Chapter 182: Chapter 181: Life in the Primordial Era
Translator: 549690339
After Husky’s and Alpha’s fight was over, Bai Qi held a series of tests for the three pets. Then, he let them do their own things.
As for Schuck, he naturally continued to study the mechanical manual. Meanwhile, Beta, whose heart was in unison with the others’, was mumbling something.
Gamma, who had just used the Golden Cicada Shelling, was nearly depleted of energy. He was very hungry and ran off somewhere to find something to eat.
As for Alpha, although he usually trained alone, this time he brought along the six little brothers he had just taken in to train.
“I wonder how these six skeletons are doing.”
Bai Qi paused before finally heading in Alpha’s direction.
Feeling Bai Qi’s approach, Alpha immediately stopped his exercises. The six skeletons also halted at once, their actions mirroring Alpha’s in an almost synchronous manner, like shadows.
“Alpha, how are they doing now?”
Gurgle, gurgle.
(Not bad, both levels are slowly increasing.)
Bai Qi nodded. Ever since the six skeletons were contracted by Alpha, they had instantly upgraded their race level. However, they were still gradually improving, which satisfied Bai Qi.
Having six obedient pets that could gradually level up without having to take care of them, there was no reason for him not to take advantage of this.
Still, Bai Qi knew that these skeletons must have been able to slowly absorb the energy Alpha had dispersed because the gap between them was so vast. They probably wouldn’t be able to do this much longer.
Unless Alpha widened the gap further with these skeletons quickly, they might get another chance to level up.
Thinking this, Bai Qi concentrated his spiritual power on one of the skeletons and received its data.
[Name]: Golden Armor Corpse
[Nature]: Steel Apartment, Undead Department
[Bloodline Level]: Low-level Elite
[Growth Level]: First Stage Eighth Level
[Racial Skills]: Steel Armor, Ripping Claw, Savage Charge
The name ‘ Golden Armor Corpse1 was the new name Bai Qi had given to the evolved form of the Steel Skull. The other five skeletons had similar names.
Poison breath – Wood Armor Corpse.
Ice bone – Water Armor Corpse.
Fire claw – Fire Armor Corpse.
Rock armor – Earth Armor Corpse.
Hidden sting – Dark Armor Dead Body.
After completing the evolution of all six skeletons, the name Six Corpse inexplicably popped into Bai Qi’s head, so he simply used it.
As for the Dark Armor Corpse, it was named simply to maintain formation.
Unfortunately, light-element material and undead nature don’t go well together, otherwise, Bai Qi was planning to complete the Yin-Yang Five Corpses.
But now it’s not bad, especially from a certain perspective. The full name of Alpha Wilting Dragon Lord is now fulfilled.
As a lord, he must have some subordinates, right?
It’s unknown whether the Six Corpses can continue the contract as Alpha does. If they can, pull one to ten, ten to a hundred…
As long as the contracts continue to be signed, could he not directly form an Undead Corps, with Alpha as the Undead King?
As for him, he would naturally become the man …erm, man behind the Undead King?
He feels quite good just thinking about it!
Bai Qi wiped away the saliva from the corner of his mouth, told Alpha to always pay attention to the situation of the Six Corpse, and then went back to his room.
As soon as he landed, Bai Qi noticed a few more people in his room. It was none other than Bai Heguang, Luo Xiang, and Chun Yushui.
“What’s up?”
Being stared at by three big men, and three men he couldn’t beat at that, Bai Qi couldn’t help feeling a shiver run down his spine. He thought for a while but could only squeeze out a single sentence.
Bai Heguang’s eyes were cold as they swept over Bai Qi. “I sensed the power of death in your room just now. Was it from your pet?” he said.
“Uh, yes.”
Bai Qi nodded, but in his heart, he was full of disdain.
Why do Bai Heguang and Luo Xiang, like dogs, have noses so sensitive? Does every high-stage Beast Master have a dog’s nose?
What about when they go to the bathroom?
Hearing Bai Qi’s confirmation, Bai Heguang scowled. “Summon it to let me see.”
Bai Qi was startled by the words, but still obediently summoned Alpha from the secret realm.
But there was more.
Six Corpses.
At this moment, the Six Corpses were surrounding Alpha, each having a palm on its forehead, ad the other ends of the palms were Alpha.
Alpha sensed the change in his surroundings immediately, especially the other breaths around him, and instinctively entered a combative state. The Six Corpses also all started to move.
“What is this? I’ve never seen it before.”
Spotting the array of Six Corpse around Alpha, Luo Xiang was immediately intrigued, looked up and down, but couldn’t figure out a matching creature.
“The designs certainly resemble others, but I think these are entirely new types of evolution.”
Bai Heguang was indeed a Titled Legendary Undead, he straightway judged the peculiarity of the Six Corpse. Even so, Bai Heguang did not further inquire about the Six Corpse’s origins but instead turned his attention towards Alpha’s Withering Sword.
Bai Heguang leaned close to the Withering Sword, attentively sensed it, and then summoned the Jiuyou Darkbird, asking,” Jiuyou, does it look the same as yours?”
The Jiuyou Darkbird landed on the Withering Sword, gently pecked at it, and said, “Correct, it has also absorbed the Power of Death, and it’s even more stable than when I first did.”
