Chapter 111 I Want to Be a Salted Fish



Song Yu and Bai Yuhan were talking at a distance, about ten meters between them.

As top beastmasters who have been roaming in various wilderness areas and secret realms for many years, Mr. Jin and his two companions can summon ninth-level contracted beasts too quickly through conditioned reflex.

And when the three of them appeared, they happened to be between Song Yu and Bai Yuhan.

Therefore, Song Yu and Bai Yuhan had no time to get together and escape.

They could only go left and right and disperse.

Song Yu quickly passed through the space gate, and what he saw was a large area of ​​lush moss, dark green, light green, and fluffy. Various mosses were densely packed, and a large area completely covered the entire red soil.

Without a map or any other positioning device, Song Yu had no idea where this place was.

...She could only rely on her intuition to let Quanquan shuttle through the space gate multiple times, and shake off the old man Jin and others who might be following behind as quickly as possible.

The ninth-level alien beast's use of space gap energy is naturally incomparable to other levels of space-based alien beasts.

Even space beasts of other levels... have no way of locating and tracking the space gate of the ninth-level space beast.

But if a ninth-order beast fights against another ninth-order beast, the situation will be different. Although it may not be possible to accurately locate the other party, it can still use the slight changes in space when the space gate is opened to sense the other party.

Just now, when Mr. Jin and the other two came out of the space gate...

The first thing Song Yu saw was the six-winged void snake that slowly emerged from the space gate.

The six-winged void snake shrank in size and lay on Old Man Jin's shoulder. Its three pairs of wings were golden like a flying bird, but its snake head with a single horn looked coldly and silently at her and Bai Yuhan. With every flap of the six-winged void snake's wings, pieces of golden feathers would slowly fall down with the movement of its wings, like golden snowflakes.

This extraordinary image that can change the environment can only be achieved by a ninth-level monster!

As the most top-notch bloodline among void-type beasts, the six-winged void snake's comprehension of space-related skills is beyond the reach of ordinary beasts.

thus.

At that moment, Song Yu and Bai Yuhan came to the same conclusion in their minds at the same time.

Escape! Escape in all directions!

The only way for the two of them to have a chance to get rid of each other is to flee separately!

As long as the other party hesitates slightly during the pursuit, it will increase their chances of escape.

But Song Yu also knew...

As a ninth-order space-type monster, Quanquan's abilities are much stronger than Bai Yuhan's sixth-order void dragon.

"...According to the rules of novels, the villain boss will definitely not chase a villain like me. I estimate that more than 80% of the three people will choose to chase Bai Yuhan... and only about 20% will choose to act separately." Song Yu frowned, with deep worry in his eyes.

Should she go back to find Bai Yuhan?

Even if she found one, she still couldn't defeat it... Think about the dozens of ninth-level beasts that the other three summoned in an instant...

Song Yu felt overwhelmed. Her moist, pink lips were bitten, leaving two teeth marks. Her wet eyes grew even darker. She stared at the rising sun and the clouds, stained with a pale golden hue. The clouds shifted and morphed with the breeze in the secret realm, forming clusters of different shapes, just like her own mood, turning and turning, becoming increasingly anxious.

Until the end...

Song Yu gritted his teeth and stamped his feet fiercely: "Oh, forget it! I'd better go back and take a look!"

She knows...

In the original book, Bai Yuhan has been secretly rewarded by the Yan and Jin families in the underground black market for a large sum of money, all for the sake of the Eyes of Rules.

In the article, the old man of the Jin family and the old man of the Yan family are the final bosses.

They were both the world's top ninth-rank beastmasters, and were usually accompanied by many family members, some eighth-rank, some ninth-rank. If they could manage to stay together, it would all depend on Bai Yuhan's experience around the world, and his contracts with various powerful dragon beasts. In the government-built Valley of Rebirth alone, there were six or seven dragon beasts willing to contract with Bai Yuhan, plus the dragon beasts that Bai Yuhan had bred himself after he reached adulthood...

