God of Pets Chapter 871: The Dragon Enters the Sea

Chen Guan contemplated, deciding first to find a sacrificial lamb for his experiment.

He then refined his Secret Law, altering it to state: "Any creature that has its head touched by my palm will have its presence erased to nothingness in the eyes of others, rendering it completely unnoticed."

After this modification, Chen Guan departed the ring space, exited Ji Family city, and journeyed to the Tear Luo Desert. There, he placed a pat upon the head of a sand scorpion.

Chen Guan himself perceived no change in the sand scorpion, so he proceeded to summon his Secret Spirit Pets, intending to verify if they could detect it.

Warring States, Ghost Eye, and Rouge, among his other Secret Spirits, were utterly incapable of perceiving the sand scorpion's existence; they simply could not find it.

Neither Warring States' acute olfactory senses nor Ghost Eye's special pupil technique proved effective; neither could detect the sand scorpion.

Chen Guan felt immense joy, exclaiming, "In that case, can't I transform all my pets into beings of low presence, effectively granting them an invisibility buff? In the future, ambushing high-level Secret Spirits will be a simple matter, won't it?"

However, when Chen Guan summoned Ming Fei, Ming Fei spotted the low-presence sand scorpion with ease.

This realization dawned on Chen Guan: low presence was not an invincible ability, and ultimately, certain powers could indeed counter it.

Following numerous trials, Chen Guan discovered that his particular Secret Law was not permanent and only held sway for a limited duration.

The length of this effect was contingent upon the amount of Primordial Energy Chen Guan expended when employing the Secret Law; the greater the Primordial Energy consumed, the lower the presence of the creature patted, and the longer the effect would persist.

Among his own pets, only Ming Fei and the Paperman were capable of bypassing the low presence ability, remaining entirely unaffected.

Chen Guan then captured a Sixth Sense Secret Spirit, a "little grass elf," bringing it within his ring space before entering a cave.

Observing through the telescope, he noted that the creature on duty that day was the large-headed doll.

Chen Guan delicately activated the switch adjacent to the telescope, revealing a concealed opening leading outside the cave.

Outside, various Heavenly and Earthly Treasures obscured the view, making it appear as if nothing was present.

He directly propelled the little grass elf through the opening and immediately re-secured the switch.

Even if this entity were discovered, he reasoned, it would be exceedingly difficult for those individuals to ascertain its point of origin.

Despite its name, the grass elf resembled a puppet more than a plant; this puppet was adorned in green bark for attire, sported leaves as hair, and possessed limbs made of branches, giving it a rather unappealing appearance.

The Sixth Sense little grass elf lacked formidable combat prowess; its skills were primarily of an auxiliary nature.

After releasing it, Chen Guan had intended to utilize the little grass elf to ascertain if it would be detected by those outside.

But the moment the little grass elf emerged, its body commenced to rapidly expand.

"Oh no!" Chen Guan had not anticipated the little grass elf's extreme sensitivity to Primordial Energy.

Having just exited, upon exposure to the outside's swirling, mist-like Primordial Energy, its form began to undergo radical transformations.

Its entire foliage spread outwards, drawing a substantial quantity of Primordial Energy into its being.

In a mere instant, the little grass elf's body enlarged by a full size, and it even directly advanced a cultivation level.

The surge of Primordial Energy here created a significant disturbance, yet the large-headed doll nearby remained utterly oblivious, its gaze fixed solely upon the Jade Solitary Sword.

Chen Guan was ecstatic: "Even such a massive disturbance fails to attract his notice; it appears my Secret Law is functioning perfectly."

The little grass elf, seemingly transported from perdition to paradise, drifted skyward, carried by the clouds and mists, ceaselessly absorbing the pure Primordial Energy to facilitate its own evolution.

Before long, the little grass elf had actually reached the peak of the Sixth Awakening and was initiating its Seventh Awakening.

"Awakening a Secret Law with such a significant commotion... it's hard not to be discovered..." Chen Guan found himself growing anxious once more.

To his astonishment, even the Awakening of the Secret Law, accompanied by such a substantial disturbance, did not elicit so much as a second glance from the large-headed doll.

The Secret Law Chen Guan had modified proved to be far more potent than he had initially surmised.

