Astral Pet Store

/p>

Su Ping heard the system’s alert as the ray of twilight shone and entered his store.

The store had been successfully upgraded! The wild beasts didn’t arrive during the past 24 hours.
Su Ping’s mind was set at ease the moment he heard the system’s sound.

Never had he found the system’s sound as pleasant!

“Hmm, the system’s voice is always pleasant! You should develop a better taste,” the system said to Su Ping.

Again, with the peeking!

Su Ping didn’t argue with the system since he was in a great mood.
“Show me your shop.”

He wanted to upgrade the store.
For one thing, he had wanted to increase the store’s territory; for another, he hoped he could get some rare tools from a level 4 shop.

He would be able to easily capture Fate State beasts if he could get a hold of special grade beast-catching rings! A virtual shop popped out in front of Su Ping’s eyes.

He was the only one who could see the virtual image; he didn’t know if he was seeing it in front of his eyes or with his mind’s eye.

Anyway.
He saw three items.
The first was a dark purple crystal, the Purple Dragon Crystal!

It was a perfect item for dragons, which would bolster their blood.
There would be a greater chance for them to learn the Purple-blood Dragon’s skills.
Purple-blood Dragons… They had the potential to reach the Star Rank!

Price: 12 million energy points.

Su Ping ticked his tongue upon seeing the price.
One Dragon Crystal was equal to four Void State battle pets!

Too expensive!

Su Ping looked at the second item; his eyes glowed.

Special-grade beast-catching ring:

The probability of catching Ocean State beasts was 100%! The probability of catching Void State beasts was 100%!

The probability of catching Fate State beasts was 80%!

The probability of catching Star Rank beasts was 10%!

A 10% chance of catching a Star Rank creature!

The probability of catching Fate State beasts was 80%! He could catch one if his luck wasn’t too bad!

Su Ping was happy.
He looked at the price… Eight million energy points! This greedy system! He immediately bought one, regardless of being unhappy about the staggering prices.
Using the special beast-catching ring on Fate State beasts would be wasteful.
The artifact’s true value was the chance to capture a Star Rank beast.

“Hmm!” the system snorted arrogantly.

Su Ping curled his lips.
He could not nurture the system’s pride; otherwise, it would keep increasing the prices.

“That’ll work,” the system said.

What? Were you listening again?

Su Ping then checked the third item.

Thunder Ocean Fruit:

It grows at the bottom of a thunder ocean located in the Realm of Thunder.
The fruit uses thunder energy as nourishment and naturally contains rules of thunder.
Any creature that takes this fruit has a probability to learn a certain rule of thunder!

Su Ping could hardly believe that.
This fruit would allow someone to learn a rule?

Well, it did say “a probability” and that was a vague statement, but the chance was there!

It was a valuable item!

Even Star Rank beings would fight for it!

After all, if more rules were mastered, more power could be wielded!

Su Ping looked at the price, then felt as though he had been doused with cold water.

The price: 86 million energy points.

That… was close to what he had spent on upgrading the store!

He had less than seventy million energy points remaining; it was beyond his means… The shop will refresh in one week.
I have to make enough money within the week.
If I miss it this time, I will miss it forever.
Only three items will come up with each refresh.
That is too few.
Though I have to admit that those items are quite good… Su Ping complained inside.

“Hmm.” The system added his opinion on the matter.

Su Ping looked at the first item.
The Purple-blood Dragon Crystal was expensive, but it was useful for his Inferno Dragon.

He made up his mind and bought it; he had less than fifty million energy points left.

The good thing was that he still had a week to make some extra money.
He closed the shop and summoned the Inferno Dragon.
He then took out the crystal from his storage space.
Su Ping found it quite unusual; it was quite warm to the touch.
Even he felt that he was about to learn something.

“Purple-blood Dragon Crystal?” Joanna cried out in surprise.
She could not believe that Su Ping would ever get a hold of such a rare item.

“You know this?” Su Ping asked while he threw the crystal to the Inferno Dragon.

Joanna curled her lips after seeing him toss the crystal so casually.
She explained, “The Purple-blood Dragon Crystal is formed with the blood and energy of a Purple-blood Dragon upon death.
It can only be preserved in special conditions… If an average dragon were to take this, its bloodline would improve, even inheriting part of the Purple-blood Dragon’s bloodline.
The dragon could even reach the Star Rank because of this!”

Su Ping nodded; he admired Joanna’s resourcefulness.

Roar!

The Inferno Dragon bellowed after having eaten the crystal; its scales were glistening with a purple glow.
Bolts of lightning came crashing down near the Inferno Dragon.

There were red flames amid the bolts of lightning The Inferno Dragon’s bones were cracking; it was changing drastically.

Su Ping noticed that the Inferno Dragon was growing, breaking through from the intermediate position of the ninth rank to the peak of the ninth rank.
One more step and the dragon would become a beast king!

The dragon stopped growing; however, its energy was much denser than before.
Su Ping even had a feeling that he was standing in front of a Fate State dragon.
The effect of the Purple-blood Dragon Crystal was even more beneficial than he would have imagined.

He looked at the pet; its combat strength had grown to 38 from 26!

The Inferno Dragon was second only to the Little Skeleton! Still, its combat strength was still below the Fate State.
According to the system, the combat strength of the Fate State was from 50 to 100!

Even so, the growth in combat strength was astonishing, and the crystal had yet to be fully digested.
There was still room for growth.

The 12 million energy points had been well spent.
Su Ping was quite happy; he went to the pet room, which was three times larger than before! He saw a mark that said “Upgrade” on the nursing pens.

He currently had middle-level nursing pens; a hundred thousand energy points were required to upgrade them to the advanced level!

Su Ping curled his lips; he had spent too much on the upgrade.

Still, he would have to upgrade the nursing pens sooner or later.
Upon further thought, he decided to upgrade five of the nursing pens.

Minus fifty thousand energy points.

Su Ping told the Inferno Dragon to enter one of the nursing pens.

The animal teeth around the new nursing pens had changed.
Some peculiar grains were found on the teeth.

Those new nursing pens had a 1% chance of inspiring a pet’s talent!

That was the benefit of the upgrade.
The probability was just 1% but it was good enough.
Sooner or later, pets would attain new talents if they stayed there long enough.
“Look at that formation…” Joanna stared at the change on the animal teeth.
Much to her surprise, she was unable to recognize the array; she knew it was indeed a formation, but it may well be a long-lost one.