By the time the novel reaches its end, the opponent is surrounded by more than a dozen giant dragons who can protect him and help him take revenge.

But now those dragons... most of them don't even have a shadow!

Song Yu murmured: "If I don't go back now, there is a 99% chance that Bai Yuhan will be caught by them..."

"If Bai Yuhan is caught by them now, he will definitely suffer a lot."

"Without a powerful contracted beast, Bai Yuhan, who possesses the Eye of Rules, is like fish on the chopping board, with only one way to go, and that is death."

She did not forget that if others wanted to transplant the Eye of Rules, they would have to kill the original owner of the eyes. Otherwise, as long as the original owner found a healing beast and repaired the eyes, the Eye of Rules would return to the original owner's eyes.

"But, if I run back right now... that's not helping, it's giving Big Boss a free appetizer!"

Song Yu scratched her head, and her two beautiful willow-shaped eyebrows became more and more furrowed... It's true that she is a salted fish, but being a salted fish doesn't mean being a fool.

Song Yu's eyelashes trembled slightly, and her watery eyes were full of thought.

Finally, she clapped her hands and immediately decided to handle the matter in the same way that ordinary high school students handle campus incidents.

When high school students encounter danger, the best solution is to seek help from teachers!

"I will now use the space gate to travel through time and find the examiner..."

"Teacher Lei, as the examiner for China and the leader of this Six Nations Secret Realm Assessment Tournament, will definitely lead someone to handle this matter."

"I just need to pretend I don't know the identities of these three people. Using my identity as a candidate, I can report to the organizers that someone is targeting the candidates from the six nations and disrupting this Six Nations Secret Realm Assessment Tournament... The organizers will definitely send a large number of people to search for these three people."

The reason why so many examiners of the Six Kingdoms Secret Realm Assessment Tournament stayed at the entrance of the secret realm was not only to support the candidates who encountered various dangers in the secret realm at any time, but also to ensure that no other unfamiliar forces would intervene in the Six Kingdoms Secret Realm Assessment Tournament and affect the fairness and impartiality of the assessment tournament.

Especially top-notch ninth-level beastmasters like Grandpa Jin and Grandpa Yan.

Entering a place like the Six Kingdoms Secret Realm Assessment Competition, facing candidates who are only in their teens and twenties, wouldn't it be a massacre?

This is disrupting the order in the examination room, right!

Although this way of handling things may not be what Bai Yuhan wants to see.

Over the years, the other party has made a lot of efforts to hide the Eye of Rules.

But in Song Yu's view, once a person is gone, he is really gone...there is nothing more important than a person.

Song Yu frowned. She had already prepared herself for the possibility of her friends turning against each other and for the devilish advice from the various instructors in the training camp, especially Teacher Qin.

Song Yu pursed her lips, and her beautiful facial features were twisted into a wrinkle.

She had originally planned to remain quietly in the cave and survive the entire assessment. Now, not only did she have to travel back and forth, but she also had to go to great lengths to get the examiners of this secret realm assessment to come to her rescue without exposing Bai Yuhan's Eye of Rules.

Song Yu's dead eyes: ...

She's so tired. How long has it been since she did this kind of thankless work?

If this had happened in the past, she would have quit long ago.

But not only was she unable to lie down at this moment, she was also extremely irritable, and the worry hidden in her heart could not be concealed no matter how hard she tried.

Time waits for no one.

She must help Bai Yuhan get rid of the pursuers behind him as soon as possible.

The tragic scene of Bai Yuhan being caught by the Jin and Yan families and having his eyes gouged out flashed through his mind.

Song Yu held the little silver-gray mouse tightly in his arms and said, "Hurry, hurry! Circle, let's leave the secret realm immediately. I want to go find Teacher Lei Pengguo!"

The silver-gray, furry little mouse tilted its head to look at Song Yu's chin, twitched its pink ears, and without a word, simply raised its hand and waved. A spatial portal large enough for two people to pass through quickly appeared before Song Yu. As a contracted beast, Quanquan could use his mental power to accurately sense Song Yu's current anxiety.

