Super God Pet Shop

Chapter 186 Passing Inspection

"Aren't you coming back with us?"

The three of them were somewhat taken aback by Su Ping's tone.

Su Ping said, "I'd like to wander around here a bit more, since this is my first time in the secret realm."

Hearing Su Ping say this, the three understood. However, with Nie Chengkong and Guo Yuelin dead, they really had no desire to linger here. Besides, with their strength, entering the secret realm would be extremely dangerous. Staying here would only allow them to watch the excitement from the plaza.

Ye Chenshan casually released a star power barrier to block out the sound, his lips slightly moving as he asked Su Ping, "What should we do with our secret treasure and the materials from those demonic beasts?"

Su Ping hesitated for a moment, then his lips twitched slightly as he said, "How about we find a place to distribute the items first?"

Ye Chenshan glanced at Luo Guxue and Zhou Jing, and seeing that they had no objections, he said, "That's fine too."

"Let's get the items inspected first," Zhou Jing said. At the outer edge of this plaza, there was a group of men in black who were specifically responsible for inspecting the teams leaving this place. All items that the teams had explored from the secret realm needed to be inspected.

In other words, nothing can be hidden or smuggled out secretly.

These men in black are the forces under the control of the mastermind behind the Longtai Mountain Secret Realm. This mastermind is not a single person, but possibly an extremely large united group. It is precisely because of this that they dare to open the secret realm to the outside world without worrying that the treasures inside will fall into the wrong hands.

However, if a team does discover a peerless treasure, they will not "steal" it. Instead, they will acquire it in a fair manner, perhaps by purchasing it with a huge sum of money or by bartering.

To put it bluntly, the pioneering teams that come to explore the secret realm are all just laborers. The truly super treasures are very difficult to take away; they can only obtain some relatively good secret treasures. As for some top-grade secret treasures, although they cannot be taken away, they can be exchanged for a lifetime of wealth, or other items of great value. Of course, they can also be exchanged for a status and position that is difficult to achieve through normal means in a lifetime.

This is why, even though the most secret treasures cannot be revealed, teams still flock to explore them.

After all, most people only really want those decent secret treasures, and they don't dare to dream of getting the top-quality treasures that even titled powerhouses would be envious of.

Upon hearing that the investigation had been conducted, Su Ping, Ye Chenshan, and Luo Guxue's expressions all changed slightly.

When the inspection was conducted, the Star Essence Fruit could not be hidden. Although it was not a true top-grade treasure and could not attract the attention of a titled expert, it was extremely attractive to a ninth-tier expert, allowing them to directly reach their limit!

The next step requires both opportunity and luck to break through the shackles of a king.

Ye Chenshan and Luo Guxue both looked at Su Ping. If Su Ping consumed the Star Essence Fruit here, he could pass the inspection. After all, the treasure had already been eaten, so it wouldn't be detected. And even if they knew, they couldn't make Su Ping spit it out.

This consumable, top-grade treasure is the only thing that can be easily "brought out" for inspection.

just.

Although Ye Chenshan did not know Su Ping's strength, he was clearly not a ninth-level expert. In that case, it would be a waste for Su Ping to consume the Star Essence Fruit.

Luo Guxue had some understanding of Su Ping based on his performance at the academy. At this moment, she hoped that Su Ping could directly consume the spiritual fruit, so that even if Su Ping was only a beginner at the ninth rank, he could use the spiritual fruit to directly advance to the middle of the ninth rank!

For a genius like Su Ping, time is money. Although the effects of the spiritual fruit were not maximized, it was still worthwhile.

Su Ping had considered this point beforehand, but he was already at the upper level of the fourth rank and would soon reach the fifth rank. He could reach that level quickly through his own cultivation, so taking the medicine now would be a complete waste.

"If I can sell it, it's worth it," Su Ping thought to himself. He didn't care much about the product, as it could only be taken once and would lose its effect after the second one.

