“It’s a Surveillance Array that I’ve mastered. I need you to set it up together with me. As long as it’s set up successfully, it can be maintained for a long period of time.”
“As for the effect, with the enhancement of the array, my observation range can reach up to ten kilometers,” Number 10 said confidently.
“Ten kilometers? The range is indeed not small!” A surprised voice came from the rune.
“Yes, this is the Surveillance Array that I spent a lot of effort to obtain from the abyss…”
“With the Surveillance Array, I can monitor the entire Black Rock City through it for a long time. There’s a very high chance of finding that Perceptor,” Number 10 continued.
“This array is really good. Unfortunately, I can’t leave now. It’ll take at least half a year.” Another voice came from the rune.
“Why?” Number 10 frowned and asked.
“I’m chasing after a bloodline master from the Evil Energy Organization. He’s very difficult to deal with.”
“Bloodline master? Do you need my help? Bloodline masters aren’t easy to deal with,” Number 10 asked solemnly.
“No need. Killing him is my second goal. My first goal is to find an opportunity to breakthrough. We’re the only ones among the ten brothers who haven’t reached Gold Rank yet.”
A serious voice came from within the runes, and this voice was filled with determination.
“That’s right. I’ve also been stuck for many years, and I still haven’t seen an opportunity to breakthrough.” Number 10 sighed.
“Don’t worry. There will be hope. If it really doesn’t work out, then we’ll take that path. However, that’s also a path of no return. Forget it, let’s not talk about this matter anymore.”
“Oh right, two Silver Rank members of the Evil Energy Organization and the Strange God Sect died in the small Mystic Realm outside of Black Rock City. Have you investigated this matter clearly?”
“Yes, I have. It was a small elf that could transform and self-destruct, causing the two Silver Rank warriors to have no bones left.”
“The Evil Energy Organization and the Strange God Sect had suffered a great loss and were half-dead from anger. The key point was that they were still unable to take revenge because the small elf was dead,” Number 10 explained.
“Self-destruct? I really didn’t expect that there would be such a fierce little elf. How vicious!”
“Indeed ruthless. It’s a pity that the little elf died. Otherwise, if he joined my Divine Imperial Palace, he would be another great general with great potential.” Number 10 shook his head.
“It’s indeed a pity.”
…
On the other side, in Song Xiaomei’s house…
Li Xuan quietly observed the outside of the city. After some observation, Li Xuan put away his God’s Perspective and frowned as he pondered.
Li Xuan was very afraid of that golden ball because it was something that was similar to a mental attack. Its effect was very powerful.
Such an attack also gave Li Xuan a reminder to prepare to increase his Spiritual Power.
“If only I could obtain some Mental-Type Skills.”
Li Xuan muttered to himself. He raised his head and saw Qin Yue holding a towel and wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth.
Li Xuan could see the worry in Qin Yue’s beautiful eyes.
“I’m fine. By the way, have you paid your taxes?” Li Xuan asked.
“We’ve already paid them. We’ve saved quite a lot of money in the past few months. Sister Xiaomei and I can already refine Moistening Water Pills.”
Qin Yue said softly and began to explain her situation bit by bit, including her growth in Sister Qi’s shop.
“Not bad, not bad. The speed of growth is faster than I imagined.”
Li Xuan nodded. He was a little surprised by the growth of Qin Yue and Song Xiaomei.
Li Xuan could understand the increase in strength. After all, he had told Qin Yue and Song Xiaomei about the Spirit Race’s cultivation method, so it was normal for them to improve quickly.
However, it was more surprising that they could refine the Moistening Water Pills, so Li Xuan could not help but praise them.
After receiving Li Xuan’s praise, a beautiful smile appeared on Qin Yue’s snow-white face. Her big eyes were bright, obviously liking Li Xuan’s praise very much.
“Eh? The birthmark on your face has actually moved a little.”
Li Xuan noticed that the birthmark on Qin Yue’s face had actually moved up a little. From the looks of it, it seemed to be moving toward the center of her brows.
“I don’t know why either. This birthmark has moved without me noticing.” Qin Yue nodded her head softly. Her large eyes were filled with confusion.
“It should be fine. Pay more attention.”
Li Xuan was not sure why, but this thing had protected Qin Yue before, so it should not be a bad thing.
