Afterwards, Long Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, staring closely at Hu Youyou in front of him, and then slowly asked: "Then, I want to know when exactly did you walk out of the mysterious Blue Sea Secret Realm? Where is the entrance and exit of the Blue Sea Secret Realm?" His voice was low and powerful, as if carrying an invisible pressure.

At this moment, Hu Youyou keenly sensed that her nearly exhausted vitality was gradually returning. She took a deep breath, tried to steady her voice, and then slowly began to speak, "We... emerged from the Blue Sea Secret Realm about two weeks ago. A rough estimate is that there were nearly a hundred people who left together. Half of them were from Earth. After leaving the Blue Sea Secret Realm, some went to the human territory, some to the sea tribe's territory, and the rest to the orc territory." At this point, Hu Youyou paused, as if recalling that unforgettable experience.

Hu Youyou continued, "As for the entrance and exit of the Blue Sea Secret Realm, it should be nearby. According to what they said, the entrance and exit of the Blue Sea Secret Realm are random and usually appear in mid-air."

Long Yan took it and asked, "How did you get in?"

Hu Youyou recalled for a moment and said, "I heard that some orcs had mysteriously disappeared nearby, so I came to investigate and was attracted by a strange halo. As soon as I approached the halo, I was sucked in and then entered the secret realm of the blue sea."

Long Yan crossed his arms, as if pondering the truth of her words. After a moment, he asked, "What's in the Blue Sea Secret Realm? Have you encountered anything special there?"

Hu Youyou's once bright eyes dimmed instantly, and he spoke with a hint of sadness, "Alas... I had just entered not long before I was captured by the despicable Beast Control Sect. I was imprisoned in a dark, damp dungeon filled with a foul odor. Inside, I encountered orcs who had suffered the same fate. Through talking with them, I learned that the people living in the Blue Sea Secret Realm are cultivators from ancient Earth! Back then, when the Earth suddenly experienced that terrible change, their ancestors led their people to hastily escape to the Blue Sea Secret Realm."

Fox Youyou paused briefly, as if trying to recall some important details, then continued, "I heard from the orcs trapped in the dungeon that as time goes by, survival in the Blue Sea Secret Realm is becoming difficult, and they are trying to find a way to leave. After years of experimentation, they found that the only way out is to sign an equal contract with someone outside the Blue Sea Secret Realm."

Hu Youyou paused for a moment, gathering his thoughts before speaking again: "After being taken out, I saw many strange beasts in the Blue Sea Secret Realm. These beasts are the same as those in the Beast Tide. Moreover, there is probably at least one place similar to the Blue Sea Secret Realm. After leaving the Blue Sea Secret Realm, the person who controls the sect once said that he wanted to contact people in other secret realms to launch an attack together and occupy the Earth!"

After hearing this, Long Yan and Lin Ziyu exchanged a glance, frowning slightly. He pondered for a moment, then raised his head to look at Hu Youyou and asked in a serious tone, "Hu Youyou, are you going to follow us or return to the Fox Clan?"

Fox Youyou answered without hesitation: "I decided to return to the Fox Clan. After all, my family is waiting for me there."

Long Yan nodded to show his understanding, "In that case, we won't force you to stay. But the way back will be very dangerous, so you must be careful." Hu Youyou looked at Long Yan gratefully, "Thank you for your concern, I will be careful." After that, he turned and ran towards the direction of the fox clan.

Lin Ziyu watched the fox's back as it slowly retreated into the distance and said worriedly, "The situation on Earth is tense right now. I wonder if the fox tribe can remain unscathed."

Long Yan patted his shoulder and said softly, "We can hardly protect ourselves now, so we should contact Hai Lanyue first to find out the specific situation of the sea clan." After that, he took out the sea clan communication bead, input spiritual energy, and called Hai Lanyue.

After a moment, Hai Lanyue's pale face and figure finally emerged from the communication bead. He lay quietly on the bed, eyes closed, motionless, as if he had lost all life. If it weren't for the faint but unique spiritual energy of Hai Lanyue still lingering on the communication bead, Long Yan would have almost believed him dead.

