God of Pets-Chapter 437: Harvesting the Bright Sun Flower
Chen Guan was somewhat amazed by the Secret Deity’s power, but he saw Wang Lian wave her hands, and many weapons flew back to their rightful owners.
From the attack to the retrieval of the weapons, everything seemed so smooth, and they even heavily injured the super-sized Secret Spirit scorpion creature, a terrifying display of strength.
However, Chen Guan noticed the distress of Wang Lian and the Secret Deity—they were lacking in Primordial Energy, lacking stamina; the brief burst just now likely had nearly drained their Primordial Energy.
"The ability is decent, just too weak." Chen Guan gained some understanding of the Secret Deity’s capabilities.
If the Secret Deity fused with Chen Guan, relying on his vast Primordial Energy, her abilities would be enhanced to an epic level.
The stronger the Primordial Energy, the more weapons the Secret Deity could control, and the more powerful and sustained the explosions would be.
With the support of a million Primordial Energy, she might directly control the enemy’s weaponry on the battlefield, using a Sea of Weapons to slaughter the opposing army.
But controlling the enemy’s weapons is ultimately just to kill the opponent; to achieve this, Chen Guan had many more methods he could use, as long as his Primordial Energy was intact, he had plenty of choices.
One could say, with Chen Guan, the Secret Deity would be terrifying, and without the Secret Deity, Chen Guan’s terror would remain unchanged.
Simply put, Chen Guan could do without the Secret Deity with little impact, but without Chen Guan, the Secret Deity would be lacking.
"However, this weapon-controlling ability is indeed dazzling; thinking about being able to use the opponent’s weaponry as one’s own is quite amusing," Chen Guan thought to himself.
After Wang Lian retracted her Divine Power, the female scorpion creature was already heavily wounded, and Dina and others commanded their pets to continue attacking; the female scorpion creature no longer had strong resistance and would be killed sooner or later.
Chen Guan had no intention of intervening; he wanted to wait until Wang Lian and her group picked the Bright Sun Flower, then snatch it from them.
Even though Dina was related to the Xiu Family, it couldn’t stop Chen Guan from taking the Bright Sun Flower, at most, he wouldn’t harm her out of regard for Xiu Yingmei and Xiu Jie Ming.
In this situation, it still took Dina and her team nearly an hour to finally kill the female scorpion creature.
Dina’s squad had a dedicated Beheader to deliver the final blow, using talent to increase the chance of obtaining a pet or Secret Core.
Unfortunately, their luck wasn’t good today, and the Beheader got nothing after killing the female scorpion creature.
Luckily, the materials on the female scorpion creature could still be sold for some money, unlike the ones Chen Guan killed, whose bodies turned into ice shards with no recyclable materials.
Despite this, Dina’s team was still quite pleased, as the materials from the female scorpion creature were still quite valuable.
Most importantly, those Bright Sun Flowers belonged to them now.
Dina and Wang Lian didn’t bother handling the materials from the female scorpion creature; there wasn’t much time left before the sun came up, and they needed to gather as many Bright Sun Flowers as possible before sunrise.
They were evidently quite knowledgeable about the Bright Sun Flowers and didn’t let anyone else handle them besides the two of them.
As the two women tried to pick the Bright Sun Flowers, they indeed managed to pluck them. The Bright Sun Flowers they picked didn’t wither into ashes but instead became even more vibrant, with stronger fluorescence on the flowers.
"These Bright Sun Flowers are quite the lustful blossoms, only allowing women to pick them," Chen Guan thought, somewhat amazed as he saw Wang Lian pluck the Bright Sun Flowers.
The surprise came because, during their last meeting, Chen Guan knew Wang Lian had practiced the "Afang Sutra."
This thing was originally concocted by Ming Fei based on her Joyful Technique, and Ming Fei could sense it as Wang Lian approached.
However, the "Afang Sutra" Ming Fei created was a patched-up version, and after Wang Lian modified and completed it herself, the "Afang Sutra" she came up with was somewhat nonsensical.
Yet, no matter how it’s modified, it can’t change the fact that the "Afang Sutra" is a Dual Cultivation Technique.
Wang Lian practiced Dual Cultivation, and when he last saw her, she was flirtatious and even flirting with that Qin Family young master; Chen Guan assumed she no longer qualified to pick the Bright Sun Flowers.
Unexpectedly, Wang Lian, who practiced the "Afang Sutra," hadn’t engaged in Dual Cultivation.
"This is rather strange, why hasn’t she engaged in Dual Cultivation?" Chen Guan wondered.
Without dwelling on the question—it wasn’t his concern anyway—Chen Guan watched Wang Lian and Dina quickly pick Bright Sun Flowers, placing them on a piece of large fabric.
Over a thousand Bright Sun Flowers lay on the canvas before the sun rose, thanks to the women’s speed.
"It’s time." Chen Guan used Giant Spirit Power to alter his physique; his clothes were already changed, and his face was made up, ready to act when he noticed yet another change.
Around the desert, a terrifying horde of Secret Spirits, resembling a great animal migration, was approaching from all directions, charging towards Wang Lian’s group.
There were giant snakes, scorpions, and even tank-like ants, along with some bizarre Secret Spirits never seen before.
Flocks of common sand hawks dove from the sky like a dark cloud descending, their numbers terrifyingly large.
Suddenly it seemed like all the Secret Spirits of the desert had congregated here, their numbers unsettlingly immense.
"Retreat... immediate retreat... don’t touch those Bright Sun Flowers..." Dina kicked a teammate who tried to grab the Bright Sun Flowers, causing them to stumble backward.
She knew these Secret Spirits were undoubtedly drawn by the Bright Sun Flowers; with so many Secret Spirits, if they were trapped, it’d be a dead end.
The Bright Sun Flowers now were essentially death talismans, whoever touched them would die.
Wang Lian quickly understood this too, and although she was reluctant, she had no choice but to abandon the Bright Sun Flowers and retreat with the team, distancing themselves.
"These Secret Spirits are quite smart, knowing to wait until we pick the Bright Sun Flowers before coming to snatch them." Wang Lian was filled with helplessness, not expecting her hard work to become a gift for the Secret Spirits.
Chen Guan was also surprised; these Secret Spirits were indeed cunning.
Unable to pick the Bright Sun Flowers themselves, they lay in wait for Dina’s group to pick them and then swooped in.
At this point, the Secret Spirits paid no heed to Dina and the others and were only focused on the Bright Sun Flowers; retreating, Dina’s group faced almost no attacks, only a few oblivious Secret Spirits who ran at them were dealt with.
"What a pity about those Bright Sun Flowers," Dina lamented, though she seemed less concerned than Wang Lian.
Chen Guan watched those Secret Spirits about to rush up and ruin the Bright Sun Flowers; he couldn’t tolerate that.
With a thought, Chen Guan followed the Secret Spirits, charging towards the Bright Sun Flowers.
