Chapter 218 - A Talk
Chapter 218 A Talk
After countless battles, protecting Su Ping was a directive embedded in the Inferno Dragon’s genes!
Even at the risk of its own life!
Roar!!
A trail of flames was discharged toward the girl, much like a column made of lava. At the same time, the Inferno Dragon charged forward and placed itself in front of Su Ping. Then, the Inferno Dragon was halved from its chest. The Inferno Dragon’s hardest dragon scales were unable to stop that golden blade for one bit before it was cut open!
Su Ping was startled. He didn’t expect that this girl could be this horrifying.
Still, his two pets had bought him some time. Astral powers were surging inside him. Thanks to the Star Prism, his baseline astral powers at the upper position of the fourth rank were catapulted to the intermediate position of the seventh rank. Adding the leverage provided by the Solar Bulwark at the final moment, Su Ping managed to dodge to the side. Boom!!
The ground in the garden caved in deeply.
Su Ping felt something strange on his arm. He lowered his head to look, only to find he had lost his left arm!
“I didn’t mean…” Su Ping screamed in misery. He didn’t want to die a meaningless death which would cost him 120 energy points!
He was speechless.
What was this about? He was going to die right upon arrival and this death was going to be pointless.
“Good, you low-life duplicate, mixing up with the dirty undead being and a dragon slave. No wonder you belong to the mean, inferior race. Go to hell!!”
The girl was furious. She waved her fingers and again, two rays of golden energy dashed out.
The Little Skeleton, which had been cut open, quickly reassembled its body and pressed forward again.
Su Ping revived the Inferno Dragon that had just been killed on the spot. Luckily, reviving pets was free. Otherwise, he would never be able to afford this training.
Roar!
The Inferno Dragon had yet to figure out what was happening as it had been brought back to life when it felt the killing intent that Su Ping had cast. This was to help the Inferno Dragon engage in the battle as soon as possible. “What?”
The girl was startled to see the Inferno Dragon coming back to life on the spot.
She would not find it strange that the skeleton could come back to life. After all, that was the skill of that kind of dirty being. She did not, however, expect that this dragon could be brought back to life, and it was not an illusion.
Being a member of the god race, she had a clear sense of life energy. She had registered how the Inferno Dragon had died, including its soul.
Besides, as the dragon was coming back to life, somehow, she picked up a clue of some horrifying energy, as if time and space were trembling…
But the being that could affect time and space had gone still since a long time ago. She was no longer possessed by anger; doubts took over in its place.
At the moment, the Inferno Dragon had once again put itself in front of the golden blades and again the Inferno Dragon was cut into two pieces.
The Little Skeleton had dashed to the girl and was about to cut her face with its bone blade.
The girl came back to her senses. She saw the bone blade that was about to land on her face. All of a sudden, she picked up some residual energy of a threatening presence inside the bone blade. That energy was hidden deep within. This piece of bone seemed to have belonged to some horrific creature. But the threatening presence was long gone from the bone.
The girl was appalled. This skeleton was not something she could belittle. Besides, she had a faint sense that there was a horrifying voice roaring inside the skeleton and that voice seemed to have originated from the skeleton’s blood, which was astonishing.
The girl raised her hand, slapping the Little Skeleton away, and grabbed its bone blade.
She observed it and realized the bone blade was made of a bone fragment.
She tried to cut herself with the blade. A drop of blood that was golden in color dripped down. The blade could hurt her!
This shocked the girl. She threw a glance at the Little Skeleton that had already reassembled after she crushed it and the Inferno Dragon that had recovered. The astonishment in her eyes was even more prominent. Eventually, she shifted her focus to the young human being.
“Who are you?”
Su Ping was relieved to see that the girl finally stopped her attacks. He produced a forced smile, “I didn’t do any of it on purpose.”
Su Ping’s words reminded the girl of that previous incident. She blushed as she said angrily, “That is not my question. Who are you? How did you get in here? Tell me the truth or you’ll end up in a living hell!”
The words “living hell” worried Su Ping.
He wasn’t afraid of dying but he was afraid of being imprisoned. That would waste his time training
That being said, given his powers, he could kill himself, sudden and swift.
Besides, with the help of the Little Skeleton, suicide was easy…
Well… that shouldn’t be a thing to be proud of.
Su Ping had experienced many fights against powerful creatures. From the girl’s strikes, Su Ping estimated that she might have a power on par with beast kings. If she were equal to a king of kings, then she wouldn’t need to take any actions. Just one look could have imprisoned and crushed him.
That was why Su Ping didn’t choose to run away at once. He couldn’t defeat beast kings but he could strive to kill himself.
“Well, do you belong to the god race?” Su Ping asked the girl curiously.
“Of course,” The girl said without thinking, “Answer my question first.”
Su Ping was amazed by the answer. This girl was of the god race. He was surprised by the looks of gods that only existed in legends. They looked almost like humans did… except for their size.
This girl was a bit too “sturdy.”
Also, Su Ping thought that gods should be supreme beings. However, this girl only had a beast king’s power level. That was to say, gods weren’t all that formidable.
“What is going on in that head of yours!” The girl bellowed since Su Ping had not said anything for a while.
Su Ping came back to his senses. “Well, your questions are complicated and it will be difficult for you to understand my answers. To put it simply, I was teleported here from another world. Do you believe me?” “Of course,” the girl answered. That was not the answer Su Ping was expecting.
“This is my garden. Aside from teleporting here directly, there’s no other way that you, a vulnerable being, could have come here unless you’re a bug grown out of the weeds in my garden.” The girl sneered.
Su Ping was speechless. He mumbled, “But my point is that I am from another world, not the fact that I was teleported here…”
“What’s so strange about that?”
The girl said in contempt. She must be very informed. “The universe is infinite. Apart from the Central Divinity where we stand, there are many smaller worlds around us, inhabited by lower beings like you. Tell me. Which small world are you from? Who sent you here? What for?”
Su Ping was taken aback.
The education gods received was different from what humans received.
She could readily accept such an outrageous matter. If he were to tell anyone on the blue planet, they would think he had gone nuts.
Keeping the shock to himself, Su Ping said, “You just mentioned the Central Divinity. Have you been to the Archean Divinity?”
From the introduction of this Demigod Burial, Su Ping had learned that this site had been around for countless years, with a history longer than that of the blue planet. But this girl didn’t appear to have lived for that long.
“Archean Divinity?”
The girl was surprised to hear this. As such, she couldn’t help but give Su Ping a closer look. “I didn’t think that an insignificant being such as you would know about the Archean Divinity. Hmm! But you know too little. The Archean Divinity was closed off a long time ago. No creature outside is allowed entrance. If I could go to the Archean Divinity, even for a couple of days, I could have killed you with one look!”
“Closed off?” Su Ping was baffled.
He recalled when he was looking at the list of cultivation sites.
The Archean Divinity was not closed off.
Only the admission price was too high.
On the other hand, the girl didn’t seem to be lying. Either the Archean Divinity had opened up again and she didn’t know, or the system’s access path was different from the usual one.
“That is to say, this Demigod Burial is the Central Divinity that you have just mentioned. To be worthy of this name, this area must be huge, right?” Su Ping questioned.
“Demigod Burial?”
The name puzzled her.
