But for Su Ping, this was just the beginning.
Without a second thought, he took out that special item from the Beast Taming Space.
As he removed the item from the confinent of the Beast Taming Space, both Qian Yi and Little Fla imdiately looked over.
It was an odd lamp, modeled after ancient oil lamps. A snow-white fla blood atop it.
Beneath this fla, even Qian Yi, let alone Little Fla, couldn’t help but be drawn to it, seemingly wanting to get closer, like a moth drawn to a fla.
That was also why, after Su Ping exchanged his own reward for this item, he sealed it away imdiately.
Even Su Ping himself would feel as if his soul were about to leave his body if he looked at it for a long ti.
It was as if his consciousness was being drawn out, not under his control.
Spirit Saint Level resource, ’Soul Guiding Wick’.
It could protect the souls of high-level Beast Tars or Pet Beasts, and in certain situations, it could even preserve the soul indefinitely.
It was an extrely precious soul-type resource.
After Su Ping took this item out of the Beast Taming Space, Qian Yi and Little Fla even followed him out.
But Su Ping had no ti to spare for them.
It would be good to let this Little Fla witness the evolution and enhancent of my own Pet Beast.
With that thought, Su Ping walked alone into the dical room, holding up the snow-white Soul Guiding Wick’s fla, and slowly directed it into the azure Light of Evolution!
The white soul fla slowly enveloped Xiao Qing’s cocoon.
And Su Ping, holding the lamp without its fla, walked back out and fixed his gaze firmly on Xiao Qing inside the dical room.
...
"This is the realm of that little fellow? Although I had heard about it, seeing it in person really shows they don’t hold back on spending!"
An elderly voice ca from the sky, as two figures looked down upon the land below.
The speaker was an elder with a vague form, seemingly not existing in this spatial world, exuding a sense of being a lofty and otherworldly elder compared to his granddaughter encased within chanized armor beside him.
At the mont, his gaze was firmly fixed on the space above the Heart of Phoenix crafted below.
The huge ’bird cage’ made of plant life seed to hang in the air, a sight so odd it was clearly not natural.
He naturally recognized at a glance that this was a realm crafted with a Spirit Saint Level resource, Grass Breath Soil.
To build a house with Spirit Saint Level resources?
Although it was probably just a small, insignificant piece of scrap material, it was still exceedingly extravagant.
The elder sighed again, "I have been in Jianghai for so many years, and it surprises that I truly did not know that Linzhou had such a family hidden away!"
Dong Muyun didn’t show much change in expression but thought of that brat who had left Linzhou again and said, "It has nothing to do with the Su Family itself. Su Ping’s achievents are probably mainly due to his own capabilities."
The elder glanced at her, chuckled, and said nothing more.
He was old and cunning, and he knew his granddaughter’s thoughts well, but he did not take her words to heart.
Mainly on his own? Indeed, there must be such a reason. After all, no matter what kind of family background one has, without personal effort, one would not achieve such success. However, if Su Ping had no background and also did not actively choose a side, he probably would have been devoured by so people long ago. Not to ntion, the Pingyun Company created by just the two of them, with such enormous benefits—not even Dong Muyun, let alone the Dong Family, could fully control it. At crucial tis, they would have to share so benefits, yet Pingyun has never had any trouble and has been running smoothly all along. Furthermore, as the enterprise expanded, it received nurous orders from other eastern provinces. Did no one intervene? How could that be possible!
With these thoughts, the elder’s eyes narrowed slightly.
Su Family? Indeed, there used to be such a surna among the powerful ancient families in history, but it had long since vanished into the mists of ti. Moreover, it seed not to be located in Jianghai. The few generations above Su Ping had clean histories. His father and grandfather both served in the military as Legion Beast Tars. His father was a retired serviceman, and his grandfather had died in a major Beast Tide in Linzhou’s past. However, as the local powers of Jianghai, the Dong Family had been entrenched for many years. Though so information might not be accessible to ordinary people, it didn’t an the Dong Family couldn’t investigate it. During his investigation, the elder had actually discovered so peculiar details. Su Zhongguang, Su Ping’s grandfather, was said to have died in a major Beast Tide in Linzhou’s past. Yet, as a registered Monarch Level Peak Beast Tar, Su Zhongguang’s power was not weak, even in Linzhou. Moreover, as a Legion mber, he should have had command authority. Even after retiring, the sa would apply when called up for combat service. But, in the records from that year, the elder did not find any trace of this. Even the death of Su Zhongguang, Su Ping’s grandfather, was rely ntioned in a simple sentence. Information such as which wave of the Beast Tide he fell to, how many Ferocious Beasts he killed, what his Pet Beasts were, and any videos or recordings of the battle—all were missing! Just that one simple statent: Died in the Linzhou Beast Tide over twenty years ago. This, upon deeper investigation, was highly unreasonable. The only plausible explanation was that the real cause of Su Zhongguang’s death could not be disclosed to outsiders! Therefore, his official record rely stated a plausible, if vague, cause of death. The Dong Family naturally would not have cared before, but since that young boy was attacked last ti, and ’that person’ ca in person, the elder began to think a lot upon learning about it. As an old-tir of the Dong Family, Ghost Saint had risen to power in the past twenty years with an unimaginable speed, ascending to Spirit Saint Level, and continuously soaring through Realms. Moreover, his rapid progress was proclaid to be among the most inconceivable talents among Beast Tars in decades. Without children of his own, why did he pay such attention to Su Ping? And furthermore, ’Second Grandfather’? This title was enough to signify a close relationship. Upon further investigation, it was revealed that the military unit Su Zhongguang served in was in Ximo Province. Ghost Saint had also been stationed there at the ti, leading to a simple conclusion: Su Zhongguang and Ghost Saint belonged to the sa unit and were extrely close comrades-in-arms. So, what was the real cause of death?
The elder shook his head, not dwelling on it further.
There were many matters that, if even the Dong Family’s information channels couldn’t uncover them, definitely shouldn’t be pursued further. The Dong Family, once one of the more prominent families among the Dragon Nation’s great houses, had dwindled significantly after major societal changes, leaving them with few influential mbers. They absolutely couldn’t afford to stir any more trouble. That was also why he, the Family Head of the Dong Family, had personally invited the Mirror Saint when that young fellow made a request. Naturally, he still intended to swallow his pride and build a good relationship with Su Ping.
"Speaking of which, what kind of Pet Beast does that kid really want to evolve that needs Mirror Saint’s intervention?"
The elder glanced at Dong Muyun.
The latter shook her head as well, "His Cultivation and Evolution thods are always whimsical, quite odd and magical. Who knows what he has in mind this ti? Previously, Master Zhu Hong spent New Year at Su Ping’s place, maybe due to Master Zhu’s guidance! It’s said to be his Contracted Beast, that Forest Wolf."
"An Elental Cultivation Master, and definitely a future Spirit Saint Level Dragon Tar, with potential to succeed as the chairman of the Breeder Association, tsk..."
After a slight sigh, the elder then perked up, "However, even if it was Master Zhu’s guidance, since it is that kid’s Contracted Beast, its Rank indeed might not be too high. Well, since Mirror Saint has agreed to it, let’s consider it as a gesture of stillness prompting action; my Dong Family shows its sincerity."
Upon saying this, the elder looked up slightly. In the void above him, a peculiar mirror slowly materialized.
It resembled a giant mirror reflecting the entire sky. With a gentle flicker, two figures appeared within the Heart of Myriad Spirits, before the entrance to the Heart of Woods.
