26: Chapter 26 A Feast of Transactions? The Pavilion Master of Linglong Pavilion is Shocked!

"Huh???"

Seeing Lu Chen revive completely unscathed, Mordex was stunned, its head buzzing, unable to process the situation for a moment, even though undead don't have brains.

It wasn't until Lu Chen snapped his fingers and over a thousand F-Rank Shadow Soul Mice scurried out that it finally came back to its senses.

"Damn it! He still has so many beast pets?"

Seeing the thousand-plus Shadow Soul Mice emerge, Mordex felt its heart instantly turn ice-cold.

With the opponent's high attribute bonuses, even if the Shadow Soul Mice weren't good at attacking, they could easily kill it!

All its calculations!

It just didn't account for the opponent being unkillable and having a thousand Shadow Soul Mice. Isn't this cheating a bit too ridiculous?

"Ahahaha, brave youth of the Human Race, actually, there's no need for us to fight and kill. I am a peace-loving undead monster; otherwise, I wouldn't have chosen to slumber here!"

Lu Chen felt a wave of disdain. Peace-loving? It was clearly just unable to break through the Bahu Guild's blockade barrier, forcing it to recuperate here and wait for an opportunity to invade.

"Since you love peace, then sleep here forever!"

Upon hearing this, Mordex bristled: "Brat, don't think I'm really afraid of you. If you really push me too far, we'll just go down together!"

"Go down together? Are you qualified?"

Lu Chen sneered and waved his hand, and the thousand Shadow Soul Mice launched a collective attack.

"No! I am a great Undead Lord BOSS, how could it end like this?"

But the response it received was the biting of a thousand Shadow Soul Mice, and its health bar was instantly emptied.

Seeing this, the other undead commanders retreated in terror, wanting to return to the Alien Monster World through the rift.

But how could Lu Chen let them go? The Shadow Soul Mice continued their assault.

Before long.

This group of commander BOSSes followed in the footsteps of the Undead Lord.

"Run! That pit-digging Lord Mordex was insta-killed by the opponent!"

The undead Invading Monsters fled in a rout again, this time all escaping toward the direction of the rift.

Lu Chen's beast pets pursued them all the way.

In the end,

only a small portion of the undead Invading Monsters successfully escaped, while Lu Chen and his beast pets stopped outside the rift because Lu Chen received a System prompt that he could not enter!

"This... is this the spatial rift that allows Invading Monsters to come to the real world?"

Lu Chen looked calmly at the dark rift where black lightning was raging before him.

He tried to approach the spatial rift, but was blocked by an invisible dark force.

Lu Chen had his beast pets try to attack it, but it still prompted that he couldn't enter; other than that, there were no other prompts.

Lu Chen knew,

this spatial rift must connect to the Alien Monster World and is also the root cause involving the job transfer for the whole population.

"I guess my Rank is too low and my power is too weak, so I can't actively step into the Alien Monster World yet!"

Lu Chen had no choice but to give up.

He began to have his beast pets thoroughly clean up the battlefield.

Lu Chen went to pick up the items dropped by the Undead Lord, and a shiny token caught his eye.

"Guild Token!!!"

Lu Chen's eyes lit up.

This was an item for creating a guild. Its drop rate was very low, and it was usually only possible to drop it upon the first kill of a Secret Realm BOSS.

Xihai City was so large with hundreds of thousands of people, yet there were only a dozen or so guilds, which showed the rarity of the Guild Token.

Just this one Guild Token, if advertised well and auctioned, could sell for at least 200,000 gold coins!

But Lu Chen didn't intend to sell it; he wanted to keep it, as he might need it in the future.

In this world, no guild power was as stable as one created by oneself; only by being strong oneself could one go further, and one's family could also be better protected.

Before long.

The Swift Black Tortoise returned carrying a one-meter-sized Divine Stone on its back.

"This is... a Third-Rank Advancement Divine Stone!!!"

Lu Chen was pleasantly surprised.

He hadn't expected the Silent Bone Ridge Secret Realm to have an Advancement Divine Stone, and a Third-Rank one at that, which meant he could receive advancement quests up to the Third Rank.

This thing was a treasure of immense value. Many guilds didn't even have an Advancement Divine Stone, and it was one of the most important resources for a guild!

