The Celestial Pig was a low-rank beast with a third-rank bloodline. It had a pink, tender, and harmless appearance.
Nourished by the spirit energy in the nursing pen, the Celestial Pig had just reached the fourth rank. As soon as it landed, it was still in a daze. All of a sudden, it was awakened by several horrifying auras. When it saw the Inferno Dragon and the desert monsters fighting, the Celestial Pig squealed like a pig being slaughtered.
Both the Inferno Dragon's dragon aura and the more horrifying desert monsters were too far away for the Celestial Pig to deal with.
The Celestial Pig was just a low-rank beast.
Whoosh!
The Celestial Pig turned around and ran away.
Su Ping raised his eyebrows and released his killing intent skill. Through the power of the contract, the killing intent was poured into the Celestial Pig's head.
The Celestial Pig stopped running. Its black eyes turned red. It turned around and stomped on the ground with its sharp feet. Panting heavily, the Celestial Pig obeyed Su Ping's order and dashed into the battlefield.
Kill! Kill! Kill!
The Celestial Pig's mind was filled with killing intent.
With a bang, the Celestial Pig was whipping the ground, creating a four to five-meter-wide ditch and stirring up dust.
Squeak!!
The killing intent in the Celestial Pig's head was awakened.
The Celestial Pig's ferocious teeth shrank back into its mouth. Trembling, it watched the battle in front of it. Its limbs were weak, but after a pause, it turned around and dashed away again.
Su Ping was surprised.
The killing intent skill … was unlocked?
He was speechless. This pig was a bit too cowardly.
Seeing the Celestial Pig running away, Su Ping had to release another killing intent skill.
Once again, the Celestial Pig was activated by the killing intent. It roared and dashed into the battlefield.
Su Ping was still worried. When the Celestial Pig was close to the battlefield, he used another killing intent skill on it. Double Killing Intent Rage!
This time, the Heavenly Fragrant Pig successfully charged into the battlefield, and then … it was instantly crushed into minced meat.
Su Ping told it to come back to life on the spot and continue to use the killing intent skill. Although its attacks wouldn't affect the battle at all and it wouldn't be able to train it, such a battle wasn't about training its combat skills. It was about forcing it to unleash its potential, as well as training its will and courage.
While the Dark Dragon Hound and the Inferno Dragon were afraid of death, the truth was that they were cautious. After countless battles and deaths, both of them had a ferocious side. It was just that they wouldn't show it easily.
When forced into a desperate situation, the Dark Dragon Hound and the Dark Dragon Hound would even risk their lives to fight against beast kings. They wouldn't just tremble in fear. Even when facing that girl of the god race, the Dark Dragon Hound and the Dark Dragon Hound didn't run away. That was courage!
The Celestial Pig was on the "right track." Su Ping diverted most of his attention to the Inferno Dragon and the Dark Dragon Hound. In an advanced cultivation realm, it wouldn't be difficult for him to train the Celestial Pig to an above average aptitude. If he could improve the aptitudes of the Dark Dragon Hound, the Inferno Dragon, and the Little Skeleton, that would be a great gain!
Whoosh!
The Little Skeleton flashed in the air and attacked the monster's weak points.
The Inferno Dragon and the Dark Dragon Hound were at the front and they had died over a dozen times. While the Little Skeleton had been crushed several times, it hadn't truly died once. If the Little Skeleton wanted to run away, not even a beast king could stop it.
"Undead Enslavement!"
Su Ping saw the skeletons of other beasts on the ground. He told the Little Skeleton to use the Undead Enslavement skill.
Some of the skeletons belonged to beast kings. Su Ping didn't know if the Little Skeleton could enslave them. But he had given the order and the Little Skeleton had always obeyed, regardless of the difficulty.
As he had expected.
Under Su Ping's command, the Little Skeleton flashed to the side and appeared above a skeleton that was a hundred meters tall. Dark energy surged out of the Little Skeleton's body, which gradually turned into a dark cloud that enveloped the area.
Enveloped by the dark cloud-like energy, the white bones on the ground started to tremble slightly.
At the same time, without the Little Skeleton, the Inferno Dragon and the Dark Dragon Hound died quickly. They couldn't stop the monster's attack and they didn't even have time to revive.
Su Ping had to jump down from the Purple Python's head and tell it to join the battle.
Without the Purple Python's protection, Su Ping had to divert some of his attention to keep an eye on the surroundings while he was commanding the battle.
After the Purple Python joined the battle, it was still killed instantly. In front of this desert monster, the Purple Python was no different from the Celestial Pig. They were both killed in one hit. The only difference was that the Purple Python needed to attack twice before it was killed. However, this was only because the desert monster didn't attack it seriously.
For the Purple Python, the desert monster was an unbeatable beast. The pressure made the Purple Python's scales tremble and it secreted hormones to keep it in peak condition.
