Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Indefinitely-Chapter 721 - 716: The Twilight Tomb from a Thousand Years Ago
Chapter 721: Chapter 716: The Twilight Tomb from a Thousand Years Ago
“To replicate my memory and wisdom?”
Upon hearing this, the Law Emperor looked startled and said, “Can such a thing really be done?”
“Generally, it’s not possible. But, what if your Majesty’s memory was implanted into the soul of a ferocious beast, then transferred to a puppet using the Soul-Departing Curse? Wouldn’t that work?”
Hearing Bai Qi’s words, the Law Emperor fell into deep thought, but quickly shook his head and said, “Indeed, such a method might be feasible. However, the Soul-Departing Curse would erase all thoughts of the ferocious beast. Even if my memories were implanted, they would not work.”
“That seems true.”
Bai Qi narrowed his eyes slightly. His idea should have been correct, but the difficulty of implementing it was indeed high.
However, he was sure that the Law Emperor could find a way in the future.
If not, how were the Black and White created?
Considering the Law Emperor’s ability and the productive forces of this era, it was absolutely impossible to fabricate a puppet like Black and White, who possessed wisdom and could even design the Secret Realm Tower.
So the only explanation was that the Law Emperor might have actually done what he had just suggested.
Replicate the soul and create Black and White.
Upon his return, he must study Black and White thoroughly.
“However, this is indeed a good suggestion. Given the chance in the future, I will study it thoroughly.”
The Law Emperor grinned, looked at the Dual Sky Mech, and said, “The basic structure design has been completed. The next step is to find a sufficiently strong ferocious beast’s soul and energy.”
“Bai Qi, would you be interested in traveling to the Three Whites Tribe with me?”
Hearing the Law Emperor’s words, Bai Qi immediately understood and asked, “Your Majesty, are you planning to extract the souls of the legendary ferocious beasts of the Three Whites Tribe?”
The Law Emperor nodded and said, “The Three Whites Tribe is too close to Wuxian City. If it continues to be ignored, it will pose a great threat to Wuxian City’s defenses. It’s best to eliminate them.”
“About that… Your Majesty might not need to go.”
Bai Qi gave a shy smile and informed the Law Emperor of the fate of the Three Whites Tribe at Taize Lake.
“I see. That explains why the Three Whites Tribe has been so quiet lately. They were wiped out by you in advance.”
“I didn’t want to either, but they were the ones who started it.”
Bai Qi paused for a moment and said, “However, there’s one place that might solve all Your Majesty’s problems at once.”
“Twilight Tomb.”
“Twilight Tomb.”
Both said the answer simultaneously, then looked at each other and smiled.
…
Twilight Tomb.
“As expected, it’s quite different from the Undead Hill in the future era.”
Bai Qi, looking at the majestic city and the densely packed undead outside, remarked.
“Bai Qi, what were you saying just now?”
The Law Emperor, looking somewhat puzzled, turned to Bai Qi and asked.
“Nothing much, I was just saying that there sure are a lot of undead here.”
“Indeed, the Empire has attempted to completely clean up this place several times, but the undead of the Twilight Tomb seem endless. Also, with the legendary guardians inside, it becomes even more difficult to cleanse.”
The Law Emperor sighed and said, “Although the Ten Thousand Laws Empire is powerful now, we are still constrained by internal and external threats, without spare resources to focus on.”
Internal and external threats?
He understood the external threats. Ever since the First Emperor led mankind to break free from the control of the tribes and fought against them, the tribes had always been the greatest external threat to humans.
But these internal threats…
It seemed he could only mean the Church.
“The conflict between divine power and imperial power is indeed troublesome. Humans indeed need a faith. But as Beast Masters with strong abilities, why must we place our faith in the elusive gods?”
Bai Qi pondered, then spoke.
“I understand your point. But there are very few who awaken the Beast Master Talent and even fewer who have the ability to raise their pets.”
The Law Emperor sighed and said, “Moreover, the Holy Light Church possesses a myth inheritance. Their pets do indeed have an advantage over ordinary ones.”
“Myth inheritance… Your Majesty, are you referring to this?”
Upon hearing this, Bai Qi let out a grin and summoned Gamma.
“This… This is an angel? No, it seems there’s another attribute present?”
The Law Emperor raised an eyebrow, looking in surprise at Gamma’s strange appearance.
“Yes, this is my third pet, Gamma, who also possesses the Holy Light Attribute. As for the other attribute… please allow me to keep that a secret for now.”
Bai Qi paused and said, “In reality, with Your Majesty’s capabilities, you can fully cultivate a batch of exceptional Legendary Beast Masters and have mankind place their faith in these Beast Masters.”
“Mythical creatures have been extinct for thousands of years. Rather than believing in these elusive creatures, it is better to enhance one’s own strength.”
“To forge iron, you need to be tough yourself.”
After hearing Bai Qi’s words, the Law Emperor fell into brief silence. His eyes, which were previously full of hesitation, instantly became firm.
“Thank you, Bai Qi, for helping me make up my mind.”
The Law Emperor patted Bai Qi on the shoulder and said, “But first, let’s tidy up the Twilight Tomb. We’ve been out for so long that Enma should have noticed by now.”
“Good.”
Bai Qi gave an imperceptible nod, and then turned to Gamma.
