Beast Taming: I can evolve indefinitely

Chapter 817 Searching for the Bronze Dragon

"That guy?"

Bai Qi looked at the sun beetle curiously, but the sun beetle was clearly unwilling to discuss the topic further and casually tossed the cocoon back.

"This little guy will probably sleep for a while. Let's settle him in first."

The sun-wheel beetle looked at Bai Qi, seemingly remembering something, and asked, "By the way, I just saw you summon them using some kind of method? Are you a space-type creature?"

"Yes, you can understand it that way."

Bai Qi nodded repeatedly. Beastmasters are essentially summoners, and classifying summoners as space-type creatures makes perfect sense!

"Despite being so weak, it can still wield the power of space and gain the friendship of so many powerful creatures. I'm starting to understand why Nozdormu is interested in 'humans'."

Sunwheel Beetle nodded slightly and said, "Perfect timing. I'm going to find Nozdormu after meeting some friends. You can come with me."

"Really? Thank you for your help."

Upon hearing this, Bai Qi agreed without hesitation, fearing that if he answered too late, the Sun Wheel Beetle would change its mind.

Now that it has been confirmed that we are in the Mythical Era, they can't be too reckless. After all, no one knows whether they will encounter a righteous myth like the Sun Wheel Beetle or a villainous myth like the Spirit-Devouring Toad next time.

"Remember to stay close to me. We'll be passing through the territories of several mythical creatures along the way. If you wander off and anger them, I can't guarantee I can protect you."

The sun beetle slowly rose, and before Bai Qi could react, it transformed into a golden rainbow and flew away into the distance.

"Holy crap, this can't be funny!"

Seeing this, Bai Qi immediately put away all his pets, called Zhuge Chen and Bai Qiucha to climb onto Delta's back, and chased after them.

The Sunbeard was very fast, but Delta, relying on the Void Tyrant skill, tore through the void and did not fall behind at all.

However, the sun beetle didn't seem to be testing Delta in this regard, maintaining its fast pace.

Soon, Bai Qi and his group arrived in front of a pyramid structure.

"Is this... the temple of the guardians of the underworld?"

Bai Qi looked around and quickly recognized the origin of the building. After seeing the wolf-headed, human-bodied creature appear, he was even more certain of his guess.

"Anu, guess what I found?"

The sun beetle flew to the side of the guardian of the underworld and pointed to Bai Qi and his group, who were following closely behind him.

"That's... a human?"

Anubis gave Bai Qi and the other two a deep look, his brows furrowing slightly.

"Didn't you go to investigate that matter? How did you end up running into them?"

"I did go to investigate, but I encountered the Soul-Devouring Toad on the way. That guy swallowed the Shadow Serpent's Shadow Essence, and I almost fell victim to it."

The Sunwheel Beetle told Anubis about its ordeal, then pointed to Bai Qi and his group, saying, "If it weren't for them, I'm afraid I would have ended up like the Shadow Serpent."

"Spirit-devouring toad... I understand."

Anubis's gaze was icy, and a faint but palpable pressure emanated from him. Bai Qi and the other two felt their souls tremble, and for a moment they dared not look directly into Anubis's eyes.

Regardless of whether they were evil or good in life, they will feel guilty when facing the gaze of the guardians of the underworld.

Seeing the awkward situation of Bai Qi and the other two, Anubis realized his loss of composure, but he still did not restrain his aura. Instead, his eyes flashed with a captivating light as he looked at Bai Qi.

Bai Qi was puzzled by Anubis's behavior and silently instructed Alpha and the other pets to prepare for battle.

There is no doubt that Anubis and the Sun Beetle had a good relationship, after all, even in death, the two stayed together to suppress the Black Mist Serpent.

But this doesn't mean Anubis is necessarily a good person. Anyone who can be associated with the underworld has a somewhat abnormal way of doing things.

Fortunately, after observing Bai Qi for a while, Anubis withdrew his gaze, and even his eyes softened.

"Just as you said, it contains the aura of my power."

Anubis beckoned with his right hand, and a dark gold scepter appeared in his hand. He then tapped it lightly, and an invisible wave spread out.

Then, the husky ran out of the beast-taming space and silently stared at Anubis, who looked at Shuke with the same gaze.

"That sun-wheel beetle sir, and this Anubis, could he also be single?"

Bai Qi quietly approached the sun beetle and asked in a low voice.

"Of course, mythical creatures generally do not easily give birth to offspring, as that would easily weaken their control over their origin."

The sun-wheel beetle seemed to enjoy teaching, patiently explaining things to Bai Qi before giving him a somewhat teasing look.

