Chapter 193

Are you planning to conquer an A-rank or a B-rank Secret Realm?

Hearing Qin Chuan's words, Yue Li pondered for a moment, then curiously spoke.

"B-rank." Qin Chuan had no hesitation.

He has never tried how strong the Epic Tier is, so he doesn't know.

But one thing can be confirmed.

That is, as long as it is Epic Tier, it possesses two Halo Gear pieces, one of which is obtained by upgrading Star Gear.

The Halo Gear's affixes are surely stronger than Star Gear's, let alone multiple affixes.

Just this point alone makes it hard to deal with, and if there's no accident, after another evolution, the Spirit Beast's all skills will likely be further strengthened.

Qin Chuan didn't think that he and Yue Li together could handle an Epic Tier Lv50 with six Hall Tier Lv40 Spirit Beasts, unless…

His Time Stop still works in the Secret Realm.

Just like in the dungeon.

So, he needs to verify this first.

The cost of entering an A-rank Secret Realm is huge.

Verifying with a B-rank Secret Realm is more reliable.

"No problem." Yue Li nodded with a smile.

She also knew how difficult it is for the two of them to handle an Epic-tier Secret Realm at this stage.

The only talent the two can use in battle is Life Prayer, but even that advantage is gone in the Secret Realm.

Although under the influence of Life Prayer's Divine Fate, the two's six contracted Spirit Beasts are the finest, but strength has its limits.

"Let's go straight to the nearest B-rank Five-Star Secret Realm." Qin Chuan glanced at the Secret Realm info and quickly set off with Yue Li.

Not long after, the two arrived at the Secret Realm entrance indicated on the map.

It was a huge rift torn in the void, through which the interior environment could be vaguely seen, and its widest part allowed players and Spirit Beasts to pass through easily.

At that moment, several players stood outside the rift, pointing and whispering about something, seemingly wanting to go in and look, but dared not due to their weak strength.

Seeing Luo and Yue Li arrive, the crowd showed surprise, but no one stepped forward to speak.

"Let's go."

Qin Chuan glanced over the crowd, then without hesitation entered the rift together with Yue Li.

As the two entered, the rift's light instantly dimmed, and a line of text appeared in the void.

【Secret Realm Raid in progress, only Luo Yue Guild members may enter, remaining raid slots: 3】

Luo Yue Guild…

Is this the guild Luo and Yue Li belong to? The onlookers glanced at each other, then silently searched and tried to apply.

If they could cling to such a thick thigh, they could walk sideways in the Dream World thereafter! — "We've received the guild applications! Quite a few."

Yue Li, who had just entered the Secret Realm, smiled and spoke.

"Are those the players from the Secret Realm entrance just now? It seems the guild will be displayed after entering the Secret Realm." Qin Chuan casually clicked one, and upon seeing a familiar name, realized, "Let's leave it for now."

For now there are only 18 guild member slots; we need to have some threshold.

Once the guild ranking rises, we'll carefully pick.

Compared to that, the floating line of text before him concerned him more.

【00:00:47】

He guessed correctly.

After finishing the raid on this Secret Realm shortly, he can try an A-rank Secret Realm.

Epic Tier? I'm here to take on the Epic Tier!

"Hmm." Yue Li nodded, and the two focused their attention on the Secret Realm before them.

The environment inside the Secret Realm is roughly the same as the Dream World.

But the supernatural energy is visibly much richer.

Probably only in such a rich energy environment can more resources and stronger Spirit Beasts be born.

In the midst of thought, an Elite Tier Lv29 Spirit Beast rushed at the two at high speed, already in combat state.

"Boom!" Xiao Zi reacted first, instantly flashing to the opponent's side, then clenched her fists and struck hard.

Star Thunder Strike!

When a Hall Tier faces an Elite Tier, there is no doubt whatsoever.

That Elite Tier Spirit Beast was killed on the spot, but instead of leaving a corpse like a normal Spirit Beast, it turned into light and dissipated.

On the spot, there was only a small pile of over a hundred experience gems and a single Secret Realm Stone.

"Great!" Yue Li hurried forward.

She still had two Contract Spirit Beasts that weren't maxed, so she handed the Secret Realm Stone to Qin Chuan and used up all the experience gems right there.

"No wonder the Hall Tier Spirit Beast ranking's daily settlement doesn't give experience gems." Qin Chuan laughed, "The spirit beasts in the secret realm give even more—what need is there for a daily settlement."

"Exactly!" Yue Li agreed wholeheartedly.

One Elite Tier Spirit Beast yields over a hundred experience gems; killing one or two hundred of them, a single Hall Tier Spirit Beast can directly max out the level.

If they encountered a Hall Tier Spirit Beast, the harvest might be even greater.

The two walked and talked, performing with unusual ease in the perilous B-rank secret realm; among the attacking spirit beasts, low-level Hall Tier ones began to appear occasionally, but facing six Hall Tier Spirit Beasts was still futile—just more experience gems…

And that was it for the Secret Realm Stone.

Finally, the two reached the core area of the B-rank secret realm; the subjugation target, whose rank reached Hall Tier Lv40, made a flashier entrance than the town's spirit beasts, and then was instantly killed in one blow by the ice cream.

The most shocking part of the whole process was probably the rewards spread across the ground after the subjugation target's death.

A full thirty thousand experience gems directly maxed out the levels of Little Red and Little Purple.

The quantity of Secret Realm Stones and Secret Realm Keys, after replenishing the cost of entering the Secret Realm, still had a surplus.

The dropped resources were all kinds, and although they couldn't use them temporarily, exchanging them with Dragon Gate Camp for Special Points was still very worthwhile.

But the most important thing is…

Qin Chuan saw that in the center of the rewards was a familiar, gorgeous crystal.

Hall Crystal.

It dropped with a 10% chance; Qin Chuan was quite self-aware, and this definitely had nothing to do with him.

All that can be said is that after the Fate's Effect failed, Yue Li's luck was still good.

He glanced at the smiling girl beside him, and Qin Chuan withdrew his gaze.

This is probably why a girl who laughs a lot never has bad luck.

Compared to the Hall Crystal Qin Chuan had obtained earlier, this one had a layer of invisible film on its surface that could not be touched, yet it seemed to seal the Hall Crystal's power.

【Hall Crystal (7-day limit): The membrane formed from Secret Realm Power can temporarily block the Hall Crystal's aura, but the membrane cannot last forever; after seven days it disappears, and this Hall Crystal will vanish due to the nature of its super-rare resource.】

So it's time-limited.

Qin Chuan realized.

As the subjugation target died, the surrounding space began to violently churn; this Secret Realm was about to close, and after they had gathered all resources, they were instantly transported outside the Secret Realm's entrance.

Watching the space-time crack gradually close and disappear, Qin Chuan and Yue Li were about to say something when they suddenly saw a pinned message pop up in the global server channel before their eyes.

【Congratulations to Luoyue Guild players Luo and Yue Li for successfully conquering a B-rank 5-star Secret Realm and fortunately obtaining a Hall Crystal!】

Qin Chuan: "..."

Yue Li: "..."

Seeing countless guild applications pop up rapidly before them, the two's expressions became exceedingly strange.

Is this a case of unintentional success, giving the guild publicity?

"Huh?" Yue Li casually checked a few applications, then suddenly let out an exclamation of surprise.

"Luo, look at this!"

She forwarded one application to Qin Chuan.

Just a glance, and Qin Chuan's pupils contracted.
