This letter only recorded a little bit of the outside world’s records. Without a doubt, it was all about how powerful the outside world was and this was just a place that had been abandoned.

As for the truth of the matter, Ye Chen had never doubted it. When he first came to the wilderness, Ye Chen had already suspected that even if the system was very powerful, it would not let all the wild beasts in the wilderness enter a weak state and thus be unable to attack humans.

It was also because this was a special place that there was such a possibility. There were no powerful existences here. The system’s protection could ensure that nothing went wrong.

Until now, other than his few Divine Beasts, the strongest existence Ye Chen had seen was the Blood Hawk that had entered its Decline Stage. Ye Chen had never seen a wild beast stronger than it.

Furthermore, after the Beast Tide ended, Ye Chen also asked Kun Peng to bring him around the vicinity. He wanted to see how big the Beast Tide was and how strong those beasts were. However, all of this surprised him.

The coverage was neither big nor small. Why wasn’t there a particularly strong beast?

If there were a few adult A-Rank beasts, Ye Chen would be in grave danger even if the Titan Ape was here.

This was not Ye Chen showing off but a sense of desire for the truth. Seeing this letter confirmed Ye Chen’s thoughts.

“Where is this ruin? Bring me to take a look.” Ye Chen sighed and decided to go to the place where the letter was found to see if there was anything else.

“Master, I’ll bring you there,” the Immortal Phoenix said immediately.

“Alright, Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal, you stay here and watch over the Divine Court and Kun Peng. Don’t let anything happen to them.” Ye Chen nodded before turning to speak to the Titan Ape.

“Alright.” The Titan Ape nodded.

…

The Immortal Phoenix carried Ye Chen and flew. Although it did not have the speed of the Kun Peng, as a Divine Beast, it was naturally unhappy. When it reached its destination, more than two hours had passed.

“Master, this is it.”

Ye Chen nodded slightly and surveyed his surroundings. There were dangerous peaks all around. They were steep and bare. There were no trees above the mountainside.

Ye Chen’s first reaction was that this place was not ordinary. This did not seem like the work of nature.

Ye Chen did not hesitate and stared at it. After a few seconds, golden information appeared on his retina.

[The Realm of Gates, the place where the ancient Giant Demon God passed away.]

[Description: After the Ancient Giant Demon God naturally died, its body no longer had any energy. Its body could not be suppressed and it revealed its true body here. Its body merged with the mountain and the barbs on its back turned into mountain peaks that pierced into the sky. The door was also corroded and assimilated by the Ancient Giant Demon God and did not appear in the world.]

Hiss!

Ye Chen sucked in a breath of cold air. It was fine if he did not see it but when he saw it, he was really shocked. These mountains were actually just the Backstab of an Ancient Demon God? What kind of existence was that?

One had to know that there were not just one or two mountains in the surroundings. Ye Chen looked over and felt that he could not see the end. How big was this ancient giant Demon God? It was simply unimaginable!

And that so-called gate land, what did this mean?

According to the words, could it be considered a door? Did that door lead to the true wilderness or to the Unknown Lands?

“Sun God Envoy, bring me to that Mystic Realm!” Thinking of this, Ye Chen’s thirst for knowledge became even stronger.

The Immortal Phoenix nodded. After confirming the direction, it flew over with him. Ye Chen looked at the Immortal Phoenix’s flight path and imagined the body of the ancient giant Demon God in his mind.

The more Ye Chen looked at it, the more he felt that something was amiss. If he were to thin out the body of the Giant Demon God and the Immortal Phoenix’s flight trajectory, was this the location where its head was?

The Immortal Phoenix continued to fly. The steep mountain peaks around it became taller and steeper, corresponding to the order of the Backstab. The higher it went to the neck, the higher the backstab. Ye Chen was even more shocked.

“Stop!” Seeing that they were about to reach the end of the mountain peak, Ye Chen hurriedly stopped. He did not want to inexplicably enter some forbidden land.

“Master, what’s wrong?” the Divine Phoenix asked in confusion.

Ye Chen did not reply because all of this was too unreal. It simply refreshed his worldview. He focused his attention on the location of the Ancient Giant Demon God’s head and golden words appeared on his retina.

[5 kilometers ahead, there is a Mystic Realm. There is no danger. There might be a hidden surprise.]

Suppressing his shock, Ye Chen pointed ahead and asked, “Is the Mystic Realm you’re talking about in that direction?”

“Eh, Master, how do you know? Have you been here before?” the Immortal Phoenix asked curiously. It did not know about the others. It had been with Ye Chen since he came to this world. It had only been a while since he left. He did not have any flying beasts, so it was impossible for him to have been here.

What was more shocking than the Divine Phoenix was that Ye Chen was indeed at that position!

He ignored the Divine Phoenix. His heart was beating uncontrollably now. How could he care about the pleasant surprise that Goldfinger was telling him?

He would definitely be shocked but he did not know if he could withstand the joy.

However, since he was already here, Ye Chen had no reason to retreat. As long as the golden finger did not say that it was dangerous, he would dare to take the risk.

“It’s fine, let’s go. I’ve only heard of this place in the ears of others.”

“Alright, Master.” The Divine Phoenix nodded and continued to fly.

The Immortal Phoenix arrived at a distance of 5 kilometers in less than a minute. Ye Chen did not give any instructions on the way. The Immortal Phoenix flew straight into a cave and arrived at the entrance of the Mystic Realm in the blink of an eye.

“Let’s go in.” Ye Chen took a deep breath and entered the Mystic Realm with the Divine Phoenix.

It was different from the place where he had collected Little Purple and the Titan Ape. That place was made up of genuine ancient buildings. It was suspected to be the mind of the Ancient Giant Demon God.

Ye Chen originally thought that according to the calculation of the Ancient Giant Demon God’s body, his mind would be very big. He did not expect that it would not be as big as the Mystic Realm he went to previously. He roughly estimated that it was about 100 square meters.

“This is it, Master.” The Immortal Phoenix shrunk its body and circled around, indicating that there was no danger.

However, Ye Chen knew where he was. He did not say anything and focused on sizing up this space. After a while, golden words appeared.

[Level 1 Mystic Realm, no valuable items. Try attacking the ground.. There will be a surprise.]
