Fang You immediately returned.

After her upgrade, Sister An could not only enter the Ghastly Realm at will, but her departures were much more convenient and safer than before, even if they required a bit of “chanting time”.

Yet,

that massive shadow lingered in his mind and refused to dissipate.

What level of Mysterious Evil was that? Even with Fang You’s full firepower, now possessing the “Power to Break Buildings”, the thought of confronting such a monstrous presence, towering like a mountain, couldn’t bring him to muster a spirit of resistance.

At that time, they were still a few, perhaps tens of kilometers away, or even further.

And yet he was still shaken.

And this was merely what they encountered within thirteen minutes of entering the Ghastly Realm, after having traveled only a few hundred meters.

The giant shadow was merely passing by and hadn’t set its sights on them… perhaps they were no more than ants in the eyes of such a terrifying being, not worth mentioning.

But,

“How many such terrifying beings exist in the Ghastly Realm? Are they extremely rare, or… could one encounter them occasionally?”

He felt the latter was more likely.

What worried him more was, if such monsters descended upon the real world, what then?

“It’s not unfounded worry.”

“From the initial few Mysterious Evils, to now, Calamity Level four-star Mysterious Evils being able to slip through the net, in the future, it wouldn’t be impossible for those kinds of shadows to appear.”

“The difference is whether by that time, I, I of the Perpetual Flame, will have the ability to confront them.”

As long as I improve fast enough, danger won’t catch up to me.

But, acquiring 400 Mysteries for the third awakening and, assuming the same rate of increase, at least 8000 for the fourth, it would be very hard to accumulate that much in a short time.

Even if you could, apart from the Mystery value, the conditions for the fourth awakening were definitely extremely stringent.

Compared with him, An Jianyou was even more terrified, her heart thumping so loud he could hear it then and there.

“Whether it’s for the resources of the Ghastly Realm, Strange Implements, or to gain more information and understanding, the Ghastly Realm is a must-go.”

“Now we have the option not to go, but if we wait until the great disaster fully arrives and then regret it, it’s better to start preparing now and prevent it before it happens.”

“However, I myself am not suited for going.”

Don’t get it wrong, it isn’t that Fang You, the Savior, the Perpetual Flame Instructor, is afraid of death. After much consideration and calculation, he’s just not fit for taking risks on the front lines.

Because he can arrive at any time.

If danger arises, he can possess Little Illusion and descend to the rescue.

He can hold off the enemy, buying time for An Jianyou and the others to escape, and he himself can return quickly by releasing the possession.

As for Little Illusion? Her problem was even smaller.

As long as her core exists, Ethereal Spirits won’t perish and can regenerate endlessly.

This was the optimal choice.

He called for Black Blade, An Jianyou, and Xing Jing Lei, who had just returned to rest.

“I have an important mission for you.”

Seeing the instructor’s solemn expression,

Black Blade was as expressionless as ever, and his expressions could not be seen.

An Jianyou looked like she was close to tears.

“Instructor…”

She really wanted to weakly ask if she could not go, but the words transformed at her lips into, “Don’t worry, Instructor, I will definitely complete the mission!”

This seemed to be a very important mission.

It hadn’t appeared on the mission list but was personally entrusted by the mysterious instructor… Had she finally entered the core circle, gaining access to the organization’s secrets?

Excellent!

Xing Jing Lei’s blood boiled with excitement.

The three of them looked very enthusiastic.

Fang You said, “The goal of this mission is to survey the Ghastly Realm’s situation and to find resources and things that are different from the real world, but safety always comes first, prioritize staying alive.”

“I will provide remote support for you. The specific action plan will be arranged by you.”

The data had already been sent to them in the form of “mission briefings”.

After some discussion, An Jianyou made the only suggestion, “Just don’t enter from Baijiang City.”

…

Training Base One,

The bustling sounds in his ears receded, replaced by the hiss of Mysterious Evils and the gray fog that obscured vision.

