Beast Taming: I can evolve indefinitely

Chapter 317 The Second King-Level

"Wow, that's amazing!"

Seeing the wolf-headed man's fierce attack, Bai Qi couldn't help but click his tongue and glance at Beta beside him.

They're both wolves, so why is there such a big difference between them?

Huh?

(Is it my fault?)

Beta rolled her eyes in annoyance. Shouldn't the question of whether a pet is strong or not be asked of the beast tamer?

"But what exactly is this thing? It can even beat up legendary creatures. Could it be something from mythology?"

As the wolf-headed man slowly rose and turned his gaze to Alpha, Bai Qi quietly summoned Alpha back to his side, while silently distancing himself from the wolf-headed man.

It's unclear whether the wolf-headed man is friend or foe, so it's best to keep a safe distance.

"Death Knight, return!"

Seeing his pet beast instantly killed, the man immediately tried to summon it back, but the wolf-headed man was clearly unwilling to let him go so easily. Before the death knight could even get up, he stomped on it again.

This time, however, the Death Knight was clearly on guard. As the werewolf stepped down, he used his hands to catch it, then rolled to the side to avoid it.

The Death Knight, having adjusted his movements, returned to the man. The mask, distorted by the werewolf's powerful blow, continuously emitted a dark, deathly power, making him appear somewhat eerie.

Upon seeing the power of death, the werewolf's aura became dangerous. With a light step of his right foot, he instantly appeared in front of the death knight, wielding his scepter and smashing it down at the death knight.

Upon seeing this, the Death Knight immediately drew his greatsword to fight, but he was still unable to change the situation of being crushed by the werewolf and was quickly defeated.

"Damn it, I have no choice but to give up on the Death Knight."

Seeing this, the man gritted his teeth and was about to abandon the Death Knight and retreat when the temple suddenly shook violently. Several cracks appeared on the pyramid at the top, and streams of black mist emerged from them, like tentacles groping around for something.

Holy crap, that thing really came out?

Bai Qi felt a chill run down his spine as he looked at the familiar black mist.

howl……

Upon seeing this, the wolf-headed man immediately abandoned his plan to kill the death knight. He leaped towards the top of the pyramid, brandishing his scepter and severing all the black mist tentacles. At the same time, he placed one hand on the pyramid, and the dark gold energy began to repair it with all its might.

Roar!

Seemingly sensing the wolf-headed man's intentions, the black mist let out a resentful roar and attempted to attack him, but it was easily repelled by the wolf-headed man's scepter.

Finally, the cracks in the pyramid were completely repaired, and the black mist serpent was driven back. However, the wolf-headed man seemed to have suffered considerable losses, and his once robust body had become much more transparent.

The wolf-headed man landed back on the ground, glanced at the empty corner, and then turned his gaze to Alpha beside him.

"Damn it, when did that guy get away?"

Bai Qi cursed inwardly upon seeing this. Judging from the behavior just now, this wolf-headed man was obviously targeting the power of death. Now that the Death Knight and the Black Mist Serpent were not around, he naturally set his sights on Alpha, the only one who possessed the power of death.

Seeing this, Alpha had no intention of sitting idly by. It deployed its death field and unleashed all its skills at the wolf-headed man as if they were free, but even hitting the wolf-headed man was difficult.

"Beta, find an exit quickly! We're no match for him!"

Awoo awoo!

(I've been searching with all my might!)

Beta's vertical pupils shone brightly as he tried to find the exit, while Shuke unleashed his Mechanical Lord, bombarding the wolf-headed man relentlessly. Gamma and Delta, on the other hand, were also doing their utmost to try and stop the wolf-headed man.

"I'll help too!"

Feng Ye naturally realized that the wolf-headed man's target was Alpha, so he immediately sent earth elementals to help. Li Xusheng was not to be outdone and joined in stopping the wolf-headed man.

Even though the wolf-headed man's condition had declined, he was still incredibly powerful to Alpha and the others. Almost no one could survive a single encounter with him.

"Dean, aren't we going to help?"

Seeing Bai Qi and his group looking utterly pathetic in front of the wolf-headed men, Lilith suddenly asked a question.

"No need, or rather, there's no point in helping."

Dean shook his head and said, "The legendary guardians of the underworld are someone even angels must take very seriously. We're just causing trouble."

"Moreover, its targets are only certain specific creatures."

As he spoke, Dean glanced deeply at Alpha, who had been driven to the brink of despair by the werewolf-headed men, a strange light flashing in his eyes.

It's a pity that he wasn't the one to purify this heretic.

Rumble...

Just as Alpha was about to make a desperate last stand, the temple shook again, the surrounding torches suddenly dimmed, and the wolf-headed man's already transparent body became illusory.

Huh?

(I think I saw something?)

Beta's eyes lit up, and his golden vertical pupils seemed to see something through the wolf-headed man's body. After receiving Beta's message, Alpha and the other pets rushed towards the wolf-headed man and captured him. Shuke, on the other hand, activated his electromagnetic cannon and locked onto the dark golden heart in the wolf-headed man's chest.

boom!

