The calm days passed by just like that for a week!
As the Air Force of Mist of Time continued to grow and successfully completed a comprehensive joint training exercise among all teams, the Air Force Squadron, led by Li Tielong, was finally able to officially participate in combat.
Moreover, as initially anticipated, the advantages of the air force in battle were immeasurable!
...
On this day, the weather was fine once again!
In the dense forest, accompanied by a flash of cold light and the sound of a skull rolling on the ground, Yi Tianchen smiled slightly and let out a long sigh of relief.
For some unknown reason, or perhaps due to Uke Lord's recent hormonal imbalance... Well, for a Uke who had become nothing but bones, hormonal imbalance had become a legendary past. In several consecutive missions, Yi Tianchen was tasked with collecting skulls.
And now, Yi Tianchen had just gathered 100 skulls.
Carrying Dragon's Roar alone, with the clinking sound of chains accompanying him, Yi Tianchen dragged a string of skulls through the mountains and fields while humming an aimless little tune. Upon returning to Thousand Wood Forest, he directly tossed them in front of Uke.
Thinking back, how long had it been since he enjoyed such a leisurely gaming life?
In the previous days, Yi Tianchen and Liu Yuhan had devoted themselves entirely to the construction of their Guild. It wasn't until the conclusion of their battle with the king that Mist of Time firmly established its foundation in Southern Wilderness City. They had risen to become one of the powerful Guilds across the server and formed a new pattern of power alongside Divine Silence, War God Hall, Righteousness Above All, and Supreme Alliance.
Now everyone could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
As everyone pondered whether Mist of Time would embark on the path to contend for Dominion and how they would approach it, Liu Yuhan and Yi Tianchen provided a direct answer to everyone—
Mist of Time would not declare war on any Guild as long as it ensured its own interests!
However, this stance sparked various discussions. Some supported it while others sensationalized it. Regardless of which side one took, there was only one answer behind all this.
And this answer needs to be given through actual actions by the Mist of Time!
“Haha…”
A loud laugh escaped from the Uke Lord, carrying a hint of eerie amusement. “My young warrior, you truly haven’t disappointed me. You’ve collected as many as 300 skulls so quickly. I will report this to Shiriel, the Alliance Leader, and commend you!”
“…”
Yi Tianchen smiled, extending his hand. “No need for that; it’s better to receive some tangible rewards!”
“…”
Amidst Uke's speechlessness, Yi Tianchen received a small portion of the Mission Reward that was rightfully his for the third time. However, in the moment he turned around, he was completely petrified on the spot… standing not far ahead was Shiriel, the Blood Phantom Alliance Leader.
Yi Tianchen suddenly turned back. “Leader, did you just say you would commend me?”
“…”
Uke Lord was taken aback, throwing a disdainful glance from his hollow eye sockets before stepping forward to pay his respects. “Leader, the 300 skulls you needed have been gathered. Please take a look!”
“No need.”
Shiriel’s gentle gaze fell upon Yi Tianchen as she smiled. “As a disciple of the Hell Swordsman, I trust you!”
“Uh!”
Yi Tianchen awkwardly chuckled. “Leader, what brings you here?”
Knowing that he had lost some benefits due to his earlier slip-up, Yi Tianchen still asked with deeper intent.
"Not long ago, I met your master, Azure Abyss," Shiriel said. "From him, I learned that during the war against humanity a thousand years ago, our ancestors set up a Blood Magic Array to protect the life force of the Dark Clan."
"Wait, the Undead still have a life force?"
Yi Tianchen sighed inwardly but didn't voice his thoughts. He simply nodded and asked, "Are these skeletons related to the Blood Magic Array?"
"Exactly!"
Shiriel confirmed Yi Tianchen's guess. "Now, I have gathered all the materials needed to activate the Blood Magic Array. Once it is opened, it will elevate the entire Undead Clan's power to a whole new level. At that time, we will be ready to fight against the Otherworldly Race and reclaim this continent."
"Oh!"
Upon hearing this, Yi Tianchen understood that there was likely no benefit for him in this matter. Suddenly shifting his tone, he asked, "Leader, do you know how to make a Soul Mage unable to perceive the existence of souls?"
"Soul Mage?"
Shiriel frowned slightly and pondered. "Soul Mage Aiden? It is said that he can sense any soul's presence no matter where it is. Unless a soul is completely destroyed, there is no escaping his powerful mental perception in this world."
Yi Tianchen was taken aback. Was there really no other way?
"Unless..."
"Unless what?"
In that moment, Yi Tianchen could almost feel his heart racing to a new level as he saw Shiriel shake her head again. "A long time ago, I think I heard someone mention it, but I didn't pay attention back then and can't recall it now."
"…"
Yi Tianchen was speechless. He added, "If you remember one day, could you let me know?"
"Is it really important?"
"Very important!" Yi Tianchen replied seriously, a hint of inscrutable mystery in his gaze.
"Alright then!"
Seeing Shiriel agree, Yi Tianchen felt a little more at ease and brought up another topic. "So, Leader, do you know where the entrance to the Flower Secret Realm, one of the Three Great Forbidden Lands, is located?"
"The Three Great Forbidden Lands are not places that ordinary people can reach..."
Shiriel seemed to have some knowledge about this and continued, "Among the Three Great Forbidden Lands, the Land of Souls is the birthplace of the Hell Swordsman and the place they dedicate their lives to protect. It is said that in the Land of Souls, aside from the Hell Swordsman and those with powerful spiritual strength like Soul Mages, any soul that enters will completely vanish without a trace."
"And the Boundless Land is a two-dimensional space..."
Shiriel's voice suddenly paused as if recalling something. "But I have heard from my seniors that the Boundless Land is actually the source of the entire world. The vast world around us all began from the Boundless Land."
"As for the Flower Secret Realm..."
Her voice trailed off again. After pondering for a moment, Shiriel said, "It is said to be a mysterious realm that transcends the surrounding world, protected by powerful natural forces. Without immense strength, one cannot enter at all. As for its entrance, I fear no one in this world knows anymore!"
