Beast Taming: I can evolve indefinitely

Chapter 396 Applying Knowledge

The high temperature generated by the cordyceps also alarmed other extraordinary creatures in the Crimson Lotus World. Some began to worry, while others began to use their full strength.

"Damn it, is this guy's flame really fire?"

A lava lizard cursed as it left the Crimson Lotus World, its body covered in burn marks, but the lava flowing beneath its scales seemed frozen, emanating a chilling aura.

His opponent was Frostfire Mirror, the pet beast of Zero Team Ye Ge.

【Name】：Frostfire Mirror

[Attributes]: Ice, Fire

[Bloodline Level]: Mid-level Monarch

[Introduction]: An equipment-type creature, originally a pet born in flames, but it was corroded by extreme cold and merged with its own fire nature, giving birth to a brand new ice flame.

……

"It's actually ice flame?"

Bai Qi nodded slightly upon seeing this. Being able to inflict both freezing and fire damage on the enemy at the same time, the feeling of being hit by both ice and fire is not something everyone can endure.

After Frostfire Mirror defeated the enemy, Iris's Judgment Angel and Emperor Heart Lotus defeated their opponents almost simultaneously.

Then, along with Cordyceps, the four pet beasts launched another attack on their new opponent.

The core of the Trial of Fire is a race; whoever reaches the lotus pod first wins.

Waiting is undoubtedly a foolish thing to do.

Upon entering the third round of battle, regardless of whether they had defeated their opponents from the second round, the candles above the heads of all the extraordinary beings simultaneously changed, transforming into a spiraling, two-colored candle, and their mental energy was continuously depleted as the flame burned.

"Indeed, this is a race against time; one wrong step and you're behind at every step."

Seeing this, Bai Qi understood. Based on the current trend, the only ones who could compete with the Cordyceps for the final blessing were those three extraordinary creatures.

"Cordyceps, speed things up, let's clear the area."

"It's all prepared."

Cordyceps nodded, looking at its opponent who was getting agitated because the two-colored candles on his head were burning rapidly, and then simply fell asleep.

Longmian.

A powerful spiritual force emanated from the cordyceps, easily penetrating the soul of the enemy and effortlessly pulling them into a dream.

But it didn't stop there. After successfully hypnotizing an enemy, Cordyceps's mental power began to erode other extraordinary creatures in the Crimson Lotus World with the help of the two-colored candles.

Some creatures, whose energy, vitality, and mental strength were already severely depleted due to the intense battle, found their soul defenses crumbling upon the spiritual power of the cordyceps, which was imbued with the might of dragons and the aura of mythical species. They were forcibly dragged into the dream woven by the cordyceps.

Subsequently, the bewildered supernatural beings fought fiercely in the dream, and the two-colored candles above their heads melted away at a visible speed. Meanwhile, Cordyceps, the manipulator behind the dream, became increasingly energetic.

Dream weavers, of course, don't weave dreams for nothing.

Because of the intervention of the cordyceps, the rhythm of the Fire Trial changed again, and in an instant, only four pet beasts remained.

"Can this guy really raise every pet beast to be this strong?!"

Once Lilith calmed down, she realized that Bai Qi's strange insect was behind all of this. But the fact that the cordyceps could affect so many monarch-level creatures at the same time, even if they were in poor condition, was still quite shocking.

"Perhaps, this is Bai Qi's talent."

Dean looked thoughtfully at Ye Ge, who was already facing off against Cordyceps in the Crimson Lotus World, and said, "Let Team Zero help us see where Bai Qi's limit really is."

"I didn't expect to run into Team Zero so soon."

Bai Qi smacked his lips. Although it was only a matter of time before he wanted to compete for the blessing, he preferred to meet the Angel of Judgment first.

Compared to the unknown effects of the blessing, Bai Qi was more willing to believe in the effects of the angel wings. Although they weren't a pair, it was better than nothing.

"I hope Ellis can be like the character in the novel—ruthless and taciturn—and hopefully won't be eliminated prematurely."

Bai Qi prayed silently, while Ye Ge seemed to have no intention of wasting words with Bai Qi and directly commanded the Frostfire Mirror to launch an attack.

The Frostfire Mirror hovered in the air, swayed slightly, and a beam of icy blue light suddenly swept towards the cordyceps.

Click.

In an instant, the cordyceps was covered with a thick layer of frost, and before it could break free, a surge of high temperature swept into its body.

"Using Mirror Light to activate a skill? That's going too far."

Seeing this, Bai Qi couldn't help but grumble inwardly. It was clearly an ice flame, yet it used light to activate its skill, making it quite difficult to dodge.

However, because it had just been well nourished in the dream, the cordyceps' spiritual power was unprecedentedly abundant. The moment it was frozen, it directly burned the power of the sun to melt away the frost on the surface of its body. Then, it spread its wings and instantly arrived in front of the Frostfire Mirror.

However, the Frostfire Mirror seemed to have been prepared, retreating without hesitation and leaving countless frost mirrors in the path that the cordyceps would inevitably take.

It is conceivable that if Cordyceps touches these frost mirrors, it will inevitably be damaged by ice and flames again.

