Chapter 303: The Necromancer Master! Yin Luo Yin's Super Rank Skill?
Chapter 303: The Necromancer Master! Yin Luo Yin's Super Rank Skill?
The plan to nurture the little fire seedling was still unclear, but for now, feeding it Flame Fruits would suffice.
As for finding other fire seedlings, there was no rush for the time being.
Although the meteor shower in the sky had dispersed, countless tiny sparks scattered across a vast area, and Su Ping estimated that even the entire Jianghai region wouldn't be enough to cover it.
If the entire East, or even the Dragon Nation, were to be included, it would be like finding a needle in the ocean.
Such matters depended on opportunities and luck.
On the return journey, the car drove slowly, and Su Ping actually wanted to stay longer at the Pine Ridge Cabin in Anling, but Master Yin Luo Yin had mentioned having something important to discuss, asking Su Ping to return as soon as his business was done.
After all, Cold Grandpa had said that Su Ping didn't need to stay with the high-ranking officials in the Northern Province, and it was time to return after a while.
The invitation from Master Yin Luo Yin was naturally more important than experiencing the Pine Ridge Cabin.
It was a bit of a pity, as Su Ping had wanted to absorb the remaining secret realms left by the development of secret realms in the Northern Province, which he had seen on the Qintianjian's backstage network.
However, it was inconvenient to move around in Anling, and if he were to absorb all the secret realms within Anling and the Northern Province, time would be very tight, let alone going to see Master Yin Luo Yin.
So, he only focused on the ordinary, broken remnants of secret realms, which were vastly different from the previous Blackwater Mystical Snake Secret Realm. In comparison, the benefits of absorbing them for short-term improvement wouldn't be significant.
Thus, Su Ping didn't insist on it.
After more than an hour, they returned to North Cold City.
They were still at the Rong Family's mansion.
Master Yin Luo Yin, the senior, was already waiting in Su Ping's room.
"You've been busy, haven't you, kid?"
Master Yin Luo Yin said with a smile.
Su Ping scratched his head:
"I should thank Master Yin Luo Yin for the introduction. Has everything been arranged with the Legion?"
During this time, Master Yin Luo Yin and Cold Grandpa had been in the Legion, organizing the breeding plan for the Sky Tomb Special Forces. With his arrival, all matters were naturally settled.
"Yes! If there are any changes, we can adjust accordingly. The most important thing is your breeding pet! Elder Ghost has already discussed the arrangements with you, right? This time, even though you're not in the Legion, you're undoubtedly the main force!
This is also convenient, saving some people from investigating any clues! Your pet's concealment is the Sky Tomb's ace!"
Su Ping knew that Master Yin Luo Yin was referring to the Five Elements Body.
"Alright, there's no rush for these matters. The main reason I came this time is that Old Ghost has something to discuss with you!"
Su Ping raised his eyebrows, as if he had something in mind but didn't ask:
"Please speak directly, and I'll do my best to help if I can!"
"Good, good, good! As expected of one of the most talented breeding masters in the Dragon Nation these past few decades!"
Although it seemed like flattery, it was a statement of fact. Master Yin Luo Yin's expression turned slightly serious:
"As a breeding master, and already a breeding grandmaster, Su Ping, you should know about Charles, right?"
Su Ping nodded. The grudge against him was quite big.
Although Mu Yu had attacked him previously, the true mastermind was undoubtedly Mu Yu's mentor, a world-class breeding master specializing in necromancy.
At the same time, the Eagle Nation's development in necromancy had surpassed even the achievements of the Mummy Nation in this field, largely due to this person.
The Eagle Nation itself had risen to power through the emergence of mechanical pets, and its national strength was now formidable.
In contrast, necromancy in the Dragon Nation had always been at a disadvantage, leading to many talented necromancy breeding masters leaving for other countries to seek further improvement in the cultivation of necromancy pets.
As the sole necromancy breeding master in their country, Master Yin Luo Yin felt powerless in this regard. He knew that to prevent such a situation, a necromancy breeding master no less skilled than Charles must emerge in their territory.
However, this was extremely challenging. In thousands of years of history, there were only a few figures like Charles on the entire Blue Star. But Su Ping, after seeing you, I saw this hope and possibility, and this hope is very, very big.
Master Yin's lengthy speech left Su Ping speechless. Although Su Ping was confident, the weight of being the sole hope for the entire necromancer breeder community was indeed quite heavy.
Before Su Ping could politely refute, Master Yin Luo spoke again:
"Su Ping, as your enemy, do you know how many breeding results Charles has achieved in the past hundred years?"
Su Ping shook his head.
He truly didn't know.
Aside from the legendary super-rank skill Necromancer's Death Domain, he had no knowledge of Charles' other breeding achievements.
Master Yin Luo listed them off like a prized collection: "Just from what I know, there are six super-rank skills. Among them, the last one, Necromancer's Death Domain, is ranked above the legendary skills and is the closest to achieving a legendary super-rank skill!
Additionally, there's the super-rank skill 'Corpse Body' cultivated from the monarch-rank necromancer pet 'Butcher', and the super-rank skill 'Death Arrival' from the imperial-rank necromancer pet 'Blood Demon'. There's also the super-rank skill 'Frost Whisper' from the monarch-rank necromancer pet 'Frost Frost Demon', and..."
Su Ping listened attentively.
The person who knows you best is always your enemy.
Undoubtedly, based on both sides' camps and Charles' initial actions, he was one of Su Ping's greatest enemies.
His achievements and abilities were well worth Su Ping's utmost attention.
Therefore, although Su Ping didn't fully understand the intent behind Master Yin's words, he listened carefully.
