Chapter 1514 - The Last Upgrade (2)

Those were the bonds he could never get rid of.

The war between the Sorcerer Ancestors and the Heavens has begun. I don’t have much time left. Even if I can’t change the world, I hope I have the power to at least keep myself safe…?Su Ping gradually understood the Golden Crows’ decision: they strove to keep themselves safe until they were strong enough to save the world.

“Boss.”

“Boss Su.”

All the customers greeted him respectfully upon sight, with earnest faces and admiring eyes; they sincerely revered the last leader of humanity.

All the human experts knew they would have died if not for him.

Su Ping gave them a slight nod. He also nodded at Joanna and Green Lady before he stepped out of the store and rose to the sky right under the green glass.

“How is it going?”

Su Ping looked at Elaine.

Elaine was slightly surprised by his appearance out of the blue, but she soon calmed down. She narrowed her eyes, as she felt small differences in that human leader upon his return, especially a certain gravitas that even she found oppressive. She was truly astonished.

“Nothing’s wrong. Everything has been going well,” said Elaine, “We’re on the safest route. Nothing will happen.”

“Don’t be too confident too soon,” said Su Ping.

Elaine: “?”

“Tell me if anything is wrong. I’m going back to my secluded training.” Su Ping didn’t stay for too long; he simply turned around and left.

She looked at the spot where he disappeared, deep in thought. For some reason, she found that human leader very terrifying. He had done his best to conceal his power, but she still had a sense of danger.

However, she was an Undying State expert.?Could Su Ping be a threat to me?

…

Once back in the store, Su Ping simply greeted everyone and then summoned the system.

“I’ve already met the requirements to upgrade the store, right?”

“The upgrade will cost a billion energy points. Are you sure you want to upgrade?” replied the system rigidly.

Su Ping secretly rolled his eyes. “Of course.”

“The store will be closed during the upgrade; only the cultivation sites will be accessible,” said the system. Its voice was somehow cold and sad.

The voice made him feel that the system was a real living creature with emotions.

“I hope you can tell me how to resurrect the Little Skeleton after the upgrade,” said Su Ping.

“It’s actually very easy to resurrect the Little Skeleton. Don’t worry,” said the system.

Su Ping’s heart skipped a few beats. “How?”

“You’ll know when the upgrade takes effect,” said the system, “The time needed for the upgrade is uncertain; it may take months or years. Just wait patiently.”

“That long?”

Su Ping felt dazed.

The usual was for the system to upgrade within 24 or 48 hours.

It had only taken a week to upgrade the store to level eight.

The system didn’t reply. Instead, Su Ping only heard a gloomy sigh.

There seemed to be an infinite jumble of feelings in that sigh; he was taken aback by it.

Once the energy points were deducted, Su Ping soon noticed the changes in the store. He brought up the store panel, only to find that the menu was dim and the system’s store couldn’t be opened.

He selected the cultivation sites’ list. He found that the Remains of High Heavens was dim, while the other cultivation sites were accessible.

So, I can’t enter the Remains of High Heavens during the system upgrade? Looks like the place is truly dangerous; even the system has to be careful,?thought Su Ping.

“Huh?”

Green Lady, Joanna and the others were looking at Su Ping.

Being official employees who have signed a contract with the system, they received the notification that the store was closed.

This would only happen when the store was being upgraded.

Su Ping glanced at them and nodded in affirmation. He said to them, “The store is being upgraded; you can take a break. Tell me if you want to go to a cultivation site. Or maybe you can just cultivate inside the store.”

Joanna said, “I want to take a look at the Archean Divinity.”

“Okay.”

Green Lady said, “I’ll just stay here. Be safe.”

Su Ping nodded and asked them to settle the customers’ orders.

The latter had no choice but to leave reluctantly. They didn’t complain, though, as they saw the upgrade as an excuse; Su Ping surely had something important to do.

The things that were important to him were important to all of humanity. No one would dare to complain; they would simply wait.

Su Ping asked Tang Ruyan to make an announcement, declaring that the store would be closed for months if not years, all to prevent customers from wasting time waiting.

Once it was only Su Ping and his employees, he asked Joanna to pick a few pets that required professional training. Then he set off to the Archean Divinity.

The Remains of High Heavens was closed for the moment; he couldn’t go there even if he wanted to. However, he wouldn’t go right now, even if the option was available.

He had already found a way to improve; he just had to gather a lot of Great Daos. Going to the Remains of High Heavens would only slow down his cultivation; he would only be caught in a meaningless battle if he met the Heavens again.

Everything would be pointless until I become a Sorcerer Ancestor!

Su Ping was going to condense all the Great Daos he had perceived into universes. Although he didn’t have a Chaos Qualification, he would also be capable of building thousands of universes with one thought and fight the Sorcerer Ancestors!

Once everything was ready, Su Ping took Joanna to the Archean Divinity.
