The sudden sound was clear and steady, without any fluctuation.
It seemed as if it sounded directly in everyone's minds without being transmitted through the air.
"Is it Mental Ability User?!"
Black Wolf and Bao Ye instantly tensed up, like wild beasts with explosive hair. They were ready to go and watched their surroundings vigilantly.
Xiao Bei and the other three guys also opened their eyes wide and turned their heads around in panic, trying to find the voice Source in the foggy darkness.
Fang Cheng also had a serious look on his face, and a sharp light flashed through his pupils.
Being able to convey sound to one's own ears quietly under such circumstances is by no means an ordinary person.
And this voice seems to be somewhat familiar...
Fang Cheng Before he had time to think about it, another faint rustling sound came from around him.
The other teams hiding in the dark seemed to be startled by the sudden sound.
The quiet atmosphere that was originally lurking was instantly broken, and everyone began to whisper to each other or look around for the target.
The uneasy mood spread quickly in the forest like a thick haze.
Even the slightest shaking of a leaf or the strange bending of a branch seemed to instantly stir their tense nerves.
"Don't be nervous, I don't mean any harm."
The voice sounded again, and in this dark and quiet Mountain Forest, it seemed particularly mysterious and unpredictable.
"I just want to chat with you about the common goals in this Estate."
"I believe that you are all lurking here late at night and all want the same thing. Instead of fighting each other and being in a stalemate, why not work together?"
The speaker's tone was neither fast nor slow, and his voice was calm and soft, with an irresistible bewitching power. It seemed that he could really remove the Mist in front of everyone's eyes and find a shortcut to the goal.
"If any of you are interested, you can come to my Private Secret Realm. You may wish to sit down together and discuss cooperation."
"Perhaps we can find a proper way to solve the current situation instead of continuing to work in vain..."
Then, the voice paused for a few seconds, as if waiting for everyone to digest the words.
Then, a string of letters was announced in a slow and solemn tone.
These letters sound obscure and hard to pronounce, but the syllables contain a mysterious rhythm.
It is like an invisible key that can open a door to an unknown space.
"This is my Contact Cipher, welcome to visit."
Finally, the voice of the words drifted away in my mind, and the lingering sound was lingering, teasing people's hearts in a subtle way.
The forest in Mist was eerily quiet for a while.
Occasionally, a few Night Owl cries could be heard, which only accentuated the deathly silence around them.
Only the searchlight Estate in the distance still penetrated the fog and shot two dazzling light beams.
The treasure hunters hiding in the dark seemed to be recalling the words spoken by the voice, full of doubts and a little moved.
Who is this Mysterious Man? Is his proposal sincere, or is it a hidden Trap?
Everyone seemed to be weighing the pros and cons in their hearts and thinking about the next move.
Fang Cheng, Black Wolf and others also looked at each other, each seeing the same doubts and vigilance in each other's eyes.
"Bao Ye, did you all hear that voice just now? What is it?"
A Da couldn't help but ask questions.
A Er and A San also turned their attention, hoping to get answers from the experienced boss Underworld.
Bao Ye looked solemnly and spoke slowly:
"The opponent is a Mental Ability User. Judging from the strength of Mental Wave, his cultivation is probably more than twice as high as mine."
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but take a breath of air.
Everyone knows the specific strength of Bao Ye, and therefore understands what this gap in spiritual cultivation means.
I'm afraid if I'm not careful, I will be tricked and manipulated by the other party.
Xiao Bei scratched Bald Head and asked nervously:
"Uncle, the other party invited us to the Private Secret Realm. What on earth is this? Is there Danger?"
Black Wolf heard this and looked at the other clerks with the same curious eyes as Xiao Bei, so he explained:
"This is the most secret way for us Aberrant to communicate with each other. Through Contact Cipher, we enter the Spiritual Space built by the inviter on World of Consciousness."
"Although it is far inferior to the Inheritance Secret Realm that can affect reality like Noble Clan, those who can create Mental Secret Realm privately are all top masters in mental ability."
Black Wolf paused, frowned, and then added a reminder:
"Also, we must consider that although entering Secret Realm is only in the form of consciousness and the body is still in the outside world, there are still certain risks. We must be prepared for what methods the other party will use to confuse people's hearts."
After everyone heard this, they immediately started talking.
