“Damn, there’s actually a rainbow crystal here, too!” Zhang Che was stunned when he saw the broken rainbow crystal.
Although Zhang Che could make any sound, his heart was incredibly shaken, screaming inside.
-How can there be a rainbow crystal here!?-
However, no matter if Zhang Che believed it or not, the object floating in the air before his eyes was indeed a rainbow crystal. Although it was broken, its quality and color was exactly the same as the rainbow crystal in his spiritual sea.
At this moment, the rainbow crystal in his spiritual sea was trembling in anticipation.

-Please, please, no, wait a minute, big boss. Wait for me to find a way to disable the restriction here first before you devour this thing, okay?- Zhang Che hurriedly cried inside, anxious.
If he allowed the rainbow crystal to devour the broken one, wouldn’t this world immediately collapse, and he wouldn’t gain any benefits from it?
-No, no way. I mustn’t let this happen!-
Zhang Che almost wanted to kneel to the rainbow crystal in his spiritual sea.
Fortunately, the rainbow crystal stopped stirring restlessly. Even so, its anticipation was still present.
Zhang Che was feeling incredibly anxious. His fox’s eyes hurriedly looked around the other areas on the higher platform. However, even if his eyes popped out of their sockets from his frantic searching, there was nothing else to be found on the higher platform.
-No way… how can there be nothing else? At least leave a book or a bamboo scroll or whatever behind to let me control the stone platform!
-Or is it invisible to the naked eye, and I have to observe it with my spiritual force?- Hundreds of thoughts flew through Zhang Che’s mind. He was getting frustrated from anxiety, but in order to look for the thing that would allow him to control the restriction set in place, he grit his teeth and calmed himself, sinking his consciousness into the golden vortex. He relied on the profound state to sense his surroundings.
Alas, it turned out to be fruitless…

Time ticked away by the second. Zhang Che still couldn’t find anything in the area. Finally, the rainbow crystal in his spiritual sea ran out of patience. A strong suction directly erupted, sweeping towards the broken crystal shard in the air.
Zhang Che wanted to cry, but no tears would come out. He vaguely understood that perhaps the method to undo the restriction wasn’t left behind at all? Otherwise, the rainbow crystal wouldn’t have ignored his orders, right?
At this moment, the broken rainbow crystal shard suddenly put up a violent struggle. Dense rainbow light burst out from the broken crystal, resisting the rainbow crystal’s attempt to devour it.
In this fragmented world, the winds and cloud stirred up all of a sudden. Many lights flashed through the whole world.
Afterwards, the lights faded at the same time, turning into waves of invisible energy and sweeping towards the floating mountain range Zhang Che was at, gathering onto the piece of broken crystal.
“Hmm, is that thing actually alive?” Zhang Che couldn’t help but feel very curious as he watched the crystal shard drawing in the vast amount of energy in the space crazily and trying its hardest to resist the rainbow crystal.
He had thought it would be a piece of cake for the rainbow crystal to devour the crystal shard. Unexpectedly, it was able to put up such a strong resistance!
Shouldn’t it cooperate nicely and let the big boss rainbow crystal have a good time?
“But, from the looks of it, the rainbow crystal will succeed in the end.”
As he felt the suction produced by the rainbow crystal growing stronger and stronger, Zhang Che wasn’t worried that its operation would fail.
The big boss had never fought a losing battle before. Since it made its move, it would surely obtain the final victory!

“Damn it, what the heck is going on!?”
Hundreds of beastmasters had entered the fragmented worlds by now. However, no matter where they were, every one of them stopped whatever they were doing at the same time. Feeling the terrifying shift of energy, none of them dared to make any moves.
This secret plane was very strange to begin with. Let alone being stuck in the floating mountains, now there was an energy storm brewing in their surroundings. If they didn’t act carefully, they might find themselves dying horribly.
Everyone started cursing in their hearts. If they knew this would happen, they wouldn’t have come to this secret plane!
The secret planes in the past would always have at least a two year gap before the next one appeared. Now that another one appeared after less than half a year, surely there would be problems inside!
All of a sudden, the entire world returned to what it was like before anyone entered. It was silent everywhere, and no sound could be heard.

