The Eldest Prince did not dare to lie. He immediately said with a bitter face, "I heard from Eunuch Wu that there is a land of opportunity in the middle of the third floor. This land of opportunity is different from the others. On the surface, it looks like a cave, but once you enter it, you will find a small palace. There used to be a Runic Magic Circle that allowed one to comprehend Level Five Frost Talisman Papers. However, there was no more Runic Magic Circle in there.
"Oh, if there's such a place, I'll have to go take a look." Linlong nodded.
"However, Eunuch Wu said that this place is very difficult to find. If we don't know the exact location, we might not be able to find it even after a few days … Of course, Eunuch Wu only mentioned it to me. He didn't mean for me to find this place," the First Prince said.
"No matter what, let's go and search first," Linlong said.
"Young Master, I'll go with you," Qian Jiayi said.
"Young Master, I'll go with you too. After all, I can already completely activate level-four Ice Talismans," Dong Luo said.
"Alright, then both of you will go with me. As for the others, continue to stay inside." Linlong nodded.
Then, he left with Qian Jiayi and Dong Luo.
Once out of the valley, the three of them went straight to the center of the fourth floor. Linlong had already been to most of the fourth floor, so he could roughly determine where the center of the fourth floor was.
After an hour, they arrived at the center of the fourth floor. It was a small hill.
"Use your divine consciousness to sense. If you feel that something is wrong, note it down and tell me when the time comes," Linlong said.
Then, the three of them split up and searched the surroundings.
The three of them searched very carefully. However, after an hour, the three of them still couldn't find anything amiss.
Naturally, they wouldn't give up just like that. Hence, they continued to search seriously.
After another hour, the three of them almost searched the entire area, but they still couldn't find anything.
Just as the three of them were feeling extremely depressed, Linlong suddenly discovered something. He could vaguely sense that something was different not far in front of him.
After walking to the tree and stopping, Linlong couldn't help but smile.
'Looks like it should be under this tree,' he thought to himself.
Sure enough, after spending some effort, he found a mechanism. After activating this mechanism, there was a crashing sound below. Suddenly, a cave entrance was opened.
Linlong looked down and saw a staircase extending downwards.
"Young Master, did you find anything?"
Hearing the commotion, Qian Jiayi and Dong Luo also rushed over and asked the moment they arrived.
"Yes, it should be down there," Linlong said as he pointed at the stairs.
Seeing that there were stairs, Dong Luo and Qian Jiayi naturally smiled.
After that, the three of them walked down the stairs. At first, it was very dark, but when they reached the end of the stairs, it suddenly brightened up. In front of them was a small palace.
"Let's go in!" With that, Linlong strode in.
Dong Luo and Qian Jiayi followed closely behind him.
After walking into the palace, they found that it was empty. There were only empty walls in the surroundings. There were no runes or words at all.
At this moment, Linlong frowned and said in a low voice, "There's someone!"
"There's someone?" Qian Jiayi and Dong Luo couldn't help but be stunned because they didn't notice anyone at all.
Right at this moment, a person suddenly walked out from behind the pillar on the far left.
"Eunuch Liu!" Qian Jiayi and Dong Luo couldn't help but widen their eyes when they saw this person.
This person who walked out was Eunuch Liu from before.
Could it be that the emperor secretly sent Eunuch Liu into the mystic realm and hid in this small palace? The same thought flashed across their minds.
"How did you find this place?" Eunuch Liu asked coldly as he looked at the three of them.
"We accidentally touched the mechanism outside when we were looking for opportunities and walked in," Linlong hurriedly said.
"This mechanism is extremely well-hidden. How did you find it?" Eunuch Liu's voice became even colder.
He indeed felt that something was wrong because the mechanism outside could not be sensed by someone without a strong Divine Force.
"Eunuch Liu, we really did bump into it by accident," Qian Jiayi also hurriedly said.
"In that case, you can leave. However, don't tell anyone else about this, and don't even think about entering this place again!" Eunuch Liu said coldly again.
Judging from his tone, if Linlong and the others disobeyed, he would definitely kill them immediately.
"In that case, Eunuch Liu, we will leave," Linlong immediately said.
Eunuch Liu was clearly more powerful than him. He did not want to fight with Eunuch Liu.
Of course, most importantly, he felt that Eunuch Liu could use the energy of the Runic Magic Array inside to directly inform the emperor and the others outside.
If that was really the case, he might not even have the chance to enter the fourth level. That was why he said such a thing.
Qian Jiayi and Dong Luo naturally followed Linlong's lead. When they heard Linlong's words, they immediately agreed. "Eunuch Liu, we will also leave immediately."
