Beast Taming: I can evolve indefinitely

Chapter 315 Sunbeetle

The stairs of the Tower of Babel seemed endless. After walking for a while and realizing that he was still far from the top, Bai Qi gave up on climbing the tower.

"Beta, can you sense the location of the top of the tower?"

Awoo awoo.

(This dog can sense that there seems to be some kind of special creature up there, but this dog doesn't really want to go up.)

Beta glanced at the faint golden light overhead, but two completely different feelings welled up inside him.

A warmth, like the sunshine.

A chilling feeling, like the end of the world.

"I see. So, there might be some kind of danger up there?"

Bai Qi fell into deep thought, and the image of the two colossal serpents from before involuntarily popped into his mind.

They probably wouldn't swim up the Tower of Babel, would they?

Bai Qi couldn't help but shudder at the thought of the "warm" welcome he might receive upon reaching the top of the tower.

"Delta, maintain your resonance with the void, be ready to run at any time."

Bubbling.

(Rest assured, Master, Delta is ready.)

Delta nodded, and faint spatial ripples could be seen around his body, indicating that he could enter a state of void resonance at any time.

Finally, under Bai Qi's expectant yet nervous gaze, the man and his five pets reached the top of the tower. A ray of warm sunlight shone on Bai Qi's face, sweeping away his fatigue and calming his somewhat turbulent emotions.

Bai Qi looked in the direction of the sunlight and was shocked to find a golden beetle, its entire body radiating a sun-like light, perched on the top of the tower. The sunlight had also been emanating from the beetle.

"This is... a sun beetle?"

A look of surprise appeared on Bai Qi's face. A mythical creature, a mythical creature that had supposedly disappeared for thousands of years, and he had actually seen it!

However, this surprise only lasted for a moment before Bai Qi quickly noticed something was wrong.

Although the golden beetle in front of him felt much stronger than the legendary creature, it wasn't to the point of worshipping him. In fact, Bai Qi felt that the beetle in front of him was similar to the golden statue in the temple before.

"Could it be another entrance to some secret realm...?"

Bai Qi's eyes twitched. Obelisk, Golden Sea, Tower of Babel—he had already passed through three entrances. If he were to continue to the next secret realm, he would start to doubt whether he was still in the multiple dreams of the Cordyceps.

Thinking of this, Bai Qi looked at the cordyceps with suspicion, only to find that the cordyceps was looking at the golden beetle in front of it with longing, and its body was unconsciously moving towards the golden beetle.

Awoo awoo.

(Human, this looks like just a beetle shell.)

Beta was the first to notice the problem with the sun beetle in front of him. After examining it, he indeed saw a tiny crack on the beetle's abdomen.

Bai Qi was somewhat disappointed. He had thought he would finally see a legendary creature, but it turned out to be just an outer shell.

But that's fine too. If it were a living legendary creature, he really wouldn't know what to do with it.

Bai Qi walked up to the shell of the sun beetle, and after confirming that there was no danger, he curiously placed his hand on the shell.

"I knew it..."

Seeing the evolutionary egg's progress remain unchanged, Bai Qi once again confirmed the pets' opinions and became excited again.

Although the material catalog obtained from the Evolution Egg is ineffective against beetle shells, the beetle shells shed from mythical creatures can't be any worse than legendary resources, right?

Even higher?

Thinking of this, Bai Qi immediately wanted to take it into the secret realm base, but forgot that the secret realm could not be opened here.

"Never mind, Alpha, uh... Delta, you can do it. Put this bug shell away first."

Looking at the sun beetle shell that still exuded the power of the sun, Bai told Delta to put it away first and study how to use it later.

The sun beetle shell seemed to lie there casually, not even resisting Bai Qi and the others' touch, but when Delta tried to move it, it was as if Mount Tai was pressing down on it, and it couldn't move at all.

"Gamma, Shuke Beta, both of you, attack together."

Seeing this, Bai Qi immediately ordered the other pets to work together, and even Shuke activated the super-powered thrusters, but they still couldn't move the Sun Wheel Beetle's shell even an inch.

"Useless, useless..."

Bai Qi was having a headache. Even if the three pets worked together, they couldn't move them. Even if they managed to push them, they couldn't run away with them. But Bai Qi was definitely unwilling to let them give up like that.

"Or should we just use it?"

Bai Qi hesitated for a moment before looking at the Cordyceps beside him. As the only pet in the team with the insect-type attribute, the ownership of the Sunwheel Beetle Shell was self-evident. However, even legendary resources like the Green Dragon Scale indicated a low absorption rate, so the absorption rate of the Sunwheel Beetle Shell, being an organ of a mythical creature, would probably be even lower.

"Never mind, absorbing less is better than absorbing nothing. I'll go for it. Gamma, get ready to heal me."

Looking at the beetle shell that was still radiating warm sunlight, Bai Qi made up his mind, grabbed the cordyceps and threw it up, and then activated the Evolution Egg.

boom!

