Necromancer, summon skeletons, practice the Heaven-Swallowing Magic Skill

As the sun slowly sank below the horizon, the sky was gradually dyed with the color of sunset. At this time, a subtle tense atmosphere permeated the island, and everyone held their breath, waiting for the entrance to the secret realm to appear.

Fiona looked up at the sky and said softly, "It's almost time."

Karl also looked at the sky and nodded in agreement: "Well, according to ancient records, the secret realm will open at sunset."

At this moment, a faint light suddenly appeared above the island, and a light curtain gradually formed, as brilliant as a rainbow. This light curtain slowly condensed into a huge circular portal, on which flowed various strange symbols and patterns, exuding an ancient and mysterious atmosphere.

Leah whispered in surprise: "Is this the legendary entrance to the secret realm? This is incredible!"

Irene showed a hint of excitement: "It seems that we are really going to gain something this time."

Ares and Silas also exchanged glances, seeming to express the same excitement.

Lu Ming observed all this, secretly thinking about his plan after entering the secret realm.

Carl looked at Fiona and asked, "What should we do now?"

Fiona nodded and replied, "According to the requirements of the ancient ritual, we need everyone to cast a spell together to keep this portal stable so that we can enter safely."

Then, the two teams quickly formed a circular formation, and everyone used their own strength to jointly build a protective barrier to ensure the stability of the entrance to the secret realm. As their strength gathered, the entrance to the secret realm became brighter and more stable, and as the light flowed, it seemed that distant whispers could be heard.

Gregory chanted the spell, and the tip of his staff shone brightly.

Sarah drew the long sword from her back, pointing the tip of the sword into the air, with a green glow flowing on the blade.

Bart and Mia also wielded a two-handed sword and a dagger respectively, releasing their own power.

Fiona stood at the front, her hands intertwined into complex seals, and black runes flew out from her fingertips and merged into the entrance to the secret realm, making the entire portal more stable.

As the preparations were completed, Fiona took a deep breath and announced loudly: "Now, we can go in!"

Everyone stepped into the light cautiously, and after a moment of dizziness, the scene before them changed completely.

When everyone opened their eyes again, they found themselves in a vast unknown land.

The scene here is completely different from the outside world - the sky is a deep purple, as if the night sky is dotted with stars, but without the silence of the night, it is full of vitality and strange vitality.

The entire space seems to be covered with ice and snow, with tiny snowflakes floating in the air, adding a bit of mystery and tranquility to this secret place.

In front of everyone, a majestic waterfall came into view.

Normally, the water of a waterfall should pour down from a great height and fall into the pool below, but this waterfall goes against common sense. It is like an inverted silver chain, rising from a low place and rushing straight into the sky.

The water of the waterfall seems to flow upstream under the influence of some mysterious force, which is amazing.

At this moment, Lu Ming and others were standing on pieces of floating ice.

No one knew where these floating ice came from, but they carried everyone steadily towards the waterfall.

The river they were in was about tens of kilometers wide. The water was rushing, rolling up countless waves, and flashing silvery-white light in the sun.

There are patches of ice on both sides of the river, and the trees and bushes are wrapped in layers of frost, like crystal clear works of art.

The snowflakes in the air gently fell on their shoulders, bringing a slight coolness.

Everything around me seemed so unreal, as if I were in a dream world.

Occasionally, you can see some strange creatures swimming in the water in the middle of the river. They are covered with a layer of transparent film that can reflect colorful light, making them look particularly mysterious in such an environment.

Like everyone else who came here for the first time, Lu Ming carefully observed the surrounding environment, his heart full of curiosity and anticipation.

At this time, the old man Carl warned: "Everyone must remember one thing. You can only travel on floating ice in this river. Never fly, otherwise you will be attacked by creatures on the shore."

"In addition, there are some powerful monsters living under this river. Some of them are as powerful as middle-level gods or upper-level gods."

