Chapter 442: He Said, He Wants to Ascend to Divinity!
Chapter 442: He Said, He Wants to Ascend to Divinity!
Shuhua City.
This place was the true provincial capital of Jianghai Province in the past.
However, several decades ago, after the development of West Dragon Lake and the expansion into the East Sea, the center was moved to Linzhou.
Due to this historical background and reasons, the prosperity of Shuhua City is not much inferior to Linzhou.
It is one of the top three most populous cities in Jianghai Province.
In the outskirts of Shuhua City, there is a particularly special area.
Shuhua City is adjacent to Linzhou, but due to Linzhou's barrier and geographical location, the surrounding suburbs are truly suburban areas, free from the harassment of wild companion beasts, so many citizens still live there.
However, this place is an exception.
Small mountains surround it, and the secluded gardens within are faintly visible, immensely profound.
Ordinary people have no idea what this place is or who lives there.
Only a few people know that this place is home to important figures in Jianghai Province and even the Dragon Nation.
The Dong Family, after so many years of suppressing the noble families, still stands out as a family that managed to survive the turmoil. This kind of heritage is so significant that even Qin Erlong, the president of the Jianghai Province Beastmaster Association, would not provoke them unless absolutely necessary.
Su Ping had visited Shuhua City once before.
However, he did not explore it in detail. It was only during the trip when he and Dong Muchun swept through the many leftover secret realms in Linzhou that he took a casual look.
Now, upon arriving at the so-called Mirror Void Estate, he could not help but nod in approval.
Noble families are noble families, whether it's the former Rong Family or the current Dong Family; their heritage is evident from their living places.
However, the Rong Family was a large and prosperous family. Besides the main branch led by his grandfather, Rong Bao, there were countless side branches.
Thus, the family residence was like a small kingdom, and even Su Ping only visited a limited area.
However, the Dong Family is different. Despite being a large family, only this one branch has remained, so their living place, though smaller, is all the more essential.
This became apparent to Su Ping as soon as he entered the Mirror Void Estate, sensing a similar aura to his own 'Spring Heart,' indicating that the estate has a beneficial spirit land that enhances human beastmasters.
However, Su Ping did not have the leisure to thoroughly explore the Mirror Void Estate.
Dong Muchun did not enter the estate but stayed outside. It was Dong Muxuan, on summer vacation, who escorted Su Ping inside. There was no small talk; Su Ping directly saw Dong Lingxuan, the elderly patriarch of the Dong Family, and the seemingly unreliable ancestor 'Multiverse Reflection Mirror.'
After a brief exchange, only Su Ping and the floating Multiverse Reflection Mirror remained in the innermost room of the Mirror Void Estate.
"Ancestor Mirror, didn't you leave a mirror anchor point in the Heart of All Souls? Why not just find me there? Why did you have me come all the way to Shuhua City?"
Su Ping sat down and looked at the Multiverse Reflection Mirror.
In the mirror, the twin-tailed, pink-haired anime girl appeared again, smiling at Su Ping but not answering directly. Instead, she asked:
"Su Ping, your trip to the Imperial Capital was quite fruitful, wasn't it?"
Of course, she wouldn't say that the Heart of All Souls now had too many powerful old beings who might detect him, which is why she had Su Ping come to Shuhua City in person. Moreover, she indeed had some important matters to discuss with him.
"It was okay, a small gain."
Su Ping nodded.
The Multiverse Reflection Mirror glanced at Su Ping, and even in the anime world, her eyes had a profound and meaningful look.
The next words made Su Ping slightly stunned:
"If the Dragon Seal is considered a small gain, then there might be nothing that could be considered a significant gain in the Dragon Nation."
Su Ping looked at the Multiverse Reflection Mirror, who, without any concern, continued to smile:
"Su Ping, if you want to vie for that position in the future, the Dong Family and I will do our utmost to support you!"
"Hmm?"
