Chapter 52: Tidal Treasure Snail
Chapter 52: Tidal Treasure Snail
“Dragon Meditation?”
Ye Xuan looked at the psychic power technique that the Elder of Arrays handed to him and squinted.
There were also introductory words behind this technique, but in this introduction, it stated that there was only one layer to this technique.
This layer could be practiced at every stage before the Challenger level.
Successfully practicing this technique would allow the Beast Tamer to use the technique on their beast. Dragon Transformation was an extremely adaptable ability. A lot of beasts could be matched to it.
It seemed as if the Elder of Arrays had been deliberate. The introduction stated as followed: Ye Xuan could use the Dragon Transformation technique on his two beasts if he managed to successfully hone it.
If so, the Tyrannosaurus would develop amber dragon scales that were outside of its own body, and this would greatly increase its defense. Aside from that, its strength would amplify as well.
If he used the technique on Lil Wan, the Mutated Aucuba Vines that she commanded would mutate a second time to become much more resilient. At the same time, she would be controlling much more nimble vines.
“How’s that? Are you satisfied with this psychic power technique I’ve picked out for you?” the Elder of Arrays asked with a small smile on his face when he saw the glee that flashed across Ye Xuan’s eyes.
“Elder of Arrays,” Ye Xuan could not help but probe when he heard the elder, “are these psychic power techniques rarer if they have fewer layers to them?”
“For the most part.”
The Elder of Arrays spoke, “Of course, this is a big world, and there are too many unknowns.
“As far as I’m aware, some techniques created by the extremely powerful contain upwards of 10 layers. One would gain immense power from honing a every one of these layers. However, I’ve never once seen a technique like this. It’s almost impossible for you to obtain such a technique in a world like yours.”
“Thank you for explaining it to me, Elder of Arrays.”
There was a clear look of yearning on his face as he listened to the elder.

He knew, of course, that he was already unbelievable fortunate to be able to obtain a technique like Dragon Meditation, given his current state.
“You’re welcome.”
The Elder of Arrays shook his head. “This Dragon Meditation technique that I picked out for you is not passed down from the Chaoxi Sect. It’s a powerful technique spread from the Palace of the Ocean Dragons.
“Even within the palace, there were not a lot of people who could hone it.
“Honing a technique like this will grant you a benefit that lasts you a lifetime.”
Ye Xuan was startled. It was then that he learned about the history of this technique.
Of course, at the same time, he grew rather curious about the Palace of the Ocean Dragons that the Elder of Arrays mentioned.
He wondered what sort of a power it was.
“That said, whatever evolutionary resources I give you, or even the fact that I picked out the Dragon Meditation technique for you, these are the greatest boons I can offer you within the boundaries of the rules.”
The Elder of Array’s lips curled up slightly at this moment.
He raised his head and looked out in the distance. He said, “these are not my actual investment in you.”
They were not?
Ye Xuan was astonished.
Suspicion crept onto his face.
He did not think these were not the real boons the Elder of Arrays was gifting to him.
He could not help the anticipation that swelled in his chest.
“The real boon I’m gifting you is a beast, a beast whose potential knows no bounds.
“Here’s the thing: that beast is not in the Spirit Pagoda. It’s somewhere in this Secret Realm.
“As such, I can only tell you where it’s hidden, and what is special about this beast.
“Seek out this beast for yourself once you’ve advanced to becoming a Dark Iron level Beast Tamer and have raised your strength to a certain level.”
A beast whose potential knew no bounds?
Ye Xuan could not help but be a little disappointed when he heard this. With his Beast Editor in hand, it was much more convenient for him to find a beast suitable for himself than it was for other people.
On top of that, any beast that could bond with him was practically one with potential that knew no bounds.
“What, you don’t believe me?”
The Elder of Arrays caught sight of the expression that Ye Xuan had unintentionally let slip. He said with a chuckle, “I have to tell you, this beast is called the Tidal Treasure Snail.
“It’s a very rare dual element beast, a Space Element and Mystery Element beast.
“This beast possesses a total of six abilities.
“One of them is the Tidal Treasure. When it uses this ability, it can create a tide to fly through, and it flies an at incomparable speed. When paired with a razor-sharp edge, it makes for an extremely lethal ability.
“Another one of its abilities is the Tidal Vortex. This ability allows the beast to bring down Tidal Vortexes around itself.
“These Tidal Vortexes would allow itself to withstand most attacks, including your Tyrannosaurus’ roar and eyes. If not used frequently, it would be difficult to cause damage to the beast.
“But the Tidal Treasure Snail’s most powerful ability are the last four.”
The last four?
Ye Xuan was astounded. Just listening to the Elder of Arrays explain the first two of the Tidal Treasure Snail’s abilities was enough to make Ye Xuan feel that this beast was powerful.
He had not expected for the Elder of Arrays to be most focused on the other four of its abilities.
“Its other four abilities are these: Real-Time Map, Treasure Hunting, Treasure Stashing, and Treasure Devouring!”
The Elder of Arrays said solemnly, “The Real-Time Map is an ability that sharpens its awareness to the extreme.
“It allows the beast to display every little thing in its surroundings in a mini map.
“The Treasure Hunting ability refers to its extreme sensitivity to treasures. It has the power to seek out these treasures.
“As for the Treasure Stashing ability... You might not know this, but there’s a type of beast on this earth referred to as the Treasure Refinement Element beast. Treasure Refinement Element beasts are able to refine all sorts of secret treasures beyond your greatest imagination, and the Tidal Treasure Snail’s Treasure Stashing ability refers to its ability to nullify, and even stash it away altogether.”
Ye Xuan’s eyes were wide as he listened to the Elder of Arrays.
He did not think there was such a mystical beast roaming this earth.
But that was not all. After saying all that, the Elder of Arrays continued, “and its final ability, the Treasure Devouring ability, is the crux of why I say its potential knows no bounds.
“As long as you’re able to find all sorts of mystical treasures, allowing the Tidal Treasure Snail to swallow these whole will allow it to continuously skyrocket. It would allow the beast endless possibilities.”
The shock on Ye Xuan’s face was much more palpable after he heard all of this.
At the same time, the anticipation for the Tidal Treasure Snail amplified in his heart.
He wondered what would result of him using his Beast Editor to edit the beasts that were already bonded to him. What sort of evolution would arise from that?
“What do you think? You don’t think I’m exaggerating anymore, do you?”
After he spoke, the Elder of Arrays waved a hand and conjured up the image of the Tidal Treasure Snail right in front of him.
He then told Ye Xuan in detail about where the Tidal Treasure Snail was hidden, as well as other facts like its weaknesses.
“Is this the Tidal Treasure Snail?”
Ye Xuan was even more astonished when he saw what the Tidal Treasure Snail looked like.
He had not expected this thing to look completely different from what he had imagined.
There was an inexplicable beauty to it.
“Alright, I have told you everything I need to. You can leave now.”
In the end, the Elder of Arrays waved again and a beam of blue light shot into Ye Xuan’s head.
“Is this...the Dragon Meditation honing method?”
Ye Xuan’s heart pulsed.
He then felt his surrounding environment change. After shouldering through the warping and spinning of his surroundings, he found that he had suddenly left the Spirit Pagoda.
He was now back outside the Spirit Pagoda.
