“Well then, carry on…” Su Ping mumbled something in their language. Without further ado, he crushed his heart and all his internal organs with his astral powers. Suicide was the only way out.

Given the rich experience he had accumulated in the Chaotic Realm of the Undead, Su Ping could immediately tell that those gods were formidable beings. They were kings of kings.

To capture him, one look from those people would be enough.

The gods were all stunned to see blood oozing out and how Su Ping had killed himself all of a sudden.

They had lived long years and had witnessed many events. Even so, they had been left baffled by this scene.

“Wasn’t there a seal… outside our meeting hall?”

“How did… this human get inside?”

Having committed suicide, Su Ping had to choose to revive at a random place.

This time, he was a bit relieved. He had reappeared in a remote, thickly forested mountain. He called out the Dark Dragon Hound and the Inferno Dragon at once to lead the way and continue to find other beasts so that they could practice.

While they were moving forward, Su Ping was looking around as well. This was a world of the gods. If he could pick up some precious herbs along the way, he could take them back and sell them at a good price.

Not long afterward, they met a beast at the peak of the ninth rank of the plant family.

The Dark Dragon Hound leading the way was the first to run into this beast. Without any hesitation, Su Ping ordered all the pets to move out and join in the fight.

Time zipped by during the rounds after rounds of battles and deaths.

Su Ping would remain in the Demigod Burial for seven days.

Only seven hours would have passed in the world outside.

After the first day, Su Ping had died 13 times and that had cost him 1560 energy points.

He didn’t count the times the pets had died, but they certainly went through death over a hundred times.

Sometimes, Su Ping’s deaths were worthless. For example, when he was killed just as he was brought back to life, that death would be “futile.”

When he was resting, Su Ping did a calculation of their achievements. During that first day, he had spent 1560 energy points, which was a large number but at the same time, the trip was fruitful!

The Inferno Dragon had learned the “Inferno Dragonfire” at the very beginning, a multi-level skill that belonged to the beast kings. The Inferno Dragon had grown stronger, even though its aptitude was still rated as above average. Even so, Su Ping believed that the Inferno Dragon had made some progress, which was not completely reflected by the evaluation.

The Inferno Dragon’s combat strength had increased from 9.4 to 9.6.

That was an increase of 0.2!

When the pet’s combat strength reached the 9.0 rating, even a 0.1 progress would make a world of difference. To move up by a decimal was incredibly hard at this level.

The 0.2 increase could be interpreted as the Inferno Dragon having moved up by one position.

Given the Inferno Dragon’s current abilities, to kill beasts at the intermediate position of the ninth rank would be a child’s play. The Inferno Dragon could fight and find a chance to escape when running into beasts at the upper position of the ninth rank.

If the Inferno Dragon were to devote all of its energy and use the Inferno Dragonfire, it could even hurt beast kings. It was just that, this choice would spell its death, since it would not even have the strength to run away.

The Little Skeleton had a combat strength of 9.9. At the moment, the Inferno Dragon was Su Ping’s second most powerful pet, his lieutenant!

For the second half of the day, the Inferno Dragon made some progress but its combat strength remained at 9.6. At this stage, without a major breakthrough, to move upward would prove to be difficult.

Below the Inferno Dragon was the Dark Dragon Hound.

Its combat strength was 9.2

The Dark Dragon Hound could kill most beasts at the lower position of the ninth rank on its own.

After a day of repeated deaths, the Dark Dragon Hound had become more powerful and agile. Still, its combat strength stayed at 9.2. Su Ping assumed that after another day of training, the Dark Dragon Hound’s combat strength would go up by 0.1, reaching the 9.3 rating Su Ping was satisfied with an increase of 0.1 after two days. It would be surprising if the Dark Dragon Hound’s combat strength could rise to 9.5 after seven days.

The weakest of his pets was the Purple Python with a combat strength of 9.1.

As a pet with a sixth-rank bloodline, to reach a combat strength of 9.1 was already incredible. The Purple Python had an above average aptitude.

Su Ping’s expectation for the Purple Python was to see its combat strength go up to 9.5, or 9.4, or at least 9.3 after seven days.

Up until then, the pet with the most noticeable progress was the Celestial Pig.

Its combat strength had grown to 5.2 from the original 4.1!

While the Celestial Pig had been squashed into minced pork time after time, its potential was tapped. Although the Celestial Pig was still pink all over, the patterns on its skin had changed.

The patterns seemed to be some miraculous and complicated energy channels that enabled the Celestial Pig’s energy flow to become smoother, and more efficient. The Celestial Pig could react much faster at the moment, and it had a new skill to build a shield.

Su Ping noticed that all the pets he trained could master one or two defensive skills.

The Dark Dragon Hound was the expert in that regard and the Inferno Dragon was not any weaker. Usually, a pet like the Purple Python would know next to nothing about energy skills. But at the moment, even the Purple Python had learned Earth Shield or how to hide underground to flee…

The day was a veritable torture. The Celestial Pig was still timid as a mouse but it could become ferocious when pushed into a hopeless situation, daring to put up a desperate fight against the enemies. For battle pets, that trait was definitely valuable.

The Celestial Pig’s aptitude was also improved.

There was hope that the Celestial Pig could better its aptitude to reach the above average level.

The times when they were rushing forward as they traveled were the times when Su Ping could have some rest.

Soon, several days had slipped away.

Five days later.

Dead insect bodies had filled up a dark cave.

Su Ping sat on the ground and leaned against a rock to take a breather. Next to him were the scarred pets.

The previous fight noises had completely quieted down.

All the insects had been killed, only leaving their corpses behind. Even their beast-king level queen had been torn apart by the Inferno Dragon and the Little Skeleton and then torched by the Inferno Dragonfire.

I might be able to pick up some rewards if I bring this back with my information about this place. Su Ping looked at the corpses and smiled a self-mocking smile.

He didn’t go to the cave after a random revival but of his own choice.

During the past several days fighting, apart from beasts, he had also met some gods and some adventurers.

Su Ping had obtained the map of this cave from those gods and adventurers, and with it he had attained a better understanding of the Demigod Burial.

The Demigod Burial was boundless. Apart from the heartland where some of the supreme gods resided, smaller lands were floating around in the void by the edge of the Demigod Burial. Those small lands had residents of the god race as well; those places were considered the countryside but they were much larger than the countryside on the blue planet.

Those small lands were fractures that had fallen off from the Demigod Burial.

Some supreme gods were managing the Demigod Burial and there were many cities here.

The god race dwellers didn’t lead comfortable lives. They had to battle against the insects and bugs that would invade through the void, generation after generation. The cave that Su Ping had just cleared out was a cave built by the insects in this deserted place after they invaded.

There were many more of those caves in the deserted areas.

Su Ping didn’t go there to help clean out the insects. Several days past, during one of the fights, he had killed other insects like this. He noticed that there was a special kind of crystal inside them. The system identified the crystal and told him they were called Divine Crystals.

Those Divine Crystals had a rich energy that could be consumed by the pets.

The system didn’t disclose the exact effects because it would cost Su Ping energy points.

The price was unreasonable, one hundred thousand energy points for the briefing. Su Ping gave up on paying without a second thought. He chose to find out on his own.

Luckily, he had many pets. After harvesting some Divine Crystals, he had the Dark Dragon Hound take them first.

After the Dark Dragon Hound took the Divine Crystals, Su Ping found some golden hair mixed in with the dark hair. A new property was added to the Dark Dragon HoundDivinity Value!

Currently, the Dark Dragon Hound’s Divinity value was 22

/100.