At Zhang Che’s location, things seemed to have come to a crucial moment.
Although the energy from the crystal shard was still surging violently, resisting the rainbow crystal’s attempt to devour it, Zhang Che could tell that the rainbow crystal was mostly still probing its opponent’s strength. When it was done investigating, it would take further actions.
Indeed, a few minutes later, the rainbow crystal suddenly flew out from Zhang Che’s spiritual sea, and hovered above him.
Intense rainbow light burst out from the inside of the rainbow crystal, suddenly forming an enormous rainbow cocoon that enveloped the entire higher platform.
As the cocoon took shape, the crystal shard’s connection to the outside world was suddenly and forcibly cut off, unable to connect anymore.
The crystal shard finally grew terrified. It was only about the size of a fist, and trembled slightly in the air, seemingly in fear, but also looking like it was pleading for mercy.
Even so, the rainbow crystal was unmoved. The rainbow cocoon bound the space firmly, and the intensity of its attraction grew incredibly terrifying. It was too strong; so strong that the little fox Zhang Che had turned into was pressed to the ground, and even moving his eyes proved to be difficult.
-Shit… this won’t end with me dying here, right?- Zhang Che suddenly felt a hint of fear.
As the saying went, mortals get swept up in the trouble when deities fought. His strength was nothing compared to these two gods. If the rainbow crystal was careless for a moment and let the crystal shard’s terrifying energy erupt, wouldn’t he be torn to countless pieces?
In the next moment, another suction force came from the rainbow crystal.
This suction wasn’t aimed at the crystal shard. Instead, it directly swept towards Zhang Che.
-Damn, big boss, you got the wrong person!- Zhang Che cried inside, but it was useless.
He felt the golden vortex in his spiritual sea suddenly spun quickly. A mass of pure spiritual energy erupted, which was swallowed by the rainbow crystal.
-I’m done for… I’m done for… my treasure is devouring its master…- Zhang Che wailed inside. He couldn’t move a muscle, and could only watch as the rainbow crystal devoured the enormous spiritual energy in the golden vortex.
Just as Zhang Che thought he was completely done for, the rainbow crystal suddenly stopped consuming his spiritual strength.
Zhang Che was stunned for a moment. He suddenly sensed the draw from the rainbow crystal had become much stronger.
In the next moment, the crystal shard finally couldn’t hold on any longer, and was drawn towards the rainbow crystal.
In the blink of an eye, the crystal shard knocked against the rainbow crystal. The huge explosion Zhang Che was anticipating didn’t happen. The crystal shard directly turned into a flawlessly pure rainbow light and was absorbed into the rainbow crystal.
The next instant, the upheaval of energy in the entire space ended. Everything returned to a state of peace.
The beastmasters in the secret plane all sighed in relief. Afterwards, they quickly flew towards where they had entered earlier in joy.
The energy storm was probably caused by the invisible barriers shattering due to too many people entering the secret plane, right? With that, they could exit and be free to go wherever they want in this world!
Like they had thought, how could the appearance of a secret plane not give any benefits to them? It turned out that too few people had entered thus far, resulting in those invisible barriers being present.
However, the mass of beastmasters were stunned again.
Flying at high speeds, they violently crashed into an invisible wall as tough as cowhide, together with their flying mounts.
There was no sign of the barriers dissolving at all! Everything was only the imaginations of the beastmasters…
-I’m done for… there really is no way to exit!…- everyone cried miserably at the same time…
—
-#$%&!… that fellow devoured the crystal shard after all. Looks like I really won’t gain anything on this trip!-
Zhang Che felt the enormous pressure was lifted, but his little fox’s body remained lying on the higher platform, too lazy to move a muscle.
What was there to move for? The world was about to literally shatter, and everyone in the secret plane would be thrown back into Mercury. Why would he waste his energy?
-If I had known this, I’d have been better off entering the beast world to hunt exotic beast and striven to advance to Tier Seven beastmaster. I wasted a few days’ time for this matter for nothing. How sad!-
As for the rainbow crystal’s gain for devouring the rainbow crystal shard, Zhng Che directly wrote it off.
It wasn’t the first time the rainbow crystal had done something like this. In any case, there wasn’t any benefit for him. Who cared?
Zhang Che clearly remembered that after the rainbow crystal devoured the chaotic energy in the previous secret plane, no changes were apparent to him at all, greatly disappointing him, so this time he didn’t feel the slightest hint of anticipation.
-Hmm? Why hasn’t the world started to break down?- Zhang Che gradually felt something was amiss…
