午夜想想爱

Most of the cultivation sites he had picked this time were related to divinities.

He had promised Dusk—who had recently taught him the Sin Cutter—to find that goddess for him.

The divinities usually enjoyed complex environments that were rich in many elements. Apart from creatures like the Little Skeleton, all the other creatures could be trained in such divinities.

One day passed in reality.

But Su Ping had spent 10 days in a divinity realm.

The four battle pets he had taken with him had grown to have above-average aptitude; a few more days and the four battle pets’ training would be completed.

The Divine Energy is fusing better and better with the Sin Cutter.

Su Ping had been absorbing Divine Energy during the past ten days, and was also attempting to use the Divine Energy when he performed the Sin Cutter attack to increase the strength of the latter.

It was a good idea, but he didn’t get off to a good start.

The Ashura energy repelled the Divine Energy. The two opposing types of energy had torn him apart before he even drew his sword.

After dozens of deaths and many attempts during the ten days, finally, he was able to add some Divine Energy when he used the Sin Cutter.

Just like he had hoped, the skill became more powerful than before. But he would have to make more attempts to improve upon the integration.

The upgrade had been completed by the time he returned to his store.

Su Ping pulled up a visual of the entire store area.

The 3-D model of the store appeared in his mind; the extra properties he had purchased before had officially become part of the store.

Almost all the places on that side of the street were his.

His store covered up a much larger area than before.

The storefront was as large as a ballroom. The spacious lobby could house hundreds of people inside. The ceiling was over a hundred meters high. Even the giant battle pets could stand there easily.

It was a magnificent building.

Su Ping also saw a display room for pets on sale or available for rent. The display room occupied almost half of the entire space.

All the pets for sale and for rent would be placed on some display stands with introductions about them on the side; this would aid the customers to easily determine which one they liked.

The total number of nursing pens has increased to 40 from the previous 20, and the spots in the storage space were increased to 80. I can take 120 pets in total.

The nursing pens can be upgraded to advanced nursing pens. Su Ping walked around the store, which had become more sumptuous.

He pulled up the system’s shop in his mind.

The system’s shop was currently at the third level as well, and he was able to see six items displayed on one page. “Black Tortoise Shield (elementary divine skill): one million energy points.”

“Blood of Feather Dragon (material): 0.62 million energy points.”

“Advanced beast-catching ring (enhanced version): half a million energy points.”

Su Ping’s eyes glowed. The first item was an elementary divine skill!

Even though it was an elementary one, that was a divine skill nonetheless!

Most of the items in the shop would cost hundreds of thousands of energy points and the cheapest one would cost two hundred thousand energy points. “The odds of catching a beast king with this enhanced advanced beast-catching ring is 30%!”

Su Ping eagerly bought the ring.

The original advanced beast-catching ring merely had a 10% chance of capturing a beast king!

When he was down on his luck, he could even use ten rings and would not even get one beast

king.

The enhanced version of the ring would cost a lot more, but the odds were much greater. According to Su Ping’s experience, if he could hurt a beast king first and then use the enhanced version of the ring, he believed that the odds of capturing it could be increased to 50 or 60%!

That would be amazing!

After all, the beast king could be at the Ocean State or even the Fate State! He could even capture one at the peak of the Fate State with the enhanced version!

This is awesome. Maybe, I can tell Joanna to send someone to beat up a beast king at the peak of the Fate State next time I go to the Demigod Burial. I can sell it for several hundred million if I can capture one and sell it here! What a great deal!

Su Ping was excited.

He couldn’t sign a contract with a pet at the peak of the Fate State. He would have to put it on the side for the moment, or sell it and only those at the Void State would have such a pet.

I’m going to take the Black Tortoise Shield as well.

He didn’t even hesitate. Since he had more than 80 million energy points left, spending one million was nothing.

Soon, a golden glow appeared in his mind. The system was asking if he wanted to take the skill right away.

Su Ping couldn’t transfer the skills he bought from the system’s shop to anyone else, unless he were to teach someone verbally after having mastered the skill.

