"The sword has been forged, and the food is bought; for the next half a month, it's just honest training in the specialized room's Training Secret Realm to help Mr. Husky develop skills! Sword Qi, Blade Storm, Sword Control Technique...I'll study them all."
Having bid farewell to the pig farr, Lu Ran returned to his exclusive room in high spirits. As for Fang Lan, she went to the arena, claiming she wanted to watch for a while and get a grasp of the rules. Lu Ran didn't go with her; he wasn't interested in battles between Beast Trainers, and even in gaming, he was a loyal PVE player.
"Fang Lan also ntioned letting Mr. Husky spar with that Wolf Spider... Ah, forget that; better not to bring it up and discourage her." Inside the room, Lu Ran released Mr. Husky.
"Ao-Wu~~~" Just coming out, Mr. Husky was eager to try and fight with the Wind teor Sword, clearly not having had enough fun at the smithy.
"What's there to battle now? Train for half a month first; our level is still too low. We're soloing, and I bet we wouldn't even get through a simple Beginner's Secret Realm!"
"Wuu wuu!!" Mr. Husky beca anxious, speaking at length.
He ant: Does the Divine Deer Pendant still have energy? Why don't we find a Forest Secret Realm to replenish a bit first? This way, we can train better afterward. It would be troubleso if we got injured during training and had no Power of Healing left!
Lu Ran: ?
"Holy moly." Lu Ran stared at the dog in shock, questioning whether Mr. Husky had been possessed by soone. With such complex logical reasoning, could it really be Mr. Husky's doing? His intelligence seed to spike for the sake of battle.
"You don't have to worry about that; I feel like the Divine Deer Pendant still has plenty of energy," Lu Ran said. The Divine Deer Pendant's energy was like a rechargeable resource, absorbing the natural force of the forest and converting it into the Power of Healing. Although it seed not to have charged much in the Demon Cat Forest, it was still sufficient to heal the daily training injuries of Mr. Husky.
"Wuu wuu~" Mr. Husky felt dejected.
"However." Lu Ran glanced at Mr. Husky, having yet to tell him about the Flowing Fruit. The thing was like a self-harm training thod, and he wasn't sure if Mr. Husky would accept it...
To heal the self-injuries caused by the Flowing Fruit, indeed, the more Power of Healing, the better. Lu Ran wasn't sure if the remaining amount was enough; after all, it was hard to judge how much energy was left. Going to a simple Beginner's Forest Secret Realm to replenish would be acceptable.
They would just replenish the energy without provoking those Level 10 bosses, which should pose no real danger.
Then, they could find a couple of low-level monsters along the way to let Mr. Husky enjoy the Wind teor Sword, satisfying him.
"Alright, I'll indulge you. We'll find a secret realm for you to enjoy, but once we're back, you need to practice swordsmanship with seriously and undergo tough training," Lu Ran said.
"Ao!!" Mr. Husky was thrilled, Boss Lu was really great! Its tail imdiately perked up.
"Then, let pick a secret realm." Lu Ran smiled, walking over to the secret realm column to select a suitable secret realm. Since the goal was to replenish the energy of the Divine Deer Pendant, the secret realm definitely had to be one with a forest environnt.
After looking around, Lu Ran's gaze eventually settled on this secret realm.
[Na: Demon Cat Forest]
[Secret Realm Level: Beginner]
[Difficulty: Simple]
[Challenge Crystal Coins: 200]
Lu Ran's Trial Secret Realm was the Demon Cat Forest, and the realm he was considering was also the Demon Cat Forest. However, the forr only included a small part of the latter and didn't have very powerful creatures.
If they entered again, they might encounter so Level 5 or higher Demon Cats, perhaps even so that had awakened their attributes.
"Let's pick this one again," Lu Ran thought to himself, mainly because they were more familiar with this secret realm's environnt. Plus, the Wooden Scale Fruits there were very good for replenishing vitality, and bringing so back for the half-month special training wasn't a bad idea either.
"The Demon Cat Forest again, what do you think? You've got quite a few grudges to settle here, right?" Lu Ran asked.
"!" Mr. Husky was taken aback, ah, did it? It didn't rember them though.
"Woof!" Never mind, let's assu it did; ti for revenge, and Mr. Husky was raring to go, main attitude being go with the flow!
"Then, this one it is," Lu Ran shrugged.
[Do you wish to spend 200 crystal coins to challenge the Demon Cat Forest Secret Realm?]
Yes.
Lu Ran thought to himself.
[Teleportation countdown 10...9...]
...
Ten seconds later, Lu Ran and Mr. Husky opened their eyes, finding themselves in the familiar environnt, with familiar sounds.
[Teleportation completed.]
[Current Location: Demon Cat Forest (Beginner Secret Realm)]
[Difficulty: Simple]
[Challenge Mission: Slay the leader of the Demon Cat Forest.]
[Secret Realm Introduction: ...]
[Tip①: The maximum stay in a Novice Secret Realm is 8 hours. During this period, Trialists can choose to return anyti. Teleportation requires 10 seconds.]
[Tip②: Receiving the Novice Secret Realm's blessing, Trialists temporarily obtain Data Eye, allowing them to scout for internal resources and creature information within the secret realm.]
[Tip③: ...]
Returning to the Demon Cat Forest, Lu Ran noticed that there was quite a change, such as the label "Novice Trial Secret Realm" being changed to "Novice Secret Realm," and the trial mission "Survive one day" being changed to the challenge mission "Slay the leader of the Demon Cat Forest."
The leader of the Demon Cat Forest was a Level 10 Demon Cat awakened with the Grass Attribute and rich in combat experience, making it difficult to handle. The Level 10 Demon Cat that got slapped to death by the Black Bear on the Divine Pet List definitely wasn't the secret realm's leader.
