Beast Taming: I can evolve indefinitely

Chapter 679 The River of Oblivion Trench

Bai Qi's racing game clearly caught the sea monsters off guard, but the absurd clown was the first to react.

"Hehehe... Wanna have a competition? Will there be a punishment for losing?"

The absurd clown pulled with both hands, and a set of dark gold playing cards appeared out of thin air. He easily pulled them into various shapes in his hands, and then gathered them together, which turned into two daggers.

"Let's talk about punishments later, let's start the competition."

Bai Qi wisely avoided this topic; comparing speed with Alpha was practically suicidal.

"Hehehe... Okay then."

A sorrowful expression appeared on the absurd clown's face, and then he transformed into a mask that fell into Bai Qi's hands.

Bai Qi put on the mask, and the number on his forehead changed to 5, representing the white jade slip.

"They really weren't planning to give me any other numbers."

Bai Qi summoned the white jade slip, somewhat helplessly, and then gently tapped it. He was instantly teleported away, reappearing a hundred meters away.

"The Big Brother can teleport? Could it be that Fourth Brother's ability is being fed back to the Big Brother?"

The Bloodthirsty Manta Ray was somewhat surprised, while the Ice-Foot Sea Lice King acted like a senior, saying, "You don't understand, that's the ability of an equipment-type creature."

"But Bai Qi's equipment isn't a gun?"

As the opponent of the Absurd Clown in his first battle, the Explosive Orca said that the wound from being pierced by the Overlord Spear still hurts a little.

"I don't know, maybe it has some kind of shapeshifting ability."

Icefoot Sea Lice King offered a weak explanation and was about to find a reason to cover it up when he discovered that Bai Qi and his pets had already run far away.

"Hurry up and keep up, or those councilors won't let us off the hook."

Upon seeing this, the Ice-Foot Sea Lice King immediately followed, and the other sea creatures also stopped dawdling and immediately dived into the water to chase after them.

Because of its proximity to the Wangchuan Trench, the number of sea monsters in the area is increasing, and some even leap out of the water to ambush Bai Qi and his group.

However, thanks to the teleportation ability of the white jade slip and his powerful reflexes, Bai Qi easily dodged the attacks. Occasionally, those who couldn't dodge in time were also repelled by the attacks drawn by the white jade slip.

Unlike the Overlord Spear's super penetrating power and strength, the White Jade Slip, in addition to teleportation, also has extremely powerful energy manipulation capabilities. As long as Bai Qi draws different characters, the White Jade Slip will condense the power of stars into different forms to attack the enemy.

Although the attack power is not much different, this free form still has a considerable effect.

For example, the sea creatures trapped in the starry fishing net.

"Although the damage output isn't as high as I expected, it's still a well-rounded mage."

Having mastered the use of the white jade slip, Bai Qi nodded in satisfaction. He gently stroked his mask and switched directly to the Overlord Spear form, transforming into a cone-shaped starlight that plunged into the sea.

In an instant, dozens of sea beasts were pierced by the Overlord Spear before they even saw who their enemy was, and their blood gushed out, attracting all the surrounding sea beasts.

Seeing this, Bai Qi did not retreat but advanced, and actually wielded the Overlord Spear in the sea to fight the sea beasts.

Click-clack.

(Master is so powerful now, even Gamma might not be able to defend against him.)

Seeing this, Gamma felt a sense of admiration and said...

Crackling.

(The Star attribute is indeed quite special, and I really want to have a match with the boss.)

Snore snore~

(I also want to have a fight with my master~)

The thought of the three-headed pet entered Bai Qi's mind without reservation, startling him sober from his battle state and causing him to pause in his actions.

This slight delay allowed a Thunder Spearfish to seize the opportunity. Its nearly five-meter-long sword-shaped horn, crackling with lightning, locked onto Bai Qi and arrived in front of him in an instant, like a sharp arrow.

Seeing this, Bai Qi disregarded everything else and switched the numbers again, this time to the Araki Shield, which he placed in front of the sword's horn.

There was no impact whatsoever, not even the slightest ripple.

The terrifying strike of the Thunder Spear Fish landed on the Araki Shield, yet it was as silent as rain returning to the sea, causing no ripple whatsoever.

"I see. Araki's ability is to absorb all impacts? Although he doesn't have a shield parry, it's still a pretty good ability."

Bai Qi nodded in satisfaction. Although he only had three abilities, they had greatly improved his own survival ability, and he no longer had to worry about being targeted by others.

Crackling.

(Boss, a dead beast is coming.)

Just then, Alpha killed the Thunderspearfish with a single sword strike and looked ahead.

Bai Qi followed Alpha's gaze and indeed saw something slowly swimming towards him in the dark sea.

"It really is here."

Bai Qi didn't intend to approach casually. Instead, he looked at Jieta beside him and said, "Jieta, let's find them all first."

Snore snore~

(Okay, I'll take care of it~)

Jetta nodded obediently, then pulled out a vial containing a dark red liquid from somewhere, uncorked it, and threw it out.

"Hey, Jetta, what did you just lose?"

Upon seeing this, Bai Qi instinctively had a bad feeling and silently shrank back.

