Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 1667: Chapter 1669: Opening

The number of people in the square was fixed, indicating that the number of enemies here was also fixed.

Everyone, besides staring at the position of the secret realm entrance, was also looking around, trying to find allies they could use and prioritize their enemies!

At this moment, a loud voice rang out.

”The Qin Feng Secret Realm is about to open, I’m announcing some rules!” A middle-aged man who appeared to be in his thirties or forties stood between the two pillars and said calmly.

His voice wasn’t very loud, but it reached everyone’s ears.

This made everyone tense.

”Once you enter, the secret realm will close and won’t open again until half a month later,” the middle-aged man continued.

”After it opens in half a month, the first ten who come out are the ones who have passed this selection and can continue participating in the second round to decide the real entrants into the core!”

”However, besides this path, there’s another way that offers additional slots to enter the core.”

”That is to explore and find items inside. As long as you find them and bring them back, each item has its own score. If you reach a certain score, you will receive corresponding rewards, including slots to enter the core within those rewards.”

”Now we’ll distribute manuals to you, recording the items that can be exchanged for scores and the rewards for different scores.”

The middle-aged man didn’t care whether people listened, he just spoke on his own.

As he spoke, someone began distributing manuals to the crowd.

The distribution wasn’t done one by one, but rather a stack was thrown out to roughly match the number of people, letting them take it themselves.

No conflicts arose.

It wasn’t any special treasure, everyone just took one.

Even if someone didn’t get one, it wasn’t a big deal. People here seldom kept things that occupied space, usually they’d memorize it and discard it.

After all, the memory capabilities of those at the Golden Core Stage made it extremely easy to remember such information!

Lu Xiaobu took a copy and quickly scanned it, memorizing everything.

However, he noticed the manuals did not include a task about the World Tree Seed.

It seems they didn’t want more people, especially those from smaller worlds, to know about the seed.

Additionally, they definitely had other methods to detect if the seed was taken out of the secret realm!

The middle-aged man continued to perfunctorily give reminders: ”Let me remind you, in half a month, the secret realm entrance will reopen for only one day, don’t be late!”

”On that day, if you don’t want to stay in the secret realm and wait for death, then come out!”

”That’s it! The secret realm is ready to open!”

With his command, eight Nascent Soul Stage individuals approached the two pillars, prepared to open the secret realm.

Soon, the space between the two pillars started to ripple like water.

The ripples were small at first, then gradually grew larger.

Larger and larger.

Eventually, the ripples stopped being ripples and formed a vortex.

Finally, the vortex occupied all the space between the two pillars.

And within the vortex, another world faintly appeared.

Though unclear, a first impression was established!

First impression — red! Blood-red!

The blood-red color reflected on everyone’s faces, making each person look as horrifying as a demon!

If an ordinary person took a glance, they’d likely be scared to death on the spot, thinking they had arrived in Hell.

A nearby fellow suddenly flew up and rushed towards the vortex!

He wanted to seize the first opportunity!

The middle-aged man speaking earlier didn’t stop him but instead showed a mocking smile on his face — every year, there were fools like him!

Others who wanted to follow suit saw the expression on the middle-aged man’s face and instantly stopped in their tracks!

Something bad was about to happen!

Indeed, the guy in the early Golden Core Stage, upon touching the vortex, seemed to fall into a meat grinder.

In the blink of an eye, half of his body was gone — turned into finely ground bloody flesh!

Everyone’s hearts skipped a beat, the previous fervent expressions were like being awakened with a jolt!

This hasn’t even begun, yet someone has already died!

They looked at the middle-aged man, seeking an explanation.

But obviously, no one paid them any mind.

At this time, the vortex began to calm down, the ripples getting smaller and smaller.

Finally, the ripples completely disappeared.

At this point, it was as if an extremely transparent glass appeared between the two pillars, revealing a blood-red forest inside!

Some strange-looking beasts with red eyes were roaring towards this side.

”Roar!”

A tiger-like beast with entirely blood-colored stripes ferociously charged over from the opposite side.

Its gaping, bloody mouth was as big as a washbasin, making it seem as if everyone could smell the stench from within!

”Bang!”

The tiger’s blood-scented head just emerged and was immediately smashed by a single palm from the nearby middle-aged man!

The skilled manner suggested this wasn’t his first time doing something like this!

As the headless corpse of the tiger fell back onto the Blood Continent, many beasts that wanted to rush over stopped in their tracks!

They weren’t frightened; instead, they swarmed over to start devouring the tiger carcass!

Among them, fights broke out constantly, completely ignoring the events on this side!

Lu Xiaobu even saw a rabbit-like animal eating meat!

With blood-red eyes and sharp teeth, a Rabbit Kicking Eagle actually stomped to death a dog-like creature trying to eat meat!

Indeed, common sense couldn’t be applied here!

”Alright, you can enter now!” The middle-aged man wiped his hands and said calmly: ”Remember, half a month, one day, top ten!”

He then instructed the eight Nascent Souls who started the secret realm: ”Keep it open for half an hour, don’t be late!”

After speaking, the middle-aged man turned and left!

The crowd below looked at the blood-red forest opposite and swallowed hard.

After a few seconds, those who weren’t here for the first time or had heard from experienced others, rushed forward first!

Safely arrived!

They immediately charged into the forest upon landing!

Seeing this, the remaining people gradually got red-eyed again and rushed towards the opposite!

Strike first to gain the upper hand!

The earlier you arrive, the more composed you can be, whether to leave quickly or lay ambush, you have options!

In an instant, more than half of the people here were gone, and the rest were charging ahead!

While not yet past the secret realm entrance, people were still relatively restrained!

However, everyone knew this was only for now. The Blood Continent was bound to increase the blood of this new batch of people in the next moment!

And definitely in considerable quantities!
