At the end of the meeting, everyone began to work.
Li Yuanfeng and Ye Wuxiu went to the Tower to talk to Gu Siping about the cooperation with Su Ping.
Li Yuanfeng went alone. Ye Wuxiu was worried that a Void State warrior like him wouldn't have much say in front of Gu Siping, so he went with him.
Xiang Fengran, Qin Duhuang, and Xue Yunzhen led the other legendary battle pet warriors to contact the other three defense lines, ready to build the strongest defense line.
Site selection, construction plans, and so on were all being carried out.
Su Ping went back to the store while everyone was busy.
Workers were busy in the store, but those workers had been created by the system using energy. Otherwise, it would have been shocking to see such a huge change in the store.
Su Ping found Joanna drinking juice on the couch in the living room. Many functions in the store had been shut down and the nursing pens in the pet room were closed. Joanna seemed to have nothing to do at the moment. She was reading some fashion magazines.
"I need your help," Su Ping said as he dashed in.
Joanna raised her head. Her skin was as white as snow, as if it was glowing. She was as calm as ever and said, "You want me to help you deal with the beast tide? Unfortunately, I can't leave your shop. This is the rule you set for me."
Su Ping produced a forced smile.
Joanna still believed that he had set the rule. She didn't know that the rule was set by the system. He couldn't agree to make an exception just because he was softhearted.
"Teach me formations." Su Ping spoke his mind. "I want to learn some simple formations that can restrain beast kings. I don't want to kill them. I just want to stall them."
Joanna raised her eyebrows and darted a look at Su Ping. Is he still going to stick to the rules?
As a matter of fact, she wanted to go outside the store and see what kind of world Su Ping was living in.
She could tell that the astral powers in that world were weak, as if it were a barren world. Still, she was curious because she had never seen it with her own eyes.
"You want to learn formations? Sure, I'll teach you."
Joanna crossed her legs and said casually, "You want to stall the beast kings, right? Since you don't want to kill them, I'll teach you the basic trapping formation. It's not a problem to stall the average Ocean State beast kings, unless they have strong souls."
"Great!"
"I'll teach you an elementary 2-star trapping formation called the God Rippling Formation!"
Joanna said, "Once you step into this matrix, your soul will be trapped in an illusion. It requires a strong willpower to break it. It's not complicated to learn. When you learned the Heaven Lock Matrix, I taught you a lot of basics. I don't know if you've forgotten. Later, you just need to find the materials and you can set it up."
Su Ping nodded repeatedly. "Go on, I'm listening."
Joanna raised her hand and gently touched Su Ping's forehead. It was warm and soft, and there was a faint fragrance in it.
The next moment, all the distracting thoughts in front of him were thrown away. He felt a huge amount of complicated information surging into his brain. Fortunately, his willpower was quite strong. Although it was a bit uncomfortable, he soon adapted and digested it.
After a long time, Su Ping opened his eyes again. There was clarity and delight in his eyes.
"What is this? How did she pass the knowledge of the formation to me?" Su Ping couldn't help but look at Joanna. It was obvious that she wanted to teach him the Heaven Lock as well since she had been able to reach him so quickly.
Joanna noticed the familiar look in Su Ping's eyes. She said grumpily, "You're insatiable again. This method is only suitable for the simple things. If it's too complicated, your head will explode. If it's not, your memory will be messed up and you will become sluggish.
"Besides, given my current level of cultivation, I can only pass on simple things like that."
Su Ping was speechless. He curled his lips.
A formation that could trap a beast king was just a simple thing …
Unfortunately, he would have to find time to learn the rest of the Heaven Lock Matrix.
But time waited for no one. Otherwise, he would have considered unlocking the divine formation and releasing the sealed land once he fully grasped it. The size of the Blue Planet would increase by then, which might be a good thing. At the very least, it would take the beast kings more time to arrive from the ocean.
"Thank you. I have to go." Su Ping stood up.
"Hmm." Joanna snorted. "At least you know how to thank me."
Su Ping left in a hurry. He quickly left the store and found the Qin Family's building. He asked an Old member of the Qin family to contact Mr. Qin.
Soon, Mr. Qin picked up the call. He was still in the base city.
Su Ping immediately told him about the materials he needed to set up a divine formation. Qin Duhuang, who had lived on the surface for a long time, was more informed and had more connections. Xue Yunzhen and Jing Shen, for example, were at the Void State, but they had been stationed in the Deep Caves for too many years. Their connections on the surface were almost cut off.
