Chapter 69 – As many as possible

The three Secret Realms were all located around the outskirts of Fengqu City, each in a different place.

Lin Jichen followed Su Wanling all the way to the entrance of the Night Cave Ghost Ridge Secret Realm.

The place was already teeming with people.

From the entrance of the Secret Realm extending out ten miles, it was filled with players from various sects.

Once the Secret Realm opened, everyone was incredibly enthusiastic and rushed to explore it.

The other two Secret Realms were also packed with people.

"Temporary team needs one more magic cultivator! Requirement: Middle stage of Qi Refining, hurry up!"

"Five out of seven, need a body cultivator tank and a healer! Preferably a monk!"

"Need a healer, any cultivation level is fine, just get on board!"

"I'm a newbie, just started playing, Initial stage of Qi Refining, archer, anyone willing to take me?"

"Need one more for a full team, anyone want to join? We have everything, just need a girl, preferably one who can crack dirty jokes, hehe!"

...

The place was bustling like a marketplace, with a distinct game-like atmosphere.

Su Wanling led Lin Jichen straight through the bustling crowd to a spot where a group of beautiful girls had gathered.

Jiang Luoyu was among them. Although the girls around her were all quite attractive, Jiang Luoyu stood out like the moon surrounded by stars, dazzling and eye-catching, easily outshining everyone else with her looks.

The girls who looked pretty good individually seemed dull and unremarkable next to Jiang Luoyu. The scene of so many beauties standing together was stunning.

If it weren't for the privacy settings between players that prevented strangers from getting too close, countless male players would have crowded around long ago.

"Guild Master, I've brought him. You can talk to him now."

After bringing Lin Jichen over, Su Wanling stepped aside, sulking.

Jiang Luoyu found it strange but focused on the task at hand—clearing the Secret Realm.

"Mr. Lin, thank you for coming. If you help us clear the Secret Realm, you can name your conditions."VịSit no(v)3lb/!n(.)com for new novels

Facing the daughter of the richest man, Lin Jichen didn't hold back.

"I have three conditions. First, I want command authority. Once we're inside the Secret Realm, you must follow my instructions without question."

"Of course, that's not a problem."

"Second, I want all the equipment and materials needed for Sword Cultivators and Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment that we find in the Secret Realm."

"That's also fine."

"The third is a personal matter. I want to borrow some funds from you."

"That's even less of a problem. How much do you need? I'll have Wanling transfer it to you," Jiang Luoyu readily agreed.

Even if he couldn't repay, he could always join the Moon Shadow Guild and work off his debt. After all, he was a bachelor with nothing to lose.

With the virtual agreement signed, Lin Jichen's Spirit Stone account suddenly had an additional fifty thousand Spirit Stones, making him the richest player in Tale of Immortal!

Unfortunately, there was no Spirit Stone leaderboard, or he would undoubtedly be number one.

"Alright, I'll repay you within five days. Let's clear the Secret Realm first."

"Okay, we'll follow your lead."

Jiang Luoyu agreed readily and added Lin Jichen to the team, giving him the leader position.

Night Cave Ghost Ridge was a small team dungeon, allowing a maximum of five players at a time.

"You can choose anyone you want. If necessary, I can even leave the team. I just want the guild to clear the dungeon," Jiang Luoyu instructed.

Lin Jichen nodded and pulled up the guild's member list, quickly selecting his team.

He chose Jiang Luoyu, Su Wanling, and two other guild girls.

One was a healer at the Middle stage of Qi Refining named Cao Shiying, and the other was a body cultivator at the later stage of Qi Refining named Li Jinzi.

"Am I going too? My profession is the same as yours, so I won't be much help," Su Wanling was surprised that Lin Jichen chose her. She was also a Sword Cultivator and knew her own limitations.

"It's fine. Night Cave Ghost Ridge is easy to clear and doesn't have strict class requirements. You can just come along and take it easy," Lin Jichen replied without hesitation.

Su Wanling rolled her eyes in frustration, while Jiang Luoyu covered her mouth to stifle a laugh. To avoid upsetting her further, Jiang Luoyu offered some comforting words.

"Hmph, fine, I'll go. But if we fail to clear it because of me, don't blame me," Su Wanling huffed, flipping her short hair with a touch of flair.

With the team set, Lin Jichen, as the leader, headed straight to the Secret Realm entrance.

At the entrance, there was a leaderboard.

It displayed the progress of the top ten teams in clearing the dungeon.

[Eternal Guild]: Hard mode, progress 52%.

[Moon Thief Studio]: Hard mode, progress 50%.

[Remnant Cloud Studio]: Hard mode, progress 49%.

[Polar Day Guild]: Hard mode, progress 47%.

...

The leaderboard clearly showed the progress of various guilds and studios in clearing Night Cave Ghost Ridge.

All were in hard mode. After all, if they couldn't clear hard mode, who would dare to challenge extreme or hell mode?

Lin Jichen glanced at it briefly and lost interest, striding into the Secret Realm.

The remaining four team members were automatically transported inside.

Once inside, Su Wanling screamed.

"Lin Jichen, did you choose the wrong mode? This is hell mode!"
