Unable to Cultivate, I Can Only Raise Soul Pets

Chapter 503



503 Did They Forget?

Eastern War Zone, North River Continent, Forest Academy.

In the middle of June, it was supposed to be a scorching summer. However, in the school, countless students were wearing thick dark clothes.

Even many fire attribute soul pets were equipped with many special isolation soul devices.

Otherwise, it would be corroded by the cold air and decrease its cultivation and life.

A steel-like mechanical warship floated in the air. The pure ice-colored body covered the entire Forest Academy.

An oppressive atmosphere spread throughout the school.

In the center of the school, there was a long queue. The students rubbed their hands as they surged in behind the long queue.

“Sister Xiaoluo, is this another recruitment?”

In the long queue, Wang Ka sighed.

“Why are you asking if you know?” Bai Xiaoluo retorted angrily.

“Sister Xiaoluo, you have a lot of information… Do you think our war zone’s three northern continents have already fallen under the cold wave?” Ludi could not help but ask.

Bai Xiaoluo tightened her clothes and pointed at the moon blade attached to her wrist, “What else? My family’s business is about to go bankrupt… Sigh, we’re still doing fine. Half of the neighboring war zone has already fallen.”

“But I heard that the number of spots given to our school by the military has decreased greatly this year.” Wang Ka could not help but ask.

In the first year of the cold wave, the temperature in the war zone decreased drastically. The soil changed and countless crops froze to death.

That year, the war zone urgently recruited students from the agriculture major and Contract Soul Masters in related fields to repair the soil.

That year, the prices of various soul plant resources, agriculture, and crops on the market increased greatly. Everyone was in a panic.

Fortunately, the war zone was controlled by the central government. The cold wave did not advance quickly, and the soil changed by the cold air was quickly repaired under the lead of an agricultural soul master. At the very least, it could maintain a normal farming operation.

But the next year…

“There are indeed fewer…” Bai Xiaoluo whispered, “Because there’s no way to change it anymore. The speed of the cold wave has increased, the people of the three continents have retreated, and the cold line has quickly begun to close in on us.”

“Perhaps in another year, the North River Continent will also have to be abandoned…”

“Therefore, there’s no sign of an agricultural soul master anymore. Instead, it’s a sign… that the volunteer army is going to help guard the cold line.”

“With your strength, I think it’s better not to go.”

Bai Xiaoluo glanced at the two of them.

The three of them looked at each other and then at the warship in the air.

Transcendent mechanical soul pet, Cloud Sky Mothership, Model Ice Snow.

Actually, they had never seen or heard of such a mothership.

They also didn’t know that the war zone had developed such a terrifying mechanical soul pet.

It was said that there were more than ten thousand Mechanical Divine Soldiers on it. Every one of them had a cultivation of more than 20,000 years and guarded the cold line together.

The so-called cold line was the human defense line pushed forward by the cold wave.

When this news was announced in the war zone, it was very exciting.

“It’s not like the cold wave has never appeared in our history… Why is it so exaggerated this time?”

Wang Ka and Ludi looked at the huge creature and felt very safe, but for some reason, their backs turned cold.

“This question is already a little outdated…”

Bai Xiaoluo said helplessly, “The cold wave outbreak is not just here… The seven war zones have erupted in different geographical locations. It’s far from the normal cold waves in history… A year ago, there was still speculation on the Internet. Now that the announcement has been released, the Federation said very clearly that it’s the source of trouble left behind by those foreign races.”

“Do you believe it?”

“I don’t.”

“That’s right. To be honest, in an environment like the Ice Plain Continent, what’s a mere cold wave? Powerful ice-type soul pets aren’t even afraid of absolute zero. What’s a mere cold wave? With our war zone’s strength, it’s impossible to be afraid of the roots of disaster left behind by the foreign races…”

Wang Ka sneered, “However, feel this cold air! We Contract Soul Masters are slightly higher-level and are not afraid of the cold at all. However, this cold air can seep into our bodies. Even our soul power can’t isolate it. How can the foreign races leave behind these roots of trouble? If they were that powerful, we humans and soul beasts would have been extinct long ago!”

“Who would believe such simple lies?!”

“They said that they recruited us to help guard the cold line. They can’t tell us that our enemy is this cold air, right?”

“There are also Heavenly Kings… I heard that several Heavenly Kings have already disappeared from our war zone… and they even mobilized a million-year soul pet. They even publicly announced a mechanical soul pet like the Cloud Sky Mothership. They didn’t even tell us about the enemy?”

The few of them looked at each other.

The three of them whispered, roughly feeling indignant.

In the two years of the cold wave, although the war zone was still stable, the turbulent emotions had already spread.

Of course, many Contract Soul Masters had some thoughts and guesses, but they did not say them out loud.