Gray ripples appeared around the small space gate. These were the energy fluctuations caused by the space being broken by the circles.

These energy fluctuations are precisely controlled by Quanquan using his skills within a small area. They will not spread everywhere like other lower-level space-type monsters, nor will they cause errors or deviations due to inaccurate positioning.

As long as it is a place that Quanquan has been to, or a location that can be seen on the map, it can use the space gate to quickly travel back and forth.

Dadada...

Song Yu exerted force with his legs and ran quickly into the space gate.

When Song Yu passed through the space gate and appeared at the entrance of the red soil tundra secret realm.

But he found that the original entrance and exit of the Red Soil Secret Realm was now completely closed for some reason!

Only a space crack several tens of meters high appeared at the original entrance and exit.

The crack seemed to have slid down from the clouds in the sky, like a thin line about two or three centimeters thick, straight and connecting the sky and the earth.

Song Yu: “!!!!”

Song Yu was shocked, her eyes widened, and she was a little suspicious if there was something wrong with her eyes.

The scene at the entrance was exactly the same as when Song Yu had entered two days earlier. Most importantly, there were more than a dozen people who looked like candidates at the entrance. Some had blond hair and blue eyes, while others had black hair and black eyes. After a quick glance at the colors of their armbands, Song Yu accurately spotted a girl wearing the same red and yellow armband as her.

The girl had her hair tied in a ponytail and stood next to a high-level wolf-like monster, looking warily at the candidates from other countries around her.

The look on her face was one of panic and extreme vigilance. The girl was like a newly injured puppy, always alert to the pedestrians and strange animals around her.

Song Yu didn't dare to waste time and quickly took two steps forward to ask, "Classmate, do you know what's going on? Why is the entrance to the secret realm closed? Isn't it said that once the entrance to the secret realm is formed, it will never be closed again?"

Song Yu spoke anxiously, she just wanted to go out and find help.

The girl with the ponytail glanced at Song Yu, her eyes fixed on the red and yellow armband on Song Yu's arm, which represented his identity and nationality. She breathed a sigh of relief, then immediately shook her head and said, "Sorry, I'm not sure what's going on..."

The girl with the ponytail looked at Song Yu nervously and said simply, "After sunset yesterday, I was resting in the cave when I suddenly realized there was something wrong with my communication bracelet. I was unlucky. On the first day of entering the secret realm... three of my four main battle pets were seriously injured... I had originally planned to stay in the cave to rest for a few days and then press the rescue signal after seven days."

"But... I didn't expect the communication bracelet to have problems."

The girl with the ponytail sighed. "My sixth sense has always been pretty accurate. Ever since the communication bracelet broke, I've been feeling uneasy... I always feel like something big is about to happen."

"So... to ensure safety, I chose to leave the secret realm early."

The ponytail girl lowered her voice, her slightly nervous gaze darting back and forth, examining all the other candidates around her. She leaned closer to Song Yu and said in a low voice, "But I didn't expect... there were so many candidates who had the same idea as me. Everyone wanted to leave this secret realm of red soil and tundra early. But for some reason, the entrance and exit to the secret realm has been inexplicably closed."

"I heard... the entrance to this secret realm seemed to be closed around seven or eight this morning. Before it closed, many examiners and high-level beastmasters from other regions entered the secret realm."

"This information was shared by the candidate from Country L. He was said to be only a few hundred meters away from leaving the secret realm. However, the secret realm had already been closed by then..."

The girl with the ponytail raised her hand and pointed at a skinny, crew-haired boy on her right. "He also said that about forty or fifty examiners from the organizing committee had come in earlier. They were originally there to inform the other candidates in the secret realm that the Six Nations Secret Realm Assessment Tournament was cancelled, but they ended up staying inside the secret realm... Because they had to inform the other candidates and were worried about them getting into danger, they left first."

