Starting With Contract Pets Chapter 153 - Sleeping Dragon Abyss

Chapter 153 - Sleeping Dragon Abyss

This auction list only gave specific information about a part of the auction items and did not introduce many of those in the second half.

However, these auction items alone were enough to make people's blood boil with excitement, for they included the dragon egg of the dark attribute Shadow Hunting Wyvern, the egg of an emperor Prison Giant Spirit, the Fruit of Profundity, which could directly let a pet understand the profound meaning, the legendary Flower Fairy Queen, and so on.

Each item was incredibly popular and tempted many to bring them home.

However, the starting prices of these auction items was also terribly high, and the lowest starting price was 10,000,000 yuan.

Instead of money, blood crystals or spirit crystals were collected. One blood crystal was worth 10,000 yuan, while one spirit crystal was worth 1,000 yuan.

If it was a blood soulstone, it was worth 100,000 yuan.

Blood crystals were unique mineral veins of the Scarlet Wilderness, while blood soulstones were high-level energy crystals, which could only be born at the center of these mineral veins.

Of course, a human soulstone was also a kind of blood soulstone after special treatment and was even more expensive than an ordinary blood soulstone.

This was also why many desperadoes had abducted those teenagers, who were about to reach sixteen years of age. Those teens did not have the ability to resist, so not only had they been forcibly deprived of their soulstones, they had also been sold off for profit.

In the past, a group of people near Cannes had done such a serious crime, but under the attack of Gao An and the pet management bureau, some had been arrested, while others were scared off.

However, although the auction only accepted spirit crystals and blood crystals, those who wanted to auction could exchange them with treasures.

"It's not a problem to partic.i.p.ate, but we have no money or treasures. Although we obtained a few spiritual plants on the way here, they're only worth a few million yuan. We can at most partic.i.p.ate in secondary auctions.

"This auction starts on New Year's Day. If we want to partic.i.p.ate, we must save enough money in half a month."

Su Bai actually valued this auction because of the numerous items, which could definitely help him improve his pets.

They must have a value of at least 100,000,000 yuan if they wanted to enter the main venue of the auction, but they could only partic.i.p.ate in some other secondary auctions.

"Then let's give it a try. There is still a chance of earning enough in half a month's time. If it doesn't work, we'll just go for some secondary auctions. The final few treasures of the secondary auctions are also pretty good." Chen Ruoxue thought about it and suggested this.

He nodded. "Then let's go to the Scarlet Union to check the specific news before deciding on where to go, but before that, let's go pick up some leftovers. During this time, everyone is busy making money, so there should be some good things."

Su Bai had come to the Scarlet Wilderness this time with goals in mind. First, cultivate all his pets to the commander grade. Second, use his golden finger to infuse some light b.a.l.l.s into his pets so that their strength would increase by a great extent. Third, help Chen Ruoxue find a decent pet. If possible, he would find one for his younger brother, too.

Everything else, such as looking for good skills, was a sidetask that he would go with the flow mainly because they did not have time to do so many things.

It was mid-December; even if they did not go home during the New Year, they could only stay until March.

In March, they must partic.i.p.ate in the provincial tournament and then at the city tournament.

Both were very important compet.i.tions. Only by ranking in them could they partic.i.p.ate in the Spirit Alliance's golden league, which was the highest level of compet.i.tion.

Walking on the streets, it was more crowded and harder to squeeze past people than usual. Hawkers and peddlers could be heard shouting to patronize goods, and people, who were shoulder to shoulder as they went about their businesses, made it seem that they were in a vegetable market in the morning.

After walking on the streets for a while, Su Bai was quite surprised that no leftover treasures could be found. The total amount he picked up was only 700,000 to 800,000 yuan.

With this little money, he could barely afford to buy an energy medicinal cake for the cub.

"It seems that there are a lot of big bosses in this Bloodthirsty Vine Bazaar. We can abandon all hopes of getting leftovers; let's find a more honest way of making money by going to the Scarlet Hunter Trade Union."

He shook his head helplessly.

"It's okay; let's take it slowly. Don't worry." Chen Ruoxue nodded.

There were too many people inside the Scarlet Hunter Trade Union, and they were all here to desperately make money for the upcoming auction event.

