Chapter 231 - Level-up, Exploring the Undersea, and Challenger-Level Treasures
Buzz!
As soon as Ye Xuan set his foot on the island and before he could find the time to look carefully at the surroundings.
He found the Tidal Treasure Snail on his head suddenly started to shake.
It finally swallowed the Solar and Lunar Elixir Flame Bead that it had been trying so hard to swallow. How surprising it was that it achieved this at such a timing!
Then its energy soared immediately.
"Is it going to level up?"
Ye Xuan was dumbfounded.
He had never expected the Tidal Treasure Snail to level up then.
But it was certainly a good thing that this little darling would finally level up.
It would be much stronger on the peak Silver level than on the high Silver level.
Most importantly, when the Tidal Treasure Snail leveled up, its Real-Time Map would upgrade, too. It would be able to reach farther.
In this way, he would gain more advantage in the remaining trial.
Ye Xuan s.h.i.+fted his consciousness to take the Tidal Treasure Snail back into the Beast Lair while thinking.
He figured it would be better for the Tidal Treasure Snail to stay in the Beast Lair while leveling up.
Boom!
As the Tidal Treasure Snail went back into its Beast Lair, its World of Nothingness started to expand rapidly.
It was one time bigger in the blink of an eye.
Then, soon, the Tidal Treasure Snail"s body quieted down.
Has it succeeded?
A joyful look showed up on Ye Xuan"s face.
He had three combat powers on the peak Silver level by then, including the Evil Fiery Red Luan, Lil Wan, and the Tidal Treasure Snail.
Besides, the Tyrannosaurus had been taking Silver Star Fruits these days.
He was left with dozens of Silver Star Fruits after the trip to the Dragon Horn Planet.
So many Silver Star Fruits would be far than enough for the Tyrannosaurus.
Ye Xuan figured it would not take the Tyrannosaurus very long to achieve the peak Silver level, either.
Maybe the Tyrannosaurus would achieve it in about two days.
"It is two miles, too?"
He had sensed the Tidal Treasure Snail"s level-up. Since it had achieved the peak Silver level, he would be able to call it out two miles away from him.
It was the same with Lil Wan.
As to the Evil Fiery Red Luan, he could call it out about one mile and a half away from him.
"And the Real-Time Map..."
Then Ye Xuan found since the Tidal Treasure Snail had leveled up, its Real-Time Map was able to reach farther, too.
It was able to reach ten kilometers away by then. Its range used to be six kilometers.
If his calculation was right, ten kilometers were about six miles. Or more precisely, it was a little more than six miles.
It would be extremely dreadful that he could know everything happening within a range of six miles.
That meant when he had gone back to Jiangzhou University, if he wanted to know what someone was doing at the moment, he would know it immediately staying in his own villa. He would not even need to go out.
"Eh?"
At this moment, since the Real-Time Map could reach farther, Ye Xuan found he finally could use it to explore the undersea world.
In fact, Ye Xuan had explored the undersea world slightly before.
Although back then, the Tidal Treasure Snail"s Real-Time Map could not reach so far away.
He managed to leave it in the water and let it sink.
However, it was simply too much work.
Besides, the Tidal Treasure Snail"s speed would slow down to a great extent in deep water.
It could not stay close to him all the way.
Therefore, Ye Xuan only took a look at the undersea world to satisfy his curiosity. He took the Tidal Treasure Snail back when he had found there was nothing interested.
But by then, things had been different.
"Eh?"
All of a sudden, Ye Xuan s.h.i.+fted his consciousness.
Through the Tidal Treasure Snail"s Real-Time Map, he found something surprising.
In the sea area adjacent to the iceberg island.
There was a giant dreadful monster. It had a turtle body, a serpent tail, and a serpent head.
The monster was huge.
Excluding its serpent head and serpent tail, its turtle body covered an area of about thirty-eight thousand square yards.
At the same time, from the red dot on the Real-Time Map, Ye Xuan found at a simple glance that the monster turned out to be a Gold-level monster.
"That is..."
He suddenly saw in front of the monster. There was a huge eye of the sea out of which water kept flowing.
And there was a weird bead floating in the eye of the sea.
The bead had some odd patterns on it. He guessed it should be the crystal core of some monster.
And while it was floating in the eye of the sea.
A semi-transparent shadow looked just the same as the monster with a serpent head and a turtle body emerging around it.
"A treasure!"
Ye Xuan took a deep breath.
He sensed a rich aura of treasure from the bead through the Tidal Treasure Snail.
That aura was even different from what the Tidal Treasure Snail had sensed earlier.
Ye Xuan figured the bead down there in the water could even be a Challenger-level treasure.
Because the aura he sensed from the bead through the Tidal Treasure Snail was even much stronger than the Diamond-level Sky Cutting Aura of the Sun and the Moon that he had got earlier.
Could it be a Challenger-level treasure?
Ye Xuan was tempted.
When he achieved the Gold level, most of his beasts would need evolutionary resources on the Challenger level to level up.
If he could get one by then, even though he would not be able to use it, he could take it back to the Cerulean Planet and ask Lin s.h.i.+ru to exchange it for something else.
"So..."
Ye Xuan s.h.i.+fted his consciousness. Through the Real-Time Map, he started to look for the other aura of treasure that the Tidal Treasure Snail had sensed earlier.
