Chapter 312: East Sea Calamity! The Green Demon Ginseng's Filament
Chapter 312: East Sea Calamity! The Green Demon Ginseng's Filament
With Su Ping's return, the Ten Thousand Spirits Heart, a colossal and intricate machine in Linzhou, has once again begun to turn.
This place is a highly anticipated location for many Beastmasters and Cultivators in Linzhou.
During this time, the actions of the Ten Thousand Spirits Heart have indeed attracted a lot of attention. The massive acquisition of resources and materials has left everyone curious about the extent of this large-scale cultivation base located in the outskirts of Linzhou.
However, those with some connections in Linzhou wouldn't be surprised at all.
They know that, at present, in Jianghai, the Cloudreach Company, which has branches all over the eastern part of Dragon Country, has a close relationship with the legendary Cultivator, Su Ping, who is now in charge of the Ten Thousand Spirits Heart.
This is quite normal. Ordinary Cultivators like Sun Chao Ju still rely on their cultivation knowledge to create wealth, accumulate capital and resources, and establish similar cultivation bases.
But for someone like Su Ping, the cultivation base itself is meant to elevate his cultivation standards. Simply cultivating pets for others is still too inefficient in terms of wealth creation.
However, it is precisely because of this reason that more and more Beastmasters come to the Ten Thousand Spirits Heart to cultivate their corresponding pets.
Guan Qianshan, as the manager most trusted by Su Ping, has been handling more and more business dealings as the scale of the Ten Thousand Spirits Heart continues to expand.
At this moment, Guan Qianshan, who had arrived at the manager's office early in the morning, looked at the procurement report from yesterday after Su Ping had given instructions. He frowned and glanced at the capable woman in front of him: "Alan, when Cloudsky hadn't merged with the Heart of Wood yet, you were already working there. Over the years, you've been diligent and dedicated! Now, the boss doesn't really care about the spending on procurement, but I'm not a fool!"
Guan Uncle, who has always unconditionally believed in and supported Su Ping in front of Su Ping, also has a corresponding authority over his subordinates at this moment.
"It's understandable for relatively rare plant-type pets like Dragonwood Bamboo, but Wood Spirit Grass, even if it's over twenty years old, it's impossible to be almost 200,000 each! Compared to before, the price has increased by almost fifty percent!"
The capable woman was helpless:
"Manager Guan, I really haven't had any ulterior motives. The market price is genuinely this high right now! If you don't believe me, you can ask around yourself or even investigate my and my relatives' bank accounts. This is already a wholesale distributor giving us a discount out of respect for the Ten Thousand Spirits Heart!"
Guan Qianshan's eyebrows furrowed slightly. He did know a little about the recent increase in cultivation resource prices, but he hadn't expected it to be this exaggerated:
"Is it still because of the East Sea?"
"Yes! In Jianghai, and even in some coastal cities and ports in nearby provinces, the East Sea is completely blocked. The circulation of resources is already slow, and Linzhou is at the forefront. These cultivation resources can be considered strategic materials, and the price increase is also unavoidable!"
The woman said helplessly.
"East Sea..."
Guan Qianshan sighed.
"I know. The East Sea doesn't seem to be calm these days.
Not to mention that he was temporarily transferred to the West Dragon Lake, and his colleague from the Moon Island project of the Skyreach Company also mentioned that the project on the Moon Lake side had been suspended.
The entire West Dragon Lake is under martial law, with countless naval Beastmasters and warships from the Beastmaster Legion patrolling the East Sea, centered around the West Dragon Lake.
"Sigh, I wonder what's going on with the East Sea? When will these sea beasts under the East Sea calm down?"
Guan Qianshan shook his head:
"Alright, regardless, these resources and pets are personally instructed by the boss. Let's acquire them first. The accumulated resources during this time are also sufficient. Let's reduce the procurement quota for now and wait until the East Sea calms down a bit before deciding."
"Yes!"
...
At the Dragon Mouth position where the West Dragon Lake connects to the East Sea, an enormous warship stands on the ocean.
Despite the surging seawater, the giant ship remains unmoved, like an unyielding fortress on the sea's surface, seemingly never to sink.
At the ship's head, several figures stand on the deck, each wearing military attire, mostly in pure white, representing the identity of the Water Beastmaster Legion.
However, the leader among them is someone who would surprise anyone who sees them.
This is a boy who, despite his childlike stature, stands out among the crowd. His lips are red and his teeth white, resembling a recent graduate rather than a person of significance.
Behind this child, everyone stands respectfully, their gazes fixed on him.
The boy gazes at the surging waves before him and gently pats the deck railing in front of him.
"Breaking the waves, how's the detection range?" he asks, addressing the grand warship beneath his feet rather than anyone present.
The warship promptly responds, "Reporting to the master, I've dispatched twenty scout mother ships and three thousand underwater cameras. Within the West Dragon Lake area, no Monarch-rank or higher beasts have entered. As for Monarch-rank and lower beasts, their energy auras are relatively weak, making it difficult to detect them over a large area. A thorough investigation by the legion is required."
"What about the East Sea coast?" the boy inquires.
"According to underwater satellite monitoring, within a thirty-kilometer radius along the coastline of Jianghai Province, there are over a hundred traces of Emperor-rank aquatic ferocious beasts. Spirit-level ferocious beasts have not been detected in the area. Additionally, the majority of the water calamity beasts are concentrated in Jianghai Province, with other coastal areas having less than one-tenth of the number in Jianghai Province."
"Hmm," the boy nods. He yawns and looks towards the seemingly calm but actually turbulent East Sea mouth, feeling a bit helpless.
