Please be my partner.

Of course, many aspects are involved, such as the timing of dimensionality reduction, energy constraints, and power control.

If one fails to control it well, it is easy to hurt both the enemy and yourself.

This level of energy release, let alone a legend, could injure even a saint if he wasn't careful.

Even if it reaches the level of Garuru that can barely be used in actual combat, the arm that launched the attack will still be wiped off. You can imagine how dangerous it is.

In a flash of light, Garuru transformed back into a small mechanical dog and jumped into Mellen's arms, barking proudly, "Woof woof woof," as if to say, "Master, master, do you think I was awesome just now?!"

Melun stroked the dog's head and said with a smile: "Awesome! Garuru is the best."

After receiving praise from its owner, the mechanical dog's tail wagged even more happily.

Energy fluctuations of this magnitude directly scared the monsters on Tianshan Mountain and made them flee in all directions.

Without their disturbance, the mechanical puppet giant wolf began to dig deep into the ground on Tianshan Mountain.

With those ruined buildings as the center, some secret rooms were excavated every once in a while, and a lot of gold, silver and treasures were found in them. Occasionally, some books, bamboo slips or stone carvings were also found, but the former two were basically in ruins and could not be read at all. Only the latter could still barely record some content.

The stone carvings all contain the inheritance of martial arts skills, which is understandable. After all, no serious person would write a diary, and even if they did, it would be unlikely to be carved on stone.

After seeing these stone carvings, Melen couldn't help but feel disappointed, because the best martial arts inheritance among them was only comparable to the [Hundred Peaks Carrying Mountains Style] that Wen Jie gave him. Apart from that, there were some powerful martial arts, but not the way of the Martial Saint that he wanted.

As time went on, Melen gradually became disappointed, and Garuru was not as happy as before.

Just when Mellen thought he would get nothing this time, Garuru suddenly jumped out of his arms and made a "woof woof" sound.

Mellen's eyes lit up, realizing that the goods must have been shipped, and immediately followed Garuru.

Soon, the man and two dogs arrived at a huge cave, where there was still a lot of breath of the stone monster, which was obviously where the latter often slept.

The cave is not deep, and it only takes about a hundred meters to reach the end. At the end of the cave, there is a huge rock more than ten meters high, shaped like a mountain.

In fact, this huge stone had been discovered by the mechanical puppet giant wolf before, but apart from its strange appearance, there was no written record of it, so it was naturally ignored by the mechanical puppet giant wolf. It was only when Garuru reviewed the memories and perspectives of each mechanical puppet giant wolf that he noticed some clues.

The moment he saw the huge rocks, Melen fell into a trance. He seemed to be suddenly in a vast world, and a sacred mountain connecting heaven and earth appeared before him.

A name was imprinted directly into Mellen's mind, telling him that this was...

Taiyue!

Chapter 376 [Taiyue Map] and a Little Shock from Technology

Taiyue, according to legend, is the sacred mountain that supports the sky in the world of mountains and seas. Because of its existence, the sky and the earth in the world of mountains and seas are divided.

The strange boulder in front of Mellen is a martial arts heritage called [Taiyue Map]. It contains not only the Taiyue heritage, but also a lot of more advanced martial arts knowledge.

If one could fully comprehend the true sacred mountain Taiyue, it might not be impossible for him to become a martial arts saint, let alone a martial arts immortal.

Of course, the [Taiyue Map] is only a replica of the real sacred mountain Taiyue, and it only shows a fraction of the latter's charm. Even so, it already contains a complete path to becoming a martial saint.

In addition, in addition to being a heritage item, the [Taiyue Map] is also a treasure for enlightenment. With it by your side, you can achieve twice the result with half the effort when comprehending the martial arts and rules related to the earth.

This is also the fundamental reason why the stone monster placed the [Taiyue Map] in its lair.

Perhaps, if this giant stone monster is given more time, it might be able to become a saint-level monster.

This kind of treasure is not only useful to Melen, but can also be of great help to the new Branded Knight profession that Spike has been conceiving.

When Melen brought the [Taiyue Map] into the Fairy Tale Kingdom, Spike immediately returned to the Fairy Tale Kingdom to comprehend it. This was of course a good thing for Melen. After all, what Spike comprehended was the same as what he comprehended!

The giant stone monster was truly penniless. There was nothing in its lair except for this [Taiyue Map].

After coming outside, the mechanical puppet giant wolf had gathered the gold, silver and treasures it had collected. To be honest, these things were basically useless in the current post-catastrophic collapsed world. The caves were all about resource allocation and barter. But the fairy tale kingdom didn't lack this space anyway, so Melen just put them away.

In addition, there are hundreds of captured monsters.

Most of these monsters are weird, with all kinds of strange abilities, and a small number of them are physical, with very interesting abilities.

Mellen deliberately let Garuru leave these alive, naturally to prepare for the Holy Spirit Dog. These monsters with rare abilities must be good research materials.

After plundering Tianshan, Melen returned to Baishi City.

