Albizia Julibrissin…

Lu Ran was angry.

He couldn't understand how his last experience of breaking through the secret realm had anything to do with the Albizia Julibrissin flower!

Why is the reward such a thing?

"You say, is this still an accident?"

Manager Ying looked at Lu Ran with a gloomy gaze.

Bloodstone, Mutation Tears, Albizia Julibrissin... Can you guess what the next reward will be?

"I am innocent." Lu Ran said, "I was expecting a powerful battle pet... or a super assistant..."

"Infinite City is not a human being."

"No……"

"In theory, this Albizia Julibrissin should be much rarer than the ones you mentioned."

Manager Ying said, "The breeding of high-level pets has always been a problem. With the Albizia Julibrissin, it should be able to alleviate a lot of the burden."

"If we cultivate it well, there is hope that it will become a national treasure."

"For example, your Dark Raven Legion, the crows with high potential and high talent are destined to be a minority."

"But with this albizzia flower, you don't have to run around the world looking for elite crows to breed. You can just let the existing elite crows pair up and give birth to cubs... your bloodline will only get stronger."

Lu Ran's mouth twitched, and he said, "It seems to be the same."

"So, it's not a loss, huh?"

"It's suitable for careful cultivation, but it's not suitable for you to cultivate it yourself." Manager Ying shrugged.

“Okay.” Lu Ran curled his lips. So if he wanted to find a pet that could integrate the characteristics of a lucky clover, he would have to keep looking.

After chatting with Manager He Ying, Lu Ran began to write back to Fang Lan: [Just asking if you are good or not. ]

Fang Lan: [? ]

"What the hell are you doing this time?" Manager Ying said with a headache.

Lu Ran snorted and laughed, saying, "This is called ending the topic."

…

In one day, Lu Ran defeated everyone in the league competition and passed through a legendary secret realm. The world was destined to be in turmoil today.

Later, President Xiong and Dean Qin also performed well in the challenges.

Maybe it was because of the continuous targeting of Xia Kingdom, Lu Ran encountered all the powerful gatekeepers.

The gatekeepers that President Youxiong and Dean Qin met were all of average level.

Therefore, President Youxiong also fought his way to the fourth level, but unfortunately lost at the fifth level.

Dean Qin is more powerful, worthy of being the strongest second generation in Xia Country. The first generation he matched with was the same as Happy, who had not mastered the field. So when facing Dean Qin who had mastered the field, he was defeated in the end.

In the end, two people from Xia Country dominated the challenge.

This made all the top leaders of Xia country laugh so hard that they couldn't stop. However, after Dean Qin and Chairman You Xiong knew that Lu Ran went back not to recuperate but to brush a legendary secret realm, the two contestants were not very happy. They just twitched at the corners of their mouths.

"President, according to the agreement, the Kunpeng Feather is considered a gift to me, right?"

Before returning to China, Lu Ran was smiling and chatting with the old president in a video.

"Haha." The old man also enjoyed the fun and said, "It's yours."

"The legendary secret realm has also been opened. When do you plan to enter the third level breakthrough secret realm?"

Lu Ran thought for a moment and said, "Wait a couple of days. The pets are tired after preparing for the challenge for so long. I'll let them rest for two days and then go for the breakthrough."

"Okay." The old president said, "It is important to combine work and rest."

"If you have nothing else to do, return to Xia Country as soon as possible. You encountered so many difficult gatekeepers this time. It should be Pari from the Condor Federation who is targeting you."

"But this time, because of the loss of one of the strongest second-generation members of his Condor, his days will not be easy."

"In order to prevent him from taking desperate actions, it is safer to stay in China."

"Don't be afraid." Lu Ran said with a smile: "If he dares to come, I will make him go without return."

The old president smiled and said, "Of course I know you are not afraid, but less trouble is worse than more trouble. Let me handle this Pari next, and don't worry about it."

“Although he is not the strongest among the Condor Heroes, he is one of the first-generation first-line fighters after all, and he holds a high position. He must have epic items on him and should not be underestimated.”

Epic props! When Lu Ran heard this, he even wanted Pari to come over.

As if he saw through Lu Ran’s thoughts, the old president shook his head: “Hey, young man.”

"Haha, I'm going back home now."

Following the old president's advice, Lu Ran did not stay in Lianmeng City for long.

After returning to China, Lu Ran first saw the so-called Albizia Julibrissin, then shook his head and began to prepare for the third-level breakthrough in the secret realm.

As for the Albizia Julibrissin, let's leave it to Professor Ye, a botanist, to take care of its growth...

This breakthrough in the secret realm is actually very important to Lu Ran.

It’s not that there is a powerful new pet contract immediately after reaching level 4, but that Lu Ran has a heritage crystal of time acceleration skill in his pocket.

Time-based beast taming skills!

If he learns this, Lu Ran can further narrow the gap between himself and the first generation in the first echelon.

In the blink of an eye, three days later.

Within three days, Lu Ran dealt with some miscellaneous matters, such as handing over useless resources to Manager Ying for trading, and cooking a bunch of dragon dishes and soul dishes to leave behind.

As for the pets, Lu Ran simply let them relax.

After that, Lu Ran finished his work and his pet finished its vacation. Lu Ran prepared everything and then informed his acquaintances one by one that he was about to enter the secret realm of breakthrough.