"Here!"
Then, very soon, he found through the Real-Time Map that there was a cave on the sunny half of the weird island.
The aura of treasure that the Tidal Treasure Snail had sensed earlier was right in that cave.
And they were a few beads, too.
"They are on the Gold level?"
Ye Xuan was lost in thought.
According to the Tidal Treasure Snail"s sensing, those several beads should be Gold-level treasures.
"Just go ahead!"
Ye Xuan took a deep breath.
He made up his mind.
He was going to have a big go at it here.
"Lil Wan."
Then he s.h.i.+fted his consciousness and let Lil Wan take him to fly into the sky over the weird island.
He would have to check the attributes of the serpents and turtles living on the island first before he really did anything.
Whoos.h.!.+
Ye Xuan called Obscurus out when he had landed at a peak on the island.
He told Obscurus to exert the Obscure Shadow Fog to shroud him in the fog so that no one could detect his energy from outside.
Then he looked at the turtles and serpents staying in a valley or on the beach one by one.
[Dark Water Ancient Turtle: Three Stars
Beast Level: Silver (Peak)
Abilities: Ancient Black Water Technique, Ancient Turtle Armor
Evolution Path: Four-Star Gold-Level Ancient Turtle Serpent Beast
After achieving the Gold level, it can choose a Black Water Serpent on the peak Silver level to merge with it. In this way, it will evolve.]
[Dark Water Ancient Serpent: Three Stars
Beast Level: Silver (Peak)
Abilities: Ancient Black Water Technique, Ancient Serpent Formation
Evolution Path: Four-Star Gold-Level Ancient Serpent Turtle Beast
After achieving the Gold level, it can make a Black Water Ancient Turtle merge in its body.]
"That thing…"
Ye Xuan was stupefied by the attributes of the two types of beasts.
He had never imagined these two types of beasts could rise in stars in such a manner after achieving the Gold level.
"So, the giant monster down there was a Gold-level Ancient Turtle Serpent Beast or a Gold-level Ancient Serpent Turtle Beast?"
Ye Xuan finally figured out what the giant monster in the sea below the island was.
The unknown was the most dreadful.
He instantly felt relieved after having figured out what it was.
Besides, he had experience with fighting against Gold-level beasts in the Bujin Mountain area.
He even fought against more than one Gold-level beast there.
In such circ.u.mstances, he was not so afraid anymore.
"This giant thing was six miles deep in the sea. Even a Gold-level beast will need one minute or so to reach the surface of the water!"
Then Ye Xuan started to use the Tidal Treasure Snail to calculate the total combat power in the valley.
"Six Dark Water Ancient Turtles on the peak Silver level. Seven Dark Water Ancient Serpents on the peak Silver level."
"And among the other Dark Water Ancient Turtles and Dark Water Ancient Serpents, there are twenty-five on the high Silver level, sixty-two on the intermediate Silver level, one hundred and thirty-six on the low Silver level, and thirty-three on the Bronze level."
Ye Xuan took a deep breath.
He found after investigation that the monsters on this island were much more than the Swooping Neptunian Birds he had seen earlier indeed.
He did a rough calculation.
He would get six hundred and eighty-two points if he could kill all of the monsters living on this island.
Plus the three hundred and thirty-two points he had got earlier. His total points would amount to more than one thousand.
"Guys, I will count on you!"
Ye Xuan took a deep breath.
Then he s.h.i.+fted his consciousness to call out all of his beasts except the Big Dream Sleeping Rock in the valley far away.
He would go tough in this battle!
Since the Tidal Treasure Snail had leveled up, he was more confident.
Growl!
Instantly, as the Tyrannosaurus showed up in the valley, it exerted the Sky Tyrannosaurus Roar under the effect of Ye Xuan"s G.o.d"s Aid.
In a second.
None of the Dark Water Ancient Serpents and the Dark Water Ancient Turtles there knew what was happening.
They were all shocked and intimidated.
Whoos.h.!.+
Whoos.h.!.+
Whoos.h.!.+
Whoos.h.!.+
Then the four Tidal Treasure Snails, all of which had achieved the peak Silver level, acted.
They showed up next to four Dark Water Ancient Turtles on the peak Silver level and Dark Water Ancient Serpents on the peak Silver level.
Puff!
Puff!
Puff!
Puff!
In the blink of an eye, the four monsters on the peak Silver level died tragically under the four Tidal Treasure Snails" attacks.
All of them were decapitated.
"Divine Techniques of the Elves, Ancient Wood Mastery!"
Lil Wan showed up in the rearmost area.
Holding the G.o.ddess"s Truncheon in hand, she moved it in an arc.
When the Dark Water Ancient Turtles and Dark Water Ancient Serpents had realized what was happening, she maneuvered the ancient trees in the valley.
The ancient trees became extremely firm and tenacious in a second.
Their branches bent down to the ground. Their root hairs started to grow.
They became alive as if one and another tree monsters. They used their branches, leaves, and root hairs to entangle the Dark Water Ancient Turtles and the Dark Water Ancient Serpents.
Then, the elves fighting together with Lil Wan all flew out.
Some of them started close combat.
And others launched a long-distance attack.