"Alright, then let's go!" Eunuch Liu said again.
Linlong and the others hurriedly retreated.
After exiting the staircase, the entrance of the cave was suddenly closed again.
As there were many weeds at the entrance, no traces could be seen once the entrance was closed.
"Young Master, what should we do with Eunuch Liu guarding inside?" Qian Jiayi could not help but ask.
"Should we force our way in? With your strength and the two of us, we should be able to defeat Eunuch Liu, right?" Dong Luo asked.
"We can't force our way in. Eunuch Liu might be able to use the energy of the Runic Magic Array inside. Even if he can't, if he has a way to directly inform the emperor outside, we won't be able to enter the fourth level," Linlong said with a frown.
"Then … doesn't that mean we won't be able to pass through him?" Qian Jiayi also frowned.
"Let me try another method," Linlong said after thinking for a while.
"What method?" Qian Jiayi asked.
"Follow me back to the valley. You will know when the time comes." As he spoke, Linlong walked in the direction of the valley.
Qian Jiayi and Dong Luo followed closely behind him.
Not long after, they re-entered the valley.
Nothing happened in the valley.
When they saw that they had returned, Miao Feng, Wang Yingxiang, and the others surrounded them.
"Young Master, did you find the place of opportunity?" They all asked.
"We found it, but before we could explore it, we discovered that there was a person inside!" Qian Jiayi said.
"It can't be. Who is hiding inside? Or did someone enter first? "Miao Feng could not help but ask.
"Someone entered first. This person is Eunuch Liu, whom we met outside!" Linlong said.
"Eunuch Liu is actually inside. Could it be that there is some secret in the place of opportunity? Or is it really the passage to the fourth floor? "The First Prince could not help but be surprised.
"I don't know. We will only know if we go in and explore," Linlong said.
"Young Master, do you mean to deal with Eunuch Liu?" Miao Feng asked.
"Although the two of you and I might be able to defeat him, it is very likely that we will alert the enemy. It will not be good if the emperor sends other experts in. If that happens, we will most likely be stopped before we can enter the fourth floor," Linlong said.
It would be fine if they could enter the fourth floor. However, if they were stopped before they could even enter the fourth floor, that was not something he wanted to see.
"Then what should we do?" Linlong's words naturally made everyone present worry.
"I plan to let the Fifth Prince try," Linlong said as he looked at the Fifth Prince and the First Prince.
"Let me try?" The Fifth Prince was stunned. He did not know what Linlong's words meant.
As for Linlong, he called him to the side, took out a Destiny Pill, and handed it to him.
"What is this?" Looking at the Destiny Pill, the Fifth Prince was puzzled, not knowing what Linlong wanted.
"This is a Destiny Pill. After taking it, you will not disobey my orders. You will do whatever I tell you to do," Linlong said.
"How can there be such a pill in this world?" The Fifth Prince did not believe it.
"Cut the crap. Take it," Linlong said with a frown.
How could the Fifth Prince dare to refuse? He had seen what the First Prince had been through earlier, and he did not want to try it.
He could only obediently take the Destiny Pill that Linlong had given him.
After taking it, he naturally listened to Linlong's words obediently.
Linlong ordered, "Fifth Prince, follow me to the place of opportunity and then enter to see Eunuch Liu. When the time comes, tell Eunuch Liu that your elder brother has been captured. That person is very powerful and needs Eunuch Liu's help!"
As he spoke, Linlong took off a jade pendant from the Fifth Prince's neck. There was a picture of a Black Phoenix on the jade pendant, and it looked very lifelike.
Linlong could not help but nod. The First Prince also had a similar piece on his neck, and it was clearly their keepsake. It could not be faked. When the time came, all he had to do was get the Fifth Prince to bring the jade pendant on the First Prince's neck to Eunuch Liu.
"Understood!" The Fifth Prince immediately responded.
Only then did Linlong bring him back to the crowd.
At this moment, Linlong walked up to the First Prince and said, "Take off the jade pendant on your neck."
How could the First Prince dare to say no? He obediently took off the jade pendant on his neck.
When he took a look, he saw that it was also a Black Phoenix. However, it was clearly a little different from the Fifth Prince's.
It seemed that these jade pendants had been dripped with their blood essence. Therefore, although the Black Phoenix looked the same, one could tell at a glance that it was different. Linlong thought to himself.
With this, he felt at ease because Eunuch Liu would be able to tell at a glance that it was the First Prince's.
After nodding, Linlong said to the crowd, "How many of you want to enter the fourth level?"
