Starting with the Broken-Winged Frost Butterfly: Beast Taming

"Did you freeze the flames?"

Liang Baizhou's mouth was agape in an "O" shape, his mind completely blank.

The conflict between ice and fire is simply a matter of the flame going out or the ice melting.

Now a third option has appeared—freeze! That's outrageous!

"Is this the Ice Wheel Slash? The icy energy is released from her body, it's much stronger than before." Zhu Ran stared intently, delighted by Xiao Die Die's transformation.

He unleashed his second strike.

The black flame wall shattered instantly.

On the scorched earth, the icy blades continued their relentless advance, slicing through the ground and leaving a trail of frosty white ice, which gleamed with a chilling, translucent light under the pale white sky.

"It's broken already?" Liang Baizhou was dumbfounded.

The leaky turtle was tried for a long time with little effect.

The Azure Lotus Fairy also returned empty-handed, failing to grasp the essentials.

It's the turn of the Broken-Winged Frost Butterfly.

Incredibly, the circular barrier that had been troubling them was opened up with just two hits, allowing them to pass through at any time.

"With just this Frost Butterfly, I can be ranked in the top twenty of the combat power list," Qin Tao murmured.

Objectively speaking, even the Black Flame Demon couldn't breach this high wall of black flames in a short time.

Because fire overcomes wood.

Mo Ji Mei Yao is not good at breaking such restrictions.

In contrast, the Broken-Winged Frost Butterfly strikes with lightning speed, unstoppable and unstoppable.

This insect-type pet has stepped onto the icy path and is nearing the mountain peak!

"Will you have any regrets about leaving like this?"

Zhu Ran looked out over the land beyond the black flames, where nothing grew, and the land was still barren and desolate.

With only the leaky turtle by his side, he naturally didn't want to cause trouble.

The way of Gou is to conceal one's talents and remain calm, not to act rashly or impulsively, to avoid trouble and conflict, and not to be strong for even a moment.

But now—Xuexi has awakened!

A mature ice-type A-rank creature, it should be able to roam freely in most parts of the secret realm!

"You want to launch a surprise attack?" Liang Baizhou's mind was racing.

Having witnessed the broken-winged frost butterfly cleave through the high wall of black flames with its two wings, he was shocked, then excited.

Because he's a teammate!

Even without Qin Taozhi, with their current combat strength, which pet master team would dare to underestimate them? No matter how precious the treasure, they are qualified to enter the arena and compete for it!

"The source of the black flames has never been clearly identified. If it's related to pet beasts..."

Based on the existing clues, the Black Flame has existed for a long time, and its elemental quality is equivalent to that of the Leaky Turtle and the Azure Lotus Demon, but its advantage lies in its large quantity.

It's at least a rare B-grade.

Of course, the possibility of being rated A cannot be ruled out, but the probability is low.

"Let's go back and have a chat with it." Zhu Ran's eyes were clear, and her confidence was hidden in her brows.

Xuexi: (ﾟ3ﾟ)～♪

Xi is now incredibly arrogant. The secret realm is so vast, who else but me? Let's go!

"Master Liang, you ride on Master Kai's back, and we'll search the whole place. I bet we'll find him."

"Alright!" With fragments of the weapon beast absorbing the black flames, the steel giraffe was unafraid of the scorching heat, and Liang Baizhou readily agreed.

For the next two hours, Zhu Ran let Xue Xi hook her shoulders and float in mid-air, moving at lightning speed.

Its speed has increased dramatically compared to a mature B-grade form!

What pleases Zhu Ran the most is that Xiao Die Die's skill in manipulating ice elements is now far superior to what it used to be. Whether speeding, climbing, or descending, she only needs to create a few ice walls at different angles to dissipate most of the airflow, greatly improving Zhu Ran's comfort in the sky.

"Hmm? The black flames are getting denser. Are we getting closer to the source?"

Looking down from the sky, Zhu Ran had a wide field of vision and immediately noticed something unusual.

Xuexi let out a joyful cry, slowed down slightly, and waited for the steel giraffes on the ground to advance side by side.

As for Qin Taozhi, Mo Jimei Yao was no longer by her side.

