When it came to the matter of life and death, all twenty individuals became solemn. They nodded their heads and replied, "Understood."
"Well now, let's all get ready. We're going to open the secret area of the Xuan Valley."
The elder gave the order before he turned and gazed at the four clan leaders.
The four clan leaders then stood up and looked over to the green mountain cliff sternly.
"Whoosh!"
At this moment, four jade pendants appeared in the palms of the four clan leaders. They channeled their positive energy and harnessed it towards the mountain wall.
"Boom!"
Through the rumbling and shaking, four beams of light gradually gathered into a circle on the lush green mountain wall.
In the middle of the circle, a light flickered and an entrance with a faint green light appeared. A layer of light rippled like a wave of water at the entrance.
"The entrance is open!"
"You can all enter now.”
"Move along!"
The elder announced.
The crowd immediately began moving.
Wagner and Shamos took the lead and rushed into the circular entrance with a swoosh.
The others followed behind, not wanting to show any signs of weakness.
It was obvious that they wanted to enter first, so that they could seize the upper hand to gain benefits.
Fade was the only one left. He was curiously sizing up the entrance, as if he was pondering on something.
Although the entrance was on the mountain wall, the secret area of the Xuan Valley was obviously not on the mountain. Otherwise, he should have been able to sense it with his cultivation.
The entrance must be an entrance only. The real secret area of the Xuan Valley must be located in another small unknown space.
"Why are you still here? If you do not wish to enter, then leave. Stop wasting our time."
Gotzel couldn't help but feel angry when he saw Fade wandering in a daze, and he roared angrily.
Upon hearing this, Fade frowned and glared at Gotzel. Then, he leaped up and was the last to enter.
"Hmph!"
As soon as Fade entered, Gotzel snorted coldly.
Immediately, the circular entrance on the mountain wall disappeared from sight.
Beside him, Kinsley activated the light of the jade pendant in his hand and shot it out. A water mirror was formed on the mountain wall like a screen.
As the water mirror swayed, only a few vague shadows could be seen. The details were not very clear.
Just as everyone was puzzled, a few specks of light suddenly shone on the blurry water mirror.
Gotzel scoffed when he saw this. The corner of his mouth lifted slightly as he said faintly, "It must Wagner and those who have entered first."
Kinsley then turned to explain to the rest.
"The jade slips that we gave to them just now were specially made. Each jade slip is a speck of light on this water mirror. Every single one of them represents an explorer."
"Through observing the numbers and locations of the light specks on the water mirror, we can roughly know their situations in the secret area of the Xuan Valley. It will be easier for us to rescue them if they are in danger."
After hearing Kinsley's words, everyone finally understood what was going on. Once again, they focused on the water mirror on the mountain wall.
