All the customers in the line were excited to hear that professional training was available.
They were waiting in line to train their pets in Su Ping’s store partly because he was famous and partly because the pets trained there became much more remarkable.
Someone had once taken a Three-Colored Winged Dragon for training, and it evolved into a Seven-Colored Butterfly Dragon!
And that was just after a normal training which was very affordable.
Someone had even claimed it was just a publicity stunt, but they were lambasted the moment they said that. Su Ping’s identity was too special to need such money making schemes.
Professionals had analyzed Su Ping’s store and his power, concluding that the young man had only opened the place on a whim; either for fun or charity.
Even the potential thousand-year revenue of the store would mean nothing for him.
After all, Su Ping could easily ask Shen Huang for a few galaxies, which could be sold for an astronomical amount of money.
Almost all the customers in line chose professional training. The rest also wanted to switch, but they didn’t have enough money and were regretful about it.
There weren’t many openings available. The store closed soon after they were filled up.
Su Ping asked Joanna to take out the pets that would go through professional training. He then bought temporary contracts from the system and signed them all up. There were seven Star State pets, four were Star Lords, and one was at the Fate State.
Su Ping could only train them in three batches.
“I’m leaving.”
Su Ping bid goodbye to the staff, then brought up the list of cultivation sites; he chose an advanced cultivation site called the Dark Demon World.
The ticket price was similar to that of the Demigod Burial.
Su Ping estimated that the strongest creatures found there would only be at the Celestials level, and there wouldn’t be a lot of them.
Judging from the site’s description, it was an ancient beast haven. There were no humans there; it was more of a primordial barbaric world.
That was perfect for cultivation and training.
Su Ping hadn’t really enjoyed himself during his last battle in the Golden Crow Clan. He was planning on challenging another Celestial creature.
He entered the Dark Demon World—
He saw thick clouds covering the dark sky. Dark red streaks of light shot through the gaps in the clouds, showing three red moons that illuminated the ground, like three bloodshot eyes gazing at the world.
There was a bloody stench in the gruesome wind. Su Ping instantly felt that a couple of creatures had fixed their brutal and bloodthirsty eyes on him.
He seemed to have fallen into a beast den upon arrival.
Su Ping took his time and summoned the four pets to be trained. He also summoned his own pets and asked them to warm themselves up.
The customers’ pets became nervous the moment they entered that environment. They looked around warily, with their backs against Su Ping.
Roar!
A creature dashed out from amongst the trees and grass that was as obscure as algae; it launched a law-infused stream. The four Star State pets were instantly petrified by sheer terror.
The attacking beast was a Star Lord. It unfolded its world and caged its opponents.
The Little Skeleton shook and was about to take action, but Su Ping stopped it in time.
“Go!” Su Ping commanded the four Star State pets.
The four trainees almost wanted to rebel.
Go?
How could we go against such an enemy?
They were unable to move, and fury was mixed with despair in their eyes. They were angry with their cold master!
The next moment, a force was imposed on them. The four pets suddenly felt they had regained some of their mobility; one ran into the distance, another roared and charged at Su Ping, and two were still trembling—they were too scared to run away or charge at Su Ping. Begging was the only thing in their minds.
Su Ping slightly shook his head upon seeing their embarrassing performance. He kicked the three-tailed wolf trying to bite him, knocking several of its teeth. He then waved a hand and attracted the fleeing pet, changing its direction towards the enemy beast charging at them.
Given the unexpected change, the pet was so horrified it peed and pooped on the spot, screaming in the most desperate way.
Bang!
The next moment, its body was simply torn apart.
Su Ping shook his head, not once trying to stop the beast. He asked the other three pets to continue attacking.
The three pets shivered and died soon after; only one of them made a desperate counterattack, but to no avail.
Su Ping resurrected the four beasts, and asked them to attack again before they realized what was going on.
The enemy beast was clearly scared by what it saw; resurrection was not something it could understand. However, it furiously went after the four weak pets aiming to attack, tearing th em to pieces once again.
Resurrect!
Go again!
