Chapter 473: Chapter 289: Thousand Poison Mother Tree_1

Green Sea.

After dealing with the Black Dragon, Lu Ran felt completely relaxed, body and soul.

He had thought that at this stage from level 3 to 4, he could have a good rest, but who knew that such a troublesome Black Dragon would pop up.

However, the pressing situation with the Black Dragon did bring him substantial benefits.

The gift of the Divine Deer... the rise of the Dark Crow Legion...

"It’s about time for a two-day rest," he said.

Senior Brother Divine Sculpture Hero and Sword Grass were under Mr. Husky’s cultivation; just let those three dogs practice Sword Intent and Combined Sword Domain on their own.

The sea was under the care of Dark Crow and Xuan Turtle.

Even the ordinary crows, Lu Ran planned to hand over to Fang Lan for cultivation.

This was the life befitting the Green Sea King, and if he had to do everything himself, it would be too tiring.

However, Lu Ran also knew that it was unrealistic to completely wash his hands of cultivation work.

For example, the Instrument Spirit Stele companion he promised to Xuan Turtle still had to be forged by him personally.

Besides, the leveling up of Mr. Husky, King of Sudden Death, and Yun Bao would also require his guidance in the arena.

"No wonder so many Beast Trainers only cultivate one or two pet beasts, having too many is indeed exhausting," he mused.

As Lu Ran stretched languidly, he had already decided his next course of action: to first cooperate with Professor Ye in transplanting the Forest of Death, and then go nurture new undead equipment.

Since he was going to forge an undead weapon for Xuan Turtle, he decided he might as well forge a few more in one go, since nurturing one or nurturing two or three required similar efforts; doing them all at once would save a lot of work and prevent frequent entries into the Necromancer Secret Realm.

After a brief calculation, Lu Ran thought he could forge an undead shield as a future Affiliation for King of Sudden Death, as previously planned.

Additionally, he could forge a sword spirit similar to a Corpse Dog for Master Jiang Dou.

The old man never made things easy for anyone. Lu Ran felt that Mr. Jiang Dou Sr. would have been better off swapping roles with Xuan Turtle and enjoying his retirement peacefully. Instead, the elder recently managed to get his hands on a Contract Black Card and became a Beast Trainer at such an advanced age.

Really, the old man was fierce.

Thanks to his notable combat ability and the Extraordinary Being with excellent potential that Lu Ran had once gifted him, he managed to pass through the Novice Secret Realm with an SS rating.

Now, he was quite pleased with himself.

For the old man’s future safety, Lu Ran, as a disciple, had to prepare something for him—a sword spirit pet, which Lu Ran thought would be very appropriate for Master Jiang Dou.

It would be best to also get a Monarch Species Sword Spirit.

Now, Fang Lan’s family and Master Jiang Dou were the only kin Lu Ran had left. He didn’t want Mr. Jiang Dou Sr. to end up like Senior Brother Divine Sculpture Hero, who died in a Breakthrough Secret Realm.

"But with the old man’s strength, it would be hard for him to fail," Lu Ran shook his head.

Master Jiang Dou was even fiercer than him; right after contracting his pet beast, he had comprehended Rainbow Sword Intent.

He achieved this without relying on any extraordinary skills, solely with a human body understanding swordsmanship.

This innate talent made Lu Ran’s initial accomplishments look trivial by comparison. It must have been the result of decades of experience in Sword Dao.

It’s worth noting that Lu Ran’s own swordsmanship was slowly learned through stacking techniques like Super Beast Mimicry and Weapon Control...

They say there’s no school like the old school.

However, when Mr. Jiang Dou Sr. mentioned this feat to Lu Ran, his tone was devoid of any boasting or joy.

After all... even a dog had grasped something even more badass like ’Sword Field,’ making learning Sword Intent seem almost unworthy of celebration.

From Mr. Jiang Dou Sr.’s perspective as a Trainee Beast Trainer, comprehending Sword Intent might not be something to celebrate, but from Lu Ran’s experienced perspective, it was incredibly powerful. Master Jiang Dou truly deserved his reputation as one of Xia Country’s top Sword Dao masters.

Lu Ran felt that, with a bit of his help, Mr. Jiang Dou Sr. could become a second Senior Chairman, an elder who could decimate the young without mercy, sending shockwaves through the younger generations.

"Heh heh," Lu Ran thought with increasing amusement, convinced that he must give the old man this Sword Spirit.

With this in mind, Lu Ran called Manager Ying.

"Meow?"

"Manager Ying, I’m planning to head to the Necromancer Secret Realm in a couple of days; can I get an avatar to accompany me as a bodyguard?"

"Go, go, go," Manager Ying made a face, "You now have Relic Space and Crow Swarm; what are you afraid of? Who could harm you? You’re grown-up now; it’s time to stand on your own!"

"I’m busy, bye. Every country now wants to invite me to open branches, I’m living it up. I’ll take this chance to collect more gifts."

"Don’t overthink it, I’m purely saying this because I spent a lot of energy recently and don’t have the strength to split off an avatar right now, hmm, it’s up to you."

Click!

The call ended.

Lu Ran: ?

"Busy, everyone’s busy. Being busy is good!" Lu Ran gritted his teeth and hung up the call.

He had even planned to share some intel about the divine deer’s avatar, but it seemed Manager Ying wasn’t fortunate enough to hear it. It would have to wait for another time.

......

With Manager Ying not providing help, Lu Ran didn’t dwell on it too much; indeed, as long as he was well-prepared, he could manage on his own.

Meanwhile, Professor Ye and Fang Lan arrived in a hurry, not making Lu Ran wait too long.

Both were now aware that Lu Ran’s third Breakthrough Secret Realm was the Divine Tree Continent.

And they also knew he had plundered a wealth of Ferocious Plant resources.

Professor Ye, wearing glasses and looking excited, had not expected to hear such great news right after getting over the tense Black Dragon situation. For a botanist, the Forest of Death that Lu Ran described was incredibly tempting.
