Chapter 814 Inside The Secret Realm
The stone tablet flickered, and a light was projected, absorbing d.i.c.kens into it the next moment.
Behind d.i.c.kens was an orderly team.
These teams wore black armor and held shields and swords. They came to the stone tablet with stoic expressions.
“These people are the Lord’s personal guards. They are loyal to the Lord and are pretty strong.”
Lu Yu took a quick glance, counting about 30 people.
“They are always the first to enter,” Zena explained. “As the protectors of Black Rock City, they practice always being the first to head into danger.”
“Maybe I’m being petty, but I think they just want to get in first and hog all the best stuff.”
Zena shrugged and looked at Helen. “Miss, let’s go in.”
Helen raised her right hand, and a ball of fire lit up.
“After sleeping for so long, I wonder if my strength has dwindled.”
The others entered the secret realm one after another. Soon, Lu Yu followed Helen’s team to the stone tablet.
After placing his hands on the stone tablet, it began to emit a bright light.
It flashed, and Lu Yu and the others disappeared.
The brightness faded, and the surrounding buildings disappeared. They were transported out into a desolate wilderness.
There was no end to the wilderness; they could only vaguely see a few forests and some slopes in the distance.
The air was filled with a lonely aura.
“We’ve already entered the secret realm. We’re all randomly distributed throughout the place.”
“There will be many treasures here,” Zena continued. “This means we will have to search for them slowly, especially when there are ruins with great stuff inside.”
As she spoke, she took out her weapon—a long whip.
Helen also took out her weapon. It was a golden staff with a bright sapphire on the top.
“Let’s go and take a look around.” Helen walked forward with her staff.
Lu Yu and Han Xuefei followed the team and explored the wilderness together.
Not far ahead, black bulls were gathering to graze.
Amidst the tall gra.s.s, a lion was preparing to hunt.
Conversely, a cheetah could be seen chasing after a zebra.
Although this place looked desolate, there were a lot of animals around.
However, these were all low-level wild beasts, and there was no gain in killing them.
At that moment, Helen pointed her staff forward.
“There is a pile of ruins there, and it should be a relic of the past. Let’s go there and take a look.”
Lu Yu looked in the direction she was pointing at. He could only vaguely see a few stone pillars in the forest.
Because it was too far away, the stone pillars looked like a few thin needles. Not anyone could spot them from such a distance.
“It’s so far away. If we walk over, we’ll probably waste a lot of time.”
“Yeah, but let’s walk over slowly. Didn’t we come here for those treasures?”
“It would be great if we could find a divine artifact.”
“Stop dreaming. How is it possible for a divine artifact to be lying around here?”
They continued to walk forward, and trekking in the hot wilderness was difficult.
After a while, Helen and Zena started to pant, feeling tired.
“It’ll take about half an hour to walk there. Unfortunately, we don’t have any means of transportation.” Zena stated helplessly.
Han Xuefei asked Lu Yu, “Why don’t I use my telekinesis to fly everyone over?”
“Such a long distance will consume a lot of your mental energy.”
“I have the jade badge, so I can recover my mana quickly.”
At this moment, Helen came over and said, “I’m also an esper. However, beasts are guarding the ruins, and it will be risky if we use up all our mana just traveling over.”
If they walked slowly, they would consume little energy. This small use of stamina would recover quickly.
However, mana was different.
Therefore, they refrained from using their mana, even if it could quickly bring them closer to the ruins.
“In that case, I understand. How about this? I’ll open a teleportation portal, and we’ll go through it together.”
Helen and Zena were puzzled by that suggestion.
“You can open a portal? How? The teleportation scroll cannot directly transport you to a location if you have never visited it.”
Zena asked curiously.
“I didn’t know you had this ability.” Han Xuefei couldn’t help but ask too.
Lu Yu took out his Star Piercing Demonic Sword.
His Star Piercing Demonic Sword had three skills, and one of them was to open a tunnel in s.p.a.ce.
He swung out a sword aura, which rushed forward for more than a thousand meters, leaving two cracks—one at the start and one at the end. After entering the crack, he could tunnel through and reach the other end.
As soon as he took out the Star-Piercing Demonic Sword, the dazzling sword stunned everyone.
“This… This glint, this material, this aura—this is a divine artifact!” Zena exclaimed.
Helen looked at Lu Yu in surprise.
“I didn’t expect you to have a divine artifact as an explorer. No wonder you found Black Rock City, being a professional explorer.”
Lu Yu smiled faintly and injected energy into the sword, swinging it out quickly.
Swoosh!
A streak of sword aura swept out and shot forward.
Whoosh!
A crack appeared before Lu Yu, and the sword energy rushed out 5,000 meters in the blink of an eye.
The minimum distance of the Star Piercing Demonic Sword’s aura was 1,000 meters, meaning it could teleport them a minimum length of 1,000 meters.
As the user’s strength increased, the distance it could teleport them would also increase.
However, this tunnel would only exist for a short time.
Moreover, Lu Yu was not the only one who could enter the tunnel.
The tunnel opened, and Lu Yu plunged into it, disappearing instantly.
A light shadow flashed through the tunnel.
Lu Yu arrived at the other end in the blink of an eye.
Han Xuefei was amazed by this. She only knew that Lu Yu had gotten his divine artifact, but she did not know it had such an ability.
Zena and Helen were also shocked, exclaiming at the sight. Such a function from this divine artifact was just plain mighty.
Han Xuefei also entered the crack. Her vision turned black, and she quickly zoomed through. A second later, she also appeared on the other side of the crack.
Zena, Helen, and the others were all surprised once more.
“So this is a divine artifact? What an equipment.” Helen sighed in admiration.
“This must be one of the many abilities of that divine artifact. I don’t think we have to doubt the power of a divine artifact.”
Zena quipped in and walked into the crack.
After that, Helen and the others entered one after another.
After the tunnel closed, they saw they were not far from the ruins.
They trekked into the forest immediately.
After advancing a distance in the forest, they finally saw the pillar of the ruins.
“We’re almost there, so be careful. There must be ferocious beasts guarding the ruins here!” Zena reminded everyone.
She had a wealth of experience entering these ruins with the Hook family, allowing her to be vigilant of their surroundings.