“Is this the Ghastly Realm?”

“Hiss!”

Xing Jing Lei punched, blasting apart several Mysterious Evils, but the thought of the ground teeming with them also gave him the creeps.

Looking at the torch in An Jianyou’s hand, “Is this thing reliable, or is it going to go out suddenly?”

“It could.”

“It goes out when the fuel is used up, so make sure to have backups.”

This was breathing heavily… Xing Jing Lei didn’t know that An Jianyou was even more anxious than him, he was barely holding back a heart attack, after all, the Ghastly Realm was described as extremely terrifying in the descriptions, and if they didn’t have such torches, they could be devoured by Mysterious Evil in an instant.

Who isn’t afraid of death?

He also held a Bright Torch in his hand, just in case, to light it if it suddenly went out.

And according to the tactical arrangement, the Mysterious Evil controlled by Miss An would serve as the main force around them.

If a three-star Mysterious Evil appeared, Miss An’s pet would distract it while the formidable Black Blade quickly killed it.

He…

“Your fighting style consumes life energy too quickly, so save it for when the situation is dire; under normal circumstances, just pay more attention to the surroundings and the burning of the torch,” said Black Blade.

So he was just a freeloader for the entire journey?

…

Perpetual Flame Secret Realm, Angel Envoy Dormitory.

The smartphone with the Savior Game hung in front of him, having switched to An Jianyou’s perspective, allowing him to see the training base in the Ghastly Realm – the original Shui Lan Resort.

The buildings stood as if weathered, but were actually quite intact, with little damage from Mysterious Evils.

The city area he had seen at Baijiang last time was also very complete.

He pondered.

Watching the screen, the three were cautiously proceeding through the Ghastly Realm, surrounded only by the hissing of Mysterious Evils and the slight sound of the Bright Torches burning.

An Jianyou and the others were incredibly tense, careful with every move, and Fang You was no less concerned.

This team was the core strength of Perpetual Flame, irreplaceable, and after having been together for so long, they were friends. Even if Xing Jing Lei were to die, he would be heartbroken for a while.

He stared intently, without blinking.

Suddenly, a line of prompts popped up abruptly.

“Ding!”

“Prompt: Having walked 1000 meters in the Ghastly Realm, the new module ‘Ghastly Realm Exploration’ has been unlocked. Please check the details on your own.”

Fang You: “!!!”

The modules of the Salvation Game so far were ‘Fate Extraction’, ‘Angel Envoy List’, ‘Item Overview’, ‘Mission Dispatch’, and ‘Organizational Base’. The two that remained locked, which he had examined before and roughly guessed to be ‘XX Exploration’ and ‘Instance XX’.

But there had been no clues as to how to unlock them, and as time passed, he had almost forgotten about this module.

It’s unlocked now?

What is the use of the Ghastly Realm Exploration module?

“Xiao Huan, you continue to watch over An Jianyou and the others, and notify me immediately if anything happens.”

“Okay~!”

Her figure appeared, and then a light screen was cast upon the wall, displaying An Jianyou’s perspective.

Fang You manipulated his phone, switching to the ‘Ghastly Realm Exploration’ module.

As soon as he entered, a gray fog obscured the entire interface; then it slowly dissipated, revealing an interface resembling a small map.

Unlike the task maps in reality, this map was extremely simple, somewhat pixelated, with grid-like squares. It represented the team of An Jianyou and the three others with a circular icon, in the top right corner of which a torch was inserted, displaying ‘Remaining Time: 26:39’.

The surrounding map was black, with only a small white circle illuminated by the torch. The areas that the team had walked through were shown in light gray.

This was definitely an exploration map, but what was it used for?

This Salvation Game never made it easy, no matter the module. He always had to figure it out himself, without straightforward guidance.

Fang You thought about it as he searched for any interactive elements within the interface, but there were none.