Although the trip was fruitful, the goal was only half accomplished. In addition to seeking the way to become a martial saint, what was more important was to find a way to reach the Mountain and Sea Realm, and this method was most likely in the hands of the major sects.

Now, as time flies, many records have turned to ashes. Only the information recorded on the stone carvings may be preserved. However, stone carvings are usually used to record various martial arts traditions for long-term preservation.

Although it is not impossible to record the method of traveling to the Mountain and Sea Realm on stone carvings, the probability of finding a sect that happens to do so and the relevant stone carvings are also complete is too low.

Therefore, Mellen had to find another way, which was plan B that he had planned in advance.

If there is anyone in the disaster world who may know how to go to the Mountain and Sea Realm, then apart from the top monsters like the Blood Demon Evil God, it can only be the descendants of the top leaders of those powerful sects before the disaster.

After all, the turmoil of the disaster lasted for a long time. Sects like the Tianshan Sect that suddenly collapsed and disintegrated without much reaction were ultimately a minority. Many powerful sects should have anticipated and prepared for the disaster in the middle and late stages.

When destruction cannot be stopped, spreading the sect's legacy is almost inevitable.

If Melen could find the settlements established by these sectarian sparks, he might be able to get the information he wanted.

Of course, the worst possible scenario is that, with the passage of time, all the settlements established by the sects have disappeared, and all the relevant information has been submerged in the long river of history. In that case, he can only find a way from the evil god.

If things really develop to this point, it will undoubtedly be quite difficult for Mellen.

Although Melen was indeed preparing to deal with the Blood Demon God, his original plan was to make sufficient arrangements in secret, and then kill him with a powerful blow, leaving him no chance of a comeback.

In this situation, how could we even think of keeping someone alive to get information?

There is no way Mellen would do something that would tie his own hands!

Recovering his scattered thoughts, Melen ordered: "Let Wen Jie come to see me."

As he finished speaking, the bell hanging on the eaves outside the room rang automatically without wind, making a clear sound.

A few hours later, Wen Jie arrived, exhausted, and respectfully asked, "Senior, are you looking for me?"

Only then did Wen Jie take a quick look around the room. Apart from the ascended senior, the dog that had given him an even more terrifying feeling was no longer there. Instead, there was a palm-sized dog made entirely of metal. This metal dog was now jumping around in the room, seemingly entertaining itself.

Mellen waved his hand, motioning Wen Jie to sit down and talk, then asked, "How's the thing I asked you to do going?"

Wen Jie had already prepared for this question and answered directly, "Senior, we have begun exploring the surrounding area, but because there are monster forces on many key roads, and there are also a large number of powerful monsters in the wild, only those at the level of worshipers are capable of this work, so progress is slow."

"We've already gathered basic intelligence on the four surrounding monster forces and have established contact with two human catacombs. However, in this day and age, establishing trust with other catacombs isn't something we can do quickly, so obtaining information about those two catacombs will take some time."

Mellen nodded slightly, understanding that Wen Jie had done his best to achieve all this in a short period of time, and was not prepared to blame him for anything.

He waved to Garuru, and the mechanical dog, which, even when playing alone, still focused most of its attention on its owner, immediately jumped over happily.

Melen stroked the mechanical dog and said to Wen Jie, "Let my dog go with you. Expand as quickly as possible. I need to know more information."

Wen Jie blinked, and although he was confused, he immediately agreed.

The main reason is that Garuru itself is too deceptive. The mechanical dog's ability to transform makes it very concealed. In addition, it follows a technological route, which is completely different from the martial arts system of the mountain and sea world community. Wen Jie cannot sense any strong aura from Garuru at all.

Of course, in Wen Jie's mind, there must be a reason for the senior's instructions, but he just hasn't understood it yet.

The senior in front of him had no intention of explaining, so Wen Jie had no choice but to leave with a lot of doubts and the metal dog that looked like a toy.

On the way, Wen Jie looked back from time to time, fearing that the little thing would be lost or something might happen to it.

Garuru seemed to feel that it was too slow to move on its own short legs, but after leaving its owner, the whole dog became listless and no longer had any thoughts of entertaining itself. It just wanted to quickly complete the task assigned by its owner so that it could return to its owner as soon as possible.

So, when Wen Jie looked back again, he was shocked because two three-meter-tall metal giant wolves appeared silently behind him.

Just from the huge size of these giant metal wolves, and their flashing cold fangs and sharp claws, one can easily understand how powerful they are.

The mechanical puppet giant wolves leaned down, Garuru jumped onto the head of one of them, then waved his little paws, signaling Wenjie to ride on the other one.

Although Wen Jie was a little scared, he still carefully rode on the mechanical puppet giant wolf.

With a "whoosh" sound, two giant mechanical puppet wolves rushed out like arrows. The speed was so fast that Wen Jie, who was only one step away from Wu Zong, was startled and hurriedly grabbed the necks of the giant mechanical puppet wolves.

It was not until Wen Jie had run for a while that he got used to the howling wind that he noticed that although the mechanical puppet wolf was fast, it moved very steadily and did not shake even when facing complex terrain.

Just as Wen Jie was experiencing this unique and novel feeling, a line of text appeared out of thin air in front of him in the form of a virtual projection.

