As soon as Lin Long appeared, the ferocious beast immediately roared at him and even made a move to pounce on him.
However, just as he had guessed, the ferocious beast was unable to take another step forward.
Lin Long then moved to the right, and the ferocious beast did the same. However, it was still unable to charge towards him.
Lin Long thought to himself, 'Seems like that's really the case.'
In order to confirm this, he moved to the right because he had discovered another ferocious beast there with his Divine Telekinesis.
Not long after, he stood in front of another ferocious beast. Just like before, the ferocious beast could not take another step forward no matter how hard it tried.
It seemed like there was an invisible barrier between the outer and inner layer. In other words, he would not encounter any ferocious beasts in the outer layer. Lin Long thought to himself.
Lin Long then walked to the right. After walking for a while, the ferocious beasts that he encountered could not enter the outer layer.
Moreover, along the way, he discovered a few places of opportunity.
However, the knowledge in these places of opportunity was still useless to him.
It seemed like he could only find a place of opportunity suitable for him inside. Lin Long thought to himself.
However, what he was most concerned about now was not the place of opportunity, but the altar inside.
He had to find the altar before the Emperor sent people in. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if the people sent by the Emperor stopped him before he found the altar.
After all, the Fifth Prince could not keep Eunuch Liu busy. Eunuch Liu would eventually discover that the Runic Formation of the small palace had been broken.
Therefore, he decided to ignore these places of opportunity for now. Instead, he continued to move forward and find the altar first.
However, before that, he had to return to the place of opportunity where Qian Jiayi and the rest were. He had to inform them.
When he returned, he realized that Qian Jiayi and the rest were still immersed in the knowledge of this place of opportunity.
Lin Long did not care so much at this moment. He shouted loudly to get them to come back to their senses.
"Young Master, what's wrong? Did you find the altar?" Qian Jiayi could not help but ask when she woke up and saw Lin Long.
The rest naturally looked at Lin Long as well.
"No, I just checked the surroundings and discovered some things about the fourth level …" Lin Long immediately told them what he had seen.
"So that's the case. No wonder we didn't encounter any fierce beasts." Qian Jiayi and the others couldn't help sighing after hearing Linlong's explanation.
Linlong continued, "The altar should be inside, so I will continue to head inside. As for the rest of you, you can comprehend the opportunities in the periphery."
"Young Master, won't it be dangerous for you to go in alone?" Qian Jiayi was naturally worried for Linlong after knowing that there were ferocious beasts inside.
"Again, you fellows won't be able to help me much right now. Besides, I am not worried about being besieged by the wild beasts inside. So, you fellows don't have to worry about me. Hurry up and improve your strength. Only by mastering the level 5 Ice Talismans will you be able to help me," Linlong said.
"Young Master is right, we will do our best to improve our strength!" Dong Luo took the lead and said.
Qian Jiayi and the others said the same.
"Alright, then you guys can stay on the outskirts and improve your strength." Linlong nodded, and then said, "However, all of you have to be careful. Although there are no ferocious beasts in the periphery, the Emperor might send people in at any time. So, all of you must not split up. Try to stay together as much as possible!"
After Lin Long gave his instructions, he walked out of the land of opportunity and headed forward.
Soon, he saw the ferocious beasts inside. He could handle three or four ferocious beasts, but it would be troublesome if there were more. Therefore, he tried his best to avoid the ferocious beasts he encountered.
Relying on the strength of his Divine Will, he still did not encounter any ferocious beasts after an hour.
However, the deeper he went, the more difficult it became. This was because the deeper he went, the more ferocious beasts there were.
If he was not careful, he would have bumped into some ferocious beast. If not for his powerful Divine Will, he would have been surrounded by several ferocious beasts.
Soon, he encountered a ferocious beast.
This was because he had to avoid the ferocious beasts on his right.
Upon seeing him, the ferocious beast immediately pounced on him. Linlong immediately activated the level 4 Ice Talisman in his hand.
Soon, the level 5 ferocious beast, which was clearly weaker than him, was frozen stiff on the ground.
After dealing with this ferocious beast, Linlong continued to move forward.
At this moment, Qian Jiayi and the others outside had already mastered level 5 Ice Talismans. Apart from the Absolute Silence Talisman that Linlong had taught them, it was also because the knowledge in these opportunities was relatively easy to grasp.
