This was an altar, and a beam of light shot straight into the sky from below.

At the same time, an unfamiliar land could be vaguely seen above their heads.

The clown pointed at the beam of light and said, “That is the path to the fifth level. You can reach the fifth level by standing on the altar.”

After a pause, it suddenly said, “But I suggest you stop your footsteps, my friend.”

Heath raised his eyebrows.

The clown explained, “This area is a treasure burial ground. There will be treasures appearing here at any time.”

“Moreover, this place forbids Apprentices from killing each other.. You don’t need to worry about any danger. You just need to do your best to dig out the treasure chest.”

“Wizard tools, potions, spells, Magic Stones, rare materials, everything.”

After a pause, clown continued, “And if you go up…”

“The future is uncertain.”

Heath shook his head. “I won’t think about stopping.”

There was nothing to hesitate about. In the past two days, they had opened a few treasure chests one after another. Whether it was Wizard tools or spells, they were only at the low-level Apprentice level. These things were not of much help to him.

What he needed now was to win, not to mess around.

After saying that, he walked forward.

However, after walking for a while, he found that Jessica and Jenny were still standing in the same spot.

He turned around. “The two of you?”

The two of them had also received the notification from their respective clowns.

Jessica hesitated for a moment and said with a slightly bitter tone, “Heath, my clown just gave me a suggestion. It wants me to stay. I’ve thought about it and decided to accept its suggestion.”

The trial grounds would become more and more difficult the further they went.

However, she was already in danger for the first part of the journey. If she did not run into Heath by chance, she would have already left.

Moreover, it was impossible for Heath to follow them all the way, and they did not want to follow Heath all the way.

His goal was the finish line. There were several treasure chests appearing in the past two days, but they were all rejected by Heath without hesitation because they were quite far away from them. This made her heart ache for quite a while.

And if she did not follow Heath and continued walking forward, she really did not have the confidence.

Jenny, who was beside him, also nodded. “I’ve also decided to stay. I don’t know what will happen ahead. I don’t think I have the ability to continue moving forward.”

“If we fail at that time, we might as well quit while we’re ahead. We’ll dig up some treasures here and bring them back.”

Seeing that, Heath did not say anything more. He nodded and walked forward.

However, when he walked out, he found that the clown did not follow him.

The clown said, “Friend, I can only accompany you here. You can only rely on yourself for the rest of the journey.”

Alright.

Heath did not say anything. He stood in the center of the altar’s light beam.

A strange magic power inexplicably acted on his body. His body began to slowly rise, leaving the ground and heading toward the land above his head.

On the ground.

Jessica, Jenny, and the clown all waved at Heath and sent their blessings.

“You have to work hard, Heath. Go on for our share and walk to the end.”

“We believe that if it were you, you would definitely be able to do it.”

“Good luck, my friend!”

Heath rose higher and higher, and the people on the ground became smaller and smaller. Soon, they disappeared from his sight.

After a few minutes of rising like this, he reached land.

Click!

It was the sound of boots landing on the ground.

Heath raised his head and looked around. This was still a forest.

Unlike the birds chirping and flowers on the seventh floor, and also unlike the lush greenery on the sixth floor.

The fifth floor was a red forest.

Around them were golden leaves. The fallen leaves piled up a thick layer on the ground, and the entire world turned red.

The bloody setting sun hung in the sky, and the slanting rays of light fell down.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

A gust of wind blew over at the right time, sweeping up a few withered leaves on the ground.

There was a bit of coolness in the air.

Heath pulled his cloak and was about to set off on his journey, but at that moment…

Dong! Dong! Dong!

The dull bell suddenly rang, as if announcing the arrival of some time.

The hourglass placed in Heath’s dimensional pocket suddenly emitted a faint light and flew out from the dimensional pocket, standing in front of Heath.

“The sand has started to fall?”

He looked at the hourglass and saw that the sand that was growing in the hourglass had stopped and started to slowly flow down.

For some reason, a sense of urgency suddenly appeared in Heath’s heart.

“This seems to be only the fifth level…”

“What about the fourth, third, second, and first in front? How far can I go in such a short amount of time?”

“Forget it, let’s leave first. There’s no point in hesitating.”

Shaking his head, Heath continued to walk forward…

At the same time, the Apprentices on each level of the Underdark Treesea Secret Realm trial heard the ringing of the bell.

Their hourglasses also began to slowly flow at the same time.

The trial also entered the countdown…

On the other side, by the entrance of the lake.

Ferde, who was meditating, heard the bell ring and slowly opened his eyes.

A smile appeared on his face. “The time has begun. What will these little guys choose?”

“Is it to go up and win the chance to reach the finish line?”

“Or do you want to quit while you’re ahead and stay where you are and use the remaining time to take as many benefits as possible?”

“It’s hard to choose, isn’t it?”

At the same time, on the fifth level of the Underdark Treesea Secret Realm.

After passing through the road paved with fallen leaves, Heath came to a wide wheat field.

In the middle of the field, there was a wheat ear that reached the knee. It swayed gently with the breeze, like a moving ocean.

Whew!

Suddenly, a sharp sound of rushing wind was heard.

A straw shot towards him at an extremely fast speed.

The warning reaction that he had been using all along did not work. Heath did not notice the danger at all.

Crash!

At the critical moment, the Mimicry Shield appeared naturally, forming an eggshell in front of Heath.

Boom!

The straw hit the Mimicry Shield with a loud bang. The entire Mimicry Shield shook suddenly.

The Mimicry Shield, which had always been watertight, was blasted into a fist-sized hole, and the remaining straw shot directly at his face.

Heath was shocked and quickly turned his head.

The straw brushed past his face, leaving a trace of blood on his face.

In the field in front of him, a scarecrow suddenly appeared. It had a large pumpkin head and a body tied up with withered yellow straw. It looked very unlikable.

Clang!

A loud sword chime sounded.

The cross-shaped sword suddenly came out of its sheath and went straight towards the scarecrow in front of them.

The scarecrow raised its hand, and the straw that was like a machine gun shot straight towards Heath.

Just as it was about to shoot him into a sieve, Heath’s body suddenly accelerated in the air, leaving behind an afterimage.

He got close to the scarecrow and slashed out with his sword. At the same time, a fireball shot out.

Ka!

Boom!

Two syllables rang out. The crossguard sword and the fireball hit the scarecrow at the same time.

One of the scarecrow’s arms was cut off. At the same time, the fireball instantly engulfed the scarecrow’s entire body. With a sizzling sound, the scarecrow quickly burned into a ball of flame.

Not long after, the scarecrow had been burned to ashes. A small blue stone was left on the spot, like some kind of gemstone.

“Is this an alchemical life form?”

Heath picked up the gemstone and looked at it for a while. He quickly recognized the identity of this stone. It was called an Alchemical Gemstone. It was a gemstone used by Wizards to create alchemical life forms.

He held the Alchemical Gemstone and said, ‘Extract.’

[Beep, extraction successful. Spiritual Power +0.01]

Putting away the gemstone, Heath touched the blood line on his cheek. This was the first time he had been injured since he had established the Mimicry Shield

Heath said with lingering fear, “The attack is really terrifying.”

As he spoke, he glanced at the remains of the field. “Fortunately, the defense isn’t that good…”

Hualala!

Heath had just let out a sigh of relief when a series of ‘hualala’ sounds suddenly sounded.

The wheat field trembled, and what happened next stunned Heath involuntarily.

Among the ridges, one scarecrow after another rose from the golden ears of wheat, and there were more than a hundred of them at a glance.
