The Dark Dragon Hound and the Purple Python had to follow after Su Ping, despite the pain.
The Dark Dragon Hound was doing better. After all, it had eaten half of the golden fruit and it was already strong enough to walk on all fours.
However, as they walked, the Dark Dragon Hound began to grimace again, as if the pain was unbearable.
Su Ping noticed that the Dark Dragon Hound's reaction was even more exaggerated than the Purple Python's. He glared at the Dark Dragon Hound. The Dark Dragon Hound had almost become an actor in order to suffer less.
The Purple Python was obviously a well-behaved one. It twisted its body like a ghost, rubbing against the ground and twitching. Even Su Ping felt like swaying along with it.
Not long after, Su Ping saw a ball of flames rising from the ground in the distance. Then, the ball of flames was quickly approaching them.
Su Ping was able to see clearly when the ball of flames came closer. That was a beast of the fire family. It was seven or eight meters tall and its fur and eyes were burning with flames. Even the fangs that were exposed were covered in flames. This was a beast of the fire family.
"A Flame Lion? Sh * t. How can there be such a big one? "
Su Ping stepped back without hesitation. He darted a look at the Dark Dragon Hound who was grimacing in pain. The Dark Dragon Hound happened to be looking at him as well. The moment their eyes met, the Dark Dragon Hound turned around and looked to the other side, as if it had found some important information and was concentrating on it.
The Purple Python was still twitching on the spot. It had no time to worry about the Flame Lion in the distance. Even if there were no other beasts, it would be difficult for the Purple Python to survive in that place.
"Dark Dragon Hound, you go."
Su Ping snorted and gave the order directly.
The Dark Dragon Hound turned around slowly and acted as if it had been wronged. However, Su Ping remained unmoved. The Dark Dragon Hound knew that acting pitiful would not work on this cold-blooded man. The Dark Dragon Hound howled and turned its attention to the Flame Lion. The Dwarf Goddess and the Goddess of Earth appeared again.
The skills of the stone family and the wind family were not affected by the Dark Dragon Hound.
The strongest was the Fire Attribute skill, Goddess of Flames' Shield!
A gigantic, round shield of fire that was a hundred meters tall appeared in front of the Dark Dragon Hound like a giant wall. The flames on the edge of the shield were still expanding.
Su Ping raised his eyebrows. The strength of this fire-type defensive skill was more than twice as strong as when used in other places.
Roar!
In front of them, a roar sounded. The flames on the Giant Flame Lion's body suddenly surged out and turned into the shape of a lion. It was the first to run over and hit the Goddess of Flames' divine shield.
Boom! Flames burst out from the divine shield and surrounded the lion that was formed by the flames. The bursting flames were like countless blades that swept towards the lion!
Immediately after, a giant flaming hand suddenly attacked and slapped the Goddess of Flames' shield, causing the divine shield to cave in.
"You can't just take a beating. The Little Skeleton is not here. You have to take care of it for me," Su Ping said grumpily.
The Dark Dragon Hound's ears twitched slightly, as if the words "Little Skeleton" had pricked it. It did not turn to look at Su Ping. The original resentment in its eyes was gone, and it became sharp and serious.
Roar!!
A dragon's roar suddenly burst out, accompanied by a wolf-like howl that resounded for dozens of miles. Then, a strong golden divine power emerged, and a giant statue of a goddess covered in flames gathered behind the Dark Dragon Hound. It held a divine bow in its hand, and an arrow made of flames condensed and aimed at the Giant Flame Lion.
Bang!
The divine arrow suddenly shot out, creating flames along the way. In the blink of an eye, it was in front of the Giant Flame Lion.
The Giant Flame Lion sensed the danger and roared. Two giant flaming claws suddenly extended from the ground on both sides of its body and slapped at the divine arrow.
The two giant claws and the arrow turned into sparks and disappeared at the same time. But the Giant Flame Lion was not slowed down at all.
Su Ping did not just stand there and watch. Without the Little Skeleton, his battle pets were not as strong as before. He had to do it himself.
Besides, pet training was secondary. Otherwise, he could have asked the Dark Dragon Hound and the Purple Python to take care of the Giant Flame Lion.
Whoosh!
Su Ping dashed out. He exerted his full strength right off the bat. The Force Field appeared behind him, carrying with it endless killing intent. At the same time, he exerted his physical strength to the extreme. He felt his veins were burning. That was the power of the Golden Crow.