“I’ll accompany you guys for the next few days. If there’s nothing else, I’ll return to the Summoned Beasts World.” Li Xuan thought of the Mental-Type Skill and prepared to obtain it as soon as possible.
“Only a few days? Can you stay a little longer?” Qin Yue was a little reluctant, and her small hand grabbed Li Xuan’s small claw.
“Don’t worry, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future.”
“Alright.”
…
In the next few days, Li Xuan had a good understanding of the current situation in Black Rock City.
Generally speaking, although Black Rock City was very chaotic, it did not have much of an impact on Summoners.
Summoners like Qin Yue who could refine pills were even more valued and were even protected by the city lord’s manor.
It was just that the lives of ordinary people were very difficult. Under the enormous pressure of taxes, many people could only sell their houses to pay taxes.
Some people also tried to resist, but the results were very miserable.
For example, the Resistance Army, which was very famous, had already killed many people. Even the Evil Energy Organization did not dare to be so ostentatious.
Only the Strange God sect was still arrogant. Every day, hundreds of people stood at the entrance of the slums, staring at everyone who was close to the slums.
However, for some reason, they did not take a single step out of the slums. Even if they left Black Rock City, they still walked through the dilapidated city gates of the slums. It was very strange.
Li Xuan did not pay too much attention to this. Instead, he prepared to leave.
Early in the morning, the sun was bright and beautiful. Birds chirped and flowers were fragrant.
After bidding farewell to Qin Yue, Song Xiaomei, Li Xuan returned to the Summoned Beasts World.
After arriving here, Li Xuan’s figure changed, turning into a strange Summoned Beast covered in white spots.
This was Li Xuan’s original body. Its name was Lightning Resistance Beast. As the name implied, it was a Summoned Beast that could resist lightning.
Unfortunately, it only had one skill, and that was Lightning Resistance. Of course, the level of the Lightning Resistance Skill was not low, and it had already reached Advanced Level.
“It’s time to commit suicide. Obtaining a Mental-Type Skil is important. I hope you won’t disappoint me.”
Li Xuan activated his Battle Instinct and injected all his battle experience into his body, leaving a large amount of battle will remain in his body.
After everything was over, Li Xuan used the earth spike and chose to commit suicide again.
Whoosh!
After a long period of hard work, Li Xuan’s world finally fell into darkness.
[ Ding! You have died. Random resurrection… ]
Following the mechanical notification sound, Li Xuan’s world once again lit up, and he came back to life.
“I don’t know what kind of Summoned Beast it has become this time, so I’ll just open the data panel,” Li Xuan muttered and directly opened the data panel.

….
“Eh? A Hidden Beast? Only one Innate Skill to hide itself? It seems to be similar to the Invisibility Skill.”
Li Xuan carefully observed his own situation. He realized that the Summoned Beast that he reincarnated this time was a little weak.
The reason for its weakness was that it only had one skill, and it was a support skill, Advanced Stealth.
“Forget it, I’ll continue browsing through my memories before committing suicide.”
Li Xuan closed his eyes and quickly browsed through his memories. Two hours later, he suddenly opened his eyes and scanned the surroundings with his God’s Perspective. Very quickly, he locked onto the Steel Mountain in the Northeast direction.
“It’s the Steel Flower, there are really Steel Flowers. This is a good thing that can raise the level of the Steel Body from Intermediate to Advanced. There are actually so many of them.”
Li Xuan looked at the densely packed Steel Flowers on the Steel Mountain and could be said to be ecstatic. His figure immediately flew up like a gust of wind and flew away.
His speed was very fast. Under the effect of Wind Wings and Speed Enhancement, he flew toward the Steel Mountain at his fastest speed.
At the Steel Mountain, a terrifying roar reverberated in all directions.
A Bronze Rank Steel Lion roared wantonly. Its steel claws waved crazily. With every strike of its claws, people would die.
The violent strength and the fierce fighting posture made the Steel Lion as dazzling as a god of war.
“Run! Run quickly! Now!”
The Three-Eyed Race’s captain hurriedly shouted. Covered in blood, he ran frantically, bringing a few Three-eyed Race people to the foot of the mountain in fear.
“Huff, huff, huff! It’s too strong! This Steel Lion is simply a monster. It’s too terrifying..” The Three-Eyed Race’s captain panted.
