Qin Xiao transmigrated into a world where dimensional secret realms had merged. It was an alternate urban world where the entire populace made contracts with beasts. After turning 18, everyone woul...
After leaving the training room, the group, including the beast tamers, formed a long line.
The entrance to this dimensional secret realm is located at the center of the building.
It still has a mirror-like surface that ripples like water, but the frame is silver.
After being checked by the guards, Xie Qingyun led the group in single file.
In the blink of an eye, Qin Xiao and the others appeared on a plain.
According to the previous map, they were located directly south of this narrow, secret realm.
You need to traverse a plain of shrubs, then cross a vast forest, and finally reach the lake in the center.
Once you get there, you might encounter centaur-like creatures.
Centaur beasts almost all live in the forests and plains of the north.
Upon entering the secret realm, everyone became alert.
Even the carefree blond-haired guy turned serious.
As planned, Xie Qingyun and Wang Yan went first.
Qin Xiao naturally followed behind, followed by Zhang Ze and Huang Da.
The distance between the people in front, middle and back was roughly ten meters.
The area ahead has been scouted and is not very dangerous, so the group is moving quickly.
Along the way, they killed some small exotic beasts, such as prairie rats and fox wolves.
Around 4 p.m., the group had already traveled more than 30 kilometers.
The immediate priority is to find a suitable place to camp, in order to avoid being attacked in the rush of the night.
A good campsite is a very important lesson in surviving in remote areas.
After more than an hour of trekking and selection, Xie Qingyun finally settled on a sheltered earthen hollow.
After all, this is a plain, so there's no way to find giant trees or caves.
This gully is backed by a gentle slope, with no rivers or protruding rocks around it.
The ground is made of gravel, which is quite hard.
With a wide field of vision, there's no need to worry about snakes or insects on the ground, or attacks from strange beasts near the water source.
Once a location was chosen, they set up camp, leveled the ground, and gathered wood to start a fire.
Each person took out their own tent and sleeping bag, and finally took out ready-to-eat food to eat and feed the beasts.
Generally speaking, food is not cooked in the wild in secret realms.
They all ate prepared compressed biscuits and the like.
These foods take up little space and prevent beasts from attacking them because of the aroma of cooking.
Qin Xiao took out various vacuum-packed cooked foods, fruits, canned goods, and snacks from the contract space.
The five men paused in their munching on compressed biscuits, then looked at Qin Xiao with resentment.
Bai Ling was enjoying a peach.
Qin Xiao paused, holding the braised beef in his hand. "How about we eat some together?"
Xie Qingyun walked over with a cigarette in her mouth, picked up two packets of braised beef, a can of fish, and an apple from the ground.
"The nutrition is quite balanced; the Contract Space is truly amazing."
Before leaving, he remarked, but those words sounded a bit sour.
Seeing that Xie Qingyun had taken it, the others gathered around and each picked out some things.
"Take whatever you want, I haven't prepared anything else, I have plenty of food."
Qin Xiao took a bite of beef and muttered something.
Having acquired a huge contract space for storing things, he really didn't consider anything else but food.
People need food to survive.
In Bai Ling's flower sea grassland contract space, the dozen or so shelves are not just for show.
He spent tens of thousands of yuan yesterday.
Everyone enjoyed the meal, and Qin Xiao himself ate until his belly was round and full.
By then, it had gotten dark.
Qin Xiao and Huang Ya had to stay on duty until midnight, so they went straight into their tent to sleep.
With the sleeping bag spread out, Bai Ling's body grew larger, and Qin Xiao comfortably lay in his arms.
It feels so good.
Goodnight, Bai Ling.
Goodnight, Master.
Outside the camp, the only sounds were the crackling of burning wood from the campfire and the howling of the wind.
Xie Qingyun's Black Demon Eagle stood to one side, occasionally flying up into the sky and then landing again.
The shadow cat quietly blended into the night, strolling gracefully around.
It was almost midnight.
The ground trembled slightly, and small pebbles tumbled up.
Xie Qingyun immediately issued a warning.
"Enemy attack!!"
The shaking intensified instantly, and in the blink of an eye, the ground cracked and churned.
