Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Infinitely

Chapter 607: Chapter 602: Your Idea is Very Dangerous…

Seeing Bai Qi hesitate, the Dragon Witch Ghoul didn’t rush, just quietly watching and waiting for Bai Qi’s reply.

After a long time, Bai Qi still reached out to accept the dragon horn. After releasing a trace of spirit power to examine it, he was stunned.

This dragon horn was surprisingly linked to a vast secret realm, filled with the pure power of the Shadow Department.

“He’s gifting me a secret realm right of the bat? Did he rip off a layer of the Twilight Tomb?”

Bai Qi clacked his tongue, without any hesitation, he pocketed it.

Alpha still didn’t have his specialized secret realm. With this, Alpha’s progression speed was sure to increase significantly.

“This secret realm is one of the cores of the Twilight Tomb, but it’s of no use to me now. Consider it down payment. When you have enough resources, you can help me with the restoration,”

The Dragon Witch Ghoul paused, then said, “Starting from today, I will temporarily seal the Twilight Tomb. No other creatures apart from you can enter, so remember to take that big cat with you when you leave.”

“The big cat… the Fire Rock Demon Tiger?”

At that revelation, Bai Qi saw that the Dragon Witch Ghoul was trying to expel him. He quickly took out the teleportation rune stone of the fifth level. As expected, it reestablished its connection immediately.

“Then, I’ll end our discussion here. I hope to see you again soon.”

The Dragon Witch Ghoul’s figure then flickered for a moment before turning into a dark mist and dissipating back to the bottom.

“Damn it!”

Seeing the Dragon Witch Ghoul withdraw, Nicholas shouted out a warning, startling Bai Qi to the point where he nearly dropped the dragon horn.

“What’s wrong? Was this an illusion?”

Bai Qi gave voice to his doubts—it sounded too good to be true. He came across a formidable enemy without a fight and even received some benefits. It all felt like an illusion.

“It’s an illusion… no, it’s not an illusion… damn it, it was not an illusion! Everything you saw was real. But that Dragon Witch Ghoul wasn’t physical. It was only a projection—its strength probably isn’t even as great as Beta’s.”

Whoo-ooh?

(Just what do you mean, you impudent Dragon?)

Nicholas regretfully said, “What a pity. If I had attacked just now, I might have been able to keep that Dragon Witch Ghoul here.”

Bai Qi: “…”

What happened to being cautious? How did it suddenly evolve into battling the Dragon?

“Let’s drop it. After all, we’re in his turf. We can’t afford to be reckless.”

Bai Qi shook his head. He looked at the seemingly endless pit for a moment before saying,”Let’s go—first to the fifth level to find the Fire Rock Demon Tiger, then we better leave early.”

Since the Dragon Witch Ghoul had made his intentions clear, the Fire Rock Demon Tiger obviously wouldn’t be able to stay there any longer. It was a good chance to coax him outside. If he could persuade him to go to the headquarters, he could ask President Zhao for resources again.

…

On the fifth level.

The Fire Rock Demon Tiger, who was already aware of the secret realm’s anomaly, fell deep into thought after hearing Bai Qi’s narration.

“The Law Emperor didn’t inform me of the situation behind us but considering I have control over the first five levels, the Law Emperor might have joined while helping that Dragon Witch Ghoul repair the secret realm.”

The Fire Rock Demon Tiger paused for a moment, then said, “I can now feel that my control over the secret realm is gradually fading. The humans exploring the first two levels have all been expelled. It seems that the Dragon Witch Ghoul is reclaiming control of the Twilight Tomb.”

“It should be so.”

Bai Qi nodded, saying, “So, sir, how about you join me and leave this place? I can arrange for you to go to the Beast Master Association’s headquarters. There are many legendary creatures like you there.”

“Oh, and the Ice Spirit Jade Rabbit from the sixth level is now at the headquarters. You can continue to be neighbors.”

“The Beast Master Association’s headquarters? Nevermind, that’s too troublesome. Just randomly arrange somewhere for me to stay. I’m too lazy to move.”

The Fire Rock Demon Tiger yawned, tapped the ground, and teleported everyone outside the Twilight Tomb.

…

Because of the change in the Twilight Tomb, a large number of young Beast Masters were expelled. They gathered together, discussing today’s situation.

“Damn it, I didn’t pick up one of my materials!”

“Ha~Can I say that I didn’t pick up two of mine?”

“Trash! I was almost castrated by an undead creature. The teleportation timing was impeccable!”

“2333… It serves you right.”

“Stop yammering. With so many of us teleported out, something must’ve happened in the Twilight Tomb. We’d better ask the person in charge of the Association.”

Finally, one clear-headed young man identified the crux of the matter. He went to ask the Association’s stationed personnel. But before he could get an answer, they saw a giant tiger, dozens of meters long and enveloped in flames, suddenly appear before them.

“There seems to be something monitoring me above my head. Is it an enemy?”

The Fire Rock Demon Tiger had just emerged when he sensed the Snare above his head and asked immediately.

“It’s not an enemy. It’s the Federation’s large mechanical life form, Snare.”

Bai Qi quickly explained, leading to the Fire Rock Demon Tiger’s sudden realization.

“It appears that humans have indeed become quite strong over the years.”

The Fire Rock Demon Tiger glanced over at the panicked but prepared young Beast Masters, nodding slightly in approval.

