“I won’t be driven out as long as I stay in the relic?”

Ye Xuan glanced over through the Tidal Treasure Snail’s Real-Time Map after he entered the relic through the space tunnel shining with lights.

He instantly found that this relic was a little different from the outside world, where space nodes were densely deployed. There were not so many space nodes here.

That meant he no longer had to keep an eye on those space nodes and try to avoid them all the time like before.

“Let’s seek some treasures.”

He shifted his consciousness and sensed the auras of treasures spreading in different parts of the relic through the Tidal Treasure Snail’s treasure-seeking ability.

“Let’s go!”

After sensing those auras of treasures, he told the Tree of World to take him to where there were the most auras.

Whoosh!

The air was torn open, and the nine colors spread. Ye Xuan disappeared from there right away.

Whoosh!

Then, not long after his energy had disappeared, a figure with strong energy showed up in the relic, too.

It was An Gucheng, a Legend-level Beast Tamer from the Holy-Eyed Clan.

“Finally in here.”

He was relieved after entering the relic.

He had evidently felt a great repulsive force against him in the space around him before he came into the relic.

If he had not left fast enough, he would have been transmitted back to the Legend-level area.

At the same time, it was also thanks to the location of the relic, which was not very far away from the Legend-level area.

Otherwise, if it were very far away, he absolutely would not have been able to enter here.

“A Challenger-level relic?”

A thrill flashed across his face.

He wondered whether he could find any useful treasure here.

As to the potential danger, he was not worried about that.

He was sure he was strong enough to be invincible in this relic.

He could defeat whoever he wanted to defeat.

No one would be able to compete against him for the treasures here.

When a Beast Tamer on a higher level entered an area on a lower level, things would be extremely easy for him.

After all, treasures in relics in a low-level area were not necessarily also low-level.

…

Whoosh!

A branch with green leaves moved across the air and, shining with crystal glows, showed up in some ruins.

Whoosh!

Upon the arrival, Ye Xuan waved his hand carelessly and created an opening in the ruins. Then he took a black iron box out of there.

He grasped the iron box and then left it suspended in the air in front of him. He opened it with his mind. In a burst of lights, he saw three golden beads in the iron box.

“What beads are these?”

Ye Xuan took a few glances at the three beads, but he failed to figure out what they were.

What he knew was all of the three beads were treasures. They were all Challenger-level evolutionary resources.

The three beads might not be very useful to him.

But when he had taken them, he found his Luck Points had increased a little.

Well, just a little.

However, he apparently could make his Luck Points grow by collecting a great number of treasures.

He could almost find everything on the exchange list of the Dragon Palace of the Azure Sea.

Therefore, he just needed to focus on increasing his Luck Points for the potential exchanges.

“Eh?”

When Ye Xuan had taken the three golden beads and left them in his storage ring, all of a sudden.

He shifted his consciousness and found through the Tidal Treasure Snail’s Real-Time Map that more than ten Challenger-level Beast Tamers had shown up together tens of thousands of miles away from him.

At the same time, there was something more surprising for him.

The ten-odd Challenger-level Beast Tamers were from various clans and even various alliances.

Besides, apart from Challenger-level Beast Tamers from the Alliance of Ten Thousand Planets and the Silver Blood Alliance, there were also Beast Tamers that were not members of these two alliances.

“What is happening there?”

Ye Xuan was surprised.

He had no idea how those people had got together.

At the same time, he also saw a small snow-white beast standing on the head of a Three-Eyed Challenger-level Beast Tamer through the Real-Time Map.

However, according to the Tidal Treasure Snail, the small snow-white beast was only a Master-level living creature.

Therefore, it did not attract much of his attention. He stopped paying attention to it only after a glance.

“Eh?”

In the meantime, tens of thousands of miles away, the small snow-white beast moved its ears while the Tidal Treasure Snail was sensing it.

As if it had detected something.

Its ears stood up immediately.

And the small snow-white beast looked in the direction where Ye Xuan was, intentionally or unintentionally.

However, Ye Xuan did not notice that.

He frowned after finding more than ten Challenger-level Beast Tamers were gathering there. Then he traveled in a different direction.

He came to the Challenger-level area to seek treasures.

So, he was not going to hunt Challenger-level Beast Tamers from the two alliances here.

Besides, he was still not strong enough to deal with Challenger-level Beast Tamers.

Unless he turned to the Level-Up Gate.

The thing was, the times he could use the Level-Up Gate were limited.

And he already used it five times the day before.

He was actually not feeling very confident because of that.

Therefore, unless it was necessary, he did not want to turn to the Level-Up Gate again for the moment.

He only wanted to find as many treasures as possible in this Secret Realm with his usual strength.

For him, what mattered most in the current phase was not credits but how to achieve the Challenger level as soon as possible.

As to credits…

He killed hundreds of Master-level Beast Tamers alone and turned the tide. That was already good enough.

As long as he could offer some suitable evolutionary recipes before the formal election of the alliance leader, he figured he would certainly be elected.

Unless others could also donate things as precious as his donations, which were treasures for the Great Xia.

