Chapter 644 - The Space Swallowers



If the scale was the medium, the creature was most likely at the Star Rank, the ruler of the wild beasts in the Deep Caves.

Destroying the formation when a Star Ranked beast king was involved would be immensely difficult. He would rather make the trip another time when he was more confident. Maybe that formation represented a chance to maul the beasts in the Deep Caves. He couldn’t make a rash decision.

Whoosh!

Su Ping disguised himself and went away.

He went back all the way to the bronze door.

He teleported to the other side of the door and ran away as fast as possible.

I have to tell the people outside about the Deep Caves. The Tower has loads of vermin but it is still the most powerful organization on the Blue Planet. They know more than I do; they may have a solution.

Su Ping hurried away. He was able to cover longer distances when merged with the Little Skeleton and teleporting. He could travel tens of thousands of meters, and that was still not the maximum distance he could travel!

After some time, Su Ping was hundreds of thousands of meters away from the bronze door.

The area behind the door is much larger than I anticipated. It’s like half a continent! Su Ping pondered.

His prior impression was that the Deep Caves were torn apart, and that there were everywhere in the world.

But judging from the area behind that door, the nearby Deep Caves were in one piece!

Perhaps it was related to the Fields outside that interconnected the Deep Caves around the world. The true Deep Caves was one complete land.

My understanding of space is not deep enough for me to locate the different Fields.

Su Ping stood in the Corridor, frowning.

He wanted to find the Wind Field, cut space open and get back so he could tell Li Yuanfeng and the others about what he had seen. And yet, going back to the Wind Field of Wind in such a fashion seemed to be out of his reach.

Yun Wanli should have Li Yuanfeng’s contact information. Asking Yun Wanli to tell Li Yuanfeng will be enough. Su Ping decided to go back outside for the time being.

The Fields were changing and he couldn’t easily find his way in the Deep Caves, but he could manage to make a path to go back to the surface. Void Sword!

Bang!

He slashed space open. The light, dust, and basic elements around the sword light were all shattered and obliterated; space then collapsed into a swirl.

He went into the swirl directly.

The turbulent currents in space landed on the white bones but the former were completely unable to produce any damage!

Covered in white bones, even without the Dark Dragon Hound’s defensive layers, Su Ping was able to walk around in the turbulent spatial currents with ease. The Little Skeleton’s help had thoroughly remolded Su Ping!

In the wilderness.

A brown-spotted Rock Hill Tiger was gnawing a fifth-rank Poison-tailed Mink. The tiger was tearing open the mink’s belly, tasting the latter’s organs with relish.

All of a sudden, something alerted the tiger. It turned around and stared at a spot in the air.

Space collapsed; a young man with black hair stepped out.

The moment the tiger saw the black-haired young man, the roots of the tiger’s fur stood up. It was shivering. Fear appeared in the tiger’s eyes; its limbs felt weak, soon falling to the ground. The soil behind the tiger’s rear had been soaked by something... “Phew!”

Su Ping breathed in relief. He looked around. He was back on surface level.

He saw the tiger he had freaked out, then stopped the merger with the Little Skeleton.

Maintaining the merged state was very exhausting to him. He felt worn out, physically and spiritually, as soon as he dispelled the skill.

I think I am close to the Longyang Base City.

Su Ping gazed into the distance and saw the outline of a base city. He rose from the ground, stirring up piles of dust. Next, he flew away and vanished.

After he left, the tiger gradually recovered; shaking its head, it stood back up. Having lost its appetite, the feline picked up the remains of its prey and ran off.

Longyang Base City.

Su Ping had soon reached the Base City and arrived at the Valiant Academy.

His intrusion and the violent energy from the Inferno Dragon had alerted many people on campus. Many title battle pet warriors came out from all corners of the academy. “Brother Su?”

Several people flew over with Yun Wanli at the front. He had sensed the energy of the Inferno Dragon so he hurried out to meet him. He was surprised to see Su Ping.

Yun Wanli had stayed close to the Deep Caves’ entrance, but Su Ping had not exited from that place.

“He’s back.”

The other two legendary battle pet warriors narrowed their eyes.

They had learned from Yun Wanli that he witnessed Su Ping entering the Deep Caves; he had returned, safe and sound. That fact alone was making them wary of him.

“Do you know that only the Wind Field remains standing?” Su Ping asked while keeping a straight face.

Yun Wanli was then convinced that Su Ping had indeed gone further inside of the Deep Caves. He wouldn’t have known about that secret fact otherwise.

“We know.” Yun Wanli kept his voice low. “The formation is failing. The wild beasts sabotaged it, and the Wind Field is our last line of defense. Have you been there?”

Su Ping asked, “Do you have a way to contact the Wind Field?”

“Yes. We have Space Swallowers,” Yun Wanli replied.

“Space Swallowers?”

“Yes. It’s a special kind of insect. They live in space but are inherently weak. Even third or fourth-rank beasts can easily kill them. Even so, Space Swallowers have a special ability. They can split up and the two parts can sense themselves even when far apart.”

Yun Wanli explained further, “We studied that ability and then started using them as our communication devices across space.”

Su Ping raised his eyebrows. That was the first time he had heard of those special insects.

“I have to talk to those at the Wind Field. I need your help for that,” Su Ping said at once.

“Weren’t you just there?” Yun Wanli was confused.

“It’s a long story. Help me right now. I’m talking about a critical matter,” Su Ping urged Yun Wanli.

“I don’t think that’s a good choice.”

The old legendary battle pet warriors frowned. “Space Swallowers are precious and hard to catch. Using them will shorten their lifespan, and we only have a couple of split-up pieces of the small ones. They can only be used twice. If we use them now, we would only have one chance left. If something happens and we don’t have enough of them...”

