"A Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon?"
Su Ping recognized it from afar.
It was exactly a Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon with a Star State bloodline, a unique Astral Pet of Rhea.
However, only one in ten thousand Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons could unleash their full potential and grow to the Star State.
Even so, its Star State bloodline was still attractive; it would also reach the Void State as an adult and was one of the best lightning pets of its level, which was enough to attract countless battle pet warriors.
"A Fate State one …"
Su Ping looked at the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon, which roared out of the clouds and approached him in the blink of an eye. Su Ping sensed its level and became interested.
He didn't linger any longer and quickly took action.
After a boom, he punched the void and shattered the space around him. His fist was pushed forward by his magnificent astral power and landed right in front of the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon's eyes.
Roar!
The Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon was slightly surprised, not expecting its attack to be dispelled so easily. It roared and unleashed thousands of lightning bolts, turning it into a prison of lightning from which balls of lightning were shot out.
Boom, boom, boom, boom … Thunder rumbled in the sky. The golden fist exploded under the bombardment of the lightning balls, raising a chaotic storm of energy.
Whoosh!
Su Ping suddenly charged out of the storm of energy and charged at the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon with the Asura Divine Sword in hand!
The Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon's purple eyes were constricted in shock. It didn't expect that Su Ping would be bold enough to charge at it through the violent storm of energy. Even it would have been wounded if it had barged in, but Su Ping was completely unharmed!
Whoosh! Su Ping stepped into the secondary space and activated his super acceleration. He instantly appeared in front of the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon's head.
Sizzling thunder echoed; the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon was surrounded by an invisible field of lightning, which was its defensive skill. Su Ping was entangled by the lightning bolts when he stepped in.
However, his resistance to lightning had been improved to the special level when he grasped "Boom" during the Heavenly Tribulation. He wasn't hurt at all even though he was surrounded by lightning. He pointed his sword at the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon's head with a cold sword aura.
The intense killing intent seemed to be piercing into its skull.
Checkmate!
The Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon was about to unleash its energy and skills when it sensed the terrifying killing intent in front of its head. It narrowed its eyes and stared at the human being in fright.
It had been defeated in less than half a minute!
"Appraise!"
Su Ping released the Pet Identification Skill he had acquired from the system. The basic information of the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon popped up in his head.
Combat strength: 58!
Cultivation: Fate State!
Aptitude Aptitude: Low
… So low!
Su Ping commented in his heart. He didn't expect that the Fate State Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon wouldn't even have a low-high aptitude.
Losing interest, Su Ping withdrew his killing intent and his sword, then returned to the Inferno Dragon and continued moving forward.
The Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon's purple eyes finally woke up after Su Ping withdrew his sword. It was stunned to see Su Ping leave. That human … didn't kill it?
How is it possible?
It had just realized that the human was capable of killing it!
Why did he let it go just like that?
Also … He didn't capture it?
The Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon was stunned and at a loss.
On the other hand, Su Ping had already flown away. He followed the straight line on the map and headed for the central area of the Rumbling Thunder Continent.
It would be great if I could appraise them remotely. Su Ping felt regretful. That would have saved him a lot of trouble and allowed him to quickly screen the beasts.
Even though the system's Appraisal Skill was pretty good, it was limited by distance and cultivation. Only demonic beasts with lower cultivation than him could be appraised from a distance. Demonic beasts with the same or higher cultivation as him were limited by distance and could only be appraised from a close distance.
Besides, the best pets he could appraise were Fate State beasts. The information he could get from appraising Star State beasts was limited.
A few minutes later, Su Ping ran into more beasts, all of which were beast kings.
There were a lot of other beasts in the Rumbling Thunder Continent apart from the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon. However, the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon was the dominator of the place. Their numbers weren't as many as Su Ping had imagined.
…
Half an hour later.
The Inferno Dragon flew by under the dark clouds.
Su Ping was already able to see the Thunderous Dragon Mountain while sitting on its shoulder.
