Chapter 219 - Heavenly Abyss
In a cla.s.sroom of East Capital Heavenly Abyss University.
"Su Bai really became the chief disciple of Yulong Gymnasium"s G.o.d Dragon Division? His Ancestor Blood Dragon even showed a consummate skill? Are you sure that this is true?" Xiao Yulong, president of the student union, looked at a young man named Shi Xiu and asked.
"Yes. Most of the disciples in G.o.d Dragon Division were there at the time. There can be no mistake in this matter. It is said that his pet dragon used Cross Blood Killing Mark and instantly silenced the five pets of the same level. No one dared to challenge him afterward." Shi Xiu nodded vigorously.
Nodding, Xiao Yulong narrowed his eyes and looked ahead, deep in thoughts.
"President, Su Bai shouldn"t stay for long. We all thought that he at most had the strength of a low-level monarch. Now, it seems that his combat power has reached the mid-level emperor grade."
"It"s not as exaggerated as you said; his true strength may not be at the emperor grade. Those people were just frightened by the momentum of his spike, but they"ll soon be able to turn around and figure it out." He waved his hand, feeling that this man was a little stupid.
"I don"t have time to target him for now. Just keep an eye on him and enter Yulong Gymnasium. Some people in Giant Dragon Division are already targeting him.
"By the way, have you checked the things I asked you to check?" he exhaled and asked.
"According to my investigation, there"s indeed a major event in the Blood Moon world before the birth of the divine skill, and it"s even a large-scale event. The same thing happened in the other twelve parts of the Scarlet Wilderness."
"What event? Say it quickly!" Xiao Yulong stood up, feeling very close to the truth.
Ever since his return from the Blood Moon world, he had been investigating the major events that happened there before the birth of the divine skill.
This was because, according to his investigation, being able to progress so fast in the Blood Moon"s trial must be cheating. However, it was only possible to cheat in that place with the help of the original will of the world.
According to the general situation and the data of divine skills a long time ago, there were only a few cases where a world would help out.
Either the person in question was a creation of the world will or their strength was terrifying enough to make the whole world tremble. It could also be that they represented the heavens and earth or the origin of all beings.
It now seemed likely to be the third situation.
"According to our investigation, near the end of July and August this year, many special Flesh Devourers suddenly appeared in the Scarlet Monster Wildernesses. They kept devouring other monsters; after which, they produced a kind of scarlet ashes.
"These ashes greatly can improve the blood monsters and are deeply loved by the blood Pet Tamers." The young man in front of Xiao Yulong briefly explained to him.
"Have the scarlet ashes been eaten by many wild monsters?"
"It should be the case. The Flesh Devourers will spill the ashes everywhere."
"I got it. It must be because of that thing." Xiao Yulong clenched his fists, feeling even more hurried. He just wanted to find the person who had robbed him of the divine skill and kill them for doing so.
Sure enough, his painstaking efforts had paid off, and he had finally found something that gave the person away.
"Are those Flesh Devourers still alive?" Xiao Yulong asked.
"I don"t know about that. It"s said that they are extremely unstable and must swallow things continuously. As long as they stop, their bodies will quickly turn into scarlet ashes.
"Most of the fields in the wild have withered away. I don"t know if any organization has caught and raised one alive, but the scarlet ashes are very easy to find."
Shi Xiu said with his hands cupped in obeisance.
"Okay. Find me some scarlet ashes first. I"ll look for someone who can study their properties. Give them to me at any cost, be it through buying or s.n.a.t.c.hing away. You must find a way to get me that special Flesh Devourer; do you hear me?"
"I understand." Shi Xiu nodded, turned, and left the cla.s.sroom.
"D*mn thief, I"ll definitely catch you!" Xiao Yulong gnashed his teeth in anger. In his mind, it was his Blood Moon divine skill that had been robbed.
He was not robbing others at all.
In this world, the powerful and rich could a.s.sault at will most of the time, much less do things without logic and morality.
On the other side, many students left their cla.s.ses via school-owned large flying mounts.
They were headed for the Heavenly Abyss s.p.a.ce crack today, September 28. The Pet Alliance had united with various gymnasiums, pet universities, and pet management bureaus to seal the supers.p.a.ce crack.
Of course, today was just the beginning. Whether the sealing would be successfully done or not depended on everyone"s speed. However, from their a.n.a.lyses, it should not take too long.
At least, it was like that in the eyes of the elders.
On the back of a giant white crane, Su Bai and his cla.s.smates flew to this place with the professor of the pet tutorial cla.s.s.
The professor was a t.i.tle-holder Pet Tamer with an emperor pet. His term of address was Scorpio, named after his main battle pet.
"Sigh. We"re really unlucky to have become freshmen when the situation is like this. We haven"t even had our fulfilling college life yet," Lu Shuang whispered to them. The teams were arranged according to dormitories, so Su Bai was very close to the other three.
"You should feel fortunate that we"re only freshmen. The parts of the s.p.a.ce crack we are in charge of guarding aren"t particularly terrifying. At most, we"ll lose a few pets. It"s said that the parts of the s.p.a.ce crack guarded by our seniors are all very dangerous. If they aren"t careful, they may even lose their lives."
Liu Yong waved his hand and said, "Don"t be so discontented. Let"s discuss how to face the next thing. The Heavenly Abyss s.p.a.ce crack is already in front of you."
"I don"t want to discuss it; I just want to play around. I don"t want my pets to die in battle. If not for anything else, just a single main battle pet has a sky-high price.
"Anyway, the place we"re guarding isn"t dangerous, we can just loaf around. If our main battle pet dies, it"ll be too much of a tragedy. It"s costly, laborious, and time-consuming to cultivate another one.
"This wasn"t the college life I envisioned at all. I haven"t even found a girlfriend yet. It"s too difficult to be faced with life-and-death situations." Feng Ming murmured and complained, emphasizing the last point about missing a girlfriend.
Su Bai nodded lightly, agreeing with him. "Fortunately, I have a girlfriend. We"re quite near the Imperial Dragon Club, so I may even b.u.mp into her."
Feng Ming: "…"
The other two also felt heartaches in an instant. At the thought of having to fight hard while this guy got chummy with his girlfriend, their mood fell at once.
"Haha! I was just kidding. We"re here; be careful." Su Bai chuckled. There was discipline here, and there was a high probability that he would not see Cheng Ruoxue without any special circ.u.mstances.
Yesterday, he left after learning about the rights and responsibilities of the chief disciple with Qin Miao at the Yulong Gymnasium. This was already the end of the month, so he did not need to do anything.
Next month, he would start redistributing some things.
Originally, he could come to Heavenly Abyss s.p.a.ce crack directly with the gymnasium, but after thinking about it, he decided to return to school first. Compared with the school, Yulong Gymnasium was too dangerous.
There were not only external dangers but also internal ones. Although he had the Ancestor Blood Dragon, it was actually very difficult to protect himself in such a place.
"The sky has darkened. This is my first time at the bottom of the Heavenly Abyss s.p.a.ce crack!" Lu Shuang exclaimed.
As the big white crane flew down, the view at the bottom of the abyss gradually became clear.
