Chapter 694: Legendary Secret Realm? Venerable Ten Thousand Mountains?
Chapter 694: Legendary Secret Realm? Venerable Ten Thousand Mountains?
It was now June.
At the beginning of June, although the various academies had not yet dismissed for the holidays, it was undeniable that with Su Ping's growing reputation and the numerous promotions, the only drawback of the Core of Ten Thousand Spirits was its high fees. As a result, the number of guests at the Core of Ten Thousand Spirits was never a concern or a worry, no matter the time.
This was true even now.
Thus, when the terrifying sound echoed, it drew the attention of countless guests at the Core of Ten Thousand Spirits.
The sound was earth-shattering, and the sudden burst of energy even triggered the unrest of several powerful beings within the Core of Ten Thousand Spirits.
At this moment, many high-level Beast Masters, who could sense the terrifying auras, finally understood just how many powerful entities were hidden within the Core of Ten Thousand Spirits.
At this moment, the auras of at least five or six Holy Spirit-level pet beasts erupted.
There were also numerous other Beast Masters present.
The scene almost made them think that the Beast Masters from across the ocean and other nations had finally lost their patience and invaded.
There was no way around it; this time, the disturbance caused by the appearance of the secret realm was truly massive.
It was so significant that Su Ping sensed something was amiss and, upon looking, was momentarily stunned.
He had experienced many secret realms before.
Without mentioning others, the secret realm within the Tomb of the Sky was incomparable to any other.
After all, it was designed and created by the God of the Underworld, a true Mythical-level entity.
Its uniqueness was unparalleled by the remnants left behind by various deceased Beast Masters.
However, the current secret realm reminded Su Ping of the one he had encountered in the Shattered Rock Mountains.
Back then, Huang Tianbing almost perished there, and the secret realm nearly wiped out the entire Imperial Astronomical Bureau. Fortunately, the Spatial-Type Holy Spirit-level pet beast, the Spatial Saint, arrived and suppressed and sealed the realm, then transferred the entrance to a nearby area.
Thinking about this, a glint of excitement flashed in Su Ping's eyes.
The secret realm in the Shattered Rock Mountains?
Could it be the same one where the giant stone spirit Taishan and Fatty's core fell?
Previously, it was analyzed that Fatty's origin was from a Holy Spirit-level resource, the core of the Imaginary Stone ore vein.
Originally, as an elemental core of this kind, if it had been born normally, it would have at least been a Sovereign or Holy Spirit-level Spirit-Type elemental pet beast.
However, it was collected by the inexperienced staff of Tianyun Group, who erased its potential for further development and injected mechanical data to activate it electromagnetically, turning it into a mechanical core with greatly diminished value.
Moreover, due to its powerful spirit power, Fatty could not connect its mechanical core to an ordinary steel body, thus unable to fully utilize the capabilities of a mechanical pet beast, rendering it virtually useless.
If not for Su Ping and his unique abilities, Fatty would have likely spent its entire life as an artificial intelligence system in a smart car that wasn't even a true mechanical pet beast.
However, with Su Ping's help, Fatty reached its current level, not only completing its first evolution but also accidentally completing the first stage of the evolution of the Machine God core.
Now, with the completion of the cloud server carving, equivalent to the second stage of cultivation, Su Ping was waiting for the third stage to begin.
The third stage of cultivation required a large amount of the original body of mechanical cores, specifically the Imaginary Stone.
Holy Spirit-level resources were impossible to find in such quantities.
However, the appearance of this secret realm gave Su Ping hope.
According to Fatty's information and previous analysis, the Imaginary Stone ore vein that dropped the core was indeed Fatty's original body, and since it dropped from the core of the ore vein, there should be some amount of it.
Although even a Holy Spirit-level resource, even if it formed an ore vein, couldn't possibly have the same massive quantities as ordinary resources—Sovereign or Emperor-level resources might only have a few tons or a few hundred kilograms at most, which were already rare—there should still be some quantity.
If it could form an ore vein, there should be at least a hundred or so pieces, right?
However, Su Ping also knew that this idea was quite luxurious and almost impossible.
