The third level of the Ice Fire Beetle Mystic Realm was ridiculously dark.
Ye Chen took out the Snow Soul Pearl. This pearl currently had no other uses, but its light was excellent. When it shone with white light, the surrounding area instantly lit up.
“Master, is this Mystic Realm really transformed from a water-type mutated beast?” The Kun Peng was the first to ask. “There are black stones everywhere. It doesn’t look like it no matter what, right?”
“Idiot, let alone you, even I think that these Ice Fire Beetles can change their attributes.” Ye Chen also felt a little speechless.
A Mystic Realm transformed from a mutated beast usually had something in common with the attributes of the mutated beast, because the energy in the meridians of the mutated beast wouldn’t completely disappear after it died. Instead, it would become a part of the Mystic Realm.
According to this pattern, there should be a water source or even a glacier in the Ice Fire Beetle Mystic Realm. However, the Mystic Realm that appeared in front of them had nothing to do with water at all. This place looked more like a cave formed by countless black stone pillars of strange shapes.
In some places, the black stone pillars were too dense and had even become like stone walls, separating the cave into countless small cubicles. At a glance, it was impossible to tell how many there were. The distant space wasn’t illuminated and they were trapped in darkness.
Other than the cold air that filled the cave, there was no other characteristic that showed people this was a water-type Mystic Realm.
“There’s neither ice nor fire in the Ice Fire Beetle Mystic Realm. Who would believe that…” Ye Chen mocked.
However, the most important thing now was to find the Immortal Phoenix.
“Since there’s no ice here, there shouldn’t be much risk. It’s just that it’s too dark here. Let’s stick together.” Ye Chen became optimistic. “The Sun God Envoy is completely golden in color. It should be quite easy to find. I’ll use the Snow Soul Pearl as the light and the Kun Peng will fly us around.”
Ye Chen didn’t realize that his plan was fine. It was the Mystic Realm that was problematic.
The Kun Peng flew very quickly. It quickly finished searching the entire third level of the Mystic Realm with Ye Chen and its companions. However, there was no sign of the Immortal Phoenix here. Instead, a system notification appeared.
[Hidden prompt message: 100 meters ahead, attack the ground to enter the fourth level of the Ice Fire Beetle Mystic Realm.]
“Could the Immortal Phoenix have gone to the fourth level?” Ye Chen started thinking as he looked at the intact ground. “The entrance to the Mystic Realm that I went to before returns to its original state. Could it have run down and been stuck inside, unable to come out?”
With that in mind, he immediately pointed at the location indicated by the system notification and said to the Kun Peng, “Idiot, stop at that spot and let Monkey attack the ground. That’s the entrance to the fourth level.”
No matter how small the possibility was, he had to try.
Monkey quickly got down on the ground and used the Human Forbidden Art to attack the ground.
“Boom!”
The black stones on the ground made a loud sound, but they only cracked a little.
Monkey was clearly dissatisfied. It attacked dozens of times in a row and the fragments of the black stones on the ground flew everywhere, but they were still not broken through.
“This array of the fourth level of the Mystic Realm is nothing. Godly Sea Steadying Needle, let’s use that combination skill to blast open this piece of land!” Monkey finally couldn’t help it and began requesting help from the others.
However, Ye Chen’s expression then changed. He reached his hand out and stopped the Godly Sea Steadying Needle that was about to go to Monkey.
“Monkey, come back. The Sun God Envoy is definitely not down there.”
Ye Chen gritted his teeth and waited for Monkey to return to the Kun Peng’s back before speaking again.
“Kun Peng, take us to the sky again.”
After flying around this time, Ye Chen’s face tuned completely sullen.
‘When Monkey attacked the ground, it used the Human Forbidden Art. Thus, when it attacked just then, it let out an attack power of above 200,000. This attack far exceeded the attack that the Immortal Phoenix could make. So, the Immortal Phoenix couldn’t possibly enter the fourth level of the Mystic
Realm. It could only go up.
However, while he was flying on the Kun Peng those two times, he had never seen any system notification that said “Exit to the second level!” There was an entrance but no exit. This Mystic Realm was too strange!
“Master, should we go up and find Big Sister?” The Kun Peng finally understood.
“That’s the only possibility. Everyone, prepare yourselves and attack the top together!” Ye Chen was also extremely anxious.
Soon, under the attacks of Ye Chen and the four mutated beasts, a large hole was blasted open on the top of the third level of the Mystic Realm. However, not long after, the black stones gradually grew back.
They were trapped on the third level. They couldn’t go down or up. If not for the cultivation art tablet hanging on Little Purple’s horn, which could ensure that the few of them could retur to the previous array, Ye Chen might have been devastated.
‘They were temporarily safe, but he had already lost track of the Immortal Phoenix completely!
Right at this moment, a long cry suddenly resounded throughout the entire Mystic Realm.
“Shriek!”
Ye Chen immediately looked up.
“It’s Big Sister’s voice!” The Kun Peng shouted. “It’s from above. Master is right. Big Sister is really up there!”
“That’s strange. We failed to break the ceiling even after half a day. How did Big Sister go up?” Monkey also shouted in surprise. “Could it be that Big Sister has advanced again?”
Ye Chen couldn’t calm down at all after hearing what it said. He quickly opened the data panel and looked at the data of the Immortal Phoenix.
[Sun God Envoy]
(Race: Divine Bird]
(Rank: Divine Beast]
(Maturity: Growth Period]
[Innate Mystic Abilities: Fire Immunity, Great Sun True Fire, Great Sun Burning Sky, the Art of Blessing]
{Attack: 40,900]
(Defense: 45,400]
(Master: Ye Chen]
“F*ck, what has it been doing here?” Ye Chen was stunned. “The data has increased so much and there’s even a new skill? Isn’t this a water-type Mystic Realm?!”
All the values of the Immortal Phoenix had increased by more than 6,000. If this was not cheating, what was it? What exactly happened in this Mystic Realm?
Soon, he understood everything.
The ceiling of the third level of the Mystic Realm that had just been restored shook. Then, a wave of hot air overwhelmed the cold air in the Mystic Realm.
“I think fire is coming!” Little Purple exclaimed. Then, it quickly used the Ice Fire Armor it had just learned. “Master, what’s going on?”
‘As soon as it finished talking, the ceiling not far away collapsed. Golden red lava and a golden figure came down at the same time!
That was the Immortal Phoenix.
“I thought it was a water-type Mystic Realm…” Ye Chen was completely shocked. “Why is it in the volcano?!”
