Astral Pet Store Chapter 706

Chapter 706 - Reinforcements

Whoosh!

The aura disappeared and reappeared hundreds of meters away, cutting forward without hitting anything until it ran out of momentum.

“What was that?”

The humanoid beast teleported away the aura that had almost cut its face. It looked at the source of the attack, only to discover that it had been a little creature!

Is it a low-rank skeleton?

Wait, it carries a strange vibe. What the heck is that?

The humanoid beast was rather shocked, as the tiny skeleton was unharmed and simply ignored its attack.

Its attack had fused the power of space, soundwave and mind. It was a great skill that the beast had invented. Why was it ineffective?

The Little Skeleton quickly flashed to Su Ping and stood in front of him with its saber raised high.

Sonic and mental attack?

It didn’t have any ears!

The sonic attack was destructive to living creatures because they had countless pores, organs and tissues in their bodies, which could be ripped apart by the reverberating soundwaves!

In comparison, the Little Skeleton’s body was simple and hollow. Also, its bones seemed no different from those of other skeletons, but if they were observed with a magnifier, one could see the strange patterns etched on the bones!

That was the Skeleton King’s body!

The soundwaves, which carried no special power, were almost ineffective to it and also produced very few reverberations!

As for the metal attack… It was even less effective!

The skeletons had a naturally weak mind; however, the Skeleton King’s family was different. They would fuse their minds with their bodies to avoid being controlled and enslaved by undead creatures!

Only in such a way could they distinguish themselves from the common skeletons and proclaim themselves kings!

The Little Skeleton’s attack was a major contrast when seeing the screaming humans. Back in the base city, everybody was still shocked by the humanoid beast’s attack when they noticed that the Little Skeleton had just counterattacked.

Everyone was stupefied when the picture was zoomed in and they saw the Little Skeleton more clearly!

Anyone with the least bit of knowledge about battle pets would’ve recognized it as a first-rank skeleton!

A mere first-rank battle pet?

Even the legendary warriors were screaming and moaning in that battle. How could such a low-level battle pet get a chance to fight?

Soon, someone realized that something was wrong with that skeleton.

How could any skeleton possibly fly?

“It’s… It’s the White Bone Demon!”

“Do you mean the one that showed up when the Tang family destroyed the Situ and the Wang families?”

“Yes, that’s the one!”

“Is it the legendary warrior’s pet? So, the Tang family is being supported by such a powerhouse. No wonder it’s so domineering!”

Many people from the major forces recognized the skeleton in shock; they felt lucky they weren’t in conflict with the Tang family.

Even if they were, they would have to give in later!

The advanced phase of the Fate State…

Su Ping shook his head to refresh himself. He gauged the wild beast’s level and was quite grim about it. That wild beast was so strong that the Inferno Dragon had only survived because of luck, and because the enemy had underestimated it and chose not to use its ultimate skill.

However…

It had already caused massive destruction without the ultimate skill!

Su Ping quickly looked around and changed his expression when he saw that Ye Wuxiu, Xue Yunzhen and the others were vomiting blood, while also having suffered heavy wounds. They couldn’t possibly help him, and would very likely die if the enemy repeated the previous attack!

“Fall back now, don’t follow me!” said Su Ping.

They would only be part of the collateral damages in a Fate State battle.

Ye Wuxiu, Qin Duhuang and the others were all shocked and reluctant. They were shocked after seeing that the Fate State wild beasts were far more horrifying than they thought, and reluctant since they could only retreat and observe the battle like the civilians.

Although reluctant, all of them retreated at a swift pace, as they would only drag Su Ping down if they stayed.

Boom~!

At that moment, an overwhelming beast tide was already advancing, taking the path where the humanoid beast had just cleared the traps.

However, the beast tide was quite widespread; the beasts on both flanks entered the defensive area and got killed by various sorts of traps.

Roar!!

After a loud dragon roar, dozens of enormous shadows rushed from the rear of the beast tide. They were all beast kings!

