Within the Divine Secret Realm.

Gu Xing stared at Sally before him, his brows slightly furrowed.

He discovered...

Aside from Spiritual Attribute, all of Sally's other Attributes were shockingly at the lowest value—"one".

This meant Sally was unbelievably fragile, unable to withstand any attack!

And even if her Level increased...

Besides the Spiritual Attribute, none of her other Attributes would grow!

"This..."

Gu Xing thoughtfully rubbed his chin.

But if this situation was regarded as a unique trait of the Time Spirit Race, it wasn't unreasonable.

After all...

The power to manipulate time was far too monstrous.

If her other Attributes were any stronger...

Then all the other Guardian Beasts might as well not exist at all.

And although all of Sally's abilities were related to time and she possessed no direct combat capability, that did not mean she was weak.

Quite the opposite—in this moment, Sally's strength was utterly terrifying.

As long as she slowed or suspended the flow of time in a space, no attack could so much as touch her.

Only now did Gu Xing finally understand why the Elf Empress said the Time Spirit Race was the most mysterious of all races.

They exist by relying on time itself, traversing the river of time.

Thinking of this, a thread of doubt rose in his heart...

Has the Time Spirit Race truly vanished?

If ever a Totem Level powerhouse arose within their ranks, then could it be that...

They simply aren't present at the current temporal node?

Realizing this, Gu Xing blanked out for a moment.

And according to the Elf Empress's account, it seemed Sally was a seed she herself left behind in the future, meant to inherit the power of the Time Spirit Race.

But if that was the intention, could it be merely for the Divine Pattern of the Time Spirit Race?

He absentmindedly touched the golden Divine Pattern on his forehead.

So far, he'd found the Divine Pattern's function extremely limited...

Aside from being able to slightly manipulate Blue Star's Spiritual Qi, it seemed to have no other Effect.

And the Divine Patterns Liu Li and the others obtained only enhanced their Talent, without further Function.

Thinking of this, Gu Xing let out a sigh.

There were still too many mysteries!

What he could do now...

Was to seize every moment to strengthen himself!

Perhaps only after reaching Monarch Level—or Totem Level—would he be qualified to uncover the truth.

At this moment.

Gu Xing gazed at Sally before him, a hint of gentleness in his eyes.

Instinctively, he reached out to gently pat her small head, softly saying:

"Sally, soon you won't need to stay in the Soul Nourishing Pool anymore!"

For now, Sally only possessed Awakened Tier One strength; her Level was simply too low.

Gu Xing certainly wouldn't risk bringing her out of the Beast Taming Space!

He would only feel at ease letting Sally leave the Beast Taming Space once she reached Commander Level!

Moreover, upgrading Sally's Talent had to be put on the agenda!

Her Level was currently only Legendary One Star, still far behind the other Guardian Beasts!

And when Sally made her sacrifice earlier, he'd made a decision—he must make a Contract with Sally as his Guardian Beast.

Now Sally has awakened...

All these things must be achieved one by one!

But right now, what mattered most was to leave the Divine Secret Realm...

Gu Xing looked up, his gaze falling on the slowly manifesting golden portal ahead, his eyes turning sharp.

"Vera, Lilith, prepare for battle!"

With Gu Xing's summons, two figures answered at once.

Meanwhile, within the Beast Taming Space, Liu Li also volunteered to fight.

Gu Xing's gaze fell on the wound on her back...

Sustained by the Spring of Life, her injuries had nearly healed.

After a brief hesitation, Gu Xing nodded his approval.

After all, faced with the Demon Race's siege, they did need the protection of Liu Li, the Guardian Angel.

And when Liu Li appeared, her gaze immediately locked onto the self-assured Vera.

This Elf, after her Talent upgrade, seemed a bit full of herself.

And, most importantly...

This Elf had tried to sneak away earlier!

Liu Li made a mental note of this grievance.

Once the Demon Race was dealt with, she'd settle accounts with the Elf.

But for now...

Liu Li's expression grew stern, refocusing her attention.

First deal with the Demon Race—leaving this place was the priority.

....

Outside the Divine Secret Realm.

More than ten Half-Step Totem Level demon experts hovered in the air, their cold gazes locked onto the golden portal floating in the sky.

They'd already laid down the Heaven and Earth Net, sealing the surrounding space completely.

"We absolutely can't let that Beast Master escape again this time!"

"We just got word that the Human Race is already pulling back their lines—they're scared of our retaliation too."

A Demon King snorted disdainfully, "Foolish humans! Think sending someone in will let them seize the Divine Pattern? Even if they succeed, how'll they even escape?"

"Though, lately these Humans really have been getting bolder and bolder."

"Once we get the second Divine Pattern, we'll drive them all out of the Alternate Space!"

"Agreed. Now that the second Divine Secret Realm has opened, as long as we secure the final Divine Pattern, the Human Race will lose all value to us."

"But..."

"The Angel Race's War Angel claimed he'd be the first to move against the Human Race."

"Hmph! That old mutt! Wanted him to join us, but he's still hesitating."

"If you ask me, we should just wipe out the entire Angel Race!"

"Their Divine Pattern isn't even in their hands—what's the point of exterminating them!"

While these demon leaders discussed, the golden portal abruptly rippled.

"Someone's coming out!"

At this, all the demons tensed instantly.

"Vroom—!"

The golden portal trembled fiercely; what burst out first was a thick surge of Demonic Qi.

This was the aura the Divine Secret Realm couldn't digest, forcibly expelled as the portal opened.

"This is..."

The demon experts' faces changed dramatically.

A Half-Step Totem Level Demon King grabbed a wisp of Demonic Qi, his pupils contracting sharply:

"Nearly all demons who entered the Secret Realm have been wiped out? Impossible!"

The other Demon Kings were all taken aback by this.

That human was only Commander Level—how could he kill hundreds of Monarch Peak demon warriors alone?

Did something happen inside the Divine Secret Realm?

The Demon Kings wore expressions as dark as water.

If their entire army was lost and the Divine Pattern remained in the Secret Realm, they'd lose the chance to obtain the final Divine Pattern...

The whole operation would be for nothing!

Yet at that very moment.

A human figure strode boldly out of the golden portal.

The Demon Kings were shocked.

The human—wasn't dead?

Their gazes zeroed in on Gu Xing's forehead, narrowing their eyes in unison.

The human had snatched the Divine Pattern!

The Demon Kings exchanged glances, relief flashing in their eyes.

So long as the Divine Pattern had left the Divine Secret Realm!

But as for whether this human could escape...

Impossible!

Meanwhile.

At Gu Xing's side, three figures brimmed with fighting spirit.

Liu Li, the Guardian Angel, with twelve golden wings displayed!

Vera, the Elf, three Divine Rings floating behind her!

Lilith, her whole body swirling with blood and energy!

This was currently Gu Xing's strongest battle lineup.

Liu Li and Vera possessed Monarch Peak combat power, while Lilith was even a top-tier existence among Half-Step Totem Level fighters.

At this moment, all three had activated every boost they could.
