Astral Pet Store

Chapter 1244 Broken Seal

Exactly at that moment—the power of time and space was imposed on that saint and was about to spirit him away.

Still, Su Ping’s sword grew, its sharp aura cutting space and time laws apart.
The saint instinctively released his Ascendant world to block, but instantly fell apart like tofu.
The sword cut him to pieces, starting from his forehead.

His body crumbled, and a violent power coming from the Dao Patterns ripped him to shreds.

All the pieces of flesh were scattered, still infused with divine power and vitality, but the soul power was sealed, making it impossible for the saint to escape or reconstruct his body.

“That’s impossible!”

The other four saints were shocked; all their indifferent demeanor was gone.
They were top Heavenly Lords, comparable to the Celestial’s best disciples, such as Song Yuan and Liu Xia.
They could even crush those Heavenly Lords in team fights with their fusion technique.

However, Su Ping had actually chopped one of their partners with one strike, making it impossible for the man to recover.

The saint had yet to die, but his current condition wasn’t far from it.

All Su Ping needed to do was erase the soul power found in the flesh.

“Get out of my way!”

Su Ping glanced at the four remaining saints with cold eyes.
He waved a hand and sent the torn flesh into his small world to seal it.

Then, he ignored the remaining saints and entered the realm’s crack along with Greeny.

Beyond the crack was a vast world.

It was just like space

However, there were no stars to be found; the environment was hazy and boundless.
There was a broken staircase which led to an island in that empty space.

A gate and a statue were found on the island.

The statue depicted a woman with dark eyebrows.
Even though the statue had been worn by time, its eyes were still glittering vividly like stars.
It was like a deity in the woods, sacred and untouchable.

In front of the statue was a woman in pure white clothes, wreathed in a holy glow, like an unstained angel from heaven.

The woman was looking up at the statue, as if examining her reflection.

Su Ping narrowed his eyes and quickly flew towards them.

“You’re late,” said a cold and casual voice as he moved closer.
It was the same voice that had previously shouted ‘Boundless Realm and had Song Yuan and the others teleported.

Su Ping watched the woman turn around and reveal her stunningly beautiful face.
She seemed colder and more nonchalant than the statue next to her.

“Are you the Saint Heir those saints were talking about?” Su Ping sized her up and put on a grim expression.

The woman looked at Su Ping with peaceful eyes and said, “You’re a genius hailing from one of the duplicates of the Original Planet, not even a hundred years old yet.
Your life was unremarkable before the age of twenty; from that point on, you gained control over your family’s pet store and your life quickly rose, showing potential on par with those found in core disciples of major families.

“You resolved your planet’s crisis and brought it back to the scope Federation, thus entering the universe’s mainstream.
Later you became Shen Huang’s disciple after winning the Universe Geniuses’ Contest.

“You were as strong as the first place of the Divine Lord Rank when you were in the Star State!

“You’ve cultivated multiple small worlds.
Right now, even though you’re only a Star Lord, you’re able to kill Ascendant cultivators and even Heavenly Lords!”

The woman casually and calmly talked about Su Ping’s past.
“This is all thanks to the master in your pet store, right? It’s the demonic store that’s only been recorded in ancient tales; looks like you’re the chosen successor of this era.”

Su Ping narrowed his eyes with a dangerous glint in them.
“You know me quite well, don’t you? You even know about the demonic store? Looks like the Planet of Origin has lots of information stored.
Why don’t you tell me if there’s another demonic store at your place?”

“I wouldn’t have noticed you if you had just become the champion of the Universe Geniuses’ Contest.
You only caught our eye because of your multiple small worlds’ technique.”

The woman added casually, “Your identity is at level 7, while I have access to all the classified information up to level 9.
I even know Celestial experts’ secrets.
Besides, you never went out of your way to hide your past.
Any level-7 investigator would have found all about you.”

“You’re right.”

Su Ping knew she was right; anyone interested in him could dig out his past, even down to the color of his underpants when he was little.

He had tried to cover up his past, partly because it was impossible and partly because he didn’t really care; it was better to spend time on becoming stronger than to hide his information.
As long as he was strong enough, it wouldn’t matter if all his secrets were divulged.

“What are you getting at?” Su Ping looked at the woman.

“You’re just a lucky dog who used to be mediocre until you received the store’s legacy.
It’s said that this mysterious store brings up an invincible expert to dominate every era!”

The woman slowly elaborated about the store’s secret.
“At first I thought it was only a story when I learned of it.
I imagined that the pet store I randomly entered was the demonic store; I never thought the demonic store really existed.
This makes me really curious… What’s the store’s criteria for choosing a successor?”

“Criteria?”

Su Ping considered for a moment and said, “I think the most important requirement is that you have to be handsome!”

The system: “Bulls*it!”

Just as I thought.
Su Ping knew he was right after hearing the system’s denial.
The woman was stunned and silent for a few seconds, before she finally said, “If all your power was bestowed upon you by the demonic store, including your multiple small worlds, I gather you were basically an ordinary person to begin with.
One might even say that you’re a… loser!”

“That I am.”

Su Ping clapped his hands and said, “That’s one of the prerequisites for my rise.”

The woman stared at him, suddenly realizing that trying to communicate with him wasn’t the best idea.

“The demonic store…” After a brief silence, the woman heaved a sigh of regret and said, “You were such a mediocre fellow, and yet you’ve been brought up to become an unparalleled genius who can defeat enemies above your level.
Maybe I could have done better if I were the one chosen.”