"I think this matter is very strange. How can it come out of nowhere and invite us to talk to the Secret Realm? If it is a trap set by the Lu Family masters in Estate, wouldn't we be the turtle in the urn if we go in?"
"How about we send someone to explore the surrounding area first, contact other teams, and find out what the origin of this Mysterious Man is?"
A Da and A Er expressed their opinions worriedly. A San couldn't understand the language and showed worry in his eyes.
Black Wolf looked around and turned his attention to Fang Cheng, who had been thinking silently:
"Brother White Ghost, what do you think?"
Fang Cheng looked up at the brightly lit Estate, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a deep voice:
"This Mysterious Man can transmit sound to each of us. If you want to use your spiritual power to deal with us, you can actually do it just now. You don't have to be so polite. Since he dares to extend an olive branch, maybe he really has some trump cards at hand."
"Of course, the risks of cooperation are also obvious."
"But I don't think this risk lies with the Mental Secret Realm. Rather, choosing to participate in this cooperation meeting is equivalent to handing over the initiative to others and recognizing the other party as the leader in a sense."
"White Ghost makes sense."
Listening to Fang Cheng's rather unique analysis, Bao Ye nodded and took the words:
"But with the current stalemate, if we don't have any good means and continue to waste our time, we will have to retreat down the mountain in despair without anyone else taking action."
Seeing that some of the big guys were a little undecided, A Da asked cautiously:
"Bao Ye, Wolf Ye, Lord Ghost, then are we going to the so-called Secret Realm?"
"Go."
Fang Cheng stared hard and replied decisively:
"If all other teams participated in this Secret Gathering, but we didn't go, just think about it, what is most likely to happen next?"
When everyone heard this, their hearts skipped a beat, and a picture instantly appeared in their minds.
The other teams unite, under the leadership of Mysterious Man, to get rid of their unsociable team first to prevent future troubles.
Only then did everyone realize that the opponent's plan was really sophisticated. Step by step, it could be said that he could completely grasp the thoughts of all the treasure hunters.
Even if you know it's a trap, you still have to be skeptical and step in to find out.
"Then let's join in and see what kind of medicine the other party is selling."
Bao Ye pondered for a moment and made a decision:
"If we can really negotiate cooperation, our chances of winning will be greatly improved. Estate is heavily guarded, and there are so many wolves, tigers and leopards outside. It will definitely not work on our own."
Black Wolf frowned:
"Are we all going?"
Bao Ye thought for a moment and replied:
"Two of you go and take care of each other. The others stay and stand by."
Among the team members, Spirit Attribute is relatively high, and those who are qualified to enter Secret Realm are Black Wolf, Bao Ye, and A San.
After everyone discussed it, it was decided that Bao Ye would take A San to the party, while Black Wolf would stay behind to look after the team in case Unexpected Events happened to the outside world.
If the mental state of the person entering Secret Realm is abnormal, you can take action in time to wake them up.
Fang Cheng suddenly said:
"It's better for me and Bao Ye to go together."
Black Wolf couldn't help but be startled, with a look of surprise on his face:
"Brother White Ghost, is your Mental Energy enough to enter Secret Realm?"
He had a preconceived notion that Fang Cheng Physical Quality was so strong that he should be a little weak mentally.
Fang Cheng replied calmly:
"No problem."
Black Wolf Seeing that he was so determined, although he still had doubts in his heart, he couldn't say anything more, so he nodded and said, "That's okay."
Bao Ye is self-defeating.
After all, with such a capable assistant, Secret Realm is more confident in dealing with unknown risks.
At this moment, everyone made some preparations and acted according to the plan.
Fang Cheng closed his eyes slightly, concentrated his mind, and recited the extremely difficult to pronounce sentence Incantation accurately and fluently.
The noise in my ears was like a tide, coming in quickly and dissipating quickly.
When he opened his eyes again, Fang Cheng's gaze passed through the extremely dense Black Mist and quickly locked onto the target hidden in Dark World.
At the edge of consciousness, a magnificent building slowly emerged.
It rises from the ground and is four stories high, with a high dome.
The whole body is carefully carved and spliced from pure white Marble.
When the consciousness touches this mysterious building, one can even vaguely hear the melodious and ethereal sound of the organ.
Fang Cheng then opened the door, walked out Memory Palace, and stepped forward.
Before he could raise his hand to knock on the door, the door opened with a creak.
A hazy halo of light emanates from it, dimly illuminating the doorway, as if welcoming travelers in the dark to visit.
