Chapter 568: Second Exploration of the Fire Flame Secret Realm (Second update, requesting everything)

Five days have passed since the end of the new student branch assignment.

After the new semester began, Li Changsheng officially became a second-grade student; his life remained calm yet busy, consisting of nothing but cultivation every day to improve his strength as much as possible.

Due to the short interval, his strength had not increased much, but there were some gains nonetheless.

This day was also the day Li Changsheng led the team into the Fire Flame Secret Realm.

Besides Li Changsheng, there were eight other second-grade Third-rank Students; they were all familiar faces: Zhao Shuyi, Xu Xiangzhi, Zhang Yi, Luo Jie, Yuan Yongyan, Li Runfeng, Li Jingyi, and Li Tianyu.

Over these past six months or so, their strength had all grown significantly, with Zhao Shuyi being only one step away from reaching the Fourth Rank.

It was a pity that although she had displayed excellent talent, she was ultimately just a concubine-born daughter of the Zhao Clan; even with the resource allocation given by the Zhao Clan, she was still far behind Zhao Wencan, who was inferior to her.

In addition to these nine, there were eight Second-tier Students, one of whom had made a breakthrough within these five days, which was why a spot had been reserved for them.

Under the personal leadership of Xu Wenhua, Li Changsheng and the others stood on the Dragon Horse Hall, and it took only half an hour to arrive at the location of the entrance to the Fire Flame Secret Realm.

Compared to several months ago, it was significantly quieter here; after the five major powers reached an agreement, they each left behind a Fifth-rank Stronger to guard the entrance to the Fire Flame Secret Realm.

At the same time, they had already made plans: the Imperial Family would develop the most prosperous central area, while the other four parties would each occupy one direction.

Among them, Yuanling Academy would develop the northern region, mainly planting Fire Element Spirit Herbs, and incidentally scouting whether the area contained mineral veins.

Additionally, it was stipulated that personnel from other powers entering the Fire Flame Secret Realm could not be killed.

Because the development time was too short and the entrance to the Fire Flame Secret Realm had an age restriction, this was not very friendly to the Imperial Family and the Langya Liu Clan; the number of Monster Tamers from these two major powers who met the age requirement was far lower than that of the other three major powers.

After consultation, the five major powers established a rule that the number of people entering from each major power must be limited to within 50.

After several days of coordination, Yuanling Academy withdrew a batch of development personnel for this purpose; only by doing so were Li Changsheng and the others qualified to enter the Fire Flame Secret Realm.

On the way there, Li Changsheng had already secretly implanted a Doushuai Yuan Magnetic True Seed into the other 16 people.

This was a special Advanced Secret Technique seized from the Liu Clan Brothers; as long as the Yuan Magnetic True Seed was implanted into another person's body, one could accurately grasp the other person's exact location within a range of a thousand miles.

Of course, if the target of the implantation resisted, it would definitely fail.

Li Changsheng possessed the Control Token for the Fire Flame Secret Realm and naturally had the Authority to teleport his teammates to fixed locations, but he had no intention of using it, as it would be easy for others to discover something fishy.

At this time, Li Changsheng and the others began to register.

At the same time, the four Fifth-rank Strongers from the other powers were also using different methods to check the appearances of Li Changsheng and the others to avoid them faking their identities and sneaking in people from other powers.

It was precisely because of this that Li Changsheng did not use the Hundred-Change Thousand-Illusion Mask's ability to change his appearance at all, showing himself with his true face.

However, Li Changsheng still concealed his aura of having advanced to the Fifth Rank, and it was not discovered by them.

Upon seeing that Li Changsheng was also on the list, the four Fifth-rank Strongers from the other powers revealed different expressions.

The Langya Liu Clan naturally showed hostility, while the other powers varied; some were grave, some frowned, and some were friendly.

The Third Prince Dou Yuanbin could not fully represent the Imperial Family, especially since the Imperial Family member left here to hold the fort was someone sent by the Emperor of Langya Kingdom, Dou Zhangsheng; even though he knew about the conflict between Li Changsheng and Dou Yuanbin, he did not show hostility.

However, if nothing unexpected happened, the guarding Strongers of the Imperial Family and the Langya Liu Clan would definitely spread the news of Li Changsheng entering the Fire Flame Secret Realm to their respective powers, and it was possible they would take action.

Li Changsheng had already prepared for this; taking a step back, even if Dou Yuanbin and the Langya Liu Clan stirred up trouble again, he had enough ability to escape.

The current Li Changsheng was not the same as he was several months ago; now that he had not only advanced to the Fifth Rank but had also accumulated four months of time, his strength would not be much worse than Dou Yuanbin's.

Soon, the guarding personnel of the five major powers unlocked the Restriction on the secret realm entrance.

Boom—

Accompanied by a loud, rumbling sound, the ground shook violently, and a pitch-black circular passage suddenly appeared.

"Go in!"

Following Xu Wenhua's order, the group of 17 began to enter the passage one by one.

Compared to several months ago, the Fire Flame Secret Realm was much safer, and correspondingly, the possibility of encountering opportunities was also much smaller.

Li Changsheng was the first to enter the passage; amidst a dizzying sensation, the environment before his eyes suddenly changed.

The first thing Li Changsheng did was observe his surroundings, and after confirming there was no danger, he immediately took out the Control Token for the Fire Flame Secret Realm.

This time, Li Changsheng was randomly teleported to the west; according to the plan, this was the development territory of the Royal Academy.

"They should have all entered by now!"

Li Changsheng began to rely on the special nature of the Doushuai Yuan Magnetic True Seed to sense the specific locations of Zhao Shuyi and the others.

It felt just like a Dragon Pearl radar, with the light dots representing them flickering constantly.

Before entering the secret realm, Li Changsheng had instructed them not to move and to wait until they had gathered before acting, to avoid accidents along the way.

Among these 16 light dots, the one closest to Li Changsheng was very near, about ten miles away.

Li Changsheng did not immediately head to the central area; he planned to wait until everyone had gathered before sneaking into the central area to take Liu Xudong's Space Ring.

Due to the age restriction, Li Changsheng could be said to be invincible in the Fire Flame Secret Realm.

"Aixi, let's go!"

Li Changsheng rode Aixi, and in a flash, he appeared at the location of the nearest light dot in just half a minute.

In the fiery red forest, Luo Jie was preparing to lie on the ground and wait slowly, but who would have thought that Li Changsheng would be the first to find him.

"Luo Jie, there is one of our companions about 30 miles away at the seven o'clock direction; after finding them, we will gather at the Twin Volcanoes."

The Twin Volcanoes were also located in the west, but they were relatively close to the center of the secret realm; these were two adjacent active volcanoes, and because their shapes and sizes were relatively similar, they were named the Twin Volcanoes.

"Understood!"

Luo Jie did not refuse and hurriedly rode his Flying Demon Pet to fly in the direction specified by Li Changsheng; this was also what they had agreed upon beforehand.

As long as they were not in the central area of the Fire Flame Secret Realm, Third-rank Royal Beast Masters were still quite safe.

Of course, the Second Rank were more prone to encountering danger, which was the main reason Li Changsheng did not let them act alone.

After Luo Jie left, Li Changsheng once again rode Aixi and flew toward the other side, where there was also a mark 50 miles away in that direction.