Su Bai did not want to take on those tasks but wanted to find a volcano with the Purgatory Fire. The Little Tyrant's evolution required Purgatory Fire.

However, he was quite annoyed because there were almost no volcanoes in the Scarlet Wilderness, and the only one was at the bottom of the Blood Beach.

The Blood Beach was the only emperor relic in the Scarlet Wilderness. As Pet Tamers below the monarch grade, it was a place of no return.

Furthermore, this volcanic group was at the deepest part of the Blood Beach, which even summoners with emperors did not dare to go at will.

"How about we go to the Sleeping Dragon Abyss? It's a monarch relic and is rumored to be the tomb of a Sleeping Dragon at the peak emperor grade.

"The Dream Flower, Dream Come True Fruit, Ghost Dragon Soul Fruit, and Devil Fruit are all produced there, which all happen to be fantasy- and ghost-attribute treasures. That place is also rumored to have some dragon and earth materials, which we need as well. Do you want to give it a try?"

Chen Ruoxue showed him information about the Sleeping Dragon Abyss.

It was a three-headed dragon with three attributes: dark, dragon, and spirit. Thus, it had left an abundance of materials where it died.

"Yes, but we'd better have Night Vision skills to go to that kind of place. There are many darkness creatures there, and they'll attack wildly when they see light."

Night Vision was also a basic summoner skill, which could enable them to see the surrounding environment clearly even in complete darkness.

"May I ask if you are going to the Sleeping Dragon Abyss, too? Do you want to team up with us? We often go to that place and know it well.

"We still have extra Night Vision skills at hand. If you are willing to team up with us, we can sell them to you at a low price of two million" At this time, a young man came over and inquired with a smile. They had obviously seen the information in his hand.

Su Bai turned his head and looked at the three people on the side. Other than this young man, there was a young woman and a middle-aged man with a beard. This formed what seemed like a mismatched combination.

"What are your levels as Pet Tamers? You should know the rules if you want to form a team." he asked, eyeing the group.

"Don't worry; we are not bad guys, nor do we harbor any ill intentions."

The young man brought him to a corner after speaking. After propping up a s.h.i.+eld, he released his contract book to reveal a messy silver three-star contract book.

The others also revealed their contract books, which were all silver stars, but exuded particularly messy auras. This was the characteristic of contract books that had swallowed others.

However, this was very common in the Scarlet Wilderness. Most people were desperadoes who had swallowed others' contracts.

"Okay, let's form a team."

Su Bai also nodded. He summoned his contract book and revealed his silver three-star book.

Chen Ruoxue also revealed her contract book.

Revealing a contract book was to let the other party roughly determine one's level.

Pets were the most fundamental secret of every Pet Tamer, so it was impossible to show them to others. Revealing the contract book was a better choice.

A silver three-star contract book meant that no matter how powerful a Pet Tamer was, his pets would not exceed the commander level.

Due to the iron law that had been formed since the appearance of the contract book, the highest level of pets could only be a level higher than the contract book.

"Your contract books are so clean and pure." The young woman chuckled.

"Yes, we are relatively weak, so we have no chance but to swallow other people's contract books."

Su Bai shrugged.

"Here are two Night Vision skill cards. Give us four million yuan and they are yours.

"We'll proceed to the Sleeping Dragon Abyss right after you set up the Night Vision skill. That place may be more dangerous compared to other monarch ruins, but we have five people in total and are also familiar with the environment, so the degree of danger should be relatively small.

"Whoever finds a treasure is the owner; don't fight over it." The young man took out two summoner skills as he spoke.

"Okay, no problem." Su Bai nodded and looked at Chen Ruoxue.

The girl nodded in agreement before taking out four million worth of crystal nuclei and throwing them to the young man.

After obtaining the two Night Vision skill cards, Su Bai did not choose to use them immediately. It was not suitable to do so in front of so many people, and they had only shown their contract books after placing a s.h.i.+eld on them.

Once they left the Scarlet Hunter Trade Union, the young man released a mid-level warlord, the Singing Crane, and smiled. "Let's go; sit on my Singing Crane to the Sleeping Dragon Abyss."