“Do you envy me?” Su Ping sighed.
“I can understand.
I envy myself too.”

The woman couldn’t hold back any longer after such an answer.
She gazed at him coldly and replied, “You’re absolutely brainless despite your power, completely incapable of making basic communication.
The demonic store made a horrible mistake by picking you as successor.
However, this mistake will be corrected today.
You’re just an unremarkable sod despite the demonic store’s training.
I will take over your pet store after you perish today.”

Seeing that she was flying into a rage, Su Ping smiled and said, “Why should I communicate with you? According to my master, all the saints from the Planet of Origin are lofty people devoted to maintaining order in the universe.
And yet you’re here, first in line to hog the treasure.
Do you really deserve to be called ‘saints’?”

The woman said coldly, “From what I know, the demonic store can protect you within a certain range of its building, but you can be killed when venturing outside!

“You must have chosen to come here because Old Monster Ye can’t come here due to the Mayhem Star Zone’s restrictions.
How hilarious.
The demonic store’s successor is trying to get the universe dominator’s heritage, when the store’s legacy alone should be more than enough to become invincible.
Don’t you even know that? “Or maybe you’re simply too weak to hold back your greed?”

Su Ping narrowed his eyes.
“You do know a lot of things, but I’m here for a different purpose than yours.
Even though we’re both fighting for the legacy, you’re doing it for yourself, while I’m doing it for my pets.
This emperor-level legacy is not good enough for me to use.”

“For your pets?” The woman was first stunned then she turned cold, thinking that Su Ping was deliberately trying to humiliate both her and the universe dominator.
“Do you really think your pet deserves a universe dominator’s legacy?”

“You’re wrong.
I’m considering whether or not the universe dominator’s legacy is good enough for my pets.” Su Ping couldn’t have sounded more arrogant.

The woman breathed heavily after hearing that; she was furious, despite her outward coldness and composure.
Especially after learning of the ancient corpse’s glorious past, she thought that Su Ping was insulting him.

“Unfortunately, you’re late.”

The woman said coldly, “The legacy is already mine; I’ve already finished absorbing it during our conversation.
Maybe you would have had a slim chance of interfering with the inheritance in the beginning.

“It’s useless now, though.
The barriers would have stopped you even if you tried attacking.
They can block the attack of a Celestial expert, let alone one of yours.” A golden crack appeared on her forehead while she spoke.
The crack then quickly spread out like the veins of a leaf, covering her forehead, cheeks, neck and the rest of her body.

An ancient and mysterious aura was slowly emitted from her body, like golden waves, gradually becoming more powerful and abundant.

She then started to levitate and rise to the sky, her silver hair fluttering in midair.
There was a hint of golden light in her eyes, where complicated patterns were flashing about.
Those were the Dao Glyphs, the foundation of the universe!

Su Ping was gloomy.
He had noticed that the woman’s aura was off when he arrived.
He had just realized that he was still one step too late.

Just as I expected, I’m not the protagonist.
I’m not always lucky; nothing good has ever happened to me, except for the system checking my every thought.
Lin Chen snatched the Celestial legacy.
My luck wasn’t good either, back on the Blue Planet…

Su Ping sighed in his heart.
That woman was more likely to be the chosen one.
She was born extraordinary, with access to inexhaustible resources when she grew up; she even had guards protecting her while she tried to get the legacy.

Considering her privileges, she could have spent her life eating, partying and having fun.

“System, do you have any idea what’s going on? She just inherited the legacy; she doesn’t have the emperor-level power yet, does she?” asked Su Ping with hope.

He would stand no chance of escaping if she did have the power.

Running back to the Celestial Court would be of no use, either.
She would catch up to him in a flash.

He wouldn’t survive unless he made it back to the store.

“The legacy is meant to transfer the previous owner’s power to someone else.
Absorption takes time; it’s not as simple as handing a gift.
Inheriting the legacy can be risky, and it may result in a loss of power.”

The system’s voice became cold and solemn.
“The person before you is at the top of the Ascendant State; she should be able to reach the Celestial State after receiving the legacy.
Still, it’ll take ten to a thousand years for her to reach the emperor level.”

“The Celestial State realm…”

Su Ping’s eyes glittered.
“All Celestial power is disabled in the Mayhem Star Zone.
She can’t use the power even if she gets it, right?”

“You have to make your own decisions.
Cultivation sites are the only places for you to grow up in.
Your universe is where you should hone yourself; you have to avoid dangers on your own,” said the system.

Su Ping couldn’t help but complain, “Stop messing with me.
Why are you being so serious all of a sudden? You would have to look for another host if I die.
Can’t you tell me something for old time’s sake?”

“No,” replied the system quickly and decisively.

“Are you really planning on getting a new host? You heard what she said and now you want her to be your host?” cried Su Ping in his heart.

After a moment of silence—the system said, “Based on current observation, you’re a better host than she will ever be.
If you die, I will look for another host, but I hope that you don’t die.”

Su Ping was dazed.

He had only complained randomly, not expecting such a reply from the system.
You hope that I survive?

I won’t die easily, Su Ping thought.

The system (rolling its eyes): “You’d better focus on dealing with the current crisis.”

The aura released by the woman was already causing changes in space; an abundant amount of power was being gathered in that vast space.
It was the power of chaos, which surrounded the woman like a storm.

Very soon, the chaotic power surrounded the woman like a big ball.

Having no other choices, Su Ping decided to dispel the fusion with his pets, so that they could absorb the energy together.