"I'll go!"
"I'll go!"
...
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone said the same thing. Even Young Master Gu and Wang Yingxiang, who were the weakest, said the same thing.
Looking at the two of them, Linlong asked, "Have the two of you already completely mastered the fourth-grade frost talisman?"
If they had not mastered it, entering the fourth level would be useless. That was why Linlong asked this question.
"Young Master, we have already completely mastered the fourth-grade frost talisman," Young Master Gu said.
"Young Master, even if we have not completely mastered the fourth-grade frost talisman, I will definitely enter the fourth level with you!" Wang Yingxiang said.
Recalling Wang Yingxiang's reason for coming to this secret realm, Linlong nodded and said, "Since that is the case, all of you will follow me to the place of opportunity!"
"Young Master, have you found a way to deal with Eunuch Liu?" Miao Feng could not help but ask.
"Follow me, you will understand when the time comes," Linlong said.
Immediately, he led the group out of the valley and headed toward the place of opportunity.
Not long after, they arrived in the vicinity of the place of opportunity.
After finding a place where Eunuch Liu would not be able to discover them, Linlong brought everyone there. This was a high point and there was some distance between the place of opportunity and the place of opportunity.
"All of you wait here in peace." After saying that, Linlong brought the Fifth Prince to the entrance of the place of opportunity.
What was he doing? Why did he bring the Fifth Prince there? Why was the Fifth Prince so obedient? Watching the two of them leave, the First Prince was naturally puzzled.
Of course, Qian Jiayi and the others were also puzzled. However, if Linlong did not say anything, why would they ask?
After bringing the Fifth Prince to the entrance, Linlong taught him how to open the mechanism.
After teaching him, he directly knocked the Fifth Prince to the ground with a few punches. After bruising the Fifth Prince's face, he asked the Fifth Prince to open the mechanism while he hid to the side.
What was he doing? Such behavior naturally made the First Prince extremely puzzled.
The most puzzling thing was that the Fifth Prince did not seem unhappy at all.
"Rumble …"
With such a sound, the entrance of the cave was opened.
After that, the Fifth Prince walked down the stairs. Soon, he entered the small palace.
"Who is it?"
Just as he entered the palace, a furious roar rang out in front of him.
The Fifth Prince raised his head and saw Eunuch Liu standing not far away from him.
Seeing that it was the Fifth Prince, Eunuch Liu's face immediately revealed a surprised expression. He quickly said, "Fifth Prince, why are you here?"
"Eunuch Liu, this prince is here because I have something to do!" After saying that, the Fifth Prince wore a solemn expression.
Seeing that the Fifth Prince's face was bruised, Eunuch Liu quickly said, "Fifth Prince, who bullied you?"
He thought that the Fifth Prince was bullied by someone and came to look for him.
"Eunuch Liu, this prince is not bullied by anyone. Big Brother was taken down by someone. That person can completely activate the Grade 4 Ice Talisman and has a few people with the same strength as him. My people are not a match for him, so I can only ask Eunuch Liu to take action!" the Fifth Prince said.
"Is there such a thing?" Eunuch Liu was slightly puzzled.
"Eunuch Liu, this is real!" As the Fifth Prince spoke, he took out the First Prince's jade pendant.
After taking a look, Eunuch Liu's expression instantly changed. He could tell that the jade pendant belonged to the First Prince.
Such a jade pendant could protect one's body. Since it had been taken out, then the First Prince had definitely encountered trouble.
However, when he thought of his duty, he couldn't help but frown, and then he said, "Fifth Prince, His Majesty has ordered that this old servant cannot leave this place no matter what!"
The Fifth Prince coldly said, "Eunuch Liu, is your life more important or big brother's? If anything happens to Big Brother, I'll definitely report it to Father after we go out! "the Fifth Prince said coldly.
"This..."
When he heard the Fifth Prince's words, cold sweat immediately appeared on Eunuch Liu's back.
"Fifth Prince, alright then. I will go with you to save the First Prince." He could only speak helplessly. At this point, he suddenly changed the topic and said, "However, First Prince, how did you know that this old servant was here?"
"I heard it from two people. I knew that you were here, so I came immediately," the Fifth Prince said.
Those two, I will definitely find you after we leave. At that time, you will be in trouble! Eunuch Liu said coldly.
Right now, if he didn't leave, he wouldn't be able to bear the responsibility if something happened to the First Prince. If something happened to the First Prince, he wouldn't have a good life either. So, he naturally hated the two people that the Fifth Prince spoke of to the bone.
Soon after, he followed behind the Fifth Prince and walked out.