The Purple Python's limits and potential were squeezed out through the repeated deaths and revivals.
On the other side, the energy of the dark cloud above the Little Skeleton's head gradually drifted into the white skeleton on the ground. Gradually, the wasteland began to tremble. The hundred-meter-long white skeleton slowly shook and crawled out of the sand.
When its skeleton crawled out from the sand, an even larger part of its body was revealed. It was like a giant elephant beast with an extremely large physique.
Roar!!
After crawling out from the sand, the giant skeleton suddenly roared at the Little Skeleton, as if it were fighting back.
The Little Skeleton's bones were trembling and red energy was flowing out. Two balls of crimson flames appeared in the Little Skeleton's eye sockets. The Little Skeleton roared even louder than before.
As it roared, an illusory skeleton shadow appeared in the void behind it, bringing with it boundless pressure.
The giant skeleton on the ground trembled and suddenly collapsed. The skeleton fell to the ground and scattered.
The rest of the skeleton was still holding on. Gradually, half a body was formed and the skeleton crawled toward the desert monster.
Su Ping could tell from the Little Skeleton's consciousness that the Little Skeleton had reached its limit.
He was pleasantly surprised that the Little Skeleton could enslave the giant skeleton. Even though the Little Skeleton had only enslaved half of the skeleton's body, it was evident that the Little Skeleton was a beast king. The fact that the Little Skeleton could enslave a beast king of a higher rank was impressive.
After all, the Little Skeleton's true level was only at the sixth rank!
The Little Skeleton was able to enslave a beast king of a higher rank than the Little Skeleton. That was unimaginable!
Of course, Su Ping could tell that the Little Skeleton was only able to tame the beast king because of the Skeleton King's bloodline.
"This is unbelievable!"
"However, even though he's so heaven-defying, his aptitude is about to fall to the lowest level. I wonder what kind of monsters those truly powerful Skeleton Kings were since ancient times!"
Su Ping thought. He was shocked.
At this time, with the addition of the giant skeleton, the desert monster felt as if it was facing a great enemy. It felt the pressure of an aura of the same level. The Little Skeleton had awakened the undead energy in the giant skeleton. The skeleton was half a beast king.
Roar!
The desert monster changed its direction and attacked the giant skeleton.
The Inferno Dragon came back to life and went after the monster with the Dark Dragon Hound.
The two pets were using their most powerful attacks, but they were merely scratching the monster's itch. Since their attacks were ineffective, the pets began to feel anxious. They had realized that their attacks were not strong enough.
No matter how hard they tried, they would not be able to do anything to the monster.
Roar!!
The Inferno Dragon bellowed. Its scales stood up. As a proud dragon, the Inferno Dragon had its dignity. In a fit of rage, the Inferno Dragon used up all its energy and spewed out the Inferno Flames.
Whoosh!
Flames surged out like a column. That was the Purgatory Fire, a beast king's fire seed. As the Purgatory Fire roared, the compressed Purgatory Fire began to emit a destructive aura of the real Purgatory Fire.
The desert monster sensed it, and its huge roulette-like eyes turned and glanced over.
Purgatory Flames sprayed out, sticking to the desert monster's tail, burning fiercely.
The desert monster controlled the sand on the ground to cover it, but the sand was also burned into lava. The temperature of the flames was terrifyingly high, and they stuck to the end of the desert monster's tail like a bone.
The desert monster roared angrily as it was burned. Its crab claw-like pincers suddenly slammed the ground, causing the sand to shake violently. A turbulent shockwave shot out.
Su Ping had seen this coming. He didn't have the time to tell his pets to get out of the way. He hurriedly raised himself up in the air. A sandstorm swept over. The Inferno Dragon, the Dark Dragon Hound, and the other pets were cut in half at the waist. They fell to the sand, covered in blood.
But the shockwave had no effect on the giant skeleton. Under the Little Skeleton's control, the giant skeleton was still waving its white claws and fangs at the desert monster.
Su Ping was relieved that he had survived. He told the pets to come back to life and continue the attack.
"The Inferno Dragon's fire attack seems to be different." Su Ping noticed that the flames were still on the tail of the desert monster. He used the identification skill to check the Inferno Dragon.
A new skill appeared under the Inferno Dragon's skill bar.
Inferno Dragonfire (Level 1)
Su Ping was surprised.
The "Inferno Flames" skill that the Inferno Dragon had learned had been changed to "Inferno Dragonfire." One word had been changed, and there was an additional "level 1" at the end. That had never happened to any other skill.
"What does this level mean? Can it be upgraded further?"
Su Ping was confused.
He thought about it and decided to ask the system.
The system never avoided questions about pets. If it did, it would mean that the skill needed energy …
"Beast King skills that can grow will have a level display. When your appraisal skill reaches the intermediate level, there will be an introduction," the system said casually. At the end, it added, "Do you want to upgrade your pet appraisal skill now?"
