Chapter 1003: Training the Path Beast

“Howl!”

The young beast howled at Su Ping, gazing at Su Ping curiously with its smart eyes; he could see his own reflection in them.

After a while, the young beast pointed its short claw at its abdomen, as if saying that it was hungry.

Su Ping was surprised by the gesture, as the beast seemed to be very smart for a newborn.

Without a word, he simply picked up a pet contract and stuck it to its head.

Since he was a Star State warrior, he was able to contract ten pets, and there were still a lot of openings available; he never tried having as many pets as possible.

Pet’s couldn’t play a decisive role in battle in his case, since he could fight opponents beyond his level. However, the fate and position of most battle pet warriors could change once they owned a rare and powerful pet!

The young beast didn’t resist. Instead, it stared at Su Ping’s hand curiously. The contract was soon established, and a subtle connection appeared between them.

Su Ping was relieved to see that nothing had gone wrong during the contract process. He had been concerned, worrying that his unusual pet would cause trouble during the contracting. But everything was fine.

“Kid, you’ll be mine from now on. Since you look like a mix of an elephant and a qilin, I’ll just call you Qilin Elephant,” said Su Ping with a smile, touching the beast’s head.

The beast blinked, obviously unable to understand him. However, it saw Su Ping’s friendly smile, so it also gave an innocent smile.

Su Ping saw it was touching its belly with its front laws. He couldn’t help but ask with a smile, “Are you hungry? What do you want to eat?”

“Howl!”

The beast opened its mouth, showing the teeth inside. It pointed at its belly again to express its hunger.

Once seeing that, Su Ping tried to communicate with it via telepathy. He also asked the system about the beast’s food, which he didn’t know at all. Food was very important in order to train the beast well and have it grow in a healthy way.

Although its quality might improve with the things it ate, it was the best creature in all universes; Su Ping didn’t think he or any top trainer of the Federation could possibly improve its quality. It was already a perfect life from every perspective!

All he needed to do was to satisfy its needs and not disappoint it.

After all, it wasn’t unusual that a great pet was weaker than its own kind if it wasn’t properly trained or fed.

“All advanced lives are its food,” replied the system shortly.

“All lives?” Su Ping was stunned.

The beast seemed to have detected something at that moment. It turned around and flew towards the Chaos Spirit Pool where it had been incubated. It crouched at the edge of the pool and looked around curiously.

Did it detect chaos aura?

Su Ping wasn’t too surprised. After all, The Chaos Path Beast had been born in chaos and lived off of chaos aura; it was naturally sensitive about chaos aura.

He picked up the little beast and said, “Let’s go. I’ll feed you first.”

Su Ping opened the door, Su Ping returned to the lobby. The beast in his arms seemed to have detected something and tried to fly away.

Su Ping looked in the direction where it was sniffing, and saw a customer giving Joanna his pet, which was to be trained. It was a Star State dragon with an excellent bloodline; it could grow and become a Star Lord, and a rather tough one at that.

The beast’s eyes glittered when it saw the dragon. It would have charged at the dragon, were it not for Su Ping holding it back.

Su Ping quickly restrained it. He sensed the greediness and craving for food felt from the beast’s consciousness. It obviously wanted to eat the dragon!

The newborn beast dared to attack a Star State dragon. It was truly bold!

Although the dragon didn’t release any pressure, its natural aura had prevented the customers around and their pets from approaching it. They were rather uncomfortable. And yet, the young beast didn’t seem to feel anything.

“Boss.”

“Boss Su!”

The customers in the lobby quickly greeted Su Ping after seeing him.

Joanna and the Green Lady looked at him too, and saw the young beast in his arms. Both of them were astonished.

“Was it… hatched from the path beast’s egg?” Green Lady’s voice echoed in Su Ping’s head. She was rarely as shocked.

Joanna asked him telepathically too; she was much more anxious than she usually was.

Su Ping smiled, not keeping it a secret from them.

He too knew how fascinating the Chaos Path Beast was.

Once he thought that when the young beast in his arms grew up, nobody in his universe would be able to defeat it. Su Ping was really conflicted, as he lowered his head and looked at the plump creature.

It will be invincible the moment it reaches adulthood… Human geniuses cannot compare to it, at all.?Su Ping felt troubled after that.

“Howl!”

The beast extended its elephant nose and let out noises of hunger. It would have darted towards the dragon without Su Ping.

The dragon detected the young beast too, and immediately sensed its aggressiveness. Anger appeared in the dragon’s eyes; however, the anger inside looked at the young beast, it came and went, too active for words; the anger in its eyes was quickly gone. It shivered, as if it had seen something horrifying.

Su Ping was lost for words upon seeing the dragon trembling. It couldn’t have recognized the young beast, but was simply awed by the strange vitality field it carried; it was also possibly because of the power of time and space that the young beast carried, which was hard to grasp even for Star Lord beasts.

“That’s not food. Be a good kid.” Su Ping extended his hand and soothed the pet.

The dragon’s master was shocked by what Su Ping said. He was really sensitive about the environment, given his Fate State battle pet warrior. The greed and hunger shown by the beast in Su Ping’s arms was indicative that it regarded the pet as food.

But I paid a fortune for the dragon!

“B-Boss.” The dragon’s master wasn’t at all relieved after hearing Su Ping’s statement. Instead, he became nervous and asked, “Is it fine for me to put my pet here?”

Su Ping waved his hand and said, “Don’t worry. It will be taken care of and trained well.”