A huge, deep red maw burst from the ground and swallowed the campfire and a large amount of soil in one gulp.
When Xie Qingyun gave the warning, everyone immediately rushed out of the tent.
Qin Xiao also rushed out immediately.
Just then, I saw the unknown beast burst out of the ground and swallow the campfire.
Then it slammed down on the gravel and frantically burrowed into the ground.
Bai Ling immediately swelled and grew larger.
"Master! Get on my back!"
Qin Xiao flipped himself over and simultaneously recited the information he had just obtained.
"Earth-Splitting Earthworm, Silver Six-Star, its skill is burrowing!"
Upon hearing his words, Xie Qingyun immediately gave the order.
"Scatter! Everyone scatter! Zhang Ze, be careful, your beast has the highest heat level, watch out for attacks!"
Zhang Ze's tamed beast was an Iron-Horned Bull, which was huge, emitted a lot of heat, and was not very agile.
Bai Ling carried Qin Xiao, leaping over ten meters to stand on top of the earthen slope.
A thin crack arched up on the west side.
"Master, they're coming from the west!"
Beast tamers have much better eyesight than humans.
"Watch out, to the west!"
Qin Xiao immediately issued a warning.
The west side was where Tiejiaoniu and Zhang Ze were located.
"Huang Ya, prepare to provide support!"
As Xie Qingyun spoke, she sent her black cat out.
However, to be honest, there are no powerful damage skills for creatures of this size.
Shadowcat isn't very useful.
"Captain, I'll hold off this bug while you attack."
Although Zhang Ze has a stoic expression, he can be quite irritable when he does things.
Upon seeing the earthworm-like creature charging towards him, he immediately decided to use it as bait to hold it back.
After all, his Iron Horned Bull wasn't so easy to swallow.
Before Xie Qingyun could even respond, the earthworm-like beast broke through the ground and lunged at the Ironhorn Bull.
Ironhorn Bull was no pushover either; it charged straight at you with its horns raised.
At the same time, the skill charge was activated.
Although the distance wasn't enough, the earthworm's large mouth, covered with spiral barbs, was knocked askew.
The Ironhorn Bull itself was also bitten on the head and shoulders.
The two beasts collided and then separated.
Without being told, Bai Ling's foxfire and Huang Ya's fire lizard's fire breath immediately attacked.
The bluish-white foxfire, controlled by Bai Ling, floated into the earthworm's mouth.
The fire salamander's fire breath, on the other hand, sprays directly at the earthworm's body.
The earthworm let out a scream, and a huge sound wave created a gust of air that blew outwards.
A strong, putrid stench filled the air.
Ironhorn Bull stood up at this moment; his injury only fueled his fighting spirit.
Its hooves pounded the ground, it panted heavily through its nose, and it charged again with its massive, steel-blade-like horns raised.
This time, the earthworm's rolling body was knocked sideways and completely detached from the ground.
"Bai Ling, continue!"
Bai Ling once again condensed two balls of foxfire and shot them at the earthworm.
The foxfire that the other party had consumed earlier went out just before it was about to burn through their body.
The most troublesome thing about this creature is its strong vitality and lack of any vital organs.
Even when broken in two, it can still move and attack.
Otherwise, the first foxfire alone would have killed it.
At this moment, the fire salamander stopped breathing fire, and the entire surface of the earthworm turned black.
However, judging from the flesh and blood beneath the charred shell and the struggling body, it was clearly not fatal.
Qin Xiao secretly controlled the roots of the Jianmu tree to emerge from the ground, piercing into the opponent's body and holding it firmly.
Two, three, four, and more bluish-white foxfire shot onto the earthworm's enormous body, burning it incessantly.
Huang Ya's fire lizard also began to breathe fire.
The rest of the men stood guard around the perimeter.
After all, this thing is indeed a bit troublesome.
Their tamed beasts are either incapable of causing damage or require close combat.
If you try to burn earthworms right now, you'll get roasted if you get too close.
Bai Ling's foxfire almost instantly creates a bloody hole, making it far more lethal than the fire lizard's breath attack.
Only after the earthworm's body was burned and riddled with holes did Qin Xiao quietly remove the roots of the Jianmu tree.
