Chapter 89: Chapter 89: Chen Yunji, I Have Given You Face, Haven’t I? (Compensatory Extra 3)

Yu Yunxiao, Healing Element Superpower, Seven Stars, with minimal attack power.

Present were also 8 Stars and even 10 Stars powerhouses.

Yet the first to notice something strange about the stone wall was none other than Yu Yunxiao, who, in others’ eyes, could only provide support from the backline.

"Little kitty, you’re amazing." Xiao Jinsheng praised without holding back.

Yu Yunxiao, with her proud little cat ears standing upright, had actually turned red from her neck to her cheeks: "I don’t even know; I just suddenly heard something."

She had been worried about Bai Yan setting up an ambush ahead.

Now, there was another path, safer and straight through the Snow Cliff Ice Sea, leading directly to Cloud Island.

Xiao Jinsheng and the group, one by one, stepped through a hole in the stone wall that Li had carved open and entered the interior of the stone wall.

"Girl, walking with you is like living in luxury." Ming Huaxin excitedly pulled Xiao Jinsheng into a hug.

Staying inside the stone wall was much warmer than the icy, snowy world outside.

The ice-blue minerals cast their glowing light, illuminating the tunnel while also blocking superpower detection.

Knowing this was valuable, Xiao Jinsheng and her group would knock off a piece every ten meters and store it in their Space.

Though they collected a lot, they only took one piece from scattered locations. The lighting remained unaffected, so even if others entered the stone wall later, they’d still have illumination.

However, Xiao Jinsheng’s group was already the last team to enter Silent Valley, and participants navigating through the valley were cautious, not daring to make noise. It was unlikely anyone would discover the secrets inside the stone wall.

The structure of the tunnels was unique, so there was no need to worry about air circulation issues.

Following the map’s route, they spent the ten-day journey entirely inside the tunnels.

Xiao Jinsheng’s group was the first to reach the outer perimeter of Cloud Island.

Pushing open the stone door at the end of the tunnel, they were met with a cliff.

The cliff was shrouded layer upon layer in clouds and mist, and outside the stone door, white jade steps hovered in midair, leading directly to the island partially hidden above the clouds.

[Terminal: You have entered the Cloud Island territory. Verifying participant identities, please proceed to Cloud Sky Garden to wait.]

The terminal sent the message simultaneously to Xiao Jinsheng and the others’ Star Maps.

"Does Mist Continent really have a place like this?" Ming Huaxin exclaimed in surprise.

They boldly stepped onto the white jade steps, ascending step by step toward the Cloud Sky Garden.

Here, exotic flowers reminiscent of gemstones grew abundantly, and the buildings, crafted from jade, exuded an ancient charm.

The drifting mist gave the place an ethereal, celestial-like atmosphere.

It was a stark contrast to the eastern end of the Mist Continent, as though they had entered a different world altogether.

Outside the Cloud Sky Garden, thick snow fell like goose feathers, while below the misty clouds, lofty snow-capped mountains stretched down to a vast, frozen Ice Sea.

But within the garden, the temperature was just right. Xiao Jinsheng immediately removed her furry hat.

She brought up the map, intending to check their location and calculate how far Bai Yan and her group might be, when the terminal sent another notification.

[Terminal: Participant identities, ages, and numbers verified. You may now enter Cloud Island and begin the competition.]

The group was stunned.

They had taken a shortcut and thought they’d have to wait for other participants to arrive before the competition started.

But the terminal’s notification clearly contradicted their assumptions.

[Terminal: The participant family that ranks 1st in this competition may make one wish to the terminal.]

[Terminal: Families ranked 2nd to 5th will receive a guaranteed 10 Stars equipment lottery.]

[Terminal: Families ranked 6th to 10th will receive a guaranteed 8 Stars equipment lottery.]

[Terminal: The competition in this event is family-based. Participants enter Cloud Island to collect resources. Points for different resources are categorized into five tiers: ten points, one hundred points, one thousand points, ten thousand points, and hidden points. Hidden points yield random point values, with an upper limit of one million points.]

[Terminal: Important notes – The competition duration is 30 days. Time is calculated individually for each family. Collected resources do not regenerate. Rankings are determined by total points.]

