CHAPTER 561: CHAPTER 320 YUN MENG FOREST, LIFTING THE LOCKDOWN_2

"It’s open! The passage is open!"

"The lockdown has indeed been lifted!"

"Quick, quick! Hurry and notify others..."

Exclamations echoed through the air, coming from the corporate groups who had been waiting near the Inner City High Wall for an unknown period.

Even some of the Super Giant Enterprises were still hovering here, not leaving.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!!

Suddenly, numerous Flying Cars and Flying Devices swiftly soared through the sky, heading straight for the passage.

Beneath the hundreds of meters high wall, the stationed military remained on guard, and the Mechanical Martial and Transformed People continued operating their scanning devices.

However, unlike before.

As they approached, no one here obstructed them anymore.

"It seems the benefits inside have all been uncovered."

"I think so too, otherwise why would they let us in?"

Someone inside a Flying Device frowned secretly, but others had different thoughts and voiced their rebuttal.

"No, I heard rumors that someone is leaving Yun Gang."

"Moreover, I heard there are still several dangerous spots in that ruins area that haven’t been fully resolved, requiring sufficient power to participate..."

Similar discussions arose continually, and a Flying Device bearing the Jade Biotechnology logo gradually lined up, waiting for the opportunity to enter the metal passage.

"Young master, you seem preoccupied?"

In the cabin, observing the young man seated by the window with a somber expression, Uncle Liu in a gentleman’s suit, with gray-white hair combed in a three-seven part, asked.

"The transfer order for that person has arrived."

His tone was worried, the smile on his face was gone.

Lin Hao looked out at the bustling Flying Cars coming and going around the metal passage, his eyes filled with concern and gloom.

Upon seeing this, Uncle Liu fell silent.

Although this matter had not been officially announced to the public, almost all major groups in Yun Gang knew the outcome.

A single transfer order, and the entire city was in turmoil.

This also brought about a temporary change for the sealed and guarded Secret Realm.

"Perhaps it’s not that bad."

Uncle Liu sincerely comforted, "After all, Chairman Li Yun holds Master Chen in high regard."

This was no secret; keen observers already noticed the hints during the South Jiang councillor nomination.

To this, Lin Hao reluctantly nodded but did not elaborate further.

Uncle Liu was unaware of the specific truth, so he couldn’t gauge that person’s determination.

The anxiety in his heart thickened, as he withdrew his gaze from the window, contemplating whether to gather more details to confirm if that person really knew the truth.

The thought passed, but he remained unaware.

On the city streets below the high wall, several hundred meters from the military’s position at a corner spot.

A figure clad in loose black clothing, with a bandage wrapped around his neck and a lion mask, stood in the shadow of a tall building, quietly retracting his perception.

"Lin Hao, this guy..."

With a flash in his eyes, Chen Feng didn’t expect the other party to plan entering the Yun Meng Forest.

He did not make his presence known, for he understood the magnitude and wide-reaching effects of what he had to do.

For this, he made ample preparations, even resorting to prematurely activating the Life Essence, slowly consuming it, and had already altered his appearance and aura.

His thoughts sank, and he turned his perception towards the life mark on his chest.

The Life Essence belonging to Admiral Evil Prison was gentle and stable, resembling a green lake.

At its edges, strands of purified Black Tide Life Essence were gradually integrating at a very slow pace.

If he focused further, he could see a chaotic and turbulent force being shrouded by a hazy green light.

"The Heart of Life also has its limits, especially for Black Tide creatures."

The thought arose, and after days of Dream Realm attempts, Chen Feng had already comprehended the purification limits of the Heart of Life.

Within the same timeframe, it could only withstand a total mass of Black Tide creatures equaling two to three times his life strength.

If exceeded, purification would be hindered, and an unusual sensation of corruption and distortion would arise, akin to pollution, leading to deteriorated condition, mental distortion, and even loss of self-control.

Therefore, Chen Feng couldn’t help but think about the legend of the Realm of the Dead.

