King of beasts

Divine Tree Continent, Qingyu.

Different from the super main cities and ordinary cities scattered in various parts of the Divine Tree Continent, Qingyu can be regarded as the core and most prosperous area of ​​​​the continent, and there are even eighth-level imperial plant masters stationed inside.

Its status is basically equivalent to that of the Imperial City, the imperial capital of the Star-Moon Continent during the Imperial Beast Empire.

The ruins of the Tree King are located in Qingyu.

After confirming that they would challenge the Tree King's ruins, two legends, Ye Ying, the legendary city lord of Tree Boundary City, and Tian Qianmo, the legendary city lord of Fenghuo City, took their respective disciples with them, planning to take them to Qingyu to broaden their horizons and gain experience.

Above the blue sea and sky, a green flying boat shuttled at high speed.

Above, City Lord Ye, City Lord Tian, ​​Lu Ran, and Guyu had already set off.

This flying boat is actually the pet of Lord Tian, ​​a specialized transportation pet. It is very good at carrying people. When Lu Ran rides it, it feels more comfortable and stable than a passenger plane.

Lu Ran stayed in Feizhou's cabin for a while, then couldn't sit still and went to visit his master, the city lord.

"Master."

"Ran'er, what's wrong?"

"Master, you should call me Lu Ran." Lu Ran said bitterly, "Calling me Ran'er sounds weird."

"What!" City Lord Ye didn't understand what was wrong.

"Are you looking down on me, old lady?" She felt Lu Ran's alienation from this title.

"How is that possible, Master? It's just that I'm not used to it. It's different from the customs over there. Even if you call me grandson, it's more comfortable than this." Lu Ran looked helplessly at the old man in front of him.

Looking at the other party, he did suddenly think of his grandmother, the old man who often boiled animal milk for him and cared about him everywhere.

To be honest, Lu Ran feels that he is quite lucky. Both the leader and the city master treat their apprentices very well. Although they have just accepted apprentices, the former spends all their efforts to help him shape his soul, while the latter knows Lu Ran's needs. , and set out immediately to visit other legendary families for Lu Ran, looking for opportunities to awaken.

"Okay, forget it if you don't like it. I only heard my senior sister call her tenant apprentice that way."

City Lord Ye waved his hand and said: "What's the matter? You just broke through to level three. If you don't stabilize your realm and develop your abilities, why do you always see you wandering around?"

Lu Ran murmured in his heart that he also wanted to stabilize his realm, but the key was that he didn't have the space to practice as a beast.

No need to be firm at all.

In fact, Dark Crow will reach level 40 in a few days, and he will be able to enter the next secret realm of breakthrough and achieve a perfect breakthrough.

"Master, I heard that you started out as a beast master, but later switched to a beast master."

"There are rumors outside that you have always wanted to take on a beast master as an apprentice to pass on your family's unique skills. Is it true?"

City Lord Ye was stunned for a moment, then sighed and said: "Not only is it a rumor from the outside world, did your Uncle Tian also tell you about it?"

"Um……

"I did have this idea in my early years. When I was young, due to some changes, I was the only one left in the family. I should have passed on the family's strength, but in the end I chose Yu Zhi."

"After becoming a legend, I thought of recruiting a beast-controlling disciple, as rumored, so that he could pass on my family's skills."

"But I don't want to accept a disciple at will. I haven't found a good candidate, so this matter has been delayed."

"Until you appeared, when I first saw your amazing beast-controlling potential, I was really tempted, but after thinking about it carefully, I gave up.

"You were born in a beast-controlling house, so you are probably exposed to all kinds of beast-controlling skills. My family's beast-controlling skills are not very powerful. Forcing you to learn and pass them on will be a waste of your energy and delay your normal performance. Practice.”

"Let's forget it." City Lord Ye shook his head.

"Master, unless you plan to accept another disciple, you'd better teach it to me." Lu Ran said: "No matter whether this skill is useful to me or not, as your disciple, I have to do something."

"Even if I am not suitable for learning, one day in the future, if I accept a disciple, I might be able to pass it on to you."

Lu Ran was actually not interested in the beast-controlling skills of the city lord's master. Firstly, because he really couldn't learn them. Secondly, even if he could learn them, he had collected a bunch of rare beast-controlling skills from the Xiaguo Research Institute and he had collected them from the Necromancer Cult. A bunch of beast control skills will only get better.

He mentioned this at this time purely to make the city lord and master happy. Although Lu Ran understood that everything was an illusion, at least in the secret realm stage, these illusions were the same as real people and had their own emotions.

By stating that he wanted to pass on the other party's power, he could at least make City Master Ye feel that he had not accepted this disciple in vain.

Using white lies to make the other person happy is one of the few things Lu Ran can do as a disciple.

"You, accept a disciple??"

Hearing Lu Ran's words, City Lord Ye smiled. Lu Ran was just under the age of adulthood, and it was indeed a little early to think of accepting a disciple.

