Starting With Contract Pets Chapter 303 – Stele of the Secret Seal

“Why are you here?” Su Bai looked at his girlfriend, who was lying on the sofa and teasing Qiu Qiu.

“I saw news about Gao Sheng online, so I came over to see if you're alright. Who's behind it? Was it your gym's Zi Wuji?” Chen Ruoxue sat up and asked.

“It's not him; you'd never imagine who's behind all this.” He came over and sat beside her, shaking his head gently.

“Who was it?” she leaned against him and asked.

He put his arm around her shoulder and said, “Giant Kraken Gymnasium; isn't it surprising?”

“You're right. That's unexpected,” she shook her head, saying, “but thinking about it this way, they are indeed the most suspicious.”

“Yes, but we can't rule out that someone is deliberately slandering them. Anyway, dead men can't talk,” Su Bai smiled and said.

The source of this information was Curator Zi Tianhe, whom he did not truly trust.

Humans' hearts were complicated. What if that man was talking nonsense to cover up for his son? After all, he had not shown any evidence.

“By the way, I heard that you and Zi Wuji had a row, and Curator Zi Tianhe was involved. What happened?” Chen Ruoxue asked, concerned.

Su Bai exhaled, put his arms around her, and said slowly, “It's regarding my contract book. I've been using fog to hide it, and it's discovered by someone who thought that I swallowed other contract books, so he took this opportunity to attack me.

“However, although the mermaid token is now exposed, I also gained a lot.”

He told her about what had happened, and as he talked, he lay on her soft thighs.

“Oh, then you really have to be careful. There are indeed many hidden traitors in the Alliance. It's very dangerous for you.” She smiled.

“I know.” He nodded. “It's so annoying. I'll go to the bottom of the Sea Abyss in a while; I may not have time to accompany you for some time.

“After a few days, once everything is settled, I'll probably be free. ”

“Don't be narcissistic. I also specially took the time to come and see you. I've been busy with my own matters recently. The effect of the Mist of Evolution is obvious; I want to improve my pets' strengths as soon as possible.” Chen Rouxue tut-tutted.

“By the way, did you receive an invitation from a Western woman named Chelsea?” he asked again.

“No, what's up?”

“Yesterday, that woman suddenly invited me and Zi Wuji to participate in a secret exploration. I thought that she had invited all of us.”

“I don't know. Maybe I just didn't catch her eye.” Chen Ruoxue smiled and spread out her hands.

“It's okay. You caught my eye.” Su Bai chuckled.

“I have one more thing to tell you. Mistress Wei Ya and some members of the Twelve Dragon Slayers have also come to Heavenly Abyss.” She grabbed his hand and leaned in closer.

“I've guessed as much. How could that organization not come at such an important occasion?”

“Okay, I have to go now. I still have things to handle.” Chen Ruoxue rolled her eyes.

“It's not safe for you to travel alone; I'll send you back. With Planet Eye's Transmission skill, it'll be very fast.” Su Bai chuckled.

“Okay. At least, you still have a conscience.” She snorted softly.

He used her phone to accompany his girlfriend back using Planet Eye's Transmission and then returned by himself.

The gathering place of Fuyao Gymnasium was not far from that of Yulong Gymnasium, and it only consumed about one-third of his pet's energy to activate this Transmission.

Once he was back, Su Bai had a meal and went to see Qin Miao.

“Alright. Now that everyone is here, let's set out.”

Grandmaster Zhang Lu glanced at the four of them and released a bronze divine dragon to carry everyone toward the bottom of the abyss.

“Master, didn't you say that there were others who wanted to come along?” asked Qin Miao curiously.

“Actually, someone from the Alliance has explored it once. We're acting alone this time, and other gyms are doing the same. They're just trying to see if they can get in early.”

Zhang Lu looked at Su Bai as she said, “This time, with him, we may be able to enter ahead.”

The bronze dragon carried everyone all the way to the bottom of the Sea Abyss and soon reached the extreme boundary that Su Bai had explored last time.

