Ice and Fire Forest

The crowd retreated repeatedly, and some unlucky ones were pushed down, instantly swallowed by the mist.

"Ah!"

"Ah!"

Screams echoed from within the mist.

It seemed this mist was dangerous!

"Quick! Don't push! Retreat!"

Ye Chen leaped into the air and retreated backward.

Ye Chen noticed that the mysterious woman remained unmoved, allowing herself to be swallowed by the mist.

Gun Gun whispered, "Boss, no need to run! That mist doesn't do much damage to you. The appearance of the mist means the Secret Realm has appeared; the Secret Realm is inside this mist!"

Hearing Gun Gun's voice, Ye Chen stopped.

Watching the mist approach him step by step, Ye Chen also remained unmoved.

As the mist gradually swallowed Ye Chen, he felt a bone-chilling coldness, as if it also had corrosive properties.

However, this feeling was only fleeting; after a moment, the sensation disappeared.

Gun Gun and the four Blood Asura were released by Ye Chen.

Gun Gun exhaled, and the mist before them was actually blown away by Gun Gun.

"This is an Earth Rank Secret Realm. Those with low strength naturally have no qualifications to enter. As soon as they enter, they will be killed directly by this mist."

Ye Chen looked at Gun Gun curiously, "How do you know?"

"Of course, I am the little Genius Gun Gun!"

Gun Gun gave a proud snort.

"Ye Chen, let's go down. The visibility is clear down below," the Alchemist said indifferently.

Ye Chen nodded and descended.

After arriving below, it was indeed as the Alchemist had said; it was exceptionally clear.

One meter above their heads, the mist drifted constantly, like dark clouds pressing down.

It gave one the feeling of the sky being right overhead.

"Not good! There is danger!" Dark Ji whispered.

Footsteps drew closer and closer, rushing toward Ye Chen and his group.

Ye Chen turned to look and saw over a dozen black hungry wolves rushing toward him.

Before Ye Chen could react, Dark Ji and the Blood Asura had already rushed forward, quickly slaying all the hungry wolves in a few moves.

These hungry wolves were only level twenty-something and posed no danger at all.

Ye Chen walked slowly inside. After ten minutes, the mist above stopped drifting and began to slowly rise.

It stopped when it reached a height of several hundred meters.

It seemed the expansion of the Secret Realm had stopped.

The surrounding environment finally became clearly visible.

The entire surroundings had undergone earth-shaking changes.

Ye Chen looked to both sides and saw two high mountains had appeared. He now seemed to be in a vast valley, and the stone walls overhead were slowly undergoing Fusion.

The valley they were in had turned into a cave, an immensely vast cave.

Rocks appeared one by one, forming strange, craggy shapes!

The flowers and grass growing beside the rocks, along with the rocks themselves, shimmered with specks of light.

"Boss, these are all good things!" Gun Gun shouted.

As Gun Gun spoke, it began to scavenge, occasionally picking up an item and stuffing it into its mouth.

Ye Chen now finally knew what Gun Gun was eating; it was all items of Earth Rank and above!

"Gun Gun! Stop eating! You're eating all the good stuff!"

Gun Gun said while eating, "So what if I eat them? If you give these things to you, you refine them all for Big Sister, Second Sister, and Third Sister to use, and you never give me any. Besides, I found these things. Giving them to them is the same as me eating them!"

As Gun Gun spoke, its mouth was already stuffed full.

"The point is, it's useless for you to eat them!"

"Who says it's useless!"

Ye Chen was speechless and had no choice but to let Gun Gun eat.

All Ye Chen could do was collect some items as quickly as possible.

Scavenging as he walked, he had unknowingly walked several hundred meters, and everything along the way had been completely swept up by Ye Chen.

Just at the place where Gun Gun was devouring things, a group of people appeared.

"Boss! Why is there nothing here!" one person said.

The leader, who had dyed yellow hair, looked around and cursed, "Damn it! Someone has been here; the things here have all been scavenged!"

"Ah! Someone has been here? How is that possible? We were clearly the first to break into this path!"

"Forget it, hurry up and move forward. Damn it, see if we can catch that person!"

Meanwhile, on the outskirts of the Secret Realm.

The mist was shaped like a pot lid, shrouding the Secret Realm.

Small openings appeared around the perimeter of the mist, only large enough for one person to pass through.

"These openings are paths, or rather, traditional passages! Don't fight, don't panic, go in one by one!"

The people from the Law Enforcement Alliance were shouting on the sidelines.

But these people didn't care about that; they still rushed and scrambled to get inside.

By this time, Ye Chen had walked out of the cave.

Everything along the way had been scavenged by Ye Chen. Ye Chen stood in place, estimating his current location.

"Logically, I should have arrived at the sea area by now, but I don't see the sea," Ye Chen said, frowning in confusion.

It seemed this sea area had also been covered by the Secret Realm.

"Gun Gun, can you sense anything?"

Gun Gun shook its head, burped, and said, "Burp, I can't sense anything. There isn't anything within a five-kilometer radius."

"Boss! There's someone there!" A voice sounded behind Ye Chen.

Five people stood behind Ye Chen, panting.

The leader was that same yellow-haired man.

The yellow-haired man cursed, "Damn it, did you brat scavenge all the treasures on this road!"

These five were the same five from before; it seemed they had been sprinting all the way here.

Ye Chen frowned slightly as he looked at them.

LV46, LV47! The yellow-haired man was LV50.

The strength of the five was simply not worth looking at in front of Ye Chen.

Ye Chen couldn't be bothered with the five, so he picked a random direction and walked straight ahead.

His current location was a vast, empty plain, without even a single tree or blade of grass.

"Damn it, I'm talking to you, are you deaf or what!"

The yellow-haired man picked up a Molotov cocktail and threw it directly at Ye Chen.

Boom! The Molotov cocktail burned fiercely in front of Ye Chen.

Ye Chen frowned and called out to the Alchemist.

The Alchemist turned, looked at the five yellow-haired men, and drew the Lieyang Divine Bow in hand. Swish!

A fire arrow exploded in front of the five yellow-haired men, and fierce flames spread toward them.

The five yellow-haired men were terrified and retreated repeatedly, looking at Ye Chen with horror on their faces.

Ye Chen said coldly, "Don't follow me again. If you follow me again, the next time, this arrow will land on your head!"

The yellow-haired man swallowed hard, shaken by the Killing Intent on Ye Chen, and watched helplessly as Ye Chen left.

He didn't even dare to make a peep.

He could clearly feel that if that arrow had hit his head, he would definitely be done for!

Ye Chen walked for nearly half an hour before he could see a forest appear before his eyes.

There was a distinct dividing line in the middle of the forest, half fiery red and half snow white.

This place was called the Ice and Fire Forest.

"Ye Chen, let's go to the Fire Forest first," the Alchemist said.

Ye Chen nodded and walked toward the fiery red forest.

When he was twenty meters away from the Fire Forest, he could clearly feel the scorching heat blowing toward him.