Her mount is still the "Azure Lotus Fairy," with its large lotus roots floating in the air and water waves clearing a path for a smooth and elegant journey.

"That is..."

After traveling another five kilometers, black flames surged into the sky, heat waves rose, and the air was continuously distorted by the scorching heat.

Zhu Ran saw black flames seeping from the cracks in the ground; the answer to everything was within reach.

"Sizzle!"

Xue Xi darted out, her frozen ice like a sword or a knife, a chilling aura exploded out, and a deep blue blade of light angrily split the heavens and earth.

The raging black flames were instantly frozen.

The frost swept across the land, relentlessly covering the scorching earth with a thick layer of white frost.

"sieve!"

From the crack in the ground, something shot into the sky.

The pitch-black flames spread across the sky, melting a small portion of the frost, and pressed down on the broken-winged frost butterfly.

Zhu Ran, please see this clearly!

They truly are beasts of war!

The true form of the black flame was actually a fan, with a fan surface as wide as two zhang and fan ribs as thick as giant trees. When it was unfolded, black light patterns danced and black flames poured out, instantly placing him and Xue Xi in a sea of ​​fire.

Xue Xi: (๑•̌.•̑๑)ˀ̣ˀ̣

That's it?

A cold light trembled and sang, icy mist surged, and a frost butterfly with broken wings rode the wind, its body enveloped in a torrent of cold air.

In the blink of an eye, the sea of ​​fire vanished without a trace. The broken-winged frost butterfly charged in front of the black fan, firing dozens of frost bullets from its icy wings, followed by a barrage of ice spikes of all sizes. The black fan fell with a mournful cry, and large patches of firelight on its fan surface dimmed.

"boom!!"

Xuexi summoned six more ice walls, each ten feet long, like giant bricks, which fell from the sky and covered the black fan. The fan ribs made a creaking sound as they could not bear the weight, and the remaining black flames were extinguished one by one. The entire fan was firmly imprisoned, and there was no possibility of it causing any more trouble.

Is it Grade A or Grade B?

Liang Baizhou arrived just in time, craning his neck to look out.

Grade B.

Zhu Ran gazes at the panel.

[Race]: Black Flame Banana Fan

[Attribute]: Fire

[Life Level]: Mature

[Bloodline Strength]: B

[Core Talents]: Fire Accumulation/Residual Heat/Fire Fusion/Residual Fire Recovery/Black Flame Domain

[Racial Skills]: Blazing Fire Curtain, Ring of Flames Protection, Black Flame Frenzy, Black Flame Shockwave

[Status]: Severely Injured/Frozen/Suppressed...

This was the first time Zhu Ran had seen the true form of the beast.

The Black Flame Banana Leaf Fan, a fan-shaped weapon, possesses four types of fire-based magic, its sharpness is modest.

But what truly surprised him was the talent "Black Flame Domain".

How could a mere mature B-grade entity be able to cover such a vast area and build its own territory?

"It is a species not recorded in the official encyclopedia."

Qin Taozhi slowly approached, her purple eyes shimmering with a glint of light, gradually revealing a sharp glint.

"Being defeated by the Broken-Winged Frost Butterfly in just a few rounds, it's no wonder he's ranked A."

"If I'm not mistaken, this guy has a rather unique talent. The more he stays in one place, the more the black flames will accumulate over the years, and the stronger they will become."

Zhu Ran's heart was filled with turbulent emotions.

He suspected that if the Black Flame Wall hadn't been breached first, destroying the entire domain's structure...

With the Black Flame Banana Leaf Fan, one could potentially engage in a fierce battle with Xue Xi for hundreds of rounds under the carefully cultivated environment!

"It's not Grade A, but it's classified as a rare Grade B, which is a bit of a drawback."

Zhu Ran believed that if this beast were put up for auction, the price would not be less than two million.

And this is incredibly close to the minimum threshold for a regular A-level qualification.

"Possessing wide-area domain skills, it is best suited for guarding the borders and its practicality is second to none."

"The next best thing is to work as a security guard for a large company. I have a lot of success."

Zhu Ran imagined that the super-burning life would establish a black flame domain, where all who came and went could see the high wall of black flames, and those who wanted to pass through it had to go through a special fire gate... That kind of shock would definitely be unforgettable.
