Chapter 27 Difference (1)

Zhang Yuanqing was about to speak when the office door banged twice. The three of them turned toward the sound. Wang Tai was standing in the doorway with his computer.

“Can I come in and listen?”

He refused to speak after that, waiting for a response. Li Dongze pondered for a moment and nodded.

“Come in and help Yuanqing with the strategy report.”

Wang Tai heaved a sigh of relief. He wasn’t someone who liked to join in the fun. It was just that the S-Class She Ling Tunnel was a very good topic as an impossible Night Wanderer Trial Spirit Realm. He couldn’t resist the temptation of listening.

Zhang Yuanqing deliberated for a moment. After Wang Tai sat down, he recounted his experience in the Mountain Temple.

He omitted the function of the Demon Subduing Staff and only said that it was a tool that could restrain Yin creatures.

As for the red dancing shoes, he explained it equally vaguely. He said that he had been raised by his uncle since he was young and was proficient in singing and dancing. Moreover, his memory was astonishing, so he barely overcame the rules of the red dancing shoes.

Of course, he also hid the matter of the character card’s exclusive reward because it would expose that he had obtained the red dancing shoes.

Hiding part of the key information was the tip he’d gotten from Guan Ya.

Rule-type tools were extremely precious. The Five Elements Alliance might not force him to hand it over, but he had to be careful.

As for the recovery of Goddess Sandao, he planned to talk about it later alone and discuss it with them.

As he listened, Wang Tai typed away.

Li Dongze listened patiently, fumbling with the handle of his cane.

“The tool that counters Yin creatures should be a reward for clearing the level. Moreover, it must be a high-level tool.”

Guan Ya smiled and quickly added, “Brat, it’s an S-rank trial mission. How can you only get some experience points?”

She was subtly teaching Zhang Yuanqing not to go too far in lying.

Zhang Yuanqing’s smile did not change. “Oh, I forgot to mention the tools. That staff is indeed the reward for clearing the trial.”

He didn’t blush when lying.

Li Dongze paid no attention and continued.

“In that case, the difficulty level of the She Ling Tunnel will be reduced.”

“Why do you say that?” Zhang Yuanqing was puzzled.

Li Dongze explained patiently.

“We call the Spirit Realm a game dungeon, but it’s just a joke. In the Spirit Realm, tools are very rare. Every tool is unique and can’t be replicated.”

“Since you brought out that tool, the step that requires killing the tree spirit might disappear in the future. The difficulty of the She Ling Tunnel will naturally decrease.”

While Li Dongze drank, Guan Ya added.

“Let me tell you about the Spirit Realm dungeon. It is constantly adjusted. For example, if you conquer the Mountain Temple and take the tools from it, the difficulty of it will definitely decrease. Or if you die in the Spirit Realm and your tools are obtained by the monsters in the Spirit Realm, the difficulty of the Spirit Realm will increase. The red dancing shoes are the best example.”

“There’s another point. The missions accepted by people of different levels in the same Spirit Realm are different. I once went to a Spirit Realm in the wilderness and read the guide in advance. In the dungeon, that senior was a Hunter. The mission was to hunt nine criminals in the jungle. However, after I entered the Spirit Realm, I realized that I was only one of the nine criminals. The mission requirement was to survive for 36 hours. This was because my level was lower than that senior’s. Therefore, the guide could only be used as a reference to let us understand the dungeon and know some basic information and danger.”

“It won’t be lowered,” said Wang Tai. “The red dancing shoes are still there.”

Guan Ya and Li Dongze glanced at Zhang Yuanqing and remained silent.

Wang Tai did not notice and continued.

“It’s a little strange. The data, gains, and information you provided don’t match the S-rank difficulty. Are you holding something back?”

That’s too direct. You’re embarrassing everyone… Zhang Yuanqing cleared his throat.

“I’m not trying to hide anything. I was going to say that the tree spirit came out of the cave, along with a coffin.”

“The coffin? What’s in the coffin?” Li Dongze leaned forward and pressed in an urgent tone.

Wang Tai also stopped typing.

Guan Ya looked intrigued.

An S-rank Spirit Realm was usually accompanied by some important information. It might even be a shocking secret.

For official organizations, civilian organizations, and even evil organizations, half of their understanding of the Spirit Realm was through observation and summary of the rules. The other half was based on the information obtained in the Spirit Realm.

From there, they would slowly unlock the secrets of the Spirit Realm.

No Spirit Realm Walker could resist this temptation.

“In the coffin lay Goddess Sandao. After I opened the coffin, she-she woke up…” Zhang Yuanqing still felt a lingering fear when he thought about it now.

Li Dongze’s pupils constricted.

“She woke up?”

He rose abruptly, as if he could no longer sit still. He paced the office, leaning on his cane, frowning

After a while, Li Dongze said solemnly: “Perhaps we’re all wrong. According to the information related to that goddess, she must be a high-level Night Wanderer. Now that she’s awakened, there are only two possibilities.”

“First, the Mountain God Temple will undergo a tremendous change. It will no longer be a Night Wanderer Trial Spirit Realm, but a high-level Spirit Realm dungeon.

“Second, the Mountain Temple will still be downgraded, but with that goddess, a new high-level Spirit Realm dungeon will definitely appear. “For the higher-ups of the Supreme Solitary Sect, this information is extremely important as it concerns the change in the Spirit Realm of their own class.”