"I'll draw you the real thing later. Find it for me as soon as possible. Do whatever it takes. Use your identity or your strength. This is of utmost importance!" Su Ping said.
Mr. Qin became nervous after hearing Su Ping's solemn tone. He didn't dare to hesitate.
Mr. Qin didn't even blink when he sold 40 beast kings at the advanced stage of the Void State, but he was concerned about those things. Su Ping didn't have to say anything. Mr. Qin could tell how important those things were.
When the call ended, the elder of the Qin family beside him quickly handed over a pen and paper. He was quick-witted.
"Smart." Su Ping couldn't help but praise him. "Get me a pen or pencil. I want something realistic. Also, get me some A4 paper."
"Yes, sir." The Old member of the Qin family hurried to accept the order. Su Ping's praise made him smile.
Soon, a box of pencils was delivered. Su Ping quickly began to draw. Given his control over his body, he could draw anything in his mind without any mistake. His fingers were very steady.
In the blink of an eye, many lifelike drawings appeared. They were all the materials he needed to set up the Shaking God Formation.
Su Ping was worried that the names might be different places. However, the real things were all the same. It would be difficult to find the wrong materials.
"Print these out and give them to Mr. Qin. Tell him to find them as soon as possible," Su Ping said at once.
"Yes, Mr. Su," the Old member of the Qin family said at once.
Su Ping left the Qin Family's building and went back to his store. Xue Yunzhen and Xiang Fengran had gone to the other two defense lines to discuss the alliance. Su Ping wasn't worried about anything with them there. He just had to wait for news from them. His presence wouldn't be of much help.
"Teach me the Ten Directional Heaven Lock."
At this critical moment, Su Ping realized that he had some free time. He went to Joanna at once.
Although he had some free time, it was unrealistic for him to go to the other continents at the moment. After all, it would take him a long time to go back and forth. Besides, the Dragon Swamp Continent had been destroyed. He wouldn't be of any help even if he went there. As for sweeping across the Subcontinent District, he had already cleared the east side. Xue Yunzhen and the others had reported to him that they had found many hidden wild beasts.
There shouldn't be many left. Even if there were, they would be well-hidden and he wouldn't bother to look for them.
It would be more important if he could learn the Heaven Lock before the wild beasts arrived!
"You've almost learned it." Joanna looked at Su Ping but didn't say anything else. She patiently explained the formation to him.
…
In the north, at the Tower.
Legend the Drunken was sitting in a crack in space, sipping wine and gazing at the falling snow with worry.
All of a sudden, two people approached him. It was Li Yuanfeng and Ye Wuxiu.
"It's you!" Legend the Drunken thought they were beasts at first, but he stood up in joy when he saw who they were.
Li Yuanfeng saw the bottle in Legend the Drunken was holding. "Three continents have fallen. You're a legendary battle pet warrior of the Tower and you're still in the mood to drink? Do you think the Tower needs you to guard it? You're a legendary battle pet warrior and you're enjoying yourself by being a doorman! "
Legend of the Wine God's face changed when he heard the harsh reprimand. He sniffed with his red nose and smiled bitterly, "Senior Li, this is the job that the Peak Master gave me. I can't refuse. I also told the Peak Master that I want to go to the front line, but …"
"Let's go. Let's go to the Tower Master first."
Ye Wuxiu interrupted him and glanced at him coldly. He was not interested in listening to him.
No matter how much he said, they were all excuses. What was the point?
He was a legendary battle pet warrior who enjoyed the respect of the world and yet he was there to guard the Tower. Anyone with a bit of pride would not be willing to live such a life.
Legend the Drunken pulled a long face. He watched as the two entered the Mysterious Realm. His face twitched and he seemed to be in deep thought.
They entered the Mysterious Realm.
Li Yuanfeng and Ye Wuxiu flew out at once and used their senses to search every floating island for Gu Siping.
They flew on and soon, they found Gu Siping on the largest floating island where he lived and cultivated.
At the moment, Gu Siping was sitting on a stone tea stool in front of the cottage with a pale face. A huge battle pet was lying next to him. There was a long wound on the side of the battle pet's abdomen, almost cutting the entire abdomen open. The white part of the battle pet's black and white fur had been dyed red.
The wound had healed but it was still a ghastly sight.
Seeing this scene, Li Yuanfeng and Ye Wuxiu looked at each other, and the anger in their hearts dissipated a little.
Clearly, Gu Siping had not been sitting there the whole time. He had participated in the battle as well.