Snoring?

(Master, you mean this? This is a volcanic poison I concocted myself. It can automatically cook poisoned creatures, so they can be eaten directly. How about that? Aren't I amazing?)

"Hmm, that's impressive, but Jetta, the volcanic poison is still heading this way."

Bai Qi pointed to the volcanic venom that was flowing towards them with the water, his eyes twitching slightly.

Sending Jetta to learn about toxins seems like a mistake?

The explosive killer whale and the ice-footed sea lice also witnessed the volcanic venom.

"What is this strange thing now?"

The Exploding Orca didn't know what it was and instinctively wanted to touch it, but was stopped by the Ice-Foot Sea Lice King.

"Based on my intuition developed over the years, I advise you not to touch this thing casually."

The Icefoot Sea Lice King cautiously kept its distance from the volcanic poison, but the Explosive Stream Killer Whale was not such a coward; instead, it took the initiative to approach.

chi chi...

In an instant, the sound of water evaporating could be heard from the deep sea, and the area where the explosive killer whale came into contact with the volcanic poison turned bright red, clearly indicating that it had been poisoned.

Click-clack.

(Jeta's toxins are very potent; it's best for most people to avoid contact with it.)

Seeing this, Gamma approached the Bursting Orca. The demon's right hand pressed against the infected area, and the toxin spread directly along Gamma's arm into Gamma's body before disappearing completely.

"Uh, okay."

Seeing that it had been taught a lesson by an Emperor-level creature, the Explosive Orca was instinctively a little annoyed, but remembering that this was Bai Qi's pet beast, it silently swallowed its words.

I have a feeling that he might not be able to beat this strange birdman.

On the other side, Jeta also noticed that the flow of the volcanic poison was a bit off. A water element rune flashed between his eyebrows, and he immediately switched to the Water Spirit Child form. With a wave of his arm, a dark current surged up from the dark seabed, carrying the volcanic poison straight into the distance.

The undercurrent was not very large at first, but as it accelerated, it grew larger and larger. What shocked the explosive orca and others the most was that the volcanic toxin, which was originally only a little bit, began to spread.

By the time the dark current made contact with the first dead beast, the crimson dark current had already filled the field of vision of Bai Qi and the others.

"Minister Bai, wouldn't you say your actions are causing marine pollution?"

The Ice-Foot Sea Lice King asked a question quietly, making Bai Qi extremely embarrassed. He coughed twice and said seriously, "This is just to more effectively remove the dead beasts; it doesn't count as pollution."

"I can just clean it up later..."

The appearance of the volcanic poison flow did not affect the movements of the dead beasts on the other side. Having long lost their souls, they could not even feel fear and simply rushed into the volcanic poison flow.

Subsequently, a large amount of fiery poison entered the already decaying bodies of the dead beasts through their skin, instantly scorching them until they were bright red.

But soon, these red marks began to fade, clearly indicating that they had been assimilated by the death virus.

The reason why the Death Virus is so terrifying is that it can assimilate most energies. Currently, it seems that apart from ice-type abilities which can barely suppress its activity, most other types of energy are unable to resist the Death Virus.

Even more surprisingly, these dead beasts became more active due to the heat from the volcanic toxicity.

Seeing this, Jeta's forehead rune flashed again, and he returned to the Snow Doll state. A chilling aura emanated from the Snow Doll, instantly freezing all the volcanic poison.

In an instant, dozens of dead beasts were frozen solid in the volcanic toxic flow, resembling a huge red crystal sculpture.

Snore snore~

(Master, I've attracted all the dead beasts in the vicinity~)

Seeing that all the dead beasts had lost their ability to move, Jeta immediately hopped over to Bai Qi, blinking her big eyes at him.

"Great, I'll reward you with double the dessert when we get back."

Seeing this, Bai Qi patted Jeta's head with satisfaction. Volcanic venom has high heat, which is most likely to attract dead beasts, but it is afraid of low temperature. Jeta's operation shows that he has a good grasp of the dead beasts' habits.

"Alpha, go check what generation these undead beasts are. Those older than three generations don't need to be kept."

Crackling.

(OK.)

Alpha nodded slightly, walked to the red sculpture, sensed it for a moment, and then released the Annihilation Dragon, which devoured all the dead beasts.

"It seems we still have to venture deeper into the River of Oblivion Trench."

Seeing this, Bai Qi frowned slightly, turned to look at the thirteen bodyguards behind him, and said, "The area below is most likely the lair of the dead beasts. Although you are imperial creatures and not easily infected by the death virus, I am not sure if there will be any difference between the first three generations of the dead beast virus, so you can stay here."

"But……"

Upon hearing this, Mingdian was about to say something more when a fierce sword intent suddenly erupted from Alpha, startling them into shutting their mouths.

Even after being merged, the remaining pressure of the Dragon-Slaying Sword Intent was enough to suppress these sea beasts whose dragon bloodline was not pure.

However, Alpha's attack this time was not specifically targeted at them.

At the same time that Alpha erupted, the other pets also noticed the anomaly and all looked toward the dark trench in the distance.

Although somewhat blurry, they could vaguely see a winged humanoid figure flying rapidly toward them.
