Chapter 887 - 378: Celestial Tomb Mark! Is It Really a Gift?
"Come home!"
"Come, this is your true home!"
"Heavenly Tomb... eternal sleep..."
"Eternity... immortality... myth... all will be realized here..."
"Come back..."
"Shut up!"
The persistent voices at his ears made Su Ping feel as if his soul would be drawn away.
He instinctively wanted to cover his ears.
Instinctively wanted to block out the voice, but it seemed to continuously ripple in his mind, making it impossible to completely cover it despite his efforts.
Heavenly Tomb,
seemed to have endless calls trying to pull Su Ping towards it, into its embrace.
Whoosh...
Su Ping suddenly opened his eyes.
The snow-white ceiling came into view, and the afternoon sunlight still pierced through the window, spilling onto the floor.
It appeared leisurely yet stiflingly hot.
However, he remembered being on the sofa before falling asleep, and now, he was on a very ordinary single bed.
This seemed to be inside an office.
Beside him, only Long’er stood calmly watching him, without any other figure around.
The figure seen before falling asleep felt like an illusion.
Su Ping blinked, momentarily feeling a bit dazed.
However, seemingly hearing the movement inside, soon, the sound of footsteps approached, none other than Old Qin and Ray Saint.
"Su Ping, how are you feeling? You’ve been asleep for about two hours."
Seeing the concerned expressions of the two, Su Ping felt slightly reassured, shook his head, and tentatively asked:
"What about him?"
Ray Saint then said:
"The Legendary Lord has left. He checked your condition, spiritually, mentally, and physically, all seems fine, but... some issues require him to consult some records.
He said, upon reaching Dragon City, you’ll have a more detailed examination. The conditions here aren’t sufficient for a complete check. Meanwhile, handle the situation outside upon waking.
Also, regarding this matter, he mentioned that the Eagle Country will pay a price and offer some explanation to you."
Su Ping nodded.
He could naturally guess the situation outside.
This time, the conference ended so oddly, there’s no need to explain the external speculation around the conference.
If Su Ping fails to appear before the public again, it might actually create a major stir, affecting the image of Dragon Nation as a whole.
Nevertheless, regarding this incident, Dragon Nation really got eclipsed by Eagle Country this time, probably losing face substantially.
Now, it’s up to that one to react.
To see what kind of price they can make the other side of the ocean pay.
Thinking of this, Su Ping nodded: "Don’t worry, I’ll rest for a bit. Also, Sister Long, why don’t you go out for now?"
Long’er gave him a peculiar look, but eventually nodded.
Soon, the room was left with only Su Ping.
Su Ping exhaled deeply and closed his eyes again.
Sure enough, as long as he closed his eyes, there seemed to be a raspy voice within his heart and ears.
This voice repeated the words from his slumber.
"Heavenly Tomb..."
Su Ping’s heart darkened.
He could sense, towards the north of Dragon Nation,
in the direction of Beiyuan Province, something beckoning him to advance, to enter.
He knew, that was the location of the Heavenly Tomb.
But what did Charles give him?
To have such a peculiar effect?
Celestial Tomb Mark? What is this thing?
This nightmarish call, made Su Ping feel like he could barely control himself!
Urging him to embrace the undead.
No!
Determination flashed in Su Ping’s eyes, no matter what, he could never become a monster like Charles, he was a Human Beastmaster!
Moreover, most importantly, he had never taken any oath in his life.
But he did say, he once swore, he would kill Charles with his own hands!
The problem is, this influence seemed to be irresistibly affecting his consciousness.
Su Ping’s current will could resist, but in the future?
The Heavenly Tomb?
He naturally cherishes his life.
If there’s anything uncertain, Su Ping rarely chooses to take risks.
After all, isn’t tending the fields at home more enjoyable? Researching Pet Beasts, developing the Heart of Myriad Spirits, nurturing strong Pet Beasts, upgrading the Myriad Spirit Beast Atlas, growing stronger naturally.
Leveling up to kill enemies and growing stronger amidst danger with small victories is satisfying, but invincible domination is preferable, isn’t it?
He wasn’t without that capability.
However, the current situation doesn’t seem to allow it.
At the very least, the situation of the Heavenly Tomb already proves that no matter what, whether life or death, he must go in and see.
Moreover, Charles’ words were clear earlier.
He indeed seems to have gotten something within the Heavenly Tomb, wanting to confront this guy in the future requires understanding his origins and abilities.
Of course, more importantly, he still has another card.
The one-time talent obtained from lighting up the Giant Dragon Catalog, Immortal Dragon Soul, enough to let Su Ping go all out once.
