Chapter 689: Chapter 684: Arrival of Celestial Brilliance
Time, a deeply mystical power in any world, and as the tangible product of time, the river of time held immense allure.
To alter the past, to foresee the future.
These were experiences almost everyone wished to have.
If the Time Secret Realm could truly reproduce the river of time, perhaps he too could create some changes?
A glimmer of anticipation flashed in Bai Qi’s eyes, and he started to peacefully perceive his surroundings.
“After the Secret Realm expanded, one day in the outside world equals two days here? Isn’t this rate of acceleration a bit too exaggerated?”
Bai Qi opened his eyes, clearly surprised.
Originally, he only gained an additional six hours, but now he had gained an entire twenty-four hours. Does this mean that as long as he stayed here, he would strictly have an extra day compared to others?
Yeah, he would also die quickly if things went south.
Bai Qi quietly withdrew from the Time Secret Realm, reluctant to linger any longer. The Cowskin Snake, however, remained inside, quietly absorbing the abundant Power of Time.
Back by the pond, Alpha was still searching for something. However, the pond was spotless, devoid of any Array or such elements.
“It seems that those were all the Death Viruses.”
Bai Qi looked at Alpha and said, “Alpha, did you keep some of the Death Viruses?”
Earlier, he had asked Alpha to reserve some of the Dead Beasts. However, comparatively speaking, the original liquid here undoubtedly had more research value.
Crackle, crackle.
(Don’t worry boss, those Death Viruses are all inside the Dragon of Silent Annihilation.)
“Very good, let’s immediately go back and start researching.”
Even though the tail of the Death Round Table slipped through his fingers, his initial objective was to find suitable research material. Now, he had already exceeded his goal and certainly couldn’t continue wasting time.
At that moment, Bai Qi suddenly detected something and forcefully summoned the Lord Spear. He looked above his head and saw a black shadow falling from the sky, charging towards him.
Seeing this, Alpha quickly materialized in front of Bai Qi and managed to block the claw attacking him with a sword. Simultaneously, the Dragon of Silent Annihilation reappeared behind and directly attacked the black shadow.
“We’ve only been apart for a short while, and you’ve already become so strong, Alpha?”
A familiar voice came from the black shadow’s mouth, to which Bai Qi responded with an exasperated expression, “Senior Jiuyou, you know, you can really scare people to death.”
“Apologies, I am not human.”
The Jiuyou Darkbird raised its head, glanced arrogantly at Bai Qi and said, “And what is this equipment of yours? Your seventh pet?”
Bai Qi slightly nodded, and upon seeing Bai Heguang stepping down from the back of the Jiuyou Darkbird, he promptly bowed and said, “Teacher, why are you here?”
Bai Heguang looked at Bai Qi and said, “The West Sea merger is happening, as a councilor, of course, I need to be here.”
“But I was actually planning to come anyway. After hearing about your promotion to Legend, I hurried to Gusu City. Only after arriving did President Qin tell me that you went to the sea area.”
“Erm, how is President Qin…doing?”
Bai Qi’s eye twitched as he timidly asked.
“He’s doing fine.”
Bai Heguang glanced at Bai Qi and said, “But after we get back this time, there are a few things you should handle yourself. President Qin should also take a break.”
“Okay.”
Bai Qi obediently nodded his head. Since the teacher had spoken, he felt he needed to work, or he would really look bad.
“By the way, I received a message from Xiao Mu saying you found the source of the Dead Beasts. Judging by the look of this place, it seems to have something to do with the Death Round Table?”
Bai Heguang looked around and said.
“Correct, this place appears to be the base of the Death Round Table, and also the source of the Death Virus.”
Bai Qi nodded slightly, informing Bai Heguang of the findings he had made earlier.
“The Bo Ge family… Revenge Angels… The power of the Death Round Table really is stronger than we thought.”
Bai Heguang pondered for a moment and said, “Recently, Dead Beast-like creatures have been appearing in many places. There has also been unrest in most tribes. Maybe the Death Round Table is planning a major operation.”
“Mm-hmm, I think so too.”
Bai Qi added the intelligence he acquired from the Icefoot Sea Lice King, “I feel the Death Round Table’s malefic plan is vast, not just limited to taking control of the Federation or spreading their faith.”
“Right, the Death Round Table is different from any other cult in the past. Their plans are clear and their goals are specific. Their threat is quickly surpassing the tribes.”
Bai Heguang frowned slightly, but seemed reluctant to say more in the current situation. After taking a good look at Bai Qi, he asked, “Is this your seventh pet?”
“Yes, it’s the seventh pet I managed to control after coming to the sea area, the Absurd Clown, Yita.”
Bai Qi deactivated the mask, reverting the Absurd Clown back to its Elf form. Bai Heguang looked somewhat surprised and asked, “I have never seen this breed before… And where did you get this Power of Stars?”
“Well, you could call it an accident.”
Bai Qi opened his mouth, wanting to tell Bai Heguang about the Dark Emperor. But after glancing at their surroundings, he said, “Teacher, why not I tell you when I get back. There have been too many things recently, and I can’t explain them all at once.”
“Okay.”
Bai Heguang didn’t comment, returning to the back of the Jiuyou Darkbird and saying, “Let’s go. We’ll return to the Crystal Palace first. The rest can be handled by others.”
