God of Pets Chapter 875: Inquiry

Chen Guan watched from the side, but felt something was amiss.

Not to mention, the fact that the Golden War God can physically cross the chaos space into the Immortal Mountain Sect is a powerful ability in itself.

Moreover, the casual shot by the Golden War God earlier isn’t something a normal Secret Spirit could achieve.

In Chen Guan’s view, the Golden War God’s strength definitely surpasses that of humans.

Yet he is so underwhelming, getting instantly killed by the four members of the Immortal Mountain Sect in one strike, without anything impressive to show.

The four members of the Immortal Mountain Sect even said that if they had known the Golden War God was so ordinary, they wouldn’t have needed to join forces to defeat him.

Chen Guan felt that the Golden War God wasn’t as incapable as the four members of the Immortal Mountain Sect claimed, but the actual battle results proved otherwise, forcing him to consider another possibility.

"Is there a possibility that the four members of Kao Mountain aren’t as weak as they think?" Chen Guan wondered to himself.

But if the four aren’t that weak, there’s a contradiction: their master said human power is weak compared to the Sky Secret Spirit, and their master was easily killed by Yu Guzi, so much so that the entire Immortal Mountain Sect was nearly wiped out.

This seemingly confirms that the Secret Spirits are as their master said, very strong, far stronger than the people of the Immortal Mountain Sect.

There are layers of contradictions here, and Chen Guan can’t deduce where the problem lies.

However, Chen Guan believes that the four of the Immortal Mountain Sect, having been cultivating in liquid elemental energy for years, couldn’t possibly be weak.

"Figuring this out is actually quite simple; just understanding the level of the Golden War God will reveal the level at which the four of the Immortal Mountain Sect stand." The reason Chen Guan wants to determine the true level of the Golden War God and the four of the Immortal Mountain Sect is because he is about to deplete the foundation of the Immortal Mountain Sect, and after the Ninth Awakening, the next upgrade will require venturing into the true Celestial Secret Realm.

If he doesn’t understand the true power of the Secret Spirits in the Celestial Secret Realm, how can he enter?

Currently, Chen Guan’s understanding of the Celestial Secret Realm is troubled by conflicting information, preventing him from making accurate judgments.

The Grand Saint said the Secret Spirits of the Celestial Secret Realm only reach the Tenth Awakening, while Kao Mountain’s master said they reach the Twelfth Awakening.

Chen Guan finds it difficult to discern who speaks the truth.

It could be that both are true, and the Grand Saint hasn’t been to the Celestial Secret Realm, so doesn’t know there are higher-level Secret Spirits.

Theoretically, the information from the Immortal Mountain Sect in the Celestial Secret Realm should be more credible.

But Chen Guan feels something is off, so he must verify for himself.

Investigating the identity of the Golden War God is difficult for others, but not so for Chen Guan.

Chief Judge Qi’s twice using his ability to call him gave Chen Guan some inspiration.

Chen Guan first left the Immortal Mountain Sect, returned to the Book Hall, and modified his Secret Law.

"Speak the name of a Secret Spirit to access the pertinent information of that Secret Spirit."

After completing the modification, Chen Guan directly mentioned the Golden War God’s information.

Soon, a large amount of primordial energy was extracted from Chen Guan’s body, and a line of ethereal glowing text appeared before his eyes.

Golden War God (Sky Secret God): Level 99 (Tenth Awakening).

Checking the Golden War God’s information consumed a lot of Chen Guan’s primordial energy; normal human cultivators don’t have that much energy to spare.

However, the information obtained couldn’t satisfy Chen Guan, only the Golden War God’s quality, level, and number of awakenings were revealed.

It is now certain that the Golden War God is indeed only at the Tenth Awakening, and hasn’t reached its peak.

Theoretically, the peak of the Tenth Awakening should be Level 100, and the Golden War God is clearly one level short.

The current issue is, Chen Guan cannot confirm the highest level of the Sky Secret Spirits; perhaps Level 100 is their limit.

Chen Guan tried repeatedly using the Secret Law to obtain more information about the Golden War God, but despite consuming lots of primordial energy, the information remained the same.

"Could there be a problem with my Secret Law, that only basic information can be obtained? Or does the Golden War God’s level affect the application of the Secret Law?" Chen Guan thought, and mentioned the name Ghost Eye.

The result showed text before him, merely "Ghost Eye (Secret God): Level 80 (Eighth Awakening)."

"So it’s the Secret Law itself that’s problematic, it can only extract such information." Chen Guan identified the issue, and after testing several times, the results were consistent.

Only the energy consumption varied, requiring a moderate amount for checking low-level Secret Spirits, accessible to ordinary Seventh or Eighth Awakening cultivators.

However, checking information like Ghost Eye used energy beyond typical cultivators’ provision; without enhancements to the upper limit, a Ninth Awakening cultivator’s primordial energy wouldn’t be sufficient.

Examining the Golden War God consumed even more energy; even cultivators who had improved their energy limit post-acquisition might struggle with such consumption.

"Now that I know the Golden War God’s level, I only need to learn the level of a top-tier Sky Secret Spirit to understand the strength of the Sky Secret Spirits versus the Immortal Mountain Sect’s four." Chen Guan thought about whether his knowledge base contained names of top-tier Sky Secret Spirits.

After much reflection, Chen Guan realized he might not know any top-tier Sky Secret Spirit names, but they seemed limited to two: Yu Guzi and Spirit Devouring God.

Yet, Chen Guan couldn’t ascertain whether these count as top-tier Secret Spirits of the Celestial Secret Realm.

Spirit Devouring God is indeed strong, but would a top-tier Secret Spirit personally guard the entry to the Sky Secret Spirits?

"Comparatively, Yu Guzi seems more likely; he single-handedly eradicated the Immortal Mountain Sect, even if not a top-tier Sky Secret Spirit, he certainly isn’t a typical Spirit." Chen Guan speculated and activated the Secret Law, mentioning Yu Guzi’s name.

Chen Guan felt concerned that Yu Guzi might not be the full name of that Secret Spirit.

Using the Secret Law requires a real full name; if Yu Guzi is merely a nickname given by the Immortal Mountain Sect, his information can’t be accessed.

Fortunately, as Chen Guan searched, letters appeared before his eyes.

Yu Guzi (Sky Secret God): Level 100 (Tenth Awakening).

"Wait... Level 100... the Yu Guzi who destroyed the Immortal Mountain Sect is only Tenth Awakening Level 100... just one level higher than the Golden War God..." Chen Guan realized the issue.

Even if Yu Guzi isn’t the most top-tier Sky Secret Spirit, it’s able to obliterate the Immortal Mountain Sect, while the four from Kao Mountain can easily suppress the Golden War God.

"Is the difference between Level 100 and Level 99 really that significant, or have the strength of Kao Mountain’s four far surpassed the original Immortal Mountain Sect?" Chen Guan’s eyes fluctuated unpredictably.
