God of Pets-Chapter 697: Application of Abilities

On the desk was the map of Pengxuan Grotto Heaven, marked with numerous areas where Secret Spirits existed, some of which were difficult even for humans to reach.

It's not that humans lack the capability to kill those Secret Spirits; with their power in the Grotto Heaven, even the strongest Secret Spirit would struggle to withstand a large-scale army siege.

The Secret Spirits that humans can't kill generally fall into two categories. One is that the environment is so special that human armies can't deploy their methods there.

The other category is that the Secret Spirits themselves are unique, either coexisting in large numbers or possessing various means of escape that prevent human armies from trapping them.

Chen Guan researched these to prepare for his own upgrade.

Although he no longer had an abundance of Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, his Creation World could now assist him in upgrading.

Regardless of whether it was Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, various mineral veins, Secret Spirits, Demons, or humans, the Creation World could decompose them into the pure energy he needed.

Of course, when it comes to using humans as energy, Chen Guan would subconsciously avoid doing so.

Thus, the best targets he could choose were Secret Spirits.

Heavenly and Earthly Treasures are hard to find, and so are various mineral veins.

Only Secret Spirits are easiest to locate; places where armies can't venture, Chen Guan can go, and Secret Spirits pursued by others can also be pursued by him, and the more Secret Spirits, the better.

The Secret Collection of Creation World is not as rigid as Deity's, requiring less from the upper limit of Primordial Energy, but still requires gradual recovery, and Chen Guan's Primordial Energy cannot supplement it.

The Primordial Energy consumption of the Creation World Secret Collection is unique; 1 point of Spiritual Power can use Creation World, and 100,000 points can also be used.

No matter how many points of Spiritual Power are used for the Creation World, it requires waiting until the deficit of Spiritual Power is recovered before it can be used again.

And the highest limit of Creation World is Chen Guan's Spiritual Power limit.

The more Spiritual Power used, the stronger the Creation World's capabilities; if it's just 1 point of Spiritual Power, it might only break down a brick into pure energy.

Thus, the more items that need to be decomposed, the more Spiritual Power is needed, and creation requires more energy consumption.

Chen Guan decomposed those two Great Cave Heaven Powerhouses, using up all his Spiritual Power in one go to complete the decomposition.

As for whether that much Spiritual Power was needed, Chen Guan wasn't sure at the time, and he also needed to gradually explore the usage details of Creation World in the future.

Another issue with Creation World is that it directly decomposes matter into energy, and since the matter completely loses its energy, Secret Spirits killed by it won't drop anything.

No pets, Secret Core, Inner Core, Secret Treasure, nothing at all, wiped out instantly.

Even if the Spiritual Power usage of Creation World is controlled to decompose only a Secret Spirit's head, it still won't result in any pets.

This characteristic is very similar to Empty Leaf; Secret Spirits erased by Empty Leaf similarly leave nothing behind.

However, Empty Leaf is more absolute; it not only drops nothing but doesn't convert energy at all; it simply disappears without a trace.

Actually, Chen Guan has been researching this issue; something can't just completely disappear into thin air, at most transforming into another kind of matter.

It's like water evaporates, but that doesn't mean the water is completely gone.

The things erased by Empty Leaf seem to truly vanish, losing all connection with this world.

And the fifty percent probability of Empty Leaf is quite strange; why does it have such a fifty percent probability?

This abstract function doesn't seem like something a Celestial Destiny Secret Treasure should possess, rather like the rules of Secret Law.

But Chen Guan knows for sure that this is not the Secret Law Rules.

And when Chen Guan studied Empty Leaf's information carefully, the info didn't mention the fifty percent probability, but spoke of existence or non-existence.

When Empty Leaf obscures vision, there might exist something there, or it might not.

In practice, it indeed closely resembles a fifty percent probability, which is why Chen Guan thought the Empty Leaf had a fifty percent success rate.

Yet upon further reflection, if Empty Leaf is used in reverse, the place obscured by vision might contain what he desires, or it might not.

Of course, the premise is having sufficient energy supply.

Chen Guan now has a Primordial Energy limit of over two million, and he attempted to use these over two million Primordial Energies for reverse operations, imagining a sword behind the leaf.

No matter the amount of Spiritual Power he invested, nor the quality level of the sword he wished for, it didn't affect the fifty percent success rate.

So Chen Guan considered if there's a possibility the fifty percent success rate doesn't exist at all, but is merely a mechanism of Empty Leaf.

Matter can't disappear into thin air, so what is erased must have some destination place.

Is it possible that the erased matter is actually compensating for the things that appear out of thin air?

And the reason for failure of the things appearing out of thin air—and their failure consuming Spiritual Power—could be to compensate for the successful erasure needing to handle the matter's destination issue.

The issue of success and failure might exist because when using Empty Leaf, positive and negative applications need to be paired to achieve some balance.

Just like a scale, where if you remove the weights from one side, the weights there will completely disappear, and the scale will tip completely.

But later, Chen Guan performed experiments finding that cross-using Empty Leaf's two characteristics does not increase the probability of success.

This seems to prove Chen Guan's guess wrong, but in the process, he discovered an interesting issue.

If he first uses Empty Leaf to manifest something, such as initially manifesting a sword, then uses Empty Leaf to erase a sword of similar quality level, the success rate becomes very high.

Conversely, if a sword is first erased, then manifested out of nowhere, the success rate is also very high. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

This makes Chen Guan feel that although his guess wasn't completely wrong, he may have just not found the real key.

However, Empty Leaf has one problem; it can't manifest identical life forms out of nowhere.

Chen Guan tried using Empty Leaf to manifest Flower Fairies; the manifested Flower Fairies looked identical, but they shouldn't be the same life form.

Meaning, using Empty Leaf to resurrect a life form or a person won't work.

Even if the manifested person looks exactly like the intended resurrected one, they're not that person, but merely an empty shell.

Using Empty Leaf to manifest all life forms will have this issue, and manifesting life is extremely energy-consuming.

Even with Chen Guan's Primordial Energy limit exceeding two million, putting it all into Empty Leaf can only create life forms similar to Flower Fairies.

This is much harder than erasing them; erasing similar Secret Spirits such as Flower Fairies requires only a little Spiritual Power and can be done easily.

Thus, to this day, Chen Guan hasn't fully understood the operating mechanism of Empty Leaf.

However, using the mechanisms he has understood, Chen Guan invented a method to use Empty Leaf.

If an opponent possesses a very powerful Secret Treasure, Chen Guan can first manifest a similar Secret Treasure with Empty Leaf, and once successful, he can target the opponent, directly erasing their Secret Treasure with a very high success rate.

But this involves the coexistence issue; like when Secret Treasures and life forms coexist in the obscured view, the life forms will impair the chance of the Secret Treasure being erased.

Therefore, it's best to use Empty Leaf on the Secret Treasure when it's alone to achieve higher likelihood.
