"The Ruined Mountain Range?"
Both Illusory Words and Unyielding Heart were momentarily stunned, their expressions turning indescribably grim.
Neither Illusory Words nor Unyielding Heart were unfamiliar with the Ruined Mountain Range. In fact, the various superpowers were quite familiar with the name.
There were quite a few danger zones in Level 100-plus neutral maps. The various superpowers had also explored higher-level neutral maps. Some superpowers had even explored Level 130 to Level 150 neutral maps.
Of all the various superpowers' exploration teams, none of the expert parties that had ventured into the Ruined Mountain Range had returned alive.
That's right!
None of the players that had entered the Ruined Mountain Range had returned alive. Moreover, the Ruined Mountain Range was only a Level 120-plus neutral map. Not only had none of the players that had entered the Ruined Mountain Range returned alive, but they hadn't even known how they had died …
Afterward, the various superpowers had stopped trying to explore the Ruined Mountain Range. After all, every player capable of entering a Level 120-plus neutral map was an extremely powerful expert. Even the weakest player had reached the Flowing Water Realm. If they lost too many of these experts, the various superpowers wouldn't be able to afford it.
Because of this, the Ruined Mountain Range had become an absolute forbidden zone for the various superpowers.
Even now, the various superpowers had begun to nurture Level 118-plus experts. None of them dared to enter the Ruined Mountain Range.
Unyielding Heart's heart pounded as he asked, "Do we really have to go there?"
Peak experts were the pillars of their Guilds. If even one of these experts died, it would be enough to make the various superpowers' hearts ache. If several dozen of these experts died, it would be a nightmare.
"Mhm, we have to. This is the prerequisite for success," Shifeng said, nodding confidently.
If possible, he didn't want to explore the Ruined Mountain Range. However, to earn a large amount of resources, the Ruined Mountain Range was his only option.
The Ruined Mountain Range was the lowest-level forbidden zone at this stage of the game. Players only needed to reach Level 120 to enter the Ruined Mountain Range. Moreover, the Ruined Mountain Range was one of the forbidden zones that the various superpowers had explored the most in the past.
Although the Ruined Mountain Range was a forbidden zone, it wasn't a forbidden zone for life. It was only a forbidden zone for humans.
The Ruined Mountain Range was extremely dangerous for humans, but it wasn't so dangerous for non-human creatures.
Most importantly, the clue he had obtained regarding the God Slayer's whereabouts pointed to the Ruined Mountain Range.
Based on his analysis of the map's clues and his previous understanding of the Ruined Mountain Range, he concluded that the Ruined Mountain Range was likely one of the God Slayer's treasures.
The Earthfall Secret Realm!
Shi Feng had only heard of the Earthen Fall Secret Land in the past. Although he did not know who had activated the Earthen Fall Secret Land, the Five Great Super Guilds had gone to war because of the Earthen Fall Secret Land. Over 40 Tier 5 players had participated in the war, and the war had nearly leveled the Ruined Mountain Range's outer area.
As for what exactly was in the Earthfall Secret Realm, there were various rumors in the outside world.
Shortly after the Earthfall Secret Land had appeared, three of the Five Great Super Guilds had sealed off the area, preventing outsiders from entering. Even the Guild's internal members were barred from entering. Only Tier 4 core members were allowed to enter the secret land.
But one thing was for sure.
The Earthfall Secret Land was an alternate space created by the God Slayer. Inside the secret land, there was a massive amount of wealth and ore veins. Magic Crystals could be found everywhere.
Because of this, he decided to take a look at the Earthfall Secret Realm.
However, entering the Ruined Mountain Range wasn't an easy task, even if Shi Feng was a Tier 4 player. In the past, countless Tier 4 players had died in the Ruined Mountain Range. There were even plenty of Tier 5 players that had died there. It wasn't a place that could be entered by relying on one person.
Hence, Shi Feng planned to gather the strength of two Guilds to explore the Ruined Mountain Range.
"The Ruined Mountain Range is extraordinary. With just a team of less than 100 peak experts from our two Guilds, I'm afraid it will be very difficult," Illusory Words suggested. "Why don't we send a few more Tier 3 players? That way, we'll have a better chance of success."
Every Tier 3 peak expert was incredibly valuable, but ordinary Tier 3 experts weren't as important. If Shi Feng encountered something dangerous, he could simply send ordinary Tier 3 experts to scout for him instead of sending Tier 3 peak experts to take the risk.
This method was also commonly used by the various superpowers when exploring forbidden lands.