He swung his sword!
Whoosh!
The wind stopped. The sword ray was dark. Infused with the power of the Golden Crow, the sword ray cut down the Giant Flame Lion's head like a mountain.
The Giant Flame Lion came to a sudden stop. The two balls of flames in its eyes contracted. Then, a large amount of flames gushed out from its body.
Whoosh!
The sword ray fell but Su Ping felt that it had hit nothing.
The sword was separated from the Giant Flame Lion. The Giant Flame Lion turned into a ball of fire and fled to the sides. In the blink of an eye, it gathered dozens of meters away and turned back into a lion.
The Giant Flame Lion darted one look at Su Ping and ran away.
While it was running, the Giant Flame Lion's body changed from that of a lion. It became more slender and ran faster. The Giant Flame Lion kept flashing as it ran away. It was about to disappear from Su Ping's sight.
Su Ping didn't go after it. After the Giant Flame Lion was completely gone, he had to put away his sword and disperse his killing intent.
"Damn, it's so hot!"
Su Ping pressed his hand to his chest. His heart was so hot that he couldn't stand it.
He was glad that he hadn't done any strenuous exercise. As soon as he attacked, he felt that his blood was boiling and his heart was twitching. The pain was unbearable.
He took a deep breath but he still felt hot.
"Let's keep going." Su Ping bit his teeth. He didn't think it was possible to lower his temperature by adjusting his breath. To him, the world there was like a huge furnace. As time went by, he would only get hotter and hotter until he was completely melted.
The Dark Dragon Hound removed many of its defensive skills. White smoke was rising from its fur. The Dark Dragon Hound stuck out its tongue and breathed heavily.
Su Ping looked at the Dark Dragon Hound and told it to keep following him.
The Dark Dragon Hound shook its head after seeing that Su Ping couldn't even straighten his back. The Dark Dragon Hound slowly followed him.
After about twenty minutes, Su Ping finally couldn't stand it any longer. He lost consciousness and fell down.
Soon, Su Ping regained his consciousness and reappeared in the revival space.
He chose to come back to life on the spot.
When he came back to life, he saw that the Dark Dragon Hound was dying and so was the Purple Python. Only the Inferno Dragon was in a better state, but it was also exhausted.
Su Ping had to tell them to keep going.
The Celestial Star was a barren place. All he could see was a world of lava. He endured the excruciating pain of being burned all the time. While he was moving forward, he had an idea. He wanted to go back, to go back to the comfortable store, to go back to the other cultivation sites.
That would be easier.
That way, he wouldn't have to suffer so much.
However, this thought only flashed for a moment before it was extinguished and did not appear again.
"What kind of monster is this?"
Su Ping saw a magnificent skeleton. He used the word "magnificent" because the skeleton was so huge that it was like a mountain!
Even the Inferno Dragon, which was over thirty meters tall, was less than one-tenth the size of a rib on the skeleton. It was like an ant.
Su Ping, on the other hand, was walking on the skeleton. Looking from afar, he was like a speck of dust.
If it weren't for the fact that he had seen some horrifying creatures in other cultivation sites, Su Ping would never have believed that such a huge creature could exist in the world.
Cry!
While Su Ping was walking on the skeleton, he suddenly heard a bird's cry in the sky.
That cry was ethereal and penetrating. Su Ping's heart raced when he heard it. He felt a burning sensation in his body. Was there some kind of … resonance?
Su Ping looked toward the source of the sound. He saw a huge golden bird flying toward him from the distance.
The tip of this golden divine bird's wings was surrounded by raging flames. Under its abdomen, there were actually three bird legs. Its body structure was not as gorgeous and peculiar as other bird beasts. Instead, it looked like an ordinary bird, just that its body was a little bigger. If one had to describe it, it looked more like a crow.
"Is that … the Golden Crow?"
Su Ping was stunned by the sight of the bird.
He had seen the Golden Crow in the cultivation method of the Solar Bulwark, and it looked exactly like the golden bird in front of him!
Seeing that the Golden Crow was about to fly over, Su Ping came back to his senses. He unleashed his strength and flashed away. In the blink of an eye, he was thousands of meters high in the sky.
However, the Golden Crow was fast. By the time Su Ping flashed to the sky, the Golden Crow, which was tens of thousands of meters away from Su Ping, was already ten thousand meters behind Su Ping.
