Beast Taming: I can evolve indefinitely

Chapter 258 The Source of Life

Tower of Relics.

Bai Qi smiled broadly, looking at the points displayed on the badge, feeling extremely happy.

With nearly 150,000 points, Bai Qi could exchange for another legendary resource, and still have quite a bit left over.

"Although the third phase of training will take us to different places, we should still be able to earn points, right? I'm still short over 30,000 points, maybe I can exchange them for another item."

Bai Qi quickly devised a plan for how to use the points and headed towards Xiang Li's office.

Seeing Bai Qi approach, Xiang Li immediately understood Bai Qi's plan and smiled, "Are you in such a hurry to exchange resources?"

Bai Qi nodded and smiled, "That's right, I'll have to trouble Tower Master Xiang for some advice again."

Xiang Li smiled faintly and said, "Tell me, which resources do you want to exchange for? With your points, you should be able to exchange for three resources, right?"

"For the first two items, I plan to exchange them for the Light Spirit Holy Diamond and the Gemini Core. As for the third item, I haven't decided yet."

The Holy Diamond and Gemini Core are both for Gamma's use, which means Gamma skipped one of the team competitions. The only ones who haven't used the first round of legendary resources are Husky and Delta.

Although he exchanged a mental resource with the Thirteenth Bureau, which is suitable for both Husky and Delta, Bai Qi was originally planning to let the two beasts compete for it first. But now that he has received another one, he is in a bit of a dilemma.

Should they exchange all their spiritual resources to make up for Delta's weakness in spiritual power, or should they simply go all the way and exchange for a legendary resource that can enhance the body's basic attributes?

I'm so conflicted...

Seeing Bai Qi's conflicted expression, Xiang Li pondered for a moment and said, "Since you haven't made up your mind yet, why don't you listen to my opinion?"

"I would like to hear the details."

Xiang Li paused for a moment, then said, "Your skeletal pet is called Death Sword Lord, right? It can be cultivated into a king-level beast at the fourth tier, so its potential is limitless. However, you can hold off for now. Otherwise, if the pet's strength increases too quickly, it will put unnecessary pressure on your soul."

Bai Qi understood upon hearing this. Although Alpha was only at the fourth-tier monarch level, just like Bai Qiucha's skeletal dragon, if it advanced too quickly, it would damage his soul. In any case, Alpha had already used up the first round of legendary resources, so he hadn't considered it before.

"As for that strange slime monster, the Holy Light Diamond and the Twin Star Core you asked for are probably for him. Although I don't know why you would risk fusing Holy Light and Fel energy, it is indeed feasible with the Twin Star Core."

"As for the remaining two, I recommend that you strengthen the progenitor beast."

Xiang Li paused for a moment, then said, "The progenitor beast that can evolve and degenerate according to external conditions, in my opinion, has an upper limit that is even higher than your Death Sword Lord."

"If one day you can cultivate your progenitor beast into a legendary creature, I guarantee that among creatures of the same level, no one can guarantee that they will be able to defeat it!"

After listening to Xiang Li's words, Bai Qi suddenly realized that, indeed, if Delta could be cultivated into a legendary creature, without the burden of the bloodline level difference, Delta would be worthy of being called a hexagonal all-around warrior.

"I see."

Bai Qi nodded, looked at Xiang Li, and said, "Then, Tower Master Xiang, do you have any suitable recommendations?"

Seeing that Bai Qi had adopted his opinion, Xiang Li nodded in satisfaction.

Geniuses are often arrogant, but those who refuse to listen to advice are also prone to dying young. Someone like Bai Qi, who possesses extraordinary talent yet is willing to listen to advice, will undoubtedly have a bright future ahead of him.

Xiang Li turned on his computer, retrieved a legendary resource, and said, "I watched your match that day. Your Proto-Beast was able to maintain that form only because of energy provided by your allies, right?"

"Therefore, I recommend you choose this source of life."

"The source of life?"

Bai Qi's eyes lit up, and he had already agreed to Xiang Li's suggestion.

[Name]: The Source of Life

[Rank]: Legendary

[Introduction]: The core left behind after the death of a King-level Tree of Life contains all the life force of the Tree of Life and can greatly enhance the life essence of pets.

Previously, he only thought about improving Delta's basic attributes, but he didn't expect there to be something like the Source of Life that directly improves the essence of life.

If the essence of life is improved, then all other attributes will also be improved.

"To be honest, the direct boost from the Source of Life isn't as noticeable as other materials, but I think it's perfect for your progenitor beast."

Bai Qi nodded and said, "Thank you for your guidance, Tower Master Xiang."

Xiang Li laughed and said, "I'm hoping to get you into the Tower of Sacred Relics, so I have to help you with this little thing, whether you want to or not."

Bai Qi chuckled awkwardly. He wasn't against joining the Six Towers, but seeing how Lu Qing and Yi Xiaowei had been staying there for years, Bai Qi said he wanted to travel around for a while before making a decision.

