Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Indefinitely-Chapter 477 - 472: Water Escape Evolution~ Sea Escape!
Chapter 477: Chapter 472: Water Escape Evolution~ Sea Escape!
“I understand.”
After listening to Bai Qi’s explanation, Bai Heguang nodded and relayed the information to Wang Chen and Xiao Mu, who had just arrived.
“The energy possession technique is indeed their family’s specialty, but this evidence isn’t enough.”
Xiao Mu pondered a bit and said, “My suggestion is to investigate further and take action when we have enough evidence.”
“Let’s leave this to the Thirteenth Bureau, we have already started keeping an eye on it.”
Wang Chen chuckled, “After all, it looks like this technology isn’t unique to just one family.”
“Yeah, but now that we have a lead, things should move faster.”
Bai Heguang nodded and agreed.
“You humans are so annoying. Why don’t just confront them head-on?”
Old Lady Fan, who was currently scolding Nicholas, could not help but to criticize them after hearing their conversation.
“Old Lady, the Federation is currently unstable because of the tribes. We can’t afford chaos at this moment.”
Xiao Mu helplessly tried to explain, but Old Lady Fan clearly didn’t care about these complicated matters and continued to scold Nicholas.
Just then, the other members of the Deep Sea Alliance came running over. Looking at the Death Ice Forest still shrouded in the Power of Death and the Storm Whale corpse that Old Lady Fan had dragged over, they couldn’t help but feel astonished.
“This aura… could it be the world-ending sea-beast from the legends?”
One of the Five Old Men immediately identified it, his face changing immediately.
“Unless something unexpected happens, it should be beneath here.”
Wang Chen chuckled. The Morning Star erupted with all its power, completely burying the last crack.
“The original seal is still here, it just developed a small crack for some reason, which was accidentally absorbed by the Storm Whale, leading to the current situation.”
Wang Chen looked at the Five Old Men and said, “However, it would be best if the inhabitants of the Deep Sea keep an eye on this place in the future. If it gets out, it could be quite troublesome.”
“It might happen again?”
Bai Qi was stunned, suggesting this monster was as fearsome as the real one and its appearance would be akin to that of the Black Fog Serpent?
Wang Chen shrugged, “Of course, seals also have a shelf life.”
“Alright, how long can it last then?”
Wang Chen considered, “If left undisturbed, at most… one to two hundred years?”
Bai Qi: “…”
He suddenly understood why his teacher didn’t want to waste words with Wang Chen. This way of speaking could indeed incite anger.
The Five Old Men sighed in relief and said, “This place is on the border of the South Sea and the West Sea. It’s not very convenient for you humans to get involved. Since the seal is still intact, our sea-beast clan will take responsibility for monitoring it.”
“We appreciate that.”
Xiao Mu nodded slightly and suggested, “If there’s nothing else, should we return and continue our discussion?”
“Yes.”
The Five Old Men nodded, but Old Lady Fan seemed a bit impatient.
“That’s too much trouble for me. I won’t go. You guys discuss it. Just let me know when you’re done.”
Old Lady Fan waved her hand, “I’m feeling hungry. I’ll go find something to eat first.”
After saying this, Old Lady Fan planned to head to the West Sea, pulling Nicholas along with her.
“Alright,Old Lady, as you wish.”
Xiao Mu didn’t stop them. They chose Old Lady Fan as the chairman of the Deep Sea Alliance instead of the Guardians of Eden because of her strength and her Eastern Dragon lineage.
As long as she stood on the side of the humans, the Five Old Men and the twelve Legendary Sea-Beasts of the Deep Sea Alliance would not turn against them.
In short, Old Lady Fan’s attitude was more important than anything else. It served as a stepping-day for both sides, whether or not she managed the situation didn’t matter.
The younger generation of the Deep Sea Alliance had also been generally mollified by Bai Qi, so there shouldn’t be any major conflicts.
When he saw Old Lady Fan just walk away like that, Bai Qi couldn’t help but laugh.
Giving Old Lady Fan’s temperament, he was already shocked that she could sit through their week-long meeting. Her current attitude seemed more normal to him.
Speaking of food, the Jiuyou Darkbird seemed to have coughed up the pearl of the glass octopus earlier. He wondered if it was still usable.
Thinking of this, Bai Qi immediately looked around and finally found the pearl next to the Jiuyou Darkbird.
[Material Name]: Storm Whale Ball
[Material Level]: Mythical
[Material Description]: A ball formed from the concentrated energy essence of the Storm Whale. It can summon storms and tsunamis.
…
“It’s not the Glass Octopus, it’s the pearl of the Storm Whale?”
Bai Qi was surprised, but the Jiuyou Darkbird then said, “The Glass Octopus you mentioned is probably the force of purification inside this pearl, right?”
“That’s right.”
Bai Qi nodded. The Glass Octopus had healing and purification abilities, which made it popular amongst sea-beasts.
“It must have hidden inside this Storm Whale Ball. Combined with its special attributes, that’s probably why it was able to hold on for so long.”
In saying this, a regretful expression surfaced on the Jiuyou Darkbird’s face, “Unfortunately, apart from adapting to coexist with the Power of Death, there’s almost nothing that can purify it.”
“Is that so…”
Bai Qi tilted his head, suddenly recalling the scene of the Six Pets fighting the sea-monsters.
