Beast Taming: I can evolve indefinitely

Chapter 382 Evil Serpent Sculpture

Nicholas's words echoed Bai Qi's thoughts. After seeing that his two pet beasts were safe and sound, he immediately asked.

"Alpha, Jerry, how did you sense the true form of this giant snake?"

Crackling.

(intuition.)

Jerry: "Just guessing."

Bai Qi: "...Can you be serious for once?"

Crackling.

(Boss, it really is my intuition. Although this giant snake is well hidden, I'm pretty sure the killing intent isn't coming from those two venomous pythons.)

Jerry nodded and said, "The difference in the strength of the souls and power of these two venomous pythons is too great, which is obviously suspicious, so I made a bold guess."

"I see."

Bai Qi understood immediately and gestured for Nicholas to step forward. Looking at the enormous snake body before him, he asked, "Is this guy dead now?"

Crackling.

(I destroyed his brain and heart; he should be dead.)

Awoo awoo!

(You stinking bone, I was the one who killed his soul first!)

The two pets glared at each other, then simultaneously turned their heads away, ignoring each other.

"Alright, Alpha was able to easily handle the attacks of the three venomous pythons and kill them with one blow, which is a great performance. Dog and you guys were able to anticipate the giant snake's movements and snipe it in time, which is also very good. Let's call this a draw."

Seeing the two pets in such a state, Bai Qi immediately stepped forward to comfort them. However, when he heard Bai Qi mention a draw, Beta immediately bristled.

Awoo awoo!

(A draw? I don't want a draw with that stinky bone!)

Crackling sounds...

(Oh……)

Alpha elegantly ignored the husky, which became increasingly frantic, completely oblivious to Bai Qi's smirk.

"Human, are you doing this on purpose?"

The cowhide snake rolled its eyes, while Bai Qi feigned ignorance and said, "Intentionally? What do you mean by intentionally? I don't understand."

These guys have been so laid-back for so long, it's a rare opportunity to give them some motivation, so how could Bai Qi miss it?

Wow, it's rare to see a beast tamer like him who pays such close attention to the psychology of their pets.

Snap snap snap!

(Master, master, can Gamma eat him now!)

Gamma hopped and jumped around the giant serpent, wishing he could swallow it whole.

"It's too wasteful to eat such a big snake directly. Let's see if there's any material worth processing first."

Bai Qi shook his head. Gamma sensed a demonic aura in the venomous python earlier, so there's a high probability that this giant snake has related resources. Eating it directly would be a complete waste.

Awoo awoo!

(Even though this snake is dead, why does the surrounding area still smell so bad? No, I think it smells even worse!)

"It smells even worse now?"

Bai Qi was taken aback upon hearing this. He looked around and indeed found that the poisonous fog around him had not only not dissipated, but was actually becoming even denser.

"So, this giant snake wasn't the source of the poison gas?"

Bai Qi's eyes narrowed as he looked at the spot where the giant snake had emerged, and said, "Delta, it's your turn now."

Bubbling.

(Yes, Master.)

Delta nodded and switched to his Tyrannomon form. With a powerful stomp of his thick legs, the ground shattered instantly.

[Skill Name]: Earth Tremor

[Skill Level]: Advanced

[Skill Introduction]: As the ruler of the earth, Tyrannomon has absolute control over the territory beneath its feet. All creatures that refuse to submit to it will be buried by the earth.

……

"Even without using Void Echoes, its destructive power is still extremely strong. I knew I made the right choice."

Bai Qi nodded in satisfaction, and Delta's condition immediately came to mind.

[Name]: Protomon (Delta) / Quetzalcoatlus / King Kong Ape / Dracobo / White-faced Neptune / Tyrannomon / Titanoboa

[Attribute]: None / Wind / Ground / Water / Ground / Ground / Ground

[Bloodline Level]: Mid-level Lord / Low-level Monarch / Low-level Monarch / Low-level Monarch / Low-level Monarch / Low-level Monarch

[Growth Level]: Tier 5, Level 2

[Skills]: Void Echo (Super - Mastery), Survival of the Fittest (Super - Perfect) / Hurricane Manipulation (Advanced - Mastery) / Vajra Body (Advanced - Mastery) / Dark Current Impact (Advanced - Mastery) / Venom Return (Advanced - Proficient) / Earthquake Tremor (Advanced - Proficient) / Death Coil (Advanced - Proficient)

[Energy Value]: 8E1100W

[Status]: Can Evolve

……

Considering the unique nature of Void Echoes, in addition to the original three forms of land, sea, and air, Delta's subsequent choices were all power-type characters, which are also the forms that best utilize the effects of Void Echoes.

"It's a pity we haven't found a way to evolve it into a monarch-level beast yet, otherwise Delta might be the strongest of all the pets."

A hint of regret flashed across Bai Qi's face, but his attention was then diverted by the changes before him.

As the ground was broken by the Delta, more poisonous fog escaped from underground, and wherever it passed, everything from venomous snakes to trees was visibly eroded.

Then, death.

"So, this is indeed the source of the toxin."

Bai Qi grinned, and Gamma, the team's expert in detoxification, immediately stepped forward, unleashing her vampiric aura to desperately absorb the poison. Delta also switched to her White-faced Armored Elephant form to help from the side.

