God of Pets

Yang Hu nodded, once again summoning an unparalleled pet, pouncing towards Chen Guan.

But this time, after dodging the Ghost Eye's onslaught, the unparalleled pet that rushed to Chen Guan was once again slain by Chen Guan's two strikes of the Evil Asura Saber.

"Continue." Fu Tianji said expressionlessly.

After another unparalleled pet was slain by Chen Guan with the Evil Asura Saber, Fu Tianji frowned slightly and said once more, "Continue."

Yang Hu had no choice but to summon another unparalleled pet to attack Chen Guan.

That unparalleled pet, after barely breaking through the Ghost-Eyed Python's obstruction, was slain by just one strike upon reaching Chen Guan.

The unparalleled pet had exhausted all means just to break through the Ghost-Eyed Python's obstruction.

Chen Guan seized this opportunity gap when its old strength faded and new strength had not yet arisen, slaying it in one strike, thanks to his ability to seize opportunities due to the Martial Arts Rhythm.

Ordinary unparalleled pets can't withstand the destructive power of the Evil Asura Saber; one strike to the vital spot is enough for a kill.

"He must have some sort of means to recover primordial energy, use the Phecda," Fu Tianji said after a brief contemplation.

Phecda is a World-Defying Secret Spirit of the Great Cave Heaven, needing special methods to degrade it to the level of a Blessed Land to be used by Second Awakening Cultivators.

Even as unparalleled pets, Phecda's abilities are much stronger than those of the same level from Blessed Lands.

Yang Hu nodded, summoning Phecda to attack Chen Guan.

Phecda is a type of Immortal Soldier, clad in Secret Treasure Armor, with a Secret Treasure Long Sword at its waist. Just this gear alone far surpasses other Secret Spirits of the same level.

This Phecda even possessed a Body Technique Secret Skill, and with just a flicker, it bypassed the Ghost-Eyed Python, reaching Chen Guan skillfully and swiftly, without any excess movement.

Chen Guan slashed with one Evil Asura Saber, Phecda drew its sword to strike, and the Secret Treasure Long Sword forcibly shattered the Sword Energy of the Evil Asura Saber.

Phecda, under the blessing of the Three Auspicious Lights, had terrifyingly strong combat power.

Phecda's sword momentum was like a rainbow, attacking Chen Guan again, with three feet of Sword Aura flashing from the sword tip, able to cut gold and jade and break through anything.

Phecda was not only remarkable in power and destructiveness, it also fought not by instincts but with high intelligence, Body Technique, and swordsmanship skills, comparable to a top-tier human sword master.

"What a wonderful pet!" Chen Guan marveled inwardly. Such pets are not uncommon in the Great Cave Heaven.

However, in the Blessed Lands, they are quite rare.

Chen Guan also wanted to get an Immortal Soldier as a pet, but unfortunately, the cost was too high.

Phecda itself is valuable, and to degrade it to the first level requires an even greater cost.

Even if Chen Guan had the money to buy Phecda, he wouldn't have the money to degrade it to the first level.

As Phecda attacked, Chen Guan's Body Technique activated, initiating the One-Night Step, and forcibly matched Phecda's Body Technique with sheer speed, seizing the moment its rhythm was disrupted, the Evil Asura Saber struck once again, slashing at Phecda in a hair's breadth moment.

Phecda was slashed back several steps but did not fall.

The armor on its body blocked this strike of the Evil Asura Saber, with a noticeable saber scar on the chest armor, but it was not cut through.

"Phecda is so comprehensive, its Secret Treasure Armor can even withstand the Evil Asura Saber, and can be directly used as a tank pet." Chen Guan sighed again inwardly.

No wonder so many big shots reduce Immortal Soldiers to the first level for their favored descendants, indeed far more useful than ordinary unparalleled pets.

Fu Tianji saw this, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Yang Hu exclaimed excitedly: "He used those extremely energy-consuming Body Technique Secret Skills, as well as Sword Energy, with such a primordial energy consumption rate, even with energy-recovery abilities, he shouldn't be keeping up with the consumption."

Fu Tianji also thought so, Chen Guan being able to use both Sword Energy and those extremely energy-consuming Body Techniques at this time already surprised him.

In such a situation, even if it were Fu Tianji, he wouldn't have primordial energy available to use, at least the recovered primordial energy should be hard to reach the level needed for using those highly energy-consuming secret techniques.

Phecda struck again like a ghost, bypassing the Ghost-Eyed Python's attack with a flash, wielding its sword with Immortal Sword Aura, and in an instant, slashed towards Chen Guan.

Yang Hu thought Chen Guan had no chance of blocking this time, but Fu Tianji saw Chen Guan's calm eyes and couldn't help but frown.

Buzz!

Chen Guan took a step forward, with his body tearing through the air's pressure, evading Phecda's Sword Aura at an incredible speed, while his hands came together, instantly merging black and white Sword Energies into one gray Sword Energy that flashed past Phecda's waist.

Phecda's highly defensible armor was forcibly cut open by the gray Sword Energy, its body was sliced in half at the waist.

Boom!

The bisected corpse of Phecda fell to the ground, dead on the spot.

Fu Tianji squinted his eyes, staring intently at Chen Guan.

Yang Hu was full of disbelief, exclaimed in horror, "Impossible... how can he still have primordial energy to use those secret skills... and the one used this time... clearly consumed even more energy... is he really a Second Awakening Cultivator..."

"To appear here, he must naturally be a Second Awakening Cultivator," Fu Tianji said, staring at Chen Guan without a trace of contempt.

He had lived for a thousand years and didn't regard these youths seriously.

Even geniuses like Jiang Qiemo and Zhang Chunman, he treated like children, never truly considering them as opponents, only toying with them in his palm.

Even the previous Chen Guan, Fu Tianji did not take seriously, merely wanting to know Chen Guan's background.

But now, Fu Tianji truly regarded Chen Guan as an opponent, not because he had Secret God pets or because of many strange secret skills.

It was because he was shocked by Chen Guan's rapid energy recovery ability; even for strong beings in the Great Cave Heaven, energy needs to be rationed carefully.

With such energy recovery, when Chen Guan advances to Grotto Heaven or even Great Cave Heaven, he would be a terrifying existence.

As cultivators improve in level and environment, they acquire more and stronger types of secret techniques, yet regardless of how many or how strong, they require energy to sustain combat.

Those in Grotto Heaven or Great Cave Heaven often pursue various methods to recover energy.

Some use Elixirs, others use Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, some use Secret Treasures, and some cultivate recovery Secret Techniques.

The pursuit of energy recovery is because in such places, a Secret Spirit's energy due to racial talent surpasses humans, allowing extensive release of secret techniques.

Among the same level, it's difficult for human cultivators to defeat Secret Spirits one-on-one.

So rapid energy recovery becomes crucial, as using a few more secret techniques can determine the outcome of a battle.

Human cultivators often need to use Composite Secret Skills to compete with Secret Spirits of the same level, and the energy consumption of Composite Secret Skills doesn't need to be mentioned—it's a practically energy black hole.

Chen Guan's energy recovery ability was obviously not from external forces; in Fu Tianji's view, it must be a Lifebound Talent, otherwise, it wouldn't be this quick or lasting.
