Beast Taming: Starting from Transmigration and Starting with a Cheat Code

Qin Ming stretched his body, his joints cracking.

He's just one step away from reaching the fifth rank. Keda and Cangxuan are both stuck at level 49, and although Little Fatty isn't by his side, he's roughly on par with them based on the vague senses from the contract.

How come it seems like he's already met the standards for an outstanding graduate, even though he's only been enrolled for a short time? Qin Ming stroked his chin.

As a result, I touched a hand full of stubble.

Oh no, how much time has passed?

Qin Ming looked down at the back of his hand, then touched the length of the stubble on his chin.

His beard was at least a finger's length long, and his clothes had a musty, worn look.

He remembered that it was deep winter when he entered the secret realm.

What now?

Although he felt a little panicked, Qin Ming forced himself to suppress it.

Not far away, Keda and Cangxuan, who had just completed their breakthrough, were stretching their bodies.

Its feathers, as white as moonlight, remain completely dry, and its flight is light and graceful.

Cang Xuan walked lightly, each step leaving a faint blue light trail on the velvety grass.

Both spirit beasts acted with a unique excitement after their breakthrough, while also adapting to their own changes.

Qin Ming saw this but did not urge them.

Anyway, it won't make a difference if we wait a little longer.

Once Qin Ming and Cang Xuan had adapted, Qin Ming took a deep breath and headed towards the exit of the secret realm.

The azure-colored light spots appeared easily as Qin Ming reached out his hand.

It wasn't that his strength was enough to change the formation with a single thought, but rather that after being infused with the spiritual energy of the entire secret realm, his control over this place was completely different.

As the familiar pulling sensation enveloped my entire body, the outside air rushed towards me.

As Qin Ming stepped out of the secret realm, the first thing he saw was tree branches.

The branches have begun to sprout new buds, small but very noticeable.

He remembered clearly that when he came here with Huo Lin, these trees were still bare, covered with a thin layer of frost.

The branches are now sprouting new buds.

hiss……

With trembling hands, Qin Ming pulled out his communicator from his pocket, wanting to check the time and contact his teachers and friends.

But the communicator went completely black and didn't respond. Okay, it's out of power.

Qin Ming put the communicator back in his pocket and looked around.

The scenery was still as beautiful as ever, but he couldn't recognize the direction. When he came, Huo Lin led the way, and the light and shadow along the way were so dazzling that he couldn't remember it at all.

Now that Huo Lin is gone, and there are no landmarks around the valley, he doesn't even know which direction the academy is in.

My heart yearns to return home, but all I see is emptiness.

Qin Ming sighed. The safest plan was to go to the Void Realm to find Little Fatty first, and then use Little Fatty's location to go back.

Qin Ming raised his hand and made a sweeping motion in front of him, his mental energy following the guidance of the contract channel to enter the spatial node.

A silver-gray crack tore open in front of him, its edges shimmering with the misty halo unique to the ethereal realm.

He is now only one step away from the fifth level. The density and quality of his mental power have improved by more than one level compared to before the breakthrough, and opening the spatial channel is several times easier than before.

Qin Ming stepped into the crevice.

Enveloped in mist, a realm of ethereal beauty.

The sky in the ethereal realm has no sun or moon, only an eternal, unchanging milky-white halo that shines down from the heavens.

The ground is made of a semi-transparent material that feels slightly soft underfoot, like solidified clouds. Floating islands of all sizes and heights float in all directions, connected by bridges of light.

"Old Kong, it's been a long time." Qin Ming bowed respectfully. "I've come to take Little Fatty back."

When Elder Kong saw Qin Ming approaching, he put down his teacup and smiled. He rose from the pavilion, his silver robe trailing on the ground without making a sound. "Alright, come with me."

Qin Ming followed Elder Kong across several bridges of light.

Little Fatty must have gained something from this breakthrough. But Qin Ming knew in his heart that the biggest breakthrough should have been his own.

Without an opponent of equal strength to spar with, he dared not speak rashly, but the feeling of being filled with power was real.

When a Spirit Master breaks through, the energy within their body increases several times over, with both the total amount and density being upgraded.

Using the same spatial abilities made traversing spaces much easier.

Qin Ming walked briskly, full of confidence.

Before, when I took Little Fatty back to Earth, we would need to rest for half a week after each trip. Now that we've broken through, the burden of opening channels has been greatly reduced.

He estimated that by taking this opportunity and working hard for a few days, he could pay off all the debts he had owed Xiaopang in the past.

Qin Ming followed Elder Kong with a refreshed spirit, passing another pavilion.

Old Kong stopped in his tracks. "We've arrived."

Qin Ming looked in the direction Kong Lao was pointing. They had just walked through a long corridor and had now reached the end of it.

Qin Ming steadied himself by holding onto a nearby pillar and gazed into the distance.

The pillars are thick, with fine, neatly arranged lines on their surface, one ring after another.

When you touch it, it feels warm and hard, with a slight warmth.

