Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Indefinitely

The Jiuyou Darkbird descended from the sky, and Bai Qi, who had been waiting for a while, immediately hurried over, saying, “Master, you have arrived.”

Bai Heguang nodded his head, and looking at the hole that was gradually enlarging below, he said, “Tell me about it. What’s happening?”

Upon hearing this, Bai Qi immediately detailed what had happened from his encounter with the Beast Soul Warrior to his arrival at Taize Lake, and how he discovered the cowskin snake, to Bai Heguang.

“Reptile?”

Bai Qi cast his gaze towards the cowskin snake, the Jiuyou Darkbird took interest and moved forward to inspect.

“Why do you gaze upon me so, even though I am…?”

The cowskin snake seemed to have no acknowledgment of Jiuyou Darkbird’s legendary status, and arrogantly assumed its usual haughty demeanour. However, as soon as it raised its head, it was pushed back down by Beta’s claw.

“Nothing special to discern, from soul to flesh everything seems ordinary. However, its ability to speak is quite interesting.”

The Jiuyou Darkbird’s eyes flickered with fire, seeing through the cowskin snake in the blink of an eye.

“However, the changes in Taize Lake should have nothing to do with him, there must be something else.”

Upon hearing this, Bai Heguang lost interest in the cowskin snake and began to investigate the ice lake instead.

Although it was rare, Bai Heguang’s rich experience included encounters with pet beasts like the cowskin snake, which, despite their weak power, could speak human language. Therefore, his focus was more on issuing the situation of Taize Lake.

“You continue practicing, I’ll handle this.”

Bai Heguang took a deep look at the dark water under the hole, saying, “Alpha’s training will be paused for now, I’ll speak of the subsequent arrangements when I get back.”

After saying this, Bai Heguang rode the Jiuyou Darkbird directly into the lake.

“As always, the Master’s efficiency is unparalleled…”

Looking at Bai Heguang who had completely disappeared into the lake, Bai Qi couldn’t help but purse his lips. It seemed that his master’s rare holiday had been interrupted by him.

However, the master was a Titled Legendary, so there shouldn’t be any issues, right?

Bai Qi tightened his collar and rode Delta back to the lakeside.

Influenced by the cold wind from the hole, the temperature near Taize Lake has dropped a lot. However, the creatures living here preferred low temperatures, which made them more active.

Bai Qi found an empty spot to land, and then eagerly summoned Alpha.

After a week of private training with the master, it was uncertain as to how Alpha has changed.

With the flicker of runes, Alpha’s tall figure appeared before Bai Qi. As soon as it appeared, Bai Qi felt a sharp aura rushing toward him, as if what stood before him was not a skeleton, but a sharp sword.

“Wow, is this the unity of man and sword… No, the unity of bone and sword?”

Bai Qi looked somewhat astonished at Alpha. Despite its unchanging level, its aura had transformed completely, something he hadn’t expected.

“Alpha, what have you been training this week?”

Clatter, clatter.

(Fighting.)

“Eh? I feel like you’ve gone back to your former silent self, Alpha. You haven’t been beaten into silence, have you?”

Bai Qi scratched his head in frustration and looked at Schuck, saying, “Schuck, where is the strongest King Ferocious Beast in the mission?”

Schuck quickly found the data on the giant tortoise, saying, “It should be the tortoise living in Dangwu Mountain. The information suggests that it’s close to reaching the sixth stage.”

“Well then, let’s go find the tortoise for a practice match.”

Bai Qi nodded, and the party of five quickly moved toward the target as guided by the map.

“Don’t forget about me too!!!”

…

Dangwu Mountain.

The abundant red maple leaves almost covered the whole of Dangwu Mountain in deep autumn, making it resemble a red dragon nesting from afar.

In the depths of Dangwu Mountain, a massive black tortoise was resting cozily at the base of a mountain peak. Every occasional movement of it would cause the neighboring peak to tremble violently.

[Name]: Mountain-Back-Turtle

[Nature]: Ground System

[Bloodline Level]: Mid-Level King

[Introduction]: Lone creature, prefers living in large mountains, possesses extremely strong defenses, a simple movement can affect surrounding mountain ranges.

…

“This must be the place.”

Looking at the shaking mountain not far away, Bai Qi immediately determined the location of their target. He sped up and quickly arrived at the Mountain-Back-Turtle’s location.

At this moment, the Mountain-Back-Turtle also noticed the approach of Bai Qi and the others. The pleasant demeanor that it had had disappeared as a vicious aura gushed out from it directly at Bai Qi.

As one of the few solitary beings among the King-level creatures, the Mountain-Back-Turtle’s strength was self-evident. Whether it was its horrifying power or its impenetrable defense, it could make countless enemies despair.

Awooo…

(Such a gigantic turtle…)

Beta stared blankly at the looming, mountain-like mountain turtle in front of him, his mouth agape. On the other hand, the Cowskin Snake wore an look of disdain and said:”This is big? Back then, the colossal turtle that I accompanied the Emperor to hunt was truly massive. This one doesn’t even compare to its young.”

Awoo!

(Can you shut your mouth, you stinking snake?)

