No one dared to act rashly again. All they did was watch.
Everyone wanted the white elephant Companion Egg, but no one dared to send a Companion Beast into the mountain temple. The death of the Epic immortal crane was truly shocking.
Although Zhou Wen felt that his Mythical Companion Beast should be able to withstand the golden light emitted by the monk-robed skeleton, he was afraid that the golden light from the crystal would erupt again. When that happened, even a Mythical creature might not be able to withstand it. It was clearly too risky to sacrifice a Mythical pet for a Mythical Companion Egg and not necessarily be able to retrieve it.
An Tianzuo and Leng Zongzheng didn't let their Companion Beasts enter the mountain temple. Clearly, they had the same qualms.
After the dust settled and the two Mythical dimensional creatures died, no one dared to enter the mountain temple to take the Companion Eggs. There were temporarily no new anomalies in Dragon Gate Grotto.
Qin Wufu had already ordered the army to disperse and rest. The soldiers and officers returned to their positions. However, the Epic experts from the wealthy families sized up the Companion Egg indignantly, trying to get it out.
In the end, they lost several Epic Companion Beasts and failed to enter the mountain temple.
Zhou Wen finally suppressed the urge in his heart and didn't let his Mythical Companion Beast enter. Before figuring out the origins of the monk-robed skeleton and the crystal, taking risks meant death.
"Young Master Wen, Chancellor Leng invites you over," An Sheng said as Zhou Wen was loading the supplies.
Zhou Wen put down what he was doing and followed An Sheng to Leng Zongzheng's office.
When Zhou Wen arrived, he realized that An Tianzuo and Qin Wufu were there. Zhou Wen pretended not to see An Tianzuo and only greeted Leng Zongzheng and Qin Wufu.
"Little Zhou, come and sit here." Qin Wufu warmly invited Zhou Wen to sit down.
Only then did Leng Zongzheng say, "You saw what happened in the mountain temple. What do you think?"
Qin Wufu said, "Chancellor, do you think the golden crystal in the monk-robed skeleton's hand is the legendary relic?"
"That's a possibility. However, relic is a Buddhist treasure. Logically speaking, it shouldn't have such destructive power," Leng Zongzheng said.
An Tianzuo thought for a moment and said, "I have an idea. Perhaps that monk-robed skeleton isn't a dimensional creature from Dragon Gate Grotto."
"Explain in detail." Leng Zongzheng gestured for An Tianzuo to continue.
An Tianzuo continued, "When we saw him sitting cross-legged in monk robes, we imagined him to be a dimensional creature from Dragon Gate Grotto. However, the power he used, including that crystal, looked different from the Buddhist-type creatures I've seen before."
"Well said." Leng Zongzheng nodded lightly.
An Tianzuo added, "In my opinion, he's the same as the white elephant and the golden bird. They are all coveting the items in Dragon Gate Grotto's mountain temple. However, he entered earlier, so he occupied that place. The white elephant's target was not him, but the stone house behind him. Based on this, the thing that caused the anomaly in Dragon Gate Grotto is very likely in that stone house. "
"Tianzuo's guess coincides with mine. The golden-winged bird and the monk-robed skeleton are both top-notch Mythical creatures. If we wish to achieve anything, I'm afraid we will inevitably have to compete with them. We need to make early preparations." After Leng Zongzheng said that, he looked at Zhou Wen and said, "When the time comes, you will enter the mountain temple with us. You have to be prepared to fight the golden-winged bird and the monk-robed skeleton. If there's anything difficult, you have to tell me in advance."
"Yes, I'll prepare well," Zhou Wen answered.
Leng Zongzheng nodded and continued, "If the monk-robed skeleton really isn't a dimensional creature from Dragon Gate Grotto and it isn't Buddhist-type, which do you think its power is most likely of?"
Qin Wufu pondered for a moment and said, "I've seen quite a number of dimensional creatures over the years, but this is the first time I've seen such power."
Seeing Leng Zongzheng look at him, An Tianzuo shook his head and said, "I've never seen it before."
Seeing that everyone had no idea what the monk-robed skeleton's strength was, Leng Zongzheng said, "In that case, let's begin our preparations by determining the strength attribute of the monk-robed skeleton."
Zhou Wen listened to their discussion from the side, but he couldn't interrupt. After all, he was still too young. The dimensional zones and dimensional creatures he had come into contact with were limited, and his experience couldn't compare to the few people present. All he could do was listen to their discussion and gain quite a bit of knowledge.
Leng Zongzheng and company planned on using the most primitive and effective method to test what type of dimensional creature the monk-robed skeleton was.
The method was very simple. It was to use the principle of attributes reinforcing and restraining each other to send Companion Beasts of similar strength but different types into the mountain temple.
Then, he could observe their reactions after being attacked by the golden light in the mountain temple. If they were mutually reinforcing or mutually restraining each other, there would definitely be some different reactions. They might die faster, or they might persevere for a longer period of time.
Using these minute differences, they could roughly deduce the monk-robed skeleton's type.
Of course, this method had a prerequisite. Among the Companion Beasts used for the test, there had to be existences that could complement or restrain the monk-robed skeleton. Otherwise, it would be useless.
After the discussion, An Sheng was in charge of the test mission. Zhou Wen wasn't assigned any missions as he continued making preparations.
The test didn't go smoothly. An Sheng used nineteen Legendary Companion Beasts of different types for the test, but he didn't find anything abnormal.
In the end, he felt that Legendary Companion Beasts were too weak. Even if they had attributes that countered each other, it was difficult to show them. All he could do was use Epic Companion Beasts for the second round of tests.
The results of the second round of tests were the same. After sacrificing more than ten Epic Companion Beasts, he still failed to test the monk-robed skeleton's stats.
The only thing he could confirm was that the monk-robed skeleton wasn't Buddhist-type.
Zhou Wen had been thinking about how he could safely get the white elephant's Companion Egg out, so he was also studying the monk-robed skeleton's stats.
Unfortunately, as Dragon Gate Grotto didn't undergo any anomalies in-game, nor did the mountain temple or monk-robed skeleton appear, there was no way to test it in-game.
After some thought, Zhou Wen thought of a solution that wasn't really a solution.
Primordial Spore's Life Providence was Eternal Indestructibility. Although its stats weren't strong, it wasn't easy to kill it.
Even the Golden Overlord Sword's Golden Sword Aura, which had the augmentation of Unstoppable and Unstoppable, couldn't kill Primordial Spore. This showed how powerful the Eternal Indestructibility Life Providence was.
At present, Zhou Wen only knew of two skills that could directly kill Primordial Spore — Bright Torch Vision World and Tai Sui's talent.
Therefore, Zhou Wen thought of letting Primordial Spore enter the mountain temple to give it a try. Perhaps, he could discover something.
With his decision made, Zhou Wen didn't hesitate any longer. He released Primordial Spore and let it slowly float towards the mountain temple.
