As the Chained Ghost Beast was subdued, Yun Wanli, the Winged Wind Listener, and the Ghost Fog Eye all regained their freedom.
"What is that …?"
Yun Wanli stared at Su Ping, still in a daze. When he was tied up, he had already felt a strong force from the space. He thought he was going to die. However, as soon as Su Ping made a move, the situation was reversed. That ferocious beast was tamed effortlessly.
The dark space that Su Ping threw out made Yun Wanli's heart skip a beat. It was as if there was something horrifying inside.
Su Ping put away the black ring and darted a glance at Yun Wanli. He noticed the fear on Yun Wanli's face but didn't mind.
The beast-catching ring could capture beasts as well as humans.
After all, it was something that he had bought from the system store.
According to the system, everything was a pet. Even Joanna, a god, was no exception. Naturally, humans were no exception.
Whoosh!
Su Ping told the Little Skeleton to keep an eye out for him. Then, he poured his consciousness into the black beast-catching ring.
Inside was a dark space that looked like a vast ocean. Its boundaries could not be seen. In the darkness, there seemed to be a surging tide.
At this moment, the only place that could be seen clearly was the center of this space. Chains were intertwined with an extremely huge demonic beast, imprisoning it in midair.
This demonic beast was the Chained Ghost Beast!
Looking at the beast that was completely immobilized by the chains, Su Ping's mental projection flew to it and asked, "Have you ever seen a girl like this?"
He waved his hand and the image of Su Lingyue appeared in front of him.
The space there was between consciousness and reality. He could manifest his consciousness directly.
The Chained Ghost rolled its eyes and glared at Su Ping. "Let go of me, you filthy worm!" It bellowed.
"Answer my questions if you want to get out," Su Ping said.
"Get lost!"
The Chained Ghost bellowed.
Su Ping didn't get angry. Most beasts were hot-tempered and he was used to it. "You should be aware of your current situation. Killing you is a piece of cake for me. If you don't want to die, tell me the truth and I can spare your life."
The Chained Ghost glared at him but didn't lose its temper.
Death was a great deterrent.
"This insect sneaked in from here. If you want to find her, go inside!" The Chained Ghost rolled its eyes and said grimly.
Su Ping stared at him in silence for a moment before he said, "Of course I'll go there. I'll go there even if you say that she's dead. Unless I see it with my own eyes, I'll find her even if I have to turn this place upside down."
"You're talking big. Go." The Chained Ghost sneered.
Su Ping stared at it for two seconds and said, "There used to be legendary battle pet warriors here, right? Why are they gone now? Did you kill them or did they leave?"
The Chained Ghost Beast sneered, "Of course they were killed by us. This place has long been our territory. You guys …"
Then, something occurred to the Chained Ghost. It paused and stared at Su Ping. "I have told you where that worm went. Can you let me out now?"
"Not yet."
Su Ping said. He stared at the Chained Ghost for a while and left the beast-catching ring.
"Hmm, I knew it. What a cunning bug. But you're nothing compared to me …" The Chained Ghost sneered. It had expected that Su Ping wouldn't release it. The Chained Ghost didn't feel disappointed or angry. However, it looked at the chains on its body and felt distressed.
The chains were too tight. The Chained Ghost realized that it couldn't break free no matter how hard it tried.
The energy in its body seemed to be restrained by these chains, and it couldn't use it at all.
"I will eat you first when I get out!" the Chained Ghost said to itself.
…
Su Ping's consciousness came back to him.
Standing on the Inferno Dragon's shoulder, he was deep in thought.
He didn't know how much of the Chained Ghost's words could be trusted.
The Chained Ghost was talking about the legendary battle pet warriors.
As for Su Lingyue …
Su Ping would go there no matter whether he was dead or alive. He wouldn't hesitate even if the Chained Ghost was trying to lure him into the Deep Caves.
If his family was in the Deep Caves, he would light up the way home, even if it was the darkest place.
"Renegade Su, let's …"
Yun Wanli moved closer and looked at Su Ping carefully.
He didn't dare to ask about that strange dark space. That thing could devour that horrifying beast in an instant. It was most likely one of Su Ping's trump cards. Yun Wanli wished that he hadn't seen that. If it was a crucial trump card, maybe Su Ping would kill him.
Su Ping came back to his senses and looked at him. "Let's keep going."
"Sure." Yun Wanli nodded.
Su Ping looked at the Deep Caves in front of him. Both sides of the tunnel led to darkness. He thought about it and randomly chose the tunnel on the right.
Whoosh!
To be on the safe side, Su Ping summoned the Dark Dragon Hound as well.
Phew!
The Dark Dragon Hound jumped out from the swirl. It stretched itself and went to the Inferno Dragon as soon as it saw Su Ping.
"Go and lead the way," Su Ping said to the Dark Dragon Hound.
The Dark Dragon Hound was about to play up to Su Ping when it heard Su Ping's order. The Dark Dragon Hound shuddered and begged Su Ping.
Su Ping rolled his eyes. The Dark Dragon Hound had the strongest defense but it was more resilient than the Inferno Dragon. It was the Dark Dragon Hound that was most afraid of death.
"Just do it," Su Ping said grumpily.
Seeing that Su Ping had made up his mind, the Dark Dragon Hound gave up on begging. The Dark Dragon Hound threw a resentful look at Su Ping and then slowly ran to the front to lead the way.
Yun Wanli was surprised to see the Dark Dragon Hound. He was knowledgeable. He could tell at once that the Dark Dragon Hound … was it the Dark Dragon Hound?