“Mm-hmm.”
Bai Qi slightly nodded, skillfully climbing onto the back of the Jiuyou Darkbird. However, when Alpha was about to climb up, the Jiuyou Darkbird seemed somewhat resistant.
“Both of you are Legends now, fly back yourselves!”
Jiuyou glanced at Alpha and said, “After we get back, accompany this young lady to spar!”
Crackling.
(No problem.)
Alpha nodded without returning to Beast Control Space and went straight to the exit, while the Jiuyou Darkbird followed closely behind.
A skeleton and a bird started competing for speed which was so fast that even the waiting Icefoot Sea Lice King and Blast Tiger Whale couldn’t see clearly.
“What just flew past us?”
“It seemed so, but I didn’t see it.”
“From the aura, they should be the other two councilmen of our Deep Sea Alliance, Legendary Celestial Brilliance and Jiuyou Darkbird.”
Ming Dian explained while the Icefoot Sea Lice King and Blast Tiger Whale just stood confused, having no idea who they were.
Seeing this, Ming Dian tilted his head to think before adding a comment.
“Oh, yes, he is also the teacher of the charismatic leader.”
“Damn, must be another monster.”
“I think we should finish Bai Qi’s task first, otherwise I’m afraid I won’t be able to go to the Crystal Palace.”
“Um, let’s set off now!”
…
Crystal Palace.
Two shadows appeared at the front and back door of the Crystal Palace, virtually at the same time.
“Damn, he’s just a Legend, how can he run so fast!”
The Jiuyou Darkbird, who arrived first, muttered a sentence, looking at Alpha who silently stood behind him and he coughed twice, saying, “You did well, but you are still a little short compared to this young lady. Remember to train well.”
Alpha nodded without a word, while Bai Heguang managed to detect faint hints, saying, “Alright, Jiuyou, you should get trained too.”
“I know, I know, come on Alpha, accompany this young lady to battle.”
The Jiuyou Darkbird nodded and took Alpha along to fly out.
“From the aura, your pet has also evolved new power from the Power of Death, hasn’t it?”
Seeing the two beasts departing, Bai Heguang said.
“Yes, Alpha fused the Four Attributes Sword, giving birth to the Rule Skills, the Sword of Silent Annihilation.”
Hearing this, a rare smile appeared on Bai Heguang’s face, he said, “Has it already comprehended the Rule Skills? It seems Jiuyou will suffer this time.”
“Mentor, what’s the situation with the Rule Skills? They seem to be very rare?”
Upon seeing this, Bai Qi immediately asked the question that was in his mind.
“Indeed, they are very rare. Generally speaking, the skills comprehended by Legendary creatures are Immortal-level Skills, only reaching the Demi-God level would there be a chance to come into contact with Rule Skills.”
Bai Heguang said, “Unlike Immortal-level Skills, Rule Skills have essentially risen to a concept. They may have a specific energy form or may not, but one thing is certain, Rule Skills are without exception, all powerful.”
Seeing this, he pretty much broke the rules with his power.
Bai Qi kept nodding his head. The Sword of Silent Annihilation not only has the effect of the Power of Death, but also inherits the power of the other swords and even a creature with strong vitality like the Icefoot Sea Lice King couldn’t resist, hinting at its power.
“Since your pet has already comprehended the Rule Skills, it is inevitable that it will reach the Demi-God Level, congratulations.”
Speaking of this, a look of apology appeared on Bai Heguang’s face, he said, “I had originally prepared a beast for you as a promotion present, but I didn’t expect you to have found one already. I’ll find another one for you when I get back.”
“It’s too kind of you, Mentor. Besides, haven’t you already prepared resources from the Secret Realm Tower for me? That’s more than enough.”
Bai Qi’s eyes warmed as he said, “Mentor, let’s go inside and talk about recent events first, it might help in finding the Death Round Table.”
“Hmm.”
Bai Heguang nodded and said, “Xiao Mu is also waiting for us. Let’s discuss it together.”
…
Meeting Room.
Upon hearing about Bai Qi’s recent experiences, Bai Heguang and Xiao Mu fell silent.
Half of the reason was certainly the Death Round Table, whether it was Sima Jing who had obviously gained something or the relationship between the Dark Emperor and the Death Round Table, as well as the base in Lethe Trench, they all made them more wary of the Death Round Table.
The other half was shocked by what Bai Qi had experienced.
The plans of the Death Round Table were so secretive, yet coincidentally encountered by Bai Qi every time. They had every reason to suspect that Bai Qi had set up spies in the Death Round Table.
“We’ve investigated the source of the Death Round Table for a long time, but didn’t expect it would be connected to the Dark Emperor.”
Bai Heguang stroked his chin and said, “In this case, future investigations will have traces to follow, and we might be able to ferret out some things.”
“From the information I have, the Death Round Table sent people to find the Dark Emperor, but I don’t know why they didn’t go back.”
Bai Qi paused and said, “I suspect that there may be differences within the Death Round Table as well.”
“If that’s the case, then it’s the best. After all, such a mysterious opponent, if they are too united internally, we will have a hard time.”
Xiao Mu smiled and said, “But now, let’s first discuss how to deal with the current problems.”
What do you think?
