"Let me think about it."

Faced with such a huge army of crows, Lu Ran still had a headache.

For a moment, I didn’t know how to cultivate it.

It would be fine if they were all dark or spiritual, as their attributes would be consistent with those of the Dark Crows, making it easier to control and train them.

With the same attributes, the power of legion skills can be stronger.

But there is no way, dark and spiritual attributes are rare attributes.

If 90% of them are wind type, there are only two ways to make the Dark Crows perfectly controlled.

Awaken the wind attribute for the dark crows, or awaken the spirit attribute and dark attribute for the ordinary crows.

Needless to say, Lu Ran would definitely choose the latter.

"Those 12 elite crows that have awakened the dark and spiritual elements must be trained with emphasis."

"When the time comes, if they are spiritual innately, buy them dark awakening resources, and if they are dark innately, buy them spiritual awakening resources."

“The talents and qualifications of these 12 are close to yours. You can make good arrangements for them.” Lu Ran looked at the Dark Crow and said.

"Understood!!!" Dark Crow said there was no problem.

These twelve will be its trusted followers in the future!

"As for the rest, no matter what their innate attributes are, let's focus on the spiritual system." Lu Ran said: "First select those with good qualifications."

"I will have the Beast Taming Team and the Dragon Team of Lujia Village go to the secret realm to obtain the 'Spiritual Awakening Resources' more often every day."

"When the time comes, all the resources that are released will be used to awaken their spiritual system."

As for why I didn’t choose to awaken the dark element first, it must be because it is difficult to get a huge amount of dark element awakening resources.

Unlike spiritual awakening resources, which can be dropped through the first-level abyss secret realm, they can be completely handed over to Lujia Village and the Jiaolong Team to work.

It not only trained them, but also brought them a lot of resources.

"My lord, do I need to leave two clones behind this time?!" asked Dark Crow.

"Yes." Lu Ran said, "Both undead clones stay here, and you can have them communicate with Manager Ying about how to train these crows."

"The two original bodies will follow me into the secret realm."

…………

moment.

Lu Ran came to the back mountain of Red Leaf Park.

He did not choose Cuishan as the location to open up the secret realm, but chose this place which was closer to his home.

The most important thing is that this is where he and the Dark Crow met, which has a different meaning.

Arriving at the dense forest, Lu Ran took out the secret realm card and activated it directly.

[Should we open up a secret space here? 】

yes.

Lu Ran confirmed that the secret realm card was filled with a faint light, and then the light burned like a flame, burning the secret realm card ashes.

Then, the burning dust was shaped into a brand new black card.

[Name]: Exclusive Secret Realm Card

[Introduction]: An exclusive secret realm card of a real secret realm. It can transform a designated item into a secret realm key. With the secret realm key, the key holder has the power to "close the secret realm" and "open the secret realm".

When the key card was formed, a dimensional door appeared in front of Lu Ran's eyes. It was round in shape, and its surface was like a lake, flashing with black, purple, blue, pink, and white lights, connecting to another dimension.

“Gah!!”

Lu Ran looked at Dark Crow, who immediately plucked out one of his feathers.

After getting the feather, Lu Ran transformed the Dark Crow's feather into a secret realm key again, and then returned the feather to the Dark Crow.

From now on, the control of this secret realm will be handed over to Dark Crow for safekeeping.

“Do a good job!”

Afterwards, Lu Ran stepped into the secret realm. The area inside was about the same size as a small town. It was not big, but it was enough.

The secret realm that had just been opened up was still barren, but the concentration of spiritual energy inside was indeed rich. As long as spiritual plants with specific properties were planted properly, the environment inside would soon be completely renewed.

For example, if you plant spiritual plants with full fire attributes, then this secret realm will soon turn into a natural secret realm with abundant fire energy, which is extremely suitable for the growth of fire pets.

However, since it was to be a habitat for crows, Lu Ran would definitely have to transform the environment towards the wind, spirit, and dark elements...

Well, if you think about it carefully, the style of painting is not right. Now looking at the desolate secret land, Lu Ran estimates that after a month, he will most likely see an extremely terrifying place.

In order to transform the secret realm, Lu Ran planned to contact the professor who gave him the sword grass and ask him for help.

It took Lu Ran about a day to arrange everything, and he also worked hard to make a lot of dragon-themed dishes and soul dishes.

Now I can go to break through the secret realm without any worries.

…………

"Manager Ying, I'm leaving now. I'll leave it to you from now on."

Before leaving, Lu Ran greeted Manager Ying again. At this time, the weather elf was floating on its left, and the winter sword spirit was floating on its right. An elemental creature that had just turned one month old and an undead creature that had just been born a few days ago were communicating across Manager Ying's head, one on the left and the other on the right, across species. One was "Li!" and the other was "Woof!", and neither of them could understand what the other was saying.

Seeing the desperate expression on Manager Ying's face, Lu Ran coughed dryly and was about to run away, but Manager Ying cursed, "Wait!"

"ah?"

Lu Ran stopped transmitting, looked at it, and said, "What are you doing?"

"This is for you." It angrily threw out a box and said, "Ethereal Flower, a space awakening resource."

“Huh?”

Lu Ran was surprised: "You got it so quickly."

"Hmph, although this is also precious, it is much easier to find than the unique trait or skill that suits you."

"This is much more expensive than the Queen Ant's Egg, right?" Lu Ran said with a smile, "Then I'll give you the difference?"

"No need." Manager Ying turned around and said, "Gu Qingyi and I worked together to get this. I didn't suffer any loss. You just need to wait until you come out of the secret realm and then go and breed a pet for Gu Qingyi."

