Beast Taming: I can evolve indefinitely

Chapter 363 Dark Armored Sword Cavalry

As the light of evolution appeared, the surrounding shadow power also converged towards the Six Swordsmen, gradually forming a shadow tornado around them, completely obscuring their figures.

"Alpha, how are the Six Swordsmen doing? Are they evolving smoothly?"

With Alpha in between, Bai Qi's connection with the Six Swordsmen was not strong, and he could not clearly sense the changes in the Six Swordsmen. But given the scale of the event, they should not have failed.

Crackling.

(It's evolving, but...)

As Alpha finished speaking, the light of evolution suddenly dissipated, and the shadow tornado gradually dissipated, revealing the figures of the six sword servants within.

No, he shouldn't be a swordsman anymore.

At this moment, all six sword servants had mounted their warhorses. However, apart from the Dark Armor Sword Servant, the warhorses of the other five sword servants were just ordinary skeletons. The Dark Armor Sword Servant's warhorse, on the other hand, was dressed in a thick layer of black armor, with a giant chain sword hanging on its back. Even from a distance, it gave people a strong sense of oppression.

"What's going on? There are still differences after evolution?"

Bai Qi was somewhat surprised to see this, and Alpha finally finished saying what he had said.

Crackling.

(Boss, only the Dark Armor Sword Servant has evolved; the other sword servants seem to be stuck on the verge of evolution.)

"Stuck? There are bottlenecks in pet evolution?"

Bai Qi was taken aback upon hearing this, and walked over to the Dark Armor Sword Servant to carefully sense his surroundings.

【name】:???

[Attribute]: Shadow

[Bloodline Level]: Low-ranking Lord

[Description]: A knight who runs through the shadowy lands, whose massive chain sword can not only attack head-on, but also launch attacks on enemies from all sorts of unpredictable angles.

……

"As expected, he has been promoted to lord."

Bai Qi nodded in satisfaction, then looked at the other sword servants, but they had only changed their forms; their bloodline levels and even their race names remained unchanged.

"Is it because there's no corresponding attribute here, so it's impossible to break through?"

Bai Qi couldn't help but feel a little regretful upon hearing this. If they could break through at the same time, it would be equivalent to gaining six more lord-level creatures.

As Alpha's contracted squires, the Six Swordsmen's combat power far exceeds that of Cordyceps's seven-headed parasitic beast.

"Never mind, at least I know the general direction now."

Bai Qi sighed, looked at the dark-armored swordsman in front of him whose appearance had changed drastically, pondered for a moment, and said, "Now that he has been upgraded to a knight, let's call him the Dark-Armored Swordsman."

Tap tap tap...

Upon hearing Bai Qi give him a new name, the Dark Armored Sword Cavalry seemed very happy, bowing respectfully to Bai Qi. The Shadow Warhorse also excitedly kicked its hooves in place, showing its joy.

"Alright, the Nightmare Knight is dealt with. Everyone, hurry up and recover in case any other enemies appear."

Although the battle just now looked easy, all five pets consumed a lot of energy. If they encounter any more powerful enemies, it will be more troublesome.

After all, there are already thirteen low-ranking monarch-level Nightmare Knights; there's no way the later ones could possibly appear...

Cough cough, I'd better not think about it anymore. It seems like I've recently entered a passive phase where my wishes come true, whether good or bad. I shouldn't let myself get into trouble.

Bai Qi interrupted his thoughts, looking at the several pet beasts that were obviously tired. After thinking for a moment, he put Gamma, Delta, and Cordyceps into an egg.

The shadow power here is dense, and Alpha, Jerry, and the Six Swordsmen's recovery speed is far beyond normal. Since they are not consuming power beyond their level, it is better to recover normally. In case of an accident, they can still save the day.

"Alpha, keep an eye on things, I'm going to take a break."

After absorbing several evolution eggs in succession, Bai Qi was clearly feeling somewhat tired, so he immediately sat cross-legged and began to meditate to recover.

The leap from the fifth to the sixth rank is quite significant, so Bai Qi is seizing every opportunity to accelerate his improvement, hoping to reach the sixth rank as soon as possible.

Only then will he be qualified to run around freely.

……

Hill of the Dead.

Bai Heguang rode the Nine Netherworld Sparrow and slowly descended from the sky, looking solemnly at the Great Tomb of Dusk before him.

"How long has Bai Qi been inside?"

"It's been more than a day now."

President Qin also frowned and said, "Professor Dong is already working hard to decipher the introductory runes, but it will take at least two more days."

"Um."

Bai Heguang nodded and remained silent, but Chairman Qin couldn't contain himself any longer and asked, "Heguang, can we force it open?"

"Other secret realms might be possible, but the Great Tomb of the Lich King is different. If Bai Qi tries to break through by force, he will be in danger instead."

Bai Heguang said, "This large tomb is probably older than the Twin Towers, yet it is still very well preserved. It must have been renovated later. If I'm not mistaken, it should be from the time of the French Emperor."

Upon hearing this, President Qin suddenly realized and said, "So, the Dharma Emperor may have already explored it, and there might be a protective mechanism left behind by the Dharma Emperor?"

"That's most likely the case."

"That's good."

Hearing Bai Heguang's words, Chairman Qin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Don't worry so much. That kid's master pet has the power of shadow. Unless he encounters an imperial creature, no other creature can threaten him."

The Nine Netherworld Sparrow suddenly spoke up, saying, "Moreover, that kid's pet beasts are all abnormal. Don't treat him like a child. You should be grateful that this guy hasn't torn this place down."

"That... seems to make some sense."

Hearing the words of the Nine Netherworld Sparrow, President Qin felt much less pressure.

Come to think of it, Bai Qi is a guy who demolishes things wherever he goes. Luo Xiang was also good at demolishing things back then, but he only demolished secret realms. Bai Qi, on the other hand, even demolishes his own association.

Thinking of this, President Qin felt much more at ease, but instead began to worry about the creatures in the Twilight Great Tomb.

It's unclear what benefits the subsequent beast tamers will receive after Bai Qi finishes his exploration.

Rumble...

Just then, the Great Tomb of Twilight suddenly shook violently, and the previously deathly silent entrance suddenly lit up with light.

"This kid, could he really be destroying the secret realm...?"

President Qin was taken aback by what he saw, but Bai Heguang immediately seized the opportunity, mounted the Nine Netherworld Sparrow, and entered the gate.

The changes in the Great Tomb came and went quickly; the moment Bai and Guang entered the gate, it fell silent once more.

"What's going on? The entrance opened and then closed?"

President Qin ran to the entrance and asked Professor Dong.

"I don't know either. It seems that something else activated the entrance to the Great Tomb."

Professor Dong frowned. Although deciphering the secret realm was not her main profession, she could naturally detect the anomaly with her expertise in runes.

It appears that another entrance to this great tomb has been opened.

……

The Great Tomb at Dusk.

The third layer.

After resting, Bai Qi and his five pets continued their journey. However, apart from some skeletons emerging from the ground or ghosts appearing out of nowhere, they did not encounter any powerful enemies along the way.

"Could it be that they saw the Nightmare Knight get defeated and are hiding now?"

Bai Qi had a bit of a headache. The Twilight Great Tomb wasn't the kind of secret realm built by legendary human beast tamers for inheritance or trials. It even assigned you a secret realm guardian to guide you.

Given the size of the third floor, if someone like Bai Qi were to wander around like a headless fly, who knows how long it would take to find the real gatekeeper.

Awoo awoo...

(It must have sensed my powerful aura, so it hid!)

Beta raised his head, his face full of arrogance, leaving Shuke and Jerry speechless.

Sometimes, I really don't want to admit that this thing is their dominant consciousness.

"Have you no shame?"

Bai Qi punched Beta hard and glanced around.

It's all bones, nothing but bones.

"Wandering aimlessly around this crappy place isn't going to work, Shuke. Is the scout bee still not up to par?"

Shuke shook his head and said, "The concentration of shadow power here is too high. If the scout bees fly too far, they won't be able to receive information, and if they fly close, it's pointless."

"Tsk, this is really troublesome. I wish we could launch satellites."

Bai Qi scratched his head. Satellites that can ignore the effects of various energies are of a high level, and the most representative of them is the Net that covers the skies above the Federation.

Through his studies with Professor Chu these past few days, Bai Qi has also learned about the Luo Net's ability to monitor such a large area, which has truly made him incredibly envious.

[Skill Name]: All-Seeing Eye

[Skill Level]: Legendary

[Skill Introduction]: A skill that only legendary machines can master, capable of detecting the movements of all forms of matter and living beings within its coverage area.

……

This skill specifically requires a legendary level, so Bai Qi, though tempted, could only look at it from afar.

"Hey leader, how about letting my parasite go? I should be able to control it from a distance."

Seeing Bai Qi's helpless expression, Cordyceps volunteered and offered her suggestions.

Anyway, these parasites were all provided by Bai Qi, so even if they died or were damaged, Bai Qi would definitely replace them again.

Who knows, Bai Qi might even provide a better host.

"It seems this is the only way now."

Bai Qi sighed and was about to have Cordyceps send out its parasitic beasts when Alpha, who was walking ahead, suddenly stopped, squatted down, and quietly sensed it for a while.

Crackling.

(Boss, I have a feeling there was a fight going on here.)

"There's a fight going on? Are you sure it's not just a conflict between the undead?"

Bai Qi was taken aback upon hearing this.

Crackling.

(Although very faint, it was definitely a human scent.)

Upon hearing this, Bai Qi immediately looked at Beta, while Beta guiltily turned his head away, inwardly cursing.

The shadow power in this godforsaken place is too dense, and it really didn't sense any danger. Who would be as cautious as that stinky bone?

Huh?

Just then, a golden light flashed from Beta's illusory pupil on his forehead, as he suddenly sensed something.

Awoo awoo!

(Humans, there's a very dangerous presence ahead! And we've encountered it before!)
