345: Dangerous place opens

Jason also received the news. When he found Lai Wen, Lai Wen was frowning in contemplation.

"Minister, you received the news about the Man in Black, right?"

"I did."

Lai Wen smoothed his brow and spoke softly.

Seeing this, Jason had no choice but to ask, "Minister, do you know the Man in Black's origin?"

Lai Wen waved his hand and projected an image, showing the Man in Black effortlessly wiping out the entire checkpoint.

It should be noted that among the fallen warriors, there were Great Saint Peak powerhouses.

Although Jason had received the news, this was the first time he had seen this image.

After watching it, Jason, like Lai Wen, furrowed his brow.

After a long silence, Jason said, "From this person's physique, he is not from Silver Sea or Phantom Poison Universe. He is more similar in physique to the Human race of Yuan Ling Universe."

Lai Wen shook his head, "The five Great Sage Kings of Yuan Ling Universe are all in the fortresses of the base and have not left. This should be an outsider, an extremely powerful outsider. Jason, can you replicate his simple wave of a hand?"

Jason was speechless; he could not.

Lai Wen continued, "According to the camp leader, that dangerous place will only open in about ten days. We should wait patiently."

Jason hesitated to speak, as he roughly understood from the inquiries that this cosmic core should be light-attributed, and his subconscious wanted to request reinforcements.

However, remembering Lai Wen's previous attitude, he ultimately did not bring it up.

Lai Wen watched the departing Jason and murmured, "A light-attributed cosmic core? I will not hand it over so easily."

Xun Xiuyuan and Nangong Feiyun, along with others, arrived near the dangerous place not long after Huan You and Huan Xuan.

The group went straight to the vicinity of the entrance to that dangerous place.

Xun Xiuyuan asked in surprise, "I don't see an entrance?"

Nangong Feiyun was also puzzled and could only say, "Perhaps our location isn't quite accurate. Let's look again."

The others also had no better ideas and all agreed to Nangong Feiyun's plan.

Five days later, everyone returned to this place. This time, Yang Long spoke, "According to the captives, this dangerous place opens at a set time, and it's not time yet."

Just then, Nangong Feiyun's communication jade received a message.

Even Xun Xiuyuan's communication jade received a message.

The two simultaneously took out their communication jades, and after receiving the messages, they exchanged glances.

Xun Xiuyuan spoke first, "Titan Sacred Beast and Elder Feng Lin have arrived. They are not far from us. They want us to go and meet them."

Nangong Feiyun nodded, "I received the same message."

Following the coordinates given in the communication jade, everyone quickly found Titan and Feng Lin.

Titan was also very happy to see everyone and laughed, "You guys are really good; you haven't suffered any significant casualties."

In fact, this was all Xun Xiuyuan's credit. Whether facing the Illusory Poison Human race or the Silver Sea Human race, Xun Xiuyuan could fully suppress them.

As long as the realm gap was not too great, Xun Xiuyuan could be said to move unimpeded within.

Xun Xiuyuan said, "The news we received is that the entrance to the dangerous place will open in four days. What should we do then?"

Feng Lin did not speak but looked at Titan.

Titan scratched his head and said, "Let's go in last. We don't know who else has come from other Universes. If many Sage Kings arrive, we'll just head back home."

Although he spoke in a joking tone, his words were filled with helplessness.

Feng Lin laughed, "Don't be so pessimistic. A fire-attributed cosmic core, Sage Kings should not participate, unless it's a rare-attributed cosmic core, then Sage Kings would fight for it."

Xun Xiuyuan asked in confusion, "What if it really is a rare-attributed cosmic core? Do we just give up?"

Feng Lin shook his head, "Give up? How could we? Then we would have to let the Grand Elders contend for it."

Finally, Titan waved his hand, releasing a barrier that enveloped everyone, and said, "This is a barrier that conceals aura. Everyone, don't go out these next few days. Just wait for the dangerous place to open."

The day before the dangerous place opened, a Man in Black arrived near it.

The Man in Black noticed the presence of others, yet still sat down without a care directly above the entrance to the dangerous place, as if he were the master of heaven and earth.

Titan and the others naturally also saw the Man in Black.

At this moment, Titan's expression was extremely grave. He said in a deep voice, "After the dangerous place opens, try your best to return to the base. This Man in Black is a Sage King, and a very powerful one at that."

Feng Lin also looked at the Man in Black in the sky with a solemn expression.

Huan You and Huan Xuan were also watching the strangely behaving Man in Black at this time.

"Big Brother, I can't see through this person's strength. I wonder how many elements his Sage King power encompasses?"

Huan You did not answer Huan Xuan's question, but instead stared with a solemn expression.

The so-called number of elements for a Sage King refers to the number of cosmic cores integrated into his inner World.

For example, Huan You, having integrated six cosmic cores of metal, wood, water, fire, earth, and soul, is naturally a six-element Sage King.

After a long while, Huan You slowly spoke, "This person should also be a six-element Sage King. When fighting, you must be careful. Do not get close to him."

A six-element Sage King can deal with a single-element Sage King like Huan Xuan with just a flick of his wrist.

Although they are all Sage Kings, their strengths differ greatly.

Lai Wen was also looking at the Man in Black at this time, a strange look flashing in his eyes. Six elements? Or seven elements?

Lai Wen is also a six-element Sage King, but he couldn't quite discern the Man in Black's strength, which shows that Lai Wen's strength is still somewhat inferior to Huan You's.

A day passed quickly. The spatial fluctuations below where the Man in Black was sitting became increasingly violent.

Everyone present knew that this was a sign that the dangerous place was about to open.

Titan was very calm, showing no excitement, and slowly said, "We are not in a hurry. If things become impossible, we will return to the base."

That sneak attack ten thousand years ago made Titan act even more cautiously.

Finally, in the space below where the Man in Black was sitting, a circular portal appeared.

The moment the portal opened, a bright light shone out, and with the appearance of the light, there was also an extreme heatwave. Even space was frequently distorted by this scorching heatwave.

The Man in Black simply waved his hand gently.

A barrier-like light curtain suddenly appeared on the outer layer of the Man in Black. The Man in Black, who had stood up, was like someone standing inside an eggshell, floating gracefully into the dangerous place.

It was clear that this barrier had no aura of a formation; it was simply a means of creation from nothingness.

The Man in Black, protected by the 'eggshell', directly entered the dangerous place, being the first to do so.

Huan You also arrived at the entrance of the dangerous place. Without a word, his small figure stepped directly inside.

Following closely behind Huan You was Lai Wen, whose enormous figure, like an iron tower, entered the dangerous place.
