Chapter 1001: Hatching Service Su Ping entered the room where the Chaos Spirit Pool for Incubation was located. There was a round egg left inside the pool which looked like a dried well at the moment. The egg shell was quite hideous and dirty at the moment. However, one could see dark lines and white lotus-shaped spots upon closer look. The egg of a Chaos Path Beast cannot hatch without absorbing the power of chaos. The Chaos Perception Dragon would have definitely hatched if I would have taken it to the Archean Divinity. However, maybe the dragon would have eaten the thing… He looked at the energy he had earned and took a deep breath. The only way he could think of to hatch the beast was for it to absorb the chaos aura the Chaos Spirit Pool leaked when it hatched other beasts. That would entail having to activate the Chaos Spirit Pool again and again. It’ll be worth it in any case, even if I have to spend all my energy on hatching the beast. The Chaos Path Beast was practically the best pet possible; hardly other pets could compare. According to the system’s pet encyclopedia, the beast had been formed in chaos and would attain a Heavenly Path State combat ability once it reached adulthood! Su Ping had yet to learn what the system meant by “Heavenly Path State”, but he could estimate that it was beyond the Celestial State. He originally had thought that the Celestial State was the top level. However, he learned on his trip to the Archean Divinity that there were at least two major levels above the Celestial State, which probably included the Heavenly Path State the system had mentioned! I wonder if the Heavenly Path State is what equates to Ancestral Gods. If so, then the beast would be truly awesome. Su Ping was really eager to find out. In any case, for a pet to reach the Celestial State would still be a horrifying result; after all, that was the top level in the Federation. One could dominate the universe and counter the greatest experts with such a pet. “System, I’d like to develop a pet.” “An egg has been detected in the pool. The host hasn’t enabled the hatching service yet. Would you like to accept the quest to enable the hatching service?” the system’s notification echoed. Su Ping was surprised by the response. “Our store offers a hatching service?” “Hatching and developing pets for customers is the most fundamental service for the best pet store in the universe throughout history. It is a true blunder of the host to not have found the service when the store has already been upgraded to LV5,” said the system straight off. Lost for words, Su Ping stopped arguing with it and later said, “I accept the quest.” “Considering that the host has delayed in accepting the quest, its difficulty has been increased by five times. The host must hatch five pets in 24 hours. “Note number one: Young mammals can also be incubated. Their maturity must be improved.” “Note number two: Pet aptitude and bloodline must be improved by one level during the hatching! “The quest has been issued. Initiating the countdown.” Su Ping was again rendered speechless. Fortunately, he had enough resources to complete the quest, even though it was five times more difficult than before. Su Ping immediately left the Chaos Spirit Pool and saw Tang Ruyan welcoming the customers. The latter customers greeted Su Ping with awkwardness and glittering eyes after seeing him. In their eyes, Su Ping wasn’t just the boss in the store, but also the strongest genius of all Silvy. Most stores would consider customers as gods that the boss had to serve with care. However, the people present respected Su Ping as a god, fearing they could be kicked out after committing the smallest offense. Su Ping knew that those customers could hardly treat him as a normal person after his identity was exposed. He nodded at them and looked at the long queue outside of the store, for a moment reminiscing how unpopular his store had been when he first started business on that planet. He would have probably failed the quest if he would have accepted it back then. But considering the present moment… “This store is now providing incubation services. Does anyone need to hatch their pet eggs?” asked Su Ping. He didn’t raise his voice. However, everybody heard him loud and clear because of the reverberation resulting from the deity aura. All the customers on the street looked at each other in bewilderment. They were there because of Su Ping’s effective pet training; few had the need for that service at the moment— After all, there were special pet hatching centers for that. Those places were like pet hospitals with complete facilities. Furthermore, hatching represented a highly technical challenge; the eggs only needed to be taken care of carefully. The more sophisticated incubation method was to instill the pet with a special energy during the incubation, and then provide nutrition fluid afterwards, to ensure the pet’s health and provide a specific elemental stimulus the way its master wanted. Such an incubation was very costly. After a moment of silence, someone shouted among the crowd, “Boss, we have eggs! We have eggs!” Everybody looked in that direction, finding an obviously excited purple-haired young man. Su Ping felt relieved. He replied, “Please, over here.” The purple-haired young man was at the center of the street. He would have to wait for at least half a month for his turn to arrive. He was so excited after being called up that he directly moved towards him with a purple-haired girl in tow. The crowd made way for them and they soon found themselves before Su Ping. “Boss, my sister has two unhatched eggs. We were planning on taking them to the incubation center after training some pets at your place,” said the excited young man. The girl next to him seemed to be the bashful sort; her cheeks and even her ears turned red when all eyes were on them. She lowered her head anxiously. Su Ping’s eyes glittered. He quickly asked, “Why not have them incubate here?” “Of course!” replied the elated youngster, “Who would go to the incubation center if we can do it here? I would have brought pet eggs of my own if I had any.” He immediately urged his sister. “Take out your eggs.” The girl was blushing as she anxiously opened her storage and took out two gargantuan eggs, each being almost one meter tall. The two eggs had silver stripes on their surfaces and seemed to be glimmering; they clearly were no ordinary eggs. “They are Troy Dragon eggs, which carry a Star State bloodline!” “Tsk. How rare. Troy Dragons are among the top hundred fastest Star State pets.” “The brother and sister pair can’t be ordinary.” Exclamations were heard coming from the crowd. Troy Dragons weren’t as