Fang Cheng took a step forward and slid into the door Light Gate with ease.
White light flashed before his eyes, and the next moment the figure appeared in an extremely open room.
As soon as I set foot, I was hit by a strong sense of space.
Looking up, I saw the dome high up and out of reach, giving people a sense of depth and boundlessness.
The four walls and ceiling are dotted with bright Crystal Lamps, like the twinkling stars in the night sky, providing soft lighting for the entire room.
The most eye-catching thing is undoubtedly the rows of bookshelves that cover the entire wall.
They stand tall and are filled with all kinds of books. Some have simple and thick covers, while others are radiant and colorful, as if they contain mysterious power.
These books are densely packed and stacked layer upon layer, extending to the end of sight.
"It seems to be a Library..."
Fang Cheng looked around carefully and whispered to himself.
Music as soft as the wind lingered in my ears, followed by a small but clear voice.
Ripples appeared in the surrounding space, and other figures appeared one after another.
There is a single figure, standing alone, but there are also two and two, gathering together and whispering.
I don't know whether these people belong to the Secret Realm's Master side, or they are visitors who were also invited.
And the number is still increasing, making the originally empty room gradually become lively.
A moment later, Bao Ye, wrapped in a burst of soft light, also appeared in this mysterious Library.
He opened his eyes, as if he was shocked by such a majestic and spectacular sight, and his whole body froze on the spot.
After a while, I came back to my senses, quickly looked around, and found Fang Cheng standing aside.
Seeing that he actually entered this place earlier than him, a trace of surprise flashed in Bao Ye's eyes.
Then he walked forward and stood side by side without saying anything.
"Did you find anything?"
Bao Ye was the first to ask.
Fang Cheng shook his head and replied:
"The scale here is unexpectedly large, and it looks different from the ordinary Secret Realm. The strength of Master cannot be underestimated."
Bao Ye nodded slightly, expressing approval.
Both of them are wearing Cham Mask and black clothes at the moment, just like in reality.
This Mental Secret Realm is different from Smiling Devil's "chat room" in that it can directly project 100% of the visitor's current physical appearance.
Fortunately, the two of them had disguised themselves in advance, so they didn't have to worry about their identities being exposed.
Looking around, you can see some people wearing masks or covering their bodies in other ways.
Of course, most of them show their true colors.
Maybe it's because the skilled artist is bold and has absolute confidence in his own strength, or maybe he didn't expect Secret Realm's special Rules at all, so he was completely unprepared.
They spontaneously divided into small groups, keeping a certain distance from each other, with vigilance in their eyes, as if they were surrounded by potential enemies.
Fang Cheng After observing it calmly, he tilted his head and asked in a low voice:
"Do you know all these people?"
Bao Ye's eyes turned cold and he replied with a bit of hatred:
"We've fought with a few of them before, so we know each other."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed to the crowd, identifying familiar figures one by one.
"That skinny guy's name is Ba Ming. Although he looks inconspicuous, he is actually very bad. He is good at using poison and makes people hard to guard against. It is very difficult to fight against him."
"Those two big bear-like guys, nicknamed "Black River Twins", are a pair of twins. They are so powerful that they once smashed the skull and bones of one of my clerks with one punch!"
"There is also Nail Head, whose abilities are unknown, but you should pay special attention to it, it is very Danger..."
Fang Cheng nodded slightly and listened to Bao Ye's introduction to each potential opponent.
His eyes inadvertently fell on a figure with a black and red light all over his body.
That kind of light is like a weird Flames, jumping and tumbling around it, giving off an elusive sense of mystery.
As if aware of his gaze, the man also turned his head and looked straight over.
Fang Cheng looked calm, then looked away, and quietly communicated with Bao Ye as if nothing had happened.
There were all kinds of speculations and discussions around him, which seemed a bit noisy.
Everyone has been waiting inside Library for a long time, and the initial novelty and vigilance are slowly fading away.
Just when someone started shouting impatiently, a voice suddenly sounded:
"It's almost time, everything that should come should have come."
That voice was soft, steady, and penetrating. It was the Mysterious Man that had been transmitted to every treasure hunter before.
Everyone immediately looked around, their eyes full of eagerness and curiosity, wanting to see the true face of Master in Lushan immediately.
Then, a tall and thin figure slowly walked out from behind a bookshelf.
