Chapter 497: Mountain Guardian

"Hoohoho..."

The terrifying beast roared violently. Not only Li Qian, but almost everyone in the entire Secret Realm No. 3 could hear it clearly.

They walked out of the research base one after another and looked at the collapsed location of the central mountain range.

The trainers and base staff who were unaware of the inside story looked at this scene with puzzled expressions, while a small number of trainers who knew the inside story frowned and felt deep worry in their hearts.

At the beginning, Li Qian was indeed confused, but after thinking about certain information, he suddenly understood.

He probably guessed what it was.

Just as a group of breeders and research base staff in Secret Realm No. 3 were watching, a huge pet beast that looked like a wolf but not a wolf, a tiger but not a tiger, with a single horn on its head and wings on its back suddenly jumped out from the place where the central mountain range collapsed.

"This is the mountain-guarding beast!" Li Qian and Wu You stood on the roof of the research base, looking at the mighty giant beast, and couldn't help but let out a shocked sound.

It is obvious that this mountain-guarding beast should be the guardian beast that has been guarding the No. 3 secret realm.

In other words, this is a legendary pet!
Of course, what really made Li Qian feel incredible was not the pet itself, but the violent state that the pet was now showing.

Logically speaking, since this mountain-guarding beast was chosen by Shazhou Beast Taming University as the guardian beast of Secret Realm No. 3, there would definitely be no problem for it.

But at this moment its strange state is really a bit bizarre.

hum!
After the Mountain Guarding Monster appeared, it flew directly into the air. Suddenly, a translucent ripple appeared in the sky.

Then, under the puzzled gazes of everyone in Secret Realm No. 3, the Mountain-Suppressing Hound dived into the translucent ripples without hesitation and disappeared.

"Let's go and take a look!"

Li Qian also did not hesitate at all. He immediately spoke and gave orders.

Upon hearing this, Wu You, who was standing next to him, directly summoned his pet, the Flame Dragon Eagle.

The two of them leaped onto the back of the Flame Dragon Eagle and flew to the halfway point of the central mountain range in Secret Realm No. 3.

Halfway up the Central Mountain Range, there is a flat area with a light gate standing on it, which is the exit of the formation of Secret Realm No. 3.

Just as the two were flying towards the middle of the mountain, figures began to rise above the various research bases in the secret realm.

Among these rising figures are flying pets and various types of aircraft.

Obviously, they were also surprised by the strange behavior of Zhenshanhu and wanted to follow it to see what was going on.

Li Qian and Wu You were the ones who acted relatively quickly. When they arrived, there were not many people at the entrance to the formation halfway up the mountain.

Without any hesitation, the two of them stepped directly into the formation.

There was a flash of light and shadow, and the two of them walked out from the formation again.

At this moment, their figures have appeared inside the Shazhou Beast Taming University.

After coming out, the two of them immediately started searching.

Soon, they saw the figure of the Mountain Guarding Hound in the southern sky.

However, at this moment, the mountain-guarding beast was already very far away and had become only the size of a sesame seed.

If it weren't for Li Qian's amazing eyesight, he wouldn't be able to tell the difference at all.

"Oh no, something might have happened to Mr. Ying!" Dean Pan Bing of the school's combat academy suddenly jumped into the air and made a shocked sound.

He immediately took action and flew directly after the Mountain-Suppressing Hound at an extremely fast speed.

"Let's go over and take a look!" Li Qian thought for a moment, then continued to instruct Wu You who was standing beside him. Wu You then gave the order directly to the Flame Dragon Eagle.

The Flame Dragon Eagle spread its wings again and carried the two people in the direction where the Mountain Guarding Hound left.

He did hear the exclamation from Dean Pan Bing just now.

Li Qian also knew the "Mr. Ying" he mentioned.

In Secret Realm No. 3, he had seen Ying Lao many times.

This is a retired old man with nothing to do.

Yes, that’s what Li Qian thought at the beginning, because he was so relaxed in the secret realm.

Li Qian guessed that Mr. Ying's identity might not be simple. After all, an ordinary retired old man is not qualified to wander around in the secret realm. What he didn't expect was that he was actually the beastmaster of the Mountain Guarding Hound and the guardian of the secret realm.

From what Dean Pan Bing said just now, Li Qian had already heard that something might have happened to Mr. Ying.

It was because the Mountain Guarding Hound sensed that Ying Lao was in danger that it broke free from the Central Mountain Range without hesitation and left.

Li Qian had a pretty good impression of the old man in Secret Realm No. 3.

He had seen the other person several times when entering and exiting the secret realm, and every time the other person would greet him with a smile.

After Dean Pan Bing left, Li Qian looked in the direction he left and had a bad feeling in his heart.

There is no doubt that Mr. Ying is a hidden boss in their school and a legendary beastmaster.

But now, such a hidden boss is in crisis, and even his pet has to rush to rescue him immediately, which is enough to prove how dangerous the situation is.

"Hey, this place is not..." As he was flying, Li Qian found something wrong.

Because at this moment, he was extremely familiar with the direction in which the Flame Dragon Eagle was flying.

It was in the direction of Zhenxi Town where he had previously discovered the rock giant and the rock sword master.

No, to be exact, it is the location of Black Stone Forest.

"When was a town built here?" Li Qian discovered something unusual in mid-air before he got close.

He saw that the Black Stone Forest was completely different from before.

In the outskirts of the Black Stone Forest, a fairly large town was built at some unknown time.

And it was obviously different from ordinary towns. This town was surrounded by towering walls.

In modern cities, there is no such thing as building city walls. This practice is a bit like the cities in the other dimension.

Before Li Qian got close, his figure was still in the air, when a figure on a flying skateboard rose into the air below the town and blocked his way.

The person who blocked Li Qian's way was a young man in a black uniform, who should be an official beastmaster. "Student Li Qian, I'm sorry, no one is allowed to enter here for the time being!"

"What exactly happened here?" Li Qian did not do anything rash.

He knew that something must have happened in the town below, but he didn't know what it was.

Moreover, he is very aware of his own strength.

With his current strength, if the enemy is one that even Mr. Ying and Dean Pan Bing cannot deal with, he would just be delivering food to them if he went there.