Seeing this, Beta immediately snapped out of it and instinctively raised his claw. However, the Cowskin Snake seemed to have anticipated Beta’s moves, skillfully slithering past Beta’s tail and biting down. Beta was suddenly so pain-stricken that he sprang from the spot and began to dart around the trees erratically.

“These two guys… are definitely getting along well…”

Watching the humorous duo of the wolf and snake, Bai Qi couldn’t help but smile. Then, he felt the ground shake under his feet. The Mountain Turtle, originally lying on the ground, was now standing upright.

The Mountain Turtle didn’t appear much taller after standing upright, but the oppressive feeling it gave off spiked as if a massive mountain was drawing nearer to them.

“Alpha, it’s your turn.”

Bai Qi patted Alpha who nodded, then took the Sword of Death from his back, vanishing on the spot almost instantly.

“Holy cow, how did Alpha get faster?”

Witnessing Alpha who was now atop the Mountain Turtle’s head in a blink, Bai Qi was stunned.

“Delta, did you catch Alpha’s movement?”

Blub blub.

(I only saw a small trace. It seemed as if Alpha sliced through the air in front of him, not impeding his movements at all.)

Delta shook his head. As the only hexagon warrior in the team, his speed was naturally not too lackluster. If even Delta didn’t see clearly, it would probably be quite challenging for their opponents.

Alpha’s movements obviously took the Mountain Turtle by surprise, but it showed no significant reaction.

It had already devoured countless fast enemies like this.

Once this guy got injured by its counter-attack, it would be at its mercy.

Awoo!!!

The Mountain Turtle, which had previously been slowly twisting its body, suddenly let out a sound of agony. A long, narrow fissure appeared on its formerly sturdy shell.

“Is this, the Sword of the Wind Chaser?”

Bai Qi gazed intently, and was startled to see that Alpha’s other hand was also gripping a sword. He immediately understood.

Hidden under the Pursuing Wind Barrier, the Sword of the Wind Chaser had become an invisible, yet extraordinarily sharp weapon.

Seeing that its prided defense strength was so easily broken by Alpha, the Mountain Turtle became serious. It bellowed in rage and despite the difficulty, launched a rock at Alpha with the force of a cannonball. However, it was instantly disintegrated into tiny debris before reaching Alpha, which then fell to the ground with a gust of wind.

At the same time, Alpha mercilessly swung the Sword of Death in his hand. Black sword Qi followed the wound inflicted by Sword of the Wind Chaser and unobstructedly burrowed into the Mountain Turtle’s body.

Boom boom boom…

The entrance of the Power of Death finally put the Mountain Turtle in a state of heightened alert, as it quickly receded into its shell. Simultaneously, a wave of earthy-yellow energy expanded outwards, wherever it covered was solidified, even the Sword Qi of Death that had penetrated into the Mountain Turtle’s body was ousted.

Upon seeing this, Alpha showed no signs of panic, nor did he show any plans to activate his Death Force Field. He swung the Sword of Death lightly in the air with his right hand, several black lines appeared in the air, slowly forming a unique Array.

“Is this, a Rune Structure? Why haven’t I seen it before?”

Seeing Alpha’s actions, Bai Qi was curious. Meanwhile, Alpha’s rune array was fully formed and the Sword of Death was plunged directly into the core of the Array.

At once, sword Qi erupted, countless black sword Qi sprung from the Array, disregarding the solidifying effect of the Mountain Turtle’s force field and landing on its carapace.

There was no tremendous movement. Places where the Mountain Turtle was hit by the Sword Qi of Death fell off like chalk, revealing the Mountain Turtle’s body inside.

“Damn, is that a Sword Rune? Alpha, you figured it out by yourself?”

Crack crack.

(That’s correct.)

Alpha nodded. He glanced at the utterly terrified Mountain Turtle in front of him, then swapped back for the Sword of the Wind Chaser. The invisible sword blade kept slicing through the flesh of the Mountain Turtle, waiting for its defense to completely collapse, before beheading it with a single stroke.

“Damn… this efficiency, quite impressive.”

Bai Qi saw Alpha’s action and nodded approvingly. Even though the Mountain turtle was still fifth stage, it was still a Mid-Level King. Unexpectedly, Alpha was able to deal with it without using a Force Field. This combat power absolutely dominates those of the same stage.

“However, Alpha, what’s up with that Sword Rune?”

Crack crack.

(I learned it from Jiuyou Darkbird. It’s an application of the Power of Death. But Jiuyou Darkbird transformed it into Netherworld Fire, and I turned it into runes.)

Bai Qi understood. Indeed, the master’s Jiuyou Darkbird has never used the Power of Death directly in combat like Alpha. Compared with it, Alpha’s previous way of fighting was indeed a bit crude.

Simply put, what Alpha did before was like a nouveau riche throwing money at people. But now, he’s replacing that money with other things to whip people, much more effectively.

“Very good. So you didn’t waste your time practicing before.”

Bai Qi patted Alpha satisfactorily, eyes on the massive corpse of the Mountain Turtle in front of him, and said: “Hurry up and deal with this, then go find the next target.”

Even the strongest Mountain Turtle was dealt with, isn’t the rest of the beast pets a piece of cake?

Quickly finish the mission, and then go to the master to see what actually happened at Taize Lake.
