Unknowingly, the sun had already risen above everyone's heads, and the scorching sunlight shone on the entire land.
Those who were extremely sensitive to light would notice that the sunlight was a bit weaker than before.
If one observed carefully enough, they would be able to see that there was a very inconspicuous black dot in the center of the sun. It was about 1% the size of the sun.
Without a doubt, this black dot was the divine territory.
At this moment, the sun, the divine territory, the Martial Sky Continent, and the Demon Realm were connected in a straight line.
The divine territory was sandwiched between the sun and the Martial Sky Continent, while the Demon Realm was behind the Martial Sky Continent.
A formless gravitational force acted on the Martial Sky Continent, and a steady stream of energy acted on the Sorcerer Goddess Pagoda, causing the runes on the walls of the Sorcerer Goddess Pagoda to shine brightly.
Then, all the runes linked together, forming a dense pattern. Then, the entire Sorcerer Goddess Pagoda lit up with a bright light.
"The pagoda is about to open."
Following the voice of the pagoda official, the door at the bottom of the Sorcerer Goddess Pagoda opened halfway, revealing a layer of white light.
This layer of light was the same as the door of the Southern Summer Secret Realm. It was specially used for teleportation. As long as one passed through this layer of light, they would be able to enter the pagoda.
"The pagoda will close in two hours. At that time, regardless of whether you have completed your training or not, you will be forcefully teleported out. Everyone, hurry up and enter," the pagoda official immediately said to everyone.
Only then did everyone fight to be the first to enter the pagoda. Although the Sorcerer Goddess Pagoda was extremely dangerous, the first level was not that dangerous, so everyone was willing to try it.
After all, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If they missed it, who knew how many years they would have to wait. Furthermore, since they were already here, it would be too shameful to give up.
"Go, and remember what I told you," Lin Yun gently said to Lin Ying as he stroked Lin Ying's head.
Lin Ying nodded obediently, then turned around and entered the pagoda, disappearing into the light.
Nangong Yan walked in front of Lin Yun and said firmly to Lin Yun, "I've thought it through. Although entering the second floor might be life-threatening, I still want to give it a try."
She knew that Lin Yun would leave Southern Summer sooner or later and leave her side. He could not protect her forever, so she had to learn how to protect herself and become stronger.
Lin Yun also knew what Nangong Yan was thinking, so he didn't oppose her decision. He just said to her seriously, "You must come back alive."
Nangong Yan stretched out her hands and hugged Lin Yun's waist tightly. She pressed her head against Lin Yun's chest. "I promise you, I will come back alive."
Yun Ruoxi was lost in thought as she watched from the side. A thought suddenly flashed through her mind. If she died on the second floor, would Lin Yun be sad?
It wasn't until Nangong Yan entered the pagoda that Yun Ruoxi came back to her senses. At this time, only she and Lin Yun were left among the young geniuses who hadn't entered the pagoda yet.
The two of them stood facing each other and looked at each other with strange gazes. A gentle breeze blew over, causing their hair to dance in the wind and their clothes to make a rustling sound.
Time seemed to have stopped at this moment.
All the surrounding sounds seemed to have disappeared.
The entire world became quiet at this moment.
"We're the only ones left. Let's go in." Lin Yun was the first to break the silence.
Yun Ruoxi nodded. Just as she was about to turn around and walk towards the pagoda, her body stopped uncontrollably. Then, she asked Lin Yun, "I want to ask you a question."
"What question?" Lin Yun replied calmly.
Yun Ruoxi took a deep breath and mustered up her courage to say, "If I die on the second floor, will you … be sad for me?"
After Yun Ruoxi finished speaking, she stared straight at Lin Yun, eager to know Lin Yun's answer.
Lin Yun walked in front of Yun Ruoxi and solemnly said to her, "Actually, you're a genius with a lot of potential. In some aspects, your potential even surpasses that of the three monstrous geniuses. Perhaps you won't be able to become a powerful battle-type warrior, but you can become a top-notch support-type warrior.
"One day, I will leave the Southern Summer. If possible, I want to take you with me. I want you to become my right-hand man and accompany me to the god-realm. So, I don't want you to die. Do you understand? "
Hearing Lin Yun's words, Yun Ruoxi's eyes flashed with infinite yearning. She couldn't help but ask excitedly, "Really? You're really willing to take me with you? "
Lin Yun solemnly said, "Of course I'm willing to take you with me, as long as you're not afraid of danger."
Yun Ruoxi naturally knew that the level of danger in the god-realm was definitely not something she could imagine. But even so, she still shook her head without fear. "I'm not afraid. As long as I can follow you, I'm not afraid of any danger."
Lin Yun nodded in satisfaction. "Then it's settled."
"Mm, this is our agreement." Yun Ruoxi was overjoyed and nodded. Then, she handed a brocade pouch to Lin Yun.
As soon as Lin Yun took the brocade pouch, Yun Ruoxi turned around and walked to the front of the light barrier. She looked back at Lin Yun and smiled. "I'll come out safely because we've already agreed to go to the god-realm together."
After saying this, she plunged into the light membrane, and her body gradually disappeared into it.
Lin Yun already understood what she meant. She was planning to take the risk to go to the second level. Because she didn't want to lose to Nangong Yan in this aspect, and she didn't want to be a burden to Lin Yun in the future. So, she wanted to make herself stronger.
Looking at the silhouette disappearing into the light barrier, Lin Yun suddenly felt a surge of worry in his heart. He didn't know why, but at this moment, he was suddenly worried about Yun Ruoxi's safety.
Lin Ying wouldn't go to the second level. She had the Berserk Ring that Lin Yun had given her, so she basically wouldn't be in danger on the first level. So, Lin Yun wasn't worried about her.
But Yun Ruoxi was different. She didn't have the Berserk Ring that Lin Yun had given her, so she could only rely on her own strength.
Yun Ruoxi's cultivation was the same as Nangong Yan's. But in terms of strength, she was far inferior to Nangong Yan. The danger in the second level was extremely high.
If Nangong Yan's survival rate in the second level was said to be 50%. Then, Yun Ruoxi's survival rate would only be 30%.
Thinking of this, Lin Yun's worry in his heart grew.
With a worried heart, Lin Yun stopped in front of the light barrier. He picked up the brocade pouch in his hand and looked at it. Then, he held it tightly in his hand and walked into the light barrier.
After a moment of dizziness, the scene in front of him suddenly changed. Lin Yun appeared in a barren land where not even a blade of grass grew.
This land was filled with rich Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, causing the entire space to be shrouded in clouds and mist. It seemed to have a celestial charm and Spiritual Qi.
Lin Yun looked around. There was nothing around him. Apart from himself, there was no one else. There was only a green teleportation array in front of Lin Yun.
This green teleportation array was a path to life for the cultivator when they wanted to give up.
