99: Chapter 99 Cloud-Maned Flowing Light Rabbit

Lin Fan himself was also close to the Armor Spirit realm; if he encountered a suitable one, his third Armor Spirit would be settled.

"Alright. When are we leaving?"

Ye Wushuang looked at the sky.

"Tomorrow morning. Let's prepare our supplies today."

Then he looked at Lin Fan.

"The Armor Spirit cubs of the Cloud-Maned Flowing Light Rabbit require a Breeder to judge their Aptitude and evolutionary potential."

Tsundere guy, if you want my help, just say so.

Lin Fan patted Ye Wushuang on the shoulder.

"Don't worry, with me here, I won't let you pick a defective one."

...

The next day, just as dawn broke, the three of them were already heading towards the Secret Realm.

The old rules: verify identities and pay the entrance fee.

An Intermediate Secret Realm was indeed incomparable to an Elementary Secret Realm; the entrance fee alone was 500,000 per person.

Of course, this money was paid by the wealthy Ye.

Since he volunteered to pay, Lin Fan and Ye Qing were naturally happy to save on this expense.

The Canglan Secret Realm was much more vast than Lin Fan had imagined.

The sky was a very pale cyan, with large patches of flocculent clouds drifting by.

In the distance were rolling hills, covered with vast meadows of silvery-white grass.

When the wind blew, the waves of grass surged like flowing moonlight.

Ye Wushuang unfolded the map, his finger tracing a route marked in red.

"The Cloud-Flow Abyss is deep within the Secret Realm, about two hours away on foot. Along the way, we will pass through several meadows and a stone forest, which is the main activity area for rabbit-type Armor Beasts."

Ye Qing stretched her wrists.

"Then let's go. The sooner we arrive, the sooner we can start looking."

The three set off along the route marked on the map.

After walking for about an hour, traces of rabbit-type Armor Beasts began to appear on the meadows.

The first ones they saw were a group of Gray-Eared Jumping Rabbits; they were only the size of a house cat, with extremely long, grayish-brown ears and thick, powerful hind legs.

They hopped around on the meadow, gnawing on the silvery-white grass blades, occasionally perking up their ears to look around vigilantly.

Lin Fan's left eye felt slightly warm, and information appeared.

Gray-Eared Jumping Rabbit, high-grade mortal spirit Aptitude, Earth attribute, skilled at jumping.

Ye Qing only glanced at them, evidently uninterested.

The three continued walking forward.

The meadow became wider and wider, and the variety of rabbit-type Armor Beasts increased.

It could be said that it allowed everyone to witness what the diversity of rabbit species was all about.

Red-Furred Rabbits, Gray-Eared Jumping Rabbits, Wind-Riding Rabbits... from mortal spirit rank to mysterious Spirit Rank, all kinds of rabbits were there.

Rabbit-type Armor Beasts generally had no aggression; if you didn't provoke them, they couldn't be bothered to pay you any mind.

Everyone was dazzled, but they still hadn't found any trace of the Cloud-Maned Flowing Light Rabbit.

After walking for a while longer, a low stone forest appeared ahead.

The stone pillars varied in height, the tallest being no more than two people high, with surfaces covered in dark cyan moss. Ye Qing stopped in her tracks.

"This should be the stone forest area marked on the map. The territory of the Cloud-Maned Flowing Light Rabbit is further inside."

No sooner had she finished speaking than a rabbit with a silvery-gray body suddenly darted out from behind a stone pillar.

That rabbit was larger than any they had seen before, standing a full half-person tall, with long, slender limbs and a body covered in fine, silvery-gray scales instead of fur.

It crouched on a stone pillar, staring at the three of them with those amber eyes, its ears pricked straight up, its hind legs slightly coiled to spring.

Lin Fan's left eye felt hot.

Silver-Scaled Rock Rabbit, Rank 28, low-grade Earth Spirit, Metal attribute, extremely strong defense, can harden its fur to withstand blades and swords.

Ye Qing's eyes lit up. "A low-grade Earth Spirit Silver-Scaled Rock Rabbit. If this rabbit is raised well, it would be good as a tank."