A battle pet with a sixth-rank bloodline?
But it was different from the Dark Dragon Hound. The Dark Dragon Hound's body structure and aura gave Yun Wanli a sense of pressure.
"Is this guy really not from the Blue Star?"
Yun Wanli couldn't help but let his imagination run wild because of such a strange battle pet.
As the Dark Dragon Hound cleared the way, the only sound that could be heard was the sound of footsteps. Not long afterward, they heard the Dark Dragon Hound roaring.
Su Ping went after the Dark Dragon Hound.
Two beast kings were attacking the Dark Dragon Hound. One of them was hundreds of meters long and looked like a huge centipede. The other was a huge skeleton that was seven or eight meters tall and was wearing dark armor. It was the Undead Vanguard.
The Undead Vanguard was a beast that could only be born in the Undead World. It was born in a special environment where the undead aura was strong. The Undead Vanguard was at the peak of the Ocean State.
"Help."
Su Ping said.
Whoosh!
The Little Skeleton took the lead and dashed toward the Undead Vanguard.
Teleport! Kill!
A stunning saber light directly split the Undead Ghost Blade into two halves. His movements were vigorous and clean, and the battle ended in an instant.
On the other side, the Dark Dragon Hound tackled the other beast king that looked like a centipede to the ground and began to tear it apart.
Soon, the two beast kings were defeated.
Little Skeleton placed his hand on the bones of the ghost general. Wisps of dark aura flowed into Little Skeleton's body through the ghost general's body. Little Skeleton's entire body was shrouded in dark mist. After a long while, when Little Skeleton put down his hand, the dark mist dissipated.
Whoosh!
The Little Skeleton flew back to Su Ping and sat on the Inferno Dragon's shoulder.
Su Ping looked at the Dark Dragon Hound that was eating the centipede's head. "Let's go."
The Dark Dragon Hound was reluctant to leave. It jumped to the middle of the centipede's body, smashed a part of its shell, and took out a piece of green flesh. The Dark Dragon Hound ate it and continued to lead the way.
Yun Wanli was at a loss for words. The two beast kings had been killed in the blink of an eye. In the outside world, that would have been enough to make any base city feel as if they were facing a formidable enemy. But there, the two beast kings were just like two normal beasts. They died so easily that they didn't even cause a ripple.
…
They kept moving forward.
Along the way, apart from beast kings, Su Ping also ran into some advanced beasts. Most of them were at the ninth-rank and a few were at the eighth-rank.
The Dark Dragon Hound smashed all of them with its paw.
"Do you have a map?" Su Ping asked as they walked.
Yun Wanli shook his head. "The environment in the Deep Caves is harsh and it changes from time to time. Apart from the legendary battle pet warriors who guard the place all year round, no one can tell where the place is and we don't have a map."
Su Ping darted a glance at him. That was to say, Yun Wanli couldn't even be a guide.
Yun Wanli seemed to have noticed the disdain in Su Ping's eyes. He forced a hollow laugh.
Not long afterward, the Dark Dragon Hound sent him a signal of danger.
Su Ping was startled. The Dark Dragon Hound must have run into something big if it could make it feel danger.
"Let's go!"
He went after the Dark Dragon Hound.
Not long after, he felt as if he had passed through a water membrane. His vision was suddenly illuminated, and a bone-chilling wind was blowing at him from all directions.
In front of him was a glacier that stretched as far as the eye could see!
From the gloomy tunnel, he stepped onto a glacier!
Su Ping was surprised. There was no sun above the glacier, but the sky was blue and the snow was white. It was a perfect color.
"This is the Deep Caves of Ice."
Yun Wanli's voice was heard as he walked out from the ripples. He was still in the merged state with the Cracking Rock Dragon.
In this state, his defense was much stronger. Even if he couldn't react in time, he would still be able to defend himself.
"The Deep Caves of Ice?"
Su Ping frowned.
"Yes. There are five worlds in the Deep Caves. To be exact, there are five Hells!"
Yun Wanli continued, "All the wild beasts in the Deep Caves are imprisoned in those five worlds. It is said that the people who built the Deep Caves created those worlds so that the wild beasts would die out on their own. But some people say that this story is not credible. Anyway, there are five different worlds here. The Deep Caves that the Valiant Academy is guarding are closest to the Deep Caves of Ice.
"If we keep going, we will reach the Inferno World, which is an ocean of fire.
"But there is a pass at the border between the Inferno World and the Ice Field. There should be legendary battle pet warriors guarding there. We can go there and take a look."
Su Ping stared at him for two seconds and nodded. "Okay. Lead the way."
Yun Wanli nodded and said, "Just walk straight. Although this place looks vast and boundless, it actually has a boundary."
With that said, he hopped onto the back of the Winged Wind Listener. "There may be wild beasts hiding in the snow. Those wild beasts have been imprisoned here for years and have been assimilated. They are all beasts of the ice family. We will be attacked if we walk on the ground."
Su Ping nodded. He told the Inferno Dragon to fly up.
Ever since the Inferno Dragon absorbed the purple-blood dragon's bloodline, it had grown a pair of wings with purple flames, which gave it the ability to fly.
Whoosh!
Su Ping and Yun Wanli flew up. Su Ping saw the Dark Dragon Hound running in the snow but he didn't pay any attention to it.
Soon, the Dark Dragon Hound also flew up from the ground with the Dragon Form Technique.
"I hope I can see the seniors from the Tower …" Yun Wanli gazed into the distance, worried. He had a bad feeling about the fact that no one was guarding the border but there were wild beasts lying in ambush at the border.
