Beast Tamer: The pet is just to help me build a bond

Chapter 218 Secret Realm Upgrade [Subscription Request]

Pfft!
Orochimaru dived into the water, splashing the icy blue water and creating ripples.

It was pitch dark in the cold pond, and it was almost impossible to see anything, but Orochimaru's golden vertical pupils were quite magical, and he could barely see some of the surrounding environment.

The cold pool of water exuded endless chill, and there seemed to be no other living creatures.

This is no wonder. Although the water in the cold pond is not frozen, the temperature is far below zero. Such living conditions are really too harsh.

The snake scales all over Orochimaru's body have a special ability to resist water pressure, but as the depth of the dive increases, it gradually feels more and more pressure.

Under this powerful pressure, the special energy in the pool of water turned into silver needles that continuously squeezed into its body, causing waves of tingling pain all over its body.

What made Orochimaru slightly happy was that along with the waves of tingling, he felt the blood around him begin to slowly boil, and he felt a kind of joy coming from deep in his blood.

It hurts and it's happy.

After an unknown amount of time, when it could no longer withstand the strong pressure of the water, it finally dived to the bottom of the pool.

Unlike the dark environment before, white light appeared at the bottom of the pool where there was no light source.

Swimming along the white light, Orochimaru noticed that the temperature around him was getting lower and lower. Although the surrounding area was still liquid, it was hardly flowing.

Moreover, as it gradually approached the white light, it found that its body was gradually freezing.

After diving several meters deeper, a white lotus finally appeared in Orochimaru's sight.

The white jade petals and ice-blue leaves look like crystal clear ice sculptures at first glance.

The moment he saw the Snow Lotus of Creation, an instinct to devour it surged from deep in Orochimaru's blood.

However, the biting cold and strong water pressure woke it up.

It stared at the Creation Snow Lotus with wide eyes for two seconds before turning its body and swimming upwards.

puff!
After jumping out of the cold pool, Orochimaru shook his body to get rid of all the cold liquid around him, and then exhaled a breath of cold air fiercely.

Chen Wen stepped forward and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"

"Moo~"

Orochimaru shook his head and began to describe the underwater scene to Chen Wen.

After listening to Orochimaru's story, Chen Wen turned to Gu Zexi and said with a smile: "It should be correct, there is indeed a white lotus at the bottom of the pond."

When Gu Zexi heard this, a look of joy suddenly appeared on his usually cold face.

"Then I summoned the teacher!"

As he spoke, Chen Wen mobilized his mental power and injected it into the protective belt.

The next moment, a condensed spiritual energy surged out from the protective belt, and in an instant formed a translucent protective shield around him.

At the same time, the guardian belt sent out a special signal.

A moment later, a flying bird with colorful wings suddenly appeared in the cave.

"叽～叽～"

Neither Chen Wen nor Gu Zexi could understand the language of the invisible bird, but they both knew that it was the teacher's detection pet.

Patting his protective belt, Chen Wen said, "When students Chen Wen and Gu Zexi were clearing out the Snow Wolf's den, they discovered the high-level spiritual plant, the Creation Snow Lotus. They were afraid of destroying its growth environment, so they used a distress signal to contact the teacher."

After listening to Chen Wen's explanation, the invisible bird hovered in the air for a while.

It cast several wind blades at the ground, and then created a whirlwind.

call--

After the whirlwind, two Chinese characters appeared on the ground.

"Wait!"

Looking at the exquisite calligraphy, Chen Wen gave a thumbs up and said, "Great!"

Taking this opportunity, Chen Wen taught Po and Orochimaru, "Look at other people's pets. They can write. You should work hard."

Upon hearing this, Po shook his head and whined a few times in dissatisfaction.

It can also cook. Is it proud?

Orochimaru nodded obediently. He was interested in reading and learning to read.

After a while, the treasure-hunting dog suddenly barked.

"coming?"

Chen Wen looked towards the cave entrance in surprise.

This place is not close to the stronghold, and he really wants to know how Han Mo managed to get there in such a short time.

call--

A strong gust of wind suddenly blew in from the passage, forcing Gu Zexi to lean forward and put out his hands to block the wind and sand.

Chen Wen also narrowed his eyes.

After the strong wind, a huge black shadow swooshed into the cave.

Chen Wen opened his eyes wide and saw a lion-shaped pet flying in, with Han Mo, Jin Xiaoyue and the strange middle-aged man on its broad back. This pet had distinct features, with a lion's body and an eagle's head, and a pair of broad wings on its back, which made it easy for others to recognize its identity at a glance.

"Griffin? No wonder it got here so quickly."

The griffin is as fast as the wind, and the distance between the stronghold and the snow-capped mountains is nothing to it.

The three of them jumped off the griffin's back and arrived next to Chen Wen and the others in just a few steps.

