God of Pets Chapter 884: Mission Accomplished
Previously on God of Pets...
Boom!
After a violent shake, a crack appeared at the top of the protective shield, and blood-colored primordial energy as thick as molten rock surged into the void, dyeing it in blood red.
The blood-colored primordial energy lingered for a long time, and everyone from the Jiang Family looked on in shock.
The power generated from the fight between the two exceeded the limit of the protective shield’s capacity, piercing right through it.
The many powerful figures of the Jiang Family were ready to intercept the spreading shockwaves to prevent them from impacting the Jiang Family’s properties.
But before they could act, they realized that the primordial energy only surged into the void and did not affect anything below.
All their eyes were fixed on the arena, eager to know the outcome of the battle.
Yet, the blood-colored primordial energy within the arena continued to erupt like a volcanic explosion for a long time, and only after waiting a while did it gradually weaken.
When the gushing blood-colored primordial energy was exhausted, the situation within the arena slowly became clear.
The originally elevated battle platform, ten meters above the ground, had now turned into a large pit several tens of meters deep.
In the pit, Chen Guan and Jiang Qiemo stood face to face, just as they did when they first stepped onto the battle platform.
The difference was that Chen Guan still maintained the state of One Thought Ghost God Third Rank, resembling a blood-colored ghost god.
However, Jiang Qiemo had no trace of blood color left on him and had returned to a normal state.
"I lost. My primordial energy ultimately couldn’t keep up with your energy recovery speed," Jiang Qiemo admitted calmly.
The Jiang Family members felt dissatisfied, yet they could only accept this result.
However, they did not believe that Jiang Qiemo truly lost. In their view, Jiang Qiemo merely couldn’t match Chen Guan in energy recovery speed.
Furthermore, Jiang Qiemo had self-imposed restrictions, not using his hidden power, so it couldn’t be considered a true defeat.
This result was something the Jiang Family could still accept.
Imagine if One Thought Ghost God was paired with the full power of the hidden reserve, how strong Jiang Qiemo would become was simply immeasurable.
"Let’s call it a day," Chen Guan approached and supported Jiang Qiemo, helping him out of the deep pit.
Jiang Qiemo indeed was depleted, but there was really no other way, the difference in total primordial energy between him and Chen Guan was too vast.
The Jiang Family members saw that Jiang Qiemo was unharmed, only overextended, and knew that Chen Guan must have controlled the strength and direction of his primordial energy; otherwise, Jiang Qiemo would not be left unscathed, and the energy wouldn’t just surge upward.
After this battle, Chen Guan’s treatment within the Jiang Family changed quietly.
The attitude of the Jiang Family towards him was entirely different from before.
Previously, the Jiang Family treated him well but only as a young generation standard reception, whereas now, he was treated with the standards of a Celestial King.
The Jiang Family had reached a consensus to bet on Chen Guan, hoping to cultivate a strong partner in the future.
Chen Guan initially thought that by defeating Jiang Qiemo in this battle, he might embarrass the Jiang Family, making them less likely to cast their vote for Xiu Jie Ming.
Who knew the Jiang Family not only upgraded his treatment, but the Family Head also soon personally met with him, reaching a preliminary cooperation agreement, with the specific cooperation details needing Xiu Jie Ming to send someone over to discuss further.
Chen Guan completed his task smoothly, and during this battle, he remembered something very important.
The Secret Skill "Life-Sacrifice Sword-Drawing Technique" had once fallen into Jiang Qiemo’s hands.
He had been keeping an eye out for similar secret skills, but had not found suitable substitutes.
Over time, he had given up much hope.
This time, seeing Jiang Qiemo use the Pure White Sword, he was reminded of that matter again.
His total amount of primordial energy was astonishing, but precisely because it was too vast, he had no way to use it freely.
If primordial energy is seen as a swimming pool, then a secret skill is the faucet installed on it.
No matter how much primordial energy there is, the flow from the faucet is only so much, and the amount that can be let out in a short time is limited, no matter the total amount.
For most cultivators, a secret skill like the Pure Yang Sword Immortal would feel too energy-consuming, as opening it would drain their pool completely.
However, no matter how Chen Guan opened it, he could not drain it, and he even found the flow too small, hoping for a larger-flow faucet.
Undoubtedly, the Life-Sacrifice Sword-Drawing Technique was no longer considered a faucet, it should be compared to a floodgate of a dam.
If he could obtain the Life-Sacrifice Sword-Drawing Technique, only then could Chen Guan utilize his vast primordial energy to its fullest potential.
Unfortunately, the Life-Sacrifice Technique Swordsmanship was a unique secret skill, with no second one to be found in the world, and Chen Guan could not find a substitute.
"Since I can’t find a substitute, perhaps I can try to create one myself," Chen Guan planned to use the Empty Leaf upon returning home, to see if he could conjure up a Life-Sacrifice Sword-Drawing Technique.
Chen Guan did not want to wait a moment longer, immediately setting to work on creating the Life-Sacrifice Sword-Drawing Technique upon returning.
However, reality was not so kind, as he initially thought it might be easy to use the Empty Leaf to generate a secret skill.
Even if he couldn’t perfectly recreate the Life-Sacrifice Sword-Drawing Technique, producing something similar should be good enough.
It turned out, trying to create a replica or substitute of a unique secret skill was not easy.
Chen Guan kept using the Empty Leaf daily to generate secret skill cores, while he produced many, none had the same effect as the Life-Sacrifice Sword-Drawing Technique.
"Could it be that the unique prefix characteristic can affect the function of the Empty Leaf?" Chen Guan was forced to consider this possibility.
After trying for several days, Chen Guan thought that this path might be hard to continue.
He wasn’t the type to insist on one track. Since this path was unfeasible, Chen Guan turned his thoughts to another route.
Since he couldn’t recreate the Life-Sacrifice Sword-Drawing Technique, he could completely achieve its effects through Composite Primordial Energy Skills techniques and methods.
Even if the effects weren’t as potent, as long as it worked somewhat, it would suffice.
Chen Guan carefully reviewed the Composite Skill formula given by Chen Xinghe to see if there was a ready-made formula he could use.
If there wasn’t a ready-made formula, he would have to study and develop one himself according to Chen Xinghe’s teachings.
But doing so would require a lot of time and effort for research.
Fortunately, Chen Guan wasn’t in a rush to level up recently. He was at level 80, just a step away from the Ninth Awakening.
He wasn’t in a hurry to reach the Ninth Awakening because this last secret collection would encompass the essence and general principles of his past cultivation, requiring him to carefully review and consolidate what he had learned and achieved before.
After meticulously researching all the formulas, Chen Guan truly found a Composite Skill formula similar to the Life-Sacrifice Sword-Drawing Technique.
Unexpectedly, the Composite Skill named "Heavenly Demon Disintegration Technique" by Chen Xinghe could meet Chen Guan’s requirements.