“Yes.”

Soon after, a gush of information swarmed into Su Ping’s mind.

In a daze, Su Ping saw a huge Black Tortoise standing on the ground and there were strange patterns on its shell, seemingly describing mysterious rules.

The patterns grew and grew until they submerged Su Ping.

He came back to his senses the next second.

He could still see some of the lines and patterns. He thought he had learned something, but he didn’t understand a thing, all at the same time.

He subconsciously began to mobilize his astral powers, which moved along a strange line in the vortexes.

Bzzing!

All of a sudden, a golden glow burst out from him. The strange patterns he had seen on the Black Tortoise had been inscribed on him. The golden glow formed a shield.

As he stared at the shield, he tried to land a punch on himself.

His fist was bounced off and the shield remained undamaged.

Su Ping was able to tell that there was a cycle of astral powers between the shield and himself. He had used quite a lot of strength in that punch and yet it didn’t damage the shield at all. He had ascertained that the shield would at least be able to fend off a strike from a beast

king.

Amazing!

While he was merely at the titled rank, he was already able to raise a shield with his astral powers, one that was strong enough to withstand the strike of a beast king. I’ll find out the shield’s limit in the test room.” Su Ping said to himself. He was able to tell that the shield was much stronger than his current perception. But before that, he would have to ransack the system’s shop.

Apart from the skill and the beast-catching ring, Su Ping could use other items but wasn’t in dire need of them. For example, the dragon blood could covert an impure dragon bloodline into a pure one of the Feather Dragon species.

It was said that Feather Dragons had Fate State bloodline and that there was a chance that a Feather Dragon could develop further and reach the Star Rank.

But that was just a legend. The odds of succeeding in reality was small. “I wonder how many energy points I can get if I sell it.”

Su Ping was curious.

“The selling price is the same as the price you pay here,” the system answered.

“Have you finished your maintenance?”

“I’m fully rested, to be precise.”

“Did you just say that I will make as many energy points as I spend?” “Indeed.” “...You’re really making it hard for a middleman!”

Su Ping was speechless. He couldn’t make any money on that.

But I can still buy the dragon blood and sell it to some repeated customers. I won’t make money but that’s a favor for those repeated customers, Su Ping pondered.

After taking another look at the balance of his energy points, Su Ping bought the dragon blood as well.

For the moment, he didn’t need the other items so he chose to refresh the page.

He would have one free chance to refresh everyday.

Six new items popped out; no divine skills this time. There were mainly strange materials and food.

“Trapping Rope: 0.8 million energy points. “It can trap a beast king’s soul, take it away from the creature’s body, thus immobilizing the beast king.”

The effect of the item amazed Su Ping. It was a rope with the power to disable all beast kings.

Of course, the stronger the beast king was, the faster the recovery would be.

The rope could freeze an Ocean State beast king for eight hours. But that rope would only last for a minute with Fate State beast kings!

That rope is not effective for Star Ranked creatures. I can fight average Fate State beast kings easily, given my current strength. But if the rope can help me detain a beast king at the peak of the Fate State for a minute, I can win!

Su Ping’s eyes glowed. The item was an outstanding piece.

Buy it!

Minus 0.8 million energy points.

He paid and got the rope. Su Ping checked his storage space. A golden rope was lying within.

Su Ping decided to refresh the shop again.

But this time, it would cost him one million. He could afford it since he had enough energy points.

“Dream Inducer: 0.32 million energy points.

“The target’s memory can be corrected, making the target regard subsequent experiences as a dream. The target can also forget events and related memories during that period of time.”

Su Ping didn’t know what to say about that.

Dream Inducer. It was just a fancy name for knockout drops. I cannot believe you, system.

How dare you sell this!

Pooh!

Minus 0.32 million energy points.

Su Ping saw the word “sold” in the slot. “System, you’re charging way too high for this. You’re asking for 32 million astral coins for this potion. Such a potion would only be sold for a few hundred bucks on the black market.”