"No!" Shifeng shook his head. Chuckling, he said, "Your Guilds won't be the only experts participating. There will be other experts joining us as well."
"Other experts?"
"Is it safe?"
Illusory Words and Unyielding Heart were confused when they heard Shi Feng's words. This operation was clearly a top secret. Outsiders couldn't possibly receive an invitation.
Moreover, this operation clearly had very high requirements for players. They found it hard to believe that Ling Yi actually had other powerful allies.
"Mhm, it's very safe. They aren't weak, either. They're strong enough to participate in this operation," Shifeng said, chuckling.
The Five Great Super Guilds valued the Earthen Fall Secret Land. Once he arrived there, he naturally wouldn't allow Crimson Emperor and Unyielding Soul's members to explore it.
Hence, he wasn't the only one participating in this operation. He also needed to bring some of his own people.
Only, he couldn't let outsiders know that these people were Ling Yi's own people.
Following which, Shifeng had Illusory Words and Unyielding Heart gather the Guild's peak experts. As for himself, he contacted the Asura Adventurers and borrowed the Asura Adventurers' strength to complete this operation.
As for the Secret Covenant Tower, Shi Feng left it to Fire Dance and the others. After all, this trip to the Ruined Mountain Range would take a lot of time. Meanwhile, Fire Dance and the others were already strong enough to challenge their Promotion Quests.
Black Dragon Empire, Thousand Rock Town:
As the teleportation array flashed, Unyielding Soul's and Crimson Emperor's peak experts arrived one after another. This was a border town that was practically devoid of human activity.
Although Thousand Rock Town was a small town, there weren't many NPCs in the town. This was because the town was very close to the Ruined Mountain Range, a forbidden land for humans. Even NPCs didn't want to get too close to the Ruined Mountain Range.
Blue Gown glanced at the deserted street before turning to Shifeng beside her. She then asked Illusory Words curiously, "Big Sis Illusory, who do you think President Hei Yan will invite this time?"
In her opinion, their team of peak experts was extremely rare even in God's Domain. She found it hard to imagine where Ling Yi would find a team that could rival theirs.
After all, their team had Illusory Words, an apex Cleric in God's Domain, and Unyielding Heart, a Great Warrior who could rival defensive classes. They also had her, one of the top three Guardian Knights in Crimson Emperor's main force.
Most likely, only the Five Great Super Guilds could field such a powerful team.
"I don't know. Based on the information we've gathered, only the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's Feng Qianyu is capable of fielding such a powerful team. However, ever since Feng Qianyu's incident, Ling Yi no longer has any powerful allies," Illusory Words said, shaking her head. She, too, was curious about this matter.
However, shortly after Illusory Words and Blue Gown's conversation, over a dozen streaks of light appeared from the teleportation array.
When these people appeared, Illusory Words, Unyielding Heart, and the others were all shocked.
Every one of these people radiated frighteningly powerful auras. By the looks of it, not only had they fully unlocked their Mana Bodies, but they had also unlocked their Mana Bodies' full potential.
Illusory Words and Unyielding Heart couldn't help but take the callous man leading the group seriously.
The Lightning Demon, Lifeless Thorn!
Lifeless Thorn was a ruthless man who constantly challenged the various great experts of God's Domain. Some time ago, he had even fought Mu Tiankui, the Snow Shadow Wolf King, one of the Battle Wolves' Wolf Kings, to a draw. The Secret Pavilion had even labeled him as one of the eastern continent's top ten rookie geniuses.
Not only had Lifeless Thorn reached Level 122, but he also wore a total of seven pieces of Epic Equipment. Although the spear he carried on his back had its glow effect hidden, based on the ancient runes on its surface, it definitely wasn't an ordinary Epic Weapon.
"Asura Adventurers!"
"Why are they here?"
Illusory Words, Unyielding Heart, and the others were confused. After all, the Asura Adventurers was one of the top adventurer teams in God's Domain. Moreover, they had a mysterious background. The adventurer team had raided many extremely difficult large-scale Team Dungeons, and every member of the team possessed unfathomable strength. Quite a few of the team's members had even reached the Transcendent Realm in terms of combat techniques. Their combat power was extraordinary, and many superpowers had frantically tried to recruit the adventurer team.
However, the Asura Adventurers had rejected every one of their offers. Many superpowers held a grudge against the Asura Adventurers, and many of them had sent teams of peak experts to deal with the Asura Adventurers. In the end, however, they had returned empty-handed and suffered heavy losses.
"Everyone's here. Let's go."