Looking at Lu Ran's message, Gu Qingyi, Manager Ying, Fang Lan and others had different moods, and then continued to busy themselves with their own things.

Of course, there were also cats mumbling: "The first time was the Dragon's Realm, the second time was the Son of the Dead, and the third time was the Tree King's Inheritance..."

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

This is Lu Ran’s fourth time entering the secret realm of breakthrough, and he is already familiar with it.

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 3]

[Difficulty: Unknown]

[Challenge Coin: 0]

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

"Let's have a mechanical age or a plant age, please." Lu Ran took a deep breath and prayed.

There are only four eras to break through the secret realm: elements, animals, plants, and machinery.

Among them, although the Elemental Age is the oldest, Lu Ran has no demand for it for the time being.

The same was true of the Star-Moon Continent during the Animal Age.

But the Mechanical Age is different. So far, no one has completed the Mechanical Age.

Lu Ran felt that he could gain a lot of benefits if he could get in.

As for the Divine Tree Continent, although Lu Ran has been there once, it doesn’t matter if he goes there again. It gives him a good opportunity to find plants that suit the characteristics of the lucky clover.

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

[Secret Realm Matching...]

[Please wait…]

[Estimated waiting time: 600s...]

“It took quite a long time this time.”

Seeing that the matching time was a full 10 minutes, Lu Ran simply sat there meditating and waiting.

After 10 minutes…actually less than 10 minutes, the matching was completed.

【Match successful.】

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

[Teleport countdown 10…9…8…]

“Another cross-border incident?” After Infinite City responded, Lu Ran closed his eyes slightly and let Infinite City teleport without paying any attention.

Let’s cross borders.

Buzz! 10 seconds passed, and in the darkness, the introduction to the secret realm slowly emerged. Lu Ran listened carefully, and phantom text also appeared in front of him.

[Target location: Xingyue Continent (Yudi City)]

Lu Ran:? Damn it, how come after all these twists and turns, I’m back to the Star-Moon Era.

[Era introduction: In the 996th year of the Beast Taming Calendar, the Beast Taming Empire was besieged by the four great beast empires. The national teacher "Feng Qianli" developed a special contract law. As long as the beast is defeated and made unconscious, and the contract is forced, its memory can be erased, making it a pet that only obeys orders. No matter how high the race and level of the pet is, it is difficult to resist.

The risk of directly contracting a high-level pet is greatly reduced.

In order to fight against the Ferocious Beast Empire, this contract law was quickly popularized across the country.

Directly defeating powerful beasts and then brainwashing and capturing them into a contract instantly became the mainstream way of taming beasts at that time. There were very few beast tamers who raised pet beasts from young animals.

After a period of time, the Beast Taming Empire increased greatly in strength and was able to counterattack the four ferocious beast empires.

In this era, capturing top-quality pets has become a mainstream trend. Every beastmaster is proud of capturing a powerful pet and begins to go deep into various dangerous places to search for top-quality pets.

Potential detection, talent detection, and combat capture have become the most important basic skills for beastmasters of this era. 】

[Breakthrough Mission: Capture a pet with talent and potential that surpasses others in this secret realm! ]

[Tip ①: The trial participant obtains a temporary contract space, which can be used to capture pets.]

[Hint ②: If the pet you capture is in the top two in terms of talent potential, you will be promoted to a Level 4 Beast Tamer.]

[Tip ③: The score of the breakthrough mission is positively correlated with the talent potential of the captured pet. ]

[Tip ④: If the clearance score reaches S or above, the captured pet will be converted into an extra reward in the form of eggs.]

[Hint ⑤: This secret realm is a historical projection...]

【hint……】

The prompt text kept refreshing, causing Lu Ran to fall into deep thought.

A breakthrough mission centered around fighting and capturing pets?

Capturing pets through battle is indeed one of the mainstream ways for beastmasters in the Star-Moon Continent to contract pets.

Not every beastmaster likes to breed a pet from scratch. Directly capturing a pet of a higher race and higher level is also an option, which can save the beastmaster a lot of breeding resources.

In fact, the current Blue Star also has a trend of transforming in this direction. For example, Xia Kingdom and the Murloc Empire have formed an alliance, and many high-level beastmasters have directly used black cards to contract high-level sea beasts of the Murloc Empire.

As for Lu Ran, he had never done that before. Whether it was Mr. Ha, King Death, Crow, or Rainbow Dash, he trained them all from scratch. The only chance to contract a completed pet like the Mermaid Princess was given to Dr. Gu by Lu Ran.

"The breakthrough mission is to see who can capture the most powerful pet..." Lu Ran pondered. Moreover, the captured pet will be transformed into an extra reward in the form of eggs...which means that there is a chance to take it out, although it is a reincarnated body.

Lu Ran quickly brainstormed.

"Infinite City is compensating me. Damn it! This mission would have been much better if it was set in the Plant Age or the Mechanical Age."

"But here, as the descendant of the second-generation emperor Yan Sizhen who was stranded among the people, it is not too much for me to come into contact with the imperial guardian beasts of those high-level overlord races after showing my potential."

"Although I can't contract them, I have a blood drop stone. It's not too much to ask them to give birth to a cub for me to raise."

"How can this be captured by combat?"

"No, as the messenger of the divine deer, can a high-level overlord cub get rid of me..." Lu Ran touched his chin. What I mean is, is there a chance to find a quasi-legendary divine beast cub, knock it out and capture it? (End of this chapter)
