Astral Pet Store – Chapter 578

“The smell of death is similar to that found in Ashura City.”

Su Ping had studied the Sins Cutter from Dusk in Ashura City.

Ashura is a place for the dead. There are no living beings, only ghosts, skeletons and creatures of the like. Dusk was the only living thing; he was once a servant of a god who later turned into Ashura by drinking the blood of former King Ashura.

Su Ping was naturally shocked to find such a strong scent of death in Valiant Academy, right in the heart of Longyang Base City.

He touched the dark lump with his finger.

The dark strands immediately scattered to the touch. Su Ping finger remained unharmed after making contact.

Since Dusk had asked him to drink King Ashura's blood, he had assimilated his power. That was why he could study the Slicer of Sins, from the very beginning. King Ashura was once the leader of that world. Therefore, the smell of death could not hurt him at all.

Let's see what's at the end of this road.

Su Ping made up his mind. The Dragon Tower was indeed strange; it was ridiculous that the academy would let its students practice and test their skills in such an evil and dangerous location. It is likely that the teachers and students have failed to see the secret of the Dragon Tower.

Otherwise, the academy would never allow its students to enter. They all came from influential families and were quite talented in their own right; losing one of them would be a great loss to the human king as a whole.

Why did he find the secret?

Su Ping was quite confused.

Is it because of my good looks?

Of course not.

But, Su Ping could not think of anything else that made him stand out.

The system?

Not likely.

Is it because of the Solar Bulwark or the energy of King Ashura?

Su Ping thought those were things that no one in the Valiant Academy had.

After all, he obtained the Solar Bulwark from the system and it was a long-lost skill.

As for King Ashura's energy, it was not something from the Blue Planet. King Ashura's family was large, and they had a Star Rank bloodline. Each of their members would be able to reach the Star Ranking after some training.

Su Ping decided not to discuss the matter.

He would immediately kill the insects every time they crawled out of the flesh and blood walls.

At that moment, he could barely kill the insect with his own finger.

Insects are bigger and their shells are harder in that place. They were very similar to the beast king. Or, the weaker one than before was like a child, while the one that was an adult.

He began to use the sword that Dusk had given him.

It was a Star Rank sword. The energy previously contained in the sword was enough to destroy space and time; its power was already drained but its sharpness remained the same.

Even so, Su Ping still found that killing the insect with a sword was not easy. He felt that the insect was even harder than a diamond!

If this was a place of cultivation, the insect could be quite a good training partner.

Su Ping killed his way forward. While those adult insects are capable of fighting like legendary pet fighters—because they have very sharp claws and hard shells—Su Ping is not a weak fighter. He held the sword tightly in his hand.

Su Ping was getting tired from the continuous battle. However, he realized his excitement that he could still talk to them, even though he was unable to call them to fight.

Moreover, he could utilize the energy of his battle pets!

The titled battle pet warrior could also use energy synchronization! He could utilize the strength of his battle pets while they stayed in the contract room!

His fighting pets could give him constant energy.

Of course, his battle pets were unable to give him all their energy. There will be some losses in the transmission as well. Even so, Su Ping could still use the energy of the Little Skull, to ensure that he would always be in his prime condition. After all, the Little Skeleton was inside the contract space and did not require any energy.

Bang out! Bang out! Bang out!

He killed dozens of insects. He noticed that the corrosion and decay in the walls were getting worse. His flesh and blood were quite fresh at first, but the colors on his walls were dull. The air was filled with a foul and disgusting smell.

Su Ping was suddenly curious about what was inside the rotting meat wall.

He found a place and cut through the meat wall with his sword.

The stench grew even more viscous as he entered further. Lucky for Su Ping, he had spent a lot of time in a harsh environment. Therefore, he was getting used to it after the initial stage of discomfort.

He felt once again at the cultivation location.

Are those things bones? And it... Is it a blood vessel?

Su Ping walked forward on the meat wall, walking with his sword. To his surprise, the wall did indeed look like flesh, with decaying bones and blood vessels. The smell of deep blood spread everywhere. Su Ping cut the meat again. He found himself in another hallway. It turned out that he had walked around and returned to where he had started. Is this the Dragon Tower or am I in a strange place? Su Ping wondered. He thought of the dragon bone tower on Longtai Mountain. It had been left on the side for the dragon king to choose the beneficiary of his inheritance. Is that place the same?

Only Su Ping could not feel the test. That insect could have killed a legendary fighting pet fighter.

After all, legendary battle pet warriors were forbidden to take out their battle pets, or join them. They would not be able to win against those insects just by relying on themselves.

What the legendary fighting pet warriors know best is that of joining their fighting pets, which can increase their strength over time.

The demonic things became less and less and so did the insects, but the smell of death grew stronger. What is that sound? Su Ping continued forward. He heard something suddenly, and focused his attention on listening. The further in front of him, the clearer the voice was.

Is that ... some kind of roar?

Some ancient beasts growled. The voice did not sound clear. It still sounded as if it was located far, far away.

Moreover, Su Ping heard a muffled sound, similar to something colliding.

The voice was getting clearer and clearer as well.

“... The world may end. On behalf of the Killer of Heaven..”.

Suddenly, coming from the general direction of the voice, there was something shouting from a great distance.

The screams penetrated through space and time. Although Su Ping had met many terrifying creatures, he was stunned by the shout.

Is someone there?

Su Ping gazed into the distance but he did not feel any breath.