“Also? Bai Chuanqi, you also absorbed the Blood of Death?”
Bai Qi’s ears moved as he quickly perceived the hidden meaning in the Jiuyou Darkbird’s words.
Bai Heguang nodded and before he had a chance to speak, the Jiuyou Darkbird stepped in saying, “Absorb? You’ re lucky you weren’t consumed by that thing.”
Hearing the Jiuyou Darkbird’s words, Bai Qi awkwardly scratched his head.
If it hadn’t been for the Evolution Egg and the Green Dragon Scale, Alpha and Gamma might have indeed been devoured.
“But since you’ve absorbed it, it’s a blessing in disguise. Maybe this skeleton can evolve to the same level as me in the future.”
Perhaps due to the Power of Death, the Jiuyou Darkbird noticeably warmed up to both Alpha and Bai Qi and talked more. After circling around Alpha for a while, it quickly noticed the Six Corpse with disparate attributes surrounding it.
“These things seem to have some mysterious connection with your pets, could it be that the modern skeletal creatures can reproduce themselves?”
Upon the Jiuyou Darkbird’s words, Bai Qi couldn’t suppress the twitch in his eye, while Luo Xiang retreated to the side to laugh.
“Jiuyou, enough.”
Bai Heguang interrupted the Jiuyou Darkbird’s words. Looking at Alpha, who stood before him completely transformed, he suddenly turned towards Bai Qi and asked, “Bai Qi, would you be my apprentice?”
“Apprentice?”
Upon hearing Bai Heguang’s words, Bai Qi froze momentarily, his usually agile mind suddenly turning stiff.
He hadn’t misheard, had he? The Titled Legendary Celestial Brilliance who had always been somewhat irritated with him was offering to take him as an apprentice?
“If you’re unwilling, forget it.”
Seeing that Bai Qi did not respond immediately, Bai Heguang was ready to drop the matter, but Bai Qi managed to recover just in time and nodded repeatedly.
“Willing, willing, disciple Bai Qi, meets Master.”
Although the association was open to all the Federation, that was only external. Internally, there were still different factions.
One faction was familial, led by the Bai Family and the Xiao Family, and the other faction was the master-apprentice system.
Although he was unclear why Bai Heguang suddenly wanted to take him as an apprentice, Bai Qi was gifted a free great pillar of support, moreover the strongest pillar in the Federation. If Bai Qi didn’t grasp this opportunity, he would indeed be a fool.
Seeing Bai Qi’s agreement, Bai Heguang finally nodded with satisfaction, but Chun Yushui suddenly spoke up, “Bai Chuanqi, is the Bai Family also moving towards the master-apprentice system?”
Bai Heguang responded lightly, “I am me, and the Bai Family is the Bai Family.”
Chun Yushui shrugged and said, “Indeed. Still, to witness Bai Chuanqi taking an apprentice, I can go brag about it.”
Bai Heguang said, “It’s just a student; there’s no need to show off so flamboyantly.”
Speaking, Bai Heguang turned to Bai Qi and said, “Although the Power of Death is somewhat similar, even stronger than the Shadow Department Power, there are still differences. If used incorrectly, it can be a double-edged sword.”
“You go back to your intensive training first. After I finish dealing with matters here, I’ll come and teach you how to control the Power of Death.”
So, it was because of the Power of Death. No wonder suddenly he wanted to take me as an apprentice.
Bai Qi understood Bai Heguang’s intentions, but he accepted it willingly.
Having a Titled Legendary as a teacher – he would be able to walk freely in the Federation from now on.
Oh right, also an apprehensive Legend Dragon as a pet.
Suddenly, he felt that he has strong backing.
“Er, master, can I ask about the Blood of Death just now?”
Just a slight touch had caused such radical changes in Alpha and Gamma. This Blood of Death must have an extraordinary origin.
Is it named blood because it’s from a powerful creature?
Perhaps because he had just accepted an apprentice, Bai Heguang exceptionally showed patience. He did not brush off the question but explained after choosing his words carefully, “You should know that this world’s history is divided into five stages, right?”
Bai Qi nodded. The experts of this world were quite dedicated. They had traced the world’s history back to before humans appeared and divided it into five eras.
The Primordial Era, Ancient Era, Middle Ancient Era, Recent Ancient Era, and the current Federation Era.
The era timeline of the Recent Ancient Era was clear, starting from the rise of the Emperor who established the first human country all the way until the Federation was formed, all belong to the Recent Ancient Era.
The Middle Ancient Era refers to the time when ferocious beasts dominated.
Humans were only slaves and food at that time, which is why the Middle Ancient Era is also known as the Ferocious Beast Era.
The Ancient Era was when ancient creatures were active. Creatures like the Original Beasts such as the saber-toothed tiger lived during the Ancient Era, so it is also known as Original Era.
The oldest era, the Primordial Era, leans more towards legends.
According to the latest data available from experts, living creatures in the Primordial Era only exist in legends now, such as phoenixes, angels, gods…
Judging by the grave importance Wei Chen and Bai Heguang gave to the Blood of Death, could this mean that the Blood of Death belonged to a creature from the Primordial era?