The young legendary battle pet warrior said, “Right. The Longyang Base City can be under attack at any time and the wild beasts can escape from the Deep Caves. We cannot waste the Space Swallowers. Brother Su, why don’t you tell us about that critical matter?”

Su Ping glared at them. “The wild beasts have disappeared from the Deep Caves. Is that critical enough?”

“Disappeared?”

“I cannot believe it!”

“That’s not possible!”

The three legendary battle pet warriors were startled. Yun Wanli came back to his senses first. “Brother Su, you cannot joke about that.”

Su Ping sneered. “Do you think I’m in the mood to joke around?”

Yun Wanli could still not believe it. “But how can it be? Are those wild beasts already outside, on the surface? But, we haven’t heard anything about it. Some of the beasts got out but not all of them. The formation is still working...”

“I only trust what I saw. Most of the wild beasts in the deepest parts of the caves have disappeared. Only a few remain in their lair,” Su Ping said coldly.

He had seen many beasts’ nests when he was exploring. There should have been a large number of beasts down there.

“Are you saying you went to the Corridor?” The old legendary battle pet warrior was having a hard time believing that.

The Corridor was a place that even legendary battle pet warriors were scared of; a place where beast kings lived. Any legendary battle pet warrior who went there unprepared would be torn apart by the beast kings!

Su Ping suddenly felt that the situation was comical. He sneered, but was no longer in the mood to argue with them.

“Give me the Space Swallowers,” Su Ping said to Yun Wanli.

Yun Wanli knew from the coldness in Su Ping’s eyes that he would resort to violence if they dallied any longer!

This young man is not a friendly person. After a moment of hesitation, Yun Wanli agreed. “Okay.”

Su Ping had gone to the Corridor with Li Yuanfeng, which is why Yun Wanli had become aware that Li Yuanfeng was still alive. The latter had even praised Su Ping extensively.

Also, Su Ping had challenged the Tower. It was believable that Su Ping had the ability to go to the Corridor.

“Old Wan.”

The young legendary battle pet warrior was about to say something when he suddenly felt as if a blade had been placed on his neck.

He looked over, only to see the glint of coldness in Su Ping’s eyes. That glare was as sharp as a tangible blade!

The young legendary battle pet warrior turned pale; he eventually refrained to say anything else to stop Su Ping.

Soon after, Yun Wanli returned with an insect in his hand.

The critter was the size of his palm. It was curled up, like an earthworm. The insect had a strange mouth filled with small but sharp teeth.

It would be a scary sight if the insect were hundreds of times larger...

But since the insect was small, it didn’t seem as disgusting

“This is a Space Swallower,” Yun Wanli said.

Su Ping nodded. He wondered when he could get a Space Swallower himself. They worked better than phones, being able to connect different spaces.

“Contact the Wind Field,” Su Ping said.

Yun Wanli nodded. “This little thing is my battle pet; I signed a contract with it. Brother Su, tell me what you want to say and I will tell the little thing to deliver the message.”

Su Ping then understood better.

The only way for humans to control beasts was to turn the latter into pets.

Of course, some had tried to tame beasts without using contracts, but none of those people ended up well.

Taming without contracts could only work on beasts with mild and kind characters. Beasts born to be skilled in combat were violent in nature. They could only be temporarily tame and could always give in to violence, eventually attacking their masters.

“So, you saved up a spot for this little thing.”

“Yes. The number of battle pets is not the most important thing. The battle pets and the warrior have to work well together. Of course, I would have to give up if I ran into some rare beasts but didn’t have any spots available. I don’t want to cancel any contract because that would make me weak and an easy target,” Yun Wanli said. Su Ping nodded and then told Yun Wanli about the situation in the Deep Caves.

Silence prevailed as he told the story.

Yun Wanli and the other two legendary battle pet warriors stared at Su Ping in shock.

They could not believe that not only had Su Ping gone into the Corridor, he had also reached the deepest level!

They had heard that the Corridor was not at the bottom of the Deep Caves. The deepest level under the Corridor was the most terrifying place inside the Deep Caves!

Su Ping only mentioned seeing five beasts at the Fate State while he explored!

He didn’t count the ones that had already left the Deep Caves...

The three looked at each other in speechless astonishment and fear.

Su Ping didn’t worry about the frightful effect of his news. The three were legendary battle pet warriors. If they couldn’t stay composed in such a situation, they would not make a worthwhile contribution in battle.

“Brother Su, are, are you serious?” Yun Wanli gulped.

Su Ping glared at him grumpily.

Do I really look like someone who would joke around?

“Tell them, and tell this to anyone who is really doing something in the Tower,” Su Ping said.

Yun Wanli came back to his senses and nodded. His heart was still racing. “This is terrifying news. Brother Su, we’re fortunate that you noticed all this. Those beasts must be hiding somewhere, plotting something. Maybe they want to sneak up on us and deal a disastrous blow!”

Su Ping didn’t answer. Those beasts were certainly behaving like that for a reason.

That reason could have something to do with the sealing formation he had seen at the deepest level.

“I have something else to do. I have to go,” Su Ping said.

The war was on the verge of breaking out; he could not waste any more time. He had to go back to his store so that he could train some battle pets. Judging by what he had seen in the Deep Caves, humans were sorely lacking in strength. He hoped he could make a difference. “Of course.”

Yun Wanli nodded. Suddenly, his phone began to ring

He answered the call at once. Soon, the information provided made everyone turn pale.

“A super-large strike to the Holy Light Base City?”

Yun Wanli was frozen on the spot. There would have to be two beast kings or more to categorize the attack as super-large!