Su Ping's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
However, this reaction made the Multiverse Reflection Mirror misunderstand Su Ping's thoughts. As a spatial mirror ancestor who had reached the peak of the Holy Spirit Rank, and was only half a step away from the Legendary Rank, she had never spoken so gently:
"Su Ping, neither I nor the Dong Family have any ill intentions. The matter of the Dragon Seal is not overly intrusive; it is already common knowledge in the upper echelons of the Dragon Nation!
Possessing the Dragon Seal means you have entered the core of the Dragon Nation. In the future, you might succeed to that position after the current one. This is inevitable."
However, even with your esteemed breeding skills, Su Ping, you wouldn't be the only candidate. After all, to secure that position, one needs strength, a solid foundation, and the recognition of various factions."
Su Ping shook his head.
"Senior, you've misunderstood. I've never had such thoughts."
"Su Ping, whether you want it or not, it's not important. What matters is whether the future holders of the Dragon Seal will want it. If you get involved in this struggle..."
Before Multiverse Reflection Mirror could finish, Su Ping interrupted:
"Senior, I came here solely for the spatial teleportation device. Your help is appreciated, and I'm willing to assist you in any way. But regarding this matter, it's best to refrain from further discussion."
"Su Ping..."
The figure within the Multiverse Reflection Mirror blinked, opened its mouth, and finally sighed:
"Kid, with your personality, if you truly get involved in this, you'll be at a disadvantage. Sometimes, having talent and ability alone isn't enough to intimidate all kinds of evil spirits. Even that legendary figure, at times, has many..."
Su Ping smiled slightly upon hearing a familiar term from this person's mouth:
"Senior, who can predict the future?"
The Mirror Ancestor blinked, seemingly not understanding Su Ping's words,
So he continued:
"That position you mentioned, I'm not interested. I don't know what the Holy Dragon Legend does daily, nor do I know if someone as powerful as him would have any difficulties or be forced into anything.
But I believe that for these things, being a Legendary is enough. However, if it's only for these reasons, then in the future, if I want to take it further or even more, it might be a bit challenging.
If possible, I'd rather focus my efforts on what I consider more meaningful, rather than wasting time and energy on these things."
Further advancement? The Multiverse Reflection Mirror, seeing the pink-haired, two-dimensional girl, stood stunned, gazing at Su Ping in front of him.
Even when Su Ping used the mirror-shaped spatial teleportation device and mechanically explained its usage, this Mirror Ancestor remained frozen in the impact of Su Ping's words.
Until another figure entered through the spatial portal.
The head of the Dong family, Dong Lingxuan, stepped in.
"Mirror Ancestor, what did Su Ping say?"
Dong Lingxuan looked anxiously at the Mirror Ancestor.
"He didn't value the Dong family's influence and your strength? Or..."
"No, I didn't even mention that..."
The Multiverse Reflection Mirror shook its head, seemingly distracted:
"He said his aspirations lie elsewhere."
Dong Lingxuan's aged face suddenly furrowed his brows, unsure if he was frustrated or disappointed:
"Since he's been chosen by the Dragon Seal, how can he not participate in this dispute? I've always said his temperament isn't suited for great achievements! Indeed, he's not worthy of our plans!"
"Not worthy of our plans..."
The Multiverse Reflection Mirror repeated this phrase, then fell silent.
The spiritual consciousness and soul within seemed to reflect the image and words of the young man.
After a few deep breaths, Dong Lingxuan watched the Mirror Ancestor deep in thought, and said:
"Old Ancestor, what do we do now? About your matter..."
Becoming a legend wasn't easy for the Multiverse Reflection Mirror. Besides internal factors, external influences also played a role. Even if he succeeded, without a clear stance, it would draw too much attention in Dragon Country.
Now, with Su Ping unwilling to get involved, could this Legendary breakthrough?
The pink-haired, two-dimensional girl, seemed not to hear. She shook her head lightly:
"No worries..."
Dong Lingxuan's eyebrows rose, looking at the Mirror Ancestor strangely.
No worries?
This kind of thing, no problem?
