Chapter 577: The Crucial Issue! The Legendary Bodyguard!
Chapter 577: The Crucial Issue! The Legendary Bodyguard!
Once again, it's that time of the year for the Breeder's Competition.
This time holds immense and significant meaning for all breeders across the Dragon Nation.
During this period, breeders from all over gather to showcase their cultivation results, representing their respective provinces.
Before that, the warm-up has undoubtedly already begun.
The leak of certain special materials and information has sparked heated discussions online, with everyone speculating based on these revelations.
Meanwhile, many breeders are feeling a surge of excitement.
However, no one following this year's Breeder's Competition could have imagined that at this very moment, in the eastern suburbs of Linzhou, something worthy of being recorded in the annals of history, a truly extraordinary event, was taking place.
A day's time passed in the blink of an eye.
During this day, Su Ping was not idle for a moment.
Of course, the most important matter, without a doubt, was still the Oceanic Arm.
Nothing could be more important than this.
Even after Little Flame had devoured countless Imperial-rank Flame Sovereign avatars, breaking through to the Imperial rank, Su Ping didn't have much time to spare.
And indeed, Su Ping didn't need to be too concerned.
Just like before, at the bottom of the undersea volcano, as long as Little Flame had the corresponding memories, it could master the Flame Sovereign's skills without much resource assistance. It only needed precise control over flames and complete energy operation to achieve this.
Such abilities and techniques were enviable even to other beasts, unless they also had a Legendary-rank soul origin.
So, there was no need to worry about Little Flame. Instead, Su Ping, having received feedback from Little Flame, completed the first tier breakthrough of the Imperial rank on this day, becoming a second-tier Imperial Beastmaster.
This didn't bring about any changes for Su Ping, perhaps the biggest change was that when he activated his talent 'Overclocked Spirit' for calculations, he could use it for a longer duration.
At this very moment, an extremely secretive aircraft arrived from the Imperial Capital and hovered above the Heart of All Spirits.
The visitor on this aircraft was none other than two individuals from the Imperial Capital.
In addition to the Saint Dragon Legend, there was another person.
It was the president of the Breeder's Association, Feng Lao, who had always been at the top of the breeder rankings in the Dragon Nation.
This showed the immense power and attraction of an entirely new category of beasts.
For Su Ping and Zhu Hong, the arrival of this person also relieved a great burden.
This matter was too important.
At the first opportunity, they had already informed Feng Lao and the Saint Dragon Legend.
As for the others, not even the Cold Master, had they spoken about it.
The implications were immense, beyond imagination.
The Saint Dragon Legend, accompanied by Feng Lao, descended and directly approached Su Ping, the only one who had received them and knew of their personal arrival:
"Su Ping, is the information confirmed? Where is it? Let me see!"
This was the first time Su Ping had seen this legendary figure showing signs of losing his composure.
Indeed, this legendary figure, who was perhaps only half a step away from the mythical God-rank, showed signs of losing his composure when facing a Common-rank beast.
Because no one understood the significance of an entirely new category of beasts better than him.
Back then, the mechanical revolution sparked by mechanical beasts continued to impact the present, and exploration in the starry skies still lagged slightly.
When Su Ping casually mentioned that he seemed to have inadvertently created an entirely new type of beast, even the usually unflappable Saint Dragon Legend couldn't contain his excitement.
He almost lost his composure.
Leading the 130-year-old Feng Lao, they headed straight for Su Ping.
Seeing their excitement and awe, Su Ping also understood the gravity of the situation.
Leading these two, they once again arrived at Zhu Hong's research institute.
The three of them immediately saw the creature in the water tank.
In just one day, the Oceanic Arm's rank had improved again.
It had reached the Common ninth rank.
This was normal, after all, it was a Holy Spirit-rank beast with a foundation far beyond the ordinary.
Additionally, with Meng Yao and Zhu Hong's nearly unlimited resource supply, countless in number, well-fed and well-rested, almost without the need for intervals between promotions.
In a few more days, breaking through to the Advanced rank was not impossible.
"Saint Dragon Legend?"
"Feng Lao?"
Two voices rang out, but Zhu Hong and Meng Yao paid them no mind as they approached the Oceanic Arm.
Looking at it, it didn't seem like a beast at all, and he couldn't help but stroke his chin, then turned to Su Ping.
Su Ping had already tried numerous times that day, and he looked directly at Meng Yao.
Meng Yao understood and once again picked up the item, connecting his soul more closely with it. In an instant, the fusion was complete.
Meng Yao's arm transformed into a blue Qilin arm, and he activated the Water Shield once more.
"Is this really possible? A beastmaster's spiritual power can fuse with the beast's skill ability, enhancing the beastmaster's combat power and taking it to the next level."
"Well done, well done, impressive, impressive!"
Although it was just a Water Shield, the sharp eyes of the two in the room saw the key to its success.
At present, it was just a Water Shield, but what about future breeding? Once fully bred, if it could reach the Saint Spirit Rank, then after fusing with its owner, the combat power it could unleash would likely surpass the extent of 1+1=2.
Such an enhancement.
It was hard to say if it could rival the revolution brought about by mechanical beasts, but it would definitely amplify and enhance the combat power of Dragon Nation's beastmasters.
Saint Dragon Legend immediately saw the potential in terms of combat power, while Feng Lao, with his focus on breeding, had a different perspective. He wasn't as excited as Saint Dragon Legend; instead, he furrowed his brows slightly and looked at Su Ping:
"Su Ping, if this beast can only be created by you alone, then it can only be considered a unique and impressive beast, but not a new type."
However, it was difficult to create a new type of beast in a short time, one that could have a massive impact and be mass-produced, even farmed.
