Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Indefinitely

Under Schuck’s reasonable planning, Bai Qi had managed to complete the remaining tasks in just three days, with a rather rich harvest.

[Material Name]: Golden Vine Thorn

[Material Level]: Mythical

[Material Introduction]: The hardest thorn on the Golden vine’s body, capable of effectively resisting physical and energy attacks, and causing damage to surrounding enemies.

…

Although he only got one piece of mythical level resource, Bai Qi still harvested a lot of epic-level resources. Once back at headquarters, he could definitely exchange for a batch of useful materials.

With the increase in the level of target ferocious beasts, Bai Qi no longer insisted on all tasks being handled by Cordyceps. Instead, all his pets were involved in a targeted way. Although there was no significant danger, the growth of the five pets was evident.

Level, basic attributes, skill proficiency.

The speed of improvement of all data was much higher than daily training.

“Hmm~ Real battle indeed promotes growth faster. I really need to come out for activities more often.”

After packing up, Bai Qi checked the time and said, “Let’s go to Taize Lake first, the teacher should be out now.”

…

At the shore of Taize Lake.

The cold wind that blew over Taize Lake became more severe, the frozen area began to spread outwards, and the living creatures nearby had to migrate.

As a result, cities affected such as Gusu City and Lingxi City dispatched their military forces to control the migration of creatures at Taize Lake, and at the same time declared the nearby area a restricted zone.

“The situation seems more serious than I thought.”

Bai Qi pulled down the Cowskin Snake from Beta’s neck and asked, “What exactly happened down there? I don’t believe you’re not aware.”

The Cowskin Snake opened its sleepy eyes and looked at Bai Qi bewilderedly. “What’s below? Is today’s lunch noodles? Cough, cough, just kidding.”

Under Bai Qi’s murderous gaze, the Cowskin Snake immediately adjusted its attitude and said, “I have been in deep sleep, I really don’t have a clear understanding. However, I remember that the Sword Emperor once fought a Demi-God here…”

“Demi-God? Isn’t the highest level just legendary?”

Bai Qi’s ears pricked up immediately, and he concentrated on what was coming next. The Cowskin Snake obviously appreciated Bai Qi’s attitude, raised his head, cleared his throat and slowly elaborated.

“This Demi-God…”

“Yes, yes.”

“I am not clear about it either.”

“Gamma, let’s have snake soup for lunch.”

“Cough cough, I remember now, legendary creatures can go further. They can possess some of the abilities of mythical creatures but cannot complete the transformation into mythical creatures, so they are called Demi-Gods.”

“You say it so easily, it wouldn’t be you making things up, would it?”

“How could it be, this is what I heard from many Emperors, it couldn’t be wrong.”

The Cowskin Snake straightened up, and just as he was about to show off, Bai Qi grabbed him and threw him back onto Beta’s body.

“Demi-God, my teacher is the strongest in the Federation, capable of killing legendary ferocious beasts in seconds. Maybe he is also a Demi-God?”

Bai Qi glanced at the heavily sealed Taize Lake and immediately requested Delta to land.

A white giant bear armored in mechanical gear rapidly came to a stop in front of Bai Qi. A middle-aged man wearing military uniform flipped down from the bear and saluted Bai Qi, “Mr. Bai Qi, I am Zhuge Yun, Defense Officer of Langya City Garrison. Nice to meet you.”

“Thank you.”

Bai Qi shook hands with Zhuge Yun, asked, “About your relationship with Wuhou Corporation…”

Zhuge Yun chuckled lightly, “I am the elder uncle of Zhuge Chen, but I don’t go back often. But I have heard plenty about you, Mr. Bai Qi.”

Saying that, Zhuge Xu patted the mechanical armour on the white bear and said, “Thanks to you, Mr. Bai Qi, the Arctic Ice Wolf Legion of Gusu City and Langya City’s Ice Bear Legion have a head start in equipping with rune mechanical armor and armament evolution. This has greatly relieved our pressure.”

“Has it been popularised among military forces already?”

Bai Qi was somewhat surprised. It was understandable that the rune mechanical armor had been popularised, but the armament evolution had only been announced a little over half a month ago. Had the Federation already popularised it?

“Correct.”

Zhuge Yun nodded, “The defense and attack capability of pets after armament evolution have significantly increased. Our two cities are just trying it out at the moment. Once enough combat data is collected, it will be fully popularised.”

Bai Qi understood, Chu has mentioned before that the Federation has been researching integration of mechanical creatures and flesh-bodied creatures. Most of them were exoskeleton-like armors similar to rune mechanical armor. They were also pilot projects in various places.

However, it seems that his armament evolution emerged victorious now.

“By the way, what’s the situation in Taize Lake now?”

Zhuge Chen sighed, “The cold hole on Taize Lake is still expanding, the range affected by the cold air is also growing. If this continues, we might have to relocate the nearby residents.”

“Is it already that serious? And my teacher, is he out yet?”

“Bai Chuanqi came out once and was the one who alerted the army, but then he went back in,”

Zhuge Yun remounted the Ice Paw Bear and said, “I’ll take you to the scene first. Judging by the time, Bai Chuanqi should be coming out soon.”