Dozens of Beast Kings running at the same time was quite a splendid and devastating sight.

Everybody held their breath when they saw that scene.

They had never seen such a spectacular view before.

Not even the movies could ever have such magnificent effects!

“Boy, what are you looking at?”

A creepy voice was heard, then the humanoid beast licked the sticky saliva on its cheeks and cackled. “Your body is tough, and I sense that another power is hidden inside your body. There’s also a delicious and tantalizing vibe in you…

“You must taste very good, don’t you?”

Su Ping quickly calmed down upon seeing the blatant gluttony in its eyes. He had many other things to worry about; he had to finish off that Fate State beast king first.

“Is that so? You look quite hideous; you must be awful to eat.” Su Ping wiped the blood on his lips and sneered.

Then, he sent a telepathic message to the Inferno Dragon, asking it to retreat and leave the battle to him.

The Inferno Dragon could no longer help him with that battle anymore. It might even be accidentally killed!

“Who told you you can leave?”

The humanoid beast rolled its eyes and waved its claws when the Inferno Dragon moved. The space was instantly torn apart, and the cracks were spread to reach the Inferno Dragon.

The Inferno Dragon roared; the space around it was locked, and it couldn’t flash into the distance. It also sensed that the killing intent had been aimed at it.

Massive lightning and fire energies surged out and crashed against the cracks.

After a booming sound, the energy composed by lightning and fire exploded, but it failed to prevent the cracks from spreading.

Su Ping’s eyes turned cold. He was about to take action, when the cracks suddenly stopped as if blocked by something!

Then, a gentle vibe suddenly arrived.

“The advanced phase of the Fate State? It must have been difficult for you,” said a warm voice; it belonged to a white haired middle-aged man in a white robe who walked out of the void and emerged in front of Su Ping.

The middle-aged man was followed by another person who was approximately the same age. His hair was also white, but he wore black clothes and had a more serious look.

Su Ping was stunned for a moment by their sudden appearance, then remembered who they were.

Those two people had shown up when he went and executed legendary warriors at the Tower. One of them was the Deputy Chief, and the other was the Chief.

Both of them were at the Fate State; the Chief had even reached the peak of the rank!

“What took you so long?” Su Ping was slightly relieved. But then he became angry and remembered Gu Siping. So he asked, “If you’re the Chief, why is Gu Siping the Tower Master?”

“I’m the second generation master, while he’s the third generation…”

Ji Yuanfeng—white clothes and white hair—smiled casually. “Brother Gu is the first-generation Tower Master’s student. The first Tower Master was heavily wounded and had to retire; he was too weak to work as the Chief, so I had to replace him. I was never interested in the job. So, I stepped down and handed the position to Brother Gu when he reached the Fate State.

“I was afraid that Brother Gu wasn’t familiar with his responsibilities, so I asked my student to help him.”

Su Ping was dazed for a moment. He looked at the Deputy Chief, who went back on his promise when Su Ping demanded the Soul Nurturing Grasses from the Tower.

“Your student is turning out to be almost as unscrupulous as Gu Siping.” Su Ping laughed with obvious derision.

“You!”

The Deputy Chief burst into fury when he heard that.

Ji Yuanfeng looked at him, which vaporized the Deputy Chief’s fury and made him lower his head.

“You said that the first-generation Tower Master was heavily wounded and retired. Is he still alive?” asked Su Ping. If he indeed was still alive, they would have another strong ally who would most likely be at the peak of the Fate State!

Ji Yuanfeng shook his head and replied, “I’m not sure. Brother Gu is probably the only person who knows the answer…”

Roar!!

Right before he could finish, a furious roar from the humanoid beast was heard.

The beast was outraged. These humans are chitchatting? Do they think I don’t exist?

“Oh, I almost forgot about you,” Ji Yuanfeng heard the roar and remarked, which made the humanoid beast roll its eyes in fury. It opened its mouth to let out another shriek!

Oh crap!

Su Ping’s expression changed in a flash; it was another widespread sonic attack!