Aside from beings possessing unique abilities, such as Ming Fei and the Paperman, ordinary creatures were indeed unable to detect those concealed by the Secret Law.

Chen Guan dared not let his guard down, permitting the little grass elf to rapidly grow by absorbing the ambient Primordial Energy outside, while he awaited the scheduled shift change among the four guards.

The Secret Law he had applied to the little grass elf was sufficiently potent and was expected to endure until all four individuals had completed their respective shifts.

Chen Guan observed as individuals arrived sequentially, none of them perceiving the small grass elf; it was only when a woman, on duty, took her turn that Chen Guan became utterly convinced these people were incapable of seeing the little grass elf.

This realization brought a profound sense of relief to Chen Guan.

Nevertheless, he harbored no immediate intention of venturing out himself; he summoned Xiao Bai, and after a brief discussion, Xiao Bai consented to a sortie outside to procure some liquid Primordial Energy for him.

Chen Guan applied a secret law to Xiao Bai, enabling its egress through a crevice, directing its path towards the pool where the woman was situated.

Chen Guan watched Xiao Bai with bated breath; Xiao Bai had already absorbed the Primordial Energy within the cave, thus it did not exhibit the same initial excitement as the little grass elf upon encountering the external Primordial Energy.

It descended into the pool, indifferent to the woman bathing within, gathered a quantity of liquid Primordial Energy, and ascended directly upwards.

Noticing the disturbance in the pool, Chen Guan's brow furrowed with anxiety, but fortunately, the woman remained oblivious, continuing her soak in the liquid Primordial Energy while gazing intently at the Jade Solitary Sword.

Xiao Bai, laden with liquid Primordial Energy, made its return flight, contorting itself to slip back through the gap.

Its form was malleable, capable of reshaping at will, a feat that would present a considerable challenge for ordinary pets attempting such a maneuver.

"Quickly now, transfer the liquid Primordial Energy you've gathered to me," Chen Guan urged.

Xiao Bai positioned itself above Chen Guan's head, and the liquid Primordial Energy within cascaded down like a gentle rain.

Chen Guan swiftly employed the Secret Technique of One, absorbing all the liquid Primordial Energy into his own body, and indeed, he felt a distinct transformation, with a substantial increase in the Primordial Energy circulating within him.

Under Xiao Bai's supervision, Chen Guan commenced his cultivation, allowing Xiao Bai to continuously drip liquid Primordial Energy onto him.

Once the entirety of the liquid Primordial Energy within Xiao Bai was depleted, Chen Guan once again invoked the secret law, dispatching it on another mission to acquire more.

This cycle persisted for over a month, during which Chen Guan, whose cultivation level had long been static, finally managed to advance by a single level.

However, this pace of advancement was still insufficient to meet Chen Guan's burgeoning needs.

He required resources not only for his own cultivation but also for the Secret Realm. Procuring liquid Primordial Energy solely through Xiao Bai's efforts proved inadequate to sustain his requirements.

All the liquid Primordial Energy that Xiao Bai had retrieved during this interim was consumed by Chen Guan for his personal upgrades, resulting in the Secret Realm receiving no energy infusion and consequently remaining at its prior diminutive size.

"An immeasurable wealth of Primordial Energy exists beyond these confines, and given that those four cannot detect the Secret Spirits fortified by my secret law, they will undoubtedly fail to detect me as well. It is far more efficient to directly absorb Primordial Energy from the outside world than to endure this convoluted process." With this thought solidifying, Chen Guan reached a decision.

He directly applied the secret law to his own person, a light pat to his head signaling the commencement, then proceeded to dismantle the telescope and egress through the aperture, meticulously restoring it to its original condition afterward.

Chen Guan ascended cautiously into the sky, noting with a settled heart that the on-duty large-headed doll of the day paid him no heed.

The ambient Primordial Energy in the outside world was even more abundant than that found within the cave; no wonder the little grass elf had erupted into such a frenzy of upgrades the moment it emerged.

Chen Guan was unleashed, akin to a dragon entering the vast ocean or a tiger descending upon a flock of sheep, utterly unrestrained as he absorbed the Primordial Energy permeating the heavens and earth, all while soaring towards the mountain peak that housed the pool.