Almost instantly, Bai Qi knelt down, but before Gamma could provide support, the Sunbeetle Shell released a warm golden light that fell on Bai Qi, quickly restoring his strength.

With the help of the Sunbeetle shell, Bai Qi successfully condensed the Platinum Egg. His body was not tired at all; on the contrary, he was even more energetic than before.

"Uh, what is this? Helping outsiders swallow themselves up?"

Bai Qi scratched his head in confusion, but considering that the cordyceps was about to merge with the bloodline of a mythical creature, he stopped worrying about it.

Will he finally have a mythical creature too?

boom!

Just then, the Tower of Babel suddenly shook violently, and the walls that had been radiating golden light gradually dimmed, replaced by endless darkness... and death!

Crackling!

(Boss, it's the power of death!)

Seeing the Alpha team standing ready, Bai Qi was somewhat taken aback.

What happened to the promised Sun Realm? Why is there death power instead?!

"Shuke and Beta, take the cordyceps egg, Delta, get ready to run away!"

Sensing the dangerous aura emanating from the base of the tower, Bai Qi made a decisive move, grabbing the Platinum Egg and preparing to flee.

boom!

With a loud bang, the top of the Tower of Babel was suddenly ripped open, and two huge heads, one black and one white, poked their heads in. Upon seeing the sun beetle shell that had disappeared, a violent glint flashed in their vertical pupils.

Roar! ! !

The black, towering serpent roared to the sky and then burrowed into the Tower of Babel. However, its target was not Bai Qi, but rather it headed straight for the bottom of the tower. As for the white serpent, it seemed to sense something and suddenly changed direction, swimming towards the desert area.

Seeing the giant serpent's appearance, Bai Qi realized something and quickly rushed out of the tower from the top fault.

The white, towering serpent had swum far away and was almost invisible, but faint roars could still be heard, as if it were fighting an enemy.

At the same time, a wail came from below the tower, and the Tower of Babel shook violently, as if it would collapse at any moment.

"Looks like I've gotten myself into trouble..."

Bai Qi smacked his lips, and Beta seemed to have sensed something as well, his vertical pupils gleaming with golden light.

Awoo awoo!

(Human, this dog has noticed the entrance is open!)

"What are we waiting for? Let's get out of here!"

Upon hearing Beta's words, Bai Qi immediately headed back the way he came.

Although I don't know if this sun beetle shell is the legacy of the myth, given the current situation, my life is the most important thing.

Because they entered the void resonance state ahead of time, Delta returned to where they entered almost instantly, but Delta was also exhausted. The energy that was originally enough to fight twelve battles in a row was almost completely used up.

Seemingly sensing Beta's approach, the desert below transformed into a golden sea once more, and Bai Qi, along with his five pets, charged towards it without hesitation.

Just as the group was about to completely disappear into the golden sea, the Tower of Babel exploded. A black mist, like a long snake, emerged from the ground and snaked its way towards the sky, while the sun in the sky gradually dimmed.

Is the Tower of Babel a seal?

Upon seeing the black mist serpent, Bai Qi felt a chill run down his spine and understood the purpose of the Tower of Babel. But before he could think about it further, the golden sea completely swallowed him up and then turned back into a desert.

At this moment, the black mist serpent seemed to have sensed something and quickly swam towards the entrance. During its flight, a black shadow fell from its body, which turned out to be the skeleton of the serpent.

Who else could it be but the Black Sky Serpent!

The black mist serpent circled above the desert for a long time, but could not find an exit. It could only let out a silent roar before turning its attention to the white sky serpent.

It was so hungry.

……

The Golden Temple.

Li Xusheng looked wary as he stared at the martial spirits opposite him, which resembled both undead and living beings. Beside him stood Dean and the others.

"I didn't expect that a Beast Soul Master could infiltrate the Sun Secret Realm. Could there be another entrance?"

As the twelfth contestant to enter, Feng Ye was forced into the battle before he even had a chance to check his surroundings, and couldn't help but complain.

They barely managed to suppress the heavy artillery thanks to the runes Bai Qi had rushed to make overnight, and successfully broke into the sequence. But before they even had a chance to explore, they were already fighting with this group of beast souls. It would be a lie to say they weren't frustrated.

"You should ask Karl about this. Surely the Ishu family wouldn't be unaware of whether there's a back door to their own secret realm?"

As soon as Dean said this, everyone's attention turned to the members of the Ishu family, and Karl's expression immediately turned ugly.

"The appearance of the obelisk in the Ishu family was a coincidence; we don't know how the beast soul master got in."

Carlton paused for a moment, then said, "The most urgent task is to deal with these beast soul masters."

Everyone nodded in agreement, and the beast spirit master on the other side also made a move.

The war is about to start.

what! ! !

Just then, a scream suddenly came from above. Both sides looked up and were shocked to see one person with five pets—no, it should be one person with four pets and an egg—falling down from the sky and crashing into the Beast Soul Master's team.

"That's... Bai Qi?!"