He led the way after speaking, followed by the young woman and the bearded man.

He did not hesitate and pulled Chen Ruoxue up.

The Singing Crane propped up a small s.h.i.+eld and spread its wings to fly to the sky. The middle-aged woman smiled and asked, "Are you a newly married couple? You look so loving."

"We have been married for many years." Su Bai shook his head.

He and Chen Ruoxue had changed their appearances to a twenty-seven- or twenty-eight-year-old pair. Their origin appearances of a young boy and girl were not suitable for mixing in the Scarlet Wilderness.

"Then it's even more amazing to remain affectionate even after many years of marriage. This shows that you are truly in love with each other. I really envy you." The middle-aged woman smiled.

"No, it's just that I can't defeat her, so I'm afraid of kneeling on the washboard as punishment." He shrugged.

His words made Chen Ruoxue laugh. "Come on; I've never told you to kneel on the washboard."

"Hahaha, you two are really interesting. It's rare to meet a true loving couple like you in this monster wilderness."

The middle-aged man with the beard also smiled.

"By the way, what are you looking for at the Sleeping Dragon Abyss?"

Su Bai changed the subject timely.

"We're not looking for anything specifically, just exploring and treasure hunting. We want anything of value.

"You don't have to worry about us robbing you; everything can be exchanged for equal value," said the young man.

They chatted for a while before stopping and quietly landing on the Sleeping Dragon Abyss.

Su Bai and Chen Ruoxue absorbed the Night Vision skill and transformed it into their own.

When it was getting dark, they landed on the place without facing any danger. Although they encountered some monster attacks on the road, these monsters were all easily killed by the three people.

However, the pets they released were only low-level commanders that were not very high in level.

From above, the Sleeping Dragon Abyss looked like a hole in the ground, nothing special.

In fact, there was nothing special, but because a Sleeping Dragon had died here, this had turned into a treasured place.

The young man landed the Singing Crane in a gorge.

"It is very dark all year round because of the concentration of dark energy in the canyon. When it is dark, we can't even see our fingers. Everyone turn on your Night Vision skill and stay close to one another. If there is a monster, we will kill it together."

The young man kept the Singing Crane and released a commander Six-toothed Dark Mammoth.

This mammoth had a layer of long black hair more than five meters in length, with three thick and long black ivory on each side of its huge trunk.

The young woman released a low-level commander, the Aqua Enchantress, while the bearded man released a Wild Sand.

"Howl!"

"Hehe!"

Su Bai and Chen Ruoxue released Purple Jade and Big Demon.

"Although you both don't trust us much, isn't it overboard to release two high-level warlords?

"We have to defeat monsters together; isn't this a disadvantage to you?"

The young man frowned upon seeing their pets.

The other two people had the same expression.

"Don't worry; they're not weaker than your pets. If you don't believe it, you can watch when we encounter a monster later," said Su Bai.

"Alright, we shall wait and see then."

The young man no longer objected upon hearing his explanation.

He led his Six-toothed Dark Mammoth ahead, entering a strange path to the bottom of the abyss.

As they got deeper and deeper into the valley, the monsters they encountered also got stronger.

"Look, a Dream Flower." Chen Ruoxue suddenly pointed to a gap in the cliff.

"Croak!"

As soon as she spoke, a crisp croak sounded, and then a series of dark energy b.a.l.l.s were launched her way.

"Hehehe!"

Big Demon let out sinister laughter. Its body then turned into a black shadow which disappeared.

Puff!

A black spear directly pierced the head of this black low-level commander, Poisonous Blood Toad, causing the brain plasma and blood to splatter together.

In the dark environment, Big Demon's combat ability was improved quite a bit.

"Hehe!"

It flew to its owner's side with its two small claws holding the Dream Flower and a crystal nucleus.

"Good job."

She put the things in the backpack and patted it on the head.

Her pet cried happily.

The three people saw the scene and were caught off guard. This Big Demon was so strong.

"Have we expelled your doubts?" asked Su Bai with a smile.

"Haha! Of course, you have. We only doubted you out of worry for everyone's safety." The young man chuckled.

"Since the two's strengths have been verified, let's quickly move forward." The bearded man nodded.
