Chapter 528: Chapter 335 The End of the Elemental Era_1

"Dada dada~"

Lu Ran hummed a little tune as he collected his rewards and pet beasts and exited the Secret Realm, finally returning to reality.

To be honest, the rewards from this Secret Realm were different from what he had imagined.

However, Lu Ran was a person easily satisfied.

"I had thought it would be time-related upgrade resources..."

"But the Time Fruits are also good, they’ve come at the right time. Next, I’m heading to the Star-Moon Federation. Being unfamiliar with the place, relying only on Manager Ying as a bodyguard is somewhat unsettling."

"With the Time Fruits, whether it’s pushing Manager Ying to level 100 in the face of danger, or feeding them to Mr. Husky and the others, I can instantly form an overwhelmingly powerful battle force."

"It’s a pity that I can only show off for a few minutes."

Lu Ran shook his head in regret. It would have been nice to have a few dozen more of these things.

In his room, Lu Ran slowly rose from his wheelchair and then comfortably lay back down on the bed, his expression one of contentment.

It was indeed more comfortable lying down.

"Now I have two top-grade Beast Training Techniques in my hands, Reincarnation and Space-Time Shield. Compared to these two, the healing and purifying Beast Training Techniques can be set aside. After I break through the next level, which one should I learn?"

Lu Ran fell into contemplation. The Space-Time Shield he had just obtained seemed very impressive indeed.

If he had this skill during his time in the Beast Training Empire, the Beast God might not have even noticed him and the Six Paths Flower.

"Reincarnation requires the death of a pet beast to take effect, which is too restrictive."

"By comparison, if I’m to learn a new skill, obviously the Space-Time Shield is more suitable for me right now."

"This way, whether I’m going to a new Breakthrough Secret Realm or to the Star-Moon Federation, the restrictions will be less..."

Sometimes, Beast Training Techniques don’t necessarily have to chase those that strengthen pet beasts or one’s own combat power.

The main problem is that Beast Trainers need to use their physical strength to use Beast Training Techniques, so no matter how many techniques they have, they can only stack 2 or 3 during actual combat. Any more than that and the Beast Trainer won’t be able to sustain it.

So instead of stacking all combat-type Beast Training Techniques, it might be better to have a variety of fancy skills—at least that’s how Lu Ran sees it.

"As for the Attribute Crystal and the Future Predicting ability, Manager Ying already has a similar power. Hmm, I’ll keep it for the Six Paths Flower. After awakening its memories, we’ll see if it needs it."

"If not, it seems it could also be given to the Dark Crow. Its Eye of the Evil God seems unable to detect the existence of Time Attribute beings. Pairing it with Future Predicting might take its surveillance abilities to the next level."

These things were still okay, Lu Ran thought they were quite useful.

It was the last item, the Time-Space Worm Egg, that confused him.

[Name]: Time-Space Worm Egg (Low-ranking extraordinary race, extraordinary being with no attribute)

[Introduction]: A unique insect life form, incredibly weak, but able to feed on time and space. After consuming enough time-space energy, it can transform into a time-space cocoon. While in the cocoon state, it still has the ability to absorb time-space energy. Once it has absorbed enough nutrients, it will immediately emerge from the cocoon transformed into either a Butterfly of Time or a Butterfly of Space, depending on the proportion of time-space energy absorbed.

This fellow...

First off, the fact that the level 4 Legendary Secret Realm gave a low-ranking extraordinary pet beast as a reward was quite absurd.

However, this bug doesn’t seem to require special characteristics or evolutionary resources; it can evolve automatically just by eating and growing normally.

Moreover, it’s a rare time-space attribute larva that can ultimately reach Overlord rank.

Lu Ran’s expression turned serious. But even so, this thing didn’t seem easy to raise; it probably needed a large amount of time-space resources to evolve.

"This one can’t be sold to Kitty."

"The previous ones I gave to Kitty were okay, but this one has the chance to give birth to a rare Time Attribute pet beast."

"Even though the Six Paths Flower is predestined to awaken to the Time Attribute, having a butterfly as its Affiliation wouldn’t hurt, right?"

"I remember it also controlled a butterfly for its own use back then. The Six Paths Flower is surely an expert in nurturing butterflies, so when the time comes, this worm egg should go to the Six Paths Flower."

Lu Ran quickly decided on what to do with the Time-Space Worm Egg.

Meanwhile.

Manager Ying sent a message.

[That was efficient?]

[Taking to the field despite injuries, quite inspiring. So, do you have any eggs to deal with?]

[None, I plan to keep them for my pet beasts to form Affiliations.] Lu Ran replied.

[Tch.] Manager Ying found it boring.

[Speaking of which, aren’t you planning to evolve Yun Bao? I’ll send you the information I’ve gathered from the trialists in the Star-Moon Federation about the Elemental Era, you can study it.]

Afterward, Manager Ying sent a document.

Lu Ran leaned against the bed and opened it with a slight start.

The Elemental Era, as the most primitive and ancient era of the Star-Moon World, was indeed full of unknown mysteries.

[The Star-Moon Federation’s archaeologists made the earliest discovery: the secret to the end of the Elemental Era!]

[Relative to extraordinary animals and plants, the first-born Elemental Beings had much more exceptional talents.]

