Chapter 169 - 168: Isn't the Secret Realm Supposed to Open Just by Touching It?



Looking at Alpha, who was becoming more imposing by the minute and a far cry from his original skeletal, feeble appearance, Bai Qi nodded in satisfaction. He then started to sense Alpha’s condition.

[Name]: Wilting Dragon Lord (Alpha)

[Attribute]: Ice Clan, Undead Department, Dragon Department

[Growth Level]: Third Stage Eighth Level

[Bloodline Level]: High-Level Lord

[Racial skills]: Withering Breath (Super Level – Proficient), Dragon Might (High Level – Proficient), Skeleton Manipulation (High Level – Perfect), Ice Crystal Barrier (High Level – Perfect), Blast Crystal Spike (High Level – Perfect), Shadow Lotus Skill (Mid-Level – Perfect), Gravity Amplification (Super Level – Proficient), Wind Wound (High Level – Beginner), Blade Storm (Super Level – Beginner)

[Energy Value]: 4100000

[Condition]: Evolvable

Both levels had been upgraded, but apart from the addition of Wind Wound and Blade Storm skills, Alpha’s racial name hadn’t changed.

“Because there hasn’t been a qualitative change, it’s still the Wilting Dragon Lord?”

Bai Qi pondered and then noticed Schuck squatting thoughtfully next to the battle room, staring blankly at the pile of Etherium Liquid Gold.

Had he been so shocked that he fell into depression?

Seeing this, Bai Qi coughed lightly, intending to attract Schuck’s attention.

As Instructor Lv said, a qualified Beast Master should notice their pet’s mental state and coordinate the relationship between their pets in a reasonable way. Otherwise, it would affect the performance of the pets.

It was time to show off his communication skills, honed through two lifetimes as a Beast Master.

Schuck was indeed alerted by Bai Qi’s cough. Upon seeing Bai Qi, who showed a kind and friendly face approaching him, Schuck immediately deduced Bai Qi’s intentions.

“I understand what you want to do, Beast Master. I am not as fragile as you think. Besides, I have already thought of ways to strengthen our combat abilities.”

A stream of data flowed through Schuck’s electronic eyes, indicating that he had already begun to simulate.

“Also, if there’s a chance, you can pay attention to spiritual materials. Both Beta’s and my abilities are fundamentally based on Spirit Power.”

“Oh, alright.”

Upon hearing Schuck’s words, Bai Qi nodded blandly.

In this day and age, pets could already self-soothe and progress on their own?

Bai Qi looked at Alpha, who had just acquired new skills and upgraded to a High-Level Lord and was already getting used to his new power.

As for Gamma, he was a welcome departure from his usual laziness, playing with his own split embodiment.

Bai Qi felt strangely like he didn’t exist…

Watching his three pets involved in their individual activities, Bai Qi suddenly felt like an old father abandoned by his three grown sons, feeling a sense of melancholy in his heart.

“I might as well study the runes…”

Bai Qi shook his head helplessly and returned to his room to wrestle with the Rune Rubik’s Cube.

The Rune Rubik’s Cube had been played up to the fifteenth stage, and Bai Qi clearly felt a little exhausted. This side alone had taken him nearly a week, and he still had two sides left unfinished.

The further he went, the more the runes on the cube differed from the runes in Professor Dong’s dictionary. Even while referring to the dictionary, it was becoming difficult.

However, after seeing the ancient runes in the Emperor’s Secret Realm, Bai Qi gained some understanding.

The further he got in the cube, the older the recorded runes became. Now, he was dealing with ancient runes.

“Isn’t this it?”

Thanks to the rubbings, the chaotic fragments of the cube suddenly began to clear up. Bai Qi’s operation speed became faster and faster. The side that was supposed to take a week was completed in just half an hour, followed by the second side.

Finally, as dusk fell outside, Bai Qi finally completed the cube in his hand.

Clip-clop…

Accompanied by the sound of a mechanism turning, the Rune Rubik’s Cube slowly floated into the air, then shifted and fell back into Bai Qi’s hand.

It was an impressive sixteen-stage Rubik’s Cube!

“Is this trying to kill me…”

Bai Qi’s eyes twitched slightly, and he had the impulse to dismantle the Rune Rubik’s Cube.

“Huh?”

At this moment, Bai Qi suddenly found that some parts of the cube seemed to have some divisions. He quickly operated without paying attention to the runes on it.

The difficulty of the sixteen-tier rune was obviously higher by one level. Bai Qi spent about an hour gathering the blocks with some gaps to the same surface. Although it was still not very clear, a faint outline could already be seen.

A lock hole.

Looking at the keyhole on the cube, Bai Qi immediately thought of the key he had sold to the Thirteenth Bureau.

Looking at it that way, the Rune Rubik’s Cube ultimately definitely needed that key to be opened, but now that key was in the hands of the Thirteenth Bureau— there was surely no hope now.

This reminded him, maybe that puppet in the final stage could have also been opened with the key?

“Oh hell, I got ripped off!!!”

