Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Indefinitely - Chapter 432
Chapter 432: Chapter 428: Beta’s words, as good as Tang Monk
Spurred by Alpha, Bai Qiucha and the Bone Dragon unleashed powers far beyond their previous capabilities. The advantages of being a Spirit Master fully displayed, they swiftly dealt with another Thorn Tyrant.
At the same time, the teleportation array to the fourth level appeared.
“Cha, do you need some time to recover?”
Bai Qi looked at Bai Qiucha and asked.
“No need, the Bone Dragon recovers quickly here, and my spirit power has also been replenished.”
Bai Qiucha shook his head and pointed to the middle of his eyebrows, saying, “Although it’s not much, the Bone Dragon’s spirit power can be directly fed back to me.”
“Wow… No wonder they say that Spirit Masters have the rarest talent in the history of the Federation. It’s not an exaggeration at all.”
Hearing this, Bai Qi couldn’t help but marvel and asked, “You said before that you would get a new ability every time you advanced a stage. Can you tell me what these abilities are?”
As someone with multiple abilities himself, Bai Qi was naturally curious.
“There’s no harm in telling, It’s nothing that can’t be mentioned.”
Bai Qiucha said, “In order, they are Soul Strengthening, Physique Strengthening, Skeleton Armor, Soul Revival, and Soul Armor. You’ve basically seen all of them.”
“They really are all related to combat.”
Bai Qi made no secret of his envy, but when he thought about the development ability of his Evolution Egg, he managed to let it go.
No matter how many combat bonuses there were, he would strengthen them all in advance, filling in whatever was lacking.
Right, we’re not envious at all.
“Don’t look at me like that, I’m actually quite envious of you.”
Bai Qiucha glanced at the six different pets behind Bai Qi, flashing a hint of envy in his eyes.
To be able to interact with all kinds of different pets was his dream since childhood.
Roar…
It seemed that the Bone Dragon sensed Bai Qiucha’s thoughts and suddenly let out a low roar, gently rubbing against Bai Qiucha’s body.
“Alright, alright, I was just thinking about it.”
Seeing that the Bone Dragon was actually jealous, Bai Qiucha immediately comforted it.
As much as he envied, he and the Bone Dragon had grown up together since childhood, and their relationship was not something any ordinary pet could compare to.
“Let’s go, let’s see what the fourth level is like.”
Looking at Bai Qiucha and the Bone Dragon being affectionate, Bai Qi shrugged his shoulders and, leading the Six Pets, entered the teleportation array first.
The light flickered, and the Bone Grassland gradually disappeared, replaced by a dark environment. Faint, subtle noises could be heard, but the sounds echoed all around, making it impossible to locate their source.
“Epsilon, give us some light.”
“Alright, Boss.”
The Glow Worm nodded, flew above everyone’s heads, and immediately illuminated the surroundings with a warm sunlight.
“Is this, a cave?”
Bai Qi looked at the stalactites hanging from the ceiling like cones and said.
“Bai Qi, I can sense that the shadow energy here is much stronger. It feels like there’s a powerful being here. Do you need me to take care of it first?”
Nicholas swept his vertical pupils over the cave. The winding paths didn’t impede his perception at all and he found the source directly.
“No need to rush, I’m here for the Experience, not to face life and death. You don’t need to act unless it’s necessary.”
Bai Qi patted Nicholas and looked at the Cowskin Snake coiled around his neck, saying, “Nicholas, are you not afraid of snakes anymore?”
“Snake? Master Aleta said he’s not a snake.”
Nicholas yanked the Cowskin Snake off with one hand, saying, “Although Master Aleta can’t figure out its race either, she’s certain it’s not a snake.”
“So, you’re not afraid of it anymore?”
Hearing this, Bai Qi couldn’t help but chuckle and then curiously started to inspect the Cowskin Snake.
He had known for a while that it wasn’t an ordinary creature, but even Old Lady Fan and Master Aleta, two beings that stood at the peak of the Federation’s legendary creatures, couldn’t figure it out. The Cowskin Snake’s origins were a bit exaggerated.
What if they pulled off a bit of its scales, skin, or flesh and fused it with the Evolution Egg for a look?
“Human, why are you looking at me like that!”
The Cowskin Snake was startled awake by Bai Qi’s gaze and looked at him with suspicion.
“Nothing, just seeing that you are sleeping so blissfully, I was worried you would catch a cold.”
Bai Qi turned his head away and stopped talking, but the Cowskin Snake’s sense of crisis only became stronger.
Worried about me catching a cold?
I knew it; this guy has the same idea as that stupid dog. He wants to stew me!
Woof woof?
(Do I sense someone talking badly about me?)
Beta looked around for a while and finally set his sights on the Cowskin Snake.
After examining everything, this guy seemed to be the most suspicious…
Soon, the teleportation array lit up again, and Bai Qiucha and the Bone Dragon were teleported over.
“Is this level’s environment a cave?”
Bai Qiucha looked around and said, “This environment puts us at a disadvantage.”
“No problem, with Epsilon here, it’s all the same.”
Bai Qi shrugged, looking at the figures moving in the shadows not far away, and said, “However, this way, none of these guys dare to come out.”