This time the energy released by the beast would be even more massive than the last time!

“Now!”

When the humanoid beast was about to roar, Ji Yuanfeng waved his hands, and the creature seemed nauseated, as if it had swallowed a fly.

Its throat had been blocked by a spatial wall!

“Xiao Ye, come out,” said Ji Yuanfeng softly.

A giant vortex almost a hundred meters in diameter appeared next to him, and a horrifying aura was spreading out. Su Ping was stunned to find that it was a peak Fate State wild beast!

Caw!!

A sharp caw resounded, and then a black bird that looked like a giant falcon dashed out. The bird’s feathers were entirely black without any exception. The moment it came out, it swooped down on the humanoid beast and locked down the space around it.

The humanoid beast roared in fear and raised the sharp thorns all over its body like a provoked lizard. Once the giant falcon arrived, it directly jumped and waved its claws at the enemy.

The black falcon’s iron claws dug deeply into the humanoid beast’s shoulder, but the latter also took the chance to stab with the long horn behind its head at one of the falcon’s claws, making it bleed.

Su Ping shook his head upon seeing that.

That black falcon had a high level, but had limited battle experience.

It seemed that the Chief had never bothered to properly groom his battle pet, at all.

However, it was hard to groom peak Fate State battle pets on the Blue Planet.

After all, even opponents of the same level were rare, unless we considered the Deep Caves… However, there were too many Fate State enemies in the Deep Caves, and they might attack invaders collectively.

After seeing the wound on his pet, Ji Yuanfeng slightly changed his expression and cast a few astral spells. The black falcon became significantly stronger instantly, tearing a large piece of flesh off the humanoid beast’s shoulder, just before it pecked the enemy’s head.

The humanoid beast shrieked in fright. Several streaks of light emanated from its head, which were manifestations of its defensive skill. Right after the defense skill activation, another radiating light burst out and dazzled everybody.

Su Ping narrowed his eyes and sent out a telepathic thought when the radiating light burst out.

Whoosh!

The light was gone.

Ji Yuanfeng opened his eyes and still felt that they were stinging. The Deputy Chief also opened his eyes, which were bloodshot at the moment. He hadn’t closed his eyes fast enough and his eyes were hurting.

They were both surprised to see what was right before their eyes.

The humanoid beast was dead!

Its head had been grabbed in a tiny hand that had nothing but bones.

The Little Skeleton returned with the humanoid beast’s head and delivered it to Su Ping.

Su Ping was amused by the gesture. He said, “Drop it now. I don’t want anything this hideous. It’s not fit for me.”

The Little Skeleton was stunned for a moment. Then, it obediently threw off the head, which fell on the ground below the cliff, causing a massive pit.

Far in the distance, the black falcon was still clenching the humanoid beast’s headless body, with blood flowing out of its eyes. It stared at the Little Skeleton, obviously not expecting that the tiny creature would steal its prey!

Su Ping smiled. The Little Skeleton didn’t have biological eyes; it saw things with the nether flames in its eye sockets, which could detect the aura and heat of other creatures. The humanoid beast’s escape technique didn’t work on the Little Skeleton.

The Little Skeleton’s bone dagger, on the other hand, was the piece of a fang it had picked up from the Chaotic Realm of the Undead. It was quite sharp, and it seemed to be imbued with certain laws. So far, there was nothing that it couldn’t cut apart.

Of course, the items in his shop were the exception.

Those items belonged to the system and couldn’t be destroyed.

“Your battle pet…”

Ji Yuanfeng glanced at the Little Skeleton and the dagger on its hip. Then, he moved his eyes away with a bitter smile.

“Sorry for stealing your kill.”

“No need to apologize. By the way, what’s your current level?” asked Ji Yuanfeng curiously.

Last time he saw Su Ping, he felt that the latter was only at the seventh rank… Of course he didn’t believe that. He would rather eat his own shoes than believe that.

This time, when he met Su Ping again, he found that the young man had “set” his level to appear as being at the peak of the ninth rank.

