Beastmaster: I don’t want to be a breeder!.

Chapter 432 Research Institute
Li Cunxu discovered that during battles with small soft targets, a certain situation often occurred.

That is, the opponent would rather believe it is an illusion than believe the truth.

But once he reaches the King realm, the backlash from the Beast Taming Contract will make him realize the truth.

The backlash from the deaths of the four hellish pets severely damaged his spiritual body, causing him to spew out a large cloud of blood mist.

Seeing that Xiao Ruan had finished fighting, Li Anle lost the will to fight and quickly ended the fight with a single punch.

The dragon demon's head was blown off by her small fist.

The contrast between the stunningly beautiful girl slaying the ferocious dragon demon is striking.

Upon seeing this, Li Cunxu's pupils contracted; he was increasingly unable to comprehend Li Anle's combat prowess.

Li Cunxu couldn't help but ask, "What law have you comprehended?"

Li Anle said, "It's the principle I gleaned from the martial arts manual you gave me, brother."

"The Ultimate Divine Fist".

"Ah."

"What principle did you glean from it? The principle of divine fist?"

"No, it is the ultimate law."

Li Cunxu gasped. He understood why Li Anle had gone into seclusion for so long to break through to the King level, and why he had become ridiculously strong after the breakthrough.

The Ultimate Law is a supreme law, no less important than the Law of All Things.

It can elevate physique, willpower, strength, and speed to their extremes.

There is a famous representative of the ultimate laws, the ultimate emperor. He killed the dragon gods with the ultimate laws. Later, he was surrounded and beaten by the dragon gods and died. Before his death, he fought back and took away ten dragon gods.

With such a record, an uninformed person might think that this supreme emperor has already ascended to the throne of a god, and a particularly powerful one at that.

Li Cunxu asked, "Have you tested your strength?"

Li Anle rubbed his fist. "I tried it. I arm wrestled with a Holy Lotus Armored Dragon. It reduced its power to the level of a Venerable King, and it could barely hold its own against me."

Dragon pets are naturally skilled in strength, but even so, only a King-level being can match Li Anle. No wonder Li Anle beats the Dragon Demon like a child.

"what!"

Sima Long let out a shrill scream and died.

Li Anle turned his head and looked at him strangely, saying, "What happened to him? How could he suddenly die? Was he trying to fake his death to fool us?"

"Five king-level pets died at once; he was killed by the backlash of the contract."

Li Cunxu was quite certain because his spiritual sea had already contained Sima Long's spiritual power.

Beastmasters truly live up to their reputation as a profession specializing in mental power; the mental power they contained, including a portion of Sima Long's, occupied half of Li Cunxu's mental sea.

The ocean is all-encompassing, capable of accommodating the residual spiritual energy of others after their death. It immediately accommodates the spiritual energy of those who died, holding up about 50-60% of their life force.

The earlier the spiritual energy is absorbed, the more spiritual energy can be absorbed. If an hour has passed, there is basically no spiritual energy left to absorb.

As soon as Sima Long's mental energy came into contact with Li Cunxu's mental energy, the will within Sima Long's mental energy caused a slight contamination and influence on Li Cunxu. In order to avoid the influence from deepening, Li Cunxu quickly used the mental energy splitting technique to divide this mental energy.

Little Dream Butterfly, residing in Li Cunxu's spiritual sea, saw so much spiritual power arriving again. No longer concealing its ability to devour spiritual power, it unleashed its full power and feasted heartily.

After Xiaomengdie had completely consumed the spiritual energy she had received.

Li Cunxu asked Xiao Mengdie to present the fragments of memory she had obtained by consuming Sima Long's spiritual power to him through the Eternal Dream.

When Sima Long's mental energy came into contact with Li Cunxu's mental energy, Li Cunxu received scattered fragments of memories. In these fragments, Li Cunxu saw the Sima family's Hell Pet Modification Experimentation Lab.

Li Cunxu became interested in this Hell Pet Modification Experiment.

After setting up a temporary shelter, Li Cunxu, under the influence of Xiao Mengdie's "Butterfly Pattern Dream" skill, fell into an eternal dream.

Xiao Ruan was in charge of guarding, while Jiang Lingyun was pulled out by Li Anle to pick up treasures.

Li Anle really liked Jiang Lingyun's... good fortune. If you walked with her, you could find a bunch of good things after walking for a short while.

Although Li Anle has the support of the Shenglian family and is not short of resources, who can resist the temptation of finding beautiful gems while just strolling around?

Li Anle now understood why his older brother took Jiang Lingyun with him everywhere he went. "Sister Lingyun, why do you call my brother 'boss'?"

Jiang Lingyun smiled and said, "Because my boss pays my salary."

"My brother? He pays your salary?"

Li Anle glanced at the spatial ring on Jiang Lingyun's middle finger. The spatial ring had been filled with the resources she had picked up and couldn't hold anything else.

No, you're short of wages?
It feels like you're even paying my brother's salary now.

"Ah."

Jiang Lingyun nodded.

Ang Lee asked with a smile, "How much salary does my brother pay me?"

"Sea buckthorn fruit of the desert".

"What is that?" asked the ignorant Li Anle.

"An expansion device."

"How many days' wages does this expansion material cost?"

"Twenty years."

Li Anle's voice unconsciously became louder.

"Twenty years' salary for just one expansion item? Isn't that a low salary?"

It's no wonder Li Anle raised his voice; just now, he saw Jiang Lingyun trip over a tree root and pick up the expansion item 'Old Dragon Tree Root'.

I still hold that old dragon tree root in my hand.

Li Anle looked at the old dragon tree roots, then at Jiang Lingyun, his face full of doubt.

"The salary wasn't low; on the contrary, I feel that twenty years isn't enough time to repay the salary my boss paid."

Li Anle was even more puzzled.

"Sister Lingyun, you don't lack expansion materials, so why isn't it enough to repay the debt?"

"The significance of expansion items is not the same. I did not awaken a contract slot and was born without a contract slot. It was only with the expansion items given by the boss that I became qualified to contract pets. It was a turning point in my life and the beginning of my fortune growing like a snowball. Therefore, the Wanmo Seabuckthorn Fruit expansion item is extremely important to me. This kindness is really hard to repay."

……

In the memory scenes unfolding in the Eternal Dream, Li Cunxu learned the location of the Sima family's Hell Pet Modification Research Institute.

On a small island in the western sea west of the Divine Continent.

Sima Long always went to the Hell Pet Modification Research Institute through a teleportation array set up in the Sima family home.

Li Cunxu could not use the same method to go there, because the teleportation array leading to the Hell Pet Modification Research Institute was a bloodline teleportation array, and Li Cunxu did not have the Sima family bloodline, so he could not use it.

If Li Cunxu wanted to go, he could only first use the teleportation array in the city's teleportation center to teleport to a city near the West Sea, and then go to the West Sea to search for it.

Yes, searching.

Sima Long's fragmented memories did not contain the specific location of the research institute island.

It would be a time-consuming and laborious search for Li Cunxu to find him.

However, Li Cunxu still decided to look for it.

Li Cunxu had a hunch that his tenth pet might end up in this Hell Pet Modification Research Institute.

Before heading to the Western Sea, Li Cunxu had one more thing to do.

The evolution materials for the Extreme Crystal Dragon—Destruction Glowstone, Soothing Mushroom, and Pure Crystal—have all been collected.

It's time to evolve.

Evolution can cause quite a stir, so the little softie once again demonstrated its digging skills as a hole-digging hero.