Although the Glow Worm’s sunlight attribute wasn’t as direct and violent as Jie Ta’s, it was extremely effective in restraining the shadow force. Unless they were higher level than the Glow Worm, they probably wouldn’t dare to approach Bai Qi and his team.
“So it seems.”
Bai Qiucha was sensing discomfort coming from the Bone Dragon, and said, “Let me clear the way ahead and quicken the pace.”
With that, Bai Qiucha immediately armed himself and, flapping his dragon wings, flew into the darkness of the cave.
“How great, no need to worry about injury.”
Bai Qi thoughfully pursed his lips; the fusion of the Skeleton Armor and Soul Armor was akin to a Beast Master’s union with his pet, creating a protective talent. With these two abilities, Bai Qiucha didn’t need to worry about sustaining injuries whilst venturing deep into enemy territory.
“Gamma, remember to protect me.”
Bai Qi held Gamma close and mounted Delta, placing Alpha and Husky on his left and right respectively before leisurely following in the direction in which Bai Qiucha had set out.
He lacked the Fusion Gift; had he been ambushed, he would surely have been done for. It was better to be careful.
After traversing a section of the passage, the cave suddenly expanded. Even with the full lighting of the Cave Grass, the top of the cave was not visible.
“Whoever designed this terrain… if one can’t fly, they could easily fall to their death.”
Bai Qi looked at the winding path ahead, and the deep pits on either side before saying,
“I’ve looked over it and it seems all the terrain ahead is like this. But strangely all the lifeforms we saw earlier seem to have hidden away.”
Bai Qiucha, flapping his Bone Wings, flew back from afar and said,
“Or possibly, they’re preparing to ambush us.”
Bai Qi looked around and patted Husky, “Did you find anything?”
“There are many souls hidden in the abyss surrounding us, but they’re all hiding in the shadows and aren’t very noticeable.”
Jerry’s dark golden eyes scanned the abyss, “Do you need me to root them out?”
“It’s too troublesome to catch them one by one. Beta can handle it.”
Bai Qi looked at Beta, “I’ll leave this to you; just try to scare them off.”
Arrooo!
(Leave it to me!)
Beta lifted his skull, his face full of confidence as he stepped forward. He cleared his throat and then let out a long howl.
Arrooo~
The melodious wolf howl echoed through the cave, but after a long while, there was no movement in the abyss.
“Bai Qi, are you sure Beta can do it?”
Seeing this, Bai Qiucha felt uncertain and considered using the Bone Dragon to aggressively prompt them out.
“Don’t worry. When it comes to causing a fuss, Beta is a professional.”
Bai Qi cracked a smile, and took out a metal helmet and offered it to Qiucha, “You might need this, it could get loud.”
“No need, I have the Bone Dragon Helmet.”
Bai Qiucha tapped the helmet on his head, politely refusing Bai Qi’s offer.
“Very well then.”
Bai Qi shrugged and put the helmet on his own head.
Larynx cleared, Beta began his performance; the Demon Subduing Mantra, accompanied by the ups and downs of the wolf howl, echoed throughout the entire cave.
Afterward, various creatures emerged from the shadows, howling and charging towards Beta. Beta remained unmoved, continuing to recite scriptures Bai Qi had taught him.
Just as these shadow creatures were about to slam into Beta, a golden light suddenly emerged around him. The shadow creatures, caught off guard, went head-on into it.
Diamond Strength.
As the signature ability of the Demon-subduing Venerable God, the defensive capabilities of the Diamond Strength were absolutely top tier within the Federation, but its attack power was even more terrifying.
Upon contact with Diamond Strength, the shadow creatures melted away like ice and snow, instantly disappearing.
Despite this, the shadow creatures continuously charged at Husky, seeming to want to use their numerical advantage to disrupt Beta’s chant.
Compared to the Diamond Strength, the Demon-subduing Mantra, accompanied by Buddhist scriptures, caused them more pain.
“Bai Qi, give me one of those helmets.”
Looking at Husky, who were purifying countless shadow creatures like some sort of Buddha, Bai Qiucha requested a Spirit Isolation Helmet from Bai Qi.
This Demon Subduing Mantra was good, but it also had some effects on friendly forces.
Too annoying…
“Here. You keep it. I have many more.”
Bai Qi grinned, he was well acquainted with how horrifying the collateral effects of Beta’s reading the scriptures could be.
Just like Monk Tang!
Ribbitribbitcawcaw.
(Boss, that big creature’s coming)
Just then, Alpha suddenly became alert, watching closely at a certain area in the shadow across.
Looking where Alpha indicated, Bai Qi observed as several creatures, solidly built like dragonflies, emerged from the shadows, slowly encircling Husky.
Behind these dragonfly-like creatures, a creature, similarly cloaked in Shadow Department Power but resembling a human, floated over.
“Hmm, this is the creature this dragon sensed. Are you sure you’ll be okay, Bai Qi?”
Nicholas lifted his head and inquired once more.
“Let’s not rush, let’s observe it first.”
Bai Qi shook his head and began scrolling through his mental database for a match to this creature.
Right at that moment, the Cowskin Snake raised its head, seemingly confused.
A Dark Race Summoner? These creatures haven’t gone extinct?”
