Chapter 1664 - 1474: Unknown Area

Luo Ningning fell silent.

She was quite upset.

Xuan Shiyang, on the other hand, was very pleased, feeling extremely elated, and couldn’t help but lift her head.

"Is that map very important?" Ye Tian poured another glass of wine and asked.

"It’s said to be quite important because the Secret Realm is divided into many areas; some are particularly dangerous, others are safe. Without the map, it’s easy to step into dangerous zones." Xuan Chuqing whispered, her beautiful eyes slightly dim. Her Seventh Aunt’s actions indeed left her a bit heartbroken and frustrated.

"Can’t the map be shared?" Ye Tian asked. If it’s possible, for example, if Xu Xu also got it, since Xuan Chuqing and Xu Xu have a good relationship, borrowing it to take a look wouldn’t be a problem.

"No, the map on the light token directly merges into the Sea of Consciousness, it’s like a piece of information memory. Once you get the light token and merge the information, the light token dissipates, and others can’t use it."

"I see, it’s okay. Even without the map, I believe we can achieve good results." Ye Tian said with a smile.

"I hope so." Xuan Chuqing clenched her hands. Right now, her only hope is for her and Ye Tian to survive and walk out of the Secret Realm, with no other thoughts.

"Alright, the entrance to the Secret Realm is open, everyone, please!" Before long, the Buried Immortal City Lord spoke.

At the same time, outside the guest hall, a mysterious Array Formation Gate had appeared.

It turns out, the entrance to the Buried Immortal Secret Realm was within the City Lord’s Mansion, right outside the guest hall on the Martial Arts Arena.

Everyone’s eyes brightened.

They couldn’t wait any longer.

They stepped out of the guest hall.

"Hmph, pray that you don’t run into me in the Secret Realm." Ning Qingqing glared at Ye Tian, repeating her harsh words, and then was the first to step into the Secret Realm Array Formation Gate.

"Let’s go in too." Ye Tian said with a smile.

Without hesitation, the two of them entered the Secret Realm.

Passing through the Array Formation Gate felt like the world was spinning around.

Fortunately, it didn’t last long.

After a few breaths.

Ye Tian and Xuan Chuqing landed.

Upon landing, the first thing they felt was the vast temperature difference, it was cold here, biting cold, and though the Immortal Spirit Qi in the air was extremely abundant, just a single breath filled them with an overwhelming sense of decaying Death Qi.

If they couldn’t resist or transform this Death Qi, even the air alone was enough to claim their lives. Fortunately, whether it was Ye Tian or Xuan Chuqing and other contestants, they were the top tier of the elite naturally equipped with various methods to withstand this Death Qi.

"So desolate." Xuan Chuqing spoke, her beautiful eyes gazing into the distance. It was vast and boundless, not a desert but permafrost, as far as the eye could see, without a trace of green vegetation or any sign of life, giving off an indescribable sense of oppression.

"Without a map, which direction should we go now?" Xuan Chuqing asked softly. This was a big problem because once the direction was wrong, who knew where they would end up?

"Let’s just go forward." Ye Tian said with a nonchalant smile.

Since they’re here, they might as well make themselves at home.

He had just used his powerful Divine Soul to probe around and underground, but unfortunately, he didn’t find much.

Now, they could only take one step at a time.

"Okay." Xuan Chuqing nodded.

The two of them proceeded ahead.

Little did they know.

The direction they were heading...

Outside.

At the City Lord’s Mansion, the live broadcast screen was already streaming, and it was exceptionally clear. Everyone’s location in the Buried Immortal Secret Realm was visible.

The locations were different.

At this moment, the audience, including the white-bearded old leader of the Xu family Xu Fangzhong, the middle-aged woman leader of the Fu Family Fu Qingrong, and others like Xuan Jingping, almost everyone, including the Buried Immortal City Lord, had a peculiar expression on their faces.

They all looked at Ye Tian and Xuan Chuqing on the live broadcast screen.

Because.

Ye Tian and Xuan Chuqing’s location in the Buried Immortal Secret Realm wasn’t favorable at all.

The Buried Immortal Secret Realm is vast, with dangerous zones and safe zones.

The safe zones are relatively large.

In the so-called safe zones, there are Resentful Beasts, but not many, and they’re not too strong. Though this might not be ideal for contestants aiming to gain points, at least it ensures safety first. It’s generally agreed that landing in a safe zone upon entering the Buried Immortal Secret Realm is best.

In the dangerous zones, there are many Resentful Beasts, and they’re strong. Landing in a dangerous zone right away means a high risk of death.

Ye Tian and Xuan Chuqing were extremely unlucky; not only did they fail to land in a safe zone, they weren’t even in a dangerous zone, but in an extremely rare unknown area within the Buried Immortal Secret Realm.

Dangerous zones, though perilous, have been explored over billions of years, and there’s some knowledge of where the dangers lie.

But unknown areas are a complete mystery, no one knows what they will encounter.

If unlucky, the unknown areas could be even more terrifying than dangerous zones.

To make matters worse, Ye Tian and Xuan Chuqing didn’t have a map at all.

This was simply too unlucky.

Starting in an unknown zone without a map, they could completely lose their way in the unknown area, never to find their way out. The death rate was extremely high.

Furthermore, everyone outside could see that in fact, if Ye Tian and Xuan Chuqing turned around and walked in the opposite direction from where they were heading, after about a few hundred kilometers, they would reach a safe zone. But instead, Ye Tian and Xuan Chuqing, with no map at all, blindly walked and unwittingly chose a path leading to doom. The direction they were heading was towards the deepest part of this unknown zone, and at this rate, they could walk thousands of kilometers and still not get out of the unknown area.
