The Temple of the Thousand Winds, the second layer of the secret realm.

The Adventurers' Guild said that traces of the existence of the petrified ancient tree were found on the second layer.

Therefore, in order to avoid the situation of headless flies scurrying around in the entire large-scale secret realm, Li Qiuzhi and the others also came to the second layer as soon as possible.

"Hey, hey, hey... Get out of the way! ”

As soon as the three of them reached the second floor from the first floor, they were shocked by the scene in front of them.

This is not the oversized dome room they had dropped from earlier, but the newly discovered exit from the first floor to the second floor.

In front of you, you can see the glow of a small burning bonfire, a large rectangular passage illuminated by a large rectangular passage, and the walls are also made of bricks.

Adventure tents stand on both sides of the passage, with no end in sight.

Some adventurers also put up for sale some of the materials they had harvested during their quest in the Secret Realm, and it was as lively as the streets of Mondstadt.

On the top of the stairs leading to the second floor, seven or eight more adventurers came down.

The leader, a square-faced guy with a large adventure backpack, said impatiently, pushed Bennett, who was standing on the left side, slightly blocking their past, and walked straight ahead.

"Uh... I'm sorry...," Bennett said, scratching his head, a little embarrassed.

The main thing is that Li Qiuzhi and the three of them stood still, which caused Bennett, who was on the far left, to block the way of others.

"Hmph, rude fellow!"

Fischl crossed his waist and said unceremoniously.

The purple and black skirt of her short dress swayed slightly, vaguely hiding her legs wrapped in asymmetrical black silk stockings under the skirt.

The slightly skin-colored black silk stockings on the right leg are gone, and the cut that had been cut open by the rubble during the previous adventure was gone.

It should be a new one.

Continuing to look from behind, the skin that would be exposed on Fischl's left thigh in suspender stockings was vaguely hidden by the tail of the skirt.

The snow-white and soft appearance of the thighs can only be imagined.

The group of adventurers in front had already walked away, and Li Qiuzhi walked around the lively passage, looking curiously at the things they were selling.

There are one-star and two-star holy relics that have been opened from the treasure chest, and the three-star ones don't seem to be sold.

There are also ores such as crystal ores, slime condensate dropped by slimes, broken masks of hilichurls, sharp arrow clusters, and energy scrolls.

There are also chaos devices, and there are even people who take apart the various parts of the ruin guards and sell them.

These guys are probably trying to lure the young rookie adventurer into spending, after all, go back and say to the other friends, "Look, this is the arm of the Ruin Guard!" ”

Haha, only people with a good face will be fooled.

Except for the chaos device, the other parts of the ruin guards are not high-tech, and they are probably only used for rerefining into useful metals.

"Rough stones! Does anyone need the rough gems from the treasure chest? Sell it cheaper! ”

At this time, several people heard the sound of someone selling the rough stone in front of them, Li Qiuzhi's eyes lit up slightly, and he sped up two steps and stepped forward.

"Your Excellency Li Qiuzhi really likes these shiny things." Oz, the night raven in the back, sighed slightly.

Then he slowly followed with Fischl and Bennett.

In front of the booth of the adventurer in forest-colored clothes, there were indeed two shiny rough stones, although Li Qiuzhi was a little excited, he was not very visible, he asked:

"How's the price?"

The adventurer in the forest-colored suit said, "Ninety-five thousand Mora is a bargain." ”

It is indeed cheap according to the average 100,000 mola piece, but it is not much cheaper in this price scale.

Li Qiuzhi also knew that the rough stone was not to be sold, and it would be very good if it could be cheaper.

So he didn't bargain hesitantly, and he bought it first before anyone else came to buy it.

The two rough stones cost 190,000 mora, and now he only has 80,000 moras left, which is not enough for the rent to be paid to Eula next month.

There is no need to rush for the time being, after all, there is still more than half a month.

Li Qiuzhi put the two rough stones into the adventure backpack, Bennett walked over to Li Qiuzhi and said:

"I didn't expect you to like the rough stone so much, but unfortunately, I have been an adventurer for so long I have met the rough stone only a limited number of times, and I haven't gained much, otherwise I can sell it to you."

"Then Bennett, if you get the rough stone, you can keep it for now, and when I have Mora, how about buying it from you?"

Li Qiuzhi thought for a moment and said.

After all, this kind of unattainable thing, even if Mora has it, may not be able to buy it, and Bennett is willing to keep it for him, which is really helpful.

Although his unlucky constitution may not allow him to get the rough stone smoothly.

"Of course no problem!"

The rough stone is not very useful for Bennett, who to sell it to is not to sell, since friends are in need, of course it is a priority.

"This small glow is just an embellishment in the corridor of the backyard of the palace of the Imperial Maiden, my attendant, if you need it."

Fischl smiled on his face, his white hand ruffled the long golden hair on the right side, and then gently flicked it, the hair slightly spread out and then fell, and finally covered the snow-white soft shoulders.

Do you mean to let me go to the Pure Land of the Night..... Li Qiuzhi thought a little helplessly.

There was no wind in the secret realm, and after staying in this crowded passage for a long time, Li Qiuzhi suddenly saw someone in front of him running back excitedly.

Then he shouted:

"Big news! Big news! An adventurer has found petrified ancient trees in the swampy areas to the east!! ”

As this voice came, the temporary bustling street seemed to be suspended, and in the next second, everyone burst into huge cheers!

Immediately after that, every adventurer began to mobilize, packed up their weapons and various adventure items, and poured out like ants marching.

"Great, I didn't expect such good luck to find a treasure just after coming to the secret realm!"

Bennett clenched his fists excitedly, his eyes glowing green.

When Li Qiuzhi heard Bennett's words, he inexplicably had a bad premonition, after all, the words "good luck" were not right when they came out of his mouth.

But since the petrified ancient tree appeared, they definitely couldn't miss it, and if they didn't participate, they wouldn't be able to distribute the loot.

That's right, things like petrified ancient trees that only appear in secret realms and are more deeply connected to the leylines will generally attract more monsters.

Because the secret realm itself has a denser distribution of monsters than in the wild, the attraction range of petrified ancient trees to monsters is also greater.

According to the past records of the Adventurers' Guild, the number of monsters gathered around the petrified ancient tree was generally no less than twenty or thirty, or even more.

This is not something that the average adventuring party can handle on their own.

The only way is to spread the word, and under the witness of the Adventurers' Association, everyone will clean up the monsters together, and finally distribute the treasures obtained from the petrified ancient trees according to the contribution of the adventure group.

As for attacking the Secret Realm Petrified Ancient Tree alone, it would probably take three or four breakthroughs to have a chance, and it might not be successful.
