God of Pets

Chapter 871 Dragon Enters the Sea
After much deliberation, Chen Guan decided that he needed to find a scapegoat to test the waters first.

He cultivated his own secret law, modifying it to the point that "any creature whose head has been touched by his palm will have its presence reduced to zero in the eyes of all other creatures, and will be completely ignored."

After revising his secret law, Chen Guan left the ring space, exited the Ji family city, and arrived at the Tearful Desert, where he stroked the head of a sand scorpion.

Chen Guan felt that the sand scorpion hadn't changed much, so he summoned his spirit pets and asked them to try and see if they could find the sand scorpion.

The mysterious spirits such as Zhan Guo, Gui Yan, and Yan Zhi could not see the existence of the sand scorpion and could not detect it at all.

Sengoku's keen sense of smell and his demonic eye technique were useless; he couldn't find the sand scorpion no matter what he did.

Chen Guan was overjoyed: "In that case, wouldn't I be able to make all my pets have low visibility, which is equivalent to giving them an invisibility buff? Wouldn't it be a piece of cake to ambush high-level spirits in the future?"

However, when Chen Guanmingfei summoned it, Mingfei immediately noticed the Sand Scorpion, which had a very low presence.

This made Chen Guan realize that having a low profile is not an invincible ability; there are still some abilities that can counter it.

After numerous tests, Chen Guan discovered that his secret law was not permanent and could only be maintained for a period of time.

The duration of the effect is related to the amount of vital energy Chen Guan consumes when using the secret technique. The more vital energy he consumes, the lower the presence of the creature being stroked on his head, and the longer the effect lasts.

Among Chen Guan's own pets, two are able to ignore this low-presence ability: Mingfei and the paper doll. They are both unaffected.

Chen Guan captured a six-sense spirit called "Little Grass Sprite," brought it into his ring space, and then went to the cave.

I glanced through the binoculars and discovered that the big-headed doll was on duty today.

Chen Guan carefully turned on the switch next to the telescope, where there was a gap leading to the outside of the cave.

The outside was concealed by various rare and precious materials, so it was impossible to tell anything from them.

He threw the little grass sprite directly out through the gap, and then immediately turned the switch off.

This thing was discovered, and those people had a hard time guessing where it came from.

The little grass sprite, though called a sprite, actually looks more like a puppet. However, this puppet has green bark as clothing, leaves as hair, and branches as limbs, so it doesn't look particularly cute.

The Sixth Sense Grass Sprite isn't very strong in combat; its abilities are mostly support-type.

After Chen Guan threw it out, he originally wanted to use the little grass spirit to test whether it would be seen by those people.

But after the little grass fairy went out, her body immediately swelled up.

"Oh no!" Chen Guan hadn't expected the little grass sprite to be so sensitive to energy.

As soon as it went outside and came into contact with the cloud-like and misty primordial energy, its body immediately underwent drastic changes.

Its branches and leaves stretched out, and a large amount of vital energy was absorbed into its body.

In just a short while, the little grass sprite's body grew larger and it even leveled up.

The energy surged here, causing such a commotion, but the big-headed baby over there didn't notice at all, still staring at the Jade Lone Sword.

Chen Guan was overjoyed: "He couldn't even notice such a big commotion. It seems my secret law has been successfully implemented."

The little grass sprite seemed to have gone from hell to heaven, floating in the sky, following the clouds and mist, constantly absorbing the pure energy to evolve itself.

Before long, the little grass sprite actually reached the peak of the 6th awakening and began its seventh awakening.

"With such a big commotion from the awakening of the secret law... it's hard to go unnoticed..." Chen Guan was worried again. To his surprise, even with the grass sprite's awakening of the secret law, the big-headed doll didn't even glance at it.

The secret rules that Chen Guan revised were more effective than he had imagined.

Aside from beings with special abilities like Mingfei and paper dolls, it seems that ordinary creatures truly cannot detect beings blessed by the secret law.

Chen Guan dared not be careless, letting the little grass spirit absorb energy and grow rapidly outside, waiting for the other three to come and take over.

The secret he bestowed upon the grass spirit was strong enough to sustain it until all four of them took turns.

Chen Guan watched as the people came one by one, but none of them noticed the little grass fairy. When it was finally the women's turn to be on duty, Chen Guan was certain that these people indeed could not see the little grass fairy.

With that, Chen Guan was completely relieved.

However, he still had no intention of going out on his own. He pulled Xiaobai out and discussed it with her for a while. Finally, Xiaobai agreed to go outside and fetch liquid energy for him.

Chen Guan imbued Xiaobai with a secret power, allowing it to slip through the crack and head towards the pool where the woman was.

Chen Guan watched Xiao Bai nervously. Xiao Bai had already absorbed the energy in the cave, so when it came into contact with the energy outside, it wasn't as excited as the little grass spirit.

It landed in the pool, ignoring the woman soaking in it, and then, enveloped in some liquid energy, flew up.

Seeing the ripples in the pool, Chen Guan frowned nervously. Fortunately, the woman didn't seem to notice anything, soaking in the liquid energy while keeping an eye on the Jade Lone Sword.

Little White flew back, enveloped in liquid elemental energy, and squeezed in through the gap.

Its body can change shape at will, making it really difficult for an ordinary pet to squeeze in.

"Come on, give me the liquid elemental energy inside," Chen Guan said quickly.

Xiao Bai flew to the top of Chen Guan's head, and the liquid elemental energy inside fell like raindrops.

Chen Guan quickly activated the first secret technique, absorbing all the liquid primordial energy into his body. Sure enough, he felt different from before, with his primordial energy increasing significantly.

Chen Guan cultivated under Xiao Bai, letting Xiao Bai slowly and continuously sprinkle liquid elemental energy onto his body.

Once the liquid vital energy inside Xiaobai is completely depleted, Chen Guan will then imbue it with a secret law, allowing it to go out and retrieve more.

Another month passed, and Chen Guan's level, which had remained stagnant for so long, finally rose another level.

However, even this pace of upgrades could not meet Chen Guan's needs.

He needs resources for his own cultivation, and the secret realm also needs resources. Relying solely on Xiaobai bringing back liquid elemental energy is simply not enough to meet his needs.

During this period, Chen Guan used all the liquid elemental energy that Xiao Bai brought back to upgrade himself. He was unable to obtain any elemental energy from the secret realm, and it remained a tiny amount.

"The spiritual energy outside is unimaginably abundant. Since those four people can't detect my secret spirit enhanced by the secret law, they certainly can't detect me either. I'll just go out and absorb the spiritual energy directly; it's much better than going through all this trouble." With this thought in mind, Chen Guan made up his mind.

He immediately cast a spell on himself, ran his hand over the top of his head, removed the telescope, climbed out of the hole, and finally restored it to its original state.

Chen Guan flew cautiously through the air, and only felt relieved when he saw that the big-headed doll on duty today paid no attention to him.

The energy outside was much denser than inside the cave, no wonder the little grass sprite leveled up like crazy as soon as it came out.

At this moment, Chen Guan felt like a dragon entering the sea or a tiger falling into a flock of sheep, experiencing immense joy as he absorbed the vital energy of heaven and earth while flying towards the mountain peak with the pool.