"With your dragon cuisine and dragon soul cultivation method, maybe she can make it into the top ten."

"No big deal." Lu Ran weighed the box, then put it into his card bag and said, "Thank Dr. Gu for me too. Okay, I'm leaving now."

"Rainbow Dash, Corpse Dog, you two better listen to Manager Ying. I'll be back in a month—"

After Lu Ran finished speaking, he disappeared from the spot without paying attention to the eager looks from the weather elves and the winter sword spirit.

Infinite City No. 3, the exclusive room for Passerby A.

This was Lu Ran’s third time entering the secret realm of breakthrough, and he had been looking forward to it for a long time.

Walk closer to the secret realm pillar, activate the interface, and click on the secret realm.

[Name: Breakthrough in the Secret Realm]

[Secret Realm Level: Level 2]

[Difficulty: Unknown]

[Challenge Coin: 0]

[Introduction: You will enter an unknown world and experience a breakthrough trial. ]

"Come on." Lu Ran took a deep breath.

“I just don’t know how long the match is expected to take.”

"I feel like there shouldn't be many people queuing for the Level 2 Secret Realm during this time period, right?"

Among the fourth generation, most people are still hovering around the trainee and first-level levels.

There are very few second-level ones.

In the third and second generations, it is possible that there are life-type beastmasters who are still at the second level.

However, there aren't many of them, so it's hard to queue up together.

“Please don’t wait for several days…” Lu Ran prayed.

[Do you want to enter the secret realm of breakthrough? ]

"yes."

[We are matching you with a suitable breakthrough secret realm...]

[Secret Realm Matching...]

[Please wait…]

[Estimated waiting time: 1s...]

Lu Ran: “???”

"Another 1 second?"

"Something's wrong."

"Are there really so many Level 2 Beast Tamers entering the Breakthrough Secret Realm during this period of time?" Lu Ran was at a loss.

But soon, his expression changed.

【Match successful.】

[Secret Realm Type: Multiplayer, Cross-Boundary (You are matched with Infinite City Beast Tamers from other worlds). ]

[Teleport countdown 10…9…8…]

"Wait, are you kidding me, crossover?"

During the ten-second countdown to the transmission, Lu Ran stared at the words "type of secret realm: cross-border" and was slightly stunned.

Depend on.

Shit! In a short period of time, Lu Ran's brain experienced the chaos of a tornado destroying a parking lot, and then he quickly analyzed it.

"What the hell is going on!"

Seeing the word "cross-border", Lu Ran immediately remembered the World War that had just been updated in Blue Star Infinite City.

Originally, many beastmasters on Blue Star were speculating that what they might be fighting against was just a projection of a powerful being from a certain era on the Star-Moon Continent.

But now it seems that things are not that simple at all.

Perhaps it is just as Manager Ying and I guessed, there are other different worlds around Blue Star, and this different world has also selected a group of people from Infinite City to become Infinite City Beast Tamers.

It is very likely that this strange world is the modern Star-Moon Continent.

What Blue Star has to fight against is real life, not projection!

"Am I the only one who has been matched with the Infinite City Beastmaster from another world, or can all the Beastmasters on Blue Star be matched with him... Is this a preparation for the upcoming World War? Through cross-server matching, both sides can get to know each other in advance?"

"It seems that Infinite City is indeed a large server covering at least two worlds."

“I don’t know how strong the second-level Beast Tamers from the other world are. I hope I won’t be beaten…” Lu Ran couldn’t judge. If he wanted to know whether other people could match up with Beast Tamers from other worlds, he could only wait until a month later to find out.

10 seconds passed and Lu Ran was quickly teleported away.

Buzz! In the darkness, a further introduction to the secret realm slowly emerged. Lu Ran listened carefully, and phantom text also appeared in front of him.

[Transmitting…]

[Target location: Divine Tree Continent, Tree Realm City]

[Era Introduction: In ancient times, the world was wild and barbaric, and humans and various ferocious beasts lived on this land.

Relying on the "power of taming beasts", humans quickly mastered the strength to fight against ferocious beasts.

In order to expand their own tribes, humans and ferocious beasts began an endless fight for the resources of the continent. Nature suffered serious damage and various rare plant resources became extinct due to over-collection.

Until one day, the rules of the world changed, and all the flowers, grass, trees, and any plants on this continent suddenly became intelligent and showed evolutionary potential that was even more terrifying than that of humans and ferocious beasts.

Resource plants have sharply decreased, while the number of ferocious plants has increased dramatically. As plants continue to evolve, all kinds of ferocious beasts, including humans, have quickly become food for the ferocious plants.

In order to survive, some human beast masters developed a method of contracting ferocious plants, changed their job to become "plant masters", and in turn used the ferocious beasts as food to provide nutrients.

At this point, beast tamers fell into obscurity and plant tamers became the mainstream on the mainland.

Tree World City.

One of the super main cities in the human activity area, it is home to various beast control families and plant control families. Although the beast control masters have declined, there are still some beast control forces that have been preserved from ancient times and have not given up their heritage. 】

In the darkness, Lu Ran was slightly stunned.

Shenshu Continent, isn't this the world of plants and pets? This time... I came to the plant world???

[Breakthrough Mission: Get a score of top 32 or above in the Plant Beast Competition held regularly in Tree Realm City!]

[Hint ①: The Plant and Beast Competition is a large-scale competition jointly organized by various forces in the Tree Realm City. The contestants are basically the younger generation of the surrounding forces. It is the main stage for the two extraordinary schools of plant control and beast control to compete with each other. ]

[Hint ②: This secret realm is a historical projection...]