"Let us wait at the entrance of the secret realm until it returns to its original state..." The girl with ponytail chattered, briefly describing all the information she knew.

Song Yu's heart trembled and his face turned ugly.

Wait, doesn’t this mean that Mr. Jin and Mr. Yan are the biggest bosses in the entire five-star red soil tundra secret realm?

Before the entrance and exit of the secret realm are restored, the teachers from other organizers have no way to come in and help?

As for the examiners from the organizing committee who had entered the secret realm earlier, there were only forty or fifty of them watching... but if these people were all seventh- and eighth-level beastmasters...

"Then Bai Yuhan is really going to be in trouble?" Song Yu's heart sank instantly and his face turned pale.

The heart in the chest felt like it was being pressed by a thousand-pound boulder. It was heavy and stuffy, and I couldn't breathe at all.

I can feel the palpitations and thoughts that Song Yu is feeling at this moment, which are transmitted through the contract.

Quanquan's face looked ugly, and her pair of pink little paws tightly grasped Song Yu's arm.

It squeaked, its face full of worry, "Squeak, squeak?" Xiao Yu, are you okay?

"I'm fine..."

Song Yu wiped his cheeks fiercely, looked down at the circle and asked, "Can your space gate pass through the space barrier between the secret realm and Blue Star and take me outside?"

"Squeak, squeak..." Quanquan shook his head. "No, the Secret Realm and Blue Planet appear to be separated by only an entrance, but in reality, the distance between the two is several galaxies apart..."

Well……

The silver-gray mouse frowned, gesturing with its paws and squeaking, trying to explain to Song Yu the relationship between the secret realm and Blue Star. But Quanquan was only a mouse. Even though it was a high-level space-based alien beast, it was as intelligent as a human. It couldn't verbally explain what it had learned to its contractor.

Song Yu hugged the circle, rubbed his eyebrows, and fell into deep thought.

In short, she couldn't ask for help from the examiners stationed outside the secret realm entrance, nor could she find any other way to help Bai Yuhan...

But.

Let her just give up...

Song Yu lowered her eyes. The cold wind howled in the secret realm of the red soil tundra. Reason occupied every corner of her brain, telling her not to struggle anymore.

As a salted fish, I lie down when I can. This is the principle that salted fish usually follow in their daily lives...

Isn't it time for Bai Yuhan to lie down and take a break now?

"……Why."

Song Yu sighed, looked down at the circle in his arms, and said seriously: "Circle, can you do me a favor? I want to go back to the original cave entrance to take a look."

Holding the circle tightly in her arms, Song Yu summoned out several small beasts, including Qiuqiu and Teng Teng, who were currently staying in the beast-controlling space. Even the two eighth-level alien beasts that were staying in the beast-controlling space after being swallowed by Qiuqiu were summoned out by her.

As soon as the five contracted beasts came out of the beast-controlling space, they reduced their size in advance.

They flew, stood or lay down towards the exquisite dolls, staying beside Song Yu.

Song Yu said to the little guys with a guilty look on his face, "I'm sorry... I might need you to do me a favor. I want to go back and find someone... If we encounter some enemies that we can't defeat, don't worry about me, just leave."

After her death, the contract between the beastmaster and the contracted beast will instantly collapse.

Although the circles and balls will be traumatized and their strength will decrease due to the disappearance of this mental power contract.

But with their current strength, there is absolutely no problem for them to survive in this five-star secret realm... The most important thing is that with their strength, they can easily sign contracts with other beastmasters, and those beastmasters will agree.

Song Yu touched the furry little heads of the balls and circles and went straight into the space gate.

Although she didn't know why she had to go back to see how Bai Yuhan was doing, she knew... she wanted to go back and take a look at this moment.

“Clatter—”

The space door opened again.

The girl with ponytail looked at Song Yu's back in confusion as he turned and left, feeling a little at a loss for a moment.

She didn't know why the star figure of the genius training camp who had just been chatting with her suddenly turned around and left.

But...Huh?! It seems like the other party's contracted beast's level has reached a new level!

