154: Chapter 154 The Secret Realm Opens

"Let's just wait then. It's not like we're in a hurry anyway," Chu Yaoyao said, clearly unconcerned.

Tao Mumu also expressed the same sentiment. "Mm-hmm, we're not in a hurry... we'll wait for Brother Cheng to arrive before making any plans."

Unfortunately, plans can't keep up with changes; suddenly, the sky was covered with dark clouds accompanied by thunder and lightning.

Then the entire city shook violently, but this vibration only lasted for less than a few seconds.

Everything became very quiet.

"Something happened. Let's go to the city wall and take a look." Gu Na released her Energy Wings and soared directly into the sky.

This Ancient City was surrounded by mountain peaks on all sides; the only exit and entrance... was the city wall.

The city wall wasn't very long, about five or six kilometers. Before long, everyone arrived atop the wall.

There were already many figures on the wall, wearing various outfits, including blonde beauties, handsome men... and so on.

There were also many wearing ancient costumes; it wasn't hard to see that these were outsiders from various places.

"With so many people, why aren't there any Ninth Order experts?" Tao Shuishui suddenly piped up with a question.

Tao Mumu replied quite speechlessly, "My dear sister, can't you learn a bit about the rules?"

"There are definitely Ninth Order experts, but they aren't in the same batch as us who just entered." Chu Yaoyao was very certain about this.

The outsiders were a mixed bag; naturally, some didn't enter at the same time, just like The Four Littles of Super-Ability Academy.

They were already very famous thirty years ago; appearing here now, they must certainly be Ninth Order experts.

They might even be at the Ninth Order Peak.

"What is that thing ahead? Why is it so terrifying?" Gu Na quickly noticed something directly in front of them.

Directly ahead was not some monster or an army of foreign races, but Iron Earthworms traveling through the ground.

These Iron Earthworms varied in size; some were as massive as high-speed trains, with just their exposed heads reaching nearly a hundred meters.

There were also many small ones; regardless of their length, their destructive power was astonishing.

What was originally a rocky area had been turned into land that looked like it could be cultivated for crops.

"They are Devouring Tentacles. No one knows what level of strength they've reached, and even fewer dare to provoke them," Chu Yaoyao said, recognizing them at a glance.

Gu Na said in shock, "Devouring Tentacles, Flying Heaven Stream, Black Iron Silk... I really didn't expect to encounter Devouring Tentacles."

"You're still in the mood to care about that... shouldn't we be thinking about what to do?" Tao Shuishui asked anxiously.

Tao Mumu wasn't worried at all. "Don't be nervous, it won't be a big deal... otherwise, the Ancient City would have been in ruins long ago."

"Mm-hmm, Mumu is right. But I'm quite curious where those rocks came from," Chu Yaoyao said.

Gu Na thought for a moment and said, "Could they have fallen from the sky? And is it possible there's a small sweep every three days and a big sweep every seven days?"

"That's indeed very possible. Let's just watch for now!" Chu Yaoyao didn't think too much about it.

Sure enough, as the Devouring Tentacles were about to crash into the Ancient City, they suddenly turned and passed by from both sides...

Immediately after, countless rocks fell from the sky, and before long, the scene before them returned to its original state, as if nothing had happened.

"Sister Na was actually right. What comes next... is probably the true defense." Tao Shuishui was dumbfounded.

Rocks fell densely from the sky, yet the Ancient City was completely unharmed, as if it were a deliberate arrangement.

"It is indeed quite strange. No matter what... let's see the situation clearly first." Chu Yaoyao stared fixedly ahead.

After a short while, a dense mass of Black Iron Cavalry appeared on the other side again, rushing towards the Ancient City in countless numbers.

On the other side, a hidden hint suddenly popped up for Mu Cheng.

[Thirty kilometers ahead, discovered Ghost Knight army * 100,000, Ninth Order Peak Ghost Knight * 1.]

"It seems the so-called defense has begun. Let me ask Nana what the situation is." Mu Cheng operated his high-tech bracelet to send out information.

A moment later, Gu Na replied, "The Four Littles of Super-Ability Academy are stationed here at the Ancient City. I reckon we won't even need to take action."

"It seems our mission isn't to defend." Mu Cheng thought for a bit, feeling that things weren't as simple as they appeared.

"Brother Cheng... he'll be here soon. I suppose we won't need to act here?" Gu Na said hesitantly.

Not just her, Chu Yaoyao naturally thought so too. "Mm-hmm, we really aren't needed."

Under the gaze of many, an elf girl suddenly came walking through the air.

She looked to be only twenty-three or twenty-four years old, with golden hair reaching her waist, decorated simply with a piece of withered wood, and wearing a magnificent ancient costume.

With a slight smile, she exuded a charming and peerlessly beautiful aura!

"She is Xiao Luolu, one of The Four Littles of Super-Ability Academy. Is she going to face an army of no less than a hundred thousand alone?" Gu Na was stunned.

Chu Yaoyao thought for a moment and said, "It should be fine, right? Let's see how it goes first."

It was impossible to tell what Xiao Luolu's actual strength was, but the other three 'Littles' had not appeared.

This was enough to prove everything; she indeed intended to challenge the entire Black Iron Cavalry army alone.

Xiao Luolu didn't hesitate; she raised her right hand high, and terrifying golden energy erupted from her body.

This golden energy condensed together, forming an extremely blinding light source.

The light surpassed even the sun, making it impossible for anyone on the wall to see what was happening.

When the light source vanished again, the Black Iron Cavalry army had disappeared without a trace, as if nothing had ever happened.

At the same time, everyone's high-tech bracelet received a message.

[The secret realm of the Ancient Battlefield is confirmed to be open. We look forward to everyone's performance.]

"This... oh my god, the Ancient Battlefield has a secret realm? It seems this Blue-White Star isn't as simple as I imagined." Mu Cheng was dumbfounded as he watched.

The Demon Butcher's voice suddenly came through.

"All secret realms will open once every seven days. The Endless Fire Domain closest to the Master contains the source of fire."

"Plans can't keep up with changes. Since they have already regrouped, let them act together!" Mu Cheng finally changed his mind.

After sending out the information, he immediately headed towards the Endless Fire Domain.

"Brother Cheng is acting alone. Let's go explore the secret realm ourselves!" Gu Na said after reading the message.

"There are so many secret realms, how about we split up?" Chu Yaoyao said after studying the topographical map.

Tao Mumu agreed. "My dear sister... the Lake of Water and Wood is very suitable for us."

Gu Na finally understood. "No wonder... so that's how it is. These secret realms can all help us break through to the Ninth Order; rather, they should be meant to help more people break through."

Hearing her say that, Chu Yaoyao was instantly shocked. "It really is so. Then let's split up!"

"Mm-hmm, I'm going to the Goddess of Life secret realm. Mumu, you must look after Shuishui well." Gu Na didn't forget to remind her before leaving.

Tao Mumu: "Don't worry, Sister Na. If you don't trust her, you should at least trust me! With me around, there definitely won't be any accidents."
