In Teyvat, it all begins with rescuing the grass god.

The group successfully broke through the overwhelming phantom tide.

Then, after a long period of preparation, Tartaglia decisively donned the Demon King's Armor and threw a punch with all his might at the spatial connection point that Xiao had mentioned.

Suddenly.

The entire sealed space trembled violently, and the originally deceptive illusion shattered like a mirage, leaving only a golden portal in front of them and the phantoms that were still frantically chasing them behind them.

The group acted without hesitation.

They immediately went inside, temporarily shaking off their pursuers.

Chapter 235 A Series of Unexpected Events

have to say.

This Tartaglia is really tough.

The portal was deemed extremely difficult to open by Xiao and required a continuous influx of power to maintain.

He punched down.

He was only slightly listless, but not exhausted. He even had the energy to look around and take in the new space.

"I'm a little tired, but it's okay, I can manage."

This was the first thing D'Artagnan said after entering the room.

Rod and Yelan both looked at Xiao.

"Breaking the seal is very difficult; that's Xiao's own words."

"His power after putting on that armor was very special."

This is how it is explained.

"really."

Rhodes nodded.

Tartaglia's Demon Lord Armor combines water elemental power, lightning elemental power, and abyssal power. Although it puts a great burden on his body, it also genuinely increased his power several times over in an instant. In addition, the special nature of abyssal power and the spatial connection point found by Xiao further amplified his strength.

Such a performance is still quite reasonable.

The portal behind them had long since closed.

Xiao is right about that.

With no one maintaining the portal, the sealed space returned to its previous calm within seconds of D'Artagnan breaking it down, and even the shadows of those frantically chasing them disappeared.

"Is this the real sealed space?"

Unlike the bizarre and fantastical Frankenstein's monster illusion, the new secret realm is a desolate and ruined area, with scattered weapons, armor, and withered branches and fallen leaves everywhere.

This is a scene of memories left behind by the Thousand Rock Army and the Floating She five hundred years ago.

The group checked the area thoroughly.

Apart from a few scattered diaries and a new portal, they found nothing else.

"Shall we go in?"

Standing before the portal, Ye Lan did not act impulsively, but instead frowned and asked.

"Enter."

Although it was different from what he remembered, Rod could still confirm that this new secret realm was the space where the Taiwei Instrument Plate was stored.

The voice just fell.

D'Artagnan couldn't wait any longer and rushed in first.

Wait for Rhodes and the others to go inside.

The sight before him almost made Rod's expression falter.

The good news is that the Taiwei Instrument Panel has been released.

It is a bit too big.

This is also normal in this new secret realm created by the sealed space.

And that's what made Rhodes lose his composure.

It's the person who's fighting Tartaglia.

"That...is that you?"

Looking at the two people locked in fierce combat before her, Ye Lan asked hesitantly.

"Yes."

"it's me."

Rod rubbed his nose and said awkwardly.

In this new secret realm where the Taiwei Instrument Plate is kept.

The space reads the memories of everyone who enters and copies one-to-one with their recent enemies.

It is clear.

Although Datalia most wanted to fight Fushe, Xiao's description alone was not enough to give him a concrete image of Fushe.

Therefore, the enemy he read from his memories naturally became Rhodes, whom he had fought when he entered the Abyss of Layered Rocks.

"He's going to win."

In fact, the current situation is still evenly matched, but Xiao still came to a positive conclusion.

"Ah."

"The version of me created in this illusion is a bit weak; it's not as strong as the real me."

Rhodes realized this too.

When discussing techniques and martial arts.

This clone's strength is almost indistinguishable from that of Rhodes himself.

Unfortunately.

An illusion is, after all, an illusion.

No matter how realistic it is, it's impossible to replicate Rhodes's unfathomable reserves of elemental power.

And Rod can beat Dadalia.

It relies precisely on this terrifying reserve of elemental power.

This means that Tartaglia suffered considerable damage after opening the door; otherwise, he would have taken down the clone long ago.

Tadalia, who is already in a winning position, has nothing to worry about.

While he's still fighting.

Rod instructed Xiao to keep an eye on Tartaglia's condition to prevent any unexpected situations, while he himself explored the new secret realm with Yelan.

The Taiwei Instrument Plate was not found in the first secret realm.

This made Rhodes feel uneasy.

Since entering the sealed space, everything that has happened has been vastly different from his memories.

Even if you are absolutely certain that your memory is correct, and that there is nothing wrong with where you came from and the solution you found, there is nothing wrong with it.

There's still some unease.

It's better to be safe than sorry.

What if this sealed place is really different from what he remembers?

What if I really can't find the Taiwei Instrument Plate?

However, Rhodes could not show his worries and had to remain calm and continue to lead the way. The pressure he faced was no less than that of Yelan and the others, who knew nothing about the sealed land.

Compared to the previous secret realm...

The new secret realm is a bit larger and the environment is more complex. Outside the large square where Tartaglia and the phantom fought, everything was covered by some withered bushes.

Broken armor and weapons were everywhere, but there were no corpses to be seen.

Ye Lan picked up a broken sword and carefully examined it: "This is not an illusion."

"Ah."

"It must have been left behind by the Thousand Rock Army soldiers who died here back then."

Rhodes also picked up a long spear covered with serrated teeth. The feel of it in his hand confirmed that it was genuine and not an illusion created by the sealed space.

"pity."

"We don't know where the remains are."

Rod planted his spear in the ground and said regretfully.

The space they are in now is still not the cave where Fushe and Qianyan Army last stayed, so finding and retrieving their remains will be a very difficult task.

"Yeah, it's a pity."

Ye Lan also wore a regretful expression.

Along the way.

She collected many written records left by the soldiers of the Qianyan Army, including diaries and notes.

In the final moments of life.

Besides reminiscing about the past, all the soldiers of Qianyan Army wrote down the words "homesickness".

Unable to fulfill the last wishes of our predecessors.

It's a regrettable thing no matter how you look at it.

"Take as much as you can, even if it's just a cenotaph, it's better than staying in this pitch-black cave for the rest of your life."
