Su Ping immediately had a plan after seeing the income.
First of all, he had to upgrade the store.
The store had been level-4 at the beginning because he couldn't raise pets with high aptitudes in the Star State; he couldn't upgrade the store even if he had enough energy. However, the Little Skeleton and the Inferno Dragon were already in the Star State, and their aptitudes were higher than high. They were more than qualified for the upgrade.
If the store was upgraded, the pets that Su Ping could train would also reach the Star State.
Su Ping planned to make the Little Skeleton and the others reach the Star Lord State as soon as possible. That way, his store would be upgraded to level-6!
Su Ping was quite looking forward to the new functions of the store.
Apart from upgrading the store, Su Ping also planned to take Joanna and the others to the Archean Divinity to fulfill their employee benefits. He also wanted to visit the Archean Divinity. After all, it was a top cultivation site and the main world of the primordial age. He would probably make rapid progress if he cultivated there.
"Is there anything wrong with my egg?" Su Ping suddenly remembered the egg of the Chaos Beast he had brought back from the Heavenly Star Pavilion. He immediately went to the Chaos Spirit Pool room.
"Nothing has changed." The three girls followed him. Joanna said, "It's an egg of that kind of creature after all. The conditions for incubating it are too harsh. It needs the ancient aura of Chaos."
Su Ping looked at the egg that was lying quietly in the pool. He nodded and said, "Let's see if we can incubate it while the store is upgraded."
The aura of Chaos had long been extinct; it was an ancient energy in the world. However, Su Ping knew that the aura of Chaos was present in the Chaos Spirit Pool. Every time a pet was hatched, it would be built with the aura of Chaos. After all, it was impossible to create something out of nothing.
Joanna and Green Lady looked at each other and didn't say anything. They had seen the Chaos Spirit Pool while taking care of the store. Although they weren't authorized to use it, they had sensed an ancient aura from the pool. It was like the aura of Chaos in the legends!
Su Ping opened the store's menu and chose to upgrade it.
"Confirm the upgrade?" the system repeated.
Su Ping nodded.
"The requirement to upgrade the store to the fifth level has been met. The upgrade will take 72 hours. During the upgrade, the store will be closed. Only the functions of the cultivation site will be available. Please confirm."
"Confirmed."
Soon, Su Ping saw that 100 million energy points had been deducted from the store's three years of accumulation.
Behind the shop's interface, there were also brackets with the words "Upgrading".
"Three days? That's good. I'll use this time to go to the Archean Divinity," Su Ping thought to himself.
He said to Joanna and Tang Ruyan, "Get ready. I'll take you to the Archean Divinity later so that you can get your benefits."
Joanna was slightly startled. "Now?"
"Okay." Su Ping nodded.
He looked at Green Lady and said, "I'll accompany you to the Deities' Realm after I'm done with them."
"Yes." Green Lady nodded. She wasn't in a hurry. Besides, she still had doubts about whether Su Ping could go. She would have to wait for Joanna and the others to return.
"I'll go to the Archean Divinity first and scout the way for you," said Su Ping.
Tang Ruyan knew that Su Ping was doing that for her sake. She quickly said, "That's not necessary. Let's go together. I want to see it even if it's broken."
She was no longer the ignorant young lady of the Tang family. She had heard a lot of secrets in the universe in the past three years. Also, she had learned a lot from chatting with Joanna and the others. She knew that the Archean Divinity was a primeval world where the gods lived, and that the gods were one of the strongest species in the world back then!
Tang Ruyan felt that it would be worth it if she could have the chance to see such a world, even if it was broken.
In the meantime, she was quite curious about the place that Joanna had been longing for.
"Are you sure? If it's broken, you might not be able to grow stronger there," said Su Ping.
Tang Ruyan nodded firmly. "I'm sure. I'm just being extravagant. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have had the chance to see such a place in my life."
"That's true." Su Ping smiled without any modesty.
Tang Ruyan wanted to roll her eyes. This guy always ruined the atmosphere. Why couldn't he do things the normal way?
Joanna, however, remained silent.
But there was a complicated look in her eyes; she wasn't as cold and indifferent as she usually was. She seemed nervous.
Returning to the Archean Divinity was the dream of every god in the Demigod Burial!
Even the four Overgods were no exception to this rule!
The Archean Divinity wasn't just a hometown for the gods; it was also their ancestral land, where the core strength of the race was hidden. They could only become stronger after returning there!
Joanna wanted to go to the Archean Divinity not only to find a way to bring the gods of the Demigod Burial back home, but also to make a breakthrough and become a Superior God with the help of the Archean Divinity!
That was the only way to be truly eternal!
When Su Ping was about to take them to the Archean Divinity, they heard someone knocking on the door.
The door was closed, but they could still hear the knocking and the conversations outside. Su Ping was surprised to hear Mother Yun's voice. He told the two girls to wait for a moment and then went to open the door.
"Mr. Su, someone is looking for you," Mother Yun said to Su Ping. At the same time, she found it strange that she couldn't see what was going on inside the store when she was outside. It was as if the store was enveloped by a seal, but she couldn't feel the seal, which was a surprise to her.
"What?" Su Ping was confused. Looking for him? Was it for pet training?
Before Su Ping could ask, a man suddenly flashed down from the sky and landed outside of Su Ping's store. He was wearing a luxurious purple robe.
It was a majestic middle-aged man, but he was smiling and seemed quite friendly. He said to Su Ping, "Nice to meet you, Mr. Su. I'm Lou Lanfeng. I heard that you've finished your seclusion in the Celestial Court. Three years ago, when you were in the Heavenly Star Pavilion, the elders of our family invited you. Would you be interested in becoming a guest of the Lou Lanfeng family?"
"The Lou Lanfeng family?"
Su Ping was stunned for a moment. He immediately remembered what happened when he was picking weapons in the Heavenly Star Pavilion. "So, it's you …"
He was quite surprised that they had found him so soon after he returned. It was obvious that they had been lurking around Rhea for a long time.
The Lou Lanfeng family's sincerity was also evident.
However …
"I'm sorry …" Su Ping slightly shook his head. He didn't want to get involved with those big families for the time being. Besides, he could always say yes if he needed to.
"Mr. Su, don't be in such a hurry to turn me down." Loulan Feng quickly waved his hand and smiled. "I heard that Mister Su needs some rare cultivation materials. It just so happens that I found one in the Loulan family's vault, and it happens to be one of the materials that Elder Yan hasn't found yet. This material is stored in the vault and can't be taken out casually. I came in a hurry this time, otherwise I would have given it to Mister Su."
Su Ping was stunned. Materials for the Solar Bulwark?
Also, the man seemed to be hinting at something else.
He knew that Elder Yan was also looking for materials for him, and he even knew the details of the materials.
However, it wasn't too strange. After all, Elder Yan would have to spread the list of materials if he was looking for them. It would be difficult to do it in secret, and there was no need to keep it a secret. It wouldn't be a big deal if Elder Yan learned about it.
"Got it. I'll think about it." Su Ping nodded.
Lou Lanfeng was relieved to see Su Ping's expression. He said with a smile, "How long will it take, Mr. Su? I'll deliver the materials to you first."
"I'll think about it for a couple of days," said Su Ping.
He planned to accept the offer after he returned from the Archean Divinity.
Since the man was so sincere about giving him the materials, it would be unreasonable if he didn't accept it.
