Fang You’s spirit perked up at this. The secret realms within the borders of Dong Huang Country were maintained by the Investigation Bureau, and the output of these realms was mostly handed over to the Research Institute for developnt and manufacture. A small portion of the strange objects would serve as the foundation for the Investigation Bureau and the Special Combat Teams.
And many of them had been—ahem—”fairly traded” away by him.
The other three secret realms were likely in the hands of the mysterious departnts of the White-headed Eagle Federation, White Bear Country, and Sunset Country. There were no Mysterious Evil beings in these realms.
They all belonged to soone.
One could only covet, not taste; at most, he could… maybe scrape a bit more from these three countries during future trades.
“But the secret realm in Kangaroo Kingdom is located in a scarcely populated arid region. Not to say they haven’t discovered it, even if they did, they wouldn’t be able to develop it,” he said.
“After all…”
Just around the secret realm alone, there were missions like “Four-star Group” and several “Three-star Group” ones.
In the northwestern region of Kangaroo Kingdom where the secret realm was located, there were countless red marked missions—a place simply not fit for human habitation!
“Since this is an unclaid secret realm, of course, we must utilize it, and quickly at that,” he said.
“If used properly, a secret realm is a treasure trove that continuously produces resources and is also a gateway to the Ghastly Realm; if misused, however, it becos a never-closing door to the Ghastly Realm, extrely dangerous,” he explained.
“Even for the sake of Blue Star, this secret realm must be taken,” Fang You mused, propping his chin in his hand, feeling a bit conflicted, but it was indeed the truth.
He prepared to issue missions for Palm Thunder to lead a team there but then thought better of it, “That’s too slow. It’s a huge hassle to reach Kangaroo Kingdom by plane, and it would take them a long ti to cross those hundreds or thousands of kiloters of uninhabited areas.”
“The longer the delay, the greater the risk. The denser the area is with Mysterious Evil, the more likely a powerful one will enter Blue Star. Now there’s already at least one Four Star Mysterious Evil. If a Five Star Hell-grade Mysterious Evil arrives…”
This secret realm would be beyond their ans to explore!
Realizing this, he spoke up, “Illusory, let’s set out. Find the nearest possible warp point to the secret realm right away.”
Illusory transford at once, taking on the appearance of a female general with long hair tied up, clad in silver-scaled battle armor. She said, “It’s a bit difficult. There aren’t any transportable signals in the entire northwest region.”
She waved her hand, and a light projection displayed a map.
It was marked with various points of light, mainly in the southeast—areas with mobile signals. She could travel through these signals instantly, leaping to their location in a mont.
Literally coming through mobile signals.
But in areas with no mobile signal, she struggled a bit, and the closest signal to the secret realm was still over a thousand kiloters away.
“We’ll enter from here. Keep looking for sothing like electric lines that we can travel through, and let know when you can’t go any further,” he instructed.
“As you command~!”
She turned into a streak of golden light and entered the cell phone screen.
The whole screen took on the appearance of a space-ti tunnel, and Illusory traveled within it. Thoughtful markers appeared such as “Arriving at Kangaroo Kingdom,” obviously her own creation.
She continuously traveled and leaped. Using signals as bridges was the fastest way to travel; other ans were much more troubleso.
Fang You waited for a while, and about ten minutes later, Illusory told him she could go no further, unable to find any bridges for leaping.
Then it was ti to descend.
In Kangaroo Kingdom, northwestern arid lands, within a small town with visible traces of Mysterious Evil scattered everywhere.
A multitude of golden particles converged atop a telephone pole, forming into a tall, young man, “Are we still a few hundred kiloters away from the secret realm?” he asked.
Looking around, so Mysterious Evil charged at him.
Fang You’s fingers twitched slightly, and streams of tiny lightning arcs precisely hit more than twenty one-star and two-star Mysterious Evil beings, killing them all in one hit while keeping the energy expenditure to a minimum, not wasting even a smidgen more than necessary.
But there were still too many Mysterious Evil.
He could easily wipe out all Mysterious Evil in the town, as well as the second and third swarms, but for the vast arid land, this was insignificant.
With limited life energy, Fang You did not make another move, nor did he take to the skies—although Illusory Void Step was flashy, it also drained energy quickly.
Instead, he used “Shadow Step,” a green-level skill. It was a lower-end version but consud less energy.
His entire form turned into a phantom, breezing through the Mysterious Evil as if just a gust of wind, sotis coming to within less than a centiter of them, sotis drifting through several attacks.
It looked very perilous, yet all was under control.
Once the proficiency of a basic skill reached expert level, one’s control over their own body greatly improved. This reflected in the ability to deliver a punch with precise force and more effortlessly dodge enemy attacks.
Fang You nad it “Body First Tier Control.”
When a basic skill reached the master level, it beca Second Tier Control, capable of dodging enemy killing moves with minimal movent, with keen observation of the surroundings.
He called the increased proficiency of skills like Palm Thunder “Energy Control.”
At this mont, his basic Swordsmanship had already reached Peak Mastery, and so had Palm Thunder.
A giant flesh beast shot its tongue like an arrow toward him.
Fang You neither dodged nor flinched, simply tilting his head slightly only when the red tongue nearly pierced his face, letting the razor-sharp tip brush past his hair without severing a single strand.
In the blink of an eye, he had vanished from the flesh beast’s view, swift as the wind.
Sprint.
Then sprint again.
Several hundred kiloters was a vast distance, especially since this area was a high-risk area infested with Mysterious Evil!
As he ran at high speed, radiating faint golden light, he resembled a giant light bulb, attracting the attention of Mysterious Evil wherever he went.
