The Ominous Valley was located seventy thousand miles to the east of the Demon City. It was a naturally formed valley with thousands of ferocious beasts living in it. The stronger ones were comparable to the late Body Integration Stage, while the weaker ones were only at the Soul Formation Stage. There was a huge difference in strength, but they all lived in harmony.
Qinchuan didn't come here to find a mount for himself. He wanted to pick a baby beast for Lü Zi as a gift.
After learning of Qinchuan's intentions, Dusk Snake said to Qinchuan, "In terms of attack power, the Skysplitter Condor is the strongest. In terms of comfort, the Snow Monster is the most comfortable. In terms of cuteness, the baby beast is definitely the best.
What kind of ferocious beast would Master like to pick for Mistress? "
Qinchuan thought for a moment, then asked, "Are there any ferocious beasts that are compatible with the illusion element?"
After hearing Qinchuan's request, Dusk Snake thought for a moment before answering, "Of course there are ferocious beasts that are compatible with the illusion element. Dream beasts are very suitable. However, they are relatively rare and difficult to raise."
Qinchuan asked curiously, "What does a Dream Beast look like?"
Dusk Snake looked into the Ominous Valley. After searching for a while, he pointed at a ball of light purple mist and said to Qinchuan, "That's a Dream Beast. Dream beasts aren't aggressive, but they have extremely strong hallucinogenic abilities. Those who come into contact with a Dream Beast will easily fall into a dreamland and be unable to extricate themselves unless their mental strength is very strong."
After hearing Dusk Snake's description of the Dream Beast, Qinchuan looked at the ball of light purple mist and asked, "Is that a baby beast?"
Dusk Snake nodded and said to Qinchuan, "A Dream Beast will turn into a deep purple color when it reaches adulthood. The lighter the color, the younger the Dream Beast. This one looks like it was born not long ago, so it's still a faint purple.
Now that it can leave its mother and move around on its own, it's a very suitable target. "
Qinchuan observed the Dream Beast for a moment, then said to the Mysterious Snake, "That's it. Catch it."
Xuan She waved gently at the Dream Beast when he heard Qinchuan's order, and the Dream Beast naturally landed in his hand. He placed the Dream Beast into a jade bottle and passed it to Qinchuan, "Master, the Dream Beast is already in there. You just need to channel a strand of spiritual energy or demon energy into the bottle every day to keep it alive. However, it's best if you let the Dream Beast's future master do it."
Qinchuan put away the jade bottle and said to Xuan She, "It's over, let's get ready to leave."
Qinchuan didn't plan to stay in the ruins for long. They had killed so many Protoss Messengers, and the Protoss must have learned of the situation. They would definitely send people to Pegasus Star to investigate and exact revenge. He had to leave Pegasus Star before the Protoss arrived, return to Stansos, and sneak into the Holy Cluster with Lü Zi!
Xuan She took out the badge he obtained from the Protoss Messengers and said to Qinchuan, "This old servant has been longing to see the outside world for a long time."
… …
Buzz.
With a flash of light, Qinchuan and Xuan She appeared on a plain on Pegasus Star. Above them was the entrance to Ancient Ruins No. 36. Qinchuan looked up at the entrance and said to Xuan She, "Let's go."
Xuan She looked at the outside world with excitement and said to Qinchuan, "If master doesn't mind, this old servant is willing to be your mount."
With Dusk Snake's strength, traversing the universe was no problem, but if Dusk Snake were to transform into his true form, it would be too conspicuous. Before they even reached Stansos, they would attract the attention of the Celestials. So, although Qin Chuan was tempted, he still rejected Dusk Snake's suggestion.
Qinchuan went straight to the Tian people stationed outside and borrowed a spaceship from the Tian people. Then, he and Xuan She boarded the spaceship and headed straight to Stansos.
Five days after Qinchuan and Xuan She left Pegasus Star, the Protoss investigation team led by Red Archbishop Sam arrived at Pegasus Star!
… …
After flying for almost a month, Qinchuan and Xuan She finally arrived at Stansos. However, they didn't go to District 2, but to District 5 instead. Lü Zi, who had been informed by Qinchuan, was already waiting for Qinchuan at District 5's Factory No. 9.
Qinchuan couldn't help but want to get closer to Lü Zi. When Qinchuan gave the Dream Beast to Lü Zi as a gift, Lü Zi was overjoyed and named the Dream Beast Little Chuan. Qinchuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Now that the Hope was fully repaired and had successfully evolved from a low-grade Sacred Artifact to a mid-grade Sacred Artifact, Bai You's combat power was comparable to a peak Dongxu realm expert.
"Bai You, this is Xuan She. He'll be working with you from now on. You'll be in charge during the operation and he'll listen to your orders."
Qinchuan looked at Bai You and said solemnly, "Remember, unless absolutely necessary, don't enter the Exiled Land. The laws of heaven and earth there are very special. They'll suppress your strength to the peak Nascent Soul realm. I'm afraid you'll be in danger under those circumstances."
Bai You nodded at Qinchuan's words. "I'll remember what you said. But … where did you find this Xuan She?
Will he really listen to my orders? "
Bai Yuu could see that Dusk Snake was a peak Body Integration Stage overlord, an existence on the same level as Heavenly Monarch Oliver of the Celestial Race. She didn't have the confidence to command such a powerhouse.
Xuan She lowered his head at Bai You's words. "Miss Bai, this old servant is Master's servant. Since Master has given the order, this old servant will listen to all of Miss Bai's orders. Please don't worry, Miss Bai."
Upon hearing Mystic Snake's words, Qin Chuan said to Bai You, "You saw it. This is his attitude."
Bai You was completely at ease after hearing Xuan She's promise. She was very concerned about returning to the Exiled Land with Xuan She and protecting it.
"Right, there's something I haven't had the chance to tell you. Do you know about the Forest of Eternity?"
Qinchuan suddenly thought of the Forest of Eternity, the birthplace of the elven race. It should be a very important place to Bai You.
Bai You smiled and said to Qinchuan, "Of course I know about the Forest of Eternity. I've been in the Forest of Eternity before you sent me the message. It's the birthplace of the elven race. It's also the place the elven race sought to build the Hope. The Hope evolved into a mid-grade holy artifact there."
Qinchuan nodded and said to Bai You, "Trust me. If there's a chance in the future, I'll trade the Forest of Eternity with the Tian people and return it to the elven race."
"Thank you, Qinchuan," Bai You looked at Qinchuan with touched eyes and said softly, "You'll be the elven race's friend forever."