There was only a slowly moving circular icon and the darkness that filled the entire map area.

But suddenly,

a tree-shaped icon appeared from within the darkness, located at the eleven o’clock direction from An Jianyou and her team, separated by quite a distance.

He thought for a moment and sent over an instruction.

…

“Eleven o’clock direction, the instructor’s command,” said Black Blade.

He spoke out, leading the group from the very front, his eyes sharply scanning the surroundings.

So far, the highest level Mysterious Evil they had encountered was three stars. They didn’t dare to be careless—battles were concluded within five seconds, and they made as little noise as possible to avoid attracting the attention of more Mysterious Evils.

Under the cover of the bright torch, they were almost semi-invisible to the Mysterious Evils, but they were far from being reckless.

In just a short amount of time, they had already caught glimpses of massive figures several times.

They would avoid them whenever possible.

If they encountered Calamity Level Mysterious Evils, with their current capabilities, they might only be able to make a desperate break.

Black Blade had a very strong sense of direction. When he said eleven o’clock, he was spot on, and the team moved forward.

However, the surroundings, beyond the resort, were just mountain forests. Tree after tree was withered, the earth cracked and gray-brown in color, with nothing else around.

Criminal Shock Thunder muttered to himself, then suddenly widened his eyes.

A tree appeared in his view, but this was a tree completely different from the other trees!

The trunk twisted upwards in a spiral, about tens of meters high, and the branches and leaves were tinged with a blood-red color, on which seemed to hang fruits.

Too far away to see clearly due to the gray fog that enveloped them,

But then,

“Found something different from reality!”

“The instructor’s order really has a great purpose! What should we do now, pick those fruits? I, the great… I think they must be treasures,” said Criminal Shock Thunder, eager to try.

But Black Blade wasn’t impulsive. He pondered for a moment and looked at An Jianyou, “Find a Mysterious Evil to test it.”

“Understood.”

An Jianyou sent out the Bone Knight.

Under her control, the knight rode the bone horse forward, flipping over some Mysterious Evils along the way, and arrived underneath the blood-red large tree.

Suddenly,

Boom—

A blood-red giant serpent seemed to burst out from the twisted trunk, much larger than the Bone Knight, and in an instant, it coiled around him, constricting, and bit down with its gaping mouth.

An Jianyou covered her head, “Dead, dead.”

A three-star Mysterious Evil was killed in two or three hits.

Fear flashed in her eyes.

And Black Blade made a swift decision, “Retreat.”

They moved quickly away for several hundred meters, and only when no danger followed did they sigh with relief.

“What was that?”

An Jianyou was still shaken, but Instructor Black Blade shook his head, indicating that he didn’t know either.

And Criminal Shock Thunder, the brute? Even less need to ask.

She patted the tablet, her heart still pounding, trying to calm down.

At that moment, the instructor sent them another instruction, to remember this location for a future visit. For now, head west.

So they continued west.

This time they were even more cautious. Before the torch was about to go out, they lit another, transitioning seamlessly.

An Jianyou was somewhat frightened.

But along with the fear, there was a bit of anticipation, like exploring a fantastical world, where it was unclear what fate awaited them next.

Could they find a treasure land? Yes, preferably one without monsters guarding it.

She thought to herself.

The gray fog was like a gauze, lifting layer by layer as they moved forward.

After about half an hour, a towering object loomed in and out of the fog.

Compared to the surrounding woods, it stood out distinctly.

Could it be another peculiar large tree?

But as they continued, she realized it wasn’t, as the surrounding gray fog became much thinner, allowing them to clearly see the distance, even hundreds of meters away.

A black stone tower came into view.

It clearly wasn’t formed naturally!

A voice came from within the black stone tower.

It sounded like a female human, with very strange syllables, seemingly a language she didn’t recognize. But suddenly, she understood it.

“From a world yet to be devoured, human, I have been waiting for you for a long time.”