Bai Qi nodded and, riding on Delta, followed Zhuge Yun. The two began to chat while walking and quickly became acquainted.

“Hahaha… it’s truly Zhuge Chen’s good fortune to have a friend like you, Bai Qi. He was upset about the issue of talent awakening for a long time. Now, the Spirit-Control Orb, Rune Mechanical Armour, and Armament Evolution, your three inventions, were tailor-made for him. You’ve fulfilled a dream for him.”

Zhuge Yun laughed and said, “I’m a soldier, I don’t have the means that little Xu does. But if you ever come to Langya City, you can find me, I can surely help you out.”

“Then I’ll have to trouble Uncle Zhuge.”

Bai Qi nodded. The distance between Gusu City and Langya City wasn’t far. With Zhuge Yun’s help, he wouldn’t have to worry about information on his future wilderness trainings.

After all, even the missions published by the association, most of the intelligence is gathered from the troops.

Soon, the two arrived on the ice surface of Taize Lake.

As Zhuge Yun had mentioned, the hole on the ice surface had become even larger. The chill emanating from it was also increasingly biting. Delta was covered in a layer of thin ice armor just from a gust of cold wind. Bai Qi could not help but shiver and immediately summoned Gamma to wrap around himself.

“Ordinary people indeed cannot withstand this temperature.”

Bai Qi inhaled deeply. Even as a Fifth Stage Beast Master, he could barely endure it. Ordinary people would probably get frostbite at once.

“That’s right. If Bai Chuanqi can’t find a way to stop this, the Federation might have to consider deploying a core weapon.”

Zhuge Yun looked helpless. Although the core weapon could prevent the anomaly in Taize Lake from continuing, the Taize Lake ecosystem would be completely destroyed after that. The few nearby cities would also be significantly affected, so they didn’t want to resort to this method unless absolutely necessary.

“Has it come to this point?”

Bai Qi’s eyes hardened. As a mechanical martial artist, he naturally knew the destructive power of a core weapon. This annihilation weapon that could completely change a place’s geography was going to be used here?

“Commander, the spread of the hole on the ice surface has suddenly stopped!”

At this moment, a soldier suddenly ran to Zhuge Yun and reported loudly.

“It stopped?”

Zhuge Yun’s eyes brightened. The impact of the Taize Lake anomaly was currently under their control. The halt of its spread at this moment was, of course, the best outcome.

Hearing the soldier’s words, Bai Qi immediately leaned in and noticed that the cracks on the ice had gradually disappeared, no longer spreading.

Even more, a thin layer of frost gradually formed on the surface of the lake that had been exposed and was gradually spreading towards the center.

“It’s not just stopping its spread, is it about to return to its original state?”

Bai Qi was somewhat surprised. With this sudden occurrence, had the teacher found the source of the problem?

Compared to when it was spreading, the rate at which the ice layer was gathering was much faster. In just a few short minutes, it had returned to how it was when Bai Qi left.

Eventually, just as the ice was about to fully return to its original state, the Jiuyou Darkbird broke through the ice surface and soared into the sky, landing beside Bai Qi after a whirl in the sky.

Bai Heguang looked somewhat tired. After glancing at Bai Qi, he said, “Have you completed your task?”

“Yeah, twenty Lord-level ferocious beasts and five King-level ferocious beasts have all been hunted.”

Bai Qi nodded, “Teacher, how about you rest for a while first?”

“No need, the seal under Taize Lake was damaged, I need to contact the headquarters and the Thirteenth Bureau immediately.”

Bai Heguang shook his head and looked at Zhuge Yun by his side, “Commander Zhuge, please notify the other troops to consider the area within a hundred kilometers from here as a restricted area. It would be best if the Snare keeps a close watch and does not allow any irrelevant people to approach.”

“Yes!”

Zhuge Yun immediately stood up straight upon hearing the order and saluted Bai Heguang before turning to leave. The soldiers around also immediately became busy, starting to set up various instruments.

“Teacher, what exactly is under Taize Lake?”

Bai Qi also perceived the severity of the situation and couldn’t help but ask.

“I’m not clear about what exactly it is, but the thing behind the seal could be the reason why Taize Lake has turned into this state. We cannot recklessly release it without absolute certainty.”

Bai Heguang glanced at the ice layer under his feet, “Right, where are those Beast Soul Warriors you mentioned earlier?”

“I had some Beast Masters from Langya City sent them back, and I’ve also reported to the association. They should be at the Langya City Association by now.”

“I see.”

Bai Heguang nodded, tapped the Jiuyou Darkbird, and Jiuyou Darkbird immediately took to the skies.

“You go back first. Wait for me to return and I’ll arrange your next stage of tasks.”

After saying this, the Jiuyou Darkbird, carrying Bai Heguang, headed towards Langya City.

“Although they say that with greater power comes greater responsibility, even a Titled Legendary like the teacher is too busy. It’s almost like 007.”

Bai Qi couldn’t help but complain, hoping it won’t turn into a teacher’s inheritance. He wasn’t interested in being this busy.
