"This is the right place. This is the place. But …"
Yun Wanli stared at the empty walls in a daze. He remembered that legendary battle pet warriors from the Tower should have been stationed at the border of the Deep Caves.
The entrance to the Deep Caves that the Valiant Academy was guarding was located in the center of the first base city of the Subcontinent District!
That was a critical juncture. The consequences would be unimaginable if the wild beasts inside were to break out. How come there weren't any legendary battle pet warriors stationed at the border?
Su Ping closed his eyes. A few seconds later, he opened them again and said in a low voice, "I don't see any other living creatures around here."
"That's not possible. This is not a joke. The Tower must have sent legendary battle pet warriors to guard the border!" Yun Wanli couldn't help but shout.
Su Ping glared at him coldly. "Don't you know what kind of place the Tower is?"
Ever since he went to the Tower and saw those legendary battle pet warriors having fun there, he didn't like the Tower at all.
The Tower had a legendary battle pet warrior who claimed to be the God of Wine guarding the Tower when no one dared to cause trouble. But there was no legendary battle pet warrior guarding the Deep Caves. The more he thought about it, the more he found the Tower disgusting.
Yun Wanli noticed the mockery in Su Ping's words. He looked around and murmured to himself, "No way. No way. No matter how arrogant the Tower is, they would never underestimate this place. Once all the wild beasts come out, the entire world will be lost. Mankind will face the end of the world!"
"There must be … another reason."
Yun Wanli thought about the beasts that had attacked his battle pets. The more he thought about it, the more he found the situation strange.
Those beasts were all at the beast king level, but they were hiding in the tunnel. If there weren't any legendary battle pet warriors guarding the place, why didn't those beast kings go back to the surface?
The Valiant Academy should have been destroyed a long time ago.
The entire Longyang Base City should have been destroyed!
After all, the beast kings could have destroyed the Longyang Base City if they had rushed out of the cave without warning!
Su Ping glanced at Yun Wanli and frowned. After thinking for a while, he said, "I want to continue searching for my sister inside. If you feel that it is dangerous, please go back first. If you really run into trouble, I may not be able to take care of you."
Yun Wanli came back to his senses. It was strange to hear a titled battle pet warrior talking to a legendary battle pet warrior.
However, when he thought of Su Ping's previous combat strength, he could only smile bitterly in his heart. If he were to encounter danger inside, he would indeed need to rely on Su Ping's help.
"Since I'm here, I'll accompany Renegade Su. Anyway, I'm just a bag of old bones. If Su Renegade isn't afraid at such a young age, why should I be?"
Yun Wanli said with a smile. He seemed to be very proud of himself.
Su Ping darted him a glance. "I see that the Tower is a tough nut to crack."
"Hmm." Yun Wanli forced a smile. He knew that Su Ping didn't like the Tower very much.
Su Ping didn't say anything else. He told the Inferno Dragon to step into the tunnel.
As soon as they stepped into the tunnel, Su Ping felt something was different. He couldn't tell exactly what it was. It was as if the atmosphere had changed.
It was as if they had stepped into the territory of some extremely dangerous creature.
Su Ping was worried. After all, they were in the Deep Caves that even the Tower was afraid of. Since the beginning of the era of astral pets, the Deep Caves hadn't been completely cured. He wouldn't be surprised if there were Star Rank creatures in there.
Yun Wanli was just as worried. He told the Cracking Rock Dragon to summon several Black Crystal Shields to cover him and Su Ping. The Inferno Dragon turned around and looked at Yun Wanli when the Black Crystal Shields were about to reach its body. The Inferno Dragon seemed to be unhappy. However, after being comforted by Su Ping, the Inferno Dragon let the Cracking Rock Dragon do whatever it wanted.
"Be careful. Something is wrong here."
Su Ping suddenly reminded Yun Wanli. He had seen tens of thousands of beast kings in many cultivation sites. He was familiar with all kinds of rare skills. At the moment, he felt something was wrong. It was too quiet. Even the sound of the wind seemed to have disappeared.
He didn't sense any living creatures, not even the tiniest insects!
"Old Wan, be careful."
The Winged Wind Listener warned Yun Wanli.
Yun Wanli's expression changed slightly. He glanced at the Cracking Rock Dragon Beast. Without hesitation, he merged with the Cracking Rock Dragon Beast. Soon, he transformed into a four to five-meter-tall humanoid dragon with a thick rock dragon tail on his back. His hands turned into dragon claws and his body was covered in scales.
As soon as Yun Wanli merged with his pet, the ground around him began to tremble. Many black chains shot out from the ground from all over the place.
Those chains were thick and they came out of nowhere. They wrapped around the Ghost Eye in an instant.
The Ghost Mist Eye Beast let out a roar and its body turned into mist. It wanted to break free, but after its body turned into mist, the chains still firmly locked its body!
"Danger!"
The Winged Wind Listener came back to its senses. It screamed and hurried to dodge the chains. The Winged Wind Listener used its ultimate skill, Nine Flashes.
However, the next second, the nine shadows were all crushed by the black chains. One of the shadows was tied up by the chains and was soon wrapped up like a dumpling.
The chains were fast. The moment they were shot out, they disappeared into thin air and reached the target.
The chains were capable of teleportation!
Yun Wanli, who had merged with his pet, was terrified. He hurried to put his palms together. Energy surged out and many black crystal shields were erected around him, trying to stop the chains.
However, the chains disappeared from the crystal shields and reappeared next to Yun Wanli, tying him up.