After all, it was a Holy Spirit-level resource. Even for a Holy Spirit-level Beast Master, and even one with the corresponding attribute, it would be extremely difficult to find such quantities, even if the resources within the secret realm were extremely abundant and the Beast Master had been dead for many years. But still, what if?
He gazed at the secret realm, and without a second thought, he beckoned, summoning countless pet beasts to his side. He immediately cast the levitation spell and flew over in an instant.
Arriving at the entrance of the secret realm, he didn’t rush to enter. Almost immediately, several figures appeared, having followed from just ten kilometers away. Yun Sheng, Yu Sheng, Zhu Hong, Liu Fuhai, Meng Yan, and others all looked curiously at the newly emerged secret realm.
None of them had expected that a secret realm could appear in the Core of Ten Thousand Spirits!
"Su Ping, this secret realm is...?"
In response to Yu Sheng’s question, Su Ping didn’t hold back and said straightforwardly:
"Ancestor Mirror of the Dong family once transferred a secret realm entrance to me. This secret realm was originally located in the rubble mountains at the edge of Jianghai Province, and the entrance was extremely unstable. The spatial fluctuations caused my former Jiaolong Hao to be destroyed there.
So, Saint Mirror gave this to me as compensation from the Astronomical Bureau."
His words were reasonable and well-supported, and the others nodded in agreement.
After all, a secret realm, while unimaginably valuable to an individual, wasn’t much to the people present. Moreover, in the desolate rubble mountains, this thing was essentially unclaimed. Anything unclaimed naturally belonged to the Dragon Country.
However, what exactly was inside this secret realm? Su Ping recalled the reason for Fatty’s mutation as observed through the Core of Ten Thousand Spirits. If he remembered correctly, the formation of the Illusion Stone mine required a spatial characteristic known as 'Peak of Ten Thousand Mountains.'
While he was well-versed in pet beasts, he hadn’t really delved into the spatial characteristics of Beastmasters, especially those of Earth or Metal attributes. So, he turned to the others:
"Seniors, what is the spatial characteristic of the 'Peak of Ten Thousand Mountains'?"
"Peak of Ten Thousand Mountains?" Everyone present was momentarily stunned, but after a pause, Zhu Hong spoke up:
"Ahem, the 'Peak of Ten Thousand Mountains' is an Earth attribute resource characteristic. This spatial characteristic is extremely unique and powerful. It can transform all other elements within a Beastmaster’s space into Earth elements.
It can turn a Beastmaster’s space into a series of towering mountains, and with the accumulation of energy, these peaks will continue to grow taller and taller! Eventually, the space itself will rise in height.
However, due to its powerful effects, this spatial characteristic is extremely rare. Furthermore, ordinary Beastmasters can’t afford to sustain such a characteristic. Therefore, historically, there have been very few recorded cases of Beastmasters possessing this spatial characteristic!"
Zhu Hong’s words left Su Ping somewhat surprised as he looked at the massive entrance to the secret realm. The entrance was several dozen meters high and, although it had gradually stabilized and shrunk to about ten meters, it still testified to the vastness of the secret realm. No wonder it had been so unstable, with spatial fissures causing issues for the Jiaolong Hao.
The 'Peak of Ten Thousand Mountains' characteristic was indeed formidable.
After some thought, Su Ping was about to step into the secret realm. However, the others present immediately and unanimously said:
"No!"
Su Ping understood their caution. He wasn’t a reckless person either and didn’t rush in. Instead, he stood at the entrance.
Based on his experience, after a secret realm entrance officially appeared, there would be some special prompts.
If it was a legacy-type secret realm, like the one encountered by Yu Liangqing, it would directly inform the entering Beastmasters. If it wasn’t a legacy-type, there would be no response.
Now, with this sudden appearance of a secret realm, he was naturally curious about its purpose.
As Su Ping had anticipated, the moment he approached the secret realm, a venerable and aged voice echoed. The voice wasn’t confined to the area; it resonated powerfully, audible for several dozen miles around:
【Beastmasters may enter the Mountain Secret Realm. Successfully reaching the peak within the Mountain Secret Realm will grant you the legacy of the Respected Ten Thousand Mountains! There are no restrictions on the strength of those who enter! Additionally, a climbing leaderboard will be set up outside the secret realm for future generations to observe!】
This voice echoed through the area, covering several dozen miles, and it could be heard in places like the location of the Core of Ten Thousand Spirits and the nearby Lin Zhou Advanced Academy.
