Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Indefinitely-Chapter 330 - 326: Slaying Ferocious Beasts, Snatching Skills!

Chapter 330: Chapter 326: Slaying Ferocious Beasts, Snatching Skills!

Bai Villa.

“Thunder!”

A Lightning Rat, entirely encased in yellow armor, was excitedly releasing boundless energy in the courtyard, leaving burnt marks everywhere. The beast sparring with the Lightning Rat was Bai Qiucha’s Bone Dragon.

“Armament Evolution, sometimes I really wonder how your brain is structured, Bai Qi. You multitask so much yet you never lag in any of them.”

Bai Qiucha watched the Lightning Rat and Bone Dragon frolicking below and couldn’t help but sigh.

If the Lightning Rat was just a pet to him before, it was now a beast with considerable strength.

At least, Bai Qiucha could no longer withstand the Lightning Rat’s thunderbolts.

“Like I’ve said before, I’m merely assembling other people’s research. The credit isn’t all mine. And speaking of achievements, you’re the one who’s overdoing it.”

Bai Qi pouted, “The youngest Fifth Stage Beastmaster in Federation history, student Bai Qiucha~”

“If other people knew about someone’s speed of advancement, they probably wouldn’t pay attention to me anymore.”

Bai Qiucha gave a bitterly helpless smile. Although he was indeed the youngest Fifth Stage Beastmaster in the Federation’s history, compared to Bai Qi, who reached Fifth Stage within months, it was nothing much.

“Oh right, did the teacher say when he’s coming back?”

Bai Qi stretched lazily. A few days ago, Professor Chu had given him Endless Material Science, so he had been studying new mechanical materials with Schuck for the past few days and hadn’t had a good rest.

“Should be soon. This morning, I got a call from dad saying he’d be here by noon, so he should be here in a while.”

Bai Qiucha asked, “I heard from Brother Luo that you’ve trained your second king-level creature? When shall we have a fight?”

“Uh, let’s wait a bit longer. A fight between Fifth Stage monarch-level creatures would cause too much damage. I’m afraid that President Qin might beat me to death.”

As a former emperor-level creature, Bone Dragon’s advancements became increasingly exaggerated with Bai Qiucha’s level ups. Almost as soon as Bai Qiucha reached the fifth stage, Bone Dragon reached the highest of the two levels.

Such treatment of recalling a large memory, was only afforded to Cha within the entire Federation.

Fighting such a beast, Bai Qi estimated that even Alpha would need to use all its strength. If they tore up the Federation Association building in Gusu City, President Qin wouldn’t let him off easily.

Hearing Bai Qi’s explanation, Bai Qiucha was somewhat confused but didn’t insist. Moments later, when he saw a fast-approaching dark shadow in the sky outside the window, his eyes immediately lit up.

“Dad’s back!”

As soon as he’d spoken, the Jiuyou Darkbird, carrying Bai Heguang, landed in the courtyard. The Lightning Rat, who was previously in high spirits, instantly hid inside Bone Dragon’s body upon sensing the terrifying aura from the Jiuyou Darkbird. It peered cautiously through the gaps of the skeleton at the man and the bird.

“Dad.” “Teacher.”

Bai Qiucha and Bai Qi came to the courtyard in succession and greeted Bai Heguang.

“Mm.”

Bai Heguang nodded, glanced at the Bone Dragon to the side, and said, “Has it reached the fifth stage? Not bad, but you shouldn’t forget to familiarize yourself with the talent of a Soul Communicator. Otherwise, even if you ascend to Legend, relying solely on one beast won’t be enough.”

“I understand.”

Bai Qiucha nodded, seemingly accustomed to Bai Heguang’s instructional style upon their meeting and Bai Qi secretly felt sympathy on one side.

No wonder he’s the youngest Fifth Stage Beastmaster. This family atmosphere is brutal.

“And Bai Qi, how have your Beastmaster training been recently?”

However, before Bai Qi could gloat for long, Bai Heguang shifted focus to him.

“Uh, I haven’t slacked off.”

Under Bai Heguang’s scrutinizing gaze, Bai Qi conscientiously summoned all five of his pets.

Gamma and Delta didn’t show any significant changes. As for Alpha, who had comprehended another Transcendent Skill, and the Husky who was gradually assimilating the Guardian of the Underworld’s legacy, their auras were noticeably different.

However, if anyone were the most flamboyant, it had to be the Bug Grass.

The environment instantly warmed up upon Bug Grass’ appearance, and under the reflections of the noonday sun, the Bug Grass seemed like a mini Sun, spreading warm rays of light. Two colorful tentacles above its head added some color to the luminescence.

Passive Transcendent Skill: Sun Wheel.

As the bloodline skill of the Sun Beetle, unless suppressed by the Bug Grass, Sun Wheel would activate automatically upon exposure to sunlight. A sunny day is one of its basic effects.

“Is this the pet which absorbed the shell of the Sun Beetle?”

Bai Heguang glanced at the Bug Grass and said, “A Mythical Species, worth developing carefully.”

“Understood.”

Bai Qi nodded. The advantages of Mythical Species were well-known. His pets were all unusual, otherwise, anyone else would directly train the Bug Grass as the main pet.

“I will be on vacation in Gusu City for a month and will oversee your training.”