He was unable to see through Su Ping’s disguise!

The guy was truly sophisticated!

“Can’t you see? The ninth rank.” Su Ping looked at him weirdly. He wasn’t hiding anything. Is the guy blind?

Ji Yuanfeng: “Hehe.”

He would be damned if he believed what the mischievous young man said!

“Never mind. Let’s take care of the beast tides and talk later.” Ji Yuanfeng looked at the marching army of the Deep Caves with cold eyes. “I’ll handle the Fate State ones; you two take care of the other beast kings. Are you fine with this?”

The Deputy Chief replied respectfully, “Yes.”

Su Ping waved his hands. “Don’t get too exhausted.”

Ji Yuanfeng dashed out towards the two Fate State wild beasts in the midst of the tide.

Upon seeing that, the black falcon released the lifeless body and glared at the Little Skeleton before it flew to position itself behind Ji Yuanfeng.

“Let’s go, Deputy Chief.” Su Ping chuckled.

The Deputy Chief raised his eyebrows. He found Su Ping’s tone rather uncomfortable.

After snorting, he summoned his battle pets and charged.

Very soon, powerful auras and shadows emerged in the sky. The Deputy Chief turned out to have two Fate State battle pets!

However, they were both in the early phase of the Fate State.

The other battle pets were all in the advanced phase of the Void State. Some were dragons and some were demons; all of them came from tough races.

Ji Yuanfeng, however, didn’t summon more battle pets, simply merging with the black falcon. Four black wings extended from his white robe, making him look like a fallen angel.

As he watched them go forward, Su Ping wasted no time merging with the Little Skeleton, then he commanded the Inferno Dragon and the Dark Dragon Hound to join the battle.

The people in the base cities behind the defense lines were all excited and shocked.

“Who are they? They’re so strong!”

“The beast that was showing off earlier was killed in the blink of an eye!”

“So strong! Are they the top legendary warriors? There’s hope for us!”

All the civilians and the major forces were too shocked to talk. They had seen Su Ping’s horrifying combat ability when he reinforced the east and cut apart a beast tide.

However, the two experts who had just arrived seemed to be even stronger than him!

There really was hope!

Back in the command room, Gu Siping narrowed his eyes when he saw Ji Yuanfeng on the screen. Coldness flashed in his eyes, but then he wore a big smile.

“Now that they’re here, the trouble in the south will be resolved in no time.” Gu Siping chuckled.

The advisors took a long breath of relief after seeing the smile on his face. They felt as if the clouds above their heads were thinner, and a hint of sunlight could be seen!

On the wall protecting the periphery.

Ye Wuxiu and the others were excited to see Ji Yuanfeng. Some of the Ocean State Legends, however, asked in confusion, “Who’s the man next to the Deputy Chief?”

Seeing that it had been Xiao Mo who asked the question, Ye Wuxiu smiled and said, “He’s the second-generation Chief of the Tower, and the Deputy Chief’s master. He trains in seclusion all the time, so it’s natural that you don’t know him. I had not heard anything about him in a long time, which had made me think that something had happened to him. I didn’t know that he was still alive after so many years…”

“Yes, so many years have passed…”

Jing Shen felt the same. He had only met the Chief once when he first went to the Tower. If he had missed the chance, he wouldn’t have known anything about the Chief.

“Let’s go and kill them all!” Xue Yunzhen roared and charged along with her battle pets.

The others looked at each other and laughed. All of them followed her.

“Xue the Tigress is still the toughest one!”

“That’s bullsh*t. How can she compare to me?”

“Hahaha. This is why you’re still single. You’ll never find a girl willing to marry you!”

“Get lost!”

They laughed and teased each other as they moved toward the beast tide.

On the other hand, the Void State warriors headed by Yuan Tianchen looked at each other in bewilderment, wondering why those lunatics didn’t focus on healing first.

“Stop gawking. Let’s join the battle!” a Void State old man said and rushed forward without caring about the others.

Yuan Tianchen took a deep breath and said, “Go!”