In a matter of seconds, Yun Wanli and his two battle pets were bound and unable to fight back.
On the other hand, a large number of chains were flying toward the Inferno Dragon and Su Ping. The Inferno Dragon didn't seem to have time to react before it was bound by the chains.
All of a sudden, the moment the Inferno Dragon was bound, violent flames surged out from its body. There was a dark purple glow in the flames. The Inferno Dragon let out a furious roar. With a bang, all the chains around the Inferno Dragon were broken. Some of the chains even showed signs of melting.
As for the chains that were aimed at Su Ping, Su Ping didn't move. The Little Skeleton flew up and cut the chains with its bone blade.
As the Inferno Dragon broke free from the chains, the ground began to rumble. The next second, a majestic and ferocious beast crawled out from the ground. Those chains were actually part of the beast's body. They hung all over the beast's body like tentacles. The beast's mouth was made up of several fleshy pads, which were full of barbed teeth.
"A Chained Ghost Beast!"
Su Ping recognized the beast right away.
This was a rare beast king, a type of demon beast that lived in the realm of the undead. The Chained Ghost Beast fed on advanced undead creatures and ghosts. The Chained Ghost Beast was one of those skills. The Chained Ghost Beast was the bane of all pets of the undead family. Any pet of the energy type could not escape from the Chained Ghost Beast.
However, the Chained Ghost Beast was not as effective as the Inferno Dragon, which had a physical body.
The Chained Ghost Beast was a beast king with a Fate State bloodline. It was said that there was a small chance that the Chained Ghost Beast could evolve into a Ghost Beast of the Star Rank, or even the legendary Pluto Emperor!
"This one isn't at the peak. I think it's only at the Void State."
Su Ping had seen the Chained Ghost Beast in the Chaotic Realm of the Undead. The Chained Ghost Beast in front of him didn't look like one at its peak, judging from its size and aura.
Time was not enough for a beast king to reach the peak of its strength. It had to be in a suitable environment and with the help of rare materials. Otherwise, even with the upper limit of a Fate State bloodline, the Chained Ghost Beast would never reach the ceiling of its bloodline.
"This is just the entrance. I can't believe there is such a rare beast king here." A glint of coldness flashed in his eyes. He was even more afraid of the Deep Caves. However, he was interested in taming the Chained Ghost.
The Chained Ghost Beast was worth taming.
The Inferno Dragon was as rare as the Inferno Dragon was among the battle pets below the king level, or even more rare than it was among the battle pets below the king level!
"Beast-catching Rings!"
Whoosh!
Su Ping took out two black rings. He didn't throw them out directly. Instead, he sent a message to the Little Skeleton.
The chances of catching the Chained Ghost Beast would be higher when the latter was heavily wounded.
The Little Skeleton immediately understood. With a whoosh, its body flashed out in an extremely decisive manner. The bone saber in its hand was filled with dense dark energy. Its entire body was emitting an extremely ferocious and ferocious killing intent. This killing intent was so dense that it completely covered its snow-white bones, making them faintly discernible.
For a moment, the Little Skeleton felt as if it were a demon from hell!
Bang!
The blade covered in dark energy emitted a dazzling glow as it cut at the Chained Ghost's head.
The Chained Ghost bellowed. The space above its head collapsed and a swirl appeared, trying to tear the Little Skeleton apart.
But in the next moment, the swirl froze. Even the Chained Ghost stopped moving. The Little Skeleton, on the other hand, was not affected by the swirl at all. The Little Skeleton swung his saber at the Chained Ghost even more fiercely and swiftly.
Punishment of Sins!
That was one of the Little Skeleton's skills.
The glow of the blade didn't cut off the Chained Ghost's head. Instead, the Chained Ghost was pressed to the ground like a mountain. The glow of the blade above the Chained Ghost's head was like a badge of judgment.
The Chained Ghost stopped moving. The Chained Ghost's consciousness had been pulled into the Little Skeleton's space of consciousness. That was a chaotic space where only the Chained Ghost and the Little Skeleton were present. The Chained Ghost and the Little Skeleton were facing each other. The next second, the Little Skeleton's body surged. In the blink of an eye, the Little Skeleton had turned into a king of skeletons.
The Little Skeleton sat on the ground, using the mountains and rivers as its throne of bones.
The Little Skeleton was invincible!
The Chained Ghost was terrified. It bellowed as if it was trying to show off its power. However, the bellow sounded more like a wounded puppy.
The Little Skeleton's huge hand covered the Chained Ghost's vision and caught the Chained Ghost.
The Chained Ghost was paralyzed with fear.
At the same time, back in the real world, the Little Skeleton had put away the bone blade. The flames in the Little Skeleton's eyes died down. The Little Skeleton darted a glance at the Chained Ghost that had lost all its strength and then went back to Su Ping.
Su Ping was surprised to see the Little Skeleton subduing the Chained Ghost with one strike. Ever since the Little Skeleton had awakened after absorbing the Skeleton King's blood, Su Ping hadn't tested the Little Skeleton's combat ability. The only thing he knew about the Little Skeleton was the number the System had given him.
However, the number was just a number. What Su Ping had just seen made him realize how powerful the Little Skeleton was.
"Come!"
Su Ping took out his Beast-catching Ring immediately.
Bang! The beast-catching ring hit the Chained Ghost Beast and created a dark space, sucking in the beast that had lost its ability to fight.
After the Chained Ghost was absorbed, the dark vortex shrank and turned into a black ring again. However, this time, the black ring was slightly different from before.
Su Ping waved his hand and took it back.
