Chapter 311: The Origins of the Cloud Palace! 2

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The special thing about emperor-grade materials was that they were related to the tier 3 evolution of most pets.

After a pet’s tier 3 evolution, the pet would normally be at the stage between level 4 and level 7. They would possess extremely powerful battle prowess!

They were the main force of the pets that beastmasters in every country relied on, the mainstay of their strength.

Apart from that, emperor-grade materials were also related to whether or not one could refine emperor-grade equipment and medicine, supplements, as well as whether pets could cultivate some special combat techniques, and so on, indirectly affecting the strength of pets after level 7.

“From a certain perspective, a country’s foundation is made up of these factors,” Wang Ye shook his head.

Why was it so difficult for Xiao Jiu and the white python to evolve previously?

It was because many of the materials needed were emperor-grade materials. There were no channels to get them in the country, and they were very hard to find.

Some of them were even extinct.

The astral stone that was currently the only material lacking for the sword rabbit to evolve was an emperor-grade material.

The sword heart grass was also an emperor-grade material. It was a semi-extinct state. Without the Ancient Sword Relic, they might not even find many even if they flipped Dongli Country upside down,

“If the white python can make the Infernal Relic mass produce emperor-grade materials...” Wang Ye could not help but start daydreaming.

If that happened, he would not only have a few pets. He would have an army of pets.

Think about it, a large batch of Overlord and Legen-class pets were rushing towards the enemy.

Of course, if the news were to spread, it would probably be another earth-shattering battle, just like when the divine pond had appeared back then.

“It’s better to develop secretly...” Wang Ye thought to himself.

Then, he continued to collect quite a lot of materials.

A few days later, just as Wang Ye was planning to help the white python learn that inheritance skill, Jiang He, the big shot of the professions department, came looking for him.

“To make a long story short, the Cloud Palace is going to open in half a month,” Jianghe’s expression was solemn.

With his status, it was rare for him to come in person, “According to the plan, you were supposed to be in special training this month, but for some reason, you didn’t show. The spot to go to the cloud palace is very important, and there have also been some changes...”

“What do you mean?” Wang ye coughed.

The big shots of the national professions department and the two dark fog scholars were not in the same system.

The dark fog scholars came from the mysterious Dawn Bureau, and they almost didn’t participate in anything that was not related to the dark fog.

They didn’t care about pet evolution, profession advancement, secret realms, or relics.

The dark fog scholars would only appear when something was directly related to the dark fog.

“Maybe the Daying Kingdom leaked the news about the Cloud Palace,” Jiang He said with a sigh, “But the other countries seem to have received the news and want a piece of the pie. They might secretly send beastmasters into the Cloud Palace. “We have a total of twenty spots. According to the research of some of our relic scholars, the more young beastmasters who enter the Cloud Palace, the more dangerous it might be. Once certain rules are triggered, there’s no need to think about the danger that would cause to one’s life.”

Wang Ye’s heart skipped a beat. He recalled the previous few simulations he had done.

It seemed in one of the simulations, he had been injured by a beastmaster from the Xiongang Kingdom at the Cloud Palace...

“Xinghai Province was only allocated four spots, and I’m in charge of the one allocated to the professions department. The Investigation Corps will be sending Zhao Ping, the universities will be sending Bing Li, and the army will be sending Gou Hao. You guys can be considered old acquaintances. You can be considered as the chosen ones who just happen to fit the criteria to enter the Cloud Palace.”

“But right now, the situation has changed. Someone will withdraw,” Jiang He looked at Wang Ye, “You can choose to withdraw. After all, you didn’t participate in the special training because of some matters.”

With the admission of other countries, it would obviously become very troublesome to explore the relic.

“Wait, Department Chief Jiang, you haven’t told me in detail about the origin of the Cloud Palace,” Wang Ye thought about it and didn’t choose to withdraw.

He kept feeling that there was something fishy about the Cloud Palace.

“Hmm? I didn’t tell you about this?” Jiang He was stunned. He walked to the side and sat on a chair, then said, “Alright, I’ll tell you about it briefly. To be honest, we don’t know much at the moment.”

