Chapter 4: The Rebirth of the Starved Pig

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

Ning Yue could only hide in a small alley convenient for escape, gritting his teeth and cursing this plague-ridden little black pig. How could this possibly be a transcendent divine beast? It is completely akin to a starving pig being reincarnated. When Second Senior Brother went to the West, he was not starved to this extent.

As Ning Yue passed by a tea restaurant holding the Fire Pig, this extraordinary beast muttered something, but Ning Yue paid no attention. The items in this establishment were exceedingly expensive; he did not have enough change on him to order even two buns, and it was also quite difficult to sneak into the kitchen of such a restaurant. However, just as he was preparing to "pass by" with his gaze fixed ahead, the Fire Pig suddenly leaped up, stumbling and swaying, and dashed into the restaurant.

Upon returning home, Ning Yue did not dare to mention the report card to his parents. He retreated to his room and began to contemplate the usefulness of the dimensional battlefield

In addition to having dinner and dealing with his parents' inquiries about his grades, Ning Yue devoted the entire evening to pondering the dimensional battlefield. The effort he put in yielded significant rewards, and by dawn, he had gained some insights and initially grasped the knack for opening the dimensional battlefield. Although each activation still required at least ten minutes, he no longer had to rely on luck or chance.

Otherwise, I will first practice how to proficiently open the dimensional battlefield

Ning Yue suddenly hesitated for a moment and exclaimed, "Oh no! Oh no! This is terrible! I actually didn't go to school today; I'm going to be scolded to death by the teacher!"

A few minutes later, the fire pig burst out with ten times more energy than before, energetically charging into the third restaurant

In any case, there are only two or three days left until the holiday, and Ning Yue has no assignments. Even if we indulge ourselves, it won't be a big deal.

He raised his hand, grabbed the room's fire pig, and threw it under the bed, shouting: "What are you shouting about! I am not awake yet!"

Ning Yue covered his face, hesitating for a few seconds before realizing what to do. He quickly ran out of the tea restaurant, as he had no money to compensate the owner. It was better to pretend not to know this little black pig and swiftly get rid of the trouble

There are more than ten restaurants on this street, and the fire pig did not take even half an hour to sweep through without missing a single one.

In a state between half-dreaming and half-awake, I was pressed on the chest by a little pig, which caused a sudden discomfort in my chest, nearly making me spit blood. Then, I was shouted at by the room's fire pig right next to my ear, which threw all my sensory organs into disarray. It took quite a while for me to recover, and of course, I could no longer fall asleep.

As for those diners who caught up but found no trace of the room's fire pig, expressing their astonishment, Ning Yue could only silently pray that they would find solace in their grief and order another dish to eat

The fire pig seemed to know where Ning Yue was hiding, swiftly turning a corner and charging into the alley. It then leaped into Ning Yue's arms, exclaiming: "I am full and want to sleep! Those people behind you are up to you; do not let them disturb this divine beast's sleep, or I will burn you to ashes in no time."

Ning Yue had indeed considered putting his backpack and other items inside, so that he wouldn't have to carry a backpack to school, but could simply take them out from the dimensional battlefield, which would be incredibly cool! However, his mastery of the dimensional battlefield was far too unskilled; successfully opening it even once required a combination of luck and personal fortune. If he needed to retrieve his textbooks but found himself unable to open the dimensional battlefield, the consequences would be dire, and there is no need to elaborate on how terrible that situation would be.

When the sky began to brighten, Ning Yue could no longer resist the invasion of sleep. She turned over and lay down on the bed, falling into a deep slumber, completely forgetting that she needed to take her report card to school for the teacher today, and that the parent-teacher meeting was scheduled for the afternoon

Ning Yue had only run a few dozen meters when he heard a familiar grunting sound. The room fire pig had already dashed out of the tea restaurant and then plunged into another restaurant that appeared to be quite upscale, at least relative to Ning Yue's social class, it could be considered a very high-end place

At first, he thought that such a ruined ancient city was of no use to him at all, but the fire pig reminded him that although this place appeared to be a ruin, it could be used to store things, a lot of things

The little black pig tilted its head and lay down in Ning Yue's arms, falling asleep. Ning Yue was taken aback for a moment, then quickly opened her backpack and placed the pig inside. Only then did she pretend as if nothing had happened, turning in another direction and hastily making her escape.

Ning Yue began to concentrate his mind according to the teachings imparted to him by Xu Xun. This time, he spent more than two hours before he finally succeeded in returning to the dimensional battlefield by chance. Then, he spent another forty to fifty minutes before he successfully emerged from the dimensional battlefield

He hurriedly jumped up, disregarding the angry and grunting room fire pig that was scurrying around his feet, and lunged towards the backpack. When he saw that both the inside and outside of the backpack were covered in black charcoal pigskin, the expression on his face was truly spectacular, as spectacular as it could be. He let out a wail to the heavens, picked up the room fire pig, and shouted, "What are you doing? Why did you make my backpack so dirty?"

Ning Yue was taken aback as he watched the little pig in the room display a desperate demeanor. When he rushed in after, he saw the little pig gritting its teeth and jumping onto a dining table, completely disregarding the astonished expressions of the diners. In just one minute, it cleared the table of all the food.

This store is quite good

The little black pig, with its four chubby short legs splayed out, regained speed of at least 30 to 40 percent. Although a few diners, whose meals had been snatched from the table, chased after it in an attempt to capture the little black pig, they were no match for its speed

In other words, although this dimensional battlefield appears somewhat dilapidated, it can function similarly to renowned treasures such as "storage rings," "Qian Kun realms," "treasure bags," "spatial equipment," and "time-space knots." The damaged buildings do not hinder its ability to hold a multitude of items within.

The room's fire pig bit its teeth, vigorously shook its body, and immediately shed the black skin on its body, revealing the colorful fur underneath. It let out a satisfied grunt twice, then glanced at Ning Yue, leaped from the desk onto Ning Yue's body, nudged him with its small mouth, and shouted loudly: "Get up quickly, lazy one! I'm already hungry, hurry and take me to find something to eat, get up now!"

Now the question arises, although Ning Yue has discovered this function, he actually has nothing to put into it

Ning Yue's parents happened to have some matters to attend to today. Knowing that he was about to start his summer vacation, they did not urge him to get up. Before he knew it, it was already past ten in the morning, and Ning Yue was still not awake. Suddenly, his backpack moved, and a little black pig pushed open the zipper of the backpack and crawled out.

Hello! What are you doing

More than ten minutes later, there were already onlookers everywhere, and it was impossible to tell how many people were pointing and discussing the commotion surrounding the little pig fighting for food

The fire pig cast a disdainful glance at him and said word by word: "You little brat, quickly put me down, show me some respect, otherwise do you believe it! I—one—minute—..."