Bai Qi painfully thumped his chest, wishing he could travel back in time and kill his past self who was content with trading for a piece of mythical resource.

He was crying because of his own stupidity…

“I didn’t know you were a masochist.”

Just at that moment, Luo Xiang suddenly popped up at the door of Bai Qi. After glanced at the Rune Rubik’s Cube in Bai Qi’s hand, Luo Xiang said, “Is this what you got from the Gemini Tower? To open it, do you need that key?”

No wonder Luo Xiang was a seasoned traveler in secret realms—he quickly noticed the connection between the Rune Rubik’s Cube and the key.

At Luo Xiang’s words, Bai Qi stammered, “Instructor Luo, do you know about this?”

“Sort of, Beast Masters from the Era of Law Emperor liked to play these sorts of tricks. We get used to them.”

Luo Xiang nodded, taking the Rubik’s Cube from Bai Qi’s hands, and said, “But a 16-stage Rune Rubik’s Cube is indeed rare. It seems that the Gemini Tower isn’t the end. There may be more secret realm towers that follow.”

Upon hearing Luo Xiang’s words, Bai Qi fell into deeper despair.

He had sold the key, so he didn’t hold out any hope for the following secret realm towers.

“You are worried that the Thirteenth Bureau will find the secret realm first, right?”

Luo Xiang laughed, saying: “Don’t worry. Although I’m not sure if there are other components, the cube is essential to open the next secret realm tower. So you can just wait quite peacefully for the Thirteenth Bureau to come to you.” “Remember, the party who possesses more elements to enter the secret realm is the most anxious one. You are alone, so what’s there for you to worry about?” At these words, Bai Qi was shocked. Was it the minority who actually had the advantage?

With a smirk on his face, Luo Xiang said, “Remember to fleece the Thirteenth Bureau well, and ensure that you are a part of the exploration too.”

“The value of these secret realm towers that are distributed in different areas is not low.”

Bai Qi hastily nodded at that. If the Thirteenth Bureau comes looking for him again for a trade, he will propose a deal to trade the technology for space transmission or some other Seven Stage technology. Even if he can’t use it now, researching it in advance would be good.

“Oh, by the way, big brother Luo, did you come here to see me for something?” Luo Xiang nodded, answering, “I need to go to the Emperor’s Secret Realm first and I probably won’t come out for a while. You follow Uncle Chun for now. He’ll arrange your tasks.”

Upon hearing these words, Bai Qi couldn’t help twitching at the corners of his eyes. That decadent uncle, would he accidentally forget him in the secret realm one of these days when he gets too drunk?

“Don’t underestimate Uncle Chun. If I were to really count it, Uncle Chun would be my teacher. He’s definitely a top-three expert at cracking secret realms in the Association.”

“Top three?”

In Bai Qi’s mind, the image of a drunken Chun Yushui surfaced. He found it hard to connect it with what Luo Xiang had just said.

“You will understand once you spend more time with Uncle Chun.”

Luo Xiang smiled, looking at the completely dark sky outside, and said, “I should get going. How much credit you can earn depends on Uncle Chun’s evaluation. See ya…”

After speaking, Luo Xiang turned around and left.

Just like before, he suddenly popped in and out like the wind…

Bai Qi, looking at Luo Xiang disappearing into the night, shook his head. Then, he took out an Angel Fruit to curb his hunger.

This was a strange place to him, and he didn’t feel like going out to find something to eat. Besides, he just wanted something quick and easy.

After all, the 16-stage Magic Cube, which may have been the key to enter the next secret realm tower, was still unfinished. There were also ancient runes that he had not begun to study yet. He had many things to handle.

“Hey! Bai Qi, it’s time for dinner!”

Just then, Chun Yushui’s shout came from outside the door. Bai Qi went to the door and was surprised to see numerous bonfires that had set up outside the door. The association’s Beast Masters who had been diligently deciphering the entrance to the secret realm during the day were now singing and dancing around the bonfires.

Were they having a bonfire party?

Bai Qi stared blankly at the scene before him. Leaning against the wall, Chun Yushui then laughed and said, “Kid, this is not the Headquarters. It’s not that formal here, come and join the chaos!”

“Is this really okay?”

Bai Qi touched his forehead, somewhat troubled. It was really hard for Bai Qi to connect the idea of Chun Yushui and a top-three secret realm cracker in the Association.

“Cracking a secret realm isn’t as easy as it seems. If you lack the Breaking the Void talent, a single rune could trap you for the rest of your life. Try not to be constantly stressed; you need to find a way to cheer yourself up, else you might easily collapse mum- ”

With a laugh, Chun Yushui passed Bai Qi a bottle of wine, asking, “Would you like to give it a try?”

“I’d better not. I don’t have this habit.”

With an awkward smile, Bai Qi declined Chun Yushui’s kind offer and showed no intention of joining the bonfire party.

If what Chun Yushui said was true, that would explain Luo Xiang’s mysterious and elusive style—he must have just wanted to unwind.

However, he, on the other hand, didn’t seem to have much pressure here. Wasn’t the door to the secret realm always opening automatically at his touch?