"It must be your Uncle Tian who told you something, don't worry about it."

It's just an ordinary beast-controlling skill, so what if it's not passed down. "

"However, it's rare that you have such a heart."

"Forget it, if you really meet a suitable candidate in the future, then help me pass it on." City Lord Ye smiled, and as she spoke, she took out a cultivation secret book and threw it to Lu Ran.

Beast control skill name: Seal Transformation.

Lu Ran took the secret book and looked at the skill names, but couldn't see anything.

Ye Chengzhu said: "Seal Transformation, this skill can seal the power of your pet beast and put it into a 'sealed state'. In the sealed state, the appearance of the pet beast will change significantly, making it look extremely weak." "

"No, it doesn't look like it. The actual situation will be weaker than before."

"And this sealed state is actually accumulating strength. As long as the seal is released and transformed back to the original state, the power will be much stronger than normal."

"In other words, it is to exchange the usual weak state for a stronger posture in battle."

When Lu Ran heard this, he confirmed it slightly and said, "Isn't this skill very strong???"

City Lord Ye shook his head and said: "Looking at the results, it is indeed not weak. However, when in the sealed state, the pet beast is indeed weaker. In my family, many geniuses encountered sudden dangers because the pet beast was too weak in the sealed state. , without even a chance to lift the seal, he encountered misfortune."

"A truly strong person will not tie himself up like this."

"The process of lifting the seal also takes a certain amount of time. Often, by this time, in a real crisis, life or death can already be determined."

"This skill may be good for 'pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger', but if you pretend to be a pig too much, you may actually become a pig. For ordinary beast control masters, instead of developing this skill, it is better to develop enhanced beast control skills, the same It can greatly increase the combat power of pet beasts in battle. Although it will consume the physical strength of the beast master, it will be more flexible in terms of tactical choices. I didn't develop it in depth because I didn't like the form of this skill."

"Therefore, I don't want to force others to learn and pass on it. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't take the initiative to teach you this skill."

"However, after all, it is a skill that has been passed down by the family for hundreds of years. In short, the emotions are very complicated." After City Lord Ye finished speaking, Lu Ran put away the skill and smiled.

"Master, don't worry, I will study it when I get back. Even if I can't learn it myself, I will definitely receive a suitable one in the future.

The apprentice passed down this skill to the next generation. "

"Don't waste too much energy." City Lord Ye reminded again.

"Especially, this is a beast-controlling skill. It can only be used on beast pets, not on plant pets, so you don't want to improve it to be effective on plant pets. I have tried to improve it, but it is very difficult. The principles of the two are different, and the effect cannot be forcibly changed."

"Disciple, please remember this!"

After a period of flight, Lu Ran and the others finally arrived at Qingyu.

In fact, no matter where they are in the Divine Tree Continent, legendary strongmen are also strategic-level forces. They are like walking natural disasters on the continent. Generally speaking, when a legend arrives in the territory of another legend, they will say hello in advance.

The Tree King Ruins is such an important relic. Although everyone can challenge it according to the Tree King's last wish, there are actually forces responsible for guarding and managing challengers.

"The founder of the Yuzhi force in charge of Qingyu... is said to be one of the suitors of the Tree King."

"The purpose of taking root here is to protect the remains of the Tree King and select a suitable successor for the Tree King."

"It turned out well."

"That suitor has died. His descendants are all at level 8, but no one has been able to pass the Tree King's ruins so far."

On the flying boat, Tian Chuanqi stood at the front of the flying boat and said Bagua to Lu Ran and Guyu behind.

"It's normal for a proud girl like the Tree King to have many suitors." Gu Yu said immersedly: "What a pity that such a legendary figure died before the age of 30."

"The most important thing is that the specific cause of death is unknown." Lord Ye said: "Maybe someone can really get her inheritance and know what happened to her."

She glanced at Lu Ran and said: "The Tree King at his peak is a being who claims to be able to fight against legendary creatures. Don't be careless."

City Lord Ye knows the details of Lu Ran better than anyone else, and knows that Mr. Ha has mastery over the shaping of legendary creatures, but mimicry is mimicry after all. The Tree King is a being that claims to be able to fight against even real legendary creatures, so it is not easy to defeat him.

"Yes." Lu Ran nodded.

As they talked, everyone had arrived at the Tree King City, a city specially built to commemorate the Tree King. The legendary experience of the Tree King can be said to have been immortalized for generations. When she was active in the mainland, she opened up cities for many refugees, many times It enjoys a high reputation for killing ferocious beasts and ferocious plants that cause harm to one party. Even today, there are still many cities enshrining statues of the tree king.

Therefore, the location of her legendary ruins cannot be crude.

Looking at the city with a giant tree leading into the clouds in front of them, Lu Ran and his flying boat had just approached, when a figure emitting a strong aura appeared in front of the flying boat.

"The person coming is the City Lord of Shujie City and the City Lord of Fenghuo City."