A hundred Emperor-rank beasts is already an exaggerated number.
Although no Spirit-level activity has been detected, it is only reasonable for the coastal cities of the East Sea to initiate a Level 1 alert.
Just then, after this adult finally finishes his conversation with the underwater fortress—a large aquatic mechanical beast renowned even in Dragon Country—the figure behind him speaks up, "Lord Ray Saint, what's the situation with this water calamity?"
The boy turns around helplessly, "I don't have much information from Dragon City either. We've sent a message to Snake Country, but we haven't received a response yet!"
Snake Country, located deep in the East Sea and close to Dragon Country, has always had a close relationship with Dragon Country.
One could even say it's a subordinate nation.
For many years in the East Sea, aside from the constant harassment by Beastmasters from Sakura Country, there hasn't been a surge of calamity beasts in a long time.
The group of people exchange glances, equally puzzled.
However, Lord Ray Saint turns his head, his eyebrows slightly furrowed.
In truth, he hasn't been entirely truthful with the leaders of the Navy Beastmaster Legion stationed in the East Sea.
Snake Country indeed doesn't know the specifics of what's happening.
Snake Country did send a reply, but it was the first time they communicated.
This time's water calamity outbreak was also unknown to the Endless Sea.
Of course, in beast territories, it's not like human continental countries that can manage every detail.
Within the calamity beast territories, even the higher-ranked beasts cannot completely control all the other beasts in their domain.
After all, many lower-ranked beasts, even with intelligence, act on instinct!
Moreover, the sea area is simply too vast.
Much larger than land.
The number of calamity beasts is unknown to anyone.
a personal decision to take action!
...
Su Ping doesn't know much about the East Sea's troubles, but as long as it doesn't affect his territory, he doesn't care. Let the tall guy deal with it; it's not his turn to worry yet.
In the 69th chapter of the novel, he is primarily concerned about his pet beast. He has already called Dong Muchun, and the Mirror of Ten Thousand Reflections from the Dong Family is ready. Dong Muchun and the head of the Dong Family will arrive in about two hours.
Meanwhile, Su Ping finally takes action.
Inside the medical room, the life monitoring device is focused on Xiao Qing. Outside, in addition to Su Ping, there is only the green demon spring ginseng, a semi-real and semi-illusory figure with a body like flames.
Xiao Qing, with its similar aura to this close relative, still concerns the green demon spring ginseng. Even more so, it doesn't understand Su Ping's so-called breeding evolution method.
If it weren't for Su Ping's understanding of human beastmasters and their soul contracts with pets, knowing that they are soul-connected, and that if one suffers, the other will surely feel it, Su Ping has no reason to harm Xiao Qing. The green demon spring ginseng even doubts what Su Ping is up to.
At this moment, Xiao Qing's breathing is extremely weak.
The life signs indicate a delicate state of near-death.
This near-death state is not caused by combat; such a near-death state is too difficult to control.
Previously, when optimizing the evolution of the Spirit Wolf, Su Ping used undead and death-attribute resources to control the breeding process.
However, Xiao Qing's level is higher, so the consumption is also greater.
Even Su Ping doesn't dare to guarantee absolute success. Therefore, the life-attribute resources are prepared on the side, ready to be injected at any moment.
Finally, under Su Ping's tense gaze, Xiao Qing's near-death state stabilizes, no longer fluctuating. Su Ping's heart also rises to his throat:
"Xiao Qing, consume the high-level soul fragment!"
Xiao Qing weakly opens her eyes and sees the mechanical arm delivering a crystal fragment the size of a fingernail to her mouth. Without hesitation, she swallows it.
Instantly, a strange transparent glow appears on Xiao Qing's body.
The next moment, her life signs begin to flicker again, but soon stabilize.
Then, the Monarch-level Slime Core and the breeding spores are swallowed by Xiao Qing.
Peace.
This time, Xiao Qing's state finally enters a complete state of calm.
Then, an indescribable palpitation, and even the sound of a heavy heartbeat, can be heard outside the medical room.
In less than half an hour, Xiao Qing's body seems to gradually turn transparent.
The near-death state from before gradually recovers.
Although Su Ping had anticipated this, he still breathes a sigh of relief at this step.
For both him and Xiao Qing, this step itself is the most dangerous part!
However, the next step in Xiao Qing's evolution is relatively simple.
Evolution and the cultivation of 'External Avatar', an advanced skill, are complementary processes.
However, no one knows what the final result will be, including Su Ping.
But for Xiao Qing, if she has enough energy, she can evolve in the Northern Plains.
Now, with the initial cultivation of 'External Avatar' complete, she can finally truly evolve.
Su Ping takes out the natural essence his father gave him, along with the poison-attribute sovereign-level resources he exchanged, and hands them to Xiao Qing in the medical room.
"Xiao Qing, absorb the energy and accumulate enough for evolution!"
"Woof!"
Xiao Qing seems to understand what this moment means for her.
A howl echoes.
However, at this moment, the green demon spring ginseng's body wraps around and takes out an object.
It is a golden box.
The box slowly opens, revealing its contents.
It is none other than the root filament Xiao Qing gave to Su Ping before.
An incredibly fine root filament, slightly thicker than a strand of hair.
But it still makes Su Ping pause.
Looking at Xiao Qing, who is accumulating energy and entering the evolution state, his heart suddenly stirs!
Should he add this item?
Should he add this legendary-level resource to the evolution?
I'm a bit tired, and I stayed up all night. I'll compensate with an extra chapter tomorrow.)
