Wang Tao led everyone to the second level once again.
Although he had cleared all the mutated plants here before, just to be safe, Wang Tao checked again.
After all, when he killed the mutated plants, he intentionally left the roots, hoping they would grow back.
After a thorough inspection, Wang Tao put his mind at ease but also felt a bit disappointed because the roots showed no change.
“Let’s get started.”
Shaking his head, Wang Tao dispersed the surrounding fog and, once again, joined the others in exploring the second level.
“I feel something is off about this rock—uh, you just smashed it open? There’s nothing inside… Alright, guess I was overthinking…”
“Do you guys feel like there might be some sort of mechanism here?”
“I don’t think so, have you been watching too much TV or something…”
“Eh? What’s going on here, why is this place all damp? That’s definitely not normal!”
“Uh, that’s because Lightning just peed…”
“…”
“Woof~”
…
Having more people didn’t necessarily mean greater strength, but it certainly made things livelier.
Without the threat of a Level 5 Lord, everyone relaxed a bit, searching for anomalies while chatting.
Unfortunately, after spending half the day thoroughly searching the entire second level, they still found nothing.
“Could this be some kind of ‘rule’ or mysterious force we’ve never encountered before?”
Xiang Hongbin let his imagination run wild.
“It’s hard to say…”
Wei Zhenguo shook his head, finding it unlikely. However, the lack of useful information made it difficult for him to argue.
“Could it be that there really isn’t anything special here…”
Wang Tao frowned.
“Actually, there are still three places we haven’t checked.”
At that moment, He Jijun suddenly spoke.
“Huh? Which places?”
The others looked at him with puzzled expressions.
“The ceiling, underground, and underwater,” He Jijun explained.
“Ah, this…”
The group opened their mouths in amazement. If you put it that way, those three areas indeed hadn’t been explored, but they weren’t exactly accessible either!
The ceiling was overhead, and it was high; they couldn’t reach it. Of course, with some effort, they could probably touch it, but to explore such a large ceiling area continuously was clearly impossible.
As for the underground, there was no need to even mention it. The ground may have looked like soil, but beneath it was an extremely hard type of stone. Even with Wang Tao’s strength, he could hardly dig through it…
Regarding the underwater… the second level had a lake. Previously, there was a treasure chest in the center of the lake, but the water in the lake was filled with deadly poison…
But then again, while the ceiling and the underground were difficult to explore, the lake seemed possible! After all, Wang Tao had a lot of Antidote Potions, and after He Jijun’s reminder, he did feel that there might be something off about the lake.
“Alright, I’ll go check underwater. If there’s really something there, it might be underneath…”
Wang Tao told the others.
“Be careful!”
Lan Yulian and the rest immediately advised.
They didn’t stop Wang Tao; after all, he had Fifth-Order Power and many Antidote Potions, making the poison practically ineffective against him.
The group waited on the shore as Wang Tao lightly jumped, entering the water with a fairly graceful posture.
Splash—
The water in the lake was a bit chilly. After Wang Tao acclimatized for a moment, he began to dive deeper.
He had already taken an Antidote Potion beforehand, so the poison in the lake had no effect on him. However, since the lake water was dark green, it blocked Wang Tao’s vision. Even with night vision, it was useless, so he had to rely on his spiritual power to explore little by little. This process was much slower than just using his eyes, but it was more precise. It was a case of slow and steady wins the race.
Wang Tao wasn’t sure how long he had been exploring; he just remembered coming up for air about a dozen times, his head feeling a bit groggy.
Although he wasn’t at risk of poisoning, staying in such a stressful environment was very uncomfortable, both mentally and physically.
However, at that moment, Wang Tao’s spirits lifted.
“What’s that?”
He immediately dived deeper, heading towards the center of the lake. A few seconds later, Wang Tao stepped onto the lakebed.
The lake was essentially circular, with the middle being a small piece of land where the treasure chest had previously been placed.
Observing underwater, the center looked like a cone, thicker at the bottom and tapering off at the top, with only the very tip of the cone poking above the water surface, which was where the treasure chest had been.
And in front of Wang Tao, at the bottom of this cone, there was a stone door!
After confirming it was a door, Wang Tao swam around the area. There was nothing unusual in other places, only this one door.
“It seems the problem might be inside the door…”
Wang Tao prepared to explore with his spiritual power, but he found that his spiritual power couldn’t penetrate it at all!
Normally, even if it was a very hard stone, Wang Tao’s spiritual power could still get through, albeit greatly weakened, but it didn’t work at all on this stone door…
Wang Tao had encountered a similar situation before; when he attempted to explore the treasure chest with his spiritual power, he found that he couldn’t know what was inside before opening the chest.
This, however, made him even more curious.
He studied it carefully and noticed that there were no locks or anything of the sort on the stone door. He couldn’t see any specific details of the door and didn’t know how to open it.
This immediately gave Wang Tao a headache.