Su Ping casually waved his hands, blocking the nearby space. The beast had no idea it couldn’t leave anymore.
The four pets were resurrected and killed time and again. Finally, they began to resist.
The first, the second… All four pets began to charge at the beast with crazy abandon.
Their attacks weren’t really effective.
They were resurrected right after dying and they went back at it again.
The process was repeated several times.
The Dark Dragon Hound, the Inferno Dragon and the other pets looked at each other, feeling sympathetic toward the four pets. It had been a good while since they had last seen Su Ping torture others; it was usually them being the ones tortured.
Acting as the audience was actually a lot of fun.
The beast—forced to act as sparring partner—roared. Even though it didn’t understand what was going on, it seemed to have realized that Su Ping was the one behind it all. The creature immediately charged at him, no longer caring about the four pets.
It could tell that the little human was also a Star Lord.
“Huh?”
Su Ping realized the beast’s purpose, and couldn’t help but raise his head and look at the thing.
Hiss!
The beast stopped abruptly in the middle of the charge, hairs rising and blood almost flowing in reverse due to fear. Its pupils dilated and its body was trembling; Su Ping’s glance had almost ousted its soul from its body. Every cell was screaming to stay far away from that little human!
Horrifying!
I have to stay away from this human!
It remained stock still in midair, no longer daring to move. It didn’t snap out until the four pets resurrected and attacked again. The wild beast was too scared to fight, so it turned around and fled.
Unfortunately, the space before its eyes changed, and it was back in front of the four pets again.
The appalling scene dumbfounded the beast, which realized it had run across something that was far too strong to counter.
A long while later—
The beast was finally exhausted after the four pets tortured it repetitively. Su Ping simply gave it to the Purple Python as it was never picky about food.
The snake had the best digestive ability of all his pets; it simply coiled its body right after swallowing the beast to start the digestion process.
The onlooking creatures had vanished at that point.
Su Ping didn’t consider it a big deal, leading all pets forward. Once he encountered suitable beasts, he would use them as sparring partners. On the other hand, he would simply kill or shoo away Star State beasts, if they ever saw any. Whenever he met with Ascendant beasts, he would ask the Little Skeleton and the others to practice with them, as their abilities already gave them the capability to fight Ascendant beasts.
They were still adapting to the power drawn from small worlds. Once they became familiar, they would be as strong as top-tier Heavenly Lords.
Time flew.
Su Ping flew all the way forward in the clouds, finding the world extremely primitive. There were giant trees and beasts everywhere; he didn’t see any signs of civilization.
I’m already strong enough to dominate the advanced cultivation sites like this one… The strongest beasts encountered by Su Ping were Ascendants in level, but they were as strong as top Heavenly Lords. Given the harsh environment, they would fight each other all the time, and they knew all sorts of powerful techniques.
The Little Skeleton and the other pets were able to quickly suppress and finish off such beasts. Su Ping didn’t have to do a thing.
Su Ping was almost invincible below the Celestial State.
He could do anything he wanted as long as Celestial State experts didn’t show up, or if he met with the top Ascendant cultivators who were listed in high rankings among all species!
Cultivation was put to a pause during those days, and he simply focused on training pets. He was concurrently thinking about alternatives for his cultivation to rise to the Ascendant State.
Su Ping thought it was good enough to have established eight worlds; it was time to consider how to rise to the Ascendant State. However, the road to the Ascendant State seemed to have been blocked.
The regular approach was certainly not feasible.
Then, what would the irregular approach be?
Whoosh!
Su Ping walked in the void; he gained a deeper understanding about void walking after mastering Dao Patterns, and could now even travel millions of kilometers with a single thought, just like Heather did.
Resurrecting randomly was no longer necessary thanks to his high speed traveling. That is, unless he was in a vast world like the Archean Divinity.
“Huh?”
Su Ping detected plenty of creatures in the sea, the moment he approached the sky right above it. There was also a powerful aura in the deepest parts, which was actually well-hidden and steady. It belonged to a Celestial creature.
There was a hazy blood fog above the sea. The fog seemed to have risen from the sea, carrying a bloody stench.
“Let’s see.”
