“This gloomy feeling… If I hadn’t already obtained the Eye of God, I would have turned around and left without saying a word.”

After hearing what Gao Muming said, Paimeng looked at Gao Muming with some confusion.

"Why? Although I also think this secret realm is a bit too gloomy."

"It's mainly because of the environment in this secret realm that it reminds me of some places that I saw from afar that were polluted by the resentment of demon gods. Those places are extremely dangerous and poisonous to those who don't have the Eye of God and can't use elemental power."

As he spoke, Gao Muming looked at Paimon.

"As for Ying, you don't have to worry since you can use elemental power. Paimon, if you feel uncomfortable, you must speak up immediately."

Facing Ying's somewhat worried eyes, Paimon patted his chest.

"Don't worry, I'm fine."

Seeing Paimon's performance, Ying nodded and then looked at Gao Muming.

"I will pay more attention to Paimon's situation. If there is anything wrong with her, I will take her out of the secret realm immediately."

Paimeng, who was standing by, heard what Gao Muming said and looked at Gao Muming with anger and dissatisfaction on his face.

"Wait, I thought you were a nice guy before. From what you said, do you intend to leave Ying alone in this secret place?"

"Have you forgotten the purpose of our coming to this secret place? If the situation really comes to that, Ying will be safer alone than us."

After hearing what Gao Muming said, Paimon also reacted.

"Yes, Ying's brother should have a high status in the Abyss Cult."

"Let's stop chatting here for now. There are monsters blocking the road ahead. Let's go and clear them out."

Looking at a group of monsters wandering in front of the door leading to the depths of the secret realm, Ying called out to Gao Muming and leaped forward, killing the monsters.

"Paimon, you are so kind."

After leaving these words, Takagi Akira followed Ying and rushed towards the monsters.

Although there were many monsters, with the cooperation of Takagi Akira and Ying, they were all easily eliminated.

As they went deeper, Gao Muming and his two companions defeated several more batches of monsters.

After once again defeating a large number of monsters, Paimon, who was hiding, flew to Ying and started complaining.

"Is this place really important? Although there are many monsters, we didn't even encounter an Abyss Mage on the way into the secret realm, let alone the Abyss Apostles mentioned by Dainsleb."

"I'm saying, did the great thief of your treasure-stealing group really disappear in this secret place?"

In response to Paimon's questioning, Gao Muming pointed to the traces he had just discovered.

"What do you think? There are still traces here from when he went deep into the secret realm."

"It's just that there are a little more people on the hills. They actually lost contact in such a secret place. Isn't the treasure thief of your treasure-stealing group a little too foolish?"

In response to Paimon's questioning, Gao Muming spoke up to explain in time.

"If this secret realm is only this level, then that guy would not be in danger in this secret realm with his skills a few years ago. The factor that caused him to lose contact should still be deep in the secret realm."

"In that case, let's move on and see."

Following Ying's decision, several people walked through the door and headed towards the depths of the secret realm.

The moment everyone passed through the door, the secret realm seemed even more profound.

Following the traces left by the great thief Bao's family and moving towards the depths of the secret realm, after avoiding several mechanisms and traps, Paimon's trembling voice rang out.

"Has it been a while since we last encountered monsters? We clearly encountered hillbillies every few steps before. By the way, do you feel that the atmosphere becomes more and more eerie the deeper you go?"

Soon after, following the traces left by the great thief Bao's actions, the three of them came to the huge room at the innermost part of the secret realm.

The moment they entered the room, their eyes were attracted by the Seven-Day Statue of the God of Wind hanging upside down on the ceiling, with strange power condensed in his hands.

Looking at the very strange Seven-Day God statue in front of him, Ying looked at Gao Muming with a complicated look.

"I never thought that we would actually confirm your speculation today. The Seven-Day Statue of the Wind God was indeed stolen by the Abyss Cult."

"Come back to the topic, the Seven Days Statue has been lost for many years, right? In other words, this secret realm has always been well hidden by the Abyss Cult. Why was it exposed at this time?"

Ying expressed her confusion while moving towards the direction of the Seven-Day Statue.

"Well, I have some idea about this."

Hearing what Gao Muming said, Ying turned her head and looked at Gao Muming.

"We mentioned before that after the dragon disaster, the actions of the Abyss Cult were deliberately avoiding you."

"That's it."

Hearing what Gao Muming said, Ying nodded in agreement and then reacted.

"You mean, because I'm going all the way to Liyue Harbor to participate in the summoning ceremony, the actions of the Abyss Cult around Liyue Harbor have all stopped, causing the actions of the Abyss Cult around this secret realm far away from Liyue Harbor to become conspicuous, which is why the treasure-stealing group came?"

"That should be part of the reason. After all, we just encountered an Abyss Mage who was looking for something nearby not long ago."

"Any other reasons?"

"Before, the Fatui bought artifacts related to immortals from the Treasure Stealers at a high price."

"It should be when he was trying to extract the immortal power to imitate the Hundred Unforbidden Talismans."

"Because of the high prices, the treasure-hunting groups in Liyue were frantically searching for traces of secret realms and ruins in Liyue. I think a lot of dangerous secret realms were discovered during that time, and this one is one of them."

Paimon pointed at the bottom of the statue and interrupted the conversation between Ying and Gao Muming with a trembling voice.

"Stop chatting. Could the person kneeling over there be the great thief Bao Jia?"

Ying and Gao Muming looked in the direction Paimon pointed and saw a man dressed as a member of a treasure-stealing group worshiping the statue in a somewhat strange posture.

Gao Muming took a closer look at the thief Baojia's body and found no obvious external injuries. This discovery made Gao Muming frown.

"It is indeed the great thief Bao's family. This guy's body is already stiff."

As Takagi Akira said this, he turned around and stopped Paimon and Ying who were trying to get closer.

"Don't come over here. There are no obvious scars on his body. He probably died because he couldn't withstand the magnetic field of the strange energy gathered in the statue's hand. For safety reasons, it's better not to get close to this upside-down Seven Days Statue."

As Gao Muming spoke, he took a few steps back from the great thief Bao Jia.

After hearing what Gao Muming said, Paimon stopped moving forward and quickly hid behind Ying, while Ying turned his attention back to the upside-down statue of the Seven Heavens God.
