Chapter 596 The Corridor

The area was in the deepest part of a valley.

A snow-covered mountain range stretched towards the horizon. Marks left behind from previous battles were visible everywhere. The snow was covering some of the corpses, leaving some remains exposed.

The smell of blood would forever linger in the area.

Su Ping noticed that something was off as soon as they arrived.

Everything looked normal but there were hidden cracks in the void that could suck careless souls in.

“Brother Su, pay close attention here. We fight a lot in this area and the space is not going to hold up for long. Consider this place as an invisible swamp that can suck you in at any time,” Li Yuanfeng cautioned Su Ping.

Su Ping nodded. “Swamp” was a suitable analogy for that area. It was indeed a void swamp.

He could not see the traps but he could fall in one of them if he was careless. He would end up in a space and dimension completely different from reality and the space storms in that dimension could even injure those at the Void State.

One would have to be extra careful when trying to teleport.

Turbulences were frequent where space had been disturbed.

“That is the way to the Corridor.”

Li Yuanfeng pointed to a direction.

A swirl was spinning; it was hole that could suck everything in.

Just looking at the swirl had given Su Ping pressure.

Behind the swirl was the Corridor where beasts gathered. Neither could say for sure what they would run into once they got past the swirl.

“Take care,” Ye Wuxiu said to Li Yuanfeng and Su Ping

Li Yuanfeng nodded. He had quit grinning cheekily like he always did. He summoned a Void State beast king. The battle pet’s bloodline had some dragon heritage mixed in. The pet merged with Li Yuanfeng as soon as it came out.

Li Yuanfeng quickly turned into a strong-built dragon man.

He grew dragon scales and his fingers turned into claws; he even had a tail. The merger made him feel like a volcano that could erupt at any time.

His alertness was a warning for Su Ping. He summoned the Little Skeleton and the Dark Dragon Hound as well.

The Dark Dragon Hound immediately added six layers of legendary armor to Su Ping, making him seem like a moving fortress.

The others here were stunned by the Dark Dragon Hound. They could not tell exactly what the pet was, but those defensive skills were amazing. “Brother Su, you do have good partners,” Li Yuanfeng exclaimed.

The Little Skeleton had already left them a deep impression; that dragon hound turned out to be even more peculiar.

Su Ping told the Dark Dragon Hound to add those armors to Li Yuanfeng as well. He could not allow anything to happen to Li Yuanfeng, the good man who was willing to risk his life to make the journey. They were armed to the teeth. Li Yuanfeng was ready to step into the swirl.

“Take care.”

“See you soon!”

The others said their goodbyes. Li Yuanfeng waved to them and went into the swirl with Su Ping.

Su Ping was right behind Li Yuanfeng; he told the Little Skeleton and the Dark Dragon Hound to stay close.

Going through the swirl reminded him of his trips to the cultivation sites. He felt some distortion in space. He opened his eyes, only to be taken aback Countless pairs of bloody and fierce eyes fell on him.

A bunch of beasts were lurking on the other side of the swirl.

Their arrival had alerted them all.

Li Yuanfeng was not that surprised. “I knew those bastards would be here.”

“Wanna finish them quickly?” Su Ping asked.

“Yes, I do.” Li Yuanfeng nodded.

Su Ping launched strikes without reserve. He told the Little Skeleton to do its best to deal with those beasts.

It might sound hard to believe but all of them were beast kings. They were merely at the Ocean State but the total number reached dozens!

That many beast kings would shock the entire globe if they were found above ground!

All the base cities would tremble; it would mean complete disaster for any base city!

Whoosh!

The Little Skeleton withdrew the bone blade as soon as it got the order. Surrounded in darkness, it dashed around amid the beast kings.

Roar!

One of the beast kings was able to use a special skill to freeze the area around the Little Skeleton. Ice appeared out of thin air; the Little Skeleton was frozen on the spot and another beast king roared, shattering the frozen Little Skeleton.

Li Yuanfeng could not believe that the Little Skeleton had been shattered. At the end of the day, the Little Skeleton was dealing with dozens of vicious beasts that had been inside the Deep Caves for their entire lives; they were experienced after having fought many battles. No matter how good the skeleton was, it couldn’t have finished all those beast kings.

When Li Yuanfeng thought he would have to clear out the beast kings himself, all of a sudden, the shattered Little Skeleton broke free from the ice and then reassembled itself. Once regenerated, it flashed to where a beast king was and slashed its head right between the eyes!

One beast king had been slain!