[By the end of the Elemental Era, every Elemental Attribute had its own Elemental God.]

[But perhaps due to an accumulation of power that was too strong, or perhaps for some other hidden reason, these Elemental Gods actually sought to overthrow the absolute control of the Star-Moon World by the Four Great Genesis Dragons.]

[And the result, as expected, was that some Elemental Spirits from the Elemental Era were eliminated by the Four Great Genesis Dragons, while others were sealed.]

[Ordinary Elemental Beings could no longer be born after that divine war.]

[At this point, it was also the opportunity for the rise of Animal Gods as countless animal lives began to ascend on the continent. The Four Great Genesis Dragons likely started cultivating their affiliates during this phase, which explains why the affiliates of the Four Great Genesis Dragons are Animal Gods as well.]

[Compared to Humans and plant life that had their limits sealed by Animal Gods, elemental beings are evidently even more taboo.]

[Even now in the Star-Moon Federation, aside from the elemental being rewards brought back from Secret Realms, there are no other Elemental Pets.]

"Hmm."

Upon reading this, Lu Ran was slightly startled. So, the Elemental Gods were crushed by the Four Great Genesis Dragons?

However, what does this have to do with Yun Bao’s evolution?

When in doubt, ask.

[What do you mean?] Lu Ran sought clarification from Manager Ying.

[How would I know!]

[I’m just more curious why Elemental Spirits would become enemies of the Four Great Dragon Gods. Yun Bao, as one of the few elemental beings in both worlds right now, has this secret entrusted to you for research. I feel that an elemental being’s evolution to its extreme might not be able to avoid this secret.]

Lu Ran was speechless; the cat had given him another tough question.

This sort of thing, even if asked of the Divine Deer, it might not know either.

Unless some Elemental God that was sealed by the Four Great Genesis Dragons broke free...

"Continue resting."

Lu Ran decided to keep lying down, holding Yun Bao and recovering from his injuries. Currently, since Mr. Husky and King of Sudden Death both had control over their bodies, they had ample space to move around freely at home.

While Lu Ran rested, Mr. Husky, maintaining a typical Husky demeanor, trotted off to his room to sleep. It was the main force in the recent instance and was certainly tired—it preferred the dog bed it had lived in for years even though the Contract Card and the Relic Space offer better restoration effects.

As for King of Sudden Death, it turned into a Mini Dragon and went off to watch TV, flanked by a Sword Grass on the left and a Sword Spirit on the right—arguably a form of NTR.

And Dark Crow was the busiest; after clearing the Secret Realm, it flew non-stop to the Crow Secret Realm to continue monitoring the growth of its underlings.

Meanwhile.

In an underground altar somewhere abroad.

Ying cat firmly set its paw on its doppelganger and poured the necessary space resources into activating the Cross-border Teleportation Array.

"Leave it to you, meow."

"Wuwu..." The doppelganger cat shed tears, then stepped into the Teleportation Array.

The next instant, light flickered, and Manager Ying’s doppelganger, as the vanguard, was teleported to the Star-Moon world ahead of the others.

......

"Damn!"

"Where is this?"

After experiencing a more nauseating transmission than that from Infinite City, Manager Ying’s doppelganger finally felt stable on the ground.

But as soon as it landed, it was enveloped by endless darkness, giving Manager Ying a sinister premonition.

Whoosh!!!

Before it could take a closer look, bright lights suddenly filled the surroundings. Manager Ying then realized that the environment here was not much different from the underground altar from before the teleportation.

Was it still underground?

Teleportation failure?

No!

"Finally, some life has arrived." A faint voice rang out. Manager Ying looked towards a high platform and saw a squirrel standing next to a lamp, squinting at it.

"Who are you." Manager Ying asked instinctively.

"I am an affiliate of the Dragon of Space, Pine God! Doppelganger!"

Manager Ying’s eyes widened. An affiliate of the Dragon of Space???

"Wait, something’s off." The squirrel stared at Manager Ying with a look of surprise.

"You too are a doppelganger?"

"No, why would a doppelganger come through from the Cross-border Teleportation Array so steadily, what’s going on with you?"

"Huh?" Manager Ying saw the Divine Dragon Affiliation acting startled and gave a skeptical look.

"Why can’t a doppelganger undergo teleportation, is there something strange about that?"

"Of course it’s strange, Teleportation Arrays can’t transmit doppelgangers, isn’t that common knowledge? Even if Energy Shaping reaches the third stage and achieves Life Shaping, it can’t withstand teleportation, that’s the ’World Rules’."

"Ah?" Manager Ying scratched its head, what was all this muddle?

After a while, the squirrel looked gravely at Manager Ying and said, "You, my friend, probably don’t belong to the Star-Moon Continent or the Blue Planet; you’re a foreigner."

"Otherwise, you are the Reincarnation Body of some Legendary Divine Beast, capable of ignoring such rules."

"Really??" Manager Ying, hearing that it might have such a powerful origin and identity, immediately opened its eyes wide with joy.

"Forget it, it’s not important anyway, given how silly you look, you’ve probably forgotten everything and started over," Pine God ground its teeth and said, "Let’s talk business."

Manager Ying: ???

"You’ve come from the Blue Planet, so you should already know the relationship between the life forms of the Blue Planet and those of the Star-Moon World, right?"
