Without hesitation, the three of them stepped into the Secret Realm.
Yao Wanning followed suit and walked in as well.
They didn’t walk far before they found themselves in a large empty chamber.
This was the first checkpoint of the Secret Realm.
The three, including Shen Han, began searching to see where the chanism to unlock it was located.
As for the Fairy Yao from Snow Mountain House, she had even brought a chair with her.
Sitting on a recliner, she opened the food boxes she brought and began to savor the als.
"I’ll only wait for you for two hours. If you still can’t find a way to pass the level after two hours, just give up."
While eating snacks, Yao Wanning spoke.
She seed at ease, leaving all other issues to the others.
Hearing her words, Fu Tianqi’s expression darkened again.
Instead, Shen Han seed sowhat immune to it.
With focused eyes, Shen Han began searching for the chanism’s location.
The entire chamber was empty, without even a candlestick on display.
The surrounding walls seed flat, without any apparent mysteries.
"No need to look at the east side. Before you, those people had been searching the east side for a long ti.
It’s just a wall."
Yao Wanning, on the side, made sarcastic remarks.
She spoke casually, watching Shen Han and the others search for chanisms as if it were just entertainnt to her.
Every ti the three felt they might find sothing, as soon as they approached, Yao Wanning would speak up.
She always said those spots had been searched countless tis before.
After about half an hour, even the most patient person would get irritated by Yao Wanning.
By then, Shen Han had already noticed several places that seed off.
He verified three places in a row, but none housed the chanism.
At the fourth spot, Shen Han walked again to the east wall.
A small purple word appeared on the wall: [Sturdy Stone]
Before Shen Han could act, Yao Wanning spoke up again.
"Didn’t I tell you?
The entrance can’t possibly be there. Ignoring advice like this is just a waste of ti?
Perhaps you should leave sooner rather than later."
For Shen Han not heeding her advice, Fairy Wanning was quite displeased.
But in the next mont, Shen Han focused his mind and removed the [Sturdy] label.
He threw on a damaged label.
Then, Shen Han easily removed the stone.
Seeing this, Su Jinyu and Fu Tianqi rushed over.
Yao Wanning from Snow Mountain House was montarily stunned.
She seed to feel a bit embarrassed, her face showing so awkwardness.
Once the stone was removed, nothing happened; the passage remained hidden.
Yao Wanning’s awkwardness slightly subsided, and she was about to speak, perhaps intending to question Shen Han about potentially breaking sothing.
Before she could speak, an entrance appeared on the northwest side.
The first checkpoint, cleared.
Seeing this, Su Jinyu and Fu Tianqi both had a look of joy.
Su Jinyu, with a hint of pride, whispered to Fu Tianqi, "I told you Shen Han is amazing at exploring the Secret Realm~
Throughout the Divine Land, there might not be anyone better than him.
It’s no wonder our master was attracted to him; once you put aside prejudices, he’s truly capable."
Su Jinyu spoke quietly beside Fu Tianqi, perhaps thinking it wasn’t good, even if she was praising Shen Han.
She didn’t let Shen Han hear it.
Yao Wanning lowered her brow slightly, sowhat relieved that she hadn’t spoken...
Before Shen Han arrived, two sect disciples had already co.
In terms of sect strength, these two sects were no weaker than the Celestial Sword Sect.
The disciples who ca were also among the best in their sects.
Yao Wanning had a preconceived notion, thinking these young disciples all followed the sa routine.
She thought there’s simply no way to solve it...
The previous disdain in Yao Wanning’s eyes towards Shen Han changed a bit.
This ti, she appeared more serious, seemingly with a bit more trust in Shen Han.
The four entered the entrance, and as Yao Wanning walked inside, she used the Sound Transmission Jade to report on the situation inside.
After crossing the entrance, they saw a passage ahead.
As they continued along the passage, they soon encountered a fork in the road.
In front of them, both the left and right sides offered paths forward.
Looking forward along the path, it seed they would have to continue choosing the direction of their path.
Seeing this, Shen Han faintly guessed that they were likely in a maze.
Seeing Shen Han stopping, both Su Jinyu and Fu Tianqi instinctively halted.
Even the willful Yao Wanning refrained from rushing forward recklessly.
After all, being willful wasn’t the sa as being foolish.
In an unfamiliar place, rushing forward might lead to dangerous chanisms and traps.
"This seems to be a maze...
If we wander mindlessly, we might quickly lose our way.
At that point, navigating this passage could consu a lot of energy.
Moreover, there might be traps and chanisms hidden within."
Shen Han’s eyes showed seriousness.
His mystical ability to extract terms required an overview.
Being inside, he couldn’t observe the maze’s entirety.
At most, he could only observe the terms on the wall structures.
In a crisis, he could break through the walls to escape.
However, Shen Han speculated that forcefully breaking the walls with brute strength to solve this maze might be quite troubleso.
It might even cause the Secret Realm to self-destruct.
"Brother Shen, do you have any idea?"
Fu Tianqi looked at Shen Han, having pinned all his hopes on him by then.
Previously, when Su Jinyu praised Shen Han in front of him, he felt a bit jealous.
But now, in his heart, Shen Han was akin to a guiding Immortal God.
The gaze of the three fell upon Shen Han.
Shen Han glanced left and right, his expression still serious.
"I don’t have a perfect plan, but I do have a simple thod.
If this maze is a single maze, then we just need to keep our right hand on the right wall and keep moving forward.
But if it’s a complex maze, it might be troubleso...
We may need several attempts..."
Shen Han’s face held a serious expression.
If the maze creator intentionally made it to confuse people, it could indeed be daunting.
Having managed to advance a few steps, it wasn’t reasonable to give up there.
The four proceeded forward.
Shen Han insisted on leading.
Within this Secret Realm, there were clearly many intricately arranged chanisms.
Having the other three lead would put them in a difficult spot.
With Shen Han guiding, the four began to move forward.
Following Shen Han’s "right-hand rule," Su Jinyu and Fu Tianqi moved with their right hands against the wall.
Yao Wanning watched, frowning unconsciously.
The walls were dusty, appearing rather dirty.
She couldn’t help but shift a little farther away, feeling a bit repulsed.
As they proceeded, whenever they encountered a junction, they continued hugging the walls touched by their right hand.