Moreover, after creating distance between itself and the Cordyceps, the Frostfire Mirror once again projected beams of light, but instead of attacking the Cordyceps, it shot them towards the Frost Mirror in front of it.

The mirror light refracted back and forth among countless frost mirrors, making it impossible to guess where the mirror light might launch an attack. Moreover, this trajectory became increasingly unpredictable as the Frostfire Mirror continued to create new frost mirrors.

Seeing this, the cordyceps simply stopped, silently hovering in the air, seemingly giving up the struggle.

But Ye Ge became wary upon seeing this and increased the attack frequency of the Frostfire Mirror once again.

buzzing...

A sound of insect wings vibrating gradually emerged, sometimes high, sometimes low. The high vibrations were so intense that even some king-level creatures felt uncomfortable, while the low vibrations were as silent as a mosquito flying by.

"This guy, could he be planning to...?"

Ye Ge seemed to understand something. Just as he was about to warn the Frostfire Mirror, the Frost Mirrors around the Cordyceps began to shatter one by one, and the speed at which they shattered increased, even exceeding the speed at which the Frostfire Mirror was created.

"If you master math, physics, and chemistry, you can go anywhere in the world without fear. It seems that Cordyceps' dreams these days haven't been in vain; he's even learned to use resonance."

Seeing this, Bai Qi nodded in satisfaction. Forcing a breakthrough was unwise, so outsmarting the opponent was the best approach.

As a mature pet beast, it should know how to think about tactics on its own and not rely on the beast tamer's commands.

The cordyceps has been successfully processed.

After the Frost Realm shattered, Cordyceps launched its own attack, breaking through to the Frostfire Mirror before it could react, and its seven-colored tentacles struck the mirror surface first.

Click...

The mirror shattered, but the Frostfire Mirror showed no sign of retreating. Instead, it used the force of the seven-colored tentacles' strike to turn around and expose its back to the cordyceps.

In an instant, the flames flickered, and the Frostfire Mirror, which was originally filled with the aura of frost, suddenly changed its style and was engulfed in blazing golden flames.

At first glance, it even looks somewhat similar to the solar energy of cordyceps.

"Thank you so much. This is the first time the Frostfire Mirror has obtained such a powerful flame."

Ye Ge unusually took the initiative to express his gratitude to Bai Qi, but his expression showed no sign of gratitude whatsoever.

"It can actually copy the opponent's fire attribute? Are all equipment-type pets this overpowered?"

Bai Qi smacked his lips. On one side was the Frost Mirror, which possessed both freezing and burning abilities, and on the other side was the Flame Mirror, which could replicate the opponent's fire attribute.

Ye Ge's current combat strength is much higher than Wang Chuan's.

However, replicating the power of the sun is probably not that easy...

Seeing that Frostfire Mirror had copied his solar power, Cordyceps was somewhat surprised. Just as he was about to continue his attack, Frostfire Mirror took the initiative and shot out a golden ray.

The golden ray, a fusion of the power of the sun and the light of the mirror, possessed powerful penetrating ability. It grazed the carapace of the cordyceps and landed in the surrounding Crimson Lotus World, actually melting a hole in it.

Seeing this, Cordyceps couldn't help but shudder and wanted to create some distance, but suddenly thought of the scenes of creating dream battlefields for Bai Qi's pet beasts.

"Should you close the distance when facing a ranged attacker?"

Cordyceps was somewhat dazed, and instinctively closed the distance to the Frostfire Mirror again, narrowly avoiding the second ray of the Frostfire Mirror.

But precisely because of this, Frostfire Mirror's actions were exposed to Cordyceps's eyes.

"The boss's fighting skills are really useful!"

Cordyceps skillfully dodged the indiscriminate golden rays, and golden solar power attached itself to the seven-colored vines, firmly binding Frostfire Mirror and forcing it to deviate from its position. Then, it unleashed its full solar power, clearly intending to destroy Frostfire Mirror in one blow.

"It's useless. You're only making the Frostfire Mirror stronger."

Seeing this, Ye Ge shook his head, clearly intending to stop Bai Qi's actions, but soon received a painful message from the Frostfire Mirror.

hot!

It's so hot!

This was the first time Ye Ge had heard the Frostfire Mirror resist the flames he had replicated, and this resistance was almost to the point that he could no longer suppress it.

"Copying the sun, I really can't believe you came up with that idea."

Bai Qi grinned, snapped his fingers, and the solar power that the cordyceps had accumulated was immediately spewed out from its mouth, turning into a golden thread that pierced directly through the surface of the Frostfire Mirror.

This time, the Frostfire Mirror failed to flip its surface as before, and the two-colored candle above its head burned out, forcibly teleporting it away.

Applying what we've learned, the compressed solar power is indeed much better than the previous violent methods.

Indeed, knowledge is the primary productive force.

As the cordyceps drew closer to the lotus seedpod, Bai Qi nodded in satisfaction, then looked expectantly at the battle between the Judgment Angel and the Emperor's Heart Lotus.

The Judgment Angel is a mythical species, and Iris clearly held back her strength in the last battle; she should be unleashing her full power this time.

However, the reason why accidents are called accidents is because they are unpredictable.

The Angel of Judgment has lost.
