Astral Pet Store – Chapter 148
“What happened?” Fei Yanbo was a bit confused. Why did he feel fear mixed with violence in the minds of the Abyss Snake?
Where does this fear come from?
Is it because of this skeleton?
This skeleton is unusual. Even so, it was still only a skeleton!
Fei Yanbo was not too afraid of the Little Skeleton. It was not because he was a human, but because the Little Skeleton had chosen the Hell Serpent as a target.
This is a battle. Naturally, the strong should be dealt with first and then the weaker ones.
The bone bar in Little Skeleton's hand trembled. The sword seemed to let out a sad voice.
All of his killing intent, violence, and anger flowed into the bone blades.
While Fei Yanbo was in a trance, the Little Skeleton suddenly took action.
It suddenly disappeared on the spot and in a split second, the Little Skeleton had reappeared in the air right in front of the head of the Hell Serpent!
The Little Skeleton was only the size of this Hell Snake disciple.
Those dark eyes reflected the image of the Small Skeleton that was within reach. The Pupil Abyss Snake immediately shrank to the size of a needle eye.
Hissing!!
The Abyss Snake was engulfed by a deep fear of death. He lost his mind. The evil aura under his scales surged out. The Snake Abyss opened its mouth and at that moment, it spewed out a thick spray of poison that was poisonous enough to corrode even on the armored concrete in a rather short period of time!
However, just as the Abyss Snake spat out its poison, the Little Skeleton changed its position in the air like a ghost!
The Little Skull dodged the poison and then jumped into the air to get away from the big mouth of the Hell Snake. Then he walked to the back of the head of the Hell Serpent. Before anyone noticed, the short bone blade held by the Little Skeleton began to be surrounded by a dark aura; it grew to the size of a sword four to five meters long!
Poofs. Black blood spilled everywhere, gushing out from the mouths of the Hell Serpent.
The excruciating pain made Abyss Snake roll around. There was a wound on the mouth of the Hell Serpent that extended over a dozen meters, all the way to his neck!
It is said that the Abyss Snakes lived in the abyss of hell and they grew up in a harsh environment. That was why their scales were almost as strong as dragon scales!
Even armor-piercing bullets or rocket bullets could not tear through those scales, not to mention ordinary swords and knives!
However, at this moment, the scales had been cut as if they were pieces of paper. These wounds were over 10 meters long and deep enough to reveal flesh and bones. A large amount of black blood flowed out and the smell stung.
On the ground, Fei Yanbo was fixated on the spot.
Mind empty.
The fast speed of the Little Skull had shocked him. He was scared stiff by the time the Little Skeleton appeared in front of the Hell Snake in midair. Just then, that pitiful cry and huge wound made him wonder if he was dreaming or hallucinating.
How could a ruthless level nine Hell Serpent be injured by a skeleton?!!
Fei Yanbo was not the only one stunned. Dong Mingsong, Luo Guxue, and the others also fell silent. They realized how unusual this Little Skeleton was, but they never expected to witness this level of strength!
Right now, given his speed, strength, and evil aura, the Little Skeleton was no weaker than a ninth rank pet. The former might beat the latter, actually! People would have believed that the skeleton was a demon pet if not for its appearance!
Sitting next to Dong Mingsong were Zhou Yunchan, Luo Fengtian, and his friends. The word surprise was not enough to describe their feelings. They stared at the stage with their eyes wide open due to strong disbelief.
They thought they would definitely win and would make a great comeback when they saw that his opponent was a skeleton. However, this sudden change was beyond their wildest imaginations. Not only did that skeleton initiate the attack, it also injured the Hell Serpent in an instant.
The audience became silent.
This change of events caught them off guard. They simply stared blankly at this strange sight and their minds were unable to understand it.
On the stage, neither the Little Skeleton nor the Hell Serpent stopped to think. After the Little Skeleton was finished with this movement, it did not land on the ground. Instead, the Little Skeleton made a turn in the air again with dark energy surrounding it. A raging evil aura danced around the Small Skeleton and gradually, a tens of meters tall skeletal image appeared behind the Small Skeleton.
From this illusory image came a sense of overwhelming presence and was stronger than the beast king! This image was as if it came from another space and time as only a glimpse of this intimidating presence could be felt. This presence carried pressure as if the beast king had arrived!
