Chapter 595: Chapter 275: Everything is Ready! Journey to Beiyuan!_2
Little Flame was just one aspect. During this period, what was undoubtedly most important was the preparation for the External Incarnation.
However, while the abundance of resources was one aspect, Su Ping also had one final condition and preparatory work to complete.
Thinking of this… After hanging up the phone, Su Ping, still not at ease, made another call to Dong Muyun:
“Hello, how is the matter we discussed last time progressing?”
Dong Muyun’s voice came through the phone:
“The Dong Family has agreed, and the Mirror Ancestor has also consented. Whenever you say the word, the old man will bring the Mirror Ancestor to you.”
“That’s good. If I’m out of town, I’ll try to notify your family in advance. If I’m around the Heart of Woods area, it should be easier to arrange.”
Su Ping took a slight breath of relief, then added, “I appreciate this, and for having you speak to the Dong Family on my behalf once more.”
Yes, to cultivate an External Incarnation, the last condition needed was indeed one conjectured by breeders on the worldwide Breeder’s forum regarding the cultivation of Clone Skill Technique: it required illumination by the projection of the Mirror of Reflecting Heavens, a Spirit Saint Level Pet Beast.
But from the Breeder Association, Su Ping had not heard of anyone possessing such a high-level Pet Beast.
Even if there were some unconfirmed rumors, Su Ping did not have the influence to casually solicit such a favor from others.
Unexpectedly, what seemed an insurmountable difficulty for Su Ping was easily resolved by Dong Muyun.
Indeed, the Dong Family, renowned as the lineage of the Mirror Saint, possessed a Spirit Saint Level Mirror of Reflecting Heavens. It was considered their ultimate reserve, one of the major supports that had allowed the family to preserve their status amid such turbulent times.
Regarding Su Ping’s gratitude, Dong Muyun was clearly dismissive:
“I’m just conveying a message. The old man is keen to get to know you, and now that you’ve made the request, they are eager to agree. Otherwise, would they agree without any conditions? Although it’s merely asking the Mirror Ancestor for a simple favor, it’s in that old fellow’s nature to try and gain extra benefits from any opportunity. How could he not have any demands?”
From Dong Muyun’s tone, it was evident that she was dissatisfied with some of the Dong Family’s practices.
Su Ping, however, was indifferent; the legacy and operations of a vast family were naturally different. Of course, understanding did not equate to approval. Besides, given his previous dealings concerning Dong Muyun, Su Ping did not hold much fondness for the Dong Family.
Therefore, it was better to attribute this favor to Dong Muyun:
“Regardless, I still need to thank you! Otherwise, things might not have gone so smoothly.”
“TSK TSK, only verbal thanks? How about offering yourself in return?” Dong Muyun’s mocking voice came from the other end of the phone.
Su Ping pondered briefly. “Are you sure?”
Dong Muyun was taken aback. Did this kid actually take me seriously?
“Of course I’m sure, I’m just afraid someone would disagree!”
After pausing, Su Ping continued, “I should tell you, Su Anyong once consulted a Time Series Beast Tamer to tell our family’s fortune. He said we are of the ’Nine Yang Fate,’ which is quite overpowering toward spouses. Look at our family…”
“Get lost!”
The more Dong Muyun listened to this guy ramble on, the more irritated she became. She cursed outright, having assumed he might have changed, only to find he was still the same.
“By the way, what skill are you asking the Mirror Ancestor to help cultivate? What kind of skill requires the Mirror Ancestor’s assistance?” Dong Muyun somewhat brusquely changed the topic.
“You’ll know when the time comes. It’s a secret for now, and I’m not even slightly sure whether the cultivation will be successful.”
Naturally, Su Ping did not wish to divulge too much about the External Incarnation—it was quite sensational.
The Heart of the Sun was considered an accumulation of many years by the Heart of Woods. His Five Elements Body was a fortunate happenstance, resulting from encountering the Five Elements diagrams left by Xue Hongluan, along with assistance from Zhu Hong and Liu Fuhai. However, perfecting an External Incarnation in such a short period without any prior indication would undoubtedly draw excessive attention.
If word got out, this would be a significant event, attracting the attention of the worldwide community of Breeders. For an unknown individual from Dragon Nation to complete such a cultivation would instantly thrust Su Ping into a tumultuous spotlight.
Su Ping felt he could hardly withstand it. Although concealing such matters was not entirely feasible, he hoped to delay it for as long as possible.
Fortunately, Dong Muyun did not press further. After some more idle conversation, Su Ping mentioned he would be traveling to Beiyuan the next day, then he hung up the phone.
After purchasing a ticket to Beiyuan for the next day, Su Ping finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He did not bring anyone else with him. Instead, he rode out of the Heart of Woods on a bicycle he used for regular training and circled within the territory of the Heart of Myriad Spirits.
Just two days prior, after absorbing some of the Secret Realms that had appeared in Jianghai and engaging in ’meditation’ in the Heart of Dreams, Su Ping’s Realm had advanced to the Third Rank of Commander.
Still, physical training for a Beast Tamer was also important.
Even more significantly, over these past days, Su Ping had come to understand some aspects of the Myriad Spirit Beast Atlas after reaching LV4.
He had also attempted to use the ’experience infusion’ effect.
There had been no significant change in Xiao Qing’s Level, mainly because it had reached the Commander Level. Moreover, perhaps due to some mutation, Su Ping’s previous attempt had resulted in no Level increase. This was evidently due to insufficient experience, which also caused a cooldown, making it impossible to judge how much experience was needed to enhance Xiao Qing’s Level.
