Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Indefinitely

Chapter 359: Chapter 355: Too Cruel!

On the outskirts of Gusu City.

A huge bear collapsed weakly to the ground, and standing before it, was Jerry in his Guardian of the Underworld form.

“Epsilon, rush in for parasitism.”

Bai Qi tossed over the parasitic grass upon observing the situation. The parasitic grass didn’t hesitate, landing precisely at the rear of the bear’s head, easily biting through the tough hide of the Cleaving Sky War Bear. Its colorful tendrils quickly extended, delivering a seed, shimmering with a strange glow, into the wound.

Sunlight flooded down, the seed took root and germinated quickly after entering the body of the Cleaving Sky War Bear. In an instant, it seized control of the bear’s control center. The bear instinctively tried to resist due to the pain but was knocked back by a punch from Jerry.

[Name]: Cleaving Sky War Bear

[Nature]: Combat System

[Bloodline Level]: Lower-tier King

[Introduction]: Possessing an explosive temperament and a love for battle, the Cleaving Sky War Bear’s powerful body provides not only robust defense but also an attack power that terrifies enemies.

…

The Cleaving Sky War Bear was a king-tiered Fierce Beast. The parasitic grass wouldn’t have easily planted the seed in its body if not for Jerry’s help in damaging the bear’s spirit.

With Jerry’s help, the parasitic grass managed to plant its seed into the Cleaving Sky War Bear’s body smoothly. The colorful vines spread throughout the Cleaving Sky War Bear’s body like blood vessels, seizing complete control of it.

“Epsilon, how does it feel?”

Bai Qi looked at the now immobile Cleaving Sky War Bear, asking somewhat anxiously.

“Chief, I have now taken control of the Cleaving Sky War Bear, and it feels pretty good at the moment.”

The grass beetle wings fluttered and landed on the crown of the Cleaving Sky War Bear, which slowly rose to its feet. It gently swung its arm, the sound of breaking the void echoed through the sky.

“Not bad. Even if it can’t use its abilities, the body alone can provide considerable combat power.”

Bai Qi nodded in satisfaction. This Cleaving Sky War Bear was the result of him and the five pets making a selection after a long time.

A king-tier creature, of Combat System, with a thick skin and startling strength. It can attack and defend and perfectly satisfies his requirements for Epsilon’s parasitic target.

Parasitic grass nodded repeatedly. Having such a powerful beast, it finally possessed the ability for a positive frontal attack. As long as it put the Cleaving Sky War Bear at the front, it could peacefully create its dreamland without any worries.

“Alright, let’s continue to search for the next target.”

Bai Qi opened the task panel. Schuck had already marked six lord-leveled ferocious beasts, all of which were fierce and physical creatures.

Although Bai Qi wanted seven king-tier creatures, Epsilon was merely a lord-level creature. Even though it possessed immense spirit power due to being a symbiote with a mythical bloodline, Bai Qi didn’t get too greedy, considering the control effects.

Anyway, creatures under absolute control would vacate their places after death. Once Epsilon’s power increased, he could replace them gradually.

Bai Qi climbed onto the palm of the Cleaving Sky War Bear, was lifted to the bear’s shoulders by Epsilon’s control, and then started marching toward the mountain.

This region was originally the territory of the Cleaving Sky War Bear. Lord-level creatures wouldn’t dare to roam nearby, so hunting could only be done deep in the mountains.

The Cleaving Sky War Bear might seem clumsy, but it was pretty fast when it comes to traveling. They soon arrived at their first target, the Dustbreaker Rhino.

[Name]: Dustbreaker Rhino

[Nature]: Combat System

[Bloodline Level]: High-grade Lord

[Introduction]: The Dustbreaker Rhino possesses the confidence to charge relentlessly with its skin as hard as fine gold and a horn that naturally has armor-breaking effects.

…

“Epsilon, let’s see how well your first parasitic body functions.”

Bai Qi jumped off from the Cleaving Sky War Bear. He stood far away with his pets, Alpha, while Epsilon nodded and flew up from the Cleaving Sky War Bear’s head, controlling Cleaving Sky War Bear to walk towards the Dustbreaker Rhino.

Roar!

The appearance of the Cleaving Sky War Bear had long attracted the attention of the Dustbreaker Rhino. Being the bear’s neighbor, it was naturally aware of the bear’s terrifying combat power, so instinctively wanted to retreat.

But the Cleaving Sky War Bear seemed to be relentless and even quickened its pace. Its originally somewhat awkward movements gradually became smooth. Returning to its instincts, it went on all fours and began to run quickly.

Then, it collided full-on with a big tree as thick as three people’s combined hug.

The tree broke apart with a bang, and the Cleaving Sky War Bear was dazedly knocked to the ground.

“I mean, it has been parasitic for such a long time, can it be less useless?”

Bai Qi looked at Epsilon speechlessly while Epsilon was somewhat embarrassed.

“Sorry, chief. The body of a King-tier creature is somewhat complex. If it moves faster, the coordination would be worse. I am adjusting it.”

Epsilon quickly controlled the parasitic seed to adjust the control structure, and the Cleaving Sky War Bear stood up again.

But perhaps because of this, the Dustbreaker Rhino sensed something unusual.

Did the Cleaving Sky War Bear become weaker?

