Beast Taming: I can evolve indefinitely

Chapter 365 Soul Transfer Curse

Huh?

(Human, what strange things are you saying now?)

Beta looked at Bai Qi curiously, not understanding what Bai Qi was talking about at all. However, Cordyceps, who had learned about many strange works from Bai Qi in the past, seemed to understand.

"I never expected that everything the leader taught me would be true. He even guessed the enemy's fighting style. As expected of the leader!"

Cordyceps looked at Bai Qi with admiration, his mind constantly guessing which other works would serve as a point of comparison.

Crackling.

(Boss, this Death Knight seems a bit different from the one we encountered last time.)

Alpha looked at the Death Knight who was being toyed with by the Nine Netherworld Sparrow and suddenly spoke.

"I've noticed that too."

Bai Qi nodded. Although the Death Knight he had found in the Sun Secret Realm had been beaten somewhat badly by the Netherworld Guardian, its sense of oppression was significantly stronger than that of the one in front of him.

However, the most crucial point is that the death power on the Death Knight in the Sun Realm seems to be purer than that of the one in front of us.

"This death knight doesn't seem to have its own soul; it feels like a puppet being remotely controlled."

Jerry also shared his opinion, saying, "However, I did not sense the existence of any other souls."

"A puppet? A legendary-level puppet?"

Bai Qi's eyes lit up, and he suddenly became interested in the Death Knight.

A legendary puppet that can be remotely controlled seems very worthy of study.

On the other side, the Nine Netherworld Sparrow also noticed the Death Knight's abnormality and immediately lost its playful mood, its Netherworld Domain suddenly unfolding.

In an instant, the world lost its color. The Death Knight, who had been acting like a madman, suddenly froze in place. With a gentle swipe of his claw, the Nine Netherworld Sparrow scattered the pieces of the Death Knight, which rolled all over the ground.

Seeing this, Bai Qi immediately ran back and said, "Teacher, this Death Knight..."

"I can see that; this is somewhat different from the one you encountered before."

Bai Heguang bent down, looking at the Death Knight in front of him, whose armor was no different from ordinary armor, and fell into deep thought.

Seeing this, Bai Qi wasted no time and immediately called Shuke to study it. Finally, they found a special rune inside the Death Knight's breastplate.

"I've never seen this kind of rune before?"

Although his study time was not long, Bai Qi had gained a fairly good understanding of runes, having dabbled in modern runes, Emperor runes, and primitive runes.

But Bai Qi had never seen the Death Knight wearing this before.

"Those aren't runes, they're curse marks."

Bai Heguang walked up to Bai Qi and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this should be a Soul-Binding Seal. Someone has entrusted their spiritual power to it, activating this Death Knight."

"A soul-binding curse?"

A glint of curiosity flashed in Bai Qi's eyes, while Shu Ke silently turned on the recording system, preparing to record every word Bai and Guang said.

"Strictly speaking, the curse seal is also a variant of the rune. It only appeared during the True Dynasty when alchemy was prevalent, and then it gradually disappeared."

Bai Heguang paused for a moment, then said, "The Truth Dynasty existed for a very short time, and it involved some taboo content, so these are not included in the history transmitted by the Federation."

"The Dynasty of Truth, Alchemy?"

Bai Qi became even more curious upon hearing this, but Bai Heguang didn't seem to have any intention of continuing to explain things to Bai Qi. Instead, he asked, "How did you discover this large tomb?"

"It was an accident, I suppose."

Bai Qi told Bai He Guang about his search for parasitic beasts outside and his discovery of the Twilight Great Tomb.

Of course, the lava people weren't overlooked either.

"The Great Tomb of Twilight, the French Emperor..."

Bai Heguang nodded and said, "Don't explore this secret realm for now. Let me find all the possible entrances and exits first."

"Okay, teacher."

Bai Qi nodded repeatedly. Although he really wanted Alpha and the Six Swordsmen to improve a bit more here, who knew if other Death Knights would come in? He couldn't guarantee that Bai and Guang would be able to arrive in time next time.

"By the way, teacher, you're coming here? Weren't you supposed to be dealing with that chain?"

Bai Heguang said, "That was originally the case. It was Chairman Qin who told me that you had accidentally entered a lich's great tomb, which is why I rushed here."

At this point, Bai Heguang couldn't help but look at the Death Knight beside him and said, "Originally, I wouldn't have been able to come in so early, but the entrance to the secret realm suddenly opened, which allowed me to enter. Otherwise, you would have had a very difficult time getting out this time."

"I suspect the Death Round Table might have some means to bypass the secret realm's defenses and freely enter and exit. I'll have someone investigate that thoroughly later."

"Teacher, is it possible that the other person has the talent to break through space?"

Bai Qi shared his opinion.

"It can't be ruled out, but we still need to investigate."