The two people who had mastered level 5 Ice Talismans were Qian Jiayi and Dong Luo.
However, because of Linlong's previous instructions, they did not choose to leave the group to search for new opportunities, even though they had made such a breakthrough. Instead, they continued to stay with the group.
While they were improving, Eunuch Liu could no longer hold it in. He had searched many places but could not find the First Prince.
He could not help but say to the Fifth Prince, "Fifth Prince, I'm afraid we have to give the First Prince a lot of thought. I have to go to the places of opportunities to take a look first."
The Fifth Prince frowned and said, "Eunuch Liu, how can we do that? If anything happens to the First Prince, you and I will not be able to bear the responsibility!"
In order to delay Eunuch Liu, it was better to stay as far away from the places of opportunities as possible.
Hearing Eunuch Liu say this, he naturally found an excuse to stop him.
After all, it was too easy to conceal his identity as the Fifth Prince, so he was not afraid of Eunuch Liu's suspicions.
However, Eunuch Liu still said, "No, no matter what, I have to go back to the places of opportunities to take a look!"
"No, Eunuch Liu, it's more important to look for my big brother first!" The Fifth Prince also insisted.
"Fifth Prince, how about this? I'll go back first. If there's nothing there, not only will I search for the First Prince with you, but I'll also immediately report this matter to His Majesty!" Eunuch Liu said.
Seeing that Eunuch Liu had already made up his mind, the Fifth Prince could only say, "Alright then."
After getting the Fifth Prince's agreement, Eunuch Liu turned and headed toward the places of opportunities.
An hour later, he, the Fifth Prince, and a few others finally arrived at the places of opportunities.
During this period of time, it was not just the three people from before. They had also pulled some people in to search for the First Prince.
After entering the places of opportunities, Eunuch Liu's expression immediately changed. This was because the wall in front of him had clearly been destroyed.
Obviously, someone had broken through the Runic Magic Formation and entered the fourth level.
Such a scene naturally delighted the Fifth Prince. However, he pretended to know nothing and asked. "Eunuch Liu, is this place very important?"
Eunuch Liu's expression had already become extremely unsightly. At this moment, he sighed and said, "Fifth Prince, you don't know, but this place actually leads to the fourth level."
"It can't be, right? This place leads to the fourth level?" Such words naturally caused the surrounding people to be shocked.
"Obviously, it's those two people from before who entered the fourth level!" Eunuch Liu said coldly.
"However, with their strength, even if they entered the fourth level, they wouldn't be able to deal with the ferocious beasts inside." The Fifth Prince pretended to be puzzled.
"There must be someone even more powerful behind them!" Eunuch Liu frowned.
At this moment, he had another guess, and that was that the person who had captured the First Prince was in cahoots with those two people. The reason they had captured the First Prince was to draw him away.
If he knew that the Fifth Prince was one of those people, he would probably be so infuriated that he would spit blood.
No, I have to report this matter to His Majesty immediately! Eunuch Liu immediately made a decision in his heart.
With this thought, he directly said to the Fifth Prince, "Fifth Prince, I have to go out and report this matter to His Majesty. I'll let him make a decision!"
"Alright." The Fifth Prince nodded.
At this moment, if he were to randomly think of a way to delay Eunuch Liu, he would definitely be suspected. Thus, the Fifth Prince naturally wouldn't do such a foolish thing.
Seeing the Fifth Prince nod, Eunuch Liu immediately started to silently recite a rune term.
Not long after, runes started to appear in the space around him. These runes quickly enveloped him, and then they slowly disappeared.
When they disappeared without a trace, Eunuch Liu had disappeared as well.
At this moment, Eunuch Liu had already returned to the training field.
"Eunuch Liu, why have you come out?" Seeing Eunuch Liu come out, the surrounding people couldn't help but be surprised.
These people knew why Eunuch Liu had gone in.
Eunuch Liu glanced at the surroundings and immediately said, "Where's His Majesty? I have something urgent to report! "
"What is it?" A eunuch asked puzzledly.
"The passage in the small palace has been opened, and someone has entered the fourth floor!" Eunuch Liu said with an ugly expression.
"What?" Such words immediately made the surrounding people look at each other in dismay.
These were all experts in the imperial palace, and they all knew the importance of this matter.
"His Majesty is currently in the Mental Cultivation Palace. Eunuch Liu, I'll bring you there!" One of the eunuchs immediately said.
