The master before its eyes could help it beco stronger. Sure enough, having just successfully beco its disciple, its strength had once again improved.
The little Paperman was eager to try. Only by working hard constantly could it live up to its master’s trust and help!
If Su Ping weren’t still there, the little Paperman would have already planned to continue practicing drawing its sword ten thousand tis and thrusting ten thousand tis, using the thods taught by its master.
However, quite obviously, the little Paperman’s wish to continue working hard was unfulfilled because Su Ping, unable to sleep, had brought it to the place where they first t—the banks of the Lingxi River. He lay there on the lawn ford by Wolf Tobacco.
Co to think of it, Wolf Tobacco had no particular sll before it was processed and burned.
Even so, it had a stronger Life Force than common grass. Even though it was clearly autumn, it still grew extrely dense and lush.
The little Paperman, Qian Yi, didn’t know why its master had brought it here.
In fact, Su Ping just had nothing better to do.
He wanted to understand the little Paperman better and still had many questions about that Secret Realm, so he had simply picked a random place.
Previously, the little Paperman hadn’t hidden anything from Su Ping.
However, the little Paperman’s intelligence and its innate ability for Telepathic Communication were still relatively rudintary.
For many specific questions, Su Ping could not get a definite answer.
Now, with the Soul Contract connecting them, Su Ping felt he could further question the little Paperman about the Secret Realm.
So, he thought for a mont and asked, "Qian Yi, in your ho, have you seen any companions like yourself?"
This was a question Qian Yi previously couldn’t answer accurately.
Even when using nods for yes and shakes of the head for no, the little Paperman’s behavior of nodding and shaking its head simultaneously had confused Su Ping.
But this ti, with the effect of the soul connection, Su Ping finally understood the little Paperman’s complex ssage:
"EEEP! (Yes... but they are not the sa as Qian Yi!)"
Huh?
Clearly, such an answer was enough to prove that there were other beings in this Secret Realm. However, Qian Yi’s aning was also quite clear: although there were Pet Beasts in the Secret Realm, they were not Papern like itself.
Undoubtedly, this sparked even greater curiosity in Su Ping.
Although he hadn’t bought any real Papern for a thorough study during this ti, he had used the fragnted spare monts—ti others might spend browsing short videos—to search and read a considerable amount of data.
This data was even downloaded from the Breeder Association.
He also understood.
Papern were a very special Undead Race, like Skeleton Soldiers; if they didn’t evolve, individuals were very weak.
A Paperman, let alone surviving, even its birth was very peculiar.
However, considering the Sword Soul Mark on the little Paperman and its Perfect Level Jinge Technique, Su Ping felt that this peculiarity seed tolerable.
So, Su Ping didn’t rush to ask again about the situation in the Secret Realm. Instead, he thought for a mont, but couldn’t resist his curiosity and asked Qian Yi directly, "Qian Yi, can you use the Sword Soul Mark skill?!"
The little Paperman tilted its head slightly, then looked at Su Ping in surprise.
The next second, a ripple in space appeared, and the little Paperman vanished without a trace.
Clearly, it had returned directly to that Mysterious Realm Space.
"Huh?" Su Ping was also stunned.
Was the Sword Soul Mark simply a portal back to the Secret Realm?
Co to think of it, when the little Paperman first mastered this spatial doorway, Su Ping had thought he’d encountered a rare spatial-Attribute Pet Beast.
But it seed that wasn’t the case after all.
But really, did this skill only have this one effect?
Space rippled again, and the next second, the little Paperman reappeared beside Su Ping.
So, Su Ping thought for a mont. "Qian Yi, try infusing your Energy into this Sword Soul Mark again."
The little Paperman didn’t understand what he ant, but it seed it really hadn’t tried it before.
For the little Paperman, this Sword Soul Mark seed to be an instinctual ability, like eating and drinking for a normal person. Although it did consu so stamina, it was essentially negligible.
And what would happen if one used all their might—the kind used for suckling—on an instinctual action like eating or drinking?
Obviously, no one in their right mind would likely try such a thing.
However, under its master’s command, the little Paperman ticulously chose to execute it!
But this ti, a scene Su Ping had never witnessed before slowly unfolded before his eyes!
At that mont, Qian Yi, who had previously only differed in outward appearance from ordinary Papern, slowly began to manifest a faint shadow on its body.
This shadow was nothing other than a sword!
It appeared on the little Paperman’s body, behind it, like a strange cross disproportionate to its size.
The next mont, Su Ping’s breath caught in his throat.
From the void, it felt as if sothing in the great unknown had responded. If he had to make a comparison, it was sowhat similar to when he advanced to the Elite Level and his Beast Taming Space awakened its Space Characteristics.
It just wasn’t as dramatic.
Under the call of this sword shadow, right there on the bank of the Lingxi River, it was as if water from another dinsion had spilled into this space. A ripple spread out, and then, right before Su Ping’s stunned eyes, a portal large enough for one person to pass through appeared.
Had the gate to the Secret Realm opened?!
...
「Linzhou City Center.」
High up in an Advanced Level apartnt building, within a dark room, a pair of eyes snapped open, illuminating the pitch-black space like a beacon.
The next mont, the lights ca on. Dong Muyun’s beautiful eyes furrowed. Then, with a thought, a silver light glead.
"CHIRP CHIRP!"
The Soaring Fish’s calls and movents startled Dong Muyun from her ditation.
"What’s wrong?"
Dong Muyun’s brows knitted slightly.
Through their Soul Contract, she already sensed the reason for the Soaring Fish’s agitation.
"The spatial marker you left has had a huge reaction?!"
Ever since completely falling out with Su Ping and realizing she had no way of dealing with that young troublemaker, Dong Muyun had not returned to Yuntian Resort.
As the chairman of Tianyun Group, Dong Muyun was hardly idle.
She had decided that out of sight was out of mind.
But unexpectedly, she still couldn’t escape it.
Feeling the Soaring Fish’s agitation, Dong Muyun eventually couldn’t hold back.
Although her negotiations with that brat had collapsed, and even if she didn’t have exploration rights, surely just taking a look wouldn’t hurt?
Damn it. A few years back, its Soaring Fish had a breakthrough and mastered the Special Skill ’Spatial Perception.’ While passing by a suburban area, it unexpectedly detected a peculiar reaction from the Heart of Woods. From this, she realized the space here was fragile and an unknown Secret Realm might descend.
Then, she began to make preparations.
Years went by, and not only did she co up empty-handed, but she also attracted a load of trouble.
However, no matter what, this was a Secret Realm she had been curious about and anticipating for years.
If she didn’t see what kind of Secret Realm it was, what lay within, which historical Beast Tar powerhouse might have left it, and what type of Pet Beasts predominated there, Dong Muyun knew she would truly not be content.
So, without a second thought, she cald the frantically chirping Soaring Fish, then put on a pair of gold-rimd glasses and said in a low voice, "Yunning, switch to flight mode!"
"Master, you are currently in Linzhou City Center and not in a combat state. There are sky surveillance devices in the city center. Unauthorized flight without a permit will result in being photographed and fined. Are you sure you wish to enter flight mode?"
The chanical voice did not faze Dong Muyun.
Although the influence and privileges of the prominent families and Beast Tar clans had greatly diminished since that person took power, she could still handle such a minor issue.
"Confirm!"
Instantly, what looked like liquid tal flowed from the pendant around Dong Muyun’s neck, covering her.
It ford an extrely compact suit of battle armor. Then, from the window of the apartnt, a hundred ters high, she leaped out.