The Thunderous Dragon Mountain was like a gigantic volcano. Its peak seemed to be piercing through the clouds, which was actually the case. Some of the purer Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons lived at the top of the mountain, which was surrounded by thunderclouds all year round. It was the best environment for them to cultivate while lying down, since they fed on lightning.
Su Ping had slain a lot of beasts during the half-hour journey. He had run into a couple of Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons. One of them didn't know what was good for it; it charged at Su Ping for revenge after being defeated and released, only to be killed by him.
What Su Ping felt regretful was that the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons he encountered along the way only had low-low and mid-level aptitudes. None of them had low-high aptitudes.
Outside of the Thunderous Dragon Mountain was a vast forest of Thunderous Trees.
The entire forest was purple in color. The plants were called Thunder Wood, which could withstand normal thunderbolts and conduct electricity. Thunder Wood was a favorite pet food for pets of the thunder family. Among them, the thousand-year-old Thunder Wood could be sold at a decent price.
Of course, it wouldn't be worth paying ten million just to collect the Thunderous Wood. After all, collecting the Thunderous Wood was as dangerous as hunting the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons; it would be better to hunt them.
A lot of beasts of the thunder family lived in the Thunderous Woods. Some of the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons liked to live there too.
The forest was lush and tall. Some of the Thunderous Trees were hundreds of meters tall, and some were even a thousand meters tall. The Thunderous Wood at the heart of such trees was already thousands of years old; it was an important material for making secret treasures of the thunder family.
However, this type of Lightning Tree was usually occupied by some powerful Demonic Beasts as nests.
Su Ping sensed the auras of many wild beasts lurking in the forest the moment he approached. He asked the Inferno Dragon to conceal its aura, as they were already close to the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons' nest. Once a battle broke out, all of the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons would be mobilized. Star State dragon kings might be among them!
Whoosh!
Su Ping asked the Inferno Dragon to fly into the forest and then return it to his contract space; it was too big to hide.
Su Ping summoned the Little Skeleton and asked it to follow him, so that they could quickly merge and escape in case of an emergency.
After the Little Skeleton came out, Su Ping used the Mist Concealment Technique to conceal his aura. Even a Fate State beast would find it difficult to detect him if they were standing close to him!
Su Ping entered the secondary space and quickly moved through the forest.
Occasionally, he would alert the beasts lurking in the forest; he would then use his super acceleration to quickly get rid of them again.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Su Ping moved quickly through the Thunderous Woods like a tiny ghost.
After moving for a hundred kilometers, Su Ping suddenly sensed a familiar energy wave on his left. He sensed it carefully and found that it was similar to divine energy!
Su Ping was quite surprised. Divine energy was something that could only be found in the divine system's world. Why was there such energy there?
He immediately concealed his aura and snuck over.
Soon, Su Ping arrived behind a large tree. He peered through the purple leaves that were four or five meters long and saw an extremely thick Ancient Thunder Tree in an open space. There were some golden leaves among the leaves of the Ancient Thunder Tree. The Ancient Thunder Tree was emitting a golden glow.
There was a hole below the tree's roots. Seven Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons were crouching outside the hole and surrounding the tree.
Su Ping sensed carefully and found that all the dragons were in the Fate State!
Seven Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons were guarding the tree!
"This Thunder Wood seems to have mutated. There is a divine aura in it …" Su Ping was surprised. Judging from the size of this ancient Thunder Wood, he estimated that it had lived for more than ten thousand years. It was huge, with a height of one or two thousand meters, like a mountain!
While he was thinking about whether or not he should take the tree away, a small beast jumped out from the hole under the tree. It was a small beast, but it was more than a dozen meters tall.
It was also a Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon, but what surprised Su Ping was that its scales were white. It was a white-scaled Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon!
The small beast seemed to be quite happy after it broke out of the hole. It quickly climbed up the tree.