“Your enemy is naturally not this cold air.”

At this moment, a hoarse and deep voice came from the side.

They turned around and saw a middle-aged man in a military uniform.

“I didn’t recruit you students to help the guards.”

The middle-aged man glanced at them and also looked at the team that wanted to try it.

“Then why do you want us to go? To watch a show?” Wang Ka frowned.

“That’s right, I want you to go and watch,” the middle-aged man said calmly. “Go and learn…”

“…”

With that, the middle-aged man walked forward.

The three of them were left stunned.

“Damn! Do you think we’re that weak?” Ludi could not help but say, “We’re the champion of the King’s Cup two years ago…”

“The last one, right?” Wang Ka whispered, “There hasn’t been a King’s Cup in the past two years… I was about to hold it when the cold wave erupted in the first year, but it was delayed… There wasn’t one last year, and there probably won’t be one this year.”

“Senior Sister Shen followed Professor Yun to the Cold Wave Research Institute at the front line last year… She hasn’t returned for a year.”

“Brother Wang is even more amazing. There’s been no news for more than two years…”

“Perhaps he’s at the front line now…”

“Damn, I think so too!”

“Then we have to go!”

Seeing the two of them chatting excitedly, Bai Xiaoluo could not help but purse her lips.

In the past two years, she had used some channels and asked about Wang Che…

Good fellow, he was missing.

The school said that he would take a break from studying for three years. However, three years were almost up and there was no sign of him.

There was no news at all.

Senior Shen could not find out either.

As time passed, no matter how legendary a person was, after two to three years of major events, he gradually disappeared from the public ears.

In more than two years, the school had changed two batches of students…

However…

Half a day later, Bai Xiaoluo and the two of them boarded the warship. Looking at the gradually shrinking Forest Academy, they had an inexplicable premonition, as if it was their last time seeing it.

“Sister Xiaoluo, with your identity, you shouldn’t have to be recruited with us, right?”

“I miss Little Shen. She’s been on the front line for more than a year. My family is about to go bankrupt… What identity can I have?” Bai Xiaoluo shrugged, “I, a rich woman, am already bankrupt. I can only follow Little Shen…”

“…”

The Cloud Sky Mothership flew into the sky and passed through the silver mountains and rivers towards the endless number of cultivators ahead…

The border between the Central Capital Continent and the Ice Plain Continent had originally been the Nu River heading to the Eastern Sea, but it had already become an ice river.

On the edge of the ice river, the cold wave was shrouded in fog in the distance. Looking down from the sky, the scenery was actually quite beautiful.

However, if one looked carefully, they could not feel any life force.

Third Cold Wave Research Base.

A special organization established in the Eastern War Zone a year ago.

The first and second cold wave research bases had already fallen in the first two continents.

This was the third one.

The Oracle Heavenly King stood above the base and looked ahead at the hazy cold wave.

Her snow-white face made her originally charming face look like an ice queen filled with cold air.

“It’s said that the Clear Capital War Zone has already developed a special soul device that can resist the cold wave.”

“As long as we can equip the soul pet, it won’t be affected by the cold wave anymore… facing the dead creatures in the cold wave, we might be able to fight.”

Beside the Oracle Heavenly King, He Huan, who was still wearing a white research suit, frowned slightly.

“Oh?” The Oracle Heavenly King said calmly, “Has the cold wave on their side slowed down?”

“No, it sped up.”

“According to our research, there’s a high chance that those dead creatures… are the corpses of soul beasts from the Remote Antiquity Era that have mutated for countless years. Especially after those foreign races invaded and caused the energy changes in this world…”

“It’s completely correct to say that it’s the root of the disaster left behind by the foreign races.” He Huan shook her head slightly, “But not entirely… These creatures might be related to the secrets of the Remote Antiquity Era…”

“We can’t figure it out.” The Oracle Heavenly King’s voice was low. “From the moment the Ice Palace appeared, some scholars in our war zone have guessed it long ago. Because that power is too strange, it doesn’t look like our modern power structure.”

“The reappeared ancient tomb… that’s what the central soul pet research base called it, right?”

“Half a year ago, when I personally went to the Myriad Beast Mountain to ask those Great Sages, their expressions were very strange after hearing about this. Then, they used a secret technique to awaken the remnant soul consciousness of an ancient Sacred Spirit. In the end? After telling them about this, the remnant soul consciousness of that ancient Sacred Spirit directly dissipated…”

“It’s afraid.”

“In other words, the Ice Palace was probably an extremely ancient and terrifying mysterious power in the Remote Antiquity Era.”

“Even that era did not study the cause and effect clearly, let alone us now.”

“Actually, according to my guess and the guesses of a few old professors…” He Huan hesitated, “I think, I think this matter might be related to the soul pet egg in the Ice Palace.”