However, the content it conveyed was something no one present had anticipated.
Especially the name of the inheritance it mentioned.
"Ten Thousand Mountain Ancestor?"
Ancestor!
This title, like Water Ancestor and Flame Ancestor, was typically used to refer to a Legend Grade existence in the ancient Petemon Trainer era.
In other words, this was truly a legacy from a Legend Grade Mystery Realm?
Su Ping blinked. Although he had encountered many Legend Grade existences before, having one right in front of him still left him somewhat bewildered.
Back then, in the Rock Fragment Mountains, he and the others had all sensed the extraordinary nature of this Mystery Realm.
But they never imagined it would be this kind of Mystery Realm.
As for the Ten Thousand Mountain Ancestor?
He thought for a moment but couldn't pinpoint exactly who it was.
Clearly, it was Zhu Hong who answered the question for everyone, including Su Ping, who was just as bewildered:
"Ten Thousand Mountain Ancestor was a Legend Grade existence representing the Rock Clan during the Seven Emperors period, about four thousand years ago, before the establishment of the Great Qian Dynasty, when the tribal wars were raging."
That history was too distant.
However, some of the people present still knew about it.
Yun Sheng narrowed his eyes: "Is this the tribe that left the battle relics in the huge stone pit in the western region?"
"Yes! Back then, the Rock Tribe was one of the stronger tribes. Besides the Ten Thousand Mountain Ancestor, there was also the Legend Grade existence, the Giant Stone Mountain God, guarding it. However, something unknown happened later.
The Wind Tribe and the Thunder Tribe joined forces to destroy the Rock Tribe, breaking the balance of the time. Eventually, it evolved into a water and fire conflict, with the Great Qian, supported by Flame Ancestor, emerging victorious and unifying the Nine Provinces.
The main battlefield of that battle is now the giant stone pit ruins, two hundred kilometers east of Western Sea Province," Zhu Hong continued to explain.
However, Su Ping wasn't particularly interested in this history.
He had no deep interest in the love, hate, and conflicts of the ancient tribes. What he was interested in was the benefits of this inheritance Mystery Realm!
Most importantly, whether it contained the crucial Imaginary Stone vein.
More importantly, such a Mystery Realm didn't seem to care about the realm level of those entering, which undoubtedly sparked the interest of the other Holy Spirit Level existences who were initially somewhat hesitant.
After reaching the Holy Spirit Level, most, if not all, ordinary wild Mystery Realms had nothing to do with them.
Even if they entered, they couldn't forcibly use their powers or summon their petemons.
Now, they had finally encountered one, and it was not just any Mystery Realm, but a Legend Grade inheritance Mystery Realm. This was almost like a gift from the heavens.
Such an opportunity, Su Ping was ready to explore, let alone the other Holy Spirit Level beings present.
Moreover, from the looks of it, this inheritance Mystery Realm didn't seem particularly dangerous?
It even had some kind of ranking system?
A climbing ranking?
Just climbing, what dangers could there be?
Not only did others think this way, but Su Ping also agreed. Besides, he had confidence in his strength, and most importantly, he had his trump card!
The special talent after the Dragon Clan's enlightenment!
The Indestructible Dragon Soul.
It gave him a chance to come back to life after death.
If he still hesitated with such an opportunity, Su Ping would have wasted his life.
However, Su Ping wasn't foolish. He didn't rush in immediately.
His petemon, Fat, didn't need to worry. With the phone, biological signals, and soul covenant, they could always stay in touch.
What he needed to find now was another possible native inhabitant of this place within the Core of Ten Thousand Spirits!
The Rock Spirit, Tai Shan.
This Sovereign Grade earth element giant spirit was the laziest in the Core of Ten Thousand Spirits, too lazy to work, and always sleeping.
According to him, he fell from a very, very high place, didn't die, and just kept sleeping. It was likely that he had been shaken out from within this Mystery Realm.
Thus, finding Tai Shan, who was still sleeping in the heart of the earth, Su Ping carried him and returned to the Mystery Realm entrance. He exchanged glances with the others and walked in together!