The Dustbreaker Rhino stamped the ground, and its hefty body abruptly accelerated, charging towards the Cleaving Sky War Bear. Trees and rocks were smashed wherever it went.

The Cleaving Sky War Bear seemed to be unprepared. By the time it wanted to defend, the Dustbreaker Rhino had already reached in front of it, and it could only grudgingly extend its arms to hold the rhino’s body.

Bang!

The Dustbreaker Rhino collided squarely with the Cleaving Sky War Bear, and the immense force sent the Cleaving Sky War Bear uncontrollably retreating. The success of its first attack invigorated the Dustbreaker Rhino, and it further increased its force.

However, after retreating a distance, the Cleaving Sky War Bear stopped. Its wide palm held the Dustbreaker Rhino’s body, and with a powerful pull and throw, the Dustbreaker Rhino was flung away.

Even without the use of skills, the terrifying power of combat system creatures remained. The Dustbreaker Rhino stood absolutely no chance in that regard.

“Epsilon, be gentle. This is your next parasitic target. If you damage it too much, it will be difficult to repair.”

“Alright, boss.”

Cordyceps nodded, blocking the Dustbreaker Rhino’s attack once again. But this time, it didn’t retreat—it firmly stopped the attack.

Roar!

Feeling the giant strength from the Cleaving Sky War Bear’s arms, the Dustbreaker Rhino roared in rage. The ground beneath its feet instantly turned to sand, and the Cleaving Sky War Bear stumbled, nearly falling.

Luckily, Cordyceps was very proficient in absolute control; it quickly steadied itself and then heavily slapped the Dustbreaker Rhino’s head.

Crack.

A clear shattering sound was heard as the Dustbreaker Rhino’s half-prepared skill was forcibly shattered. The robust body fell to the ground, lifeless.

“Damn, was that really necessary?”

Bai Qi watched the Dustbreaker Rhino’s death in astonishment, surprised at the Cleaving Sky War Bear’s strength.

He’d initially thought the big dumb bear to be of mere average power, but now it seemed considerably proficient.

He just wasn’t sure if the Dustbreaker Rhino could still be used.

Plus, being killed by a single slap, he started to have reservations.

Blub-blub-blub.

(Master, rest assured. It’s just a brain injury, it’s a temporary shock.)

Delta moved forward and did a quick check, soon offering an evaluation. After hearing the verdict from Delta, Cordyceps couldn’t wait to launch a parasitic attack on the Dustbreaker Rhino.

Soon, the second parasite obediently stood in front of Bai Qi under the control of Cordyceps.

“Not bad, let’s keep up this pace.”

Bai Qi nodded, moving forward with his newly acquired parasitic beasts.

…

On the bank of Taize Lake.

A large Crystal Giant Crocodile was ruthlessly pressed to the ground by six monsters. It could only watch in horror as a golden beetle bit through its shell, planting a seed radiating a dangerous aura inside its body.

“My goodness, this is absolutely ruthless.”

Looking at the Crystal Giant Crocodile that was covered in beast marks, Bai Qi couldn’t help but sigh.

He could already imagine the confused faces of those who would have to fight against Cordyceps in the future, pinned to the ground by seven beasts and being beaten up.

The thought of that scene was simply delightful.

“Boss, the parasitic process has been completed.”

Soon, Cordyceps flew back from the Crystal Giant Crocodile and landed gently on Bai Qi’s shoulder. The six large monsters then obediently lined up before him.

One king, six lords.

Though they could only display the power of their flesh and at most only ten percent of their actual strength compared to their normal state, the intimidation from the massive size of the combat system ferocious beasts was enough to scare off anyone.

Bai Qi put the seven parasitic beasts into the Secret Realm Base, saying, “Let’s bring them back to the secret realm for further improvement in control and coordination. They can be quite a force.”

To ensure that these beasts wouldn’t starve to death or become Gamma’s food, Bai Qi specifically instructed Yu to establish a breeding area in the base for the beasts. Consequently, Cordyceps gained a territory of its own within the Secret Realm Base.

“But this secret realm is becoming increasingly insufficient…”

Bai Qi looked over the remaining space in the secret base, scratching his head.

Just five contracts and the base was already feeling cramped. If he were to enter contracts with two more, wouldn’t it become even more crowded?

“It seems I’ll have to ask the president if I can get a bigger secret realm.”

Making up his mind, Bai Qi looked at the time and immediately intended to return to Gusu City with Delta.

Aooo!

(Human, I seem to smell something familiar. It’s a familiar scent.)

At that moment, Beta abruptly roared towards the distance.

“Is there an enemy?”

On hearing those words, Bai Qi immediately became alert. He’d been operating around the area recently, almost wiping out all the lord-level and king-level fierce beasts. The only beings that would appear here and make Beta alert would be the Beast Soul Warriors.

“Detected abnormal energy fluctuations, judged to have an 88% probability of being a secret realm appearing.”

Schuck took a glance in the direction of Beta’s roar, quickly giving his own judgment.

“A secret realm appearing?”

Bai Qi’s eyes brightened. Sleeping and having someone give a pillow—it was a protagonist’s treatment he was receiving.

“It’s so smooth, thank God I’m not writing a novel, or I’d definitely be harshly criticized.”

Bai Qi grinned, saying, “Change direction, let’s go explore the secret realm! Whether or not the base can be expanded may depend on this!”