The seven Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons nearby were all alarmed. They raised their heads but didn't stop it.
At this moment, the hole trembled, and a gigantic head popped out. It was a white-scaled serpent.
The serpent turned its head and saw the small beast that was climbing up the tree. It quickly slithered forward and dragged the small beast down so that it could land on its enormous body.
The white-scaled serpent was at least five hundred meters long. The small beast wasn't even enough to fill the gaps between its teeth.
The white-scaled serpent grabbed the small beast with affection in its eyes and was about to take it back to the hole.
"Well …"
All of a sudden, Su Ping narrowed his eyes in shock.
He had an idea when he saw the strange white-scaled Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon. He performed an appraisal on it, only to find that it was … mid-level!
The white-scaled Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon before him had a mid-level aptitude!
Su Ping was rather shocked.
It was only at the peak of the ninth rank, but its combat ability was twelve points!
It had to be noted that the peak of the ninth rank had a combat ability of 9.9, and there were countless invisible decimals after that. Su Ping had tried his best to raise his first pet with a combat ability above ten.
The wild white-scaled Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon before him was as strong as a regular Ocean State beast king!
"I've searched high and low for it …" Su Ping came back to his senses and was overjoyed. He had thought that he would have to go to the Thunderous Dragon Mountain to find a dragon with a mid-level aptitude, or even capture the dragon king of the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons to complete the quest.
After all, a dragon king that had reached the Star State had a mid-level aptitude.
However, he had run into one in the Thunderous Woods, and it was even a cub!
Whoosh!
Seeing that the small beast was about to return to the hole, Su Ping quickly rushed out.
Hardly had he appeared when the seven Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons around the tree stood up and stared at where Su Ping had appeared.
The white-scaled serpent was stunned for a moment. The affection in its eyes was quickly replaced by coldness and brutality. It drew the small beast into its body and looked at Su Ping warily.
"It's a human!"
"It's those damn hunters!"
"He's only an Ocean State human. Take care of him, but don't make too much noise!"
The seven Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons were infuriated by Su Ping's appearance.
Countless human beings had been hunting them over the years, which made them hate human beings more than ever.
Su Ping didn't intend to reason with those beasts. That was the law of the jungle. The Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons had been caged in that continent for countless people to hunt. They were weak compared to human beings! On the Blue Star, human beings were weak, and they were almost wiped out because of that!
That was the law of the universe!
Cruel and ruthless!
Su Ping pointed at the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon that was tied up by the white-scaled serpent and said coldly, "Give it to me, and I'll spare your lives!"
His words were delivered to their heads through telepathic thoughts.
"Don't even think about it!" The white serpent also spoke telepathically with a weak but furious voice. It opened its mouth and roared, baring its sharp fangs.
"Die!"
Nearby, another Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon had a cold look in its eyes. The space around Su Ping was instantly compressed. His Fate State control alone was enough to crush Su Ping, who was in the Ocean State.
However, the next moment, Su Ping casually waved his fist and shattered the compressed space.
He unleashed a daunting aura and divine energy. His black hair fluttered in the wind as he grabbed the Asura Divine Sword with a condescending look in his eyes.
"Don't blame me if you have a death wish." Su Ping snorted and took action. Thanks to the combination with the Little Skeleton and his super acceleration, he arrived in front of the attacking Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon and stomped on its head.
The Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon didn't have time to react; its head was smashed to the ground as if it had been hit by a heavy hammer. Its neck was broken and its scalp was bleeding!
The unexpected collision and noise made the other six Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons come back to their senses in shock. They had sensed that Su Ping was only in the Ocean State. How could he be so strong?
They didn't even have time to react when he attacked, not to mention the fact that he had crushed space with his fist!
The white-scaled serpent was also shocked and infuriated. As a mother, it had a feeling that the human in front of it wasn't easy to deal with!