Countless Mysterious Evil ca to kill him.
It was truly a life-or-death sprint. Even Illusory was alard.
“Master, slow down!” she cried.
“Dodge quickly, dodge quickly!”
“Watch out, there are two three-star Mysterious Evil on your left! Ah… and one lying in ambush up ahead!”
But Fang You felt quite at ease.
Triple-tier body control, triple-tier energy manipulation, and strong spiritual power backing—it felt as if he reflected his surroundings within his heart with a re thought. The movents of the Mysterious Evil, the trajectory of its attacks, the environnt around him—he saw it all at a glance.
“Big Brother Black Blade used to wield such thrilling micromanagent when he fought the Skeleton Knights, but when it’s my turn, I realize there’s nothing thrilling about micromanagent; everything is under control.”
“Even if the number of Mysterious Evils surrounding were to multiply, evading them would pose no difficulty.”
“I’ve beco this strong already.”
Dashing all the way, he left one Mysterious Evil after another in his wake.
When his own life energy couldn’t sustain him anymore, he found an area where Mysterious Evils were sparse, cleared the vicinity, and started to open… he canceled the entrance to the heritage village and shifted it to this place.
Then he tossed out Black Pupil to guard the door.
The main purpose was to let it level up; this thing was still stuck at the second awakening, which is a bit underwhelming.
With this operation and his personal intervention, Fang You reached the secret area by the afternoon.
Brilliant lightning, ripping through the heavens, kept bombarding the giant creature with three heads in front of him.
After a continued bombardnt of twenty or thirty seconds, the scattered lightning obliterated the Mysterious Evils nearby.
Finally,
‘Ding!’
‘Notification: You have killed a four-star Calamity-level Mysterious Evil “Tri-headed Behemoth” and obtained 333 mystical points.’
‘Notification: You have killed a three-star Mysterious Evil…’
‘Notification: You have killed a three-star Mysterious Evil…’
‘Notification: You have completed the “Four-star·Group (Large Group)” mission, obtained 660 fate points, 500 Ghastly Crystals, several Cultivation Cards, and a Random Small Treasure Chest (Green).’
Notifications continued to pop up on the panel.
From this single encounter alone, he had amassed six or seven hundred mystical points! And the whole battle took only a few minutes.
“Indeed, groups of high-level monsters are just giant experience packets.”
“If I could have a few more sessions like this, I could reach the fourth awakening on the spot.”
“Although, this great battle that lasted for three minutes has almost completely drained my life energy.”
My head even began to throb with pain.
After all, unlike the last ti, he was now fighting barehanded without any equipnt, crucially missing Angel’s Tear!
The output relied entirely on draining his own life energy.
It’s utterly exhausting.
He imdiately opened the passage to the Secret Realm, threw Black Pupil in to guard it, and then he detached from his possession to return to the base.
After drinking a few bottles of recovery potions, he began to rest.
After resting for more than ten minutes, he couldn’t help but rise up, step out of the passage’s main door, and entered this Secret Realm.
Black Pupil was just slapping a two-star Mysterious Evil that had seeped out from the Ghastly Realm to death.
“ow~?”
“Are you saying you can knock off work now? How can you call leveling up ‘knocking off work’? I’m doing this for your own good.”
“ow!”
“No need to thank . Your job site has rely shifted from stationing at the base to stationing at this branch, it’s all the sa.”
“ow!” It’s not the sa at all, ow!
Not only are there more monsters here, requiring stealthy 007 work, but also…
There’s no internet here, ow!
No internet, ow!
Black Pupil seed to have lost all willingness to live, flipping itself over to lie on the ground, its pupils devoid of light.
Still, it wasn’t a big problem.
“You can play single-player gas, anyhow, the work isn’t all 007, at most it’s 996 and there are people who can take shifts with you.”
“ow~?”
By ntally preparing for the worst and then getting a slight improvent, it suddenly didn’t feel so completely motivated.
Leaving the hardworking cat to guard the entrance, Fang You began to closely observe the Secret Realm.
This Secret Realm is slightly larger than that of Huang Country, about the size of eleven or twelve football fields. However, he learned from Yi Xuan Lu Xi that Secret Realms can slowly expand, and the resources within are continuously produced.
Similar to the Survey Bureau’s Secret Realm, here too there were various mystical plants and minerals.
And since this place had been untouched, simply after a single tour, Fang You found a total of…
“Thirty-seven Strange Implents!”
“Among them, two are purple grade Strange Implents.”
One nad ‘Thorn Seed’ is a life-like Strange Implent; as soon as it’s planted, it can rapidly grow into a formidable vine of thorns with strong binding and blood-sucking capabilities.
However, being an original natural Strange Implent, the Thorn Seed has severe side effects. At a minimum, it requires a Body Second Tier Awakener to activate, and it will continuously drain the user’s life energy and vitality, until depleted, at which point the vine reverts to a seed form.
“Using it once would cost a second-tier Awakened their life, quite a hefty price.”
“Although, it’s likely very powerful and could serve as a trump card for a mystical departnt. Once fully activated, it might even overpower Spirit Thunder.”
Yet to him, handing down this legacy held little value.
The side effects were too harsh, and he would never allow his mbers to risk their lives to use this Strange Implent.
“But if Master Wang Chui could significantly reduce the side effects of the Thorn Seed, it would make for a powerful Strange Implent.”
“Wait a minute, since the Thorn Seed is a life-like Strange Implent, and it’s a form of life without intelligence, then could there be a possibility…”
His eyes fell upon the enlightened ability of the Glorious Scepter.