Bai Heguang took out a taskboard and handed it to Bai Qi, saying, “This board lists the active ferocious beasts around Gusu City and several neighboring cities. Eliminate them one by one following the order I’ve set. If you complete ahead of time, come to me to get the remaining tasks.”

“Alright, I’ll leave as soon as I get things in order.”

As Bai Qi was about to leave after taking the taskboard, Bai Heguang waved his hand signaling him to wait.

“Leave your main pet Alpha with me during this period. Jiuyou will train it. I’ll return it to you before I leave.”

“Leave Alpha behind?”

Bai Qi paused at the thought, recalling that Bai Heguang had indeed mentioned training Alpha to control the Power of Death. After some hesitation, he nodded.

“Then I’ll trouble you, Professor.”

Even though he missed the Evolution Egg for a month, which might cause Alpha to lag behind in its race value, if it could proficiently control the Power of Death, it would not be a disadvantage.

“Hmm.”

Bai Heguang nodded, saying, “You don’t have to rush to embark on your journey. Most of these ferocious beasts live far from the cities, and their environments are complex. It would be best to fully understand the information before setting off.”

“Thank you for the reminder, Professor. I will keep that in mind.”

Bai Heguang gave Bai Qi a few more words of advice before turning and returning to the house. Bai Qi and Bai Qiucha exchanged a glance and decided not to disturb him further.

Even though Bai Heguang hid it well, Bai Qi and Bai Qiucha still detected his fatigue. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have taken a month-long rest this time.

“Then I’ll head back first, I’ll come by again another day.”

After instructing Alpha briefly, Bai Qi gave Bai Qiucha a salute and then briskly walked away.

Fittingly, during his unanticipated two-day rest, he had been longing to get out and stretch his legs, and lo and behold, he was served on a platter. The beasts chosen by Bai Heguang would certainly not be weak, and he expected the materials extracted from them would not be of low quality either.

“Finally, I can improve the Skill Atlas again~”

Bai Qi was eager to start and quickly began examining the data on the task board.

Kill ferocious beasts, Obtain Skills!

…

In the outskirts of Langya City.

Bai Qi lay comfortably on a reclining chair, enjoying the kebabs handed to him by Gamma while checking the current state of his four pets. Meanwhile, alongside him, Gamma was deftly extracting valuable resources from a Lord-level Faceless Spider.

“Schuck, how many ferocious beasts have we cleared up to now?”

“We’ve completed 11 Lord-level beasts, nine more to go, and no King-level beasts yet, five more to go.”

Schuck quickly updated the progress and casually projected a map in the air, saying, “Next target, King-level ferocious beast, Desolate Ghost Frog King, habitat, Black Nightmare Swamp, fifty-seven kilometers from here.”

“Finally, a King-level creature?”

Bai Qi perked up. Bai Heguang must have considered the increasing difficulty and the distance when planning his route, so Bai Qi didn’t want to waste time taking a detour and went straightforwardly.

Perhaps Bai Heguang took into account that Bai Qi’s main pet, Alpha, was not present, so the creatures Bai Qi encountered at first were all Lord creatures. It was more than halfway through now that the first King appeared.

“Come on, show me what nature it is. I might be able to burst out some decent skills.”

Although he found useful materials in the first eleven Lord beasts, apart from a few used to upgrade the vine worms’ skills, there were no skills Bai Qi liked, so he planned to exchange some materials that only enhance basic attributes when he returned.

Pets have limited energy. Even with the help of the vine’s dreamland to enhance skill proficiency, Bai Qi still didn’t like wasting energy on ordinary skills.

In the past, he was just a gambler, but now, with the Skill Atlas and the Material Atlas guiding development, of course, he needed to have some ambitions.

[Name]: Desolate Ghost Frog King.

[Nature]: Super Energy Series.

[Bloodline Level]: Low rank King.

[Introduction]: Prefers to live in the cold swamp area, with souls teeming around their bodies. It is said that these souls are the remaining spirits of its prey.

…

“Um, abilities leaning towards the souls of the dead? That’s a win this round.”

Looking at the introduction of the Desolate Ghost Frog King, Bai Qi grinned. Same as the low-level kings, Jerry’s suppression of spirits of the dead was nearly excessive. Even if the power of the wild beasts outstrips ordinary pets, it would only require a bit more effort.

“Minions, pack up, prepare to set off.”

Bai Qi finished the last skewer in his hand, pointed forward, and said, “Target, Black Nightmare Swamp!”

“My lord, may I request to return to the Beast Control Space for a rest?”

The dark vine somewhat timidly swayed its colorful tentacles and said, “After fighting continuously with eleven Lord-level beasts, I’m really quite tired.”

“Tired?”

Bai Qi glanced at the high sun overhead and curled his lips.

Even if it’s just an excuse, find a better reason. With the Sun Wheel, the vine’s daytime endurance is in no way weaker Gamma.

When Bai Qi gave him a suspicious look, the dark vine finally revealed the truth.

“In fact, I once had a bit of a feud with this Desolate Ghost Frog King …”

“Tell the truth.”

“I, the body of the Spirit Devouring Vine, was almost eaten by the Desolate Ghost Frog King.”

“Tsk… Coincidentally, congratulations, your chance for revenge has arrived.”
