Chapter 528: The Supreme Evil Spirit Sword! The Ghost Tide Offense!

"I thought you'd at least wait until after the New Year's Day and finish the national beastmaster competition before coming!"

Su Ping's arrival was stealthy, without causing any disturbance or attracting attention.

Perhaps most people thought he was still in Northern Chill City, rather than appearing at the northernmost border military camp of the Dragon Nation.

In the central command room of the military camp, Lord Leng spoke up.

Su Ping took a breath of the cold air that had just entered the room and said, "I came here because of a situation, and while I'm here, I'll go into the Celestial Tomb to check it out and resolve the issue."

Lord Leng's mouth twitched. The Celestial Tomb was a matter of great concern even to the Holy Dragon, yet this brat treated it like a playground. He spoke earnestly, "Su Ping, the Celestial Tomb is no small matter. Don't be too confident! Be careful, if something goes wrong, it won't just be a loss for you, but a huge loss for the Dragon Nation as well!"

Su Ping smiled and said, "Yes! But this time, I do have other matters to attend to. Lord Leng, do you know where I can find a well-preserved corpse of a high-level sword-type beast?"

"A sword-type beast's corpse? What do you want that for?"

Lord Leng was suspicious.

Apparently, when Yin Luo came yesterday, he didn't mention this matter to this person.

"It might be useful for beast evolution. After initial testing, it should be mostly accurate, so I need a high-level sword-type beast corpse as a cultivation material."

"Using a sword-type beast's remains as cultivation material? What kind of strange evolution are you trying to create, kid?"

Lord Leng was suspicious, but from a professional perspective, he naturally wouldn't argue with Su Ping.

"The higher the better!" Su Ping didn't even have to think about it.

"Tsk, so it's a Holy Spirit Rank? Well, you're not wrong, kid. Your luck is indeed quite good!"

Lord Leng clicked his tongue and, looking at Su Ping's bright eyes, smiled:

"This time, behind the Ghost Tide, there are several Holy Spirit Rank necromantic-type beasts secretly orchestrating things in the shadows. However, we haven't fully grasped how many there are or what kind of ferocious beasts they are!

But among the two confirmed ferocious beasts, one of them is the Supreme Evil Spirit Sword!"

Su Ping's eyebrows rose, and his eyes lit up even more.

"A Holy Spirit Rank Supreme Evil Spirit Sword?! A powerful existence with both necromantic and artifact attributes? Has this thing appeared again?"

Lord Leng nodded. "This thing is extremely tricky. It commands countless sword puppets and sword souls, making it a very troublesome opponent! Although it hasn't directly attacked, its intimidation factor is extremely strong, and it's one of my Ghost Dragon's primary targets and hypothetical enemies!"

"So, this thing is still alive?"

"Of course! A Holy Spirit Rank sword-type beast, and even among the Holy Spirit Rank, it's considered a powerful existence. If it were that easy to kill, the Ghost Tide would have ended long ago!"

Lord Leng replied with exasperation.

Su Ping didn't pay attention to his rant.

His mind was filled with information about the Supreme Evil Spirit Sword.

He genuinely knew about this thing.

Not to mention that he had brushed up on his knowledge of sword-type beasts on his way here today.

Even if he hadn't, when he learned about Yu Liangqing's Soul Annihilation Yama Sword, he had also seen some information about this thing.

The Supreme Evil Spirit Sword is a high-level sacred beast of the Holy Spirit Rank.

Currently, it hasn't been discovered what beast it evolved from, and it might even be a pure-bred Holy Spirit Rank beast.

This thing seems to exist only in the vicinity of the Dragon Nation, and in history, there are almost no records of beastmasters taming it as a companion beast.

After activating his privileges and accessing secret information, he learned that the Supreme Evil Spirit Sword was a major threat in ancient times, especially during the Northern Necromantic Ghost Tide outbreaks.

So, Su Ping had reason to speculate that

the sword-type beast that the Fengdu Sword King Yu Liangqing spent his entire life cultivating, the Soul Annihilation Yama Sword, might have been influenced by the Supreme Evil Spirit Sword!

This Fengdu Sword King seemed to have spent his life battling on the Northern Border battlefield.

His life's ambition was to eradicate the Celestial Tomb Ghost Tide in the Northern Border.