She was inexplicably envious, and the girl with ponytail hugged her contracted beast tightly with a sigh on her face.

Alas, she only hoped that this damn secret entrance and exit could be restored to its original state as soon as possible...

Looking at the unfamiliar faces around her, the girl with ponytail was very worried about her own safety. After all, all the beastmasters in the six countries were in competition with each other.

Song Yu had no idea that although he was as nervous as going to the battlefield, he actually received envious looks from other candidates.

She was holding Quanquan, Qiuqiu and Tengteng. Youyou and two other eighth-level strange beasts were flapping their little wings and flying beside her on the left and right.

After passing through the space gate and walking through the quiet and dark space corridor, Song Yu's back was already covered with dense beads of sweat.

When Song Yu took a deep breath, passed through the space door, and appeared at the entrance of the cave again.

I saw that the original cave entrance had disappeared, and the towering mountain above the cave had long been crushed into powder by the skills of various ninth-level beasts.

When Song Yu appeared, she was standing in a deep pit that was hundreds of meters deep, even far beyond her estimated size.

The thick layer of permafrost was crushed and disappeared by the powerful skills of the ninth-level monster.

The strong sunlight overhead shines throughout the entire pit, illuminating the surroundings clearly.

Song Yu looked around and saw only scorched earth.

There was only charred soil here, without a trace of green. She felt as if she had come to a strange place.

With the help of Qiuqiu and Tengteng, Song Yu finally left the deep pit. When she climbed out of the pit again and stood on the ground.

What was seen were huge claw marks. The originally beautiful scenery and lush bushes had all disappeared. There were broken walls and ruins everywhere. The tall bushes were crushed by the ninth-level monster, and the lush moss carpet was crushed into the soil.

Everything has already fallen apart.

"Can you tell where the Void Dragon left from?" Song Yu looked down at the circle, wanting it to use its spatial ability to help find Bai Yuhan's whereabouts.

However.

"Uh..." Quanquan sensed it for a moment and shook his head, with a hint of embarrassment on the silver-gray little mouse's face.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak." It squeaked at Song Yu: No, the energy here is too complicated, I can't sense the location of the Void Dragon at all.

If it weren't for the relentless bombardment from the other Ninth-Rank Contracted Beasts, with her current abilities, she would have been able to sense the energy fluctuations caused by the spatial gate when the Void Dragon left. However, the location where the spatial gate had previously opened was attacked repeatedly by multiple Ninth-Rank Exotic Beasts, causing those energy fluctuations to be dispersed by these attacks. Now, it was impossible to capture it.

The little mouse's cheeks were a little red. Previously, it was full of confidence, thinking that as long as it worked hard, it could find the other party, but now...

Quanquan looked at Song Yu awkwardly, expecting to see Xiao Yu's disappointed expression, but unexpectedly...

When the little guy looked up, he saw Song Yu breathing a sigh of relief.

Circle: “……???”

Song Yu: "Since you can't sense the energy fluctuations of the Void Dragon's departure, then logically speaking... Grandpa Jin and the other two can't find Bai Yuhan either?"

As a ninth-level exotic beast, even though Quanquan's bloodline level was originally lower and not as good as that of the six-winged void snake, both sides are now ninth-level exotic beasts. Even if there is a gap between them, it will not be too big.

Song Yu murmured softly, his eyes becoming brighter and brighter, and even his originally anxious mood felt much more relaxed at this moment.

As she breathed a sigh of relief, she looked at Qiuqiu seriously and said, "Let's look around and see if we can find Bai Yuhan."

"Meow...?" Qiuqiu moved his nose, and the white nine-tailed snow cat stretched out its paw and pointed to the right.

Qiuqiu: I smell blood. Do you want to go check it out? Does this smell seem familiar?

The kitten looked up at Song Yu with a serious expression.

It felt that the smell was a little familiar, but it couldn't put its name to it.

Song Yu looked down at Qiuqiu and suddenly became nervous.
