Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Indefinitely-Chapter 377 - 373: Too Much!

Chapter 377: Chapter 373: Too Much!

With a flash of a purple array, a blue-gold beetle appeared on the battlefield.

“Just one pet beast?”

Xiao Yuan furrowed his brows upon seeing this, although he acknowledged Bai Qi’s strength. But his perspective on Gu Shan now should not be the same as it was three months ago.

Emerald Vine Serpent, Gold Coated Cat, Great Waterfall Turtle, Volcano Sparrow, Scale Armor Beast, Flame-winged Snake, Yang Candle Spirit, Yin Ghost Spirit.

Under Bai Tongchen’s vigorous cultivation, the four low-level pet beasts that Gu Shan initially contracted were also trained to the lord level. Even though they were only low-level lords, they were paired with two high-grade lords – Yang Candle Spirit and Yin Ghost Spirit which Gu Shan contracted after advancing to the fourth stage.

A total of eight monsters of lord level, even if their growth levels were not high, the quantity was sufficient to allow Gu Shan to dominate his peers.

If one takes into account elemental resonance, even a fifth-stage beast master would not dare claim they can defeat the eight.

Unless, the one entering the battlefield was of a king-level?

Xiao Yuan subconsciously glanced at the bug grass hovering in the air. This unseen pet beast must be Bai Qi’s fifth pet.

Although it was normal for a fifth-stage beastmaster to contract a king-level beast, to his knowledge, Bai Qi already had two king-level creatures. Contracting another seemed a bit unrealistic.

He should still warn Bai Qi.

Thinking this, Xiao Yuan intended to advise Bai Qi not to be too overconfident. However, he froze when he heard Bai Qi begin to introduce his pet beast.

“Bai Qi, fifth-stage beast master, I appreciate your guidance. My pet beast is the king-level Great Sun Dragon Cicada.”

Hearing Bai Qi’s words, Gu Shan, who was exuding confidence just moments ago, stiffened, and the expressions of the onlookers were ones of astonishment.

“Bai Qi, you contracted another king-level beast?! Aren’t you afraid you won’t be able to cultivate it?”

Zhou Yan asked loudly. Everyone knew the advantage of high-level bloodlines, and most beast masters continued to choose high-bloodline pet beasts to contract with as their own levels increased.

For instance, after Li Mu reached the fifth stage, he chose to contract with the king-level ancient breed Fossil Thorn Dragon.

However, for someone like Bai Qi, who already had two powerful king-level beasts and chose to contract with another king-level creature, even possessing plenty of resources, it could easily lead to a dispersion of combat strength.

“A word of advice, don’t view this guy with the same lens as normal people. A person who can cultivate a low-level servant into a king-level creature, are you sure you should be concerned about whether he can handle the cultivation?”

Lu Qing adjusted his glasses, his gaze firmly fixed on the bug grass. “Four core patents, let alone three, I wouldn’t be surprised if Bai Qi cultivated all his pet beasts into king-level ones.”

“Er, Qing’er, has anyone ever told you that you’re acting like a star-struck fan now?”

Zhou Yan scratched his head, throwing out this remark out of the blue.

“A fan? I guess I can begrudgingly accept that.”

Lu Qing glanced at Zhou Yan, surprisingly not disputing but actually acknowledging Zhou Yan’s point.

Slap!

“Yan Jie, why did you hit me!”

Bai Yuxiao rubbed her face, looking confused as she angrily questioned Zhou Yan.

“Does it hurt? Seems like I’m not dreaming.”

Zhou Yan’s expression was dazed, as if she hadn’t yet snapped back from Lu Qing’s response. Meanwhile, there was now movement on the battlefield.

Gu Shan stared at the small bug opposite him, which was not even as large as his pet beast’s fingernail, still finding it hard to associate it with a king-level creature.

“Um, can we begin? I would like to pay a visit to the Holy Relic Tower.”

Bai Qi looked at the absent-minded Gu Shan and couldn’t help but interrupt his thoughts.

“Uh, let’s begin.”

Gu Shan was jolted awake and nodded.

The competition, began.

With the agreement of the two, the environment of the battlefield suddenly transformed, directly switching to a vast grassland. The rich power of nature continuously flowed into the bug grass, making it increasingly lively.

“Master, this place is so comfortable, it feels as if I’ve returned to my mother’s embrace.”

Bai Qi gave a faint smile, “Since you have now integrated the Green Dragon bloodline, you should feel closer to the power of nature.”

The power of the Great Sun and the power of nature, it seemed like the bug grass might independently perform photosynthesis in the future.

How very enviable~

Boom!

Just as Bai Qi and the bug grass were discussing the changes when a pillar of fire suddenly flew past the bug grass’s body. The bug grass then remembered its current predicament and began studying its opponent.

At this time, Gu Shan’s eight pet beasts had already arranged their formation. The Scale Armor Beast was in the center while the Emerald Vine Serpent, Gold Coated Cat, Great Waterfall Turtle, and Volcano Sparrow occupied the four corners. The Flame-winged Snake was hovering above, while the Yang Candle Spirit and Yin Ghost Spirit contracted later, roamed on the sides. ƒreewebɳovel.com

…

Facing a king-level creature, Gu Shan didn’t show the slightest carelessness. He ordered his eight pets to prepare for elemental resonance right away. However, in order to demonstrate his strength, Gu Shan didn’t use a surprise attack but instead, warned Chong Cao in advance.