"Once the iceberg is attacked, dodge it as much as possible and switch to other icebergs. Don't fall into the river, otherwise you will most likely be eaten by these monsters."

"Also, don't fight back, otherwise it will only attract more powerful monsters, and you will die faster."

After hearing the old man Carl's advice, some people nodded carefully, while others were careless and didn't take it to heart.

However, for safety reasons, no one dared to take any risks. Everyone stayed quietly on the ice floe, alert to their surroundings, and did not act rashly.

In this way, Lu Ming and his group slowly moved forward along the floating ice. The surface of the ice under their feet was as smooth as a mirror, and occasionally swayed slightly due to the waves of the river.

There are gaps between the ice blocks, and clear river water flows through them, making a slight gurgling sound.

The scenery on both sides of the river is even more breathtaking. The frozen trees have different shapes, some look like sculptures, some look like naturally formed works of art. Each tree is a unique work.

The purple in the sky became deeper, as if it was the last afterglow before night fell. And those scattered snowflakes spun and danced in the air, falling on the hair and clothes of Lu Ming and others, giving people a fresh and refined feeling.

Although they were surrounded by ice and snow, they did not feel cold. Instead, there was a warm force flowing in their bodies, which kept them energetic.

From time to time, strange creatures appear in the middle of the river.

These creatures have graceful bodies, and the thin membranes on their bodies emit various colors of light under the light, like underwater elves, adding more fantasy to the river.

Some creatures even leap out of the water, showing off their graceful figures, before landing lightly in the water, creating ripples.

As time went by, they got closer and closer to the mysterious waterfall.

The roar of the waterfall echoes in my ears. Although the sound is loud, it is not harsh. Instead, it has a soothing effect.

The water column of the waterfall rolled in the air, forming a thick mist that enveloped everything around it, as if it was a portal to another world.

However, at this moment, an accident happened.

The originally calm river water began to become restless, with undercurrents surging, and it seemed to contain a terrifying force.

The floating ice under everyone's feet was suddenly covered with cracks and was about to break.

Everyone's expression changed slightly, and they immediately dispersed and jumped onto other nearby ice floes.

But the surrounding icebergs were also very fragile at the moment. Except for a few that were relatively hard and safe to stand on, most of the rest would break into pieces if stepped on.

In desperation, everyone could only fly towards the ice floes farther away, trying to find a foothold that could support their weight.

Lu Ming and the others acted quickly. Using their own abilities, they jumped on the ice, trying their best to avoid stepping on the fragile floating ice.

Carl used his agility to easily move between the ice floes; Ares used his weapon as a support point to jump steadily; and Fiona used her ability to create a short ice bridge to help others quickly pass through the dangerous area.

During this process, the cooperation among everyone became more and more tacit.

Although the situation was critical, they did not panic. They all kept Carl's instructions in mind. Every time someone flew in the air, they all used the power of their bodies to change their positions by jumping.

After some effort, they finally found some relatively solid ice floes and successfully gathered together.

Just when everyone breathed a sigh of relief and thought they were temporarily safe, the surface of the river suddenly began to surge.

With waves of low roars, several powerful monsters jumped out of the water and attacked them.

These monsters were obviously disturbed by the arrival of the crowd. They were huge, their skin was as hard as rock, and their eyes flashed with fierce light. One of the monsters opened its mouth wide, revealing its sharp teeth, and pounced directly on the nearest piece of floating ice, stirring up huge waves.

Carl reacted quickly and shouted to everyone, "Remember what I just said, don't fight back, speed up and move towards the waterfall, otherwise it will only attract more monsters!"

As he spoke, Carl kept jumping on the ice floes and rushed towards the waterfall. The others hesitated for a moment, gritted their teeth, and followed.

When they were about to reach the bottom of the waterfall, the water in front of them suddenly churned violently, and a powerful breath surged out.

Immediately afterwards, a huge monster exuding powerful pressure suddenly jumped out of the river and blocked their way.