“What was that just now?”

The small weird beast’s eyes flashed with doubt when Ye Xuan had left.

It had evidently sensed the spying of a pair of eyes.

However, those eyes looked away in a second.

But that was still something it could not ignore.

It had great sensing skills.

Nothing within a range of three thousand miles could escape from it.

However, it had not detected anything within this range.

That made its hair stand on end.

It realized it might have met something powerful.

“Interesting.”

A smile lifted the corners of its lips.

The small snow-white beast was called the Seal Beast.

It could seal other living creatures’ techniques and transfer them onto itself.

So, naturally, it was most interested in living creatures with mysterious techniques. The more mysterious, the better.

“I’ll figure out what you are!”

The Seal Beast waved its paw. Instantly, some mysterious symbols started to gather in the air and finally turned into the symbol of the Eight Trigrams that unfolded in front of it. With its eyes closed, it kept reciting something as if it was deducing.

“Tidal… Treasure Snail… Ye Xuan…”

Soon, its eyes lit up, and it spoke the human language.

It had deduced who Ye Xuan was.

“The Real-Time Map on the intermediate Master level can detect things twenty thousand miles away?”

The Seal Beast’s eyes lit up again when it had learned about Ye Xuan’s identity and the Tidal Treasure Snail’s abilities.

It felt really lucky.

Because it ran into such a strong beast as soon as it appeared in this world.

“The Master level…”

A gleam showed up in its eyes.

It got a plan against Ye Xuan immediately.

In its eyes, its plan was flawless.

No matter what, Ye Xuan was only a Beast Tamer on the Master level.

But it had enslaved more than ten Challenger-level Beast Tamers.

It would be easy-peasy for those ten-odd Challenger-level Beast Tamers to handle Ye Xuan.

Even if Ye Xuan was as good as a Challenger-level Beast Tamer, he still would lose.

“Ye Xuan has the Real-Time Map, so as long as these Challenger-level Beast Tamers are staying with me, he absolutely won’t approach me. In that case, I will have to set up a trap to attract him. To deal with beasts that can seek treasures, a trap is the best way.”

“You… Give me your Challenger-level evolutionary resources.”

The Seal Beast waited for a while.

When it had been sure that Ye Xuan had been far away and could in no way find out what it was doing or detect the auras of treasures there.

It told those Challenger-level Beast Tamers.

They did not dare ignore the small snow-white beast’s order.

So, they gave it all of their evolutionary resources right away.

The small snow-white beast waved its paw after taking those evolutionary resources. A mysterious seal immediately showed up, which sealed all of those evolutionary resources in it.

“Let’s go!”

Then it told those people to leave for the next destination.

To find more Challenger-level Beast Tamers for it to enslave.

At this point, there were almost people from all forces in its team.

Therefore, whenever it found some Beast Tamers, it would tell their clansmen in its team to take it up to them, and then it would use the same trick to enslave them. That was fast and easy.

Very soon, its team expanded from ten-odd people to twenty-odd people.

Legend-level Beast Tamers were very strong.

However, an ordinary Legend-level Beast Tamer would not be a rival for more than twenty Challenger-level Beast Tamers.

After all, most Challenger-level Beast Tamers had more than one Challenger-level beast.

Therefore, to deal with so many Challenger-level Beast Tamers, even a Legend-level Beast Tamer would have to wait until they split up to attack them separately.

At the moment, with more than twenty Challenger-level Beast Tamers in its team, the Seal Beast felt it could even deal with a Legend-level Beast Tamer without using any trick.

However, it did not want to rush.

When it had enslaved more than twenty people, it went on looking for more Challenger-level Beast Tamers in this Secret Realm.

It was not easy to find such a great place.

It was going to enslave all of the Challenger-level Beast Tamers in this Secret Realm.

While looking for the other Challenger-level Beast Tamers, it did not forget to deduce Ye Xuan’s location in order not to run into him.

It did not want Ye Xuan to find anything unusual and leave this relic before it acted.

While it was doing that, it also found Xie Lihai from the Crab Spirit Planet, who entered this place only not long ago.

And it applied the slave seal to him successfully.

“Eh? A Legend-level Beast Tamer?”

While looking for more Challenger-level Beast Tamers, it suddenly sensed a Legend-level Beast Tamer’s presence in this place.

That made it frown slightly.

Its slave seal enabled it to go beyond its level to contract with Challenger-level Beast Tamers.

However, the slave seal did not work on Legend-level Beast Tamers.

Therefore, after thinking, it decided to avoid An Gucheng from the Holy-Eyed Clan.

It was not going to bring more troubles to itself before it enslaved Ye Xuan and snatched the Tidal Treasure Snail’s abilities.

“Time to act!”

After strolling around in the relic, it felt very satisfied looking at the thirty-odd Challenger-level Beast Tamers from various clans following it.

It would be a piece of cake for those thirty-odd Challenger-level Beast Tamers to deal with Ye Xuan.

After all, he was just a Master-level Beast Tamer. How strong could he be?

Then it took out all of the Challenger-level evolutionary resources it had confiscated from those Beast Tamers.