Although this bronze dragon was only at the sovereign level, under Zhang Lu's command, it braved the dangers of this place and carried everyone through the fog toward the bottom.

Just as the Mist of Evolution grew thicker, they arrived at the depths of the abyss.

The bottom of the abyss comprised huge land fragments. Between these fragments, a very powerful spatial wind raged.

The source of the Mist of Evolution was the large spherical island at the seafloor. It was said to be an island, but it may be more appropriate to call it a continent.

This spherical island was a Hidden Realm, which contained the aura of the Lord of Infinite Matter.

A gray-colored energy wave shrouded the periphery, and the Mist of Evolution endlessly spewed fog from there.

“Hiss!”

Suddenly, a roar sounded and the gray mist churned, revealing the figure of a previously hidden monster on the back of the island outside the Hidden Realm.

It was a terrifying, snake-shaped monster with a body length of more than ten thousand meters. Its body had thousands of hand-like feet, its spine had rows of black barbs protruding, and its hideous face was gray.

It exuded a horrible aura, which Su Bai had never felt before, sending shivers down his spine at a single glance.

“Don't look at its face; you'll be sucked into the power of its soul. This is an immortal monster, the Dementor Snake. It's very difficult to deal with and its characteristic is dementia. As long as you perceive its existence, you'll be continuously sucked in by the power of its soul.”

As Zhang Lu explained this, the tabby cat on her shoulder mewed sharply, radiating a cold and terrifying aura. This caused the Dementor Snake's pupils to shrink, revealing a trace of fear.

“Be very careful when you come here. While monsters like the Dementor Snake are easy to perceive because they're low level, there are a lot of immortal monsters around here. They are the real terror.

“Still, I'm not easy to mess with, and as long as the Hidden Realm remains closed off, they won't attack,” she calmly explained.

“Isn't someone guarding the world of the void so that these immortal monsters can't get in?” Su Bai asked curiously.

Zhang Lu glanced at him again and slowly explained, “That's under normal circumstances. Unfortunately, there are too many ways for those void monsters to get in. Every time something related to the four great creation pets appears, they'll find various ways to get in.

“Even though they don't speak, they're actually very intelligent, especially the ones who have lived for many years.”

“Okay.” He nodded.

“Let's come closer and take a look. Su Bai, scan the surroundings and see if there's anything unusual.” Zhang Lu gave this instruction while she directed her dragon to pierce through the mysterious gray energy wave.

This close, the gray mist, which continuously emerged like a rushing stream, had no temperature.

Su Bai leaned over and touched it curiously. As soon as he touched the gray light wave, a horrible suctioning power activated and a quick thunderbolt pulled him in.

Zhang Lu did not even react during the entire process.

“Master, Su Bai isn't in danger, is he?” Qin Miao asked in concern.

“Probably not. It seems that the statue on Su Bai's contract should be a real token of the mermaid, Recorder of All Things,” she gently shook her head and said.

With Su Bai's sudden disappearance, a horrible aura at the bottom of this Sea Abyss grew and a pair of scarlet eyes emerged from the darkness.

This made Zhang Lu reveal a trace of tension, and she could not help but let out another immortal Sapphire Dragon.

On another end, Su Bai was sucked into the Hidden Realm by that power, and by the time he reacted, he had already appeared in a clearing.

At the center of this open space was a huge stone stele. On the stele was a section of weird runes and four sunken patterns. Upon closer examination, they were the patterns of the four great creation pets.

He glanced over the stone tablet and understood the meaning of the words.

This stele was the stele of the secret seal, which sealed the deepest secrets of the universe. Only when all the tokens of the four great creation pets were collected could they be opened to obtain the secrets.

If a life with a token came here, he could communicate with the stele of the secret seal to obtain information about the other three tokens, which had yet to be obtained.

Su Bai looked at the patterns of the four tokens and was surprised to find that the pattern of the Eternally Miraculous Beauty was actually lit.

Fortunately, the patterns of the Infinite Shuttle Dragon and the Lord of Infinite Matter were still dim.

This meant that, before his arrival, someone who had the Eternally Miraculous Beauty's token had already come to obtain the information of the other two tokens.

