"Hurry up and check if there are any other preserved treasures here."
Chen Ruoxue smiled excitedly; she liked this feeling of treasure hunting.
"Don't rush; let's take it slowly." Su Bai smiled as he spoke. They left marks along the way, so the cub would be able to sense anyone coming.
The two searched the cave, but everything else other than the two pet eggs had already been looted.
"Boyfie, come here! There are many kinds of seeds in this box," Chen Rouxue suddenly shouted.
"Wait a sec. Let me finish searching here first."
Su Bai responded.
He had also found a box here. After the Little Tyrant forcibly broke open its lid, he saw a pile of skill jades inside and leaned in to take a closer look:
[Introduction]: Earth Hammer skill jade. The boundless mother earth is turned into a fountain of strength for use. The prerequisite for activating this skill is that the user must be in contact with mother earth.
After the skill is activated, the user can condense at least one golden earth hammer to attack the opponent. This skill does not consume spiritual power, but it tests one's affinity with mother earth as well as their understanding of its law…
*****
Su Bai counted a total of eight skill jades in the box; all of which were Earth Hammer skill jades. This was a relatively unique skill which yielded different powers in the hands of different pets, but it undoubtedly revealed its superb upper limit.
He felt like he could definitely sell it at a good price and could easily ask his senior brother Liu Xinghe for help.
"Roar~"
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64ce79d606107d003c23ea27", id: "pf-5140-1"})Ah Bai, I sensed the breath of an ore; I'll go down to dig.
The Little Tyrant suddenly roared and plunged into a corner of the wall.
"What did you find?" asked Chen Rouxue as she came over with a rotting box.
"Eight earth skill jades with very high upper limits. They can be sold for a lot of money."
As long as these skill jades were not wrapped in rough stones, any skills contained in them could be read with the contract book, and it was easy to see the ordinary skills.
"Wow, then aren't we rich? There's only one box?" she asked, looking around with widened eyes.
"I don't think there's more. What did you find?" asked Su Bai while looking at the box in his girlfriend's hand.
"A box containing seeds. You and Purple Jade can see there's any worth planting."
Chen Rouxue put the box on the ground and opened it to reveal a pile of delicate seeds inside.
"Howl! (* ̆) ̆*)"
Let me take a look.
Walking over, the cub made a gap with its head and took a closer look at the seeds.
"Howl!"
It reached out its paws and took out some seeds, indicating the possibility of germination.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64cc9e79c7059f003e4ad4b0", id: "pf-5109-1"})Su Bai also examined the seeds. These types were quite precious, with some even being almighty seeds. In total, they were worth five to six hundred thousand.
Almighty seeds referred to the no-attribute spiritual fruits but still contained pure and abundant energy. After a pet absorbed it, it could directly turn into the spiritual power needed.
"Let's keep these seeds. My Bloodthirsty Spear Bush experiment just so happens to have a use for them," he said.
"Okay, then. It's all ours, anyway." Chen Rouxue smiled brightly.
Suddenly, a wave of spiritual power wafted from the bottom of the ground, and there was a hint of thick coldness amid the heat.
"Little Tyrant, you've evolved?" asked Su Bai in surprise. What kind of ore had his pet eaten underground? This was obviously an evolution, and he felt it for the first time through the contract book.
He heaved a sigh of relief when the Little Tyrant's evolutionary direction was exactly what he had hoped for.
"Roar~"
Ah Bai, look! I found something good.
A big hole cracked in the ground, and the Little Tyrant rushed out with a low growl, clutching a fiery red ore in its claws.
However, its appearance had changed. Its height was now about 1.2 meters, and its body looked very strong. Its previously smooth dolphin skin had also changed to the rough and hard skin of a rock lizard. Some sharp black bone spurs had even grown on the spine at the back of its head.
"Why do you look more and more ferocious? You're really a tyrant," said Su Bai while looking at his pet, of which the height had reached his waist.
"It's a good match with those fierce, little eyes." Chen Ruoxue laughed.
"This Earth Marrow Flame crystal is good stuff; eat it. It's a reward for your evolution." Su Bai glanced at the flaming red ore between the Little Tyrant's claws.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "663633fa8ebf7442f0652b33", id: "pf-8817-1"})This thing was old and expensive. It could also be used in the potions he usually prepared for the Little Tyrant. No wonder it had broken through after eating such.
