《Start With Contracting Sprites》Chapter 163: That Place
Advertisement
Under the Flaming Feather Form, the Flaming Cloud Crow was extremely fast.
They could only see a flash of flames.
The Muscle Master Hound that landed on the ground let out a roar.
Unique skill: Roaring.
The difference was that the Master Hound's roar formed a visible sound wave that spread out in circles like water ripples.
Su Hao's eardrums buzzed from the explosion. He had no choice but to activate the protective screen and filter out part of the sound.
The Flaming Cloud Crow was almost unaffected.
Three flaming shadows flashed past.
There were two deep wounds on the Master Hound's body.
But one of the clones…
The Muscle Master Hound punched down, and broken feathers flew everywhere.
The Flaming Cloud Crow flew further away and created another feather clone, hovering in the air and waiting for an opportunity to move.
At this moment.
Li Songting said, "Differentiate the aura!"
A glimmer of light flashed across the eyes of the Master Hound, as if it had already seen through everything.
It stomped on the ground again, sending countless gravel flying. The whole hound flew towards the sky like a cannonball.
The Flaming Cloud Crow was prepared.
It had used its divine skill to dodge.
Its fist passed through the afterimage left behind by the Flaming Cloud Crow's high-speed movement, but suddenly…
"Empty Steps!"
The Master Hound's thick feet suddenly stepped on the air. The air under its feet was compressed into the ground. It borrowed the force of the air for re-entry. In an instant, it appeared in front of the Flaming Cloud Crow's real body and threw out a simple punch.
Bang!!!
His fist easily shattered the Flaming Feather Gown, countless light flames flew, and the sandbag-sized fist went straight in…
It pierced through its entire body and exploded into broken feathers that flew everywhere.
"Squawk…"
The Flaming Cloud Crow appeared more than ten meters away. Looking at the missing feathers on its body, it was a little angry.
It really flew high, and the two feather clones swooped down directly.
Boom!
The Master Hound smashed the feather clones, but the clone that maintained the pseudo-Fire Feather Form also bumped into the Master Hound.

Waves of air spread outwards, and flames splashed everywhere.
Ten seconds later, the dust and smoke dissipated.
In the huge pit in the center of the field, there was a charred Master Hound.
It had already returned to its normal size.
Li Songting lifted the Master Hound, which had lost its battle power, onto his shoulder and turned to look at Su Hao.
"Ah Hao, as expected of you!
"I lost today. It must be because I didn't cultivate hard enough. More training, more training. Let's go! I'll challenge you again!"
Li Songting carried the Master Hound and ran far away in a flash.
Reverie Butterfly looked at Su Hao, then looked at the silhouette of the hot-blooded freak leaving.
Suddenly, he felt that…
Dumb Su Hao was pretty nice to them after all.
"Old Liu, do you want to fight?"
Su Hao looked at Liu Ren. "Since we're already here, why don't we battle and save the cost of having to open a battlefield next time?"
Liu Ren's pancake face shook like waves.
"I think it's better to wait… Next time."
He thought about it and eventually summoned the Lava Tortoise. He asked, "Old Su, do you see any place where my tortoise can cheat?"
"Old Li's Master Hound is too abnormal. Is there any way to make the Lava Tortoise as sick as the Master Hound?"
"What do you think?"
Su Hao wasn't some cheat, he was just an ordinary Sprite Cultivator, how could he cheat?
But he was a cheater!
"That muscular form is indeed abnormal."
"It's much stronger than the Flaming Feather Form I developed."
"So strong?" Liu Ren opened his mouth.
"After all, it's Heavenly King Bu's unique secret manual. If it wasn't for the fact that it's especially compatible with Li Songting, anyone else might not have been able to learn it even in a year or two."
The victory of the Flaming Cloud Crow just now wasn't easy anymore.
The Flaming Cloud Crow was stronger than the Master Hound in terms of raw strength.
"But the Flaming Feather Form can barely be considered a secret manual. There's still a lot of room for improvement. I plan to develop a higher stage of the form."