Mechanical beasts couldn't be farmed, but they were also quite luxurious. The gold element core and information activation completed the birth of mechanical beasts.
It could be mass-produced.
However, this Possession-type beast was, from a certain perspective, a variant of an elemental beast. If it could only be created by Su Ping, then it couldn't be considered a new type of beast but merely a mutated, special elemental beast.
So, this was the most critical decision!
Upon hearing this, Su Ping fell silent for a moment.
Indeed, even Su Ping didn't dare say if he could completely mass-produce this beast. Whether it was life sculpting or soul consciousness molding, it couldn't be done without Su Ping himself.
Such an ability could either be passed on to others or completed with semi-finished products using other resources.
However, thinking about it, this was incredibly difficult.
But after a moment of contemplation, Su Ping nodded:
"I don't have a complete method yet, but it's all about human effort. The most challenging step has already been taken; the rest is just a matter of time!"
His confidence stemmed primarily from his unique ability.
The second evolution of the Annihilation Eye in the Ten Thousand Spirit Codex was Su Ping's ace, and if that wasn't enough, the Ten Thousand Spirit Codex had just opened up a new type of beast for simulation breeding, which Su Ping could now fully utilize to quickly and flawlessly find the key and improve it.
Feng Lao nodded:
"Su Ping..."
He wanted to say something but ultimately couldn't find the right words.
The young man before him had, in just a few years, traversed a path that most beast breeders would never dare to dream of.
Even leaving a name in history was a certainty for this young man, but the way he had done it, engraving a brighter pearl on the crown of beast breeders, was truly inspiring.
No one asked about Feng Lao's hesitation.
It was because the impact of what was before them was unparalleled.
Even though it wasn't yet fully perfected.
However, with the most critical result, as Su Ping had said, all that was left was to refine it.
Saint Dragon Legend, after snapping out of his daze, slowly said:
"Su Ping, although you understand the gravity of this, you must not speak of this to anyone, including those present here. No one must let others know about this again!"
His serious expression ensured everyone took it seriously, even Meng Yao, who was all attention and didn't dare relax.
This is indeed a matter that cannot be taken lightly.
The birth of a new type of beast!
If news of this gets out, not to mention others, even the legendary existence in the Falcon Kingdom, that cunning Falcon, might not be able to resist coming to assassinate Su Ping personally.
This is no exaggeration.
The emergence of a new species of beast represents immense potential and countless new breeding paths, which undoubtedly signifies an uncharted golden path.
If they don't get a share, those legendary Beastmasters, and even the Ferocious Beast Empire, will go crazy with assassination attempts.
Upon realizing this, even Su Ping shuddered.
Even with Qian Yi's ability to directly confront a Holy Spirit-ranked opponent, it doesn't mean he can truly defeat other Holy Spirit-ranked Beastmasters, let alone those of legendary rank.
So, he spoke up directly, "Aside from Master Zhu and Master Yan Sheng, Jia Ji should also know about this, but she probably doesn't know that I've succeeded yet."
The Dragon Sovereign Legend frowned, "Jia Ji... How's her situation?"
If he knew that Su Ping could achieve this in just two short years, he would never have agreed to let Jia Ji manipulate that external incarnation back then.
Compared to a completely new species of beast, an external incarnation is nothing!
Su Ping nodded, "It's almost done. I've found a reasonable solution. Once the materials and preparations are ready, it should be resolved."
"That's good. Speaking of her, she's also a potential ally, and compared to the Water Sovereign's true body, she has much less ill will towards our Dragon Nation."
The Dragon Sovereign Legend breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as the front lines are united, there usually won't be any trouble.
Moreover, it's unlikely that anyone would believe this even if they were told.
Despite Su Ping having created countless miracles already, if it's said that he can create an entirely new type of beast, others would either think he's gone mad or lost his mind.
This is the common sense perspective.
However, this Dragon Sovereign Legend is known for his meticulous work, so after some thought, he extended his hand, and a light appeared before everyone.
A small, snowy figure lightly leaped into view.
It was none other than the White Tiger.
"From today onwards, I won't be bringing Xiao Bai with me. Xiao Bai, from now on, you're responsible for Su Ping's personal safety."
"This... Dragon Sovereign, is this appropriate?"
The Dragon Sovereign Legend didn't speak, but the White Tiger beside him said,
"Alright, Su Ping, since the master has spoken, from now on, I, the great one, will protect you, meow! Work hard, meow!"
Throughout history, few have received the honor of being personally guarded by a legendary beast.
Even Su Ping felt overwhelmed by this.
However, he seemed to remember something and took this opportunity to ask the Dragon Sovereign Legend a condition he had forgotten before:
"Dragon Sovereign, may I ask you for a favor?"
The Dragon Sovereign waved his hand, "Go ahead. If you succeed in possessing a beast, you can even empty my treasure trove without issue."
Thinking of the Dragon Sovereign's extravagant treasure trove, Su Ping's heart stirred, but he still said, "It's not about that. I'd like to ask you to move Meng Yan's cultivation place to the Heart of All Spirits. Is that possible?"
"Meng..."
The Dragon Sovereign Legend subconsciously glanced at Meng Yao beside him.
"Meng Yan? Or Meng Huang?
The legendary spy, whose current rank no longer poses a threat to Su Ping.
If possible, Su Ping wanted to take the time to perfect the cultivation he had been thinking about for a long time.
"No problem. I'll give the order. I believe the assassination attempts from the Falcon Kingdom have ceased, and with you here, his safety should be guaranteed.
However, you should prepare for the Breeder Competition this year. Let's see if you can discover more geniuses like yourself."
Everyone smiled, but they all knew it was impossible.