Compared to this, the Little Tyrant's evolutionary awakening skill 'Inferno' was only average. However, the large-scale damage of this skill was not too bad.
"Roar~"
Wow, Ah Bai, you're so kind!
The Little Tyrant rushed over and rubbed itself hard against its owner's waist.
It had originally felt a little guilty for secretly eating an Earth Marrow Flame, but not only did Su Bai not blame it, he was even giving it the rest. The Little Tyrant could not describe how happy it was.
"Okay, okay, good boy."
Su Bai almost flew a few steps back with the little guy's force.
"Let's see if there are other things here. Otherwise, we'll get ready to leave." He said after appeasing the Little Tyrant.
Chen Ruoxue nodded and continued searching around.
However, neither of them found any other valuable treasures. After carefully searching twice, he announced, "There's nothing else here, so let's go back. It's almost 4 p.m. Any later and we'll have to spend the night in the wilderness."
"Let's go back, then. There should be no good stuff left." Chen Rouxue nodded in agreement.
"Wait a minute; I'll let the Little Tyrant practice the Earth Hammer skill first."
Su Bai summoned his contract book.
As emerald light glowed, the Earth Hammer skill jade turned into golden runes which merged into the contract book before entering the Little Tyrant's consciousness.
The Little Tyrant stood there in a daze for a long time before understanding dawned on it. It then raised its paws and condensed a one-meter-long golden sledgehammer.
Resting the golden sledgehammer on its shoulder, the Little Tyrant's fierce eyes completed the image of a fierce big brother.
"Not bad. Very handsome. Come on; let's get out of this place." Su Bai nodded with satisfaction.
"Roar~"
The Little Tyrant carried the sledgehammer and strode forward with big steps.
Naturally, they went out countless times faster than earlier. Without digging through the path, they walked out in almost ten minutes. Because they did not want to continue exploring, the Little Tyrant directly blasted out an exit, and the two humans got out with their pets.
It was almost 5 p.m., and the sun had completely set to the west, dyeing the skies a fiery red hue.
A slight breeze swept across their faces, which got rid of the suffocating feeling of having stayed beneath the ground for too long.
"Ah, it's a beautiful sunset!" exclaimed Su Bai.
"Yes, it's better to be on the surface. Let's go back," Chen Ruoxue said with a smile.
"Ah, they are beautiful rookies, but I'm afraid that they won't be able to go back. Hand over the treasures on your body, you two. Kill the boy and capture the girl alive."
An arrogant voice came from a distance, and all of a sudden, four figures surrounded and suppressed them from four directions.
The speaker was a thin, middle-aged man with a cigarette in his mouth. Next to him was a Blood Wolf with a horn and blood-colored hair. It was two meters tall and exuded a mid-level warlord aura.
The other three were also uncles.
A total of four warlord pets surrounded Su Bai. A Blood Wolf, a Fire Ox, a Blood-tailed Sand Scorpion, and an Aqua Enchantress. All were mid-level warlords except for the Aqua Enchantress, which was below that rank.
"I'll give you a chance to give up resisting. Just give us your female companion and treasures, and we'll spare your life."
The tall and thin middle-aged man puffed out a ring of smoke, speaking coldly as he eyed Chen Rouxue.
"No, I think you might regret it." A sneer appeared on Su Bai's lips.
In the next moment, a domain of thorns with a thirty-meter diameter almost instantly enveloped everyone. Vines, as thick as basketballs, instantly entangled the opponents with their pets.
For a moment, all four looked horrified but quickly broke free from the vines and retreated under their pets' protection.
However, how could the couple let these four do as they wished? A flash of light and Purple Jade activated its Wood Spirit Replacement. Instantly, it appeared in front of the Aqua Enchantress's Pet Tamer and struck with its Crush Claw amid the terrified gaze of its target.
With a puff, a series of dark green energy bombs hit the Aqua Enchantress's body continuously. Terrifying energy erosion and paralysis then set in, which completely depleted the enemy pet's vitality.
Meanwhile, the moment Su Bai took his shot, Big Demon hit the Fire Ox and then the Blood-tailed Sand Scorpion. While they were still bound by the vines, it fired two ghostly curses at them as it controlled their shadows to entangle with themselves.
Next, it transformed into a black shadow and disappeared. When it reappeared behind the Blood Wolf which had escaped from the Thorns Domain with its owner, Big Demon was in the form of a scary apparition.