Qin Ming glanced at it subconsciously. The pattern looked like scales, each scale about the size of a palm, and they were arranged in a neat and orderly manner.

As he looked at it, he noticed that the pillar... had moved?

The pillar rose slightly before falling back down, causing a dull tremor in the ground.

The scales reflect light slightly, and as the pillar moves, the spacing between the lines changes subtly, like the state of skin being stretched.

No way!

Qin Ming froze, his head lifting up haltingly.

His gaze followed the pillar upwards, past several layers of scale-like curves, over a huge arched dome, and finally, high up amidst the swirling clouds, he saw a pair of familiar eyes.

Her large, golden eyes were blinking as she looked at him.

"Boss!" A loud voice boomed as if coming from all directions, "The turtle's grown big, isn't it strong?"

Qin Ming remained silent.

He swallowed hard, his mind blank.

The "pillar" he's holding onto is Little Fatty's front leg?

Those scale-like markings are the scales on the turtle's legs.

Little Fatty has grown bigger, not just a little bigger, but many times bigger.

Qin Ming's confidence, which had been abundant just half a minute ago, instantly deflated.

Keda and Cangxuan also broke through, but their size changes were only "slightly larger," still within the normal range. Little Fatty, on the other hand, went directly to a different weight class.

"Hehe, boss, aren't you surprised?" Little Fatty was a little smug. "Turtles usually just mimic, but today they can finally stretch out a bit."

Little Fatty took a step, and the earth shook.

The entire floating island was shaking, and the halo on the light bridge flickered violently a few times.

Qin Ming helped the chubby boy stand up, looked up at the boy's legs which were thicker than his own, and put his hand to his forehead.

He dared not look, much less think about it.

Little Fatty can mimic human form to control his appetite, without affecting his daily life at all.

However, in the Spirit Control Space, the pressure that a Spirit Control Master needs to bear has absolutely nothing to do with whether he can mimic!

How will he live from now on? Will his golden pearls hold up? Qin Ming felt like all light was about to disappear before his eyes!

"Boss, shall I carry you?" Little Fatty lowered his huge head, his eyes full of expectation.

Half a minute later, straddling the giant tortoise's back, Qin Ming looked down at the floating islands of most of the Void Realm.

We also experienced a thrilling swim in the sea of ​​clouds and water.

Qin Ming felt he could do it again.

After this breakthrough, Little Fatty's internal energy increased significantly, and the spatial power he could draw upon was much more stable than before. Specifically, Little Fatty's teleportation skill could finally carry people.

His control over spatial power improved by more than one level, and the structure of the passage finally stabilized.

"Let's go back." Qin Ming patted the turtle's back.

As Little Fatty stomped his front paw, a wide silver passage opened up in the space in front of him.

Qin Ming waved goodbye, and Elder Kong watched with a smile.

The passageway closes, and light and shadow flow.

After a few breaths, the familiar scene of the academy appeared before my eyes.

Qin Ming jumped off the chubby boy's back.

After landing, Little Fatty quickly mimicked his surroundings, his enormous body shrinking rapidly in the silver light, returning to the size of a washbasin within seconds. He lay down at Qin Ming's feet and yawned.

Qin Ming bent down and picked up the chubby boy, then turned to look at his dormitory...?

The two-story house, which originally had a backyard, now has several layers of reinforced arrays added to its exterior walls, and the yard fence has been replaced with some kind of alloy material.

If it weren't for the fact that the trees at the entrance hadn't changed, Qin Ming wouldn't have recognized such a big change.

There was also a guard post next to the tree, and people were sitting inside.

Didn't he put up a sign saying he was in seclusion? Why has he even replaced the door with a metal one?

Qin Ming stood still, holding the little fat boy. The people in the guard post immediately became alert. He was wearing the uniform of the academy's law enforcement team, but his face was unfamiliar.

"Hey classmate, you..."

The other person stopped mid-sentence, looked Qin Ming up and down, and frowned. "Who are you? You look unfamiliar."

Qin Ming thought to himself, "I thought you looked unfamiliar."

He had lived in this dormitory for quite some time and had never seen this person before. But instead of saying anything, he took out an ID card from his pocket and handed it over.

Proof of the Array Academy.

Qin Ming holds dual identities as an exchange student and a member of the Array Academy, but the temporary pass for an exchange student is far less identifiable than the certificate issued by the Array Academy.

The other person took the identification, his expression visibly softening. As he looked through the documents, he explained, "An important person went missing here a few days ago, and the entire academy was shaken."

"I heard that some people from the south are coming over to demand an explanation."

The other person's tone was full of helplessness, "The whole school is under strict lockdown now, and you have to verify your identity to enter or leave. I'm just the temporary administrator for this week."

As he spoke, he picked up a palm-sized device and placed Qin Ming's ID on the sensing area.

The instrument screen lights up, and a line of characters scrolls rapidly.

"Beep, authentication successful."

The other party breathed a sigh of relief and was about to pull out his ID.

The instrument went off again, "Alarm! Alarm!"

The alarms blared incessantly, their sound extremely piercing.
