103: I, Bingqing, can never be a mount!

Outside Qingqiu City, people gathered like a tide.

At this moment.

As a faint magical fluctuation swept across the entire area, everyone's gaze immediately fell upon the entrance to the Black Fox Village Secret Realm.

At the entrance, the space, with the appearance of magical fluctuations, rippled like water into which a stone had been thrown.

The next second.

The ripples surged even more violently, finally forming a constantly rotating spatial vortex three meters in diameter.

Through the spatial vortex, an unknown space could be seen behind it.

"It's finally open!"

"It's not in vain that I've waited here for three days; I hope I can find precious magical Materials in the Secret Realm!"

"I heard that the drop rate for monsters inside is quite high. I'm not greedy; as long as I can get a silver-Ranked equipment, it'll be enough!"

...

When the spatial vortex appeared, the eyes of the crowd gathered outside the city straightened, and excited expressions appeared on their faces.

However, although many ordinary Awakeners were eager to enter the Secret Realm, at this moment, none of them took the first step. Instead, they focused their attention on the area closest to the spatial vortex.

There, teachers and students from several universities stood solemnly.

The teacher from Qingqiu University, the host, seeing the spatial vortex appear, gave the command to enter.

In an instant, the students participating in the exchange meeting orderly stepped into the spatial vortex.

Wang Chen naturally followed the crowd.

...

Buzz buzz buzz!

Amidst the swirling world, when Wang Chen's feet touched solid ground again, he had already arrived in another space.

Looking around, the scenery was beautiful, the vegetation lush, the air filled with a fresh scent, and green trees and red flowers adorned the mountains and rivers.

If one didn't know this was a dangerous Secret Realm, anyone seeing it for the first time would think it was a scenic tourist spot.

"It seems that entering the Secret Realm involves random teleportation."

While observing his surroundings, Wang Chen also noticed that the students who entered with him did not appear in the same place as him.

Moreover, in his line of sight, there were no other people around him.

However, Wang Chen was not too surprised by this.

Every large Secret Realm has an internal space at least the size of a large city.

A few thousand people in such a vast space can be said to be a drop in the ocean.

Unless they converge towards the central area, the chance of meeting each other upon initial entry is extremely small.

"Master, master, let's go find the fox heart grass quickly!"

"Communicating 'woo woo' with this fellow Su Su every day is so tiring!"

While Wang Chen was observing his surroundings, Ice Purity flapped her wings and flew around him, her small face full of anticipation.

"Woo woo!"

On his shoulder, Nine-tailed Celestial Fox Su Su was the same.

"Alright!"

Hearing the two little fellows, Wang Chen smiled and nodded, his gaze far-reaching, falling on a distant mountain peak in the forest.

According to the information he had heard from other Awakeners before, the final boss of the Secret Realm, the Black Fox Leader, had his lair built on that mountain peak.

Before entering the Secret Realm, Wang Chen already had a complete plan in mind.

First, obtain the fox heart grass to allow Su Su to enter a new growth cycle, and then hunt monsters to gain points.

After all, Su Su's Rank had reached level forty, the limit of her first growth cycle, so no matter how much experience she gained, she couldn't level up.

"At this distance, if we rely solely on walking, we'll probably be walking for a very long time..."

Estimating the distance between himself and the mountain peak, Wang Chen looked at Ice Purity with an expectant expression.

Perceiving his master's gaze, Ice Purity's heart couldn't help but feel a sense of foreboding.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

She flapped her wings to move further away from her master, then looked at him with a wary expression.

"Master, what do you want to do?"

"Be good, let me ride you for a bit!"

Looking at Ice Purity, Wang Chen rubbed his hands, saying expectantly.

Ever since he contracted the Extreme Cold Dragon, he had always looked forward to being a Dragon Knight.

But when he was in the Myriad Beasts Mountain Range before, flying into the sky was too dangerous, and he never found an opportunity.

This time, Wang Chen felt like his dream was about to come true.

"No!"

"I'm so small; Master, one of your feet is bigger than me. You'll flatten me."

Hearing Wang Chen's words, Ice Purity's small head shook like a rattle drum, and her two small paws protected her front, showing great reluctance.

How could a dignified Extreme Cold Dragon, a noble Ancestral Divine Beast, be ridden by someone, even her master!

Seeing the little fellow's resistant look, Wang Chen touched his nose, a strange smile appearing on his face.

"Be good, were the snacks I bought last time delicious? Do you still want to eat them?"

Looking at Ice Purity, he said enticingly.

"Delicious!"

Hearing his words, Ice Purity subconsciously nodded, feeling like her saliva was about to flow out.

"No, Master, your temptation is useless. Even if you buy me a pile of snacks, I can't fly with you on my back."

"You're abusing a young Dragon!"

But as an Extreme Cold Dragon, Ice Purity still had her principles. She swallowed her saliva, resisting the temptation of the delicious food.

"Do you see this spatial ring?"

However, Wang Chen had already thought of a countermeasure for this. He showed Ice Purity the spatial ring on his finger, shaking it.

"As long as you fly me to that mountain peak, I'll fill this spatial ring with snacks."

"Fill it?"

Hearing her master's words, little Ice Purity's face showed a hint of interest.

The spatial ring had an area of five cubic meters; if it were all filled, wouldn't she be able to swim in a pile of snacks?

Thinking to herself, Ice Purity flapped her wings and flew in front of Wang Chen.

"Master, let's make a pinky promise; you can't lie to me!"

Seeing the little fellow's wary look, Wang Chen secretly chuckled.

Gaga ga!

He could moonlight as a Dragon Knight in the future!

"Of course, I'm very trustworthy."

Wang Chen said sincerely, extending his finger to hook the little Dragon's claw.

"Then... let's go!"

With the agreement reached, Ice Purity hesitated for a moment, then flapped her wings, preparing to enter battle mode.

But just then...

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!

Several violent sounds of air being torn apart rang out, and three black figures instantly surrounded Wang Chen.

These were three bipedal foxes, covered in black fur, exuding a bloodthirsty aura.

At this moment, they looked at Wang Chen, their crimson eyes filled with cruelty, as if they had seen delicious food.

However.

After these three monsters surrounded Wang Chen, they did not immediately attack. Instead, they stood still, somewhat hesitant.

Their gaze, after sweeping over Nine-tailed Celestial Fox Su Su on Wang Chen's shoulder, showed confusion and apprehension in their crimson eyes.

Even though they were just unintelligent monsters, they could feel the noble Bloodline aura from Nine-tailed Celestial Fox.
