Special Secret Realm
All the participants in the entire Myriad Phenomena Tower, and everyone who saw the Leaderboard, were stunned and deeply shocked.
With top rankings on five lists and a total Points soon exceeding 5000 points, such an achievement is enough to make all other participants look up in awe, unable to muster even the slightest competitive spirit.
Many participants were taken aback and had already given up on competing for first or second place in this competition.
People at Myriad Phenomena Platform can't see what's happening inside, but the contestants inside Myriad Phenomena Tower can see everything clearly.
"What's going on? Why are people from Zone 18 and Zone 17, ID number 161, teaming up?"
"That's not the point. The point is, why are they so powerful? Only three days have passed, and we haven't even found the entrance to the second floor yet. How did they get to the sixth floor?"
"They're cheating! First in the tower, first in killing Fierce Beast, first in killing bosses, first in the secret realm, first in the Overall Ranking —they've done everything, and they still managed to reach the sixth floor so quickly. Is this something a normal player could do?"
"These bastards must be flying! How could players level up so fast? Didn't you see that even the geniuses in the Zone 1 can't catch up with them?"
"What's going on in Zone 18? Isn't it supposed to be the worst Novice Zone? Are all the players there useless too?"
"If this is considered trash, then what are we?"
At this moment, on the third floor of the Myriad Phenomena Tower, Military personnel were gathered together.
"Good heavens, the Chief also wants us to take care of numbers 161 and 171. How are we supposed to take care of them? If nothing unexpected happens, we won't even see their shadows."
Because Ye Shengguo specifically instructed them to take care of Ye Changge and Xiao Fan inside the tower, they checked the two's numbers as soon as they entered the tower.
Now, seeing these two numbers ranked first and second on the Overall Ranking, they don't know what to say.
"Now we can rest assured, no one can touch them, because they simply can't catch up."
"These two are indeed worthy of the Chief's favor; they are truly extraordinary."
"Alright, enough chatting. Let's prepare to go up to the fourth floor. We have the approximate location of the fifth floor entrance given by Lord Qingfeng. The Chief has instructed us to try our best to find the fifth floor entrance this time."
"Good."
The group headed towards the entrance to the fifth floor.
In the "Heaven and Earth Myriad Phenomena and Earth".
Xiao Fan's guess was correct; the nine paths around the stone slab represented nine elements.
Each path presents different elemental challenges, some difficult, but overall none beyond his capabilities.
Xiao Fan was the highest level, and the level 10 secret realm was almost no challenge for them. Soon he reached the end of the road and had a white, prismatic stone in his hand.
The second person to arrive was Qin Muyu, who was holding a stone just like Xiao Fan's, only it was black.
Seeing that Xiao Fan was already at the finish line, holding the same stone as himself, Qin Muyu's expression hardened, and he quickly stepped forward.
"Jiu Chen, this is probably bad."
"What's wrong? Is something wrong?" Xiao Fan asked, frowning, while controlling his clone.
"I feel that we'll definitely need this stone, which we obtained from the nine paths, for the rest of this secret realm." Qin Muyu held up the stone in his hand and continued, "But there are only eight of us. If we're short even one stone, we might not be able to get through later."
Before Xiao Fan could speak after Qin Muyu finished speaking, she saw Ye Changge, who should have been on the Gold Path, walk out of the Lightning Path, holding a purple stone in his hand.
"Ye Changge? How did you end up here?"
Qin Muyu, unaware that something was amiss, ran up to "Ye Changge" and asked, puzzled.
"No! You're not Ye Changge!"
Qin Muyu suddenly took a few steps back, looking at "Ye Changge" with a look of horror, her body instantly breaking out in a cold sweat.
In other words, the concept of ghosts doesn't exist on Blue Star, otherwise she would definitely shout, "There's a ghost!"
"Ahem~" Xiao Fan coughed lightly twice and walked forward.
He had tried his best to go fast, but Qin Muyu still reached the finish line first, allowing her to see the clone he had created for Ye Changge.
"Jiu Chen?" Qin Muyu looked at Xiao Fan in confusion.
Xiao Fan took the purple stone from Ye Changge's hand and deactivated his skill.
Qin Muyu watched as "Ye Changge" vanished Lingling before her eyes.
"This is actually my skill." After thinking for a moment, Xiao Fan explained.
"Skill? You're calling this a skill?"
Qin Muyu's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
Dude, you're calling this a skill?
Skills can be like this? An extra person just appeared out of nowhere?
Even though Qin Muyu knew that the skills Xiao Fan created Thousand Changes and very different from the skills they were familiar with.
But this is so different!
Who the hell would have thought of that?
But...
Why did Xiao Fan's skill conjure up Ye Changge?
What is the relationship between these two? Does Ye Changge know that Xiao Fan can conjure up another version of himself?
"We've finally arrived! Huh? Jiu Chen, you've already arrived?"
As Qin Muyu was pondering this, Ye Changge emerged from the Gold Path, holding a golden stone in his hand.
"Holy crap, what's the difference between walking this path and walking a mountain of knives? Luckily, my stats are high."
Ye Changge strode up to the two of them and was shocked to see that Xiao Fan was holding two stones.
"Jiu Chen, you... you haven't already walked both paths, have you?"
"Um... yes. I'm a high level, so after completing one path, seeing that I still had time, I went back and completed another path."
Qin Muyu:... Don't you want to listen to what you're saying? You lie without even thinking before you speak; who would believe that? Are you trying to fool a fool?
"You're awesome!" Ye Changge gave Xiao Fan a thumbs up.
Qin Muyu:... Never mind.
Seeing that Ye Changge was unaware that Xiao Fan had an avatar, Qin Muyu did not reveal it.
The three of them waited for the others to arrive while surveying their surroundings.
There was nothing around them, and in the center of the ground where they stood were nine grooves, exactly the same shape and size as the stones in their hands.
Does this mean we should put this stone in?
Ye Changge held the stone and gestured to the groove, making it clear how famous it was.
I think so.
After waiting a while longer, Swift as Wind and the others reached the finish line one after another.
The fat man held up the brown stone in his hand, looking smug. "This isn't difficult at all, a piece of cake!"
"I thought it would be really scary, but it's not that bad after all." Han the Person laughed as he held up the red stone in his hand.
"Alright, stop pretending. I don't know who was crying and screaming for help in the team chat just now." Garfield Without Fat rolled his eyes.
"Stop talking, everyone bring your stones over."
Xiao Fan interrupted their conversation.
Looking at the nine grooves on the ground, the fat man and his companions knew what the stones in their hands were for.
"Brother Chen, can we insert any of these characters at will, or should we stick to the previous order?"
"Let's proceed in order, it's safer."
"But I don't remember the order."
Xiao Fan:...
Xiao Fan went through the order again.
The eight people together placed the stones in their hands into the groove on the ground.
In an instant, a dazzling array of colors illuminated the entire space.