Only with an Advancement Divine Stone could one attract more new job-transferring recruits and rapidly develop the guild's strength.

"In this way, I won't need to go to other guilds to accept advancement quests."

If he hadn't farmed this Advancement Divine Stone, if he wanted to accept a Third-Rank advancement quest, he would either need a powerful status or connections and pay some advancement fees, or he would have to join another guild to possibly receive advancement quests above the Third Rank.

But now that he had this Third-Rank Advancement Divine Stone, he could directly accept Third-Rank advancement quests.

It's just that Third-Rank advancement quests require collecting advancement quest Materials from the start.

This was also another main reason why many low-level job-transferring professionals get stuck at the Second Rank; because Third-Rank advancement Materials are not easy to collect, and the price is also expensive!

Lu Chen opened the Beast Tamer Third-Rank advancement Material collection panel: Second-Rank Any Beast Claw X60, Second-Rank Beast Core Crystal X20, Second-Rank Contract Rune X1!

The first two Materials were fine, but the main Material, the Contract Rune, was not easy to obtain. This thing only drops from BOSSes, and the drop rate is not high.

Lu Chen opened the System shop to see if there were any advancement quest Materials for sale, but there were none.

"Ding, quest-type items are not for sale; only items the host can personally use are sold!"

Lu Chen decided that after cleaning up the battlefield, he would ask Pavilion Master Linglong if she had any; otherwise, he would have to go back and farm the Two-Star Secret Realm BOSS until he farmed the Second-Rank Contract Rune Material!

Soon.

The other beast pets returned collectively, and all the items dropped by the Invading Monsters in the Silent Bone Ridge Secret Realm had been picked up by them.

This trip!

Lu Chen could be said to have gained a huge harvest, not comparable to the Secret Realms he had farmed before.

This gave Lu Chen a clear path in his mind: farm Invasion Secret Realms to level up, and farm Material Secret Realms and challenge Secret Realm records to make money!

At this moment.

Lu Chen's Rank had already risen to Second-Rank LV60!

Farming monsters above one's Rank has extra experience bonuses.

Moreover, the experience from Invading Monsters in Invasion Secret Realms is much higher than in normal Secret Realms, plus the number of undead Invading Monsters in this Secret Realm was huge.

Naturally,

Lu Chen easily reached Second-Rank Level 60, but his beast pets were still a bit behind.

Except for the Little Black Tortoise and over a thousand other beast pets that reached LV60, the newly contracted Ice Horn Ant beast pets only reached LV50, but that was enough.

After a simple inventory check, Lu Chen discovered that besides tens of thousands of gold coins, there were also over a dozen skill books, and a few main Materials for Third-Rank advancement for some classes.

As well as hundreds of pieces of decent quality equipment; the best one was an Orange-quality Third-Rank weapon, which was exactly the sword the Undead Lord had just now, suitable for the Warrior class!

There were also quite a few other Third-Rank Materials.

If all of these were sold, they could sell for at least over 200,000 gold coins!

This didn't even count the Third-Rank Advancement Divine Stone and the Guild Token; otherwise, just from this one trip, Lu Chen could earn at least 500,000 gold coins!

Of course.

This was because Lu Chen had the benefit of the first clear, which allowed him to obtain so many precious items.

Lu Chen kept the Guild Token and the Third-Rank Advancement Divine Stone; these were what he needed at the moment.

Immediately, Lu Chen contacted Pavilion Master Linglong and remotely traded the other items to her, splitting the converted gold coins fifty-fifty. With so many items, it would be enough to stun her!

The reason he kept his promise.

Firstly, the fact that the Invading Monsters in this Secret Realm had been cleared out would be exposed sooner or later.

Secondly, he also needed to use Jinbao Pavilion to collect advancement Materials, and he also needed Pavilion Master Linglong to continue providing him with high-star Secret Realm tickets in the future.

This was a long-term cooperation, so Lu Chen naturally wouldn't break his word, just keep some things for himself.

At this moment, Yu Linglong was taking a bath. When she received the trade request from Lu Chen, she smiled with a beauty that could topple cities.

"This little brother is really capable of farming the Silent Bone Ridge Secret Realm!"

But when she opened the trading page and saw the items filling the page, she was so shocked that she sprang up on the spot:

"This... this... this... a full inventory trade?"