“It might be because that egg was brought away from the Ice Palace.”

“But that egg was taken away long ago…” The Oracle Heavenly King was slightly stunned, “Moreover, it was handed to Wang Che long ago… You mean you want us to bring it back and try?”

“The special energy contained in the cold wave is not the dark magic power of those foreign races, but a power of death ice… in any case, it’s not something our modern ice-type soul pets have.”

“That ice seal is also mixed with the power of time. After the ice sculptures that were brought back thawed, most of the soul beasts had already died of old age.”

“This is not something that can be done with a simple ice seal.”

“Otherwise, these cold waves would not be so difficult to deal with.”

“As for that soul pet egg, according to the research conclusion of the Glazed Heavenly King, it contains the power of ice and time… and is closely related to the power of this cold wave.”

“I understand what you mean.” The Oracle Heavenly King nodded, “You want us to bring Wang Che back, right?”

He Huan nodded.

“Actually, I want to too.” The Oracle Heavenly King was silent for a moment, “After all, I promised his parents… but the situation on the Black Jade Star is complicated. I can’t go rashly now.”

“Do you mean you can’t go now, or even in the future?” He Huan suddenly asked.

She added, “I heard that the Cloud Sky Heavenly King disappeared in the cold wave when he led the team to resist a year ago… There’s no news yet.”

“…” The Oracle Heavenly King.

“As for the Cloud Sky Heavenly King, according to what I know, his soul pet has the ability to teleport. He was one of the five Heavenly Kings who teleported Wang Che and the two ancient overlords to the Black Jade Star.”

“My father said that if you want to locate the Black Jade Star through spatial transition, you can’t do it without one of the five Heavenly Kings.”

“Because it’s… very far…”

“…” The Oracle Heavenly King.

“You’ve already heard about it, so why ask me…” The Oracle Heavenly King whispered.

Actually, He Huan’s guess was that a year ago, many professors and scholars in the war zone had this guess. They had thought of bringing Wang Che back, but the key was that ice egg!

However, at that time, they were still worried that the space of the Black Jade Star was unstable. Once there was a problem with the five Heavenly Kings using the spatial leap, they might lose their lives.

The war zone did not dare to make a rash decision.

They planned to delay it for a while.

Unexpectedly, something happened to the Cloud Sky Heavenly King and he could not be found now.

As the cold wave became more and more urgent…

The importance of that ice egg was also becoming more and more important.

“Half a year ago, we tried once and failed.” The Oracle Heavenly King said, “Spatial soul beasts are too rare. The Cloud Sky Heavenly King’s one has the cultivation of 200,000 years. Currently, there are no such spatial soul pets in the war zone…”

“Moreover, the spatial coordinates of the Black Jade Star are rather special. When we went there, the war zone sent the password to the five Heavenly Kings for safekeeping. If we want to go to the Black Jade Star, we have to combine the five Heavenly Kings as one as a precaution.”

“Moreover, the location password will be changed every year. When the Cloud Sky Heavenly King disappeared in the cold wave, the backup password in the war zone had not been updated.”

“In other words, even if there are 200,000-year-old space-type soul beasts or Contract Soul Masters, without the coordinates in the hands of the Cloud Sky Heavenly King, the four of us can’t locate the Black Jade Star alone.”

He Huan: “…”

“So… he can’t come back?” He Huan was speechless.

The Oracle Heavenly King fell silent.

Actually, losing the Black Jade Star was nothing. After all, it was only a desolate star.

However, Wang Che was there, especially the ice egg. Although it might not have much to do with the cold wave, it was still a fatal loss.

“For now, that’s the case.”

The Oracle Heavenly King sighed.

“Then let’s leave him on that desolate star alone?” He Huan’s tone was a little angry.

“Don’t be angry. There’s actually a way.” The Oracle Heavenly King coughed, “I can deduce the spatial coordinates of the Cloud Sky Heavenly King…”

“How long will it take?”

“…”

“Without the cold wave, we can quickly deduce it.”

“What about now?”

“It’s hard to say… If we can’t resolve the cold wave… maybe within… a hundred years?”

“His corpse has already decomposed over there.”

“…”

“Back then, he said that he wanted to stay on the desolate star to cultivate. It shouldn’t be a problem to last for decades. Moreover, he studied farming at university. His talent is very high. It’s impossible for him to die there.”

“…”

Black Jade Star, the middle of June 2023.

Three years had passed.

“I should go back…”

“So, where are they?”

Wang Che looked at the quiet Black Jade Star and did not know what to say.

“Did they forget?”

At first, Wang Che felt that it was unlikely.

Another two years passed.

Wang Che could confirm now.

They had forgotten about him.
