Chapter 1 The Beginning

　　Arriving in front of the treasure chest, Lin En directly opened the Mist Treasure Chest.

　　[System: Mist Orbs *10]

　　[System: Mist Mineral Vein *1]

　　[System: Mist Random Tree Seeds *10]

　　Mineral vein? Lin En curiously checked it out.

　　Name: Mist Mineral Vein

　　Category: Special Building

　　Effect: After use, it can form a Mist Mineral Vein at a designated location.

　　{Mist Ore, a unique ore in the Mist Forest. Weapons and armor made with Mist can evade magical detection.}

　　Seems pretty good. I wonder if it can evade Divine Sense detection? Lin En was quite curious. When he gets back, he'll have someone mine it and make it into equipment to see. If it works, he'll be rich.

　　Putting away the items, Lin En started walking towards the next treasure chest and soon arrived near it.

　　Seeing the ferocious beast guarding the treasure chest, Lin En was about to make a move, but the beast seemed to sense the danger and instantly ran away from the treasure chest, disappearing into the forest.

　　Watching the departing ferocious beast, Lin En looked around with suspicion, and then walked towards the treasure chest.

　　[System: Mist Orbs *10]

　　[System: Mist Mirror Fish *10]

　　Only these items? Lin En checked with curiosity.

　　Name: Mist Mirror Fish

　　Category: Rare Treasure

　　Effect: Produces Mirror Scales

　　{Mirror Fish, a rare creature unique to the Mist Forest. Each Mirror Fish has a Mirror Scale, and 100 Mirror Scales can mirror-image an item. It is said that someone collected 1000 Mirror Scales and successfully mirror-imaged a divine artifact.}

　　Looks very powerful, but the quantity is a bit small. After going back, I'll find a place to raise them and see if they can breed.

　　The harvest was okay. Lin En wandered around the Mist Forest again, collecting some of the unique flowers, plants, and trees, and then asked the stone walls.

　　Soon, Lin En obtained the cave he wanted most: a cave with a secret realm portal.

　　Lin En flew excitedly towards the east stone wall, afraid of being a step too late.

　　In a few seconds, Lin En was already standing under the east stone wall, took out a pickaxe, knocked it open, and rushed in.

　　Arriving at the cave, Lin En flew directly up and immediately saw the portal in the air. He flew down and plunged right in.

　　Arriving at the portal tunnel, Lin En slowed down and walked towards the exit.

　　Soon, Lin En exited the portal tunnel and arrived inside the secret realm.

　　As soon as he came out, Lin En discovered that there were many other people around. Looking at the people staring at him, Lin En walked expressionlessly to the side. Since the secret realm hasn't started after his arrival, that means there aren't enough people in this secret realm yet. Looks like it's another multi-player secret realm.

　　Without a system prompt, Lin En had to find a place to sit down and wait.

　　I wonder what type of secret realm it will be?

　　As time passed, the number of people exceeded a hundred, and many people's faces began to look ugly. After all, the more people there are, the more difficult it will be, and they might die in the secret realm if they're not careful.

　　Many people had already started looking for people to team up with, and slowly many teams formed.

　　Lin En once again turned down the teams that came to invite him, and then closed his eyes to rest, otherwise, more people would come and bother him.

　　Now, every newcomer is startled because as soon as they come in, many people will come to recruit them. Now, the largest team has twenty people, the smallest has five or six, and there are a dozen lone wolves like Lin En.

　　Finally, when the number of people reached two hundred, the secret realm prompt appeared.

　　The secret realm prompt subtitles began to appear where the teleportation exit was.

　　Everyone immediately looked over.

　　[System: Congratulations on arriving at the large special secret realm, Ancient Forest – Survival Focused.]

　　[System: You will be teleported to a forest in the ancient era, where you must survive for a month.]

　　[System: 1. In the ancient forest, a random number of special treasure chests will appear every day, which can help you survive better.]

　　[System: 2. There are many ancient creatures in the ancient forest, which are incredibly powerful, with a minimum strength of ninth-order.]

　　[System: 3. Ancient inheritances exist in the ancient forest.]

　　[System: 4. Divine inheritances may exist in the ancient forest.]

　　[System: 5. There are fifty special items in the ancient forest. Only those who obtain the special items can clear the secret realm.]

　　[System: Teleportation will begin now. Please be prepared.]

　　…

　　Lin En subconsciously touched the back of his head. Why did it feel like he was hit? But it doesn't hurt. It's really strange.

　　Looking around, Lin En discovered that he was now in a forest with trees hundreds of meters tall. It looks like he has arrived at the ancient forest.

　　Looking at the dense forest, Lin En felt that surviving here for a month might not be easy. I wonder what dangers there are.

　　Feeling the energy concentration here, holy crap, the energy concentration is so high that even middle-level gods could appear! Lin En thought to himself. Could the strongest of those ancient creatures be middle-level god-level?

　　Thinking of this possibility, Lin En felt that it was better to be careful. Although he was confident that he could escape from a middle-level god, it was still better not to encounter one.

　　Lin En looked around, and then randomly headed in a direction. After walking a few kilometers, Lin En finally saw the ancient creatures. Looking at the huge figures in the distance, Lin En was quite shocked.

　　Beep beep beep~!

　　Looking at the huge thunder dragons in front of him, Lin En was now certain that those ancient creatures should be dinosaurs.

　　In this group of thunder dragons, each one except for the little ones has ninth-order strength, and some even have demigod-level strength. But strangely, Lin En didn't sense any aura of laws from those demigod-level thunder dragons, which was a bit strange.

　　After carefully observing with Divine Sense again, Lin En had some speculation. It was possible that their bodies had reached the demigod level, so they had demigod-level strength. Maybe not even that, after all, he had only seen thunder dragons so far.

　　While sighing, Lin En suddenly discovered that there seemed to be a special treasure chest near the little thunder dragons in the group. After looking carefully, it really was a special treasure chest.

　　Since he saw a treasure chest, he definitely had to get his hands on it. Lin En adjusted his strength aura to around eighth-order, and then walked towards the thunder dragon group.

　　Sure enough, one of the thunder dragons glanced at Lin En, and didn't bother with him after realizing that he was just a small ant.

　　Seeing the thunder dragon group ignoring him, Lin En quickly passed under several thunder dragons and finally arrived in front of the special treasure chest.

　　Next, Lin En had to consider how to get that little thunder dragon to move its butt, because the treasure chest was being pressed down by its tail.
