Beast Taming: I can evolve indefinitely

Chapter 717 The Great Tomb at Dusk a Thousand Years Ago

"Copy my memories and wisdom?"

The French emperor was taken aback upon hearing this and asked, "Is such a thing really possible?"

"Generally speaking, that won't work, but what if we implant Your Majesty's memories into the soul of a ferocious beast, and then transfer them to a puppet using a soul-separating curse?"

Upon hearing Bai Qi's words, the Dharma Emperor fell into deep thought, but quickly shook his head and said, "This method is indeed feasible, but the Soul Separation Curse Seal will completely erase the beast's thoughts. Even if it is implanted into my memories, it will not work."

"That seems to be true."

Bai Qi frowned slightly. His idea was probably correct, but it would be quite difficult to implement.

However, he was certain that the French emperor would find a way in the future.

Otherwise, how would black and white have come about?

Given the capabilities of the French Emperor and the productivity of this era, it is absolutely impossible for him to create a puppet like Black and White, which possesses intelligence and can even design the Secret Realm Tower, out of thin air.

Therefore, the only explanation is that the French emperor may have actually done the same thing he just proposed.

Copy the soul, create black and white.

When he gets back this time, he'll definitely study black and white properly.

"However, that is indeed a very good suggestion. I will take a closer look at it when I have the chance in the future."

The Emperor smiled, looked at the Twin Sky Mech, and said, "Now that the basic structural design is complete, the next step is to find sufficiently powerful beast souls and energy sources."

"Bai Qi, would you be interested in coming with me to the Sanbai tribe?"

Upon hearing the Emperor's words, Bai Qi immediately understood and asked, "Your Majesty, do you intend to extract the soul of the legendary ferocious beast from the Three White Tribe?"

The Emperor nodded and said, "The Three White Tribes are too close to Wuxian City. If we continue to let them go unchecked, they will pose a great threat to the defense of Wuxian City. Let's eliminate them while we're at it."

"Well... Your Majesty, perhaps you don't need to go."

Bai Qi smiled sheepishly and told Emperor Fa about the fate of the Three Whites of Taize Lake.

"I see. No wonder the Sanbai tribe has been so quiet lately; you raided it beforehand."

"I didn't want to either, but they came looking for trouble."

Bai Qi paused for a moment, then said, "However, there is one place that might be able to solve all of Your Majesty's problems at the same time."

"The Great Tomb at Dusk".

"The Great Tomb at Dusk".

They both gave the same answer at the same time, then looked at each other and smiled.

……

The Great Tomb at Dusk.

"It is indeed very different from the Hill of the Dead in later generations."

Bai Qi looked at the magnificent city in front of him and the densely packed undead outside the city, and said.

"Bai Qi, what were you saying just now?"

The Emperor looked at Bai Qi with some doubt and asked.

"It's nothing, I just wanted to say that there are indeed a lot of undead here."

"Indeed, the Empire has tried to completely clean this place up several times, but the undead in the Twilight Tomb seem endless, and with the legendary guardians inside, the difficulty of cleaning it up is even greater."

Emperor Fa sighed and said, "Although the Myriad Laws Empire is now considered to be a powerful nation, it is still too preoccupied with internal and external troubles, and simply cannot spare much energy."

Beset by internal and external troubles?

He was well aware of the external threats. Ever since the First Emperor led humanity to break free from the control of the tribes and fought against them, the tribes had always been the biggest external threat to humanity.

As for these internal troubles...

It seems the only option is the Vatican.

"The conflict between divine right and imperial power is indeed troublesome, and humanity certainly needs a faith. But since we are all beast tamers, possessing formidable strength ourselves, why must we place our faith in ethereal deities?"

Bai Qi thought for a moment and then said.

"I understand what you mean, but there aren't many people who have awakened the talent of a beast tamer to begin with, and even fewer who have the ability to raise pet beasts."

The French Emperor sighed and said, "Moreover, the Holy Light Church possesses a mythological heritage, and their pets do indeed have a greater advantage than ordinary pets."

"Mythical heritage...is this what Your Majesty means?"

Bai Qi grinned upon hearing this, and then summoned Gamma.

"This...this is an angel? No, it seems there are other attributes involved?"

The French Emperor raised an eyebrow, looking at Gamma's strange appearance with surprise.

"That's right, these are my three pets, Gamma, which also possess the Holy Light attribute. As for the other attribute... please forgive me for keeping it a secret for now."

Bai Qi paused for a moment, then said, "In fact, with Your Majesty's abilities, you could cultivate a group of outstanding legendary beast tamers and let these beast tamers carry the faith of humanity."

"Mythical creatures have disappeared for thousands of years. Instead of believing in these ethereal beings, it's better to focus on improving your own strength."

"To forge iron, one must be strong oneself."

After hearing Bai Qi's words, the Emperor fell into a brief silence, and his previously hesitant gaze suddenly became firm.

"Thank you, Bai Qi, for helping me make up my mind."

The Dharma Emperor patted Bai Qi on the shoulder and said, "But let's clean up the Great Tomb of Twilight first. We've been out for so long, Yama should be finding us soon."

"it is good."

Bai Qi nodded slightly, then looked at Gamma.

"Gamma, these soldiers are yours."

Click-clack.

