"Are we going directly to the secret realm?"
Chen Mo asked.
"Yes, follow me!"
Yun Shu nodded, then took Chen Mo into a black car.
The black car sped all the way, heading towards the outskirts of Nanling City.
The entrance to the secret realm is usually in the suburbs, and even if it’s not, that area will soon become the suburbs.
Soon, the black car arrived in front of a hill, driving up along a winding mountain road.
When they passed an intersection, Yun Shu sharply turned the steering wheel. The next second, the car didn’t continue down the road but drove straight toward a cliff ahead.
"Tweet!"
Just as Chen Mo thought he had boarded a "black car," he felt as if he had passed through a layer of transparent light membrane, and the scene in front of him changed dramatically.
A straight road inexplicably appeared beneath his feet, surrounded by a dozen fortress-like structures, each equipped with several heavy machine guns.
"Welcome to the Thunder Cliff Secret Realm! How do you feel? Exciting, right?"
Yun Shu said with a smile.
"A bit."
Chen Mo nodded, quickly coming to his senses.
The cliff he saw before was just an illusion; the entrance to the secret realm and the surrounding area were all within the range of mid-tier light system optical stealth techniques.
This way, even if people passed by, they wouldn’t notice these hidden steel fortresses.
Chen Mo looked around and saw that the metal surfaces of these steel fortresses were all marked with the logo of the Hongmeng Company.
"Are all the people here ours?"
Chen Mo couldn’t help but ask.
"That’s right! This is a secret realm completely controlled by our company."
Yun Shu nodded.
A private secret realm?
Chen Mo felt he had underestimated the strength of the world’s large corporations, being able to completely control an entrance to the Spirit Realm!
"Currently, Dongxia has a total of 48 secret realm entrances. The Spirit Control Bureau doesn’t have enough personnel or resources to manage so many secret realms, so in most cases, they jointly develop the Spirit Realm with several companies. Or, they directly entrust development to large corporations, and naturally, our Hongmeng Group has independently controlled secret realms, as long as we pay taxes on time."
"Howl!"
At this time, Chen Mo heard two beastly roars, like those of wolves and tigers.
He looked in the direction of the roars and saw two spiritual beasts with eagle heads and lion bodies at the entrance of the secret realm, standing about 2 meters tall, with wings on their backs, covered in deep purple feathers.
Chen Mo used his wristband to scan the basic information of one of them.
[Spiritual Beast Name: Thunder Griffin]
[Growth Level: Transcendent 3-tier]
[Race Level: Commander 1st Rank]
[Description: An Electric Type Spiritual Beast, often seen on the Electric Plains of the West Continent. Wild Thunder Griffins have a strong territorial sense and will stop at nothing to kill intruders. Contracted Thunder Griffins tend to be docile and clingy, enjoying sleeping beside their Spirit Masters.]
"These are Thunder Griffins specifically bred by our company, used to transport employees in and out of the Thunder Cliff Secret Realm."
Yun Shu explained.
"Indeed, a big company is wealthy."
Chen Mo was a bit moved. Such spiritual beasts, which could cost millions, were merely used as "transportation" within the Hongmeng Company.
He then equipped the [Social Outlaw] entry on himself, confidently walked up to one of the Thunder Griffins, and spoke using his beast language ability:
"Hello! Can I sit on your back?"
But unexpectedly, the Thunder Griffin didn’t bother, holding its head high, not even glancing at Chen Mo.
"Quite temperamental, huh."
Seeing this, Yun Shu couldn’t help but laugh and said:
"You have to buy a piece of cooked spiritual meat from the butcher shop nearby and feed it to them. They’ll take you into the secret realm. The roast meat is considered the ticket to the Spirit Realm."
Of course, if a Spirit Master has their own flying spiritual beast, they can go directly into the secret realm after passing the security check.
Chen Mo glanced around, and sure enough, saw a "Roast Meat Shop" sign on one of the "fortress" buildings. He spent 2000 yuan on a super-sized roast steak.
"Woo——" (Chen Mo, I want some!)
"Tweet!" (Me too!)
Inside the Ocean Pearl, Xinghai perked up at the sight of food.
Since coming to the human world, it set itself a small goal: to taste all the earthly delicacies.
In short, wherever it goes, it eats.
So Chen Mo bought two more pieces for his spiritual beasts. The Isolated Island Spirit swallowed them in one go, barely tasting the flavor.
"Woo..." (If only I could be smaller...)
Xinghai once again lamented over its size.
When Chen Mo was feeding steak to the griffin, he noticed Yun Shu beside him directly taking a piece of roast from the shop without paying.
Chen Mo: "???"
"Employees above P5 or F5 level don’t need to pay the ticket fee when entering the secret realm."
Yun Shu smiled, seemingly understanding Chen Mo’s confusion.
Hongmeng Company’s employee levels correspond to different benefits.
"Howl!"
After feeding the Thunder Griffin meat, it became incredibly docile; even when Chen Mo stroked the fur on its head, it didn’t get annoyed, crouching down to let Chen Mo sit on top.
"Tweet!"
As the griffin was about to take off, the heights-fearing Blazing Flame Fox tried to sneak back into the Spiritual Space but was caught by Chen Mo and placed in his arms.
"Experience it a few more times, and you’ll get used to it."
"Howl!"
After a loud cry, the griffin suddenly flapped its wings, taking off vertically.
"Tweet!"
Xiao Jiu nestled in Chen Mo’s arms, only peeking out between its paws after a while to see the situation outside.
As with the last elevator ride, there was a deep, dark pit, like an abyss.
In less than half a minute, the Thunder Griffin began to pass through the portal connecting two worlds.
Once through the passage, what met Chen Mo’s eyes were lead-gray clouds and interlacing purple lightning.
The Spirit Realm’s exit was actually high up in the sky!
Looking at the nearby thunder and lightning, Chen Mo felt as if he were in a sea of lightning.
The Thunder Griffin started to dive quickly; this altitude of lightning meant nothing to it, but if struck, Chen Mo certainly wouldn’t be able to handle it.
Passing through the clouds, Chen Mo saw an endless range of mountains, viewing from above, vaguely resembling a winding dragon shape.
Chen Mo recalled the legends about Thunder Cliff he had read before.
It’s said that during the Ancient Era, a revered Thunder Dragon fought its enemies here, eventually perishing with them, forming the ten thousand peaks of Thunder Cliff. Every peak here is rumored to have transformed from dragon scales, and the Thunder Dragon’s spirit turned into lightning, eternally roaring across this sky.
Seeing the current scenery, Chen Mo suspected the legend might be true.
After all, legends about the Spirit Realm always have some basis.
"Tweet!"
The Blazing Flame Fox seemed excited.
Upon entering the Thunder Cliff Secret Realm, Xiao Jiu felt invigorated, every cell in its body brimming with enthusiasm.
The Electric Spiritual Power here was even denser than at the Thunder Training Field of the Thunderbolt Daoist School!
No wonder Spirit Masters bring their spiritual beasts here for further training once they reach the transcendent level.
The growth is incredibly rapid.
The fur on the back of the Thunder Griffin was long and soft, making for a very comfortable ride, albeit a rather short one.
In less than two minutes, the Thunder Griffin landed midway up a mountain, where three buildings with a strikingly futuristic design stood, strikingly out of place with the surrounding scenery.
"We’ve arrived."
