66: The Great Realm of the Netherworld is now open!

Since Little Dragon Zombie had reached Level 6, Bai Tian specifically checked how its attributes had improved.

— [Little Dragon Zombie]!

Quality: 9-Star High Rank (Can evolve infinitely!)

Type: Bloody Battle

Level: 6 (67.09%)

HP: 1620

Attack: 188

Dual Defense: 126

Skills: [Corpse Howl], [Share Link], (A new skill will automatically awaken every 10 levels.)

Status: (Recognized Brilliant as master).

Hunger: 91

As a Bloody Battle type 9-Star High Rank pet, Little Dragon Zombie's HP and defense growth rates were indeed very high.

Even at only Level 6, its attributes were already surprising.

As its level continued to rise, it would undoubtedly become a great assistant to Bai Tian.

Little Dragon Zombie's two core skills—[Corpse Howl] and [Share Link]—were what Bai Tian valued most.

The [Corpse Howl] skill had a powerful area-of-effect taunt, capable of forcibly pulling the aggro of non-friendly units within a 100-yard radius, making enemies have no choice but to attack Little Dragon Zombie.

Meanwhile, the [Share Link] skill allowed Little Dragon Zombie and Bai Tian to share damage.

Once Little Dragon Zombie released Corpse Howl and then gave Bai Tian a Share Link, that 80x Rebound effect would be enough to become a nightmare for any player.

Checking the time, it was almost 7 o'clock. Thinking about the [Nether Heaven Great Realm] server-wide map tonight, Bai Tian decided to log off first after cleaning up the battlefield.

Before logging off, he listed the Blue Gear he had swapped out from his bag, along with other dropped black and Green Gear, on the trading platform.

Although he wasn't short on money now, who would complain about having more wealth?

After completing these tasks, Bai Tian logged off on the spot.

He heated up the improved version of [Buddha Jumps Over the Wall] and Emperor Fried Rice he had packed at noon, and opened a bottle of Shanshui Beer.

After eating and drinking his fill, Bai Tian went out to throw away the trash and took a 40-minute walk by the lake.

Just as he was preparing to return to the apartment and log back on, his phone suddenly rang.

A strange number from abroad caught his attention.

Bai Tian guessed it might be a call from his Close Friend Liao Fan, so he answered immediately.

Sure enough, Liao Fan's gruff, loud voice came from the other end: "Bai Tian, buddy, I'm back at full health!"

Bai Tian smiled and said, "That's great! I've prepared a few gifts for you, just waiting for you to come back."

Liao Fan laughed heartily: "I'll definitely look forward to any gift you give."

"If nothing goes wrong, I'll be back in two days at the latest."

Bai Tian smiled: "Alright, I'll be waiting for you."

After ending the call, Bai Tian hummed a little tune and returned to the apartment.

Once Liao Fan returned, with the top-tier equipment, Hidden Class Cards, and powerful skills Bai Tian had prepared for him in the game, he believed Liao Fan would quickly catch up to the mainstream Tier 1.

At that time, Bai Tian would be able to take him along to explore the game properly.

Seeing that there were only 5 minutes left until eight o'clock, Bai Tian immediately logged into the game.

As soon as he logged on, Bai Tian received a flood of friend messages, with those from Frost Like Snow making up the vast majority.

Her words were full of emotion: "Waaa... Stinky idol, you and Brocade actually hid from me that you each got a cute and powerful pet."

"I don't care, inside the [Nether Heaven Great Realm] tonight, you two must carry me to balance out my jealous and envious feelings..."

Bai Tian couldn't help but chuckle as he looked at her message, simply replying with an "OK."

At the same time, Flowers in Full Bloom also sent a voice message: "Foolish Snow and I are leveling up Little Phoenix on the Desolate Plains. Hurry back to town to resupply, and then come meet up with us."

In addition, Glorious World, Jade Star Painting Moon, and Pudding Kid also sent messages, all hoping to team up with Bai Tian for an adventure in the [Nether Heaven Great Realm].

Bai Tian didn't mind; after all, the [Nether Heaven Great Realm] was a server-wide map, and people from the same region were considered on the same side.

A team could have up to 8 people. Including Flowers in Full Bloom and Frost Like Snow, there were still 5 vacancies.

If he really ran into them in the [Nether Heaven Great Realm], Bai Tian wouldn't mind taking them along.

Next, Bai Tian chose to return to town to repair his equipment first.

However, the repair fee was as high as 21 gold coins, which made him click his tongue in secret; this was simply robbery!

Bai Tian stared suspiciously at the muscular NPC repairing the equipment, wondering if this guy was ripping him off.

The other party responded nonchalantly, "You kid, with a full set of high-level equipment, the repair cost is naturally not cheap."

He continued casually, "If you think I'm overcharging, feel free to find someone better. Don't come to me to fix your gear in the future; I certainly won't stop you."

With that, he turned and left, leaving only a cold back for Bai Tian; clearly, his temper was even worse than Bai Tian's.

Fortunately, Bai Tian still had over 790,000 gold coins, so he could still afford to repair his equipment.

Just then, a server-wide system announcement sounded.

— "(Ding-dong!)"

"(The time-limited server-wide map [Nether Heaven Great Realm] will officially open in two minutes.)"

"(All players who have reached Level 15 or above, regardless of which server region they are in, can participate in this adventure exploration.)"

"(Please note, the [Nether Heaven Great Realm] is an adventure map full of challenges and opportunities. Experience points and drop rates will be tripled, but the death penalty is equally severe, also tripled.)"

"(The time limit for entering the [Nether Heaven Great Realm] is from 8:00 to 8:10. Players who miss this timeframe will have to wait until 8 PM the next day to enter.)"

"(In addition, the [Nether Heaven Great Realm] regional and server-wide point rankings will be opened for a period of 7 days.)"

"(Points can be earned by killing monsters or hostile players from other servers. After seven days, the [Nether Heaven Great Realm] will be closed permanently.)"

"(At that time, the top 100 players in the regional point rankings and the top 100 in the server-wide point rankings will receive generous rewards.)"

"(During the event, players who log off or die will be forcibly sent out of the [Nether Heaven Great Realm]. The points of fallen players will be halved, and they must wait until the next day to enter again...)"

Although the system announcement hadn't finished yet, it had already sparked heated discussions among countless players.

Because the primary condition for entering the [Nether Heaven Great Realm] was reaching Level 15, this threshold shut out at least 75% of the players across the server.

At the current stage, players capable of reaching this level were undoubtedly the elites of the game.

Taking the Great Xia Region as an example, although it had 40 million players, the number of players reaching Level 15 was estimated not to exceed 3 million.

Fortunately, the [Nether Heaven Great Realm] event would last for a full 7 days, giving players plenty of time to challenge themselves and prepare.

For those players who hadn't reached Level 15 yet, the next seven days would be a precious opportunity to level up.

As long as they put in enough effort during this time, it was entirely possible for them to step into the mysterious [Nether Heaven Great Realm] within a day or two and begin a brand-new adventure.