(no problem.)

Gamma nodded, and the Gates of Heaven appeared in the air, falling to the ground like a curtain of the sky.

The undead creatures below, illuminated by the holy light and lightning emanating from the Gates of Heaven, were instantly reduced to dust, and their energy was absorbed by the Gates of Heaven, expanding its range.

"Bai Qi, your pet beasts are indeed very strong. Ordinary people would probably find it hard to imagine that this is just an Emperor-level creature."

Seeing this, Bai Qi couldn't help but admire him. Although there was the elemental advantage, it was indeed rare to see someone use an Immortal-level skill so easily.

"Just lucky."

Bai Qi responded modestly, while on the other side, Gamma had already taken control of the Gates of Heaven and advanced towards the Great Tomb of Dusk.

Unlike the cannon fodder undead below, the undead guarding the city walls were significantly stronger. Skeleton archers and undead mages used ranged skills to try to break down the Gates of Heaven, while the summoner continuously summoned new undead to try and disrupt Gamma's advance.

However, before the Gates of Heaven, these attacks were completely futile, turning into the purest energy and feeding back into the gamma.

Click-clack.

(Master, Gamma is very full.)

"Then let's intensify our efforts; that way, the main culprit won't show up."

Upon hearing this, Bai Qi issued a new order: these soldiers, no matter how many they come, are just food for Gamma. Let alone whether they can deplete Gamma's energy, Gamma's energy is already higher than before the battle.

Snap snap snap!

(Gamma understands!)

Gamma nodded repeatedly, his body blurring as he created four clones, each summoning the Gates of Heaven and launching an attack from the four directions: east, west, south, and north.

In an instant, the Great Tomb of Twilight was completely surrounded by the Gates of Heaven. Holy light, like a white thunder dragon, swept across the city walls, taking away the lives of the dead.

The great tomb that had troubled the empire for years was easily breached by Gamma's outer defenses.

However, it wasn't long before the defense mechanism outside the Great Tomb of Twilight was triggered. A black rune crawled all over the walls, and the powerful shadow power isolated the holy light, preventing it from continuing to damage the Great Tomb of Twilight.

"As expected of a city built by a great lich, this defensive rune system is truly ingenious."

Upon seeing that the Great Tomb of Twilight had activated its defense mechanism, the Fa Emperor joined the battle and summoned his main pet.

Legendary creature, the Book of Myriad Laws.

As soon as the Book of Myriad Laws appeared, it released tens of thousands of runes. These runes seemed to have a life of their own, freely combining in the air and slowly forming a complex runic structure, which then slowly drifted toward the Great Tomb of Twilight.

Sensing the approach of the runic structure, the Twilight Tomb also launched a counterattack, continuously firing projectiles condensed from shadow power from the walls in an attempt to shatter the Book of Laws' attack.

However, the control of the Book of Myriad Laws was so powerful that it was astonishing; by adjusting the structure of the runes, it precisely avoided all attacks.

Finally, the Book of Myriad Laws, controlling the runic structure, landed on the Great Tomb of Twilight.

In an instant, both rune systems vanished, and the once eerie Twilight Tomb suddenly returned to normal.

At the same time, a stone door opened for the two of them, revealing the interior of the Great Tomb of Twilight behind it.

"This level of control... I should say, no wonder he's called the French Emperor?"

Seeing this, Bai Qi couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement. Using runes to counter runes, putting aside everything else, the power of rune control in the Emperor's Myriad Laws Scroll alone was enough to slaughter most legendary ferocious beasts.

No wonder the French Emperor was able to suppress the Papacy and the surrounding tribes all by himself; his strength was indeed formidable.

"Alright, let's go in. They're already waiting for us inside."

The Dharma Emperor retrieved the Book of Myriad Laws and stepped onto the Great Tomb of Twilight, his feet landing on the runes. Bai Qi, not wanting to be left behind, donned the Absurd Mask and followed after him.

After passing through the gate, Bai Qi arrived at the familiar first floor.

However, compared to the desolate scene in later generations, there are now significantly more guardians on the first level.

Skeletons, zombies, ghosts, vampires...

Various kinds of undead souls wielded sophisticated weapons and launched an attack on Bai Qi and his companions, but they were completely purified by Gamma before they could even get close.

However, the other side was clearly aware of Bai Qi and his group's strength. After consuming some of their soldiers, the guardians of this layer appeared before them.

A white-haired vampire wearing red armor and wielding a red spear.

"How dare you disturb the slumber of the dragon lich, Lord Nidhogg! You deserve to die!"

The vampire coldly swept his blood-red vertical pupils over Bai Qi and his companions, issuing a death notice to them.

"A legendary vampire? It's a pity Li Xusheng isn't here, otherwise I could have compared my blood control with him."

Bai Qi smacked his lips, then summoned Alpha.

It's common knowledge that anyone chosen to guard the goal must be strong.

"Alpha, finish this quickly, but don't underestimate your opponent."

Crackling.

(I see.)

Alpha nodded slightly, pointing the Sword of Annihilation at the vampire. Upon sensing Alpha's aura, the vampire's eyes flickered, and a strange light appeared on his face.

"I can't believe there are such powerful undead in the outside world! I must capture you and present you to Lord Nidhogg!"
