In the Secret Realm, there was no concept of time, and even distinguishing between day and night was difficult. Different regions within possessed different weather conditions; in some areas, five or six suns could appear during the day. The Demonic Creatures born in such places could not be evaluated by common standards. Once scattered across these regions, the difficulty of survival greatly increased. Some people were even forced to teleport out of the Secret Realm without having gone very far. The Players were also aware of this, and they chose to group together from the very start. At this moment, the best choice was to group together in the region where King of Spraying King Pen Duanchang was located—that was the most critical. However, King of Spraying King Pen Duanchang was currently using a Communication Ring to start confronting other Players. As for people like Old Mo who were inside the Secret Realm, he had already forgotten about them.

「Inside the Jade Flower Immortal Sect.」

All the senior experts were unable to ascertain the situation inside the Secret Realm. However, with the Communication Rings produced by the Great Dream Immortal Sect and the Jade Flower Immortal Sect, they managed to learn some news. What shocked and surprised them even more was the artifact itself. What kind of Spiritual Artifact is this, capable of making contact with the inside of the Secret Realm?

Meng Fenggu, full of high spirits, held a Communication Ring and proudly said, "Luo Yuan, protect your junior brothers and sisters well. First, find the disciples from the Profound Yellow Sect. It seems they are quite safe over there."

At this moment, he was standing with Xu Nian, looking at King of Spraying King Pen Duanchang on the screen in front of Xu Nian, and he couldn't help but feel envious. His own disciples were yelling and fighting, while Xu Nian's disciple had already secured a region and even taken a rest. How could he not be envious? The disparity was instantly clear, wasn't it?

Upon hearing his words, the White Jade Fairy immediately contacted her disciples from the Jade Flower Immortal Sect, instructing them to quickly find the Profound Yellow Sect disciples. As long as they cooperated with this unpleasant-speaking disciple, their own disciples would definitely be able to safely enter the Top 100 ranks.

The Demon Emperor also curiously looked over and asked softly, "Is this a new Spiritual Artifact crafted by your Human Race?"

"That's right, but it wasn't crafted by someone from the Central Domain. They don't have the capability yet," Meng Fenggu said proudly.

His words infuriated many Cultivators in the Central Domain, especially those skilled in Refining. They looked as if they wanted to strangle Meng Fenggu. What did he mean by that? What did he mean, 'it wasn't crafted by someone from the Central Domain'? Was he implying that we, the people of the Central Domain, weren't part of the Human Race?

"Father Emperor, this is a Communication Ring crafted by the Profound Yellow Sect, and I also have one!" Lucifer-Glaze raised her hand and boasted, "Look, Father Emperor, this Ring was given to me by Dung Beetle. He said this Ring is very powerful and asked me to contact them when I had the chance, but you all have been fighting, so I haven't had the chance to contact him."

Upon hearing this, the Demon Emperor's expression subtly changed. For some reason, hearing the name Dung Beetle now made him involuntarily want to strike. Still, the boy had some conscience, knowing enough to give such a fine item to his daughter.

Her words also surprised many onlookers from different races. This was crafted by the Profound Yellow Sect? Doesn't every member of the Human Race have one?

The Nine-Tailed Fox Race Leader hesitated for a long time, twisting her enchanting figure, her nine tails swaying slowly behind her, and her charming eyes fell on Xu Nian. Then, she stepped forward and asked softly, "Sect Leader Xu, I wonder if your Communication Rings are available for sale to our Demon Race?"

Her words immediately caught the attention of the other races. They had realized the miraculous nature of this Communication Ring; it was a game-changing advantage. They had their own means of communication, but almost none worked within the Secret Realm, especially with no contact with the outside. They were unclear whether their disciples were safe. But a Communication Ring crafted by the Profound Yellow Sect? It could actually do this! And it seemed the Communication Ring wasn't just for communicating...

"This item was crafted by my disciples. If you all are interested, you can inquire about the details from them," Xu Nian said indifferently.

As soon as his words fell, Meng Fenggu spoke up immediately, "Our Great Dream Immortal Sect has already reached an agreement with the Disciples of the Profound Yellow Sect. The Communication Rings they crafted are sold by us. If you all wish to purchase, it's simple—fifteen Spirit Crystals each!"

Fifteen Spirit Crystals for a Communication Ring? Is this a robbery? Among those present, some races might not care about these Spirit Crystals, but some couldn't even afford a single one.

Hearing his words, the White Jade Fairy couldn't help but frown. She got her supply directly from the Profound Yellow Sect, and the price was ten Spirit Crystals each. Who could have imagined Meng Fenggu would be so ruthless, raising the price to fifteen Spirit Crystals each like that?

"The Central Domain's Communication Ring sales are managed by our Jade Flower Immortal Sect. Those who want one can find me," the White Jade Fairy said, showing off her own Communication Ring.

What a sight! How did every single one of them have one? Not only Meng Fenggu and the White Jade Fairy, but even the Elders of the Great Dream Immortal Sect, the Elders of the Jade Flower Immortal Sect, and the Cultivators from other Sect influences of the Southern Continent—almost all had a Communication Ring in hand. Now, one by one, they were ostentatiously bragging about it.

"Sect Leader Meng, does your Sect have any surplus? Our Demon Race requires some."

