Chapter 2404: Chapter 2424: Secret Realm Roulette, Spinning Destiny

Lin Chen stopped in his tracks, his expression one of shock.

The majestic green mountain Barrier loomed ahead, but now there was no path in front of him.

There was a space barrier blocking Lin Chen.

This space barrier was like an invisible wall, and on the other side of the wall were brightly lit grand green mountains, a continuous mountain range.

This mountain range was the boundary of the safe zone previously mentioned by Lou Zihan, crossing these grand green mountains would mean entering the safe zone, but now Lin Chen stood right at the entrance to the safe zone, unable to take another step forward.

The space barrier seemed to act like a reflective one-way mirror, from this side one could see the world on the other side, but on this side, there was no light from sun or moon, complete darkness.

Lin Chen was like a fly stuck on the glass window of a dark room, able to see the light ahead but unable to fly out.

What was this situation?

The safe zone that was always to the north?

A world that was alternately sealed off in rotation?

I could see the limit of the safe zone from outside of it, but I was separated by a barrier!

Overlapping?

Lin Chen’s mind raced, what manner did this world exist in?

If all the secret realms that were being refreshed and rotated are part of a single spatial dimension, is it possible the world was divided into countless parts?

Using the center of the entire world as the central point, and dividing the entire world into dozens of similarly sized or differing, regular or irregular parts, that central point would be the safe zone of the entire Secret Realm, because it is connected to every world.

In this immense world, only one of the divided small worlds would be in the fixed position between the external entrance of the Secret Realm and the safe zone, other divided small worlds would be obscured by some rule.

This was like a roulette wheel, the pointer of which could only ever point at one divided area, while the other areas would be in rotation, or, in a manner of speaking, shrouded in darkness. As the wheel turned every so often, the pointer would point to the next area; the area pointed at would light up, while those moved away would be shrouded in darkness.

If these small worlds were not overlapping layers, existing in different dimensions, then Lin Chen’s hypothesis might be the most plausible, as the difficulty of folding over a dozen worlds and arranging for them to rotate in turn would be astoundingly high. But if one were to design a world as a roulette wheel that rotates open areas, that would be much simpler.

Isn’t my current position near the roulette wheel’s center?

So, the question arises, what is the purpose of this person?

All those adventurers who previously rotated into the dark areas, are they still alive?

Lin Chen decided to wait.

He felt that the truth of the situation might soon be revealed because, no matter how mystical this world was, its master would probably not pay any attention to it except when turning the wheel, and would likely ignore it at all other times.

After the wheel has turned, what he wants to do, he will probably just do afterward.

Soon, an adventurer with an enormous aura thundered like thunder from the Nine Heavens, his voice echoing far and wide across this world.

"Everyone, come close to me; let’s figure out a way together!"

In the darkness, countless figures leapt up, flying toward the location of the adventurer.

One who could exhibit such might and a voice sounding as though Divine Spirits descended, must certainly be a Great Power. Staying with such a person, one would feel a greater sense of security.

Although hiding might be safer, Lin Chen was equally curious about the true nature of this world.

After all, they were hidden in the Linglong Tower; why not send a clone to test the waters?

With so many people around, surely no one would notice a Small Tower that emitted no fluctuations of breath?

Soon, Lin Chen arrived at the location of the person who had called out; hundreds of Cultivators had already gathered there, and among them were quite a few Daluo Immortals.

The one calling for everyone to assemble was a White-haired Elder with the presence of an immortal, an extraordinary temperament, and his whole body shone with Golden Light, illuminating dozens of miles around.

"Respected one, what is the situation now? We can clearly see the safe zone, but we can’t get through!"

The White-haired Elder responded, "The situation is obvious; our world here has now plunged into darkness, been refreshed and rotated away. We must find a way to escape from here; otherwise, we might be trapped to death or meet other unimaginable fates."

Someone said loudly, "If we combine the power of all of us, can we break the barrier ahead? If we can breach the barrier, we can enter the safe zone and leave through the newly refreshed region..."

Before the person could finish speaking, someone retorted, "You wish. Over ten worlds have already been sealed off, including several Great Powers who intended to break the Secret Realm’s space. All of them disappeared. If the barrier could have been broken, wouldn’t they have done it?"

With these words, the people’s spirits sank even further.

Indeed, if so many formidable people before us couldn’t break through, what makes us think our group could?

I am no child of destiny; if others failed, how could it suddenly work for me?

The White-haired Elder listened to everyone’s noisy discussion and said with a deep voice, "Quiet down..."