“Indeed, but it still falls short compared to the tribes.”

Bai Qi sighed, looking around before spotting the Association’s member. He then allowed the Fire Rock Demon Tiger to put him in front of them.

“President Bai, is that you?”

This member from the Association recognized Bai Qi right away and quickly greeted him respectfully.

“You know me?”

Bai Qi was somewhat surprised, he had been running around since returning to Gusu City and hadn’t formally assumed his position, yet surprisingly people here already knew him.

“Of course I know you, I was the one who helped train your main pet in the first place.”

Upon hearing this, Bai Qi finally remembered, saying, “Are you Lan Shao, the Beast Master of the Arctic Ice Wolf King?”

“That’s right, it’s me.”

Lan Shao nodded, then took a glance at the curious Flame Demon Tiger looking around behind Bai Qi, and whispered in a low voice: “President, why did you suddenly bring a legendary creature out? And it looks like everyone has been driven out of the Twilight Tomb?”

“Indeed, it is so.”

Bai Qi nodded, saying, “You take your people and disperse these Beast Masters, then isolate the area. The Twilight Tomb is temporarily closed to the public.”

“Closure? I’m afraid you’ll have to issue a city-wide announcement about that, President. It would be best to notify the surrounding cities as well.”

On hearing Bai Qi’s words, Lan Shao was somewhat helpless. The Twilight Tomb had become a practical training field for not only Gusu City but also several surrounding cities. If it were closed down, it would indeed impact a lot of things.

“What a hassle…”

Frowning, Bai Qi looked at the Flame Demon Tiger beside him, a plan forming in his mind, he turned to it and asked, “Senior, can you help?”

“Got it.”

The Flame Demon Tiger nodded its head, suddenly letting out a heaven-shaking roar. The terrifying pressure of the legendary creature instantly blasted the Beast Masters away.

“Holy shit! The legendary beast has gone mad!”

“Stop screaming and run!”

The Beast Masters fled in panic, and the once bustling Undead Hill was suddenly deserted.

“That’s settled.”

Bai Qi nodded in satisfaction, said, “I will have President Qin issue a notice explaining it later. For now, you just seal off the surrounding area.”

“Er, okay.”

Lan Shao nodded, his face clearly showing his amazement at Bai Qi’s straightforward and brutal way of solving the problem.

“Then, Senior Flame Demon Tiger, how about if I arrange for you to stay at one of my estates? Nobody goes there usually anyway.”

“That works for me. But the temperature should be high. The outside temperature is a bit low; it’s easy to catch a chill.”

“Low temperature? Catch a chill?”

Bai Qi quietly looked up at the sun above his head and closed his mouth.

It was already mid-May, and the temperature was quite high, but indeed, compared to the fifth level of the Steaming Hell, it was pretty cool.

“Alright, I’ll build a greenhouse for you.”

Bai Qi took out his phone and sent a message to Zhuge Chen, subsequently saying, “But I need some more time to organize it, why don’t you come with me to the Super God Evolution Research Institute for now, anyway, Nicholas stays there.”

Pointing to Nicholas, who had transformed into a humanoid form beside him, Bai Qi said.

“That’s fine, I can also check out the current state of humans.”

The Flame Demon Tiger did not refuse. After all, being a follower of the Law Emperor, it was still somewhat concerned about the safety of humans.

“Then let’s go.”

When the Flame Demon Tiger agreed, Bai Qi was overjoyed.

Although he wasn’t able to entice the Flame Demon Tiger to the headquarters in exchange for resources, it was equally great to have it stay at his place to guard the land.

To have a legendary creature as a door guard, who else could compete with that!

…

Super God Evolution Research Institute.

Bai Yan and Luo Zhu looked serious, they examined the Flame Demon Tiger, which had shrunk to the size of a cat and was now sleeping, and then looked at an innocent-faced Bai Qi. It took them a long while to ask, “Son, what have you been up to now?”

“This really isn’t my doing…”

Bai Qi filled in Bai Yan and Luo Zhu about sealing the Twilight Tomb, but kept the matter about the Dragon Witch Ghoul a secret.

Who knew if, after telling them about the Dragon Witch Ghoul, his parents would prevent him from approaching the secret realm again.

“So, because of the changes in the Twilight Tomb, this legendary creature became homeless, and you brought it back?”

Luo Zhu simply summed up Bai Qi’s explanation and asked, her voice full of doubt.

“Almost, that’s about it.”

Bai Qi kept nodding his head, looking obediently.

“Fine, I won’t bother you about it anymore, as long as you’re safe.”

Luo Zhu sighed, then picked up the Flame Demon Tiger, which had completely concealed its power, and there was a strange light flashing in her eyes.

“Who would have thought that I could be in such close contact with a legendary creature. Son, do you think the physical structure of a legendary creature is indeed different from other creatures?”

Listening to Luo Zhu’s words, Bai Qi’s eye twitched involuntarily.

“Mom… this idea of yours is pretty dangerous…”

Although his parents were sometimes fond of dissecting specimens, pondering on the idea of dissecting a legendary creature was a bit too wild.

However, it seems his teacher had mentioned that legendary creatures were a qualitative change of both the soul and body, which seemed worthy of research.

Hmm … if there’s a chance, let’s give it a try…
