Chapter 70 - Challenging the Mystic Realm of Earth
Chapter 70: Challenging the Mystic Realm of Earth
After entering the Mystic Realm, Fang Yuan found himself standing at the foot of the mountain.
“Young man, are you here to challenge the Mystic Realm?” A old man said as he stood in the wooden house at the foot of the mountain.
Fang Yuan found it amusing. Obviously, he was not here for sightseeing.
However, the thought of respecting the old and loving the young still had a deep impact. Fang yuan nodded and answered, “Yes. May I ask if you can exchange points here?”
“Of course,” the old man said, “I’m the guardian of this arcane realm. You can call me Old Man Tu. After going up the mountain from here, you will encounter many earth-type pet beasts. Here, you can only use earth-type pet beasts to fight. If you summon pet beasts of other attributes, you will be expelled from the arcane realm. Be careful.”
“Why is there such a setting?” Fang Yuan did not understand. He was not a simple trainer, and it was not his style to follow others’ orders blindly.
“Because this Mystic Realm is a cultivation journey to improve your earth-type pet beast’s strength, not a simple battle,” said Old Man Tu. “Follow me first.”
“Okay, but you’d better hurry up. I can only stay in the mystic realm for 24 hours.” This was a level three mystic realm. Twenty-four hours here was equivalent to about one and a half hours outside the mystic realm.
The passage of time was different, which was also the mystery of the arcane realm.
“Hehe, young people nowadays really don’t have patience,” Old Man Tu said as he led Fang Yuan into the small wooden house.
The booth inside the wooden house was filled with densely packed materials.
Fang Yuan took a liking to the material [Spiritual Armor] at a glance. It was a tool for his [Titan Armored Bear] to evolve.
Fang Yuan wanted to reach out to touch it, but he found nothing.
[Insufficient points. Exchange failed.]
A system notification sounded in the small wooden house. Old Man Tu chuckled. “Young man, if you want to exchange for a tool, you have to complete the mission first and obtain points before you can exchange for it.”
“How many points does this cost?” Fang Yuan asked.
“The Spiritual Armor is a material for the armored bear to evolve its agility attribute. It requires 10,000 points. Other than agility attribute, there are also [Red Bear Claw] , [Armored Heart] , and so on, which have evolved strength attribute, and so on. They all cost 10,000 points. “But you have to think carefully. Each pet can only choose one direction to evolve at a certain level,” explained old man Tu.
“How do I get points?” Fang Yuan could not wait any longer.
“When you go to the bar, you will see a list of tasks. After you choose a task, you will be given a task book. When you complete the task, the task book will automatically disappear and be converted into points. It will be automatically recorded in your file,” Old Man Tu explained, “I know you don’t want to waste time. Go and read it yourself. You can only accept one task at a time.”
Fang Yuan stood under the task bar and began to read.
[D rank quest: Collect 20 jars of honey. Reward points: 5]
[C rank quest: Kill 100 Earth Dogs (low-grade gold). Reward points: 10]
[B Rank Quest: Kill the Earth binding spider king (middle-grade gold). Reward Points: 50]
[A rank quest: kill the one-eyed Giant Rock Monster (Peak Gold). Reward Points: 100]
[S rank quest: defeat the mountain giant (low-grade platinum). Reward points: 500]
“Platinum Low-grade Mountain Giant?” Fang Yuan had never heard of this pet before. However, the pet world was ever-changing, and it was impossible for anyone to know all the pet beasts. However, it sounded irrational to fight a character called the Mountain Giant on the mountain.
“Oh right, young man, there’s one more thing I want to tell you. You will receive a corresponding set of materials for defeating the quest monster. That won’t appear in the reward column.”
After listening to Old Man Tu’s words, it was obvious that he was trying to tempt him to challenge the highest level Mountain Giant.
Fang Yuan looked at the ‘Earth Realm Certification (level 3)’ on the counter again. It also required 10,000 points.
“If you’re lucky, you only need to return 20 times to get the ‘Earth Realm Certification’. Isn’t that very reasonable?” Old Man Tu smiled maliciously.
What? If one wanted to win 20 times against a low-grade platinum pet beast, one would have to win against a mid-grade platinum pet beast.
However, since he was already here, he couldn’t give up so easily.
He thus chose the S-grade mission.
A scroll then appeared in Fang Yuan’s palm.
[Scientific name: Mountain Giant]
[Bloodline: Titan]
[Quality: Low-grade Platinum]
[Attributes: Earth, rock]
[Positioning: Attack/defense]
[Skills: 1. Rock Toss, 2. Uprooting trees, 3. Petrifying skin]
[Personality: Steady]
[Likes: None]
[Skill description: None]
[Reproductive ability: None]
What a good no likes, no reproductive ability. It seemed like this pet beast was an emotionless killing machine.
Just as the scroll touched him...
The system was activated again.
[Ding. Mission scroll detected. Map level: Level 3. Mission level: S]
[Do you wish to receive a 100-fold enhancement?]
[Host can choose from the following enhancement methods.]
[First, you have to give up the 100-fold enhancement and obtain an S grade mission scroll.]
[Second, you have to give up the 100-fold enhancement quality and obtain an SSS grade mission scroll.]
[Third, 100 times enhanced time. obtained SSS grade mission scroll. 100 times reward for mission points.]
In the past, Fang Yuan would have chosen SSS grade mission scroll. However, when he thought about his gold-pinnacle [Armored Titan Bear] , it would be pretty good if he could defeat a low-tier platinum mountain giant. If the entire platinum high-tier monster were to come, he would probably be beaten into a pancake.
He thus chose three or a hundred times the points reward.
In that case, after defeating the mountain giant, he would be able to obtain 50,000 points. Regardless of whether it was the materials for the Armored Bear to evolve or the Certification of the Mystic Realm of Earth, he would be able to obtain all of them.
Fang Yuan thought that with the hundred times enhanced system, it would be enough to complete a B-grade mission.
Nevertheless, he had to challenge the limits of a trainer. Not only did he have to rely on his pet, but he also had to rely on his commanding experience. This cross-level challenge was the biggest test for him.
The Mountain Giant was resting in a cave at the top of the mountain. It was a pet that did not compete with the rest of the world, but its strength could never be underestimated. According to the records on the scroll, the giant’s catapult could cause an earthquake special effect. Of course, it was not the kind of earthquake that would cause a house to collapse. Instead, it would stun the target for a period of time and cause the target to lose balance for a long period of time, thereby reducing the combat power by 50% .
Alright, it should start now.
Fang Yuan summoned the Titan Bear, which had just woken up and appeared to be full of energy. It patted its chest as if it was invincible
The Mountain Giant was sleeping in the cave in front of it, as long as...
“Titan Bear, use Roar.”
This was a standard taunt skill.
Sure enough, after the Armored Bear growled at the cave, there was a huge commotion.