“Having stayed in the Tower of Competition for so long, why are you still so rigid?”

Bai Qi shook his head upon seeing this, but still didn’t make Chong Cao attack first. Instead, it was Gu Shan who, seeing that Chong Cao didn’t move, no longer waited and launched an attack.

In an instant, the eight beasts roared in unison.

Being a high-grade lord, Yang Zhu Ling didn’t rush to attack, but released several fires onto the other pets, dramatically increasing the momentum of the eight pets.

Before the end of Yang Zhu Ling’s skill, Yin You Ling also took action. A shadowy energy, akin to a light veil, covering its companions. The veil seemed soft, but it gave a feeling of being hard to break.

“Increased attack, increased defense. Not preferentially choosing offensive pets suggests that perhaps this is Tower Master Bai’s suggestion,” Xiao Yuan nodded, saying.

“Yes, dad said that although Gu Shan’s early pets are low-level, they have good attributes. When they are paired with auxiliary pets, the effect will be even better,” responded Bai Yuxiao.

“Ever since Gu Shan contracted these two pets, I’ve never seen him lose in a group fight of the same level.”

“Beastmasters with enhanced talents from the Beast Control Space always have the upper hand in large-scale battles, not to mention that Gu Shan also has elemental resonance talent,” Zhou Yan showed a hint of satisfaction at Gu Shan’s performance.

“I wonder how Bai Qi will respond? Great Sun Dragon Cicada. It seems there’s no such creature in the compendium.”

Xiao Yuan mused to himself, turning his attention back to Bai Qi.

After receiving dual enhancements from Yang Zhu Ling and Yin You Ling’s pets, the eight pets’ aura rose again, their surging energy overwhelming, even influencing the surrounding grassland.

Boom!

Without a hint of warning, the Flame-winged Snake attacked Chong Cao.

It was a pillar of fire, but compared to the friendly warning beforehand, there was a world of difference.

The sturdy pillar of fire, reminiscent of a volcanic eruption, tore through the grassland. The sudden burst of terrifying speed completely cut off Chong Cao’s chance to evade, completely enveloping it.

However, even though his attack was successful, Gu Shan didn’t let down his guard. The Scale Armor Beast, Liujin Cat, Great Waterfall Turtle, and Volcano Bird all released their energy simultaneously, forming a gigantic energy orb of ever-changing color under the guidance of the Scale Armor Beast.

Elemental Annihilation Orb.

After integrating the energy attributes of the five elements- Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth- from five pets, and benefiting from the drastic effects of elemental resonance, Gu Shan’s attack was sufficient to ignore attacks from the majority of attributes.

Including king-level creatures.

After all, he had already tried it.

Gazing at Chong Cao, who still hadn’t left the range of the fire pillar’s attack, a light flashed in Gu Shan’s eyes and he ordered the Flame-winged Snake to increase its attack strength. The Yang Zhu Ling and Yin You Ling, who were initially just lingering in the air, also joined the battle. The two forces of contrasting attributes were controlled by Gu Shan to combine and flow into the Flame-winged Snake’s flame.

With the assistance of the two high-grade lords, the Flame-winged Snake’s fire pillar attribute gradually began to change.

Half of it was a solar flame, burning everything like the sun.

The other half was a lunar flame, stagnating everything like the moon.

The two effects were starkly different yet possessed a high-temperature flame that burned at the same time. Even king-level creatures couldn’t easily withstand it.

The fire pillar was fiercely burning, as if it would never extinguish. But after waiting for a long time, Chong Cao didn’t escape, making Gu Shan, who was brimming with confidence, feel some doubts.

But just as this happened, the Elemental Annihilation Orb finished forming. The initially intertwined energy had turned into a throbbing black color, as if it were devouring everything in sight.

This battle is a sure win!

Seeing his killing move, the usually expressionless Gu Shan couldn’t help but show a smile.

If he could surpass his level and defeat Bai Qi, even if it was by outnumbering, all the frustration from being previously suppressed by Bai Qi would be offset!

“Flame-winged Snake, Yang Zhu Ling, Yin You Ling, disperse!”

Gu Shan carefully controlled the Elemental Annihilation Orb and pulled back the three pets that were clinging to Chong Cao.

As the fire pillar dispersed, it revealed a blue-gold figure — the unharmed Chong Cao.

“As expected, even in the face of attributes that counter its own, a King-level creature can remain unscathed?”

Gu Shan whispered to himself, without an ounce of panic. With a slight wave of his right hand, Yang Zhu Ling and Yin You Ling lightly pushed the Elemental Annihilation Orb. The orb, capable of annihilating anything, floated out.

It seemed fast, yet slow. It seemed to move forward, and yet seemed to recede, a manipulation so tricky that Chong Cao couldn’t dodge it. Unbeknownst to anyone, it was directly hit by the Elemental Annihilation Orb and, without even a squeal, vanished within the power sphere.

“What…”

Outside the battleground, Xiao Yuan and others looked at each other, visibly struggling to believe what was happening on the battlefield.

“Isn’t Gu Shan being a bit too excessive?”

“I think so too. Even though he’s been losing to Bai Qi, he shouldn’t go this far, right?”

“Well, it seems the psychological shadow Bai Qi cast on Gu Shan before was too significant.”

“It must be. Let’s plan to find a psychologist for Gu Shan later. No matter how much you slack off, you can’t fall asleep during a battle!”