Subsequently, this eunuch brought Eunuch Liu to the Mental Cultivation Palace.
Not long after, Eunuch Liu met the Emperor of the Icepeak Country in the Mental Cultivation Palace.
The Emperor looked to be in his fifties, and he had a dignified expression on his face.
Upon seeing the Emperor, Eunuch Liu immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, something big has happened!"
"What happened?" The Emperor frowned.
As soon as he saw Eunuch Liu here, he realized that something was wrong.
"The passage in the small palace has been opened, and someone has entered the fourth floor!" Eunuch Liu said.
"What?" Upon hearing this, the Emperor was immediately enraged. He pointed at Eunuch Liu and reprimanded, "Eunuch Liu, I sent you in to guard that place. How could you let someone enter the fourth floor?"
"This servant knows his mistake. However, this servant had no choice but to leave that place, and that person seized the opportunity," Eunuch Liu said with a bitter expression.
"No choice but to leave? What exactly made you leave? "The Emperor calmed down and said.
"The Fifth Prince said that the First Prince was captured and his life was in danger. I had no choice but to leave and rescue the First Prince," Eunuch Liu said.
"And then?"
"And then I couldn't find the First Prince. By the time I rushed back, the passage had already been opened," Eunuch Liu said.
"Then is it true that the First Prince was captured?" The Emperor frowned and asked.
"From the Fifth Prince's appearance, I don't think he would lie to me. However, I feel that the person who captured the First Prince should be in cahoots with the person who entered the fourth floor. They probably captured the First Prince to let me leave," Eunuch Liu said.
"Who is it? How dare they? If I catch them, I will definitely tear them apart!" The Emperor said angrily.
He then said, "Let's go to the training field!"
Not long after, the few of them arrived at the training field. The moment they arrived, the group of experts and important officials in the Imperial City carefully surrounded them.
They didn't need to see the Emperor's expression to know that he was definitely furious. When they saw the Emperor's expression, they didn't dare to make a sound.
The Emperor looked at one of them and said, "Open the passage to the secret realm immediately!"
With this order, the experts who had opened the passage to the secret realm immediately stood up. Not long after, a circle of light appeared in the center of them.
"All Level Five experts, follow me into the secret realm!" The Emperor looked at the people around him and said this. He was the first to walk into the circle of light.
The other Level Five experts hurriedly followed behind him.
With a flash of white light, they appeared in a dense forest.
Eunuch Liu, who had been here all along, quickly said to the Emperor when he saw where they were, "Your Majesty, follow me!"
After saying this, he hurriedly led the way.
After spending about an hour, they arrived in front of the land of opportunity. At this place, the Fifth Prince and the people from before stood there obediently to welcome them.
When the Emperor saw the Fifth Prince, he walked up to him with an ugly expression and said coldly, "Is it true that your big brother was captured?"
"It's absolutely true!" The Fifth Prince patted his chest and said.
"Then, do you know who they are?" the Emperor asked again.
"I don't know. I don't think I've seen them in the Imperial City before," the Fifth Prince said.
He had also said this to Eunuch Liu before.
"Is that so?" With a frown, the Emperor ignored the Fifth Prince and walked down the stairs. Eunuch Liu and the others hurriedly followed behind him.
Not long after, the Emperor and the others arrived in front of the wall. When he saw the situation before him, the Emperor's expression became even uglier.
This was because everything before him proved that someone had really entered the fourth level.
The fourth level was the forbidden area of the Icy Peak Country. It would only be opened at specific times to allow experts to enter and improve their strength. Now that someone had actually sneaked in, how could the Emperor's expression be good?
Moreover, once they entered, many places of opportunity would definitely be destroyed due to such a forceful entry.
It could be said that the other party's actions had directly caused the Icy Peak Country's strength to plummet. The Emperor's heart was completely bleeding.
No matter who it is, as long as I catch you, I will definitely tear you into pieces! He roared furiously in his heart.
"Open this passage immediately!" Then, he said coldly.
After Linlong and the others entered, the runic magic array on the wall slowly recovered. Therefore, there was no way for them to directly pass through.
"Yes!" The few experts immediately responded.
Then, they stood in front of the Emperor and two of them even took out the icy talismans they had on them.
Obviously, they opened the passage in the same way as Linlong and the others.
