Chapter 172: Searching around

Among the four Tidal Treasure Snails, one was the real Tidal Treasure Snail, one was its replica, and the other two were the Treasure Snail Images.

However, all of the four shared the same abilities.

They were all able to seek treasures.

In addition to seeking treasures, they were also able to present a real-time small map.

This Secret Realm was not a safe place without any risks.

Besides the giant Silver Star Fruit Tree.

There were also many local monsters living in the Secret Realm.

If you did not want to run into any danger or be obstructed by those monsters in such circumstances.

The Tidal Treasure Snail’s real-time small map was doubtlessly the most useful ability.

“Time to start the treasure-seeking.”

After calling out the Tidal Treasure Snails, Ye Xuan shifted his consciousness to send them in four different directions.

When the Tidal Treasure Snail was on the peak Dark Iron level, its small map could display every detail within a range of one thousand five hundred feet.

As to then.

As he achieved the peak Bronze level.

Its small map was able to display every detail within a range of over one mile.

So, what if the four Tidal Treasure Snails were deployed in four different directions? How far would they be able to reach?

Is there anyone good at maths?

I am waiting for your answer online.

It is urgent!

Swish! Swish! Swish…

As Ye Xuan gave his order, the four Tidal Treasure Snails flew into the distance, swirling.

After he had achieved the peak Bronze level, that snail’s strength also got improved.

In terms of speed, they reached far away only in a flash.

Then soon, carrying the Beast Rings Ye Xuan had given them and the jade boxes made of special materials in the Beast Rings.

All of the four Tidal Treasure Snails traveled more than one mile from where Ye Xuan was.

The jade boxes they were carrying were containers specially designed for Silver Star Fruits.

Simultaneously, as the four Tidal Treasure Snails arrived at their destinations, four real-time small maps emerged in Ye Xuan’s mind.

He had cultivated the Supreme Sensing technique.

This method allowed him to establish a connection with his beasts despite the distance.

He could even attach a dash of his consciousness to the body double of his beasts or what they had called out so that he could sense every movement of theirs no matter how far apart they were.

Together with the four real-time small maps, countless red dots emerged in Ye Xuan’s mind.

He magnified those red dots and found each of them represented a monster in the Secret Realm.

Or a student who had entered the Secret Realm with him, or a Beast Tamer from the Dragon Horn Planet.

Ye Xuan sized them up with his consciousness.

His consciousness lingered on Fang Luotian for half a second.

Then it lingered on Huo Tong for another half a second.

Then it shifted to Tang Mengxia and lingered on some part of her body for twice the time. Then finally, he took his consciousness back.

“Lil Wan!”

He called out Lil Wan, who upgraded to the Silver level not long ago.

He sent her in a direction.

Only a short time had passed, but he had already found one Silver Star Fruit with the aid of the Tidal Treasure Snail.

However, that Silver Star Fruit was located in an extraordinary place. It was in the belly of a Wind-Winged Double-Headed Wolf on the peak Bronze level.

Therefore, to get that Silver Star Fruit, he had to kill the Wind-Winged Double-Headed Wolf first.

Silver Star Fruits were attractive to these monsters, too.

Even if it was a monster on the Bronze level that swallowed a Silver Star Fruit.

Even if their attributes did not really match, it was quite likely that the monster’s strength would improve a little bit in ten or twenty years.

If it were lucky enough to experience a mutation, it would even get a big gain.

Certainly, it had to be a monster who had a stomach with special attributes, one that could stop Silver Star Fruits from dissolving.

At the same time, while the Silver Star Fruit they had swallowed was in their stomach, their bodies would give off a white light.

So, it was quite easy to identify them.

However, that would also attract attacks from monsters in need of Silver Star Fruits.

Therefore, in Ye Xuan’s opinion, that Wind-Winged Double-Headed Wolf might be dumb because it really should not have swallowed the Silver Star Fruit.

Whoosh!

Lil Wan was flying very fast. She disappeared in front of Ye Xuan only in a flash.

She knew Ye Xuan was determined to take advantage of this trip to the Secret Realm to collect a large number of resources so that he could exchange them for the evolutionary resources she needed for her rising in stars, so she was quite motivated.

Besides.

She had just achieved the Silver level, so she was eager to see how strong exactly she was.

“Lovely.”

Seeing Lil Wan leaving, Ye Xuan felt a little touched.

In fact, the Tidal Treasure Snail could deal with the Wind-Winged Double-Headed Wolf on the peak Bronze level by itself.

But that would take more time.

Therefore, he figured it would be better to send Lil Wan to do that.

“Let’s go there.”

When Lil Wan had left, Ye Xuan shifted his consciousness to call out the Heavenly Punishment Thundercloud Wings. He made them turn into a pair of electric wings and equipped himself with them, one at a side of his body.

Then he flew away, flapping the wings.

He found another Silver Star Fruit quickly, thanks to another Tidal Treasure Snail.

That Tidal Treasure Snail did not put the Silver Star Fruit into the box after finding it.

Instead, it flew to another place where it had sensed a rich air of treasures.

As a result, Ye Xuan had to come here himself to pick this Silver Star Fruit up.

Whoosh!