Su Ping raised a hand, then gathered a sword aura that slashed at the sea.
The sword aura was like a lightning bolt splitting up the sky, ready to cut the sea apart!
He instantly sensed that the beasts at sea had noticed the sword aura. Many of them were fleeing in panic, and the weaker beasts didn’t have enough time to react.
As for the powerful aura deep in the bottom of the sea—it seemed to have been awakened.
Bang!
The seawater suddenly exploded, and a tongue-like, bright red whip darted out. There were sharp stings all over the tongue, which cut the sword aura apart.
The aura of laws was gathered above the sea, suppressing all the beasts swimming below. A deafening roar burst out of the seawater; it was still loud, even though it came from tens of thousands of meters deep in the sea. Due to the seawater blockage, the roar sounded even more ancient and heavy.
The sea was boiling, and a giant beast revealed itself, which looked like an enormous red sea urchin, except it was covered not in sharp stings but red tongues.
Su Ping smiled, then revealed his Primitive Chaos Clan body. His bones cracked, his body expanding to almost ten meters tall. Still, he wasn’t at all clumsy; he clenched his fist and gathered the power of chaos to form a battle ax and charge at the sea creature.
The behemoth was shocked by Su Ping’s level, and excited when he revealed the chaos body. This chaos creature will surely be nutritious!
A fierce battle took place soon after.
Su Ping was surrounded by Dao Patterns. He activated his eight small worlds and fought against the behemoth.
A lot of beasts exploded during their battle due to the aftershocks, even including some of the Ascendant beasts. They had probably never expected to be accidentally killed in battle when fighting someone whose level was lower than theirs!
The fierce battle lasted for a long time; Su Ping resurrected somewhere in the void. He had died, but it was basically due to a head-on clash.
Furthermore, the behemoth was forced to wield its small universe and smash his attacker to death!
Su Ping had been fighting with Dao Patterns and dealing with Celestial attacks with great ease before he used that!
Unfortunately, I cannot resist a small universe just yet…
Su Ping heaved a sigh. Small universes were much more condensed and powerful than small worlds; after all, there was a major level gap between them.
Roar!
The behemoth at sea roared in shock, having sensed that Su Ping’s aura was gone, which indicated that he was dead. However, he resurrected and reappeared!
It charged at Su Ping again, with a mixture of shock and fury; it would never let go of such good nutrition.
That being said…
Su Ping looked at the incoming behemoth with glittering eyes. Although it’s too strong for me, the gap between us isn’t that huge… If I were to fight a war of attrition, this would probably be the first time to ever kill a Celestial creature!”
“Little Skeleton!”
Su Ping instantly called out to the Little Skeleton and the Inferno Dragon so he could merge with them.
Boom!
Both the Little Skeleton and the Inferno Dragon arrived and entered Su Ping’s body like beams of light. An aura even more powerful rose in Su Ping’s body. His body grew in size, and the power of chaos emerged from within. He glanced at the young Chaos Beast, planning on merging with that one later.
Die!
Su Ping gathered energy to form a sword, then charged at the behemoth again.
This time, Su Ping’s attacks were even more powerful and his sword was even sharper. His sword aura contained Dao Patterns; he had figured out how to embed Dao Patterns into sword aura during their clashes. He would become more powerful.
Su Ping’s strength grew more and more. The knowledge he had learned from previous meditations was quickly digested and put to use.
The behemoth roared furiously, also noticing the brat’s changes. That made the creature furious; it started attacking with even more fierceness.
A long time later—the beast unleashed its small universe and smashed Su Ping again. Su Ping was killed on the spot.
Resurrect!
Su Ping resurrected, and then summoned the young Chaos Beast to merge with him.
Su Ping instantly felt a river of strength being infused into his body after merging with the young Star Lord Chaos Beast. Su Ping instantly felt that a river of strength was infused into his body; his power of chaos was significantly increased too. He felt he was twice as strong as when he merged with the Inferno Dragon!
After all, the young Chaos Beast was a creature from chaos. They shared the same bloodline.
“Die!”
Su Ping charged with his sword again.