The strange middle-aged man is named Zheng Bai, an elite animal breeder stationed in the secret realm.

After nodding slightly and greeting the two of them, Zheng Bai summoned his pet and began to test the cold pond.

After a moment, his face was filled with smiles.

Seeing this, Chen Wen asked with a smile, "Is it the Creation Snow Lotus?"

"Yes!"

Zheng Bai nodded affirmatively, "Although it is an immature Creation Snow Lotus, it is indeed a genuine Creation Snow Lotus."

"Immature?"

Zheng Bai took the pet back to the beast control space and explained, "This snow lotus has just bloomed for a short time. It hasn't even produced the lotus seeds yet, so it can't be considered mature."

Chen Wen was a little disappointed when he heard this, and then asked, "How many credits is that worth?"

Zheng Bai thought for a moment and said, "Probably about 6,000 to 7,000 credits..."

"Only six or seven thousand?!"

Chen Wen was shocked at first, and then felt a little bit cheated.

Gu Zexi also frowned when he heard this.

There are a lot of ice stones, bone-hardening cold springs, and the high-level spiritual plant Creation Snow Lotus in the cave. There must be more than six or seven thousand of them, right?

Seeing this, Han Mo said coldly: "Do you think the Snowfield Secret Realm is a wild secret realm?"

"Uh……"

Chen Wen was stunned when he heard this, and then he suddenly realized.

After all, the Snowfield Secret Realm is a secret realm controlled by Sichuan University, and most of the dangers in it have been eliminated by Sichuan University.

The reason why there are monsters and a large amount of resources left inside is not because Sichuan University is incapable of clearing out the monsters and searching for resources, but it is just left for students to gain experience.

If it weren't for Chen Wen and his team, perhaps the Creation Snow Lotus would have been discovered during a routine inspection.

Jin Xiaoyue was afraid that the two students would feel resentful, so she patiently explained, "Because this is a secret realm controlled by the school, the points gained from exploring and discovering it are not many.

You may think that there are a lot of resources in the cave.

But ice stones need to be mined and transported, the bone-quenching cold spring is not in constant supply, and the Creation Snow Lotus requires a lot of time and resources to mature..."

Listening to Jin Xiaoyue's explanation, Chen Wen nodded repeatedly and said, "I understand. I believe in the school."

Gu Zexi also said: "I believe in the school, too."

Han Mo said: "You can go now. The credits will be distributed to you after you finish your training in the secret realm."

"Ok!"

Chen Wen and Gu Zexi nodded and quickly left the Snow Wolf Cave.

Inside the cave.

Watching Chen Wen's departing figure, Zheng Bai praised, "Your Combat Department has really received a good talent this time! They just entered school, but they slaughtered monsters like slaughtering dogs. Twenty or thirty snow wolves were killed by just the two of them!"

Jin Xiaoyue also sighed: "The quality of the new students in the Combat Department this year is indeed very high. Not to mention Chen Wen, Gu Zexi, Yue Chen, Yan Jin, Yu Xiao and others are all very strong. They have already reached the level of second-year students when they first entered school."

Han Mo said calmly: "It still needs to be honed!"

Hearing this, Zheng Bai shook his head speechlessly.

The three of them chatted for a while, and Jin Xiaoyue suddenly asked: "The requirements for spiritual energy of the Creation Snow Lotus are extremely high. Logically speaking, this kind of spiritual plant will not appear in the Bronze-level secret realm, right?"

Zheng Bai nodded and said, "You are right, but the spiritual energy of the Snowfield Secret Realm has become increasingly dense in recent years, and it is not far from the Silver Level Secret Realm..."

At this point, his brows couldn't help but frown.

Han Mo said in a deep voice: "The Snowfield Secret Realm may need to be upgraded."

Jin Xiaoyue's face turned pale when she heard this, and she quickly said, "Teacher Han, let's notify the principal as soon as possible."

Han Mo said calmly: "I will notify you. There is no unusual movement in the forbidden area, so there should be enough time to prepare, but I don't think we can find many people."

Hearing this, Zheng Bai suggested to Han Mo: "Old Han, end the secret realm training. When the secret realm is upgraded, a large number of monsters will descend, which is too dangerous for the freshmen."

Han Mo said: "The monsters mainly descended in the forbidden area, and it is still far from the secret realm upgrade."

Jin Xiaoyue showed a worried look on her face. "But given the current environment of the Snowfield Secret Realm, there might be some pets that have secretly become elite extraordinary-level magical beasts. It would be dangerous if students encountered them."

Han Mo said: "Snow Mountain No. 1 and Snow Mountain No. 2 are often cleared by students, so it is impossible for any monsters to become elite extraordinary beings. As for Snow Mountain No. 3..."

After a pause, he continued, "It's a long way away, and basically no one goes there."
