Divine Beast Adventures - Chapter 481: At Wit’s End. Entering One by One

Edited by Aelryinth

To see a mountain of treasures right before your eyes, but be unable to pocket them… One could imagine how upset Zhang Che was feeling right now!

Unresigned to this, Zhang Che ordered the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon to shake off the countless animals and fly to a few other mountain peaks to investigate. The results were the same, however.

No matter where he went, the vegetation was easily cut. However, it was like the soil had a layer of restrictions set up. Whatever method he tried, he was unable to leave a mark on the ground.

“Right, a restriction!” Zhang Che’s eyes lit up. He finally thought of the crux of the matter.

When Mercury was invaded by the demonic army, wasn’t there a restriction in place in the spatial tunnels, forbidding the powerful demons from entering? It led to the invasion having a strong start but weak finish, and the war ending quickly.

These secret planes definitely had links to Mercury. It no longer seemed strange for Zhang Che to come across a restriction here.

However, unlike the restriction he came across on Mercury, the restriction in this secret world only prevented people from digging out the spiritual herbs growing here, like the owner of a garden putting up a fence.

Although the two were very different, the logic behind it was similar!

However, this world was empty. The owner was nowhere to be found, but the restriction was still in effect.

Looking all around him, the only thing that wasn’t natural in this floating mountain range was the huge platform. If there was a way to break the restriction, it had to be there.

However, Zhang Che had no way to deal with the puppet-animals on the platform. Even the scarlet and white sword was unable to kill them. What else could he do?

……

Zhang Che was all out of ideas. Not only that, he was trapped in this floating mountain range, unable to leave. Although there was plenty of food in his spatial storage and he wouldn’t starve to death, did he have to stay here just like this and wait for the secret plane gateway to open again and send him out?

If that was really the case, Zhang Che would really want to cry, but no tears would come out.

Let alone wasting his time, he wouldn’t gain anything here. It was simply too embarrassing.

——

Ever since Zhang Che slew the high-tier epic-quality exotic beast with two slashes in an incredibly flashy manner and entering the secret plane gateway within an hour, it was like the mid-tier beastmasters participating in this event were stimulated, every one of them increasing their pace.

Not only that, many beastmasters who were confident in their strength directly summoned out their flying mounts and flew towards the core area.

However, those beastmasters had obviously underestimated Zhang Che too much, and overestimated themselves, thinking there was no reason they couldn’t do what Zhang Che did. In the end, it resulted in tragedy.

Although there weren’t many epic-quality exotic beasts in the area, not to mention that Zhang Che had slain one himself, the number of legend and dark gold-quality exotic beasts here wasn’t low.

It was possible to avoid some of them if everyone had pushed forward carefully, or by gathering their strength together, they could launch a sudden attack and kill some of the powerful exotic beasts who were by themselves.

However, with the beastmasters flying on their mounts and charging straight through in a hurry, weren’t they acting like living target practice for the powerful exotic beasts below them?

Seeing those mediocre fellows actually dared to provoke them, the powerful exotic beasts below didn’t act nice like obedient kids, as they had when Zhang Che flew by. That had only been because the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s aura was too terrifying; they could only endure and not act up!

Now that these weaklings who had very few legend-quality subdued beasts dared to disregard the exotic beasts, they were immediately annoyed.

For a period of time, powerful silhouettes would jump out from the mountain forests below here and there and drag the unprepared beastmasters and their subdued beasts down from the sky. What awaited them was the nightmare of ending up inside the stomachs of exotic beasts.

Seeing this, the people from the various factions furrowed their brows one after another, then quickly sent orders to the remaining beastmasters via their personal terminal to stop them from acting in such a suicidal manner!

In fact, after some of the beastmasters were ambushed by the powerful exotic beasts, many others had reacted. Although they were still pushing forward quickly, they were moving much slower than before, not daring to act so arrogantly again.

There weren’t too many powerful exotic beasts in this area, after all. Although many beastmasters had unfortunately died to ambushes, some of the lucky ones had narrowly escaped and quickly crossed the thousand kilometers, arriving at the enormous purple spatial gateway.

When they drew close, they finally felt exactly how majestic the hundred-meters-tall purple gateway was. Even the strongest beastmasters among them could feel how tiny they were.

Of course, the beastmasters were here to enter the secret plane. All of them were thinking of snatching resources, and none of them were in the mood to lament. Every single one of them directly crossed the spatial gateway without a word.

Less than five hours after Zhang Che entered the spatial gateway, batch after batch of beastmasters started arriving at the purple gateway, and entering the secret plane.

If Zhang Che was here, he would have been a little surprised at how courageous they were. They actually dared to take such great risks and directly flew on their mounts to the gateway. Every one of them was really daring!

However, without courage, it really was impossible to become strong.

Although the beastmasters chosen by the various factions to enter the secret plane weren’t very strong, that was only relative to those standing at the very top. To ordinary beastmasters, these people were considered the elites of their generation. If they were lucky enough and didn’t meet their ends while developing, it shouldn’t be a problem for them to become high-tier beastmasters.

Very soon, faint purple light flashed one after another in the secret plane. Figures started forming out of thin air in secret world. Some appeared on land, some appeared on the islands floating on the sea, some appeared in the skies, and some even directly appeared on the floating mountains.

Without exception, everyone’s reaction was similar to Zhang Che’s when they saw the world in here.

The floating mountains high up in the sky truly had too strong of an impact!

How did those mountains, big and small alike, float in the sky?

No one knew the answer to this question.

That wasn’t important, however. Everyone was clear that since this secret plane was so mysterious, treasures must be aplenty!

As such, the beastmasters who entered first were in no hurry to think of a way to contact their companions. Instead, they quickly flew to the nearest floating mountain.

Everyone had the same idea. Since those mountains were floating in the sky, the treasures, if any, should be hidden on those floating mountains, right?

As for the many islands below, no one was interested in them at all, and they were directly ignored by the beastmasters.
