Upon reaching the light, they finally saw that the source of the glow was a Treasure Pearl, which seemed quite valuable.

However, Yang Yan and Red Dust were not delighted; instead, they frowned deeply.

Because the Treasure Pearl was held in the hand of a dead person.

Judging by the bloodstains on his body, he hadn't been dead for long.

Most likely, he was the guy who came in when the vortex appeared.

Roar!

Suddenly, a roar came from ahead, and it was unclear what creature made it.

The two quickly exchanged a glance, then took immediate action.

Yang Yan grabbed Star Night and started walking slowly forward.

Red Dust followed closely behind, looking even more vigilant.

The path ahead became increasingly brighter, and once they stepped out, a massive plaza unfolded before them.

The place they were just in seemed to be a corridor, or perhaps a cave.

Around the plaza, there were many people, including the Lion King who had once fought with Yang Yan.

His right arm hung limp, seemingly broken.

His golden hair looked as though it had been scorched by fire, making him appear extremely disheveled.

However, this was not what shocked Yang Yan.

What truly astonished Yang Yan was the center of the plaza; eight pillars stood tall.

In the middle of the pillars, an iron chain thicker than a human was tying down a monster.

The monster looked like a giant turtle, but astonishingly, its tail was a massive python.

At this moment, it was roaring angrily, and around it, many Exotic Realm hidden world individuals were attacking it frantically.

Yang Yan and Red Dust looked at the monster in front of them and exclaimed in unison:

"Black Tortoise!"

Black Tortoise...

Why was there a Black Tortoise here?

Moreover, it seemed to be trapped within those stone pillars.

What was going on with the people attacking it around the perimeter?

Yang Yan looked at the scene in front of him and slowly walked towards the Lion King.

"What's the situation here, why is there a Black Tortoise here?"

Yang Yan approached the Lion King and asked softly.

"Moonlight, what are you doing here?"

The Lion King trembled when he saw Yang Yan, asking in surprise.

"Jianghai called me and said you guys were in trouble, that the hidden world was invading, so I came over. What's really going on here? Why are you injured like this?"

Yang Yan glanced at the Lion King, then at the broken gun blade on the ground, and asked.

In the plaza, those Exotic Realm hidden world people were still relentlessly attacking the Black Tortoise, but their attacks only seemed to make the Black Tortoise angrier without having any other effect.

"When we first got the news, we were told that there might be a Secret Realm here, possibly containing something related to immortality, so many Exotic Realm hidden world people gathered here. Then we came over."

The Lion King said with a bitter smile.

"Then why are those guys outside not coming in and instead running to East Sea City to find a key to enter? Moreover, when we came over, the outside was indeed sealed."

Yang Yan asked, puzzled.

"No way? When we arrived, everyone came in!"

The Lion King widened his eyes in confusion and said.

After listening to the Lion King, Yang Yan and Wuchen exchanged another glance.

The Lion King must be telling the truth.

Or maybe this place closed on its own for some reason.

Or perhaps someone deliberately sealed the entrance.

If it's the former, that's alright, but if it's the latter, the opponent is playing a much bigger game.

I wonder if the Black Tortoise here is their work.

If you add in the Nine Treasures, then that's the White Tiger and Black Tortoise.

Wait a minute!

Yang Yan suddenly wondered if the dragon beneath East Sea City counts as the Cyan Dragon?

If it does, then there's the Cyan Dragon, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise.

Thinking of this, Yang Yan shivered suddenly.

He turned to the Lion King and asked very seriously:

"What kind of dragon is the one beneath East Sea City?"

Yang Yan's sudden question left the Lion King a little stunned.

"A Cyan Dragon, I suppose... I'm not really sure. After all, I've never seen it with my own eyes. But I think I heard the Sword Immortal elder say there's a Cyan Dragon beneath East Sea City."

"Then it must be the Four Symbols Killing Array!"

Yang Yan said lightly.

The Lion King didn't know what the Four Symbols Killing Array that Yang Yan mentioned was, but Red Dust did.

Moreover, when he heard the words Four Symbols Killing Array, his eyes widened.

"King, what are you saying! Four Symbols Killing Array? There's such a thing in East Sea City? And this one in front of us is just a Black Tortoise!"

"It's nothing, maybe I'm overthinking it. I need to go back and verify some things. If it's true, then Huaxia will truly be lively."

After saying that, Yang Yan coldly looked at the Exotic Realm hidden world people who were still attacking the Black Tortoise.

"You all back up a bit, I need to open a limitation once."

Yang Yan said to Red Dust.

Hearing Yang Yan's words, Red Dust was shocked as he looked at him.

Others might not know what Yang Yan meant by opening the limitation, but Red Dust knew very well.

Because Yang Yan's strength was so immense that even without actively attacking, it would affect the present world, he had to seal his power.

And now, he actually said he was going to open a limitation once, how could Red Dust not be shocked.

"King, what are you going to do? Let me handle it! If you open the limitation, it's no joke. Then, those old guys will sense where you are and it will be very troublesome."

Red Dust said with a frown.

"It's alright. Do you really think they don't know I've returned to Huaxia? It's just that they don't dare to provoke me. By pretending not to know, it gives both sides a way out."

Yang Yan said with a cold smile.

"But if you open the limitation, then they can't pretend not to see it!"

Red Dust still didn't want Yang Yan to open the limitation and could not help but advise one more time.

Because he knew that once Yang Yan opened the limitation, the impact would be too great.

To put it seriously, once Yang Yan's true power erupted, this world would undergo unpredictable changes.

"It's okay! There's something I need to confirm first. I'm too weak in this current state."

After saying this, Yang Yan took off his outer garment and threw it to the ground, then removed the necklace around his neck and handed it to Red Dust.

Red Dust took the necklace with both hands and looked at Yang Yan with a bitter smile.

Now that the necklace was removed, it was too late to say anything.

However, fortunately, he only removed the layer of seal from the necklace and didn't fully unseal it.

Otherwise, Red Dust would have to get far away immediately, or else he would be affected by Yang Yan's aura, which would be quite unpleasant.

As Yang Yan took off the necklace, the ground around him began to tremble violently.

Subsequently, the rubble on the ground started to float upward, as if the earth's gravity had suddenly vanished.

Those who were still attacking the Black Tortoise felt the commotion from this side and couldn't help but be startled, unconsciously shifting their gaze over.

Previously, since the Lion King's hand was broken during the battle, they hadn't paid much attention here, thinking he had lost the eligibility to compete with them.

But now, this commotion attracted everyone's attention.