Liu Ren: "???"
Su Hao coughed and looked at Liu Ren's Lava Tortoise. It was already elite-level.
"Sprites like the Lava Tortoise are already very strong if they are cultivated step by step."
"When it evolves into the Lava Dragon Turtle, its two-storey tall body, abundant spiritual force, and strong defense will hardly be a match for other elite-level ones."
He thought about it and said, "It's hard to learn secret manuals. If your Lava Tortoise were to learn secret manuals now, it might slow down its growth rate… You should first learn the high-level unique skill 'scorched earth', then desperately stack defense…"
"When your Lava Tortoise successfully evolves, it can also be ranked mid-level, mid-to-high-level among the new students."
Liu Ren nodded.
"Before the final exam, it must evolve successfully so that it can achieve good results during the assessment."
"That's a good opportunity to earn credits."
The two of them left.
Leaving behind a bumpy battlefield.
That didn't matter.
Whale Island University provided many battlefield areas made of ordinary materials. It was troublesome to repair, but that was done deliberately to prevent the battle venue from being too different from the environment outside.
Not long after Su Hao and the others left, a freshman from their cohort came with an earth-element sprite.
Those were the people who had received the mission of "repairing the field".
...
On Friday, Su Hao looked for Senior Wu to chat… Ah, no, ask questions, as usual.
He thought about it. "Although I don't have much credits and Dragon Nation currency, I still want to contract a new sprite."
Why did he go to university?
Of course it was for the sprites!
Before he went to university, Su Hao was very busy trying to contract a Water Unicorn Beast.
After he went to university, he could go to the public primordial areas in the country as he pleased, but he couldn't make up his mind.
"He went to the abandoned town in the school…"
Su Hao originally wanted to contract a ghost-element sprite, but after walking around, he didn't see any sprites. Instead, he had insomnia and dreams for a few days.
"Ghost-element, not fated."
"What I need most right now should be sprites that can only fight head-on."
When he saw Heavenly King Wu, he shared his confusion.
"There are many sprites that are good at frontal attacks."
Heavenly King Wu swept his gaze across his rather thick hair. "Do you have any requirements for attributes?"
Su Hao shook his head.
He still hadn't thought of the Heavenly King Domain yet.
But it wasn't very suitable to prioritize by attributes.
He simply let loose.
Heavenly King Wu thought about it and suddenly made a "Ding" sound. "There's really a very good place that can let you contract high-end second-generation, third-generation sprites… N-generation sprites."
"N… N-generation?"
"If a certain group of sprites have been passed down for hundreds of years, or even longer, and there are no external enemies, isn't it normal to give birth to many generations?"
He paused for a moment. "It's not that the more generations of sprites there are, the higher their potential will be. It still depends on the breeder. If you can contract the descendant of a monarch-level sprite, then there's no doubt…"
"Well, don't get your hopes up too high. This kind of descendant is as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns. Even if there really are, their previous generation will also raise extremely harsh conditions, or they might just not let you bring them away."
After all, it was very difficult for Heavenly Kings like them to even contract the descendants of a monarch sprite, much less young descendants.
Su Hao just wanted Heavenly King Wu to give him a suggestion.
For example, which primordial area to go to and which type of sprite to contract.
But Senior Wu seemed to have given him a huge piece of a pancake.
Instantly, his anticipation was bursting.
"Senior Wu, the place you're talking about is…?"
"There's still half a month before you can go to that place. You'll know when the time comes."
Su Hao was puzzled.
No, I want to know right now (crazy)!!

Of Men and Dragons, Book 2
Jack, S'haar, and all their family are back. After crashing his ship on an underdeveloped world, Jack found friends and family among the terrifying cat-lizard natives of the world, but now mere survival is no longer enough. They must carve out a new home for themselves in the landscape of the now rapidly changing world. Raiders, politics, and even nature threaten their happiness and their lives while they struggle to deal with the nightmares and traumas of yesterday. They'll need to depend on each other more than ever if they hope for their new home to have any kind of future. In case you missed it, here's book one. ATTENTION: This is soft sci-fi rather than hard sci-fi, hence why I chose that tag. For those of you unfamiliar with the distinction, here's what Wikipedia had to say. 1. It explores the "soft" sciences, and especially the social sciences (for example, anthropology, sociology, or psychology), rather than engineering or the "hard" sciences (for example, physics, astronomy, or chemistry). 2. It is not scientifically accurate or plausible; the opposite of hard science fiction. Soft science fiction of either type is often more concerned with character and speculative societies, rather than speculative science or engineering. The term first appeared in the late 1970s and is attributed to Australian literary scholar Peter Nicholls.

Primacy Online
Life on Earth was nearly eradicated in World War III, but using alien technology, the Patriarch of the Church of the Resurrection built a new society from the ashes. He created what he called the Constructed Reality MMORPG, Primacy Online, a world so real that the players could not distinguish it from reality. After outlawing wars between the city-states on Earth, he declared that all wars would be fought inside the world of Primacy Online. Thirteen hundred years later, the release of Primacy Online VI: Legacy of Balor signals the beginning of World War IX. Players from Earth's city-states will be locked in cryogenic capsules and play Primacy Online in War Mode. Their achievements in the game will determine the victory rankings of their city-states, but if they die in the game, they will die for real. Patrick Armagh found flaws in the game mechanics of Primacy Online and exploited them to rise to the peak of the game. But when the Church declared he was cheating, he was perma-banned from the game. Now, the Church has declared that Patrick and all the other perma-banned cheaters will be included in a special Church group for World War IX, where they can earn redemption for their sin of cheating. However, Morgan Danan, Speaker of the City of Mann, and the generally acknowledged number one player of Primacy Online, has a deal for Patrick. With her help and his method of cheating, he has the chance to become a virtual god within Primacy Online, but by taking up her offer, he will become an enemy of the Church. Like a significant percentage of Primacy Online players, Patrick suffers from an ultimately fatal, degenerative nervous system disorder. He has less than five years to live. With death staring him in the face and nothing to live for, he accepts Morgan Danan's offer, and once again, enters Primacy Online as Crom Cruach, a disgraced legend. Will Crom Cruach, once again, become a legend, or will he be destroyed by the Church? What secrets has the Church hidden inside the game?