He did not know if that existence had discovered that he was also the owner of a token.

After some hesitation, he summoned his contract book and pressed the Recorder of All Things' pattern which was engraved on the stone tablet.

As it was pressed in, the stone tablet seemed to come alive; streams of blue light emerged and flowed from the lines of each pattern.

After circulating on the stone tablet a few times, all the energy went into his contract book, and at the same time, a new message appeared in his mind.

He kept his contract book and discovered that the original stone-like mermaid statue had been activated and had turned into a water-blue color. It now exuded a light blue stream, which seemed to be transforming his contract book subtly.

Similarly, the mermaid pattern on the stone tablet was completely illuminated.

The information he had obtained was about the other Infinite Shuttle Dragon and the Lord of Infinite Matter.

Of these two, the token of the Lord of Infinite Matter was at the bottom of Heavenly Abyss while the token of the Infinite Shuttle Dragon was in Kunlun Ruins.

That was to say, the place where Su Bai was now was not the Hidden Realm at the bottom of Sea Abyss; rather, he was in an unknown location.

Just as he was deep in thought, a huge teleportation force struck him, and when he came back to his senses, he had once again appeared in his original position outside the Hidden Realm.

“Are you okay?” Qin Miao quickly inquired upon seeing him reappear.

He shook his head. “I'm okay.”

“How was it? Where did you get transported to? Did you discover anything?”

After confirming that he was alright, Zhang Lu activated an isolation shield and asked.

Zi Tianhe and Bai Chen on the side looked over, obviously very curious.

“I went to a strange place and obtained a few pieces of information, including details of several other tokens. Of the four, the token of Eternally Miraculous Beauty had already been obtained by others, while the token of the Lord of Infinite Matter is here. The token of Infinite Shuttle Dragon is related to Kunlun Ruins.”

He revealed all the details other than the secret seal of the stele.

These tokens involved the immortal monsters in the void, and he did not want to face those guys alone.

After all, it was difficult even when unified human beings resisted them. Hence, it was easier to reveal it so that everyone could share the burden.

When she heard his response, Zhang Lu nodded slowly, thinking that it had been the right decision to bring this young man over.

It was just that she did not expect that the token of the Eternally Miraculous Beauty had already been obtained.

“You're not intending to hide such information from us?” She looked at Su Bai and smiled.

“I don't want to face those void monsters alone. It's great that these things can be obtained by humans, and I only know the general information. I don't know the specific situation.” He shrugged and continued speaking. “The most important thing is that I trust the grandmaster.”

“Such a sweet-talker. If that's the case, I'll tell you another secret.” She looked at him and smiled again.

“This isn't known yet, and you'll be the first to hear about it. There's a way to learn about the mysterious Lord of Infinite Matter.

“From speculation, you just need to collect the Essence of Evolution and cultivate a pet. This cultivated pet can take you into the Hidden Realm.

“However, you have to remember that this pet can only be cultivated through pure Essence of Evolution. When it grows up, the power contained in its whole body will blend with the shield around the Hidden Realm so that it can enter and exit it at will.”

“I see! Thank you, grandmaster.” Su Bai's eyes lit up. It was indeed very valuable information to him.

“Will there be any problems with this Essence of Evolution and the pets cultivated?” he asked.

“Don't worry. There won't be.” Zhang Lu shook her head. “My other purpose for coming here is to hunt monsters and obtain the Essence of Evolution.”

Su Bai nodded. “I understand.”

“Okay, I'll take you back first. It's useless for you to stay here.” Glancing at him, she released an immortal Sapphire Dragon and sent him back to a safer place on the sea surface.

“Okay, it's time for us to hunt!” He also sighed.

“Roar!” I've been waiting for it!

“Howl~” I want to kill to my heart's content; I feel so suffocated! The elf raised the staff in its hand.

Planet Eye quickly entered a space crack. Once inside, Su Bai blocked the exit and soon the contract book was opened. Ten young krakens were released.

Originally, he was still worried about how to cultivate them. To Su Bai, the Essence of Evolution was a blessing.
