Astral Pet Store (WN)

Chapter 1496: The Ultimate Cultivation Site (1)

“That is correct.”

Elaine nodded. “We’re going to the place where the twelve Sorcerer Ancestors are found. Only great existences born in chaos like them can keep a safe land.”

Dazed, Su Ping hurriedly asked, “Which Sorcerer Ancestor are we going to meet exactly?”

“We must not call Sorcerer Ancestors by their names. You’ll know when we get there.” Elaine glanced at Su Ping. Basha’s memories showed that humans weren’t arrogant and she liked them, but that didn’t mean she would trust Su Ping completely. There were many bloody lessons in their history.

Some clans were intimidated by the Heavens and voluntarily became their dogs. That was why the new cyborgs were so vigilant of Su Ping at first.

“Fine.”

Su Ping didn’t ask further. He would know the answer once they met. Still, he knew it wouldn’t be the Golden Crow ancestor. After all, the Golden Crows had already secluded themselves from the outside world.

Of the twelve Sorcerer Ancestors, I’ve only seen one, the Golden Crow ancestor. I haven’t seen the others…

Su Ping’s eyes glittered and he said to Elaine, “How long is this trip going to take? Are you confident in getting there safely?”

“It depends on whether our journey is smooth or not. There are a lot of collapsed and rotten Great Daos we must avoid. If we’re unlucky, we may be delayed by a couple of hundred years.”

Elaine added, “As for whether or not we can arrive safely, we can only try our best. If anything happens, we’ll flee together.”

Su Ping nodded and asked in confusion, “Aren’t we going to inform others before we flee?”

“Others?”

“The other Ancestral Gods of your clan.”

“Huh?”

Elaine instantly looked at Su Ping. “You’ve seen other Ancestral Gods of our clan? Where?”

“…” Su Ping certainly wouldn’t admit he had seen them in a cultivation site. He hurriedly said, “You can’t be the only Ancestral Gods in your clan, right?”

Elaine found his words increasingly weird; she looked at Su Ping even more suspiciously. She became vigilant, and got ready for any sneak attacks. She said calmly, “We were invaded by the Heavens and a lot of Ancestral Gods died in the war. The losses were tragic, and we’re the only survivors left. Of course, there may be other survivors elsewhere, but there’s no time to search for them.”

Su Ping asked, “You must have a special locating method, right? How exactly did you find our place?”

Elaine’s expression changed a bit. In the catastrophe caused by the Heavens, they were forced to split up and hide in different Dao Crystals. They remembered each other’s locations and agreed that they wouldn’t drift away even if they encountered something; they would only retreat if a destructive crisis took place.

They had a map of the several Dao Crystal’s locations.

After years of searching, they found that a lot of Dao Crystals had been destroyed by the beasts left by the Heavens.

“We’re in a rush. You happened to be on our escape route, so we came to take a look.” Elaine glanced at Su Ping and asked, “Are you the only Ancestral God among humans?”

“I’m the only one in our universe,” said Su Ping, “That’s why we couldn’t resist the Heavens at all, and were forced to flee.”

Elaine didn’t say anything. She didn’t fully trust him.

Su Ping noticed her vigilance but didn’t try explaining further. He said, “Madam, go ahead and keep on manning the Dao Crystal. Look for me if there’s a problem.”

Elaine’s eyes glittered. She said, “Fine.”

Su Ping returned to the continent. The journey would take hundreds of years, so he certainly wouldn’t waste time steering the planet; it was enough for him to train in cultivation sites for a long time.

Although it was rather risky and equivalent to leaving the car’s steering wheel to a total stranger, Su Ping believed that those people wouldn’t kill their own kind.

The cyborgs were also victims of the Heavens. Su Ping was fine with any direction, as long as they weren’t going to meet the Heavens.

Besides, even if there was any danger, he could hide everyone inside his universe and escape in his store.

He had yet to test the store’s defensive limits, Su Ping estimated that it should be at the ancestor level.

That was already the upper limit Su Ping knew of, and also the cultivator’s final destination. No creatures could ever cultivate to that level after being born.

However, Su Ping didn’t enter the cultivation site before leaving the cyborgs’ universe. After all, he had learned that the Heavens were approaching and it was still unknown if they could leave safely.

Seizing the opportunity, Su Ping informed his master that he was going to help all Celestials advance to the Dao Heart State.

In case of a crisis, they would be able to gather all humans on the continent as soon as possible and keep everyone inside his store.

Shen Huang was delighted by the news. He immediately asked all Celestials to gather in the temple.

The first Celestial went to Su Ping’s store.

The latter didn’t dally with chitchat. He took the man to the test room and had him pick the Dao Heart he wanted. Once the inheritance was imparted, he prepared a tribulation for him.

The man’s potential was fully developed, and his strength was completely consolidated.

In the sky under the green glass—Elaine flew alone in the silent universe as she manned the Dao Crystal like a barely noticeable grain of sand.

It was a surprise for her to see Su Ping give her the full control of the Dao Crystal. Is the human so innocent that he fully trusts us, or does he have other trump cards?