Their abilities allow them to use toxins as food, essentially restoring mana and health.

The ground collapse was larger than Bai Qi and the others had anticipated. Once everything settled, a large crater about 100 meters in diameter appeared on the ground.

The pit was very deep, and some eggshells, smashed by rubble, could be vaguely seen next to the fallen snake.

Clearly, the venomous snakes in the Green Dragon Secret Realm all hatched from here.

In the center of the pit was a huge green pool of poison.

The poison pool was constantly bubbling with green bubbles like lava, and it was obvious how dangerous it was just by looking at it. However, Bai Qi and the others were completely drawn to the green snake-shaped sculpture in the center of the poison pool.

Evil energy!

Bai Qi's eyes lit up, while Gamma could no longer suppress his inner desire and pounced directly on the serpentine stone sculpture.

"Gamma, let's wait until we've confirmed the situation before we eat!"

Seeing this, Bai Qi quickly reached out to stop him, and Alpha immediately flashed out, nimbly grabbing Gamma and trying to bring him back.

Snap snap snap!

(Gamma is hungry, Gamma wants to eat!)

Seeing the food so close yet being disturbed by Alpha, Gamma suddenly became agitated, a fel flame erupting from his body, and his form gradually grew larger, as if trying to break free from Alpha's control.

At the same time, the serpentine stone sculpture below also showed signs of abnormality, gradually emitting an ominous green light that echoed the gamma.

"Damn it, is it affected by fel energy?"

Bai Qi covered his head with one hand, feeling the chaotic emotions emanating from Gamma, and shouted to Nicholas beside him, "Nicholas, use your domain to suppress that thing!"

"good!"

Nicholas nodded, and the Emerald Domain instantly expanded, enveloping the entire pit.

Before the powerful life force of the jade, the poison pool began to shrink at a visible speed, and the serpentine sculpture gradually lost its light, but it continued to sway, seemingly fighting against Nicholas.

"As expected of evil energy, it's actually able to hold its own against the domain for so long."

Seeing this, Bai Qi gritted his teeth, glanced at Gamma who was still going berserk, and said, "Nicholas, can you destroy that thing?"

"I'll give it a try."

Nicholas nodded and increased the power of the domain.

boom.

The serpentine sculpture shattered with a crash, and the eerie aura vanished abruptly, bringing Gamma back to his senses.

Click-clack?

(Alpha, what are you doing holding onto Gamma?)

Gamma looked at Alpha with some confusion, but after noticing the green marks on Alpha's body, he suddenly understood.

Click-clack?

(Is this fel energy? Did gamma just attack Alpha?)

Realizing he might have attacked his companion, Gamma panicked and quickly activated his aura to absorb the fel energy from Alpha.

Crackling.

(I'm fine, don't worry.)

Alpha flicked his arm, and all the remaining evil energy on his body was washed away, leaving his crystal skeleton completely unharmed.

Crystal Bone Dragons are immune to all abnormal statuses. As a monarch-level creature, Alpha, even with his unique fel energy, is not a threat to him for the time being.

"It's good that you're alright, but it seems we can't touch this fel energy for the time being."

Bai Qi glanced warily at the snake-shaped sculpture that had already shattered into pieces and fallen into the poisonous pool. He had been hoping that Gamma would absorb more fel energy materials for future use, but before it could even absorb them, Gamma had already been affected.

Tsk, looks like I need to improve the Holy Light attribute first, otherwise who knows if I'll be able to suppress it next time we encounter it.

Perhaps because the Evil Serpent Carving was broken, the poison pool that had been continuously emitting poisonous gas became still, and even the surrounding land gradually regained its vitality under the shroud of the Emerald Domain.

"Nicholas, have you regained control of the secret realm?"

Bai Qi looked around and asked.

"Well, most places have recovered, but this generation can't fully control them yet."

Nicholas carefully sensed the situation before turning his gaze to the pool of poison in front of him.

"A poison pool alone isn't enough? Does it mean we have to remove all the venom?"

Bai Qi nodded slightly, glanced at the nearly empty poison pool, and said, "In that case, let the wooden sword servant absorb it and see if it can advance further."

"no problem."

Nicholas nodded and did not refuse.

The thought that he would no longer see those terrifying venomous snakes in the Green Dragon Secret Realm filled Nicholas with joy. He was even willing to share the Green Dragon Secret Realm with Bai Qi, let alone absorb the venom.

Buzzing...

Just then, a series of bubbles suddenly rose from the poison pool, and Alpha and the other five pets immediately went on alert. Nicholas also prepared to activate the Emerald Domain again.

Then, a small gray snake emerged from the venomous pool.

"Huh? Why are you all looking at me like that? I found it down there, cough cough..."

The bullskin snake looked at Bai Qi and the others with puzzled expressions, completely unaware of what had happened. Just as it was about to share its observations, it suddenly coughed violently, and a green pebble was spat out of its mouth, landing directly on Gamma.

Click?

Gamma stared in confusion at the green rubble that was slowly merging into his body. Before he could react, a burst of green flame suddenly erupted.

Felfire!
