"I want to become stronger! I have finished mastering the Bai family's magical techniques." Bai Lin looked up at him with determination.

"...Adelie, your background is not simple, is it? You accompany Bai Lin to explore places that may not be of any use to you, risking your life."

“Yiwei, firstly, there might be things I need in Fengmo Valley. Secondly, I’m risking my life not to accompany Bai Lin, but to accompany you,” Adeline said with a smile, but her words left Leng Yihan completely confused.

"Me? Why?"

“My hometown is the Elf Forest. I can sense the royal aura of the Elf Forest on you. This is the Queen’s recognition of you.”

The people of the Elf Forest... I see.

Leng Yihan finally understood why Adrie was level 50 now; she was from the Elf Forest, a level 70 dungeon...

"Then why aren't you in the Elf Forest?"

"The Empress's request is for me to help the Bai family's heir inherit the Bai family's legacy."

"Huh? I don't understand what you're saying at all. Xiaoli, please explain." Bai Lin was completely confused by what the two were saying. Could it be that her childhood friend also had an extraordinary background?

"Let me explain... In short, it's about helping you inherit the Bai family's things. You guys pack your things, let's go now, the three of us are enough." Leng Yihan stood up, put away the Bai family pendant and the Netherworld Key, rolled up the map, and walked out the door.

"Hurry up, we'll be waiting for you at the village entrance."

After saying that, Leng Yihan slipped out of the room and ran towards the village entrance.

Half an hour later, Bai Lin and Adeline, who had finished getting ready, appeared in front of the village.

"Here!" Leng Yihan deactivated her invisibility and waved to the two of them.

"Alright, how do we get there now?" Bai Lin said, carrying a long sword in her hand, but her clothes were unusually thick, making her look quite comical.

"Sigh... Let's go into the forest. Here, take this cloak and change out of it." Leng Yihan rummaged through her backpack and took out the Flame Cloak, which had been obtained from a level 50 area, and handed it to Bai Lin.

"Ah...ah, I understand." Bai Lin put on the cloak, which indeed made her much warmer. She took off the extra clothes underneath, leaving only an ordinary outfit and armor.

"White Wolf." As soon as Leng Yihan entered the forest, she took out a spherical object and threw it to the ground.

A white wolf jumped out of the ball, startling the two people behind it.

[Poké Ball/White Wolf: Summon the mount White Wolf.]

"Come on up, my mount. It's very well-behaved, it'll be fine."

"Awoo!"

After hearing Leng Yihan's words, the white wolf barked and nuzzled affectionately against Adrie.

As expected of someone from the Elf Forest, the animals are indeed very friendly towards her.

"Hmm... okay..." After hearing this, Bai Lin climbed onto the white wolf with some fear. After Bai Lin got on, Adelie also followed and rode on.

"Hold on to my waist, let's go!" Leng Yihan gently patted the white wolf, and the white wolf immediately rushed out, running towards the chosen place.

Thank goodness this is just a game... I wouldn't do something as flashy as riding a wolf...

Suddenly feeling the softness behind her, Leng Yihan's body stiffened instantly.

Five minutes later, the white wolf suddenly stopped and let out a few low growls.

"Whhhhh... What's going on? Why did you suddenly stop walking..." Bai Lin tightly hugged Leng Yihan's waist, pressing her whole body against Leng Yihan, afraid that she would fall off if she wasn't careful.

"We're here... Can you let go now...? You can dismount the wolf now..."

"Ah? Okay, okay..." After Bai Lin let go of her hands and jumped off the wolf, Leng Yihan finally felt relaxed, and her stiff body felt much better.

"White Wolf, come back!"

"Awoo!"

After saying that, Leng Yihan threw the Poké Ball at the white wolf. The Poké Ball flashed white light, and the white wolf disappeared.

"Huh? Yiwei, what is this?" Bai Lin looked curiously at the Poké Ball in Leng Yihan's hand.

"Ah... this is called a Poké Ball, it can summon a mount."

While Leng Yihan explained with a smile, she was also inwardly complaining about the Oracle's perverse sense of humor. Mounts were a kind of transportation tool for the Oracle, since there were some places where teleportation was not possible and walking was very slow. After being criticized for a long time, the Oracle released this thing called mounts, which required summoning with a Poké Ball.

“Wait, where is the Sealed Demon Valley?” Adrie looked around curiously. Although she felt something was wrong, she still couldn’t see the Sealed Demon Valley.

"The demonic power of Fengmo Valley has a great impact on mounts, Bai Lin, put this on properly."

"Ah? Okay." Leng Yihan took out the Bai family pendant and handed it to Bai Lin.

"Don't stray too far from Bai Lin now. If anything seems amiss, run away immediately."

"Understood!" After the two returned, the three of them cautiously made their way towards the Sealed Demon Valley.

After walking 100 meters, the view suddenly opened up, revealing a huge cave entrance filled with thick purple mist.

"It's like two different worlds..." Bai Lin said blankly.

Indeed, it looks as if there is another world beneath the purple mist.

Next to the Sealed Demon Valley is a staircase that looks like it was built by man, spiraling down along the wall.

The stairs were narrow; it was safe for one person to walk, but dangerous for two. The three decided that Adeline would walk at the back, Bai Lin in the middle, and Leng Yihan at the front.

The three of them slowly descended the stairs. The dense purple mist would automatically disperse about 8 meters away from them as they approached, or more precisely, from the pendant.