The man hesitated. He wasn’t worried about the training; he feared that something might happen to his pet.

Su Ping didn’t stay long in the lobby. He entrusted the store to Joanna, and then activated a cultivation site in the pet room.

I should go to an advanced plane for advanced lives. Might as well go to the Archean Divinity, and ask more about the world multiplication technique at the Heaven Path Institute,?Su Ping thought.

He checked his remaining energy. His savings for the past three years had mostly been spent on hatching the little beast. He didn’t have a lot of energy left, but it was enough for a few trips to the Archean Divinity.

“You’ve cost me a billion energy points. You must earn them back in the future,” said Su Ping to the beast he was carrying in his arms.

The young beast looked at Su Ping at a loss.

Su Ping ignored it and found the Archean Divinity on the list again. He entered it.

Once the familiar teleportation was over, Su Ping immediately felt the exuberant divine power around him. He found himself in the middle of golden clouds; there was a lake of divine power in the floating clouds.

The lake was actually made of divine power, which was too thick and sticky.

“Where am I?” Su Ping observed the environment; he was already used to being teleported to a random, strange area.

Underneath the sky was a vast, desolate sea. Shadows of behemoths could be seen in the depths of the sea, which looked like islands slowly moving underwater.

He didn’t know where he was, at all.

Su Ping took out the Heaven Path Institute’s badge, hoping to teleport himself back with it, but to no avail. Obviously, he wasn’t in the same continent where the Heaven Path Institute was located.

Never mind. I’ll just die a few more times and resurrect elsewhere.

Su Ping flew into the golden clouds and tried to absorb the sticky divine power in the lake. At the moment, the beast in his arms had also detected the lake; it immediately tried to fly towards it.

Su Ping released the beast once he saw this.

After leaving Su Ping’s arms, the beast instantly flew towards the glowing clouds and threw itself at the lake. Its big ears rapidly absorbed the divine power like vortices.

It likes absorbing divine power too? It seems that it doesn’t have a favorite food.?Su Ping didn’t stop it. Even if he were to absorb the divine power, he could only store it in his body, which he couldn’t use to improve his combat ability. After all, he had grasped a few skills based on divine power.

Also, now that he had acquired a top pet like the Chaos Path Beast, his top priority was to develop it into adulthood. Then, he would be able to crush any opponent with his pet, which would be an exhilarating possibility.

“You should come out too.”

Su Ping summoned the Little Skeleton, the Dark Dragon Hound and the other pets. He wasn’t biased. The chaos beast was his training focus at the moment, but he didn’t think his other pets would be any weaker; his pets would grow together with him.

“P-Partner?”

The Inferno Dragon flew out, then looked at Su Ping in confusion after seeing the chaos beast.

Su Ping nodded. “Yes. It’s a partner and a new friend that will fight with you from now on!”

The Inferno Dragon and the Little Skeleton were happy after such news; a long time passed since they saw a new partner. They immediately gathered around the beast.

Once it saw the Inferno Dragon, the little chaos beast blinked hungrily and jumped to the dragon’s back and bit it hard.

However, its new teeth were too soft to bite through the Inferno Dragon’s thick skin.

“Huh?”

Such an odd development made Su Ping change his expression. His smile was gone, and he grabbed the chaos beast from the place by the lake of divine power, before he declared coldly and solemnly, “They’ll be your partners in the future. I know you have a noble bloodline and regard other creatures as food. But they are not food. Remember that!”

The chaos beast struggled, but then trembled when it saw Su Ping’s cold eyes. It looked at Su Ping and then at the Little Skeleton, the Dark Dragon Hound and the Inferno Dragon around him. The little creature eventually shifted its eyes back to Su Ping and howled in confusion, as if asking Su Ping what partner meant.

Su Ping realized what was on its mind, but didn’t answer. Real partners didn’t need any definition. It would find the meaning to that question after fighting alongside them.

“Me okay,” said the Inferno Dragon quickly, since it noticed that Su Ping was angry. Its accent gave Su Ping quite the headache.

Su Ping shook his head and looked down at the sea. He then saw a shadow about five hundred meters long swimming there. He quickly swooped down and said, “Something’s down there. Take it down!”

Both the Little Skeleton and the Dark Dragon Hound were observing their new partner curiously. They then took action as soon as they heard Su Ping’s order; their bodies reacted faster to Su Ping’s instructions than their brain did. They swooped together with him.

Since it had been summoned by Su Ping via the contract, the chaos beast followed him, although it was reluctant to leave the lake of divine power. They flew towards the surface of the sea together.

Su Ping raised his hand and launched a sword aura into the sea. The sea beast was directly affected. It roared in fury.

Ascendant State?

Su Ping detected its level, but he wasn’t frightened by that. He stopped in the high sky, and commanded his pets to move forward as usual. This time—being the new member of the group—the chaos beast also participated in the battle under Su Ping’s command.

The beast had just been born recently, it had strange abilities and Su Ping didn’t regard it as a simple young beast.

To his surprise, the little one barely hesitated for a moment after seeing the Ascendant beast. Then, it charged as per his instruction.

It’s not afraid of an Ascendant State beast? It’s not an idiot, is it??Su Ping was lost for words when he saw the chubby chaos beast throw itself into the sea like a steamed bun. He discovered that the little creature didn’t seem to know what fear was. Even if it was a Chaos Path Beast, it was still very little!

The beast in the sea was infuriated. Once it noticed the approaching enemies, it let out a roar and triggered a circle with strange ripples, which then caused ripples in the water and in the air.