"Tower Master."
"Tower Master."
The two of them landed and bowed respectfully.
Gu Siping looked at them and forced a bitter smile. "I heard from Le Yan that you're not happy with me as the Tower Master and you went to see that legendary battle pet warrior named Su Ping … Indeed, I have failed in my duty as the Tower Master, given the current situation in the world …"
There was bitterness and loneliness in his eyes as he spoke.
Ye Wuxiu frowned and lowered his head. "Tower Master, we didn't mean anything else. We just wanted to gather some information …"
He didn't explain further. After all, they all knew what was going on. An explanation on the surface was just an excuse.
"The Dragon Swamp Continent has fallen as well. Of the five continents in the world, only two are left. I think we have to save at least one continent. I suggest we send people to the Rumbling Thunder Continent and gather them in the Subcontinent District. As for the three defense lines in the Subcontinent District, I think we should combine them into one!" he said firmly and looked into Gu Siping's eyes.
Although his cultivation level was lower, his eyes were bright, firm, and fearless at this moment.
Gu Siping raised his head and gazed at him. Then, he looked at the teacup in front of him and said, "I've sent people to the Rumbling Thunder Continent, including my battle pet. They've built a long-distance space channel over there that can slowly bring people over. However, the number of people that can be received is …"
He heaved a sigh and changed the subject. "Based on the current situation, the Subcontinent District should be united. This time, the wild beasts in the Deep Caves are more serious than I thought. Anyway, we won't lose. Trust me!"
Ye Wuxiu and Li Yuanfeng were both stunned. Looking at his confident and resolute eyes, they felt that there was a hint of excitement and excitement in his eyes.
Well … They were confused. They didn't know if it was just their imagination, but the excitement was as if he was looking forward to something.
"Sir, your wounds … Did you go out to fight?" Li Yuanfeng asked in a low voice even though he already knew the answer.
Gu Siping heaved a sigh. "I went to reinforce the Dragon Swamp Continent, but … I ran into a Fate State beast and couldn't finish it off quickly. Instead, I attracted a few more and had to return in defeat. But I didn't lose anything. At least I killed one!"
Fate State …
That word was hammering Ye Wuxiu and Li Yuanfeng's hearts.
"Sir, I'm so glad you're okay." Li Yuanfeng heaved a sigh.
Ye Wuxiu nodded. "Sir, the Deep Caves are sweeping across the world. I think we should work together. I heard that there's a guy called Su Ping who has some issues with the Tower. I don't know the details, but I've met him and I don't think he's a bad guy. He's a man of justice. I think we should work together!"
Gu Siping raised his eyebrows. He curled his lips and nodded. "Of course. The most important thing is to deal with the wild beasts. What can be more hateful than the alien races? I've long forgotten about that Su Ping. It was all a misunderstanding. He was young and reckless. He killed two legendary battle pet warriors in a row and then he left the Tower. He said he wanted to be a free man and he didn't follow the Tower's orders. He wanted to serve in the Deep Caves …
"But he is talented. He has potential. If he can survive this strike, he will reach the Fate State. Therefore, I didn't pursue the matter when he left."
Li Yuanfeng and Ye Wuxiu looked at each other. Two legendary battle pet warriors in the Tower? They hadn't heard about that. They only knew that Su Ping had left the Tower and that he had some conflicts with the Tower.
They didn't know that Su Ping had done something so shocking.
The Tower was the headquarters of legendary battle pet warriors. How dare he kill two legendary battle pet warriors in the Tower!
Li Yuanfeng and Li Yuanfeng remembered the number of Void State battle pets that Su Ping had sold. That guy was a lunatic that couldn't be judged by common sense.
"Sir, I'm glad that you didn't pursue the matter. We're gathered in the Longjiang Base City, Brother SU's hometown. I hope that you can come and lead the legendary battle pet warriors to the last line of defense. Together, we will protect the last hope of mankind!" Ye Wuxiu said to Gu Siping.
Gu Siping raised his eyebrows. "No problem. I will be there."
"Sir, you're a great man!"
Ye Wuxiu was relieved. He bowed to Gu Siping with a smile.
Gu Siping waved his hand and said, "You meritorious subjects who serve the Abyss for free, there is no need to be courteous with me. Your contributions to humanity are greater than mine."
"Sir, you're too kind," Ye Wuxiu said at once.
Gu Siping smiled. All of a sudden, he coughed and took a deep breath. "You can go now. I need to rest and then I'll gather everyone."
