This altar had probably existed here for a long time, and it remained remarkably intact.

On the altar were three columns over 2 m high, radiating white, yellow, and blue colors, which were obviously consistent with the colors of the three elemental cores in Line's hands.

The next steps were easy to imagine.

He just needed to place the corresponding elemental cores into the grooves on the columns to activate the altar.

This was also Seong Ming's conjectured method to unlock the hidden task of this secret realm.

However, what would actually happen and what consequences would arise from doing so were hard to say.

Judging by the fact that the alliance had not sent anyone to carry out the strategy for this hidden task in recent years and had not publicly released information about it, it seemed that the higher-ups of the alliance considered Seong Ming's method unreliable.

After all, when Seekong Ming devised this method, he was just a young man, not much older than Lini.

In terms of experience, he certainly couldn't compare to the grown-up Seong Ming himself.

So after multiple failed attempts and significant losses of life, he ultimately decided to give up on attempting to strategize this hidden task.

If Leni hadn't dug up Seong Ming's notes and seen the strategy, he might not have known about these matters at all.

However, now that he was here, he couldn't back down.

Following the colors of the columns, Linny placed the three cores into their respective grooves.

After the third elemental core was placed, Linny felt the entire altar begin to tremble.

The sealed ancient dragon body is about to break free from its seal.

Please evacuate the altar.

Linny saw this prompt and couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

Was this a parkour challenge? The passage he had traversed was indeed somewhat difficult, and Linny had been wondering why it had such an abstract path.

Now it seemed that he had to parkour his way out.

Boring.

Lenny shook his head and directly stepped forward to perform a spatial move, leaving the altar.

If someone else had come here, wouldn't they have had to run back along the path they took? Linny stood in the air, looking down at everything below.

The entire forest was shaking as if some colossal creature was about to break through the ground beneath.

Amidst the rumbling, Linny heard a loud and soaring dragon's roar coming from afar, gradually approaching.

He looked in the direction of the sound and saw a massive translucent dragon flying towards him.

The ancient dragon spirit.

Linny raised his eyebrows slightly.

This translucent dragon spirit was clearly the boss of this secret realm.

At this moment, it had appeared here.

Linny did not take action.

If he killed the dragon spirit now, he probably wouldn't be able to trigger the hidden task.

He had already guessed that the content of this hidden task was certainly not just about killing the dragon spirit.

The ancient threecolor dragon is awakening.

Please evacuate.

At that moment, Linny saw another prompt asking if he wanted to settle now and leave the secret realm.

How considerate, Linny smiled.

Generally, in a deep level secret realm, one could only choose to leave freely after meeting one of two conditions.

defeating the boss or eliminating at least 80 of the monsters in the secret realm.

As long as one of these conditions was met, they could settle and leave at any time.

Though this wouldn't count as completing the task, and the rewards would be slightly reduced.

Now, Linny saw a prompt to leave without meeting the conditions, which was indeed a first for him.

But of course, Linny would not choose to leave just like that.

This bit of intimidation was clearly not enough to scare him.

He directly chose to decline the option to exit.

At that moment, the ground completely shattered and a gigantic figure emerged from within.

A massive dragon head lifted, slowly revealing three pairs of differently colored eyes.

This strange dragon had six eyes and six wings.

Its body was so enormous that it far surpassed any beast Lini had seen before.

Linny felt that he was even smaller than one of its teeth.

Clearly, this was the true form of the ancient dragon spirit, and Lin had activated the altar to release its seal body.

The terrifying beast that followed was the ultimate challenge Lin Yi was about to face.

This was too exaggerated.

The corner of Lin Ya's mouth twitched slightly.

Clearly, Seongming<unk>s idea for unlocking this hidden task was not wrong.

However, it was also correct that the alliance did not publicize Seong Ming's thoughts.

If it were made public, the mortality rate of human geniuses would likely surge dramatically.

Chapter 270.

True violence under such terrifying pressure.

The creatures within the entire secret realm were trembling.

The aura of this ancient dragon had evidently surpassed the endurance of ordinary monsters.

At this moment, just the sheer pressure was enough to make them completely lose their will to resist.

However, it had little effect on Lenny.

As long as the opponent was not above level 35, Lini felt no fear.

This giant dragon before him might indeed be very strong.

But unfortunately, it appeared in a level 35 secret realm, which meant it was bound to face various restrictions.

Please stop the ancient dragon from shattering the secret realm and escaping to the abyss before the countdown ends.

Countdown starts 10 minutes.

Lenny raised his eyebrows upon seeing this prompt.

In other words, he had to kill this dragon within 10 minutes.

The difficulty of this task was simply outrageous.

If it were someone else, let alone defeating this massive ancient beast in 10 minutes.

It would be difficult even to withstand its attacks for that long.

Pitiful mortal.

As a reward for resurrecting me, I can spare your life.

The dragon's voice echoed in Lin's ears, filled with disdain and mockery, clearly not taking Lini seriously at all.

Otherwise, it wouldn't consider sparing him as a reward, displaying a posture of absolute confidence over Lini.

How grateful I am.

Ly responded with a smile.

Not angry with the dragon.

He understood that there was no need for that.

To be forced to die right after being resurrected.

This dragon was somewhat pitiful, wasn't it? The ancient dragon seemed somewhat surprised by Lin's reaction.

Its six eyes casting a glance at him.

But it was just a glance.

An interesting bug was still just a bug for the proud dragon.

Looking at a bug was already considered a form of grace.

However, this bug was quite lucky.

Having escaped years of imprisonment, it was in a good mood and decided to give this bug a chance.

When I returned to the abyss, "Come find me, and I shall grant you endless power.

" After saying this, it no longer looked at Liy, but instead raised its head to the sky.

At this moment, three magic circles lit up around it in white.

yellow and blue representing the dragon's three attributes: wind, earth, and water.

Linny calmly observed everything.

It was evident that this secret realm had indeed sealed an ancient dragon.

The result of this task would undoubtedly lead to disaster.

If he couldn't stop this ancient dragon from returning to the abyss, it would surely be a catastrophe.

With a roar that shook the heavens and earth, three beams of light surged towards the sky.

Clearly, it was trying to break the shackles of this secret realm and escape to the abyss.

If it were to be allowed to leave, it would be far from good news for humanity.

Given the current state of the abyss, where demon gods were entrenched, this dragon could very likely wreak havoc in a human world if it sought living space.