He has fruit trees, which he can take back and replant. It's most cost-effective to consume them when he reaches the ninth rank. So, he originally planned to sell this one to make money so he could upgrade his shop when he got back.

"Let's go," Su Ping said calmly.

Seeing Su Ping's nonchalant attitude, the two exchanged a glance, somewhat puzzled.

But this thing belongs to Su Ping, and they don't know what Su Ping plans to do, nor can they persuade him otherwise.

Soon, the group arrived at the inspection area.

This is a spacious room in the square, where a group of figures in black uniforms stand, along with several other figures dressed in different outfits, some sitting and some leaning. Each of them exudes a powerful and profound aura, and without exception, they are all titled level experts!

It would be almost impossible for an ordinary person to carry the secret treasure out of here. After all, there are still a Sword Master at the limit of the title above, as well as several other old guys at the limit of the title, monitoring from the shadows. Except for the Dragon Scale Region within the secret realm, which cannot be monitored, every place in the plaza outside is under strict surveillance.

Seeing Su Ping and his group approach, the bearded middle-aged man in charge of surveillance glanced at them indifferently, expressionless, and said, "Cooperate and hand over your backpacks."

He was at the limit of the eighth rank, only one step away from the titled level. However, this one step difference meant that other titled level experts could stay here at will, only needing to take action to punish anyone who caused trouble. But he had to stay here and make everyone who passed through the prison retrieve their items, which was equivalent to being on duty at all times.

Ye Chenshan hesitated for a moment, then opened his backpack and poured the contents into a snow-white tray.

Besides dry rations, the backpack contained monster crystals collected along the way.

These energy crystals are fleshy growths that develop within the bodies of demonic beasts. However, due to the energy trapped inside, the growths have become energy-based, detached from their fleshy appearance, and resemble pebbles. The rich energy contained within them makes the stones appear hazy and somewhat mysterious and peculiar.

His backpack mainly contained energy crystals, dozens of them of various sizes, while the rest were packed in Luo Guxue's backpack.

The middle-aged man with a thick beard raised his eyebrows slightly. So many energy crystals were beyond his expectations. When he saw several brightly colored crystals that were the size of a fist, his pupils couldn't help but shrink.

The energy in these crystals was extremely concentrated. With his eyes that had seen countless crystals, he could tell at a glance that they were energy crystals of a ninth-order demon beast!

Six in total!

So, this team killed six ninth-tier demonic beasts?!

Not only was the bearded middle-aged man astonished, but several titled figures casually sitting nearby also cast surprised glances upon sensing the energy fluctuations. When they saw the ninth-tier energy crystal on the tray, they involuntarily looked at Su Ping and the others.

However, when they sensed the energy fluctuations emanating from Su Ping and the others, they became somewhat puzzled.

Clearly, among Su Ping and his group, there were no other titled experts of the same rank as them; they were all high-level battle pet masters.

Among them, Su Ping's aura was the most strange, extremely weak, even less than a fifth-tier battle pet master. It was unclear whether he was hiding it too well or if that was really the case.

The middle-aged man with a thick beard looked at Ye Chenshan and asked with a focused gaze, "Did you hunt all of these?"

Ye Chenshan nodded slightly, sensing the doubt in the bearded middle-aged man's tone, and said, "These were hunted by our captain and two other masters, but unfortunately, they perished inside..."

Upon hearing this, the bearded middle-aged man and several titled beings showed relief, but their eyes then became somewhat strange. The strong were dead, and the weak actually came back. It was hard to say whether these guys were incredibly lucky or whether their captain and those two masters were just too unlucky.

"Yours." The bearded middle-aged man pointed at Luo Guxue.

Luo Guxue also opened her backpack and emptied its contents, including some energy crystals, two of which belonged to ninth-tier demon beasts. Apart from that, the rest were some useful materials from the demon beasts.

Because they were in a hurry, they didn't have time to collect many valuable materials, and only picked out the most useful ones.