"This must be the function of the pendant. Without the pendant, the purple mist wouldn't disperse." After Leng Yihan finished speaking, she continued to act as the trailblazer.

gone

After walking down the stairs for ten minutes, Leng Yihan suddenly noticed that a large area of ​​purple mist had dispersed ahead, and realized that she had reached the first BOSS.

The purple mist dispersed to reveal a huge circular platform. The BOSS stood at the other end of the platform, while the stairs leading downwards were behind the BOSS.

After stepping onto the platform, the BOSS did not attack them, but continued to sleep.

"Be careful, don't leave the circular area with a radius of four meters centered on Bai Lin." Based on the distance the purple mist dissipated when they descended, Leng Yihan estimated that the pendant's effective range was a three-dimensional sphere with a diameter of eight meters.

Knowing they couldn't defeat the BOSS, the three decided to try to flank him from behind.

As a result, the BOSS didn't even glance at them before they entered the next long staircase.

After walking for another ten minutes, they arrived at the second platform, which should be the second BOSS.

So far, they are the first group to reach the second boss in Fengmo Valley.

Nightmare Knight

Nightmare Beast

The second boss is holding a long spear and is covered in armor. His eyes are completely black, so he is probably still asleep.

The creature beneath it should be the Nightmare Beast; the final boss of the level 25 dungeon is a weakened version of the Nightmare Beast.

Both bosses were asleep, signaling that they should not make any noise. The three of them quietly bypassed the bosses and went up the stairs behind them.

No battles occurred during the journey. However, when they passed the BOSS, all three of them were very nervous, worried that the BOSS might suddenly wake up and catch them off guard.

But even as they entered the staircase, the BOSS was still asleep.

"Those two were the reason why Fengmo Valley became a forbidden area, right?" asked Adeline, who was at the very end of the group.

“That’s right.” Leng Yihan nodded.

Although we don't know what the second boss is like, based on the first boss and the terrain alone, no player in the entire server could defeat it.

After walking for another ten minutes, the three arrived at the platform where the third BOSS was located.

The third boss is a tiger-man, which is a standing tiger with a purplish-black body and a strange dagger in its hand.

Everyone initially thought everything was fine, but as they approached the tiger-man, it suddenly opened its eyes, looked around, and, finding nothing amiss, closed its eyes again and continued to sleep.

The moment they opened their eyes again, the three of them thought they were doomed. Fortunately, although the tiger-man had keen perception, he still didn't notice them.

Having narrowly escaped danger, Leng Yihan breathed a sigh of relief as she stepped onto the stairs once more, though she didn't know if there were any more bosses below.

This time, it took 20 minutes to climb the stairs before we reached the bottom. The surrounding purple mist had already dissipated, and we had reached the very bottom of the Sealed Demon Valley.

"We've finally arrived..." The three of them breathed a sigh of relief.

"You've finally arrived." The three of them, who had just relaxed, immediately jumped up again. When they looked up, they saw the three bosses above them.

"Oh no!" Leng Yihan exclaimed in alarm. She immediately tried to escape with the two of them, but they were already surrounded and killed by a bunch of skeletons.

"Don't be afraid, we mean you no harm... provided you cooperate with us..." said the lich, the boss of the first floor, its face mask obscuring its expression.

“Bai Lin, don’t be afraid… They said if we cooperate with them, they won’t do anything to us… right, Mr. Lich?” Leng Yihan held Bai Lin’s trembling hand to comfort her, and then asked the Lich.

"Hmm~ That's right, you only need to send one person to die. After all, you can't possibly pass the trial, so one of you has to die." The lich said with a grin, which made Leng Yihan's heart, which had sunk to the bottom, jump up.

Holy crap! Could that trial be related to a power that can kill a true god?!

"Oh dear... young man, don't be afraid. It seems you're ready to sacrifice yourself." The lich saw Leng Yihan's trembling body and mistakenly thought he was afraid, but couldn't understand the look of surprise on Leng Yihan's face.

"snuggle……"

Bai Lin grasped Leng Yihan's hand in return, unsure of what to say.

"Bai Lin should be able to get something, right?"

Leng Yihan took a deep breath and pointed to Bai Lin beside her.

“That’s right. We made a vow with the Bai family patriarch. We will guard the Bai family’s legacy for him, ensuring that the Bai family’s descendants can inherit it safely and leave. In return, he will participate in the trials to shorten the days of the seal for us.” The lich said, pointing to the altar that the tiger-man was standing on.

"snuggle……"

"You inherit the legacy, I will participate in the trials."

"But he just said it himself, the trial is impossible to complete!"

Bai Lin frantically grabbed Leng Yihan, who seemed to be courting death in her eyes.

"Yiwei, you should stay. It would be an honor to die for the elven royal family..."

"I said... trust me, okay? Don't worry, I'll live. You can just relax and wait to leave while the other inherits the legacy." Leng Yihan patted Bai Lin's head before turning and walking towards the tiger-man.

"I've come to participate in your trial!"

18. On the Netherworld Trials and the Netherworld Dancers

“I’ve come to participate in your trial.” Leng Yihan turned around and walked towards the tiger-man.

"This is not our trial, but a trial set by one of the eight Netherworld Gods. Two little girls, come with me." The tiger-man turned and left the altar, taking Bai Lin and Adeline with him, leaving the other three BOSSes to begin the trial.
