Chapter 177: Challenge the Peak Realm

After entering the halo, Fang Yuan and the Shadow Wolf came to a magical world.

This place was not like the world below. It was just a bare arena and an boundless sky.

The birds were singing sang and the flowers were fragrant, the sky was blue. It was like heaven.

“Is this… an illusion?” Fang Yuan looked at his hand and said to Shadow Wolf, “Use Howling.”

The howling of Shadow Wolf not only had a certain probability of scaring off the enemy, it also had the effect of breaking the illusion.

However, other than the birds that were startled and flew around, the scene did not change at all.

“Impolite brat.” A man who was sitting on a bull and holding a flute appeared in front of Fang Yuan. “What are you screaming here?”

Fang Yuan could feel a strong mental power from him. Now, Fang Yuan could feel the mental power fluctuation without waiting for the man to summon his pet beast.

“Are you… a human trainer?” Fang Yuan asked curiously.

In the tower of Heavenly Secret Pavilion, every soul bound by the tower would attack the challenger at the first moment.

However, the man in front of him was indifferent, which surprised Fang Yuan.

“I’m not a human, nor am I a trainer.” The man got off the back of the bull and asked Fang Yuan, “How did you come to this arcane realm?”

“I’m here to challenge the 90th level of Heavenly Secret Pavilion.”

“Heavenly Secret Pavilion?” The man looked puzzled, as if he had never heard of it.

“Then can you tell me who you actually are?”

“I am the guardian of this arcane realm.”

After Fang Yuan’s reminder, he seemed to remember something… holding his head…

“Human?”

“Ever since 30,000 years ago God told me to wait here, I have forgotten my mission,” he said calmly after a splitting headache.

“Are you the challenger? I have been waiting for you for 30,000 years.”

Fang Yuan smiled. “Why? Are you a little disappointed to see me?”

“No, I’m not disappointed. Whether it’s humans, demons, or even gods.” He calmly walked over, “As long as I complete my mission, I can go and rest. In order to wait for you, I’ve already built this world into a paradise during these long 30,000 years. Isn’t it ironic?”

“How can that be?” Fang Yuan smiled. “From this point, I admire you very much.”

From his words and actions, Fang Yuan could feel a peaceful aura.

Just like those arcane realm guardians he met when he accepted the arcane realm’s certification, the aura was calm and peaceful.

However, Fang Yuan could also feel the differences between them.

The man in front of him, his mental power had definitely surpassed any of his previous opponents.

A legendary grade trainer!

That was a grade that did not have any levels.

As long as one surpassed the peak of the king grade, they were all legendary.

Even legendary had a difference in strength.

Moreover, he was the guardian of the 90th level of Heavenly Secret Pavilion. According to the Elder of the pavilion, he was the ultimate boss of this tower.

Compared to any opponent he had met before, he was only strong and not weak!

“Human, you can start your attack now. You can use any method you think of,” he said with a smile.

“Can I take a look at your pet beast?” Fang Yuan saw him standing in the same place, not knowing what to do.

“What you see with your naked eyes are all my pet beasts.”

???

When Fang Yuan didn’t understand what he meant, a crack appeared on the ground. Then, Fang Yuan and he were pulled into the alternate dimension.

“Is this the way the demons fight?” Fang Yuan recalled the learnings he received when he was trained by the demons.

“No, it’s not the demons,” The guardian said. “I’m different from the demons. The demons use the power of space, and my power is time.”

“At your current level, I don’t think you can understand it. Your level is too low, and it’s impossible for you to defeat me. In order to make the game a little more fun, I want me to stimulate your potential.”

“Really?” Fang Yuan was also curious about his strength.

“Yes. However, human, I won’t show mercy, but I can play with you for a while within the limits of my rules.”

“Human, make your move.” The guardian still did not summon any pet beast, but he was in an attacking posture.

Fang Yuan, not showing any politeness, summoned the Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox.

“Ah Li, attack the man in front of you with all your strength. Don’t worry about the energy consumption.”

Ah Li received the order and immediately transformed into the Spirit Fox state. It gathered the nine types of energy and formed a unique energy ball.

Then, it shot at the man in the distance at an extremely fast speed.

As long as it hit the guardian, Fang Yuan believed that he would at least be seriously injured.

“Too slow,” the guardian said without changing his expression. At that instant, a pair of black hands appeared out of nowhere and held the energy ball.

There was no explosion, nor was there any energy fluctuation,

The energy ball disappeared into thin air.

“It’s my turn.” The guardian smiled slightly.

The pair of hands that came out of the alternate dimension clenched their fists and waved at Ah Li.

However, he did not succeed. Instead, he hit a mountain.

No, he only hit the mountain-like, tall and hard Lutania.

Lutania coughed up a mouthful of blood. He smiled at Fang Yuan and said, “How did you get yourself into trouble with an opponent of this level again?”

“But it looks like you’re also very happy.” Fang Yuan smiled.

“I might have been influenced by you, you little brat.” As Ludania spoke, he threw Fang Yuan and Shadow Wolf onto himself so that it would be easier for him to protect them.

“Lutania, you might hurt your human friends,” the guardian said to Lutania. He was telling his opponent that he would not attack humans.

“It’s okay,” Fang Yuan replied. “I’m their trainer. Of course, I have to fight alongside them.”

Shadow Wolf also howled.

At this moment, the Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox also jumped onto Lutania’s body.

Although it could not speak, Fang Yuan could see the meaning in its eyes.

“Fight side by side until death.”

“Good. I admire you a little.” The guardian smiled. “Then I’ll let you see my pet beast’s true body.”

Fang Yuan already had a complete pet atlas. When the pet walked out of the alternate dimension, he was stunned.

That was…

The spirit body known as Gaia, which was also the god who controlled time mentioned in the history books.

He had thought that it was just a legend.

No, this legendary pet was really a legend.

“Human, are you ready?”

“Of course.” This was the first time Fang Yuan had seen a legendary pet. Apart from fear, there was actually a trace of joy in his heart.

To be able to see a legend was in itself a lucky thing.

This battle was earth-shattering.