The Little Skeleton approached the Hell Snake in a second. The first one raised his sword and slashed the head of the Abyss Snake.
The Hell Snake looked at the Little Skeleton, frightened, but he could not move and only his tail shook.
The hardest scales on his forehead were easily cracked by the bone blades. A crack appeared on his forehead with blood gushing out. The raging and overwhelming pressure forced the Hell Serpent to lower its head until it fell to the ground.
The image of the large skeleton behind the Small Skeleton quickly disappeared. The evil aura raging around the Little Skeleton dissipated slightly and its momentum decreased.
Su Ping looked as the image disappeared in shock. The skeletal image was not targeted at him but he had a clear feeling as he was in the middle of a fight. Could it be the legendary skeletal king?
The power that was shown seemed to come from the beast king!
If the image was more real, even the beast king would be blown away!
This was an effect that could not be achieved by the skill of deterrence!
“It looks like my little man benefited a lot from consuming the Skeleton King bloodline,” Su Ping said to himself. He was happy about this because the Little Skeleton was his first pet and was in the middle position of the sixth rank with below average talent, when in reality, it was, in fact, a pet, The Small Skeleton had shown combat ability approaching the top of the ninth rank!
When the Little Skeleton killed the Magical Corpse Beast during their first exploration, it had displayed a strength that was close to ninth rank!
Recently, Su Ping had not spent much time training the Little Skeleton other than asking him to consume the Skeleton King bloodline. This level of progress was beyond his expectations.
The Little Skeleton bloodline had changed; it was no longer an ordinary skeleton but a skeleton that possessed a mix of Skeleton King bloodlines. Otherwise, Little Skeleton's talent rank would remain above average.
After all, to find a common framework that could show the strength of a ninth rank top position when the skeleton itself was in the middle position of the sixth rank, the chances were one in a billion. Such a skeleton could be considered first class!
But the rank of the Small Skeleton was to compare it to all skeletons with the Skeleton King bloodline from the beginning of the chaos until now. Hence, Little Skeleton only ranked below average given its performance and combat capabilities.
The Abyss Snake had lost its fighting will. Su Ping understood that the result was obvious. He told the Little Skeleton to return.
The Little Skeleton was about to continue and kill this Hell Serpent but stopped after receiving Su Ping's message. The Little Skeleton turned around and returned to Su Ping.
The Little Skeleton learned how to flash to a place by itself when it ate the Skeleton King bloodline.
It was similar to Thunder Flash.
More precisely, Little Skeleton copied Thunder Flash.
Returning to the Chaotic Realm of the Undead, Little Skeleton fought the Lightning Rat side by side and they were both trained by Su Ping. The Lightning Rat used Lightning Lightning Lightning Lightning many times and it left a deep impression on the Small Skeleton.
While the Little Skeleton consumed the Skeleton King bloodline, it began to test and experiment. Using his own method, Little Skeleton understood the essence of “Flash” in Thunder Flash and thus could move at will.
The only difference was that the Lightning Rat used the power of thunder in “Thunder Flash” while the Small Skeleton used dark and undead power to realize this effect.
The Little Skeleton returned and looked at Su Ping, as if asking for something.
Su Ping understood that. He smiled, patted the Little Skull on his head, and then put the bead back into his mouth.
The undead energy in Little Skeleton's mouth surged and sent the bead into his skull at once. The beads began to spin as they were consumed. The mouth of the Little Skull was pulled to the side as if smiling. Su Ping felt how delighted the Little Skull was.
Su Ping looked at the Hell Serpent who was judged to have poor talent. This Abyss Snake would be considered an ordinary snake, neither good nor bad.
However, the Snake Abyss had been feared by the image of the Skeleton King that the Little Skeleton produced. It would leave a mark on Abyss Snake's mind. If those emotional scars were incurable, then the talent of the Hell Serpent would become worse, its abilities would decrease and its violent nature would cease to exist.
As the pet of the demon family, without sufficient violence, the Hell Snake was half-deformed. Su Ping did not feel sorry for the Hell Serpent. It had chosen the wrong master.
Su Ping opened the pet room so that the Little Skeleton could return inside and continue to consume the beads.
It was time for him to leave. He glanced at the protective screen around the stage and said to Fei Yanbo who was still in a daze, “Stop staring. Take your snakes back so they can disable the protective screen.”