"After returning to your settlement, gather all combatants."

Wen Jie glanced at Garuru and realized that this was an instruction from the latter, so he immediately nodded to show that he understood.

The cave where Wen Jie is located is called Huaihe Cave, named because it is not far from the Huaihe River. The Huaihe River is also the main source of fresh water for this cave, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the source of life.

After arriving at the Huaihe Cave, Garuru had no intention of entering the cave, so he waited outside while Wen Jie went into the cave to gather people.

Soon, nearly two hundred people walked out of the cave. Except for the necessary personnel who stayed behind, this was all the available combat force in the cave.

Even facing the toy-like Garuru, Wen Jie remained respectful and said, "Sir, we have summoned five priests, twenty-one guards, and one hundred and sixty-eight scavengers. Currently, most of the Huaihe Caverns' combat power is outside. If you give me three days, I can expand the available manpower to over six hundred."

The group looked at their leader, then at the tiny metal dog, and were all a little confused.

Zhou Shao and Meng Shao had just completed their mission and were returning, and were also among those summoned.

Young Master Meng asked in a low voice, "Is that...metal dog some powerful monster? Why can't I sense its presence?"

Zhou Shao shook his head and made a gesture to keep quiet. Although he didn't understand why, he absolutely trusted Chief Wen Jie. Now he just had to follow the arrangements.

Garuru waved its little paws to indicate that there was no need to go through so much trouble. Without any further movement, ripples appeared in the void and giant mechanical puppet wolves walked out of them.

The huge size and cold metal style brought a great sense of oppression to the group of people in the Huaihe Grottoes.

Words appeared in the void...

"Each of you will have a little wolf as your partner. Complete the task assigned by the master as quickly as possible."

Before the people in the Huaihe Cave could react to the meaning of this sentence, the giant mechanical puppet wolf suddenly pounced on them.

Some people subconsciously tried to dodge, some instinctively launched a counterattack, and some simply stood there stupidly, unable to move...

However, all these reactions were of no use at all. The mechanical puppet giant wolves were all at the third level limit and had undergone special reinforcement. It could be said that each one was even stronger than Wen Jie. The general strength of these were only warriors, and only a few had reached the level of martial artists. There was no room for resistance at all.

Of course, Garuru had no intention of dealing with them. He saw these mechanical puppet giant wolves begin to deform in the air and then directly enveloped them one by one.

Soon, nearly two hundred people in wolf-shaped mechas appeared.

These mechanical puppet giant wolves all have attached energy furnaces and inherit Garuru's ability to transform.

In Mellen's early plans, there was a plan called Iron Spike. Although this plan failed after only one or two uses due to their rapid increase in strength, Garuru still memorized many templates of auxiliary mechas, which came in handy at this time.

When the group came back to their senses from the shock, they slowly realized the power of the mechanical puppet giant wolf mecha.

Someone couldn't help but use the elemental energy cannon of the giant wolf mecha. There was a loud "boom" and a big hole three meters deep and seven or eight meters wide appeared on the ground not far away.

Everyone was stunned. Even their revered leader could not create such destructive power.

Many people immediately became eager to try it out, as if they also wanted to have a go.

Fortunately, Wen Jie reacted and stopped others from doing so in time.

What a joke, this place is not far from their Huaihe Cave. If one person comes and shoots, the damage caused may even cause the cave to collapse.

The power of the giant mechanical puppet wolf brought a little technological shock to the natives of the disaster world.

At this moment, words appeared in the void again...

"Little Wolf will teach you how to use it. Once you're familiar with it, complete the exploration mission as quickly as possible and explore as many areas as possible."

They quickly received information from the Giant Wolf Mech, and saw the Giant Wolf Mech on someone's body quickly folded and eventually turned into a bracelet. This magical scene made them marvel, and many people followed suit and put away the Giant Wolf Mech.

In addition to transforming into giant wolf mechas, these mechanical puppet giant wolves can also fight independently. In addition, they have a variety of auxiliary functions such as scanning, early warning, recording, and communication, making them a good helper in exploring new maps.

After handing over the specific command task to Wenjie, Garuru waited on the side.

As Wen Jie redistributed the exploration missions, two thoughts raced through his mind...

Why isn't mine?

Why didn't I call more people up?

About half an hour later, everyone received their new exploration mission and left excitedly.

Wen Jie looked at the people leaving and felt a little envious. During the task distribution process just now, he had already understood the strength of the Giant Wolf Mech. With such power, let alone a simple exploration, even...

Seeing that everyone else had left as planned, Garuru wrote in the void...

"Come on, take me to the nearest large gathering place of monsters."

Wen Jie was even more respectful to Garuru: "Yes, sir!"

The two of them rode on the giant mechanical puppet wolf and flew away quickly.

Chapter 377 Expansion

Xiaofeng Mountain.

Although the name contains the word "small", the area is not small at all. The surrounding terrain is steep and it is close to the Yuntian Mountains. The mountains are shrouded in clouds and mist all year round and are full of steep cliffs, canyons and streams.