Anyway, Mr. Husky was only Level 4 now, and since Lu Ran was soloing, it wasn't wise to provoke that creature.
Even though they could teleport away in only 10 seconds, the opponent wasn't alone; who knows how many minions would co to harass them.
"Woof! (Sword, co!)" Inside the secret realm, Mr. Husky looked at Lu Ran.
"Here you go." Lu Ran sighed, taking out the Wind teor Sword and the Wind Cutting Sword from his bag. He gave the forr to Mr. Husky to hold, and he held the latter himself.
Now that they finally had weapons, Lu Ran felt... against the sa Demon Cats as before, he could take one down with a single strike!
"Let's do the sa old routine; we stay put and replenish the pendant's energy for a few hours first before deciding if we want to go deeper to collect resources," Lu Ran said. "In the anti, if any enemies co by, you'll handle them."
Lu Ran looked around and found that this starting point still had so Wooden Scale Fruits available. He planned to harvest them on the spot first.
"Aooh~" Mr. Husky was very obedient this ti, mainly because he had a new toy. After getting the Wind teor Sword, he couldn't wait to start tinkering with it himself.
He was still upset about not being able to release Sword Qi.
anwhile, Lu Ran had taken the Wind Cutting Sword and gone to chop trees, transforming into a powerhouse.
Whether it was Lu Ran and Mr. Husky's luck or not, just a few minutes into the Secret Realm, the bushes started rustling.
This familiar sound...
Sure enough, as Lu Ran picking fruits in the trees and Mr. Husky on the ground looked over, a Demon Cat erged from the bushes.
Race: Demon Cat
Attribute: Unawakened
Species Level: dium Extraordinary
Growth Level: Level 8
"ow aooh!!!" The Demon Cat strode out confidently. This Demon Cat was much stronger than any Demon Cat they had encountered in the Novice Trial Secret Realm. Although it was 4 levels above Mr. Husky, neither Mr. Husky nor Lu Ran showed any sign of weakness.
After all, it was just a Demon Cat without an awakened attribute. Whether its combat power was stronger than the Northeastern Golden Layer or not was still up for debate, and even if it were, it likely wouldn't be by much.
With his equipnt updated, Mr. Husky should be able to defeat it with ease.
"Mr. Husky, just take care of it," Lu Ran, continuing to pick fruits, ordered from above.
Below.
Mr. Husky held the Wind teor Sword in his mouth, his gaze sharp.
The mont it happened, Mr. Husky clenched the Wind teor Sword tightly, and the Power of Wind, channeled and amplified through him, concentrated entirely on the blade!
An enemy had finally arrived.
He wanted to give Lu Ran a surprise.
The mont it happened, Mr. Husky clenched the Wind teor Sword tightly, and the Power of Wind, channeled and amplified through him, concentrated entirely on the blade!
Boom!
Mr. Husky swung the sword, and a remarkable "storm" sprang forth from the blade, like a wind blade or sword energy taking form!
Whoosh!
The Sword Qi swept along with the Power of the Wild Wind, leaving the suddenly appearing Demon Cat utterly astonished. After all, it had never witnessed an attack that flew like this before.
The Wild Wind was upon it.
Before the Demon Cat could react, the wind blade hit it, imdiately cleaving its body in two and causing it to burst open on the ground.
The Sword Qi, having beheaded the Demon Cat, continued to move, tearing through the air towards the back, splitting a large tree in two and finally dissipating as it fell to the ground with a "bang!"
After so deliberate consideration, Mr. Husky finally managed to release Sword Qi.
"Woof!" Mr. Husky turned back to look at Lu Ran in the trees. This should count as an Energy Release Technique, as Sword Qi, right? He had done it!
"This is unbelievable..." anwhile, Lu Ran, who was picking fruits in the tree, was stunned and felt a tingling in his scalp. Just what was the background of this dog? He refused to believe that a Husky could be this powerful!
Others, even with the right talent, would need at least ten days to half a month to grasp the basics of such a technique, yet you mastered it in one or two days? What kind of dog had he picked up exactly?
Lu Ran was amazed by its learning capability but wasn't surprised by Mr. Husky's defeat of the Demon Cat. After all, Master Lin had said that with the Wind teor Sword enhancing the Wind Attribute power, even a Level 10 creature, if hit, would be seriously injured.
At the sa ti.
Mr. Husky's exclusive Contract Card.
Had undergone a small change.
Race: Arctic Dog
Attribute: Wind
Species Level: dium Extraordinary
Growth Level: Level 4
Skills: Sword Qi (Basic skill ford by releasing Wind Attribute energy through an extraordinary sword weapon!)
...
Right then, the most bustling place was actually the Beast Training Plaza.
In a short ti, quite a few Beast Trainers had made it onto the Divine Pet List.
The top 10 spots on the Monarch List had already been filled, the Extraordinary List had 9 Divine Pets listed, and the Monarch List had the fewest listed.
Many were watching for the last spot on the Extraordinary Divine Pet List.
Until...
[Area Announcent: Divine Pet List, Extraordinary Race List updated.]
[Listed Divine Pet, Race: Snowfield Dog Breed.]
[Attribute: Wind]
[Species Level: dium Extraordinary]
[Growth Level: Level 4]
[Beast Trainer: Passerby A]
[Reason for Listing: Evolved variant of the Snowfield Dog Breed, extrely keen, awakened the Power of the Storm, capable of Releasing Sword Energy Across the Air in the Beginner-Level Demon Cat Forest Secret Realm, instantly killing a dium Extraordinary Species, Level 8 Demon Cat by surpassing it by four levels!]
As the Extraordinary List was updated, the entire Beast Training Plaza vibrated, leaving countless newcors dumbfounded. Sword Qi? What the heck?