If the Supreme Evil Spirit Sword was his ultimate target, it made sense.

This thing was indeed powerful.

In the beastmaster's backend records, there were Holy Spirit Rank sword-type beasts, but the Supreme Evil Spirit Sword was one of the few high-level Holy Spirit Rank existences.

Moreover, compared to other sword-type beasts, this thing was extremely bizarre.

Its ability was 'summoning-type', and in historical discoveries, this thing was surrounded by countless sword ghosts, sword souls, and the like.

Even if it's not an Emperor Rank or below, the Sword Puppet Ghost, a Holy Spirit Rank, has appeared in historical records.

Moreover, the strength of its own body is extremely bizarre and powerful.

It's not hard to imagine the level of threat this thing poses today.

However, despite this, upon hearing about the appearance of this creature from historical records, Su Ping couldn't contain his excitement.

If possible, wouldn't this be a great opportunity, the perfect evolution material for Qian Yi?

As for the threat?

Su Ping didn't care.

With Lord Leng in command,

and with the formidable strength of the Dragon Nation on display,

a beast tide of Holy Spirit Rank companion beasts, in essence, wouldn't pose a significant crisis.

The real concern lies in places like the Hundred Thousand Mountains, where the Divine Phrase Tree is said to exist, a restricted area for life forms.

This Supreme Evil Spirit Sword, a sword-type artifact beast, and one that involves necromantic attributes,

makes this trip to the Northern Province all the more worthwhile.

With his worries lifted, Su Ping's mood lightened considerably:

"Lord Leng, how's the battle situation?"

Lord Leng shook his head, "It's manageable. We've been dragging it out, occasionally launching attacks of medium range. But there's been no large-scale all-out assault yet. Instead, every few nights, there are small-scale invasions, which don't cause much impact."

"But we fear they might have other motives and intentions! Your father's guess is that it's similar to the previous incident in Donghai. This extermination might be a sacrifice, offering these necromantic souls to the Celestial Tomb, which might have some plans in motion."

Hmm?

Su Ping raised his eyebrows, "What do you mean? Could it be that the Celestial Tomb has already opened? And isn't it that only high-level beings can enter the Celestial Tomb?"

"Of course it hasn't opened. Numerous proofs have verified that only the Celestial Tomb Seal can grant entry. But the Celestial Tomb you mentioned and the one commonly referred to are not the same!"

As Su Ping listened to Lord Leng's explanation, he became more doubtful.

The former didn't continue explaining.

Instead, with a thought, a virtual screen appeared in the command center.

A photo was displayed before Su Ping's eyes.

It was a vast aerial view.

However, in this view, there was a vast darkness.

The next moment, as the perspective zoomed in, Su Ping finally understood what he was looking at.

Countless pitch-black steles, bizarre dark land, and after the steles and earth seemed to merge, various strange holes and openings, covering an area so vast that it couldn't be measured by the naked eye.

Lord Leng pointed at the screen:

"In layman's terms, this entire area belongs to the Celestial Tomb! The Celestial Tomb is not just a secret realm entrance or a single burial mound, but a vast necromantic kingdom! A city of the dead! What you see here is already the center of the shot.

In reality, the surrounding area is a desolate land of white bones, tainted by necrotic energy. Ordinary beastmasters and their companion beasts, upon entering, must withstand temperatures colder than the outside world and resist the oppressive corrosion of necromantic energy.

This is a paradise for necromantic-type beasts, but for the majority of other attribute beasts, it's difficult to stay for long, let alone venture deep into the heart of the Celestial Tomb City!

The true Celestial Tomb, the place you need to enter and where the true body exists, is right at the center of this city of tombs!"

Lord Leng pointed in a direction, but unfortunately, even with this satellite-transmitted image, the center remained a dark mystery, like a drop of ink on a photograph.

The dense ink obscured the most crucial part.

Su Ping nodded, finally understanding completely.

Indeed, entering the Celestial Tomb is no easy task, no wonder, under such circumstances, it's often only possible to defend, and counterattacks are challenging.

It's no wonder that the Celestial Tomb, located in the Nine Provinces of the Dragon Nation, has been a longstanding headache for beastmasters throughout history.

There's a good reason for that.