Long Yan's heart tightened, and he quickly asked, "What on earth is going on? Why did Hai Lanyue become like this?"

At this moment, a hoarse and deep voice came from the communication bead: "Excuse me, are you His Royal Highness the Dragon Crown Prince?"

Long Yan quickly replied, "It is me. May I know who you are?"

The hoarse voice continued, "I am Haiyan, the great general of the Sea Clan. Three days ago, countless insect swarms launched another fierce attack on us. The situation was extremely critical at the time. In an attempt to save me, Lan Yue was unfortunately bitten by a bug. He has been in a coma ever since."

Hearing this, Long Yan couldn't help but frown and asked worriedly, "So what's the current situation of the sea tribe? We are at the seashore now. Yesterday, when we were about to enter the sea, we were attacked by a swarm of insects. After fighting for half a day, we couldn't get close to the sea and had to retreat. Is there any other safe way for us to enter?"

Hai Yan pondered for a moment, but didn't elaborate on the specifics of the Sea Clan. He spoke in a hoarse voice, "There is a teleportation array that can directly transport you to the Sea Clan's imperial city. However, that place is little known, filled with ancient restrictions, and fraught with danger."

Long Yan said without hesitation: "Tell me where the entrance is."

Hai Yan solemnly informed Long Yan of the exact location of the teleportation array in detail, and reminded him in particular: "As long as you carry the Shanghai clan's communication beads, you can ensure that you have a smooth journey and reach the location of the teleportation array smoothly." Long Yan nodded, indicating that he had kept it in mind.

Afterwards, Long Yan led Lin Ziyu and the others, and following the clues and guidance provided by Hai Yan, they successfully found the location of the teleportation array. Unexpectedly, it was hidden in a seemingly ordinary and unremarkable valley.

Standing at the valley's entrance, the view was unremarkable; it was simply an ordinary scene. However, when Long Yan carefully removed the Sea Clan Communication Bead and successfully activated it, a magical scene occurred. The previously ordinary valley suddenly underwent a dramatic transformation, as if under a spell!

The scenery around the valley gradually became clearer. Lush trees were arranged in an orderly pattern, dotted with colorful flowers, emitting bursts of charming fragrance. A crystal-clear stream gurgled through, and the water splashed on the rocks, splashing crystal-clear water like sparkling pearls. In the distance, towering peaks rose into the clouds, shrouded in mist, looming in and out, like a magnificent landscape painting unfolding before everyone's eyes. The entire valley was filled with a tranquil and mysterious atmosphere, which made people unable to help but be intoxicated.

Long Yan, Lin Ziyu, and their group, looking wary, slowly made their way through the valley, reaching its deepest point. Here, a massive, seemingly ancient teleportation array stood silently, as if it had long slumbered. Its ancient and mysterious aura permeated the surrounding air, inspiring awe.

Everyone gathered around the teleportation array, where they saw a small line of words engraved on a nearby stone tablet: "Spirit Stones are required to activate it." Lin Ziyu carefully read the words and nodded thoughtfully. Then he turned to Long Yan and said, "Brother Yan, now I understand why the general was so quick to point out this place. It turns out the key lies in this teleportation array requiring Spirit Stones to activate it!"

You know, spirit stones are an extremely precious and rare resource. Even obtaining one or two is no easy feat. Yet, this seemingly insignificant teleportation array actually requires a full fifty spirit stones to activate successfully. Such a massive amount is truly staggering.

Long Yan stroked Lin Ziyu's hair and said gently, "Don't complain. When we get to the Sea Clan, we can just ask Hai Lanyue to compensate us with the spirit stones."

Lin Ziyu hummed twice, then took out his spirit stones and placed them one by one into the spirit stone slot. As the last spirit stone was placed in, the teleportation array slowly lit up, the light growing ever brighter, blinding everyone. A powerful suction force erupted, and everyone felt their bodies lighten before disappearing from the spot.