[Terminal: Resources collected on Cloud Island may be exchanged for points. After the event concludes, points can be exchanged for Star Stones.]

[Terminal: Participants will receive Points Bracelets, which can evaluate the point value of resources, track the family’s total points, view individual family member contributions, and monitor the family-specific competition countdown.]

Excited after reading the terminal’s tasks, the group celebrated.

Arriving early truly had its perks.

With resources not regenerating, starting the competition four or five days ahead of others gave them a significant advantage.

Seizing the upper hand, they moved swiftly, passing through Cloud Sky Garden and entering Cloud Island.

As soon as they set foot on Cloud Island, the Points Bracelets began counting down.

Now competitors, Ming Huaxin naturally couldn’t linger with Xiao Jinsheng any longer.

The two parted ways at the Cloud Island entrance, choosing different directions.

With the competition officially underway, Xiao Jinsheng began using the Points Bracelet to scan her surroundings.

Before long, the Points Bracelet provided some results:

[Cloud Mist Fruit, one piece valued at 10 points]

[White Jade, one pound valued at 10 points]

[Forget-Worry Grass, one plant valued at 10 points]

[Purple Ring Poison Scorpion, one valued at 100 points]

Scanning around, ninety-nine percent of the resources were low-value items worth 10 points each.

Picking a few at random, Xiao Jinsheng ventured deeper into Cloud Island.

Meanwhile, Bai Yan’s group remained trapped at Snow Cliff Ice Sea.

The Snow Cliff area was split in two by the Ice Sea.

A bridge once connected the two sides, but just as Bai Yan’s team approached it, the bridge collapsed.

The Ice Sea below exuded a chilling aura and was filled with mutant beasts averaging Seven Stars in power, swimming ominously.

Crossing the sea without the bridge meant diving into the icy waters and engaging in combat with the mutant beasts.

But the noise from fighting would likely trigger avalanches from the surrounding snowy mountains.

For the moment, the group found themselves stuck at the Snow Cliff Ice Sea.

Knowing there were still days before the competition officially began, they were anxious but not overly panicked.

After all, anyone else not yet here was most likely still wandering the depths of Silent Valley.

Back on Cloud Island, Xiao Jinsheng’s group had already been competing for an hour. As they journeyed deeper, they noticed the peculiar environment of the island.

It reminded Xiao Jinsheng of her Space.

Each mountain seemed like its own small territory, even varying by season.

One moment, they might be walking through a scorching summer mountain, only to find snow swirling on the very next one, with temperatures plummeting sharply.

Staring at the snowy mountain ahead, Xiao Jinsheng reluctantly put her cozy hat back on.

"I think this Cloud Island was created by the terminal, like a Space," she speculated.

Otherwise, how could the island’s environments and seasonal layouts so closely resemble her Space?

The small region they had first entered had the warmth of early summer.

Now, looming before them was a wintery snow mountain.

Though frigid, the resources within the snow mountain were undoubtedly more valuable than those elsewhere.

Upon entering, they immediately came across an orchid-like plant weighed down by snow, valued at 1,000 points.

Without hesitation, Xiao Jinsheng plucked it and stored it in her Space.

The seven Beast Husbands focused on gathering high-value resources, while Xiao Jinsheng followed behind them, storing everything in her Space.

Meanwhile, those trapped at Snow Cliff Ice Sea continued their tense standoff with the mutant beasts in the icy waters.

Deep within Cloud Island, atop Nanzhu Mountain.

A Nine-tailed White Fox took on human form, barefoot in the snow, his robes fluttering as he stepped briskly into a bamboo house amidst the snowy scenery.

He tossed aside the folding fan in his hand, leaned into the soft cushions, and smirked, "Guess what I just did?"

Sitting before him was a white-robed, silver-haired man.

His eyes were concealed beneath white silk, his face cold and stern as he listened to the sound of the snow outside, silently.

"I blew up the bridge at Snow Cliff Ice Sea," the Nine-tailed White Fox said, fanning himself leisurely. "Doing a good deed a day—I’m starting to fall in love with myself."

"Narcissism is a disease," the silver-haired man replied indifferently as the cold wind from outside swept through, lifting the long silver strands of his hair.

The Nine-tailed White Fox’s smile faltered. "Chen Yunji, do you really think I won’t teach you a lesson?"