It only took the Heavenly Punishment Thundercloud Wings dozens of seconds to take Ye Xuan to a giant tree.

He looked over and spotted the fist-sized Silver Star Fruit shining with silver light right away.

It was on a giant leaf of the tree.

Whoosh!

After seeing that Silver Star Fruit, Ye Xuan shifted his consciousness to approach it, he took out a jade box and put the fruit in it.

The Silver Star Fruit suddenly had twinkling white light around it, as if it had sensed danger. It looked it was going to exert some teleportation method to flee.

However, it was too late. Ye Xuan had already picked it up.

“The third one.”

A faint look of joy flashed across Ye Xuan’s face when he had put the Silver Star Fruit away.

By then, he had got three Silver Star Fruits in all.

One of them was right in his hand.

Another one was picked up by one of the Tidal Treasure Snails.

The last one was the one Lil Wan had just got.

As to that unlucky Wind-Winged Double-Headed Wolf which swallowed the Silver Star Fruit, Lil Wan already killed it.

“So, this is what a Silver Star Fruit looks like!”

In a valley far away, Lil Wan pierced the Divine Wood Royal Vine Gun through the Wind-Winged Double-Headed Wolf body. Extending her hand, she drew the fruit to her by Mind Energy.

However, she humphed after sensing that thing and then put it away immediately.

Apparently, Silver Star Fruits were useless to her.

Whoosh!

She sensed Ye Xuan’s location and then flew there at high speed.

“You four disperse and search the entire Secret Realm. Don’t come back to me until you have got every Silver Star Fruit you can get.”

While Lil Wan was flying to Ye Xuan, Ye Xuan shifted his consciousness to disperse the four Tidal Treasure Snails after detecting how far away they were from him.

He suddenly realized he did not have to make the four stick with him at all.

They were strong enough to wander about in this Secret Realm by themselves. As long as they did not look for danger themselves, they would not run into any.

And he felt secure enough at the moment to send them away.

So that they could fly across the entire Secret Realm quickly.

He would like them to get all the Silver Star Fruits that they could get for the moment.

As to those more difficult to get, he could wait until later.

“Ye Xuan, wait for me!”

Not long after the Tidal Treasure Snails had scattered, Lil Wan caught up with him from behind.

She landed on his shoulder right away.

She was going to drive the Heavenly Punishment Thundercloud Wings back into its Beast Lair as soon as she landed on Ye Xuan’s shoulder.

I want to spend time with Ye Xuan alone.

Don’t be a third wheel here.

“Lil Wan, please go back to your Beast Lair for now. Lil Xi is not here. I will need to count on you to detect dangers.”

“Copy that. No problem.”

Lil Wan agreed immediately.

Then she flashed back into her Beast Lair.

As to the idea of enjoying their time together, just her and him, it was already discarded as soon as Ye Xuan raised his request to her.

“I remember one of the Tidal Treasure Snails had sent me an image from this direction before I sensed its location for the last time.”

“It told me there is a Silver Star Fruit hard to get, which dropped very close to a monster on the Silver level.”

Ye Xuan went in the direction marked in the last image a Tidal Treasure Snail had sent to him at high speed.

He just wanted to give it a try to see whether he could get that Silver Star Fruit.

Then he would stroll around in the Secret Realm carefreely while expecting the good news from the four Tidal Treasure Snails.

Otherwise, while the four Tidal Treasure Snails were searching the entire Secret Realm for the traces of Silver Star Fruits to collect them.

Even if he were busy running about with Lil Wan and other beasts of his for one or two hours, it would just be in vain, and he would not get anything.

“Ye Xuan, Ye Xuan, go another direction. Go left. Don’t go right.”

Standing on the ancient giant tree at the center of her world, Lil Wan concentrated on sensing everything in the outside world.

She always had acute senses.

And they were even acuter when she was in her Beast Lair, so she could help Ye Xuan avoid many dangers in advance.

…

“Come on!”

In some place in the Secret Realm, three Beast Tamers from the Xia flew in a direction with frustration after killing a group of Silver Moon Flying Wolves.

They saw a Silver Star Fruit shining on a hill from far away earlier.

If it were not those Silver Moon Flying Wolves, which showed up suddenly to sabotage their plan, they would have got that Silver Star Fruit.

And they would not have ended up like then, in such a hurry and worrying the Silver Star Fruit would fly away again.

Whoosh!

However, while they were speeding up, a round-shaped flowing light flashed far away and then instantly showed up on the other side of the hill.

It swooped at a big rock on the hill to pick up that Silver Star Fruit. Then it left right away.

“Darn it. What is that? Give my Silver Star Fruit back to me! It is supposed to be mine!”

These Beast Tamers, who were running at high speed, saw the Silver Star Fruit that they were pursuing suddenly vanish from the hill in the blink of an eye.

That made them hit the ceiling right away. They dashed onto the hill as fast as they could.

However, when they looked around after they had been at the peak of the hill, they could not find any trace of the round thing that had taken the fruit away.

They had no idea that they were not the only group that had experienced this in the Secret Realm at the moment.

“Shoot. What is that? It looks like one of Ye Xuan’s beasts.”

“It can’t be. I mean, how is that even possible?”
