Normally, the larger the secret realm, the higher the energy level it represented and the more stable it was. Some large secret realms could even accommodate Burning Sun Level; however, some secret realms could only accommodate Bronze Level at most.
The Molten Lava Cave of Flame Mountain was such a Bronze Level secret realm.
This meant there wouldnât be any Silver Stage entities in the Molten Lava Cave. Its level of danger might not even compare to the central area of Flame Mountain.
With his high-level skills, Su Yuan was confident that he wasnât afraid of anyone within the Bronze Level. Even if he couldnât win, preserving his life wouldnât be an issue.
Moreover, in these secret realms that opened once every twenty or thirty years, numerous high-quality materials and star beasts usually emerged.
Now that he had just advanced to the Bronze Level, his strength was increasing rapidly. Only one of his five new skill slots was slotted with Holy Light Baptism, leaving a full four slots empty.
He might not fill them immediately, but finding a satisfactory star card in such a secret realm wasnât too much to ask for, was it?
"Great!" Seeing Su Yuan agree, Zhuang Xun laughed heartily, extremely excited. "I knew youâd go! Fang Kun and I arrived at Yunyang City yesterday. If we hadnât waited for you, we wouldâve set off already. Thankfully, you didnât let us down!"
Yunyang City was a Second Stage City located at the southernmost part of Shuzhou, and it was the nearest city to Flame Mountain.
Su Yuan checked the time. It was already six in the evening, so he said, "In that case, Iâll catch the nearest flight to meet up with you guys. Weâll rest for the night and head out early tomorrow morning."
"Alright! Weâll wait for you here. If you need anything, let us know, weâll get it ready for you.
Also, these past two days, many people have entered Flame Mountain one after another. Shuzhou and Qing Province students are one thing, but Iâve even heard that geniuses from South Pole Academy have come over specifically. We need to speed things up!"
"Just prepare an additional weekâs worth of water and compressed food for me. Donât worry, a secret realm canât be fully explored in just a couple of days, and if oneâs strength isnât enough, no amount of time would be enough."
"Okay, weâll talk more when you get here. Weâll wait for you at the airport."
"No problem."
Su Yuan hung up the phone, booked a flight to Yunyang City immediately, and then left the hotel to head to the airport.
...
In the evening, at Yunyang Airport.
"Su Yuan, over here!" In the airport hall, Zhuang Xun called out from afar, with Fang Kun standing next to him, arms crossed.
Su Yuan raised his hand in response and quickly walked over.
"Youâre finally here!" Zhuang Xun laughed heartily.
Su Yuan smiled and said, "Sorry to keep you waiting."
Fang Kun, standing nearby, said, "No worries, we just got here not long ago."
Fang Kun scrutinized Su Yuan in front of him. Apart from the faint sense of Su Yuanâs Bronze Level Star Power fluctuations, he still looked so ordinary on the surface, just like an innocent high school student.
This guy⊠hid really well.
Fang Kun thought to himself.
Zhuang Xun said to Su Yuan, "At first, he was reluctant when I said we needed to wait for a master. He said, âWhy wait!â But as soon as I told him it was you, he shut right up. Ha ha haâŠ"
"Zhuang Xun, do you have to say so many unnecessary things?" Fang Kun snorted coldly. "Last time, you dodged our close-combat practice. Now Iâve got time. How about a sparring session right here?"
Zhuang Xunâs laughter immediately halted.
Just kidding, he didnât want to brawl with this brute.
Su Yuan looked at the two of them and couldnât help but smile.
These two really got along well⊠unlike those two special recruits from Demon Capital.
One was arrogant and unruly with no respect for anyone. The other was as cold as ice and nobody knew what kind of star beast his true form was.
Zhuang Xun said, "Letâs go. Iâve already booked the hotel. We can grab some skewers and have a detailed discussion."
"Alright!"