However, as Su Ping reached the end of the explanation, he couldn't help but wonder if Charles, like himself, had some kind of external advantage. Charles' expertise in necromancer breeding was truly exceptional.
Even as an enemy, Su Ping had to admit that Charles, the grandmaster of necromancer breeding and a revered figure in the breeding world, lived up to his reputation! Every world has its fair share of genuine geniuses, but soon enough, Su Ping noticed something amiss:
"Wait, Senior Yin, how old is Charles this year?"
Indeed, even if he were a prodigy blessed by heaven-blessed talents must have their limits.
Yin Luo smiled slightly: "It's good that you've thought of this. Longevity is the greatest constraint for humans. Human beastmasters possess formidable wisdom and formidable combat capabilities, but their lifespans are limited compared to some higher-ranked pets!
Only upon reaching the Spirit Level can they surpass the lifespan limitations of humans and achieve immortality. Even living to 150 years old is considered a ripe old age, and the older one gets, the more challenging it becomes to break through to higher realms! Unless one finds some immortal elixir, the lifespan of human beastmasters remains their greatest hindrance and limitation!
It is because of this lifespan limitation that in the history of human beastmasters, dynasties rise and fall, and eras progress. Yet, from ancient times to the present, despite the efforts of countless powerful beastmaster breeders, the study of extending lifespans has never ceased!
Charles is one of them. His research focuses on extending lifespans, specifically the 'Lich Soul Incarnation' research. Liches are inherently powerful pets that reach the imperial rank, and they are native to the Western necromancer lineage, rarely born in our Dragon Nation, and only a few imported ones are contracted by beastmasters.
The birth of Liches has a unique process involving the Soul Casket. As long as the Soul Casket exists, Liches can continue their existence even if they are slain or their bodies naturally decay."
After a pause, Yin Luo continued, "It is through his research on Liches that Charles has managed to create a Soul Casket using his own soul, not only extending his life but also maintaining his wisdom and creativity."
This ability allowed him to reach the Holy Spirit Level at the ripe old age of one hundred and twenty-three, barely breaking through to the Holy Spirit Level. Now, at the age of one hundred and sixty, he was still relatively young."
Su Ping's eyebrows furrowed.
He wasn't surprised. Reality wasn't a cultivation novel where one could achieve great things in a short time. One hundred and fifty years seemed brief, but it was already half a century.
It was a period that could change the world, turning oceans into mulberry fields.
In ancient times, it would have been half a dynasty.
Not to mention the Legendary and Mythical levels, which were even more elusive. Su Ping believed that as Beastmasters advanced in their cultivation, their lifespans would undoubtedly extend.
Moreover, Beastmasters had various ways to prolong their lives.
Aside from other methods, the Green Demon Spring Ginseng sought by the Beastmaster could significantly extend one's lifespan. Although Su Ping didn't know the exact effects, he was sure they wouldn't disappoint.
But he was too young to worry about such matters.
What surprised him was the ability of this Necromancer Breeding Master.
Simulating the Lich's Skill Vessel with one's own mental power? It was utterly inconceivable.
"Then... what's the cost?"
Yin Luo shook his head. "I don't know the specifics, but there's no doubt that the price is enormous!"
Su Ping wasn't disappointed.
At this thought, a glimmer of hope appeared on his face.
While he didn't currently feel any pressure regarding his lifespan, he couldn't deny that no one could resist the allure of immortality.
For humanity's history, individual immortality wasn't necessarily a good thing; it could even be a significant disaster. Still, every living being instinctively resisted death.
Time and death were the two most formidable attributes. Even in the present Blue Planet, among countless pets, those with these attributes were the rarest.
As expected, seeing Su Ping's entranced expression, no one could resist the curiosity about Charles's mysterious technique, which many doubted and yearned for.
After many Beastmaster Cultivators gained a deeper understanding of this legendary Cultivator, they were inspired to leave their homelands and embark on a journey to find him.
Yin Luo's intention was to instill in Su Ping a desire for longevity, not to make the Dragon Nation lose its most outstanding young genius Cultivator in decades.
If that happened, he would undoubtedly be the Dragon Nation's greatest sinner.
So, Yin Luo cleared his throat, interrupting Su Ping's reverie.
"Ahem, Su Ping, Charles is indeed formidable, but I believe your future won't pale in comparison."
Su Ping glanced at Yin Luo, who had a profound expression, and smiled slightly. He understood what Yin Luo meant.
Aside from Charles's personal grudge against him, just remembering the occasional glimpse of the Lich's appearance was enough for Su Ping to lose all interest in such immortality.
What was the point of becoming a pile of bones or a Necromancer? Perhaps Su Ping's current abundance of lifespan made him fearless, but for now, this was indeed his genuine sentiment.
Furthermore, he couldn't even attempt such a thing.
Seeing Su Ping's expression, Yin Luo finally breathed a slight sigh of relief. Then, after a pause:
"I've told you all this to let you know there are others more powerful than you. Our path in the Necromancer realm is still long, and I have something else to tell you. You've gained a lot, in this room."
Yin Luo's expression turned solemn, and even his usually emotionless face showed a hint of pride, revealing his satisfaction at this moment:
"I'm the Dragon Nation's only Necromancer Breeding Master, and I naturally have my own Super Rank Skill Breeding! This skill allows pets to assist in extending one's lifespan to some extent."
Su Ping was taken aback and blinked.
Looking at Yin Luo, who smiled warmly and didn't resemble a Necromancer Breeding Master at all, Su Ping pursed his lips, wanting to say:
'So, you've been leading me on all this time just to show off at this moment?'