He was sure those words were not spoken to him.

He felt it was like an audio clip left behind in space and time, playing on a phonograph. It's not someone who talks there in reality. It was an echo in space. But just how powerful was the creature to prevent its cry from being erased over time?!

Su Ping suddenly felt fear. He doesn't want to go any further.

However, he looked back and only saw darkness.

There's no turning back.

After a moment of silence, Su Ping decided to move forward.

The number of insects is decreasing. A new evil being swarmed out from the decaying flesh and blood; the evil creature was huge, far more powerful than Su Ping had ever seen before.

Those evil creatures have real bodies. They are not just illusions anymore.

Finish that!

The explosion!

He poured Divine Energy into the movement. The beam of sword light destroyed all the evil beings in front.

No one will stop him!

Nah!

Whooshing sound!

Su Ping ran over, sword in hand.

He could hear the demonic whispers, and he could once again hear the roar from a distance. It was a roar of anger.

“... The world could end.

stop..”

Those words of anger stimulated Su Ping. He could no longer control his killing intent. He's been provoked.

Only the words themselves made him angry. He could not even begin to think what kind of power was within those words.

The explosion!!

Other evil creatures died. Su Ping suddenly saw the end of the road.

It's finished!

It was a wall of rotting flesh. Whooshing sound!

Su Ping cut through the meat wall, again and again, giving up. With a bang, the meat wall finally gave up.

As he opened the wall, a foul smell and breath came out as if he had finally found a way out.

At the same time, Su Ping noticed that his growl was getting further and the sound was getting lower. He had heard a shrill call and the next second, the scene changed. The world he knew disappeared before his eyes. Only a dazzling beam of sword light would reach it. Su Ping had never seen anything like it. He felt as if something was cutting him and he was dying. However, the next second, he saw the sword light beam stop. Dark blood spilled. A finger was cut off and fell off.

All views disappear with the whusss. Su Ping discovered that he was still standing in the hallway. He could see the blue sky from the piece.

The heavens?

Su Ping was surprised. He stepped towards the piece. He crawled out and saw the moss around the hole, as well as the black iron chains that were nailed to the ground.

The illusion he saw flashed in his eyes again. He couldn't help but look around. Soon after, he could see many small spots on the ground far below. It was .. Han Yuxiang, Xu Kuang, and the other students here. She ... at the top of the Dragon Tower?! Su Ping could not believe it. I passed through the hallway and arrived at the top?!

“What..?”

Inside the Dragon Tower, just outside the black door of the first floor, the stenographer Sen and his stenographer friends were stunned in silence as they peered in front of their devices. That signal went from level 20 to level 33!

The device must be broken!

It must!

The stenographers returned to their sane minds. They could see the confusion together in each other's eyes.

The device never breaks. Since they became stenographers. “I, I have to report to Vice Principal,” Sen said in a hurry.

“Hah?”

Han Yuxiang sensed something as she stood in front of the Dragon Tower. He looked up due to his instinct to see the top of the tower. He thought he had heard a scream there. There's also something evil coming down from up there.

Han Yuxiang could not believe his eyes. He focused his eyes…

He saw someone standing there.

Actually, fly there.

Su Ping?!

Isn't he in the tower?!

Han Yuxiang was confused.

He had seen Su Ping enter the tower with his own eyes and he had been waiting there. There's only one exit. When did Su Ping get there?

Mo Fengping noticed the strangeness of his teacher, so he looked up as well, he had the same expression on his face immediately after.

Whooshing sound!

Su Ping flew.

He noticed that the smell of evil and death was trying to reach him. Some evil beings smirked at him but they did not approach him, as if afraid of something.

Su Ping frowned. The evil beings found in that place were close to the Void State but they did not possess many special skills. Still, the stench of death around those evil creatures was enough to scare people to death. Evil creatures can even create beautiful illusions to confuse people. Are they afraid of the light?

Su Ping was surprised.

Those evil creatures lingered in the shade. It was amazing for the evil creature to continue to fear the sun.

The sun cannot hurt people unless someone is sunburned.

If the evil creature was afraid of the sunlight, then he could put something on the wound to stop them from coming out.

Wait for. I don't think it has anything to do with light. They were afraid to go out, at all. Su Ping then noticed that one of the evil creatures came out of the shade but nothing happened.

After all, the evil creature was not afraid of him.

They fearlessly rushed towards him.

I left a hole here. If those evil creatures came out, the academy, the entire Longyang Base City and even the Subcontinent District would be destroyed.

Su Ping frowned.

He has created a huge mess.

The number of evil beings within was many; some were close to the Void State. The academy will see the end of its time if they come out.

I wonder how much the academy knows about the secrets of the Dragon Tower. I have to ask them. Ah, so many problems.

Su Ping was getting impatient. He went there to find his sister. Not only had he not found it when it happened. He didn't like the academy at all. Of course, he could not allow himself to let those evil creatures and insects out.

He would not go as far as wanting something like destroying the world just because he had lost his sister.

Whooshing sound!

Su Ping flew. That evil creature can't get out for now. He could go and ask Han Yuxiang first. At the very least, he had to tell someone, or it would be too late to find a cure.

Su Ping looked back. The peak is huge. Suddenly, he saw the illusion again.

Swords. Fingerless. That shout.

Su Ping thought of the impossible.

He flew away from the top.

After moving for thousands of meters, Su Ping looked back.

Blood freezes.