The Silver-Scaled Rock Rabbit seemed to sense something and kicked off with its hind legs.

The whole... no, the entire rabbit turned into a silvery-gray shadow and disappeared behind the stone pillars.

Ye Qing clicked her tongue. "It runs really fast."

Lin Fan teased.

"The look in your eyes just now was like you wanted to eat it; who wouldn't run away?"

Ye Qing stomped hard on Lin Fan's foot, making him grimace in pain.

"That'll teach you to run your mouth!"

The three passed through the stone forest, and the meadow became even more open.

In the distance, rolling hills appeared, covered in low shrubs with tiny, delicate white flowers.

There was a faint, sweet fragrance in the air.

Lin Fan crouched down and picked up a tuft of white fur from the ground. The fur was very soft, shimmering with a faint silvery light in the sunlight, with a subtle radiance flickering along the edges.

His left eye felt slightly warm.

"Cloud-Maned Flowing Light Rabbit fur, it hasn't been shed for more than a day."

Ye Wushuang walked over and took the fur to examine it.

"It seems they are nearby."

He put away the fur and looked at the hills in the distance.

"The Cloud-Flow Abyss is on the other side of the hills."

The three quickened their pace.

Along the way, they encountered several more types of rabbit-type Armor Beasts.

A group of snow-white Frost-Fur Rabbits were gnawing on leaves in the bushes, with low-grade mysterious spirit Aptitude and Ice attribute.

Two large Thunder-Mane Rabbits were fighting on the hillside, their bodies crackling with electricity, with high-grade mysterious spirit Aptitude and Lightning attribute; they were actually quite interesting.

But these rabbits didn't even have Earth Spirit Rank Aptitude, so naturally, they were beneath the group's notice.

Finally, after crossing the last hill, the Cloud-Flow Abyss appeared before their eyes.

It was a long, narrow canyon with steep cliffs on both sides, covered in silvery-white vines that hung down like waterfalls.

The bottom of the valley was shrouded in mist, flowing slowly like a tangible, milky-white river.

"Cloud-Maned Flowing Light Rabbits love to live deep within the mist and feed on the tender shoots of the cloud-flow vine."

Ye Wushuang lowered his voice, his gaze sweeping over the churning clouds in the valley.

"Be careful, they are extremely fast and highly alert to unfamiliar scents."

After speaking, he noticed that Ye Qing and Lin Fan were looking at him with strange expressions.

Only then did he realize that both of them were Genius Breeders, and he was truly showing off before experts.

He gave a light cough to hide his embarrassment and walked towards the mouth of the valley first.

No sooner had the three approached the valley entrance than a sharp screech came from deep within the mist, sounding like the friction of metal, carrying a clear warning.

Ye Wushuang paused, raising his hand to signal them to stop.

Lin Fan held his breath, his left eye warming slightly, his vision piercing through the churning mist.

On the cliffs on both sides of the valley entrance, several silvery-white figures were emerging from the mist.

The first to appear were two Mist-Light Rabbits, crouching on the protruding rocks of the cliff, their bodies covered in grayish-white fur, with faint silver patterns along the edges of the fur.

It wasn't as distinct as the Cloud-Maned Flowing Light Rabbit, but rather like ink diluted by water.

Their eyes were pale gold, with lightning patterns in their pupils flickering in and out of sight, and they were a size larger than ordinary rabbits, about half a person tall.

Lin Fan's left eye information appeared.

Mist-Light Rabbit, mid-grade Earth Spirit, dual Lightning and Light attributes, one of the degenerate forms of the Cloud-Maned Flowing Light Rabbit.

Their Rank is between twenty and thirty-five; the ones at the valley entrance are mostly around Rank twenty-seven or twenty-eight.

Walking further in, the mist grew thicker, but Lin Fan's left eye saw clearly.

A small stream wound its way through the bottom of the valley, and large patches of silvery-white vines grew along the banks, blooming with tiny, delicate white flowers—that was the cloud-flow vine, the favorite food of the Cloud-Maned Flowing Light Rabbit.

A few Mist-Light Rabbits were crouching by the stream, gnawing on the tender shoots, their movements cautious, lifting their heads from time to time to look around vigilantly.