“Gamma, these minions are yours.”
Kaboo, kaboo.
(No problem.)
Gamma nodded, the Gate of Heaven appeared in the air and fell to the ground like a firmament.
The undead creatures below were reduced to dust in an instant after being illuminated by the Holy Light and Thunderbolt emitted from the Gate of Heaven. The energy was absorbed by the Gate, expanding its range.
“Bai Qi, your pets are indeed well-trained. It’s hard to imagine that it’s just an Emperor Creature.”
Bai Qi couldn’t help but praise. Although he has attribute suppression, it is indeed rare to use an immortal-level skill so easily.
“Just good luck.”
Bai Qi responded modestly, while on the other side, Gamma was already controlling the Gate of Heaven and advancing towards the Twilight Tomb.
Unlike the bottom cannon fodder undead, the undead stationed on the city wall were obviously much stronger. Skeleton archers and undead mages used their long-range skills to try and break the Gate of Heaven. The summoners kept summoning new undead creatures, trying to disturb Gamma’s progress.

However, these attacks were completely in vain against the Gate of Heaven, they all turned into the purest energy which was fed back to Gamma.
Kaboo, kaboo.
(Master, Gamma is very full.)
“Then go all out. At this rate, the main guy will not appear.”
Upon hearing this, Bai Qi issued a new instruction. No matter how many of these minions there were, they were only feeding Gamma. They couldn’t even consume Gamma’s energy, and Gamma’s energy was now higher than before the battle.
Kaboo, kaboo!
(Gamma understands!)
Gamma nodded repeatedly, its body shook and split into four avatars. It also summoned the Gate of Heaven and launched an attack from the south, east, west, and north.
In an instant, The Twilight Tomb was completely surrounded by the Gate of Heaven. The Holy Light moved along the city walls like a white dragon, taking the lives of those undead.
The Tomb, which had been a problem for the Empire for many years, was easily cracked by Gamma’s surface defence.
However, it wasn’t long before the external defence mechanism of the Twilight Tomb was triggered. Black runes climbed all over the city wall, and the powerful shadow’s power isolated the Holy Light, preventing it from continuing to destroy the Twilight Tomb.
“It’s indeed a city built by the Great Witch Demon. This defensive rune system is exquisite.”
Seeing the Twilight Tomb activated its defence mechanism, the Law Emperor also joined the fight and summoned his main pet.
Legendary creature, Book of Ten Thousand Laws.
As soon as the Book of Ten Thousand Laws appeared, it released tens of thousands of runes. These runes seemed to have their own life-like characteristics and freely combined in the air, slowly forming a complex rune structure, then floated towards the Twilight Tomb.
The Twilight Tomb also launched a counterattack upon sensing the approach of the rune structure, sliming shadow bullets from the city wall, trying to shatter the Book of Ten Thousand Laws’ attack.
But the control of the Book of Ten Thousand Laws was shockingly powerful. It managed to avoid all attacks precisely by adjusting the rune structure.
In the end, the Book of Ten Thousand Laws controlled the rune structure and landed on the Twilight Tomb.
In an instant, both types of rune systems dissipated, and the Twilight Tomb that had looked grim and solemn instantly returned to normal.
At the same time, a stone gate opened to them, and it turned out to be the interior of the Twilight Tomb.
“This control… should I say it’s worthy of being the Law Emperor?”
Bai Qi couldn’t help but click his tongue at the sight. To counter runes with runes, not to mention others, the Law Emperor’s Book of Ten Thousand Laws had such a superb control of runes, enough to slaughter most of the legendary ferocious beasts.
It’s no wonder the Law Emperor can suppress the church and surrounding tribes on his own. His strength is indeed strong.
“Alright, let’s go in. They are already waiting for us inside.”
The Law Emperor withdrew the Book of Ten Thousand Laws and stepped on the runes to the Twilight Tomb. Bai Qi didn’t want to fall behind and put on his absurd mask, chasing him right away.
Through the gate, Bai Qi came to the familiar first level.
Unlike the desolate situation of future generations, the guardians of this first layer were obviously much more numerous.
Skeletons, zombies, lost souls, blood races…
All kinds of undead brandished their fine weapons and launched an attack on Bai Qi and the others, but they didn’t even manage to get close. Gamma had completely purified them.
But it was clear that the enemy also knew the strength of Bai Qi and his team. After consuming some soldiers, the guardian of this layer appeared before them.
A white-haired blood race, dressed in red armor, wielding a red lance.
“You dare disturb the sleep of the Dragon Witch Nidhogg. You deserve to die.”
The blood race glared at Bai Qi and the others with its bloody vertical pupils, issuing a death threat to them.
“A legendary Blood race? It’s a pity Li Xusheng isn’t here, otherwise he could compare his blood control ability with him.”
Bai Qi smacked his lips and then summoned Alpha.
As everyone knows, those who can be dragged out to guard the gate will not be weak.
“Alpha, be quick and decisive, but don’t underestimate the enemy.”
Kalala, kalala.
(I understand.)
Alpha nodded slightly, the Sword of Silent Annihilation pointed at the blood race. That blood race, upon feeling the aura on Alpha’s body, was surprised. There was a flash of excitement in the race’s eyes.
“The outside world still has such powerful undead. I must catch you and present you to Lord Nidhogg!”