Apart from Alpha, which also had the Power of Death, and the fungus with the Power of the Great Sun, only Gamma’s Evil Power had injured the sea-monsters.
“The origin of this evil power really isn’t ordinary.”
Thinking back to the large demon that had appeared when Gamma’s evolution in the Green Dragon Secret Realm was interrupted, Bai Qi’s curiosity about the Evil Power was piqued again.
Perhaps, the Law Emperor had used the Evil Power as the core of the Dual Sky Mech for this exact reason?
“Bai Qi, hold onto this Storm Whale Ball. All of its Power of Death has been absorbed by Jiuyou. It’s now cleaned, so you can use it safely,” Bai Heguang suggested, indicating to Bai Qi to tuck away the Storm Whale Ball. “This should be useful for your six pets.”
“Thank you, Sir.”
Bai Qi nodded in gratitude and quickly pocketed the Storm Whale Ball. Just as he was about to say something else, a spatial rift appeared in front of him and pulled him through.
“Bai Qi, I’m borrowing you for a bit. Nicholas’ seafood cooking is too hard to swallow!”
Upon hearing Old Lady Fan’s words, both the Five Old Men and the Titled Legendary all sighed in resignation.
Even though they were entities who had lived for unknown number of years, they behaved so rashly, daring to declare their craving for seafood in front of a Sea Beast.
Oh? Going to eat at the West Sea?
Well, that’s alright then.
…
The West Sea Region.
Bai Qi stared at the mound of Sea Beast before him, then glanced at a dejected-looking Nicholas. He let out a helpless sigh.
Nicholas was a vegetarian cook at heart. Recently though, spending too much time in the factory…ah no, it was crafting helmets that had led to a considerable decline in his culinary skills. Undeniably, cooking seafood was a challenging task.
“Well, I’m hungry anyway.”
Bai Qi summoned Gamma and the other five pets, briefly explained the situation, and soon Gamma transformed into a chef and began the task of cooking up a seafood storm.
Cr-unch cr-unch.
(“Boss, what about that Sea Beast now?”) Alpha, despite his fears for the Sea Beast, couldn’t help himself but ask.
“Its main body is still there, but it’s been sealed. As for the part that had sneaked out, it’s been absorbed by the Jiuyou Darkbird,” Bai Qi took out the Storm Whale Ball, smiled at Snow Doll, and said, “Even though it was somewhat risky, we finally found your upgrade material, Jie Ta~”
Hnnnrrr? Hnnnrrr?
(“This is for me to eat?”) Snow Doll circled around the Storm Whale Ball curiously and then looked uncertainly at Bai Qi.
“Of course.”
Bai Qi smiled and pushed the Storm Whale Ball towards Jie Ta without any apprehension towards Old Lady Fan. He boldly brought out the Evolution Egg.
Old Lady Fan had noticed the Evolution Egg long ago, but being so well-traveled and wise, she didn’t bat an eyelid. Humans had such a diverse range of Beast Mastery Talents, she had seen so many others before. There was no need to be surprised.
Soon, Snow Doll and the Storm Whale Ball were encased by the Diamond Egg. But before Bai Qi could rest for a while, he suddenly felt the surrounding seawater violently sway.
“Is there…a change in the weather?” Bai Qi was puzzled, whereas Schuck produced a data chart and announced, “Based on the current condition, a tsunami is predicted.”
“A tsunami?”
Upon hearing these words, Bai Qi was taken aback. There was no indication of a volcanic eruption or undersea earthquake, so why did a tsunami happen all of a sudden?
Crack.
Just then, Snow Doll’s newly formed Diamond Egg suddenly cracked.
Darn it, was the evolution disrupted by the tsunami?
It shouldn’t be, he had tested it before. Even Alpha, with all his force, couldn’t break the Evolution Egg.
But, after seeing Jie Ta transforming into a stream of water and emerging from the Diamond egg, Bai Qi finally understood.
As Jie Ta moved, the swaying of the surrounding seawater intensified. Clearly, the tsunami was initiated by Jie Ta.
It wasn’t a failed evolution, but a complete absorption.
Was it because Jie Ta was an Elemental species, so their digestion capability was particularly impressive?
Hnnnrrr? Hnnnrrr?
(“What’s happening?”) Jie Ta looked fearfully at the surroundings, obviously not realizing that he caused all this action.
“It’s nothing, Jie Ta. Try to restrain your powers first.”
Bai Qi walked up to Jie Ta, gently patted his head that resembled seawater, and began to check his status.
[Name]: Water Spirit Child (Jie Ta)
[Nature]: Water (Myth)
[Bloodline Level]: Mid-Level King
[Level]: Four Stage Two Level
[Skills]: Water Curtain Heaven (Transcendent Level – Proficient), Rain Prayer (Super Level – Perfect), Tsunami (Transcendent Level – Proficient), Flame Soul (Transcendent Level – Proficient)
[Energy Value]: 8E2110W
[Condition]: Evolvable
…
[Skill Name]: Tsunami
[Skill Level]: Transcendent Level
[Skill Introduction]: Indomitable, nothing it can’t break!
…
“So, by absorbing the Storm Whale Pearl, Water Tsunami Wave evolved into Tsunami, ‘water escapism’ morphed into ‘ocean escapism’?” Bai Qi’s eyes lit up. He hadn’t tried it in a battle yet, but judging by the current situation, it was definitely a leap of upgrade!