"Blood Wolf, be careful! Use Electric Shock!"
At the critical moment, the skinny middle-aged man hurriedly yelled. The Blood Wolf suddenly turned its head and shot blood-colored electric lights from its horn toward Big Demon.
Alas, with a popping sound, the Blood Wolf looked down to see that a black ghost claw had somehow inserted itself in its body.
"Impossible!"
The middle-aged man was horrified. His pet clearly hit the opponent, so how did it get killed, instead?
However, no one answered him, and what greeted him was only a black ghost claw. It was too late for the other two high-level servants he temporarily released to protect him, and his heart was immediately crushed.
Even with two high-level servants, he could not escape from the Ghost Claw's wrath.
"Roar!"
The Little Tyrant fearlessly charged forward after the Fire Ox was bound by shadows and the cub's vines. It jumped high and unleashed Lava Purgatory, causing pseudo-purgatory to descend upon the world. Three pale blighted fireballs condensed in its two claws almost at the same time as its skill fell, smashing directly onto the Fire Ox.
A pale, white fireball with over ten meters width directly exploded, and the flames seemed to ignite the void and the earth. The vines of Purple Jade were half burned, while the Little Tyrant disappeared with the Fire Ox's owner.
The conflagration quickly dissipated, and a terrifying existence could be seen opening its mouth and swallowing all the surrounding flames into its stomach.
This was naturally the Little Tyrant, restrained by vines and shadows. Having evolved into a Tyrant, the eruption when it unleashed its Lava Purgatory was extremely terrifying.
In an instant, the four who had just besieged Su Bai disappeared, leaving only the Blood-tailed Sand Scorpion and its Pet Tamer.
However, the middle-aged man was about to crumble in fright, and the horror in his eyes made him unable to speak. He had never imagined such a situation before.
Seeing Su Bai turn his head to look at him, he directly abandoned the Blood-tailed Sand Scorpion and flew away on a Two-headed Eagle.
However, it was still doomsday for him. Ten bullets of dark green Energy Burst, three blighted fireballs, and a huge ghostly energy ball pursued him at once. All these attacks exploded in the sky, turning into fireworks.
As their master died, the blood pets, Blood-tailed Sand Scorpion and Gray Wolf, turned into a cloud of blood which flew toward the cub and Big Demon. Su Bai, who had already prepared for this, took out the sealing balls he had specially bought and sealed the two spheres of blood inside.
"Even if we don't kill them, someone else will, so it's best not to feel burdened by it." Su Bai looked at Chen Rouxue, worried that she would feel out of benevolence, but she was more decisive and stronger than he thought.
"I'm fine, let's clean up the battlefield quickly and leave. Such large spiritual fluctuations might be felt by people nearby." Chen Ruoxue shook her head. She was not a delicate girl but rather a strong person who strove to grow. Hence, she had already mentally prepared herself for such things.
The corpses of the person who died in the sky and the two who were killed by the Little Tyrant were gone, so only two warlord pet crystal nuclei were dug out. Nothing much was found from the Pet Tamers of the Aqua Enchantress and the Blood Wolf, only some decoy medicinal cakes and spiritual plants. The total amount was about a million even after adding the pet crystal nuclei.
This was relatively poor for the warlord Pet Tamers, but few who entered the Scarlet Wilderness were rich.
"Little Tyrant, destroy the corpses and let's depart from here."
Su Bai instructed, making sure not to touch the two's contract books. No good Pet Tamer skills were inside, and he did not want them to pollute his contract book.
"Roar!"
Two fireballs ignited in the Little Tyrant's claws and it threw them backward. A raging flame consumed the two people and their three pets.
The people who came after hearing the noise only saw the corpses' charred bones. After discovering that this was actually the four bosses of the infamous Blood Wolf gang near the Thousand Chance City's ruins, they were shocked for a while. They never expected someone to kill all four of them within a few minutes.
"Who did this? Judging from the scene, their opponent was really fierce and decisive, killing two of them almost instantly."
Someone looked at this battlefield in shock.
"How many people did this? There are many kinds of spiritual powers, and some traces of domain proliferation."
Many people who were in disbelief ran over to the battle scene. The more they looked at it, the more they felt that the people who killed the Blood Wolf gang were not ordinary at all.
As news spread, the criminals who liked playing sneak attacks started to be on edge.
