ling Yi immediately recalled the Gale Sword Saint’s fate.

If he was not mistaken, it mentioned a mysterious cave too.

It was located at the bottom of the cliff in the southeast.

“If there are no other caves in this dungeon, then I know where it is.”

“Oh?”

Yunji’s small mouth was wide open in shock. Although she didn’t know where Ling Yi got the information from, she didn’t ask further. Instead, she said happily, “Then let’s go!”

“Okay,”

The two of them, one in front and one behind, flew towards the southeast.

With his powerful perception, Ling Yi quickly found a cliff and found a relatively hidden cave in the middle of the cliff.

“I found it! Follow me closely!”

After a few breaths.

And after passing through a small hole that was only the width of two people, the two of them entered the cave in the rock wall.

It was a small space with an area of about 20 square meters and a height of about two meters.

Yunji, who was tall and had long legs, was standing there. Her hair was only a Palm’s length away from the ceiling.

There was a stone door in front of them, which was obviously the entrance to the cave.

“Sh*t… It’s actually sealed?”

There was also a stone lock on the stone door, and the two of them looked at the stone lock with a dumbfounded expression.

“This… I’ve never heard of anyone needing a key… Could it be that the key is somewhere hidden in the dungeon?” Yunji made a hypothesis.

“It’s most likely so.”

“Then, we…”

“Maybe I have a way!”

In Ling Yi’s field of vision, there was a line of system information.

[Indestructible Stone Lock — Mutation Potential: Low]

‘Locks need a special key to open. If I can mutate it and make its internal structure simple enough, I can just use a wire to open it.’

He had never tried to mutate an item with a ‘low’ mutation potential, but he could try it now.

“System, mutate this stone lock!”

The stone locket in front of him gradually blurred.

At this moment, Yunji, who had been staring at the stone locket, was stunned for a moment before she blinked and rubbed her eyes.

‘Looks like the item’s blurriness is only applied to the item itself, so others can see it too.’ Ling Yi noted.

This was the first time he had mutated something in front of others.

“Eh? Did you see that? I can’t see the stone locket clearly, but it’s back to normal now!” Yunji saw that the stone lock in her eyes had recovered and quickly pointed at it as she spoke to Ling Yi.

“What just happened?”

Ling Yi smiled and turned his head to ask her, “Do you have any needles on you?”

“Oh… Needles? I think I have them, let me look for them.”

Yunji nodded and didn’t think much about it. She opened her backpack and started looking for it.

However, at that moment, Ling Yi could sense several figures flying down from the cliff and heading straight for the cave entrance.

‘Looks like the Gale Sword Saint and the others are here…’

After a while, a few people passed through the narrow entrance and entered the space.

The leader wasn’t Nangong Han. Instead, it was another middle-aged man that Ling Yi had never seen before.

The uncle was wearing white summer sportswear. There was a slight smile on his slightly determined face as if he was out on an outing.

Ling Yi didn’t recognize her, but Yunji did.

She took out a needle and handed it to Ling Yi. She then looked at the man and said in surprise, “Luo Yuan, head of the Analysis Department of the Treasure Alliance? ”

“You guys are… Yunji and… The Ling Yi who discovered the statue’s ability?”

Luo Yuan was dazed for a moment, but he quickly recognized the two.

Behind him, Luo Yao blinked her cute big eyes as she looked back and forth between the two of them with a curious look in her eyes. ‘Waa! It seems that the two of them are really the rumored couple and have come here to meet!’

Nangong Han, two handsome young men, and an ugly hunchbacked old man came in with them.

To be safe, Ling Yi activated his eyes of truth and scanned the group.

[Luo Yuan (level 90)…]

[Luo Yao (LV18)…]

[Nangong Han (LV90)…]

[Liu Sheng (LV69)…]

[Bluepool (level 62)…]

[Liu Qianyuan (level 90)…]

‘That golden-haired young man is the one known as the number one among the younger generation in Shenxia, Liu Sheng? That’s right, he lives in Yunhai City, where the Beast King just appeared a few days ago.’

‘This old man named Liu Qianyuan is actually level 90? Hm… Wait. What the f*ck!’

It would have been better if he hadn’t looked at it, but the moment he saw Liu Qianyuan’s interface, he was shocked.

Forget about the others, this guy had one more rank attribute than everyone else present!

[Level: Invincible]

‘Invincible level!!?’

‘Could this guy be the Shadow King?’

Ling Yi quickly checked the other’s fate.

[20th of June: He entered the Temple of the Earth God and disguised himself as an old man to follow Nangong Han in order to obtain [True Soul Pill] in a mysterious cave. After leaving the cave, he killed Nangong Han and fought with the Black Tortoise envoy and Luo Yuan who came later.]

‘He’s really the Shadow King…’

The corners of Ling Yi’s mouth twitched, and he was speechless.

The three strongest people in the entire secret realm would all gather here.