As expected, in his line of sight, the consciousness of the old ancestor began to drift off into a reverie.
What did that person just say to the old ancestor? Why is he so distracted?
After a moment's hesitation, Dong Lingxuan finally spoke up.
"Old Ancestor, what did Su Ping tell you?"
The Multiverse Reflection Mirror snapped out of its trance once again, its gaze turning to the young man before it, no longer as youthful as he once was.
It still remembered that several decades ago, when it first saw Dong Lingxuan, he had said that he would make the Dong Family the top noble family again and that he would break through to the Legendary Beastmaster rank.
Later, when Dong Lingxuan was still young, he secured the position of the next family head, and he declared that he would become the revival leader of the Dong Family.
Twenty years ago, there was a purge of the noble families.
The young man, no longer in his youth, made a bold decision, cutting off countless branches of the Dong Family. Blood flowed like a river, but he managed to preserve the Dong Family and its most important ancestor.
But from that day on, the young man never spoke of such ambitious words again.
Now, this middle-aged man, still stuck at the Imperial rank bottleneck, no longer had the drive to break through.
The Multiverse Reflection Mirror remained silent, this lively yet unreliable pink-haired girl in front of Su Ping, felt an indescribable sensation for the first time.
However, seeing the curious gaze of the young man before it, the mirror finally spoke:
"He said he wants to ascend to divinity..."
...
After returning from Shuhua City, Su Ping didn't rush to immediately arrange the placement of the teleportation mirrors.
There was no rush.
With the internal transportation system set up, there wasn't an immediate need for it, and in the future, if it could connect to West Dragon Lake, the entire Earth Heart area, and other locations, it wouldn't be urgent to construct it either.
Su Ping chatted with Dong Muchun on the way back, and this Dong Queen was indeed very focused on expanding her business empire. With Su Ping's reputation, Pingyun's business was thriving.
In less than a year, Pingyun's business had skyrocketed at an unimaginable pace.
Additionally, after this incident, Su Ping handed over the improved version of the Fire Spirit Formula, casually named by Su Ping as the Flame Heart No. 2 potion. If it passed the test, it could be directly implemented nationwide.
Meanwhile, Su Ping already knew about the beginning of the artificial Mechanical Core.
It would significantly reduce the cost of Mechanical Cores in the upcoming period.
From the previous cost of over a hundred million, it would drop tenfold, at most a few thousand, and with further development, it might even be possible to create Mechanical Cores for a few million or even a few hundred thousand.
With this advanced technology in hand, the future implementation of the Dream Heart would be easier, and the only limitation was the activation cost of Fat Fat.
After discussing Pingyun's future plans, this Dong Queen was once again filled with enthusiasm. Pingyun's company continued to expand, and if the national business map stabilized, she might even consider expanding beyond Dragon Nation.
This was her value, especially as Su Ping's shares became more valuable. She might feel a sense of guilt if she didn't live up to her potential.
Su Ping himself didn't particularly care about these matters, and it was precisely because of Dong Muchun that he didn't have to worry about finances.
So, the matter he was most concerned about at the moment was something else.
Upon returning to the Heart of All Souls without using the Dragon City Emerald Dreamland, but simply driving, the sky had already started to darken by the time they arrived.
However, upon their return, a crucial piece of news from the past few days finally arrived.
The Yuan Magnetic Shock Gold vein had finally been excavated. It stretched for about three kilometers, and the estimated yield was over three thousand cubic meters of Yuan Magnetic Shock Gold, including a Yuan Magnetic Shock Gold seed.
These were Su Ping's thoughts on Fat Fat's evolution.
At the same time, in addition to evolution, the preparation for the cultivation of the Fantasy Incarnation, the super skill of the Mechanical Titan Body, was also about to begin.
Su Ping clenched his fists, knowing that this night would not be spent in meditation.
However, just as he was about to embark on his task, a phone call came through, and Cloud Saint's voice could be heard:
"Su Ping, I'll be at your place soon."