"We of the Sea Race also want these Communication Rings. You all should know that the Sea Race has vast territories and many Secret Realms, so we hope Sect Leader Meng can spare more."

"Our Fire Spirit Race will take some too, at the price of fifteen Spirit Crystals each!"

"The Cultivators from the Central Domain should find the White Jade Fairy for purchases, right? I'm wondering how many such Communication Rings the White Jade Fairy has left?"

At that moment, various races and Human Race Cultivators all began placing orders.

The aged face of Meng Fenggu blossomed into a smile. He knew the price they paid the Profound Yellow Sect wasn't this high; reselling them for fifteen Spirit Crystals each was simply a massive windfall! Indeed, following the Profound Yellow Sect meant feasting well every day!

Xu Nian did not pay them any heed; instead, he focused on his Communication Ring and started contacting King of Spraying King Pen Duanchang.

"Xu Nian: Keep an eye on your surroundings. Dung Beetle should not be far from you; he's run into some trouble. Help him out, will you?"

Just as King of Spraying King Pen Duanchang was about to take a midday nap, he immediately sat up upon receiving the message.

"Brother Xu, rest easy, man! I'll definitely take good care of that damn Dung Beetle!"

After thumping his chest to reassure, King of Spraying King Pen Duanchang stood up from the water lily pad and ran toward the edge where the Nut Wall was. With the aid of underground Vine Whips, he directly climbed atop the Nut Wall and gazed into the distance from his high vantage point.

To be honest, he didn't want to bother with Dung Beetle. That guy was so damn annoying. But since Brother Xu had spoken, he had no choice but to comply. Moreover, if they embarrassed the Profound Yellow Sect in the Secret Realm, Xu Nian would definitely settle accounts with them when they returned. They were a team of ten; it was better to look out for one another for now.

On Dung Beetle's end, he was also running a Live Stream, frantically running with his Communication Ring held high as a swarm of Centipedes gave hot pursuit. Along the way, he had encountered some races participating in the trial, but sadly, they had been devoured by the Centipedes. Not a trace was left. It gave Dung Beetle the creeps.

Thank goodness he knew Wind Magic; he had run like mad to get here, barely keeping his life.

"Boss, run towards the Wasteland on the right! Sprayer is waiting for you on the Wasteland!"

"Dung Beetle, hurry up and run towards the Wasteland! Stop running forward! King Pen Duanchang has already secured that area."

"This son of a gun sucks at everything, but he's number one at escaping. How is he not dead yet?"

"Just came from Sprayer's Live Stream to see Dung Beetle fleeing for his life. Curious how he runs so fast?"

Glancing at the barrage of comments in the Live Stream, Dung Beetle was somewhat surprised. King of Spraying King Pen Duanchang was in the Wilderness, and he'd conquered a territory too? Fuck! Why didn't you say so earlier? This damn Grassland forbids flying; I could only run all the way here. Who knows how long I've been at it?

With that, he changed direction and immediately rushed towards the Wasteland, his speed reaching an extreme. The Centipede Swarm behind him chased even more fiercely.

On the Wilderness above, King of Spraying King Pen Duanchang was yawning with boredom when he saw a surge of dark green waves appearing on the horizon.

"Holy shit, what's that?" King of Spraying King Pen Duanchang immediately stood up, staring in horror in that direction. What the hell, waves on the Wasteland? And dark green at that?

People in the Live Stream quickly explained it to him. Knowing it was Dung Beetle being chased and the dark green mass was his pursuer, his face instantly soured. What the hell? You're already running for your life, and you led the enemy here too?

"At three o'clock, get ready for battle! Disperse that dark green wave!" King of Spraying King Pen Duanchang immediately gave the order, "Cabbage Throwers, Corn Throwers, Watermelon Throwers, and also Ice Watermelons, Ice Peashooters, shoot fiercely! Machine Gun Shooters, don't slack off! Hit them with everything we've got! What Demonic Creature, so-called elites? I'm fighting elites today! Keep them right outside the Wilderness! Don't let them approach our turf! Vine Whip, get ready to launch Yin Peach Bombs, Potato Bombs, and Fiery Chili Peppers! Blow up this horde of elite Demonic Creatures!"

As his commands were issued, the plants on the barren land also sprang into action, aiming their Spiritual Artifact attacks towards the three o'clock direction. The Corn Cannons took the central position, their hefty corn projectiles flying out slowly, carrying a destructive aura. A myriad of corn, cabbages, watermelons, and Ice Watermelons rained down on the Centipede Swarm. Countless Peas shot out in quick succession.

In an instant, the quiet Wilderness turned into a picturesque battlefield! This is what you call war? This is it!

The desperately fleeing Dung Beetle saw the rain of objects from the sky and panicked, hugging his head and sprinting forward. Suddenly, a large cherry with a comical face landed beside him, then began to swell before his bewildered gaze.

Wait a sec! That smile looks familiar... Sprayer's plants? If this were Plants vs. Zombies, wouldn't that cherry be equivalent to...

BOOM—

The massive impact sent Dung Beetle flying, tumbling several times across the Wilderness before crashing into a rock and coming to a stop.

"Holy shit, holy shit, holy shit!" Dung Beetle exclaimed, staring dumbstruck at the scene behind him. "A Cherry Bomb exploded beside me! Who the hell is the real enemy here?"