Soon, the three legendary resources were delivered to Bai Qi. Bai Qi did not stay in the Tower of Relics any longer. He said goodbye to Xiang Li and left the Tower of Relics.

Gamma's basic benefits are in hand, and Delta also has a material that can be used without waiting for Tier 4. It's time to complete their basic benefits first.

Speaking of which, aside from the mental materials that Bureau Thirteen hasn't delivered yet, it seems like we've already got the first-stage enhancement resources for all four pets. It's time to hold a new team competition.

"Although we are now well-off, we still have to compete. Every grain of rice on our plate is the result of hard work, and lying down is not a good habit."

Bai Qi smacked his lips and headed straight for the Green Dragon Secret Realm.

Although Gamma has absorbed the wings of the Judgment Angel, it is clear that he has not fully absorbed them. Therefore, he plans to use the Gemini Core to harmonize the two energies first, which may have unexpected effects. However, this may consume more physical strength than he expected, so it is safer to stay by Nicholas's side.

Moreover, he was about to return to Gusu City, so he had to say goodbye to Nicholas.

After all, he was practically Nicholas's only acquaintance here... right?

……

Looking at Nicholas, who was fawningly introducing the dishes he had just prepared to Granny Fan in the Green Dragon Secret Realm, her eyes twitched slightly.

Why are there so many sycophants and dragon-lickers around him lately? For the first time, he felt that Zhao Futu's decision to have them study in a different place was absolutely right.

Training in this kind of environment is really demotivating.

"Bai Qi, what made you decide to come here?"

Grandma Fan was the first to notice Bai Qi's arrival and asked, "How's Delta doing lately?"

"It should be alright."

Bai Qi summoned all four pets, while Delta immediately jumped into Granny Fan's arms and affectionately rubbed her head against Granny Fan's palm.

Good heavens, even a spatial rift has appeared! Granny Fan truly lives up to her legendary status; she's completely unaffected.

Bai Qi looked at the spatial rifts Delta had created with lingering fear. Fortunately, he had corrected Delta's bad habit in time, otherwise he would have ended up in the ICU sooner or later.

"Not bad, it's plump and healthy, not far from the fourth tier. You've really put a lot of effort into it."

Grandma Fan inspected Delta for a while, then nodded in satisfaction, while Bai Qi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

If we're feeding on epic-level resources every day and the land isn't being properly nurtured, Bai Qi will have to say, "I really can't do this anymore."

"I've finished eating, so I'm going back to take a nap. You two can do as you please."

Granny Fan tore open a spatial rift and returned to the training ground, while Nicholas hung his head dejectedly, looking at Bai Qi listlessly, and said, "Bai Qi, what do you want with me?"

Bai Qi nodded and said, "I just exchanged for a few legendary resources and I want to upgrade Gamma and the others."

"Another promotion?"

Nicholas looked up and said, "I heard from Big Sister that it's best to improve a pet's abilities step by step. Leveling up too quickly can cause instability. Are you sure you don't want to proceed cautiously?"

"It shouldn't be that bad. Alpha came all the way through the same process."

Bai Qi waved his hand. Alpha was able to climb from a low-ranking servant all the way to the monarch level because of the unreasonable ability of the Evolution Egg to forcibly increase racial stats and fuse materials. If he wasn't worried about what might happen if he fused Holy Light and Fel Energy, Bai Qi wouldn't have gone through all this trouble.

"That's fine then."

Nicholas nodded and said, "Then let's get started. I need to prepare the boss's dinner soon."

Seeing Nicholas talking while flipping through the recipe, Bai Qi sighed helplessly and then summoned the other three pets.

Huh?

(I think I've caught a whiff of legendary resources.)

As soon as Beta appeared, he immediately sensed something.

"Your nose is really sensitive..."

Bai Qi patted Beta's head, placed the Gemini Core and the Source of Life in front of Gamma and Delta, and said, "Use Gamma and Delta's basic benefits first, and then we'll start the team competition."

"Gemini Core? Beastmaster, are you worried that Holy Light and Fel Energy will clash?"

Shuke glanced at the twin star cores and immediately understood. Bai Qi nodded and said, "The original plan was to use them to help fuse with the Light Spirit Holy Diamond, but now I want to try to fuse with the divine power of the Judgment Angel."

According to Gamma's feedback, the lightning mark of the Judgment Angel was gradually strengthening his physique, meaning that the thing was basically harmless, but it couldn't be directly absorbed by Gamma like other things. Bai Qi guessed that it might be related to the evil energy in Gamma's body.

Hopefully, the Gemini core can harmonize the two energies of holy light and evil, just as he described. If successful, Gamma's power will definitely be greatly enhanced.

As for Delta, Bai Qi had asked Xiang Li. The source of life has a relatively mild nature. Even if it cannot be fully absorbed at once, the excess life force will be stored in the body for later absorption, so it is not a big problem.

"Come on, let me see how much it can be strengthened."