“The Cloud Palace is located at the junction between our country and the Daying Kingdom. It’s very special. When we first sensed its existence, the army in the northern part of our country had been patrolling the border when many beastmasters were unconsciously sucked into a mysterious space.”

Jiang He said slowly, “At first, we thought it was an attack from a strange god. Later on, the number of beastmasters being sucked into the mysterious space gradually increased. There were even some sea mechanical kuns or small merchant ships sailing nearby that were sucked in along with the mechanical pets... Later on, it attracted the attention of the country, and the officials immediately sent a Deity-rank expert to lead a group of scholars and professors to investigate the area.”

“The people were automatically sucked in?” Wang Ye was taken aback.

“That’s right. After those people entered the Cloud Palace, we couldn’t sense any signs of their lives in the outside world. We didn’t know if they were alive or dead. The results of the investigation later showed that it was a unique mechanical relic that emitted a unique wave of mechanical energy, creating a special force field that sucked in beastmasters from the outside world. According to the research and discussion of many scholars, one of the most recognized theories is that this should be a battlefield relic formed after being eroded by the dark fog a few hundred years ago.”

“You also know that in history, there was a time when we humans abandoned the strength of technology and focused on studying pets and talents,” Jiang He’s voice seemed to recall something, “Back when the dark fog first attacked, our technology was useless. At that time, all the countries in the world were very united. All of us worked together to study technology to fight against the dark fog. We weren’t like this...”

Wang Ye knew about this history. It was all in the textbooks.

The history of the world was roughly divided into three stages.

Before the dark fog was the stage of the five countries’ peak.

During that era, there were the five most powerful countries. They were at their peak and held a dominant position in the world.

Apart from the five kingdoms, there were hundreds of other small countries that shared the world’s territory.

The flourishing times had been the peak of history after thousands of years of changing dynasties.

It had a flourishing culture and a long history.

Although there were occasional wars and conflicts in the world, the overall situation was relatively peaceful.

It was very similar to the Earth in Wang Ye’s memory at the beginning of the 21st century.

The dark fog era was after the prosperous era of the five countries.

The dark fog era could be divided into three periods.

In the beginning period of the dark fog, the humans were united. The five countries united and wanted to use the strength of science and technology to drive the dark fog away.

However, they failed.

That period was actually the pinnacle of human technology. It was said that they had developed many powerful technologies.

They were able to reach the pinnacle because all five countries shared the technology. The world’s top talents gathered together and displayed a technological explosion that lasted less than thirty years. They had even found out some of the mysteries of the human body.

However, even so, they were still unable to resist the dark fog’s erosion.

The endless number of strange gods plagued the humans at that time, causing them to sink into deep despair.

After that was the middle period of the dark fog era. It was the darkest era for humans as a whole, and countless small countries were destroyed.

“In regards to that era, as far as some of the secrets I know,” Jiang He said in a low voice, “At that time, after knowing that technology was useless against the dark fog, many wanted to escape this world...”

Wang Ye was silent.

In the middle period of the dark fog era, technology was powerless, humans were divided, and civilization fell apart. Gaps of blank history appeared in the era. The technology of the past gradually disappeared, and countless precious materials were buried in the dark fog.

With the invasion of strange gods, humans gave birth to countless demons and monsters themselves and were on the verge of extinction.

In the later period of the dark fog era, the divine beast totems appeared.

It was also at that time that a certain country that was about to be destroyed developed with the help of the divine beast totem, becoming one of the current six countries.

However, that was only the beginning of hope.

The later period of the dark fog’ era ended when the human race relied on their alliance with the divine beast totems to obtain the pet contract. They were thus barely able to resist the dark fog, ushering in a brand new era.

It was now the era of beastmasters.

“According to the theories of many scholars, the history of the Cloud Palace can be traced back to the early period of the dark fog era. It was also the era when human technology developed explosively. Regarding the Cloud Palace, some scholars have speculated that...” Jianghe said slowly, “Maybe a country developed a small boat to escape from this world and preserve the tinder of human beings, an attempt to cross the vast dark fog river.”

“...” Wang Ye.
