As a level 80 Gold Secret Realm belonging to one of Divine Oracle's rare races, even the five Snake Clan dungeons surrounding the waters of Snake King Island shown on the map were all at least level 75.
A secret realm guarded by five dungeons.
It made Lin Mo realize, "It looks like getting into Snake King Island and finding the map fragment for the Divine Forging Cauldron won't be easy."
"This is going to be a huge undertaking."
Just one map fragment was already so difficult to obtain.
It was easy to imagine how hard it would be to gather all five fragments, determine the Divine Forging Cauldron's location, and then find it.
But instead, it only ignited Lin Mo's fighting spirit even more.
Even if all he got out of it was finding the Divine Forging Cauldron and reforging the complete Eternal Set for the Divine Descent Seraph, Siya, he would still be full of motivation.
What's more, searching for the map fragments wasn't a thankless job.
"If every fragment is sealed inside a Gold Secret Realm of a rare race, then finding the Divine Forging Cauldron also means clearing five Rare Gold Secret Realms."
"After clearing each secret realm, Ning Xi's talent boosts the rewards tenfold."
That was equivalent to claiming the rewards from fifty Rare Gold Secret Realms.
And he would also get the Eternal Set for Siya.
It was perfect.
Lin Mo looked at Ning Xi.
"Xiao Xi, are you ready?"
Ning Xi looked up, her face full of confusion.
"Ready for what?"
Lin Mo said happily, "By the time this treasure hunt is over, our net worth will go from one billion to ten billion. A hundred billion."
"By then, I'll be the richest man in the world, and you'll be the wife of the richest man in the world."
Ning Xi couldn't help laughing.
"Don't laugh! I'm serious! I'm not joking!"
"Okay!", Ning Xi smiled, "Whether we become rich or not isn't important. What's important is that I can be with you, Brother Lin Mo."
The more Ning Xi said that, the stronger Lin Mo's desire to succeed became!
Because Ning Xi didn't know what the future held.
Maybe in her eyes, money really didn't matter. As long as she could stay with Lin Mo, living happily together every day, that was her greatest wish.
But Lin Mo knew very well: the peaceful life Ning Xi longed for could only be protected through overwhelming strength.
"I need to accumulate as much money as possible before Divine Oracle descends. Once the game opens its recharge system, I'll put every cent into it."
"That way, the moment Divine Oracle descends, I'll have enough starting capital to quickly build an empire. Xiao Xi, then I'll be able to protect you for the rest of your life."
"Even if SSS-rank talent holders or SSS-rank hidden class players from other countries invade, I won't let them hurt you in the slightest."
He recalled his previous life.
As the number one female Emperor of the Dargon Nation server, Ning Xi had not only needed to defend Dargon Nation from foreign enemies, but also guard against traitors and rebels from within.
Enemies on every side.
She had carried all the responsibility and pressure alone.
Before Lin Mo was reborn, as just an ordinary civilian, he had seen the Empress Xiyue nearly collapse more than once.
Perhaps on the original timeline before his first rebirth, the Ning Xi of the future had already fallen.
Looking at Ning Xi beside him, Lin Mo's gaze became resolute.
"This time, you won't be alone."
With that thought, Lin Mo returned to the present.
Now that he knew Snake King Island would be a massive project that couldn't be cleared anytime soon, he decided to focus on easier tasks first.
For example, the Eternal Heart had already been repaired, so they could return to the Divine Tomb dungeon and loot the treasure chests.
Next, they also had to visit the Divine Capital to obtain the Divine Water.
And there was also the second-stage advancement quest for his SSS-rank hidden class, Ghost Emperor.
These were all his current priorities.
"Then before heading to Snake King Island, let's finish all of these first."
So Lin Mo decided to take Ning Xi to clear the Divine Tomb first.
More and more players in Inferno City had reached Silver rank and now met the entry requirement for the Divine Tomb dungeon.
Although, given the difficulty of the rare hidden dungeon Divine Tomb, ordinary players would only manage to obtain a few treasure chests even if they entered.
Even if each party only got one chest, with ten million players in Inferno City, divided into parties of five, there could be up to two million teams.
That would be enough to strip the entire Divine Tomb clean in no time.
So before things reached that point, he had to hurry and loot the treasure chests.
After all, during his previous run, the treasure chests from the Divine Tomb had earned Lin Mo goods worth as much as 1.7 billion yuan.
And that had only been about one-tenth of all the treasure chests in the dungeon.
If he could take all the remaining ones, he wouldn't even need to clear Snake King Island.
He would instantly become a billionaire with a fortune of over one hundred billion yuan.
There was no helping it.
The temptation was simply too great.
Lin Mo couldn't resist it at all.
So he immediately sent messages to Ling Xiao, Qin Feng, and Xia Wanwan.
"Meet at the Divine Tomb dungeon."
The buff Lin Mo had received for being the first to clear the Divine Tomb, doubling the number of treasure chests rewarded for the next two clears, only worked with the original team.
Although Siya had guaranteed that she could quickly absorb the treasure chests using the Eternal Heart, having the buff made things even more reliable.
Soon, the three of them replied one after another.
"Got it!"
"We'll be there soon!"
After notifying everyone, Lin Mo and Ning Xi stocked up on some mana potions at the pharmacy.
Then they set off for the Divine Tomb dungeon.
Ever since reaching Gold rank after winning today's competition at midnight, Lin Mo had immediately rushed to the Dark Dungeon.
After finishing everything there, he had logged off right away.
He hadn't even had time to enjoy the benefits of reaching Gold rank.
So while heading toward the Divine Tomb dungeon, Lin Mo opened the newly unlocked Points Shop to see if there was anything worth upgrading.

Everything in the shop was genuinely valuable.
For ordinary players at this stage, every single item in the Gold Shop was something they dreamed of obtaining.
But for Lin Mo, who possessed the SSS-rank talent Soul Flame, only one item caught his eye.
