Chapter 1259 The Skeleton’s Rise to the Ascendant State (2)

Su Ping would have to endure the wound all by himself in such a way!

Su Ping took a deep breath and made a decision. “Today, I will cancel all your contracts; I hope that you’ll live a good life.” He had engraved the vengeance plan on both the Inferno Dragon and the young Chaos Beast with Dao Patterns; it wouldn’t decay unless they purposefully erased it.

Whoosh!

Exactly at that moment—Mo Ri went after them again.

Su Ping and the young Chaos Beast had only communicated for a few seconds. Mo Ri, being a cautious man, had been keenly observing. He saw that something was changing inside the young man’s body and was unaware if it would work in his favor. Since the matter was unpredictable, he simply charged and launched his ultimate attack.

“Master!” the young Chaos Beast roared with shock and fury.

Su Ping watched Mo Ri charge at him. He took a deep breath; he was going to dispel the fusion and fight with the last bit of strength he had to buy more time for his pets—but then a white figure flashed before his eyes.

Bang!

A black saber aura surged and cut space apart, eclipsing the entire world.

Everything had been wrapped in darkness, just like the coming of night time.

The Little Skeleton, a bundle of white bones, had somehow broken free from the pet space and emerged in front of Su Ping. That terrifying saber aura belonged to this pet. Mo Ri sensed a little bit of danger and moved back quickly, instead of resisting it head-on. He looked at the undead creature in surprise. Just like Su Ping, it was a Star Lord!

However, that previous attack was definitely powerful enough to hurt a Celestial!

What kind of freakish man and pet duo are they?

Su Ping was just as shocked as Mo Ri. He never summoned the Little Skeleton, and he didn’t know how it broke free from the pet space, completely violating the pet contract. “Sorry. I left some of my bone powder in your body when I was attached to you; that’s why I can transfer myself out of the contract space.” said the Little Skeleton apologetically as it turned its head with cracking noises toward Su Ping. It didn’t seem used to talking.

It had always been the quietest one back at the store.

It would be either sleeping on a bed or on its feet.

It always listened quietly when others talked. Nobody knew whether it was sleeping or listening, especially not by looking at its empty eye sockets.

Su Ping was dazed for a moment, not having realized his pet had taken such measures.

“Why did you do that?”

“I was afraid that something would happen to you, so I did it without asking…” The Little Skeleton’s voice was still apologetic and sincere.

Su Ping said with wet eyes, “I don’t blame you; whatever you do, I would never blame you.”

“I know, I know…” The Little Skeleton raised its head and looked at Mo Ri who was determined to kill them. It spoke solemnly, “Master, I can buy you more time. You can unleash that lazy dog too; both of us can buy you more time. In any case, please survive!”

Su Ping realized its intent. He changed his expression and said furiously, “No, you must leave immediately; I will cancel your contract right now. From now on, you’re not my pets anymore!”

“Master!” the Inferno Dragon cried aloud.

The young Chaos Beast said with a pitiful voice, “Master, don’t!”

The Little Skeleton, the most obedient thus far, was silent at the moment.

Black devilish auras surged out of its body and contaminated the space. Such a cover made the pet look like a skeleton king that had just stepped out of hell.

“Master…”

The Little Skeleton’s voice was still hoarse, but its every word pierced Su Ping’s heart. “You might not know this, but the time and memories with you are much more important to us than our own lives!”

Su Ping’s blood seemed to have solidified; his body shivered beyond control. He asked with an unsteady voice, “Why? I’ve always trained you so hard…”

“But you’re always the first to heal us when we’re wounded,” roared the Inferno Dragon, laden by grief.

“That’s right. You always left the best food for me,” said the young Chaos Beast, teary eyed.

The Little Skeleton said in a low voice, “You turned me from an ordinary skeleton into what I am today. You gave me consciousness and feelings, letting me see this world. You gave me a chance to see flowers and grass…”

“Focus!” A voice interrupted the Little Skeleton, and Mo Ri dashed toward them. His Nether Saber slashed down with multiple Dao Patterns.

Time and space were torn apart. A dazzling red glittered in the sky above the City of Sins.

The red light was as bright as the sun; countless people felt that their eyes stung when they saw it.

The Little Skeleton, however, quickly stepped out. All of its bones cracked as it suddenly expanded, becoming almost eight meters tall when it used to barely reach Su Ping’s waist in the beginning. Its previously slim bones became thick and scary; sharp stings grew out of its ribs and blade bones!

It was as horrifying as the King of the Undead!

Bang!

The Little Skeleton drew the bone saber on its waist and attacked fiercely, unleashing a scorching brilliance. Seven small worlds were gathered on the edge. Three of the seven small worlds collapsed after a single strike!

However, the Little Skeleton didn’t back off. It stood in front of Su Ping like an iron wall, preventing him from being hurt; he didn’t even feel any wind.

“Master, I will rise to the Ascendant State for you today. Please go!” The Little Skeleton’s voice became hoarse and dry, as if coming from the abyss, quite different from the innocent, kidlike voice of the past. He couldn’t have been more intimidating at the moment, and all to protect Su Ping.

Intense and ancient devilish auras were mixed with some sort of power and emitted by its body.

In the meantime-dark clouds appeared in the sky above the City of Sins and gathered from somewhere in the void.

A bloodcurdling aura filled up the world.

Su Ping was dazed, not expecting that the Little Skeleton would choose to rise to the Ascendant State right then.

He remembered that his bony pet had found dozens of routes to the Ascendant State in the cultivation sites, and a couple of them were quite powerful. However, the Little Skeleton abandoned them all, thinking that a better one could be found.

It was obvious that time was of the essence. It planned to choose one of the found routes and rise to the Ascendant State.

In Su Ping’s perspective, the Little Skeleton had chosen to abandon its future.

Boom!

Terrifying thunder was rumbling. The Little Skeleton was immediately enshrouded in the realm of the Heavenly Tribulation.

Mo Ri changed his expression in shock. His eyes didn’t deceive him; the pet was truly just a Star Lord!

It’s rising to the Ascendant State at this moment? “Damn it, what kind of bone is that? Why is it so hard?”

Mo Ri looked at his Nether Saber. The spirit inside the saber sent him a shivering feeling when it clashed with the Little Skeleton’s weapon, as if scared!

The weapon of a universe dominator is scared of a bone?

Exactly at that moment-a roar echoed as Ye Chen dashed closer. “What are you waiting for? Kill them all and disrupt the Heavenly Tribulation!” He charged at the Little Skeleton which was about to take go through the tribulation

Mo Ri frowned in silence. He also charged at full speed, unwilling to watch that strong skeleton rise to the Ascendant State. It was already powerful beyond belief while still a Star Lord. What would happen when it rose to the Ascendant State?

Su Ping was compelled to look back when he heard Ye Chen’s orders, only to see that Song Yuan and the others were scattered in the void. Their enormous pets were next to them, but the creatures were either mutilated or sliced into pieces. There was a river of blood.

“Senior brothers and sisters…”

Su Ping felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave; his blood froze.

Bang!

Ye Chen and Mo Ri attacked at the same time; one of them charged at the Little Skeleton, while the other aimed for Su Ping.