This demon beast was obviously a mid-level god. Its body was dozens of meters long and covered with thick scales that shone with a metallic luster in the sun.

Its eyes were like two burning flames, revealing a ferocious and cunning light.

The monster's limbs are thick and powerful, and every step it takes will stir up waves of water, showing its amazing strength.

Carl stopped and observed the monster vigilantly, shouting to his companions: "Everyone be careful, this is a lower god level monster, we have to act with caution!"

The monster let out a deafening roar, as if warning the invaders not to come near.

It slapped the water with its huge claws, splashing huge waves, and the entire river surface was turbulent because of its actions.

Lu Ming hid behind the crowd and observed the situation.

He was considering whether he should take advantage of the chaos to use the secret magic of the demon clan and leave first.

But at this time, old man Carl stepped forward.

He steadied his body, holding the dagger tightly in his hand, he took a deep breath, and stared at the monster in front of him with firm eyes.

The Warcraft was obviously angered by these invaders who dared to challenge it!

It roared again, its voice full of threat and anger.

Carl: "We have to distract it and find a way in. Ares, Fiona, are you ready?"

Ares nodded, raised his two-handed sword, and a gleam of determination flashed in his eyes: "Be ready, I will attract its attention."

Fiona clenched the wand in her hand, and the air around her began to condense into tiny ice crystals: "I will use my magic to support you."

Following a command, the three men took action at the same time.

Ares strode forward, swinging his greatsword, trying to attract the monster's attention.

As expected, the Warcraft was attracted by Ares' provocation. It pounced on Ares suddenly, and its huge claws almost knocked Ares to the ground.

At the same time, Carl went around from the side, looking for an opportunity to attack the monster's weaker points.

Fiona cast undead frost magic in the back. As she chanted the spell, the temperature around her dropped suddenly, and ice cones formed from the air and flew towards the monster.

Although the monsters are powerful, they cannot completely ignore these attacks.

It roared in pain, using its claws to block the icicles while trying to shake off Ares. Ares used his strength and skills to barely avoid the monster's heavy blow, and found the right time to leave a deep wound in the monster's abdomen.

Fiona: "Carl, now!"

Hearing Fiona's call, Carl quickly adjusted his position. He took advantage of the monster's distraction and jumped onto its back.

Carl steadied his body and thrust the dagger into the monster's neck.

The monster felt severe pain and shook its body violently, trying to throw Carl off.

Carl: "Hold on, we're almost there!"

Carl held on to the monster's scales tightly to prevent his body from being thrown out.

The monster's struggle became weaker and weaker, and finally, it let out a final wail and fell heavily to the ground.

Carl rolled off the monster's back and stood up, panting.

Ares: "Well done, Carl!"

Fiona ran over and checked if Carl was injured: "Are you okay?"

Carl: "I'm fine, thanks to you two."

The three of them looked at each other and without taking a break, they immediately shouted to everyone, "Everyone, speed up! Although we killed this lower-level god-level monster, the bloody smell of its blood will attract more monsters."

"We must move quickly, otherwise we might die here."

As they spoke, the three of them took the lead and stepped on the ice floating in the river and climbed up the waterfall.

The rest of the people did not dare to hesitate and followed.

When everyone reached the waist of the waterfall, they discovered that hundreds of magical beasts appeared in the river below.

Some of these monsters are in the realm of pseudo-gods, some are in the realm of true gods, and there are two lower-level gods.

At this moment, they were all attracted by the smell of blood, and they were madly fighting for the body of the dead lower-level god and demon beast, and they kept killing each other.

Seeing this scene, the powerful True God Realm warriors in the team were all terrified and felt fear.

Lu Ming also showed a rare solemn expression, thinking to himself: "We are still at the outskirts of the secret realm, and we have encountered a lower-level god-level monster. If we continue to go deeper, I am afraid it will only become more and more dangerous."

Suddenly, Lu Ming perked up and dared not take it lightly anymore.
