Chapter 432 - The Challenger Level and the Illuminating Stone Monkey
Boom!
Ye Xuan"s Spirit Ocean was buzzing violently. Energy from the reverse nurturing of his beasts kept flowing into him like one vast river after another, and his Spirit Ocean seemed like a real ocean that could hold numerous rivers.
At this moment, the energy that had flowed into him like rivers gathered together. Its abundance led to a qualitative change.
It kept pus.h.i.+ng back the coastline of Ye Xuan"s Spirit Ocean. In this way, his Spirit Ocean expanded so much that it seemed boundless.
Over his Spirit Ocean, there was a gray fog filled with mystery.
In the blink of an eye, Ye Xuan"s Spirit Ocean expanded more than ten times.
That made him achieve the Challenger level from the Master level in one go.
That was how the Challenger level felt?
Feeling the abundant power in his Spirit Ocean, Ye Xuan was very surprised.
He was surprised at the huge difference between the Master level and the Challenger level.
However…
He focused his consciousness on the exchange list of the Dragon Palace of the Azure Sea in his head as soon as he detected the change in him.
He remembered clearly that the True Transmission Token of the Dragon Palace of the Azure Sea had sent him a message not long ago.
It told him he would get a Golden Dragon of Luck as long as he could achieve the Challenger level.
Buzz!
The Trial Taker"s token of the Translucent Secret Realm suddenly buzzed while Ye Xuan was thinking that. It generated many runes that flew out of his body. They connected to each other to form a divine s.h.i.+ne and got branded into the air nearby.
And Ye Xuan was shrouded in the formation.
"That is..."
Ye Xuan turned pale. He seemed to ȧssociate the formation with something. By pointing with his finger, he opened a s.p.a.ce tunnel around him immediately and let out ten-odd Legend-level Beast Tamers from there.
"Ye Xuan!"
Next to him, Lin s.h.i.+ru called him in an inquiring voice while reaching for him anxiously.
"It is the Translucent Secret Realm!" Ye Xuan said, extending his hands.
He was rendered helpless. The Translucent Secret Realm wanted him to go there so eagerly when he had bȧrėly achieved the Challenger level. That was more than what he had antic.i.p.ated.
It did not even give him any time to prepare.
"As if I would achieve the Legend level from the Challenger level immediately."
The moment he finished speaking, the mysterious runes flickering around him suddenly drew him into the void.
Only his shadow was left behind, fading out little by little.
Ye Xuan had just called out twelve Legend-level Beast Tamers from the inner world of the Tree of World.
Lin s.h.i.+ru knitted her brows in the meeting room, but there was nothing she could do except hope Ye Xuan could come back safely.
At this moment Ye Xuan had arrived at the palace where he had been many times after flas.h.i.+ng across the air.
He landed on the flagstone closest to the transparent stone coffin at the center of the palace.
The Illuminating Spirit Monkey lying quietly in the coffin was right in front of him.
In the meantime, the yellowish talisman stuck to the coffin was s.h.i.+ning. Printed on it were nine ancient and mysterious characters, which he could not read.
Those nine ancient characters looked especially brilliant and dazzling. Printed on the talisman-like stars spreading out in the night sky, each of them was written with vigorous brushstrokes and giving off vast energy. They looked extraordinary.
"What is happening?"
Ye Xuan was puzzled.
Every time he came here, he would receive a voice message from that mysterious man immediately, and in this way, he would know what to do.
But this time, that mysterious voice did not come.
His surrounding was so quiet.
Only the ancient talisman in front of him was s.h.i.+ning and giving off an extraordinary and mysterious vibe.
"What is this supposed to mean? Should I take this down?"
Ye Xuan set his eyes on that ancient talisman, confused.
What would happen if he took the talisman down?
Would the Illuminating Spirit Monkey in the coffin jump out of there?
However, he stopped halfway.
It just felt too weird.
Buzz!
All of a sudden…
While he was hesitating, the ancient talisman s.h.i.+ning in front of him suddenly sprang up into the air from the coffin and flew straight toward him.
"What the h——?"
Ye Xuan was appalled.
Before he could react, that talisman flew across the air and shrouded him in its mysterious vibe.
He felt as if time was pa.s.sing more slowly around him.
The talisman flew onto his forehead and got stuck to it.
Then Ye Xuan"s eyes glazed over.
Crossing his legs, he sat down slowly on the ground in front of the coffin-like puppet and made mudras with his hands to create strange symbols one after another. Those symbols kept changing as if they had been out of his control.
Buzz. Buzz. Buzz.
In the meantime, the coffin in front of Ye Xuan started to buzz.
Whoos.h.!.+
Soon, the Illuminating Stone Monkey lying quietly in the coffin suddenly opened its eyes. With golden divine lights s.h.i.+ning in its eyes, it broke the coffin after a leap.
Then it leaped out of the coffin. Scratching its chin, it walked around Ye Xuan and looked at him with curiosity.
"Who is this? What is this place? Where am I?" The monkey murmured, reaching for the ancient talisman on Ye Xuan"s forehead.
It intended to take the talisman down but found it impossible, because the talisman seemed to be a part of Ye Xuan"s forehead.
No matter how hard the monkey tried, it just did not work.
And Ye Xuan was sitting on the ground as steady as a mountain. No matter what the monkey did to him, he just would not fall.
"Is this really a human? How come he doesn"t move at all?"
The monkey gave Ye Xuan two kicks in the ȧss, but he remained motionless. The monkey heard two clangs instead as if what it had kicked was metal instead of a human.
The man felt so hard that the monkey could not help but rub its foot with its little paw. It threw Ye Xuan an odd look.
Then the monkey stopped studying Ye Xuan. Instead, it started to explore the palace.
However, there was no way to leave the palace at all. Lightning and thunder were striking over the gate. No matter how it scratched its head, the monkey just could not work out any solution.
After strolling around several times, it came back to Ye Xuan in the end.
Seeing Ye Xuan motionless, it could not help but play a prank on him. The monkey threw out its ċhėst and grabbed something between its legs. It was going to pee on Ye Xuan.
It hurt a lot to kick Ye Xuan because he felt like metal.
So the monkey was going to avenge itself for that.
Ye Xuan was not even breathing at the moment.
That made the monkey wonder whether he was just a statue.