The Life Series suffered from the death curse and pollution of the Evil God, turning into a twisted scarlet.

Initially, he found it somewhat exaggerated, but now it seemed not entirely impossible.

Perhaps, even the God of Life had fallen to corruption...

"Black Tide..."

In an instant, Chen Feng once again felt the arduousness of this disaster, dismissing the idea of solely relying on Black Tide creatures to replenish Life Essence.

After all, the purification process was indeed quite slow.

To replenish the storage limit of the Heart of Life, more effort would be required in slaying normal Saints like Admiral Evil Prison.

The notion passed, and he looked towards the distant gray-black high wall.

Although the metal passage had been opened, it wasn’t fully accessible; all Flying Cars and Flying Devices were still waiting near the passage exit.

Whoosh!!

At this moment, two Flying Devices descended from the sky, one of them bearing the emblem of a sword and shield belonging to the Chi General Guard.

All eyes were attracted to this, then the cabin door opened, and an elderly figure wearing a gray wool coat with a briefcase flew out.

"Sixth Order Mechanical Martial?"

Chen Feng slightly squinted his eyes.

His perception could penetrate a Fifth-order Force Field, but the opposing party was somewhat obscured.

Clearly, a force field of more than Fifth-order was enveloping the surroundings, allowing the individual to temporarily hover and move through the sky on a Flying Shuttle.

From behind, the Chi General Guard’s Flying Device also opened its doors, and a Red General along with four Gold Generals wearing single-person flying devices followed, their scarlet and golden sword-and-shield insignias conspicuous.

Upon witnessing this scene, many Flying Devices and Flying Cars near the passage intuitively made way, and numerous people from the large corporate groups displayed astonishment.

"It’s Shadow·Tang Lin, he’s Chairman Luo’s old butler."

"Rumors have long suggested he might be a Sixth Order Mechanical Martial, but who knows if it’s true."

"It seems he’s personally escorting that individual to Radiant City, and there’s even a Chi General Guard accompanying. Could it be sent by Wu Zong? Has he really become a Flying General?"

Discussions once again erupted, and in the Jade Biotechnology Flying Device, Lin Hao’s heart sank, and Uncle Liu beside him was also rather serious.

Suspected Sixth Order Mechanical Martial, likely equivalent to a Flying General, carrying significant implications without saying.

Immediately, under numerous gazes.

They saw the elderly figure in the gray wool coat soar into the sky, overtaking numerous Flying Cars, heading directly into the metal passage.

The Yun Gang Guards retreated respectfully, and not even the Chi General Guard stopped him.

In a matter of moments, he visibly maintained a calm demeanor, along with his subordinates, the Red General and Gold Generals, all of whom reached the platform inside the metal passage in silence.

All within just a minute.

Clack!!

A crisp sound echoed, drawing everyone’s attention.

At the end of the square metal passage inside the high wall, the gray-black wall finally began to move, revealing the vast desert land and the towering Star Ring that remained standing.

The long-sealed channel to the Yun Meng Forest finally appeared, but people were too preoccupied to marvel or admire.

The reason being, at the site where the metal wall finally moved and vanished, a dozen figures emerged.

They were composed of powerful Mechanical Martial and Transformed People, a few Fifth Ranks flanking the sides.

Nobody found it peculiar because the middle-aged man in the black wool coat at the center held an unparalleled identity and status.

"Chairman Luo!"

A Red General spoke up, for the first time dropping the word ’Acting’ in front of everyone.

No one could object, as the elderly gray-robed attendant who led the group appeared respectful, addressing Luo Wantao as "Master" upon reaching his side.

Named Tang Lin, the gray-robed elderly follower nodded, giving way by half a step to shield and escort Luo Wantao inside the metal passage.

Perception taking in the entire situation, from the street several hundred meters away, Chen Feng squinted his eyes, turning to gaze at another direction in the sky.

"Oh?"