Su Ping was quite surprised, "Oh, Lord Leng, didn't you say last time that the necromantic beings in the Celestial Tomb had been cleared out? We even entered and saw the Celestial Tomb's body. How is it that now..."

Lord Leng sighed,

"I mentioned last time that it was a recent event, and it's been many years since then.

I remember telling you that the frequency of Necromantic-type Companion Beasts born around the Celestial Tomb far exceeds that of ordinary places by a thousandfold!

In the end, the core of the issue is still the Celestial Tomb itself! Only by truly opening the Celestial Tomb and uncovering its secrets can we achieve a permanent solution."

Su Ping nodded.

"However, the existence of the Celestial Tomb isn't necessarily all bad."

Lord Cold was taken aback and, after thinking about it, also nodded. "That's indeed the case."

At this point, Su Ping remembered the other person he had brought along:

"Oh right, Lord Cold, where's Captain Lu?"

"That kid you brought? He's waiting for you at your dad's battalion. Alright, go find him first, and if there's anything, come find me again. Xing Chen, take Su Ping to Captain Su."

Lord Cold waved his hand.

Su Ping also nodded, and just before he left, he seemed to remember something:

"Oh, Lord Cold, if that Demon Swarm comes again, don't forget to let me know. I've never been part of such a scene before."

"You little rascal, your mother never lets me have a moment's peace."

With a playful smile, he followed Xing Chen into a vehicle and arrived at the camp, a relatively secluded and remote area, even separated from the main legion's region.

This place was relatively small, and at first glance, it was only the size of a small town.

Here was the training and garrison site of the Celestial Tomb's Beastmaster Legion.

Su Ping wasn't in a hurry to greet Su Anyong, whom he hadn't seen in more than a month.

Instead, after Xing Chen showed their credentials, they came to the training ground not far away.

Upon entering this specially partitioned garrison area, Su Ping saw that in addition to the buildings with special equipment, many people were in the central training ground.

This included his father and Master Yin Luo Yin.

Each of the short-haired figures was spaced far apart, sitting cross-legged with their eyes closed.

In front of them were familiar Companion Beasts: Five Elements Paper Spirits.

Almost every moment, ripples of spiritual energy emanated from each of their figures.

Some even directly broke through a minor realm.

Initially, the special arrangement led to a unique cultivation method for the Celestial Tomb's Companion Beasts, where the contracts were separated from the Beastmasters.

Now, after the evolution and cultivation were complete, these members of the Beastmaster Legion had to train with these Five Elements Paper Spirits and the Night Raven Grassmen.

In a short period, the task was not insignificant.

Su Ping's gaze swept over each figure.

In this team, there were fewer than a hundred people, but each of these Monarch-ranked Beastmasters had a unique iron-blooded quality.

Just a glance at them was enough to put one's mind at ease.

When the time came, this squad of fewer than a hundred people would follow him into the Celestial Tomb.

If possible, Su Ping didn't want to see these people die because of him.

However, perhaps they had already prepared for this.

The information from the Celestial Tomb on the Eagle Nation's side claimed that countless Monarch-ranked Beastmasters had died before it was barely developed.

With this number of people, even in the Celestial Tomb of the Great Rift Valley in the Eagle Nation, they wouldn't be enough to fill the gaps!

Su Anyong had already spotted him.

However, the two didn't have much to say. His father, dressed in a military uniform, patrolled around the figures, and indeed, it was the first time Su Ping had seen him like this.

There was indeed a bit of dignity about him, and the Su Anyong he had known for so many years seemed like a different person.

The father and son had last met less than two months ago, so naturally, there wasn't much small talk.

Moreover, both of them knew why they had come this time and didn't have the leisure for idle chatter.

Su Ping didn't pay much attention to Su Anyong but instead focused on the training of the Night Raven Grassmen's reconnaissance squad in the camp.

This time, Jian Yue went to the Heart of All Spirits, and although she exchanged information about death-type mutations, Su Ping hadn't had time to look carefully.

Because the Companion Beast hadn't been cultivated yet, and just looking at the cultivation method wasn't very interesting.

Now, he finally got to see this death-type mutation of the Night Raven Grassmen with his own eyes again.

However, before they even had dinner, as the sky just darkened, a phone call came through to Su Anyong.

The news that made Su Ping both eager and nervous indeed arrived.

Another small wave of the Demon Swarm's attack had begun.