Su Ping turned around and looked at the white-scaled serpent. He was about to attack again, when he suddenly raised his eyebrows and looked up.
Boom ~ ~!
Thousands of lightning bolts were launched from the crown of the giant tree above his head, striking him.
Those lightning bolts were full of destructive power and pierced through space like chains.
Su Ping narrowed his eyes but didn't dodge. Instead, he opened his hands, and a huge swirl appeared in his palms. Bolts of lightning surged into the swirl. Su Ping was surrounded by bolts of lightning. His aura seemed to have been strengthened again!
The other Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons widened their eyes upon seeing that. The human could absorb and feed on lightning, just like they did?
That was an ability that only beasts of the lightning class could have. Is he a human or a monster?
Su Ping let go of his hands and felt more comfortable.
He had already grasped the ability to absorb lightning. After all, he had been honed in the cultivation sites; his body was already as strong as that of any beast of the same level.
Exactly at that moment, an enormous shadow rushed close above his head. It turned out to be a Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon that was even larger. The aura it released indicated that it was at the peak of the Fate State!
The Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon was enraged. It roared deafeningly and glared at Su Ping.
"Goddamn human, go to hell!"
It opened its mouth and shot another lightning bolt at Su Ping's head.
Su Ping raised his head calmly. He sensed that lightning bolts were growing in the void around him, making it impossible for him to flash away.
However, he didn't intend to dodge. He suddenly drew his sword and released a wisp of the law of annihilation. After a boom, the lightning bolt that was hundreds of meters long exploded and was cut in half!
The sword aura hit the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon's chest, making it narrow its eyes.
The next moment, a lightning armor appeared on its body and blocked the sword aura, but the armor was also broken.
The Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon was both shocked and infuriated. It landed in front of the white-scaled serpent like a mountain, protecting it behind its back.
"You're here …" The white-scaled serpent's eyes softened when it saw the gigantic dragon.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Three more Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons flew close behind the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon and landed next to it.
The Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon spoke to the white-scaled serpent behind it without looking back, "My father wants to use you and Lin 'er as a sacrifice to the dragon ancestor. Run now!"
Its voice was heavy and contained a lot of emotions.
The white-scaled serpent was stunned. Then, tears flowed out of its eyes. "Where … Where are we going?"
The entire Rumbling Thunder Continent was the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons' territory. Where could they run to?
Moreover, there were hunters like the human in front of him everywhere outside!
There was nowhere to run!
The Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon gritted its teeth with sorrow in its eyes. It slowly turned its head with deep affection and humanity in its eyes. "Let's go to the Grieving Frost Swamp. That's a place that we despise. They won't go there easily …"
"What about you …"
"I have to stay, or my father won't let it go!" The Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon gritted its teeth and looked at the little beast that was crouching inside its body; its eyes were wide open in fear and confusion. It then said gently, "Lin 'er, you must be strong. Live on and take care of your mother!"
The little beast was stunned and looked at its father.
"Let's go!"
The Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon turned around and roared.
Roar!!
Su Ping heard that the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon was roaring, but there was grief and anger in its voice.
Su Ping had fought countless beasts in the cultivation sites. Although he didn't understand the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon's language, he could tell the emotions in its voice.
He frowned and said, "I'm hunting your child, not killing it. I can send it back to you anytime after I train it."
He said this through telepathy.
The Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon also roared telepathically, "Get lost, damn human! Liar!"
Su Ping heaved a sigh after seeing that it didn't believe him. He didn't say anything else and was about to take action, when an enormous pressure swept across the sky. Then, a couple of Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons appeared and rushed towards them.
"Let's go!"
The Vast Sky Thunderous Dragon roared.
The two Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons next to it took the white-scaled serpent and the little beast and fled to the other side of the forest.
"Reinforcements? You want to run? "
Su Ping saw that the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons were all in the Fate State, and the white-scaled serpent was trying to take the opportunity to escape. He immediately chased after it without caring about anything else.