They marched out again, straight towards the beast tide.

Having three protectors leading the vanguard would allow them to take care of the lower-tiered wild beasts without worries.

In the depths of the beast tide.

The seven heads of Seven Sins—which stood in the middle of the breathtaking beasts—craned and saw what was going on. One of the heads shrieked, “It’s the Ji guy! The Ji guy!”

Another head roared, “Stop making noises!”

Another head said gloomily, “Let’s report this to the lord! The Ji Guy isn’t easy to deal with. He fought an evenly-matched battle against the Heavenly King of Good and Evil years ago. I’m no match for him.”

“Just get the hell out of here, coward!” snapped one of the heads.

“Who says I’m no match for him? I can blow him up!” cried another head.

“All of you, shut up!” the head with golden horns roared, immediately silencing the other heads. It then looked at the beast king that looked like a giant snail and said, “Inform the lord about the situation and ask him to send reinforcements. We can only delay him for fifteen minutes at best!”

The giant snail slowly turned its head and looked at Seven Sins, before it said, “I already informed the lord when the idiot jumped out. Can you make your other heads shut up? I’m having a headache because of all the noise.”

“What did you say, you smelly bug?” demanded one of the heads in rage.

“All of our heads belong together. If you tell us to shut up, you’re telling Seven Sins to shut up. Are you done living?” said another head sarcastically.

“You want me to shut up? I’m going to blow you up!” roared another head.

“I’ll blow you up, blow you up! I feel sorry for you…” repeated a different head.

The head with golden horns roared, “All of you, shut up!”

All the heads stopped talking and craned their necks to look for enemies.

Suddenly, one of the heads said in a low voice, “He’s here!”

In the next moment, the surrounding space trembled, and the ground collapsed deeply. Several tornadoes descended from high in the sky like spears!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Two of Seven Sins’ heads spewed ice and fire. An explosion was caused when the two kinds of energies were mixed, tearing apart those tornadoes!

Ji Yuanfeng emerged in the middle of that chaotic energy. He flapped his wings as he looked down at the two wild beasts on the ground.

“Seven Sins, it’s been a long time.” Ji Yuanfeng’s face was extremely cold. There were black feathers on his cheeks.

“Humph!”

Seven Sins snorted and took action.

The wild beast which looked like a giant snail slowly looked at its partner and heaved a sigh. The next moment, it suddenly rose and stood on its feet. It became taller and taller, until it knocked away the shell on its back!

There were four limbs underneath the shell and the beast looked like a frog.

Nearby, one of Seven Sins’ heads—which loved repeating—exclaimed in shock.”Wow! Wow! This shell doesn’t belong to it!”

“It’s so hideous! I can blow it up!” another head shouted.

“Coward! You live in someone else’s shell! I feel sorry for you!” said another head in disdain.

The wild beast that had just took off the snail’s shell ignored them. It simply held the shell it took off and filled the caparace with energy, which suddenly unraveled according to its patterns, transforming into a giant ruler!

That giant ruler was a hundred meters long and a dozen meters wide, with obvious degree scales!

“Finish him!”

While holding the giant ruler, the wild beast snarled and leaped up with a much higher speed, launching an attack at Ji Yuanfeng who was currently floating in midair.

What’s not to love about my new life after transmigrating into a Pet-centered world? There are mighty creatures that come in all shapes and sizes. They can either be cuddly companions, helpers in your daily life, daring scouts or strong fighters. Or all of the above. Not bad, huh? I have a family, but the fact is completely overshadowed by my younger sister. She thoroughly hates my guts, and she makes sure that I know this. Every. Single. Day. Did I mention that she’s disgustingly talented while I am a bottom feeder? A terribly handsome one at that. I have free rein to run the family business on my own. A small and quaint Pet Store. It should have been great if not for the fact that the previous owner of this body was born with ZERO affinity to handle Astral Pets… It wouldn’t be a proper transmigration without a gimmick or a system to pave my road to greatness, don’t you think? I have one, but I don’t know if I would be better off without it…