Bai Heguang looked at Bai Qi and said, "However, this also increases the risk of you going out alone. For the time being, you should stay in Gusu City. After you return to headquarters to submit your training results, I will think of a solution for you."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, teacher."

Bai Qi nodded, watching Bai Heguang put away the Death Knight's body. Suddenly, he remembered something and handed the third-level control rune he had just picked up to Bai Heguang, saying, "Teacher, this is the third-level control rune."

Bai Heguang took the control rune and examined it, saying, "A product from the Dark Emperor's era. This Twilight Great Tomb is even older than I thought. If it's developed, the rewards will be substantial."

With that, Bai Heguang tossed the control rune back to Bai Qi, saying, "Keep this. You can continue exploring after I've confirmed the safety of this place."

"OK."

Bai Qi put away the runes and asked, "Then, teacher, what do we do next? Go straight back?"

"President Qin and the others are very worried about you. You should go out first. I'll handle the rest."

After saying that, Bai and Guang mounted the Nine Netherworld Sparrow and headed off into the distance.

"The teacher's swift and unpredictable style is truly...something I can't imitate!"

Bai Qi smacked his lips and then activated the teleportation rune in his hand.

……

Hill of the Dead.

President Qin paced anxiously in place, staring at the motionless, ancient tomb at dusk.

Bai Heguang has been inside for almost half a day, but there has been no movement yet. Even though Bai Heguang is incredibly strong, the danger of the Great Tomb of the Lich King is extraordinary. If he misses the opportunity, Bai Qi will be in real danger.

Swish!

Just then, a flash of light appeared, the runes at the entrance of the tomb lit up again, and a figure appeared in front of President Qin.

"Oh, Chairman Qin, Professor Dong, and the other museum owners, are you all here?"

As soon as Bai Qigang appeared, he found himself surrounded by people.

"Nonsense! You never know when to settle down, how could we not come over!"

President Qin punched Bai Qi hard, saying, "You dare to trespass into the Great Tomb of the Lich King? Do you think you're some kind of legend?"

"Oh, nothing's wrong."

Bai Qi scratched his head, looking at Duan Meng and the others around him who were also looking at him with curiosity, but did not mention the Death Knight.

Seeing Bai Qi's appearance, President Qin guessed what had happened. He looked Bai Qi up and down a few times, and after confirming that Bai Qi was not injured, he said, "Go back and rest first. I will come to find you after I have settled things here."

"Okay."

Bai Qi nodded. Although he hadn't fought the Death Knights head-on, being subjected to the pressure of a legendary creature at such close range had left him feeling somewhat exhausted.

Go back and get some sleep before thinking about anything else.

Seeing Bai Qi leave, the Cao, Sun, and Liu families also lost interest in staying and took their leave from Chairman Qin.

"President Qin, let's go back together. We also have some things to discuss with Bai Qi."

Cao Bin said.

"Okay, then I'll leave it to the three of you."

President Qin was naturally aware of the Super God Evolution Research Institute's affairs and did not stop it.

Being able to get help from these three conglomerates is also a good thing for Bai Qi's future development.

The three left one after another, and Sima Jing, as if waking from a dream, looked at the group that had completely disappeared and said, "Then, President Qin, this junior will also take his leave."

"Okay, no need to see me out."

President Qin nodded and then ignored them. Sima Jing didn't care either, and silently summoned her pet beast to chase after the group.

……

Ancient Su City.

Bai Qi looked at the three people who had accompanied him back and said, "Thank you, three masters. I can go back by myself from now on."

Cao Bin and the other two nodded and said, "Alright, we won't bother you any longer. We'll contact you again once the construction plan for the Super God Evolution Research Institute is finalized."

"Okay, then I'll take my leave now."

Bai Qi nodded to the three of them, and then quickly headed towards his home.

Having been trapped in the Great Tomb of Twilight for so long, I wonder if my parents are worried.

Watching Bai Qi leave, Cao Bin and the other two remained silent for a long time.

"This kid is so troublesome, is it really okay to get involved with him?"

Sun Tian broke the silence, saying, "Aren't those old folks in the family the most concerned with stability?"

Liu Bei shook his head and said, "Bai Qi is destined to become a legend, but what he is most valuable for is his research ability. Haven't you seen how fast the Wuhou Consortium has developed recently?"

"Now that we've established a cooperative relationship with Bai Qi, there's no need to think about anything else. We just need to cooperate well."

Cao Bin said in a deep voice, "If we can establish a good cooperative relationship with the association through this, it will be of great benefit to the future of our three families."

"As for the Tsukatora Group, their attitude is unclear, so we need to be careful."

Upon hearing this, Liu Bei and Sun Tian both nodded, exchanged a glance, and then flew towards the direction of the Elf's Home.

The matter at the Super God Evolution Research Institute is not over yet, and they need to hurry up.

The Federation has been in turmoil lately, so these conglomerates naturally can't stay at ease either. Staying away from the dojo for so long isn't a long-term solution.
