Chapter 361 Hidden Crisis

Boom boom boom!

Then, several more jets of water shot out from beneath the lake surface, scattering across various parts of the lake.

As the water column receded, a large amount of resources and hidden fragments floated in mid-air.

"The concentrated outbreak has begun!"

Xu Ning reacted immediately and rushed to the nearest resource explosion point as fast as he could.

For a time, people from all sides who had been waiting for a long time were frantically vying for resources.

Wow!

Upon approaching a breaking point, Xu Ning swept his gaze across the void, and a large amount of resources and hidden fragments were collected into his spatial ring.

During this process, other eighth-level strategists also approached, competing with Xu Ning for resources.

However, Xu Ning acted the fastest, and most of the resources and hidden fragments at this outbreak point ended up in Xu Ning's pocket.

Only a small portion was divided up by other eighth-tier strategists who arrived a few steps later.

Xu Ning exchanged glances with the other contenders, noticing the wariness in their eyes.

However, despite their mutual hostility, they were both quite restrained and no major fight broke out.

We are currently in the early stages of a resource boom, so there is absolutely no need to risk our lives.

If we get injured now, we will miss out on acquiring resources later, which would be a huge loss.

After Xu Ning finished fighting for one resource point, he was about to go and fight for other resources when he found it was too late.

While one person is capturing a resource point, others are also capturing them, and other hotspots are also divided up in an instant.

"The competition for resources is indeed fierce..."

Xu Ning thought to himself.

After this struggle, Xu Ning returned to the island to wait.

Resource bursts occur intermittently; now that one round has ended, we must wait until another round begins before we can continue competing.

"When the resources erupted just now, all the resources and hidden fragments seemed to be surging up from the bottom of the lake, but in fact they appeared out of thin air beneath the surface of the lake before surging out... This is a spatial technique."

Xu Ning recalled the scene that had just erupted.

"Before the next outbreak, I can sense the spatial fluctuations in advance... If I can use this to improve my reaction speed, it will greatly increase efficiency..."

Xu Ning thought to himself.

The period of abundant resources is still ongoing.

One day, two days, three days...

Soon, there was only one day left before the Mystic Tower closed.

During this period, the concentrated release of resources brought great benefits to everyone.

In particular, the eighth-tier strategists from all sides, leveraging their strength, have amassed a large amount of resources and hidden fragments.

Meanwhile, as the closing day of the Mystic Tower approaches, the intensity of the competition among various forces has increased by more than one level.

Previously, the competition for resources among all parties was relatively restrained, but now, violent competition and even looting have emerged.

Using violence to force the weak to hand over their spatial rings is a more direct and simple approach.

For this reason, some sixth- or even seventh-level strategists have already given up on competing for subsequent resource burst points.

They had all found hiding places in advance, waiting to be safely ejected after the Mystic Tower was sealed.

Although this means giving up a lot of resources, at least it ensures that the resources already acquired won't be lost.

Xu Ning also reaped considerable benefits during this period.

The sheer volume of resources released in such a concentrated manner exceeded Xu Ning's expectations.

Xu Ning originally expected that he would have more than 8000 million units of energy remaining when he left the Mystic Tower.

Now, his resources have reached 10000 million.

There are still 2000 million resources needed to advance to the ninth rank and comprehend the origin of the Mystic World.

Although the more the Secret Master Tower closes, the more Hidden Fragments appear and the less resources there are, Xu Ning still has a large number of Hidden Fragments in his possession. As long as he goes out, he can exchange them for resources worth 2000 million units of energy from the Gao family.

Xu Ning's advancement to the ninth rank and return to the martial arts world will soon be realized.

boom!

At this time, a new round of resource explosion occurred.

Xu Ning had already sensed the spatial fluctuations in advance, and quickly occupied a point of explosion, collecting all the hidden fragments that gushed out.

"This resource explosion has left no more Mystic resources... they're all Hidden Fragments."

Xu Ning thought to himself, "These hidden fragments, once pieced together, will determine the coordinates of the outer world. However, as for how to piece them together, I don't quite understand..."

However, Xu Ning didn't care about this; he didn't need it.

The wave of resource explosions continues.

The closer it gets to the time when the Mystic Tower is closed, the more frequent the bursts of attacks become.

At this moment, during a lull in resource explosions, inside the lake, on another small island not far from Xu Ning Island, two people were talking.

"Senior brother, the amount of resources and hidden fragments that the eighth-tier secret master from the Gao family has acquired during this period is simply outrageous!"

The speaker was a man dressed in a blue robe. He was over thirty years old and a first-stage eighth-rank secret master.

The man he called his senior brother had a thick beard and a fierce face; he was a peak eighth-level secret master.

"Should we just finish him off and take his spatial ring?"

A ruthless glint appeared in the eyes of the junior brother in green.

"Disaster."

The senior brother in green robes said, "Although we outnumber him, we may not necessarily be a match for him."

"That's such a pity..."

The junior brother in green robes looked regretful.

"What's a pity?"

A meaningful smile appeared on the face of the senior brother in the green robe.

"Um?"

The junior brother in green robes didn't understand what his senior brother was laughing about.

"We can't take his resources inside the Mystic Tower, but we'll have a chance once we get out."

"That's what the senior brother in the green robe said."

"Won't it be even harder once we get out?"

The junior brother in green robes said, "Once we leave, people from all sides will gather together, making it impossible to seize anything then. Moreover, once we leave the Mystic Master Tower, no one can openly make a move, otherwise it would disrupt the balance of power in the Mystic Master City and make us an easy target for other forces."

"In the past, that was true; even though we were from the Qingge Academy, we couldn't withstand the combined forces of other powers..."

The senior brother in the green robe lowered his voice: "However, this time is different."

"I have received definite information that after the Mystic Tower is sealed off this time, a great upheaval and upheaval will occur within the Mystic City."

"Our Qingge Academy will take the lead, controlling the entire situation in the City of Mystics, forcing all parties to hand over all the hidden fragments they have collected over the years, so that we can concentrate on refining them and obtain the secret to advancing to the tenth rank!"

The senior brother in the green robe was filled with excitement.

"Is this really true?!"

The junior disciple in green robes was shocked: "So, the headmaster will become the first tenth-level master in hundreds of years?"

"good!"

The senior brother in the green robe nodded.

Then, the two looked at each other and burst into laughter.