"What, are you implying that things were already like this when you met him?"

"Yes, that's it."

Bai Qi nodded repeatedly. This wasn't his statement, and even if he was exposed, he couldn't be blamed.

However, considering the previous actions of the Sun Beetle towards Cordyceps, perhaps Jerry can still get some benefits from Anubis?

Unfortunately, Bai Qi was overthinking things. After Anubis sized up Jerry, he didn't say a word and stopped interfering. Jerry, just like when he came, silently returned to the Three Lives Fortress.

"He doesn't seem to be contaminated; he should be fine."

Anubis looked at the sun beetle and said.

"It would be best if there were no problems."

The Sunwheel Beetle nodded slightly, and upon seeing Bai Qi instantly become alert, it immediately explained, "I'm sorry, the timing of your appearance is too coincidental. Although Nozdormu mentioned it to us before, I still have to be careful."

"After all, nobody knows whether you've been corrupted by that guy."

"Pollution? That guy?"

Upon hearing the Sun Wheel Beetle's words, Bai Qi instinctively sensed something.

"Your partners are all very strong, but this is not something you can get involved in, so don't ask any more questions."

The Sunwheel Beetle showed no intention of explaining to Bai Qi, instead changing the subject and quietly discussing things with Anubis on its own.

But the more the two acted this way, the more certain Bai Qi became of his guess.

The "that guy" they're talking about is probably Death.

The mythological era was indeed not safe either...

Thinking of this, Bai Qi's eyes became deep, and the purpose of the time journey that the bullskin snake had arranged for them became clear.

Go against the flow of time to find a way to defeat death.

The key lies in the "point" that the black snake mentioned.

"The goal is becoming clearer, but our time is running out..."

Bai Qi shared his analysis with Zhuge Chen and Bai Qiucha, and their expressions became serious.

"If Bai Qi, your guess is correct, then it means that even in the age of mythology, no one could eliminate death, and ultimately chose to seal it away?"

Bai Qiucha looked at the Sun Wheel Beetle and Anubis still whispering in the distance and said, "In fact, I have every reason to suspect that these mythical creatures sealed death at the cost of their lives."

"Acha, do you mean that the mythological era might have ended for this reason?"

Bai Qi stroked his chin, analyzing the possibilities.

"It shouldn't be that difficult. Alpha was already able to defeat Deathwing, so it shouldn't be too difficult for other mythical creatures."

Zhuge Chen seemed somewhat unwilling to accept this and raised objections.

"But Deathwing is just an avatar of Death. If it were Death itself here, the mythical creature might not be a match for him."

Bai Qi sighed. He was originally happy that Alpha had defeated Deathwing, but it hadn't been long before he was about to face Death itself.

This rhythm is just too smooth.

"What are you discussing?"

Just then, the sun beetle suddenly appeared beside Bai Qi and the others, startling Bai Qi.

"It's nothing, I was just wondering what the two gods are worried about."

Bai Qi chuckled awkwardly and said, "By the way, Lord Sunwheel Beetle, may we set off now to find the Bronze Dragon?"

"Of course, we need to hurry."

The sun-wheel beetle nodded, its body swaying slightly, and three golden rays transformed into threads that pulled Bai Qi and the other two onto its back.

"Nozdormu doesn't like people being late, so I'm not playing with you guys this time."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Qi found that the world around him became blurry, and everything was merged together, like a painting that had been smeared.

The rapid change of scenery put too much strain on Bai Qi's eyes, so he immediately closed them, which relieved the pressure somewhat.

"As expected, anything related to the sun couldn't possibly be slow!"

The speed at which the Sunwheel Beetle unleashed its full power made Bai Qi realize once again the strength of mythical creatures. With nothing else to do, Bai Qi simply sat cross-legged on the Sunwheel Beetle's back and began his long-lost meditation.

In the mythological era, there were no level restrictions, so perhaps he could have achieved all the necessary advancements.

"We've arrived. You can open your eyes now."

After an unknown amount of time, the sun beetle suddenly stopped, and Bai Qi slowly opened his eyes.

What appeared before Bai Qi were steep mountain peaks, which, from a distance, looked like pointers pointing to the sky.

Bubbling.

(Master, the power of time that Delta sensed is emanating from here.)

Delta emerged from the void, a glint of longing in her eyes.

"This is it? So, the cowhide snake is very likely inside?"

Bai Qi looked up and, sure enough, saw a bronze dragon emerge from the mountain peak and fly towards them. His eyes lit up.

He threw them into the river of time without explaining anything, always in a hurry. Now he finally has a chance to ask them properly.