Su Ping's sudden appearance caught the Golden Crow's attention.
The bird turned its sharp eyes and glanced at Su Ping.
Su Ping unleashed the strength of the Solar Bulwark. Soon, the bird slowed down. It turned around and flew back to Su Ping.
"The energy of the Golden Crow?"
A clear thought appeared in Su Ping's mind.
The bird didn't say anything, but Su Ping was able to tell that it was a girl's voice through the strange consciousness in his head.
He asked at once, "Are you the Solar Bulwark?"
"What kind of creature are you?"
The clear female voice appeared in Su Ping's mind again.
Su Ping answered, "I'm a human being. You may not know what a human is. Anyway, creatures like us are called humans. I'm here to look for something. I've been practicing the Golden Crows' method, so I'm sort of half a Golden Crow. I wonder if you can help me?"
"Human?"
The bird looked doubtful. It stared at Su Ping for a while and its eyes turned cold. "I don't know where you learned the Body Tempering Art of the Golden Crow. You deserve to die!"
Then, the temperature of the air rose.
Su Ping knew something was wrong when he saw the change in the bird's eyes. He was very sensitive to killing intent. But before he could explain, his mind suddenly went blank.
The next moment, Su Ping found that he was dead again. He was in the revival dimension.
"Revive on the spot!"
Su Ping made the choice.
As soon as he came back to life, the high temperature made Su Ping want to scream. He was trembling and grimacing.
"What?"
It was none other than the Golden Crow Divine Bird.
Su Ping was in great pain from the barbecue. He was so angry that he wanted to curse the bird. What the hell are you talking about?
"Stop struggling. You can't kill me," Su Ping shouted.
But when he said that, he felt like he was the villain. It was just that the latter part of his sentence was wrong.
The Golden Crow didn't buy it. Su Ping was turned into ashes again as soon as he finished his sentence.
Resurrection!
Death!
Resurrection!
Death!
"You have …"
"You have …"
"Are you done …"
"F * ck you …"
After a dozen times, Su Ping came back to life again. He felt the pain. In the blink of an eye, he had used up 9000 energy points. That was enough for him to enter a top cultivation site.
"I told you. You can't kill me," Su Ping said helplessly.
This time, the Golden Crow didn't do anything. It just stared at him in confusion.
It really couldn't kill him.
Was this "human being" that powerful?
The Golden Crow was surprised.
It had never heard of such a horrifying race on the Celestial Star, on the territory ruled by the Golden Crows!
That was horrifying!
No wonder the seniors in the family always said that the Celestial Star was their territory and that there were many dangerous places out there that could endanger the Golden Crows.
There was a reason for that!
This human was a dangerous fellow!
The Golden Crow was alarmed. It looked at Su Ping and wanted to turn around and fly away.
Su Ping didn't know what to say. All of a sudden, he felt that the Golden Crow wasn't that smart. The Golden Crow had to be at least at the Star Rank to be able to kill him in an instant. However, the Golden Crow didn't behave like the Star Rank creatures he had seen.
For example, the purple-blood dragon was a cunning old one. One look and Su Ping could tell that the purple-blood dragon was scheming. Su Ping couldn't tell what it was thinking from its eyes.
"I didn't steal the cultivation method. It was given to me by a senior member of the Golden Crow. That senior is indebted to me …" Su Ping said seriously. Since stealing was a capital offense, it should be acceptable to say that he had given the cultivation method away.
"Senior?"
The Golden Crow looked at him suspiciously. "Which senior? What does he look like? What is his name?"
"He looks like …"
Su Ping wanted to describe the Golden Crow, but he felt like vomiting blood. What does he look like? Doesn't he look like the Golden Crows? What difference is there in my eyes?
"He looks … like you." Su Ping had to admit. "I don't know what his name is. I think that senior called himself a system or something. I think he was joking. What kind of bird would come up with such a stupid name? Don't you think so?"
"You're lying!"
The Golden Crow said coldly as its expression changed.
Su Ping was surprised. Had he been exposed? Was it because he was making fun of the system?
He regretted it. He shouldn't have said that.
"In our Golden Crow Clan, my beauty is unparalleled. She definitely won't be like me," the Golden Crow Divine Bird said coldly.
"…"
Su Ping wanted to wipe his sweat, but he didn't have the courage to do so, considering how serious and murderous it sounded.
