Astral Pet Store novel - Chapter 1433

Their members were summoned back. Are they afraid that someone would attack their base while the Ancestral supreme-ruler is away?

Su Ping felt tempted. The idea of attacking their base did occur to him, but he soon dropped it. After all, the Rain Clan would probably not be so stupid as to fight him outside of the barrier after the previous incident.

The Rain Clan’s barrier was personally set up by the Ancestral supreme-ruler Not even Su Ping could break it.

I must return and meet the Chaos Perception Dragon to let him know about this. The Ancestral supreme-ruler must be conspiring with other Ancestral supreme-rulers to hunt him down and retaliate against me.

Su Ping was in no mood to stay anymore. He left the city and took to the sky. He tapped into the Original Dao World and located the borderlands where the Chaos Perception Dragon lived.

The borderlands were extremely vast, containing millions of mountains and billions of swamps. An endless amount of ferocious beasts lurked there, making it both a heaven and a hell for explorers.

Su Ping went to the area’s east side and moved straight ahead. Once he found the edge of the region, there were more ferocious beasts than there were in other places. One of the Divine Eyes—the sources of supreme power —was there. Divine power flowed out from it endlessly.

Su Ping had gained his supreme-rulerly constitution in one of the Divine Eyes; however, back then he was too weak to see through their mysteries.

That particular Divine Eye was home to the Chaos Perception Dragon and a great cultivation land.

Su Ping reached the Divine Eye soon after. Hardly had he arrived when he sensed the dangerous beasts lurking there. Enormous bones were piled up on the mountains, left exposed in the wilderness for countless years. Their owners used to be as strong as supreme-rulers when they were alive.

Our hero preferred not to waste time dealing with those ferocious beasts—even though he was no weaker than the supreme-ruler Emperor beasts, and he could handle anything except for the Ancestral supreme-rulers. However, in order to see the Chaos Perception Dragon sooner, Su Ping took out one of its scales, and the imbued aura was spread out. All the creatures would avoid such presence.

Su Ping moved forward completely unhindered. He soon saw the Chaos Perception Dragon, which was still lying on the ground. In front of its mountainous body was the young Chaos Beast, currently enveloped in purple light. All the supreme power was rushing into its body. There was also a stream of pure supreme power from the Divine Eye in the distance, which looked like a golden river.

As the energy polished and filled the young pet, its aura became denser. It was like an ocean where a tide was raging; the violent power in its body could be detected.

Su Ping approached quietly, trying not to disturb the young Chaos Beast. He said to the Chaos Perception Dragon, “Senior, the Ancestral supreme-ruler that fought you might come again with other Ancestral supreme-rulers.”

The grand creature gave Su Ping an indifferent gaze, his pupil looking like the sun hanging in the sky. “Where did you learn the news?”

“I investigated and found out,” Su Ping replied.

The Chaos Perception Dragon withdrew its gaze and focused its attention on the young Chaos Beast again. “It doesn’t matter. They came to trouble me once, but I knocked them away. I didn’t kill them because they ran too fast, not because I couldn’t…”

After hearing its confident declaration, Su Ping smiled bitterly. “In any case, senior, you should be careful. If they’ve already come once, they must be aware of how strong you are and they would definitely come prepared this time.”

“So what if they’re prepared? When you’re strong enough, no matter how well-prepared someone is, they’re just mobsters if they don’t exceed the limit of your strength.” There was pride and disdain in the dragon’s voice.

Su Ping thought for a moment and realized that the answer made sense. However, an Ancestral supreme-ruler could really suppress other Ancestral supreme-rulers easily?

“There’s nothing to worry about. Just go and cultivate. Don’t waste your talent,” said the Chaos Perception Dragon.

Su Ping stayed silent. He looked at the young Chaos Beast and said goodbye.

He summoned the Dark Dragon Hound and his other pets, and went looking for more supreme-ruler Emperor beasts so they could spar with them.

“Senior, can I go to the Divine Eye one more time?” asked Su Ping. “I want to see what’s in the deepest part.”

“You’d better not go inside.”

What the Chaos Perception Dragon said next astonished Su Ping. “I allowed you to enter because you were too weak and you could only enter the shallow area. You’re now strong enough to enter deeper regions. I fear that it’ll cause unnecessary trouble. This Divine Eye… is an artifact.”

“An artifact?”

Su Ping felt dazed. “It’s not some sort of natural phenomenon of this world?”

“Ha.” The Chaos Perception Dragon laughed, as if amused by Su Ping’s naive remark. It said coldly, “This would have been a desolate world without those artifacts. All right. Don’t think about it until you become an Ancestral supreme-ruler; you’re too weak to know the secret right now.”

Su Ping became even more curious as he heard this. He said, “You said that I would cause unnecessary trouble. Is it possible that the artifact is… alive?”

“That depends on your definition of life.” The Chaos Perception Dragon’s words were rather sophisticated.

“Plants are lives, stones are lives, the universe is a life, and some natural phenomena you see are also lives, such as wind, cloud and lightning!” said the Chaos Perception Dragon indifferently, “If you define life in such a way, this artifact can be considered a living creature.”
