Chapter 1460 Fusion (1)

The continent that had been subdivided into nine regions was given a new name.

The Nine States.

Every part of the Nine States had a unique style. The Ascendants that drifted all the way there were given their own territory. The continent gradually became crowded and lively again.

Aside from the Ascendants and the Star Lords, some of the Star State cultivators were also released to build equipment and stores.

While construction was heatedly underway, Basha and the other humanoids sent visitors over.

Su Ping entrusted the matter to Shen Huang and the rest.

The interaction between civilizations would surely make the development of both sides easier, on the premise that they would continue being friendly.

Soon enough, many cultivators gathered once again in Su Ping’s store, all the way in the Central State. They went there to ask him to train their pets.

Having experienced his magnificent pet training service, they considered it as Su Ping’s blessing and a virtually free benefit.

The cyborgs are in a way similar to the gods; they don’t sign contracts with their pets. However, the gods have beast servants anyway, and no one seems to be controlling beasts here.

Su Ping observed that the cyborgs merely focused on self-cultivation. Although humans were the same, they could gain extra power from their pets, even if they had to spend a lot of time nurturing and taking care of them.

“System, can cyborgs use contracts too? If they can, their overall combat ability would increase, right?” asked Su Ping.

The system said casually, “Of course. Contracts are applicable to all species.”

Su Ping nodded. “In that case, I can share the contract method with them as a gesture of friendliness; it’ll make them stronger. After all, the stronger our allies, the more likely we’ll win against the Heavens.”

The system remained silent.

Su Ping discovered that the system was not as talkative as before, even staying silent most of the time. He sometimes even forgot it was there.

“Can I earn energy points if they come to the store after mastering the contract?” asked Su

Ping.

The system replied just as casually, “Of course. Although they wouldn’t be paying with astral coins, it’s fine. Their currency works too; I will convert the currencies to make sure the pricing is the same.”

“Good.”

Su Ping nodded. But he wasn’t in too much of a hurry. They could become wary if he readily offered the contract method to them. His idea was to wait until they became interested. It would be seen as a show of generosity if he gave it to them at that time.

Many things in that world were like that. Voluntary offers were usually not taken seriously.

Su Ping spread out his senses until he covered all the Nine States. After seeing that the overall construction effort was in order, he spoke to his master and Chi Ying telepathically; he told them he would be training in seclusion, and they would be left in charge. They were expected to send word if anything went wrong.

Shen Huang and Chi Ying knew that Su Ping would often seclude himself to cultivate. Unsurprised, both accepted the task.

Su Ping then took the Dark Dragon Hound and his other pets, along with a batch of his customers’ pets, to the cultivation sites for training.

Other than training pets, he wanted to see different civilizations in the cultivation sites.

That way he wouldn’t be completely ignorant if he encountered them in the ocean of universes later.

Time flew.

Su Ping visited and explored a lot of middle-rank cultivation sites. Some of them were full of ferocious beasts, while others had some warm and friendly locals. He even made friends with some of them, who provided a lot of information.

There were species seemingly incapable of lying; they answered everything that Su Ping asked.

Some were aggressive and extremely audacious.

Others lived on fiery lands and fed on original fire.

He didn’t stay for too long on any site because he had just moved to a new place. He would go back everyday or every other day, just in case anything went wrong.

Time passed.

The construction of the Nine States was gradually completed. Thanks to the modifications done by Celestials and Ascendant State cultivators, there were cities everywhere. Some people with low cultivation had appeared in those cities, and appreciated the views of that alien land.

As for the cyborgs

Basha, Crowe and the others were secretly observing the continent too. Although they couldn’t directly see what was going on, they would often send envoys who were warmly received by Shen Huang. They would then have a chance to witness the changes in the Nine States.

Different buildings, different civilizations, different technology and different cultivation methods.

In particular, they found that the new arrivals had a cultivation method to contract and enslave monsters, which shocked them. They saw it as a tyrannical cultivation method.

One species forcefully enslaving another.

It was extremely evil in their eyes.

This made them wary of Su Ping, the foreign ally. In one of the cyborg’s meetings, some of the leaders even proposed that Su Ping and the others be banished.

The main reason for the initiative was that Su Ping and the others were surely extremely dangerous because of the evil technique they cultivated. If they ever thought about enslaving cyborgs, the consequences could be dangerous.

Many cyborgs agreed with the proposal. The voices of rejection didn’t decline until they figured out that the Selvegas had directly approved of their ally. However, many cyborgs were still strongly hostile to Su Ping and the rest.