Then the Little Skeleton went to attack another beast king. That beast king panicked and set up many shields and armors; there were other beast kings helping. The Little Skeleton’s movement was hindered and slowed down. However, the Little Skeleton was able to offset the effect with its Field of Darkness.

Apart from corroding creatures that came in touch with that special field, it could cancel the effect of some energy strikes, ice or fire for instance.

There was nothing that could stop the Little Skeleton. It made its second kill!

Two kills in a row had emboldened the Little Skeleton.

Now and then, the Little Skeleton would become the victim and fall into many pieces, but it would only take a second to reassemble. Nothing could ultimately kill the Little Skeleton. Li Yuanfeng was stunned speechless.

Even though he knew that pets of the undead family had regeneration skills, that was the first time that he had seen any skeleton coming back to life after becoming a pile of dust.

Talk about a tenacious vitality!

Su Ping stood by the swirl instead of joining the fight. He summoned the Inferno Dragon to help the Little Skeleton out and finish the fight as soon as possible.

He chose to let the Dark Dragon Hound stay with him.

He was bothered by the fact that the Dark Dragon Hound had developed nothing but defensive skills, but it turned out that it could make for a good bodyguard.

“The Little Skeleton’s strikes have no weaknesses, but I think there’s potential trouble when facing containment skills.” Su Ping watched as the Little Skeleton fought the beast kings with courage. The pet’s terrifying strikes were able to hurt beast kings and even the dragon beast kings would be wounded by that all-conquering bone blade.

Still, the Little Skeleton could be slowed down by defensive skills.

The Little Skeleton was able to regenerate as long as there’s energy.

But the downside for the Little Skeleton was that it could be contained after regenerating. That way, even though the Little Skeleton would still be alive, it would no longer be able to move freely.

Su Ping realized he had to train his Little Skeleton in that regard.

He had to make sure that the Little Skeleton had no weak spots.

“Brother Su, your battle pets are amazing!” Li Yuanfeng looked at the Little Skeleton and the Inferno Dragon, which were even more intimidating than the beast kings. He produced a forced smile and wondered where he had gotten his battle pets. None of them were beyond the Ocean State but they were killing those Ocean State beast kings as if chopping vegetables. It was unbelievable!

Instead of enjoying the show, Li Yuanfeng dashed over and joined the fight.

Roar!

Li Yuanfeng was like a walking dragon while merged with his dragon. He reached a beast king and tore its head right off with his claws.

His tail was also sharp. The tail penetrated a beast’s skull while he grabbed its head to make the kill with more ease.

Su Ping wanted to battle personally as well, after being spurred by Li Yuanfeng’s primitive way of fighting. But, he had to be on the lookout for potential hidden danger.

Roar! Roar!

The brawl lasted for a few minutes. The roars and noises gradually subsided. The Little Skeleton returned to the place where Su Ping stood, and so did Li Yuanfeng. He was covered in blood and panting. “Brother Su, let’s go. We don’t have time to harvest materials from those bastards.”

Su Ping nodded. He didn’t care about those materials to begin with.

He could have scavenged the beast kings in the cultivation sites if he wanted them.

Those materials would merely be used for weapons, or as part of some special food. But Su Ping had enough of those special foods already.

He didn’t know how to craft weapons.

So, harvesting the beast kings was meaningless for him.

He also didn’t think there was anyone on the Blue Planet who could use beast kings’ body parts to make weapons. The legendary battle pet warriors’ mighty weapons were usually found in Mysterious Realms or inside the spatial cracks, instead of being forced by some people.

Whoosh!

Su Ping took the Inferno Dragon that was covered in blood back to his contract space and hopped onto the Dark Dragon Hound and left with Li Yuanfeng.

The Dark Dragon Hound breathed out a stream of air that enveloped the two people. That was used to hide their smell and energy, so that no creature would be able to sense them.

Su Ping and Li Yuanfeng went into the depths of the Corridor.

It was a wide tunnel with some crooked places and a sense of destruction. Su Ping was sure he would be sucked into chaos if he touched those strange spots; even the Little Skeleton would die for good. Luckily, being sensible enough, Su Ping was able to avoid those dangerous spots and so was Li Yuanfeng who had a deep understanding of the spatial rules and mechanisms since he was at the Void State.

The Corridor was like a maze with many crossroads.

Su Ping and Li Yuanfeng traveled with care and they kept as quiet as possible. Even so, they would run into some beasts that were resting along the way.

They would always finish the beasts quickly and head off to the next place.