The electromagnetic cannon fired, and the power of lightning and flames pierced through the wolf-headed man's body, but the wolf-headed man was unharmed, and his dark gold heart was also intact.

On the contrary, the behavior of Alpha's pets seemed to have angered the wolf-headed man. Originally targeting only Alpha, it no longer held back against Gamma and Delta, swinging its scepter and sending them all flying.

Before the wolf-headed man could completely deal with these annoying little insects, Beta's head suddenly appeared in front of him, and the golden light in its vertical pupils made the wolf-headed man instinctively stop its counterattack.

Awooo!

Seeing this, a cunning glint flashed in Beta's eyes. Suddenly, he opened his mouth wide and bit down on the wolf-headed man's dark gold heart, swallowing it whole.

howl!!!

The wolf-headed man, having lost his heart, let out a mournful howl, and his body once again turned into shadow and gradually dissipated.

"Is that all?"

Bai Qi stared dumbfounded at the suddenly vanished wolf-headed man, then quickly walked up to the husky and said, "Beta, how come you dare to swallow anything? Is there anything strange about it?"

Awoo awoo?

(A strange feeling? I feel great, I've never felt this good before.)

As he spoke, Beta began to frolic around the temple, his energy even greater than before he entered.

Before Bai Qi could even breathe a sigh of relief, Beta's expression suddenly froze, and she fell to the ground with her tongue sticking out.

You really can't just eat anything!

Seeing this, Bai Qi quickly stepped forward, preparing to activate the Evolution Egg, but the husky suddenly got up on its own and looked at Bai Qi indifferently.

In a daze, Bai Qi seemed to see that wolf-headed man again.

"Holy crap, have I been possessed?"

Bai Qi felt a chill run down his spine, and then an unfamiliar figure echoed in his mind.

The voice was calm and indifferent, but not in a cold indifference to life.

"It's not possession; I am still me."

The husky walked up to Bai Qi, tilted its head to look at Shuke beside it, and said, "Like Shuke, I am a split consciousness that was separated from Beta's consciousness. Master, you don't need to worry."

Is she having another mental breakdown?

Bai Qi looked bewildered, but still a little worried, and asked, "Is it because of the heart you just ate?"

The husky nodded and said, "Strictly speaking, that's not a heart, but just an external manifestation of some mysterious power. However, I was indeed born because of it."

Bai Qi understood upon hearing this and was about to check on the husky's condition when a dazzling light of evolution suddenly enveloped the husky's entire body.

Is this... evolution?

Bai Qi was taken aback when he saw this, but was quickly filled with ecstasy.

The husky is already a high-ranking lord, wouldn't it evolve again...?

King-level!!!

"This is a huge profit!"

Although it's still unclear what form the Cordyceps will evolve into, the fact that the Husky can evolve to the King level is already worth the price of admission.

"Is this feeling...like a monarch?"

Upon seeing the husky's sudden change in behavior, Dean and the others' expressions all changed.

Bai Qi already had a monarch-level creature, and now, after such a short time, is he about to have a second one?

At this moment, Bai Qi ignored all other thoughts and focused all his attention on the husky. The other pets also gathered around the husky, waiting for the husky to finish evolving.

Crackling.

(This aura is very similar to that of the wolf-headed man from before.)

Click-clack?

(Will Beta evolve into that form too? A two-headed werewolf?)

Bubbling.

(Delta thinks Beta might grow a third head, like a three-headed dog?)

……

The three pets discussed amongst themselves, while Bai Qi felt a jolt as streams of information, accompanied by a warm current, flowed into his soul.

[Skill Name]: Heart of Death

[Skill Level]: Super

【Skill Introduction】: Transformation type, can transform the user into the guardian of the underworld, and the heart of death will guide them to defeat any enemy who tries to resist.

……

A super skill right off the bat?

The guardian of the underworld, could it be that it has transformed into the wolf-headed man from before?

Wow, that sounds amazing! Shuke and Beta won't need to rely on the Mechanical Lord to forcibly mimic a werewolf form anymore.

Bai Qi was quite satisfied with the thought that the husky would soon have powerful melee combat abilities. In this way, the husky would truly have a full range of skills, including ranged, mid-range, and melee combat.

Just as Bai Qi was immersed in the husky's future battle form, a message flooded into his mind.

[Skill Name]: Soul Blessing

[Skill Level]: Super

[Skill Introduction]: Soul type, empowers oneself with the power of the soul, so even ordinary physical attacks can cause direct damage to the soul.

……

"This skill is way too effective against the undead..."

Upon reading the description of the blessing from the dead, Bai Qi couldn't help but smack his lips.

After being enhanced, even physical attacks can damage the soul. No wonder the werewolf's normal attack could cause so much damage to the Death Knight.

The heart of death combined with the blessing of the dead—is this the power of the guardian of the underworld?

Bai Qi grinned and eagerly began to examine the last piece of information.

For those advancing to the Monarch level, the last thing to do is naturally the force field skill.