famous as the Vast Sky Thunderous Dragons on Rhea, they still were famous Star State dragons. The girl may have personally caught such dragons or bought through her own connections. “Boss, go ahead and put them in the incubator. It’ll be fine even if something goes wrong,” the purple-haired young man quickly offered. The girl glanced at Su Ping with nervous eyes, then quickly lowered her head once she saw that he was looking back at her. “I’ll try my best. I don’t think anything can go wrong. Its bloodline can even be improved a little bit,” said Su Ping with a smile. “Your incubation service improves pet bloodlines?” Su Ping’s revelation surprised the crowd; the brother and sister duo even more so, as it was their first time hearing about such a thing. It seemed that the marvelous trainer in Su Ping’s shop was really capable of doing that. The siblings looked at each other in excitement. Even a minor improvement would still be seen as very precious. A few other customers shouted after hearing that bloodlines could be improved. “Boss Su, I have pet eggs!” “Boss Su, so do I!” They had been unwilling to leave their eggs in Su Ping’s because they thought incubating was the same everywhere and Su Ping would probably charge more than other service providers. However, they were tempted once they heard about bloodline improvement. Even if they had to pay more money, it would be worth it if their pet was strengthened! Besides, although Su Ping’s store was expensive, all the services were surprisingly effective! Su Ping smiled and asked those customers to step up. He accepted all of their pets. Not many people carried pet eggs among the large number of clients on the street. Su Ping collected seven eggs soon after. Now was the time for the incubating part. Su Ping asked the customers to wait in the lobby. He then went to the Chaos Spirit Pool for Incubation by himself. Su Ping then saw an incubation bar on the store menu. “Please place the pet into the incubation bar,” the system hinted. Su Ping placed the seven eggs inside the warehouse of the store. Their data was immediately imported to the store menu, including their categories and bloodline. He picked a green lizard egg to incubate first. It was a venomous Fate State lizard filled with germs and lethal poisons; quite the tricky pet to deal with. The incubation procedure appeared on the bar. According to the instructions, Su Ping took out the egg and placed it inside the spirit pool. “Green Venomous Lizard, Fate State, incomplete bloodline. “Its bloodline may be improved to the Star State if its genes are optimized. “Materials required: Silver Fanged Serpents, Swamp Spiders, Cold Shell. “Energy required for hatching: 10,000.” Su Ping was stunned by the system’s notifications.?That many materials are required besides energy? He felt a headache and asked, “Where can I find those materials?” “Silver Fanged Serpents can be found on the Dark Serpent Planet, the Swamp River, the Silver Backed Subdragon World… “Swamp Spiders can be found in…” While Su Ping hesitated, the way to acquire those materials popped up in his head. He found that those places were mostly low-level cultivation sites in the system. Do I have to look for materials in the cultivation sites? Good thing I know where to find them.?Su Ping was relieved. He would have had to ask many people to help if he had to look for materials on his own. Su Ping also placed the other eggs inside the incubation bar. The materials required to optimize their genes also popped up. Su Ping memorized and listed the cultivation sites that came up repeatedly to avoid going there again and again. Once the information was properly sorted, Su Ping immediately set off to each of the mentioned cultivation sites. Su Ping was already considered to be really strong while in low-level cultivation sites; he could even dominate most of them. However, some of the low-level cultivation sites already had Ascendant State masters. Some places were so horrifying that Su Ping would die the moment he set foot in one. It took three hours; Su Ping finally gathered all of the materials. Three hours in the outside world equaled three days in the cultivation sites. He returned to the incubation room inside the store and began the process. One by one, the eggs were hatched in the Chaos Spirit Pool. A tiny bit of chaos aura would leak out every time an egg was hatched, which was almost untraceable. Su Ping had placed the Chaos Path Beast egg right next to the pool; it would then shake as if detecting something. Su Ping guessed that the Chaos beast egg was ravenous. Very soon, all seven pet eggs were hatched. The seven young beasts crouched in the room, their differently colored eyes looking around curiously. All of them kept a distance from the Chaos beast egg. Su Ping took out the seven hatched beasts from the spirit pool; their masters had waited for a long time in the lobby. “Your eggs have hatched.” Su Ping caught a lot of attention when he came out with the pets. Those who were there to train their pets looked at him too. “Here are your Troy Dragons.” Su Ping took two little dragons with silver wings to the brother and sister duo. The siblings were stunned to see the young dragons flapping their wings like sea lion fins. They didn’t expect the hatching to be that fast. Their eyes widened upon further inspection, somehow feeling they were different from the young Troy Dragons they knew. “B-Boss, are they really our pets?” the purple-haired young man couldn’t help but ask. He wasn’t even considering that Su Ping could have swapped the pets. After all, the two young dragons looked a lot like Troy Dragons, even though there were also a lot of differences between them and the standard ones. “Yes. Their bloodlines have been strengthened. They’ll probably become Star Lords when they grow up,” said Su Ping with a smile. Not just the brother and sister pair; the other customers also looked at Su Ping in surprise. Troy Dragons were Star State pets. Their bloodlines could hardly be improved without special training. However, such training was extremely costly. And yet, Su Ping claimed that those two would become Star Lords once they grew up? “Boss, about that…” The purple-haired young man was at a loss, not knowing what to say. Su Ping smiled and said to other customers, “These are your pets. This Green Venomous Lizard should be able to reach the Star State after reaching adulthood. Its bloodline was optimized. You’ll discover that they’re different from their peers in a few months, when they grow a little bit.” “Hooo!” The two little dragons suddenly flapped their wings and soared up while Su Ping talked. One of them even spewed out a small whirlwind.
