Beast Taming: I can evolve indefinitely

Chapter 219 The Phoenix Feather

Seeing President Qin's glaring eyes, Bai Qi shrank back and continued, "However, I have found a solution that is no worse than the evolved form of a normal progenitor beast."

"real?"

Upon hearing Bai Qi's words, Chairman Qin's expression softened somewhat, but he still asked back with some uncertainty.

"Really, but we'll have to wait a while to see the results."

Bai Qi told President Qin about his lack of space-type materials. President Qin nodded slightly and said, "Space-type materials are indeed scarcer than materials of other types, but if it's really as you say, it will still be worth the price."

"So you're planning to go to the Tower of Relics to exchange for space-related materials?"

"That's not necessarily true. Let's see what they have first. After all, there are a few legendary materials that I'd also like to try."

President Qin: "..."

Are young people these days so heartless?

President Qin sighed and said, "Perfect timing. I'm quite familiar with Xiang Li from the Tower of Sacred Relics. I'll go with you; maybe I can even offer you some advice."

"Great! It would be wonderful if you, President, were willing to go."

Bai Qi nodded repeatedly upon hearing this. Although Zhao Futu had spoken, if he brought along an acquaintance, Xiang Li might be able to open up more legendary resources in several regions to help him make choices.

After all, he had already secured the resources for Gamma, but he hadn't fully decided on the resources for Alpha yet.

"In that case, I'll head over to the Tower of Knowledge first. Old Qin, don't forget the time."

Professor Dong smiled upon seeing this and took the lead in walking towards the Tower of Knowledge, while Bai Qi walked towards the Tower of Sacred Relics with Chairman Qin.

"I didn't expect you to be so capable of causing trouble. In just one month, you've traveled all over the First Emperor's Secret Realm and the Dharma Emperor's Secret Realm, and even managed to trick a legendary dragon out of there. Tsk..."

After listening to Bai Qi's experiences over the past few days, Chairman Qin showed some disdain, but the smile on his face completely betrayed his true feelings.

Although Bai Qi is good at stirring things up, what he does are all real achievements.

Looking across the entire Federation, who else can compare to Bai Qi in terms of research and achievements in multiple fields such as pet breeding, runes, and machinery?

Of course, the most crucial point is that he personally discovered this all-around genius from a group of young people.

"I didn't want to either, but Chairman Zhao always likes to throw me out there, so I have no choice."

Bai Qi shrugged. Although he had gained quite a bit from his trips, he would still prefer to grind for points, take first place, and exchange for two or three legendary resources.

After all, once the training camp is over, he won't have the chance to openly take advantage of the association anymore.

"Old Qin, what brings you here?"

Just then, Xiang Li suddenly appeared in front of the two of them and greeted Chairman Qin very warmly. Chairman Qin smiled and said, "Old Li, long time no see!"

They really know each other well. In that case, it should be a sure thing for me to open two more districts to choose from.

"It's been so long, you still look like a little rascal!"

"Unlike you, you've aged so much in such a short time."

Just when Bai Qi thought things were settled, the atmosphere of their conversation suddenly took a sharp turn for the worse, turning from a friendly reunion into a bitter feud between mortal enemies.

Watching the two men berate each other like old men from the marketplace, Bai Qi silently distanced himself from Chairman Qin, acting as if he didn't know him at all.

At this rate, it would be good enough if we didn't give him any special treatment, let alone withhold any resources from him.

Fortunately, the two stopped after arguing for a while, punched each other to end it, and then looked at Bai Qi in unison, saying, "Bai Qi, are you here to exchange for legendary resources?"

Bai Qi nodded and said, "Legendary resources are too sought after; it's safer to get them first."

"Hahaha...that makes sense. Someone went crazy a lot back then because they were too slow and missed out on the resources they wanted."

Upon hearing this, Xiang Li burst into laughter, while Chairman Qin looked on with disbelief.

Clearly, the person Xiang Li was referring to was Chairman Qin.

"I happen to be free today, and since Lao Qin is back at headquarters, I'll accompany you to choose some items."

Xiang Li paused, then asked, "Do you have any specific ideas of your own?"

Bai Qi pondered for a moment and said, "I originally had my eye on the Light Spirit Holy Diamond, but if there are any materials suitable for the undead type, that would also be fine. My main pet is currently lacking a powerful ranged attack method."

"The Holy Diamond of Light? I don't remember Bai Qi having a support-type pet contracted?"

President Qin was taken aback upon hearing this. He knew all of Bai Qi's four pet beasts. Apart from the Primordial Beast, which had the potential to develop in this direction, the other three were basically unrelated to the support type.

The Light Spirit Diamond is almost always used to cultivate light-type creatures, and most of them are support-type. His light spirits have also used it before.

"Can I say that I didn't expect things to develop in this direction either?"

Bai Qi shrugged helplessly. When he first saw that Gamma needed light resistance to fuse all those resistances into elemental resistance, he had already considered using the Light Spirit Diamond. After Gamma upgraded to a lord and successfully obtained the perpetual motion machine talent, he became even more certain of his choice of the Light Spirit Diamond.

While perpetual motion machines are appealing, they can be quite harmful to the body. Adding a power of light would make it even more reliable.

After all, the combination of Light Priest and Shadow Priest is quite good.

"Let's go to my office first. Bai Qi, summon your pet and let's take a look together."

Xiang Li was indeed quite patient today, leading the two directly to his office, while Bai Qi did not hesitate and summoned Gamma.

Click-clack?

(Master, is there something you need from Gamma? Gamma isn't full yet.)

Gamma, who was eating breakfast, swallowed the food that was already halfway through its mouth in one gulp, instantly digesting it into the purest nutrients, and then affectionately nuzzled against Bai Qi.

"I'll pick out the upgrade materials for you, and we'll eat it later."

Bai Qi hugged Gamma and rubbed it against his chest, saying, "This is the pet I want to use the Light Spirit Holy Diamond for."

"A slime? No, wait, its bloodline level is also Lord-level?"

Xiang Li looked at the Gamma in Bai Qi's hand with some surprise, clearly not expecting that the slime monster could evolve to the Lord level.

"Ahem, mine is a mutant, it's a bit special."

Bai Qi scratched his head and told the two about Gamma's condition and the energy diversion skill.

"I see. With the mutation of the physique and the diversion of energy, if the Holy Light ability is added, it can indeed serve as a support-type creature."

Xiang Li nodded, understanding Bai Qi's plan, and said, "However, the compatibility between the Light system and the Alien system is not very high, so you should be prepared for failure."

"I understand, but I still want to give it a try."

Bai Qi nodded. With the Evolution Egg, even if the attributes are incompatible, it can still be forcibly attached, although the effect might not be as good.

"Wait, Bai Qi, has your slime been contaminated recently?"

Just then, President Qin suddenly noticed something, summoned a light spirit that circled around Gamma, and his expression changed instantly.

"How come your slime has demonic energy inside it?"

Upon hearing President Qin's words, Xiang Li's expression changed. After a careful examination, he also noticed Gamma's abnormality.

"Uh, it was from the battle with the Black Sky Mech in the Dharma Emperor's Secret Realm a few days ago. I accidentally got it on myself, and that's why my Gamma upgrade is also due to it."

Seeing the two of them looking so serious, Bai Qi quickly explained the origin of the evil energy, but their expressions remained tense.

"So the Black Sky Mech is powered by fel energy? No wonder."

After a long silence, President Qin examined Gamma carefully again and said, "If your pet is indeed tainted by evil energy, then I can only tell you that it is destined to never possess the Holy Light attribute."

"The conflict between the attributes of Fel and Holy Light is even more intense than that between Fel and Shadow. If you forcibly fuse with the Holy Light Diamond, it will only cause irreversible damage to your pet."

Oh, I see.

Upon hearing this, Bai Qi suddenly realized something, but another piece of material unconsciously surfaced in his mind.

Since they have two conflicting attributes, the Light Spirit Diamond can only be exchanged together after the training camp ends.

"I also suggest that Bai Qi, you should change to a different material. Alien-type combined with Fel energy, the conflict between the Light Spirit Holy Diamond and your pet is too strong."

Bai Qi nodded, put away Gamma, summoned Alpha again, and said, "Then let's choose the undead materials first."

"Is that the Withering Dragon Lord? That new evolved form?"

Upon seeing Alpha appear, Xiang Li also became interested. After examining it carefully, he said, "It seems a little different from what I've seen before. Hmm? Is this the power of death?"

Bai Qi nodded and said, "My teacher took me to train in controlling the power of death a few days ago."

Upon hearing this, Xiang Li understood. After thinking for a long time, he looked at Alpha and said, "Actually, you should ask your teacher about this. After all, in terms of training necromancy, there is really no one in the entire Federation more professional than him. But since you asked, I do have a recommendation."

As he spoke, Xiang Li turned on his computer, quickly operated it, and retrieved a document, projecting it onto the screen.

[Name]: Phoenix Feather

[Rank]: Legendary

[Introduction]: Fire-type material, said to be a feather that fell from the phoenix. As long as life continues, the flame will never be extinguished, and vice versa.

"The Phoenix?"

Bai Qi was somewhat surprised to see this. Was there really such a creature as a phoenix here?

"That's right, it's the Phoenix."

Xiang Li nodded and said, "Although the flames of the phoenix can be considered righteous and honorable, as a magical creature that walks between life and death, its feathers will not harm undead creatures."

"However, the Phoenix Feather contains extremely strong fire energy. If the auxiliary materials are not properly matched, it can easily explode during the fusion process, so it is quite dangerous."

"Since your pet can control the power of death, you don't need to worry about the flames getting out of control when you fuse with this phoenix feather. It can be considered a tailor-made solution."

After hearing Xiang Li's explanation, Bai Qi's eyes grew brighter and brighter, and he made a decision without hesitation.

"I'll take this one!"
