As expected, under Bai Qi’s regretful gaze, Delta’s new evolutionary form devolved halfway back after enduring for half an hour.Gett your 𝒇avorite 𝒏ovels at no/v/e/lb𝒊n(.)com
“Space department didn’t work, and I guess Spiritual would also be tricky, so I have to rely on Temporal in the end?”
Looking at Delta, who was somewhat weakened due to the devolution, Bai Qi started to ponder over the future developmental directive for Delta while feeding it with Green Dragon Scales to replenish its strength.
“However, this evolution lasted twenty minutes longer than usual, which shows that Delta has a stronger tolerance for Space Materials. It might be viable to cultivate it in this direction.”
“We will test the Spiritual materials next, as for Temporal…”
Bai Qi gave a bitter smile. Space department material was quite rare, but it probably existed. However, he had only heard of Temporal material in books.
Blub, Blub.
(I am sorry, Master. I let you down again.)
Delta’s eyes were full of disappointment. It lowered its head and didn’t dare to meet Bai Qi’s gaze. Seeing this, Bai Qi chuckled and said, “It’s okay. Didn’t we make progress yet again? Do you feel any changes in your body?”
“Changes?”
Delta thought for a moment and said, “I think so, but it seems like there isn’t.”
Bai Qi nodded. Delta had encountered this situation before. Despite each evolution ending in failure, Delta seemed to undergo some change as its evolution period continued to lengthen.
While some of these changes enhanced speed, others improved physical fitness, and some even enhanced spirit power. Still, most of these changes were directed towards enhancing the Energy Value.
Bai Qi boldly speculated that if Delta could maintain the evolution for longer, it might learn a skill or two.
“We lasted for half an hour this time. Maybe we can gain something.”
Bai Qi put his hand on Delta’s head and started to check its data carefully.
[Name]: Ancestral Beast
[Nature]: None
[Bloodline Level]: Low-level Lord
[Growth Level]: Second Stage, Four Level
[Skills]: Savage Charge (Mid-Level – Awakening), Heart of Evolution (High Level – Perfect)
[Energy Value]: 4.1000
[Condition]: Evolvable
Savage Charge is awakening?
Bai Qi’s eyes brightened, and he immediately focused his spirit power on Savage Charge.
[Skill Name]: Savage Charge
[Skill Level]: Mid-Level
[Skill Description]: Basic skill, it damages the enemy with a fast charge.
[Skill Upgrade]: ??? – Awakening: Specific data not known.
Evolution Plan: Absorb a large amount of Space Power.
Originally there were five options, but now there was only one option left: to awaken the skill. Though there wasn’t a detailed description of the skill, the Evolution Plan outlined the specifics clearly.
Failed to evolve successfully but awakened a skill instead?
Bai Qi’s mouth curled up slightly. It really required special materials, and a Space Skill, which was not bad at all.
Delta, too, got the news that it could awaken a Space Skill from Bai Qi. It looked more determined, filled with joyous surprise.
If it could become stronger, then it needed to train harder.
Knowing Delta’s direction of improvement, Bai Qi directly handed over all his remaining Space Crystal Fragments to Delta and activated the Evolution Egg.
He was merely testing the effects just now, but now that it was certain that the space department material was effective, it would naturally produce better results with the Evolution Egg.
Soon, Delta voluntarily broke the Golden Egg, and the Space Crystal Fragments disappeared completely, but there was no change in Delta’s body.
“Is it still short of materials?”
Looking at the Savage Charge that still hadn’t awakened successfully, Bai Qi scratched his head in annoyance.
Although he had evenly split the Space Crystal Fragments with Bai Qiucha, they were numerous enough but still couldn’t help Delta awaken the skill.
“Should I borrow some from Qiucha?”
Giving it some thought, Bai Qi decided against it.
Considering Delta’s feedback, it seemed like even if Bai Qiucha’s Space Crystal Fragments were poured into it, it still wouldn’t be enough. Unless they had a complete Space Crystal Stone, it might be able to awaken successfully then.
An intermediate skill awakening that consumed Mythical Material, Delta truly lived up to its name of Gold-Swallowing Beast.
“You’ve rested enough. Let’s go out and see if there’s anything else.”
Bai Qi put away Delta and left the Secret Realm, only to find that Bai Qiucha was already outside.
They were left here by Bai Heguang for training, and staying in their personal Secret Realm would not yield any results. Bai Qiucha just had a short rest and then she came out.
As for her purpose, it is naturally to find the Ferocious Beasts for actual combat training.
“Bai Qi, you are out as well. Good timing. I am planning to go deeper into the Thousand Cliff Stone Forest. Want to join?”
Because the Jiuyou Darkbird had previously rushed into the Stone Tower Secret Realm, the ferocious beasts in the vicinity had long since left. If they wanted to find beasts for battle, they had to go deeper.
“Alright!”
Bai Qi looked around and did not see the figure of the Blood Scythe Wraith. He knew that it must be hiding.
Bai Heguang left the Blood Scythe Wraith to monitor their training. If it did not hide, no beast would dare approach, making their training pointless.
Unless they encounter danger, the Blood Scythe Wraith would remain hidden.
Both of them were Four Stage Beast Masters, with strong physique. Even without summoning their pets, they quickly moved far away from the area that they initially deemed safe.
Hiss…
Soon, the two encountered their first ferocious beast.
[Name]: Wind Snake
[Attribute]: Wind type
[Bloodline Level]: High-grade Elite
[Growth Level]: Third Stage, second level
[Introduction]: A creature living atop cliffs, capable of short flights with the help of strong winds.
“Only third stage?”
Seeing that the enemy only a third stage creature, both Bai Qi and Bai Qiucha exhibited a lack of interest.
“Should we continue atop my bone dragon instead? It might be faster and scare off some lower creatures.”
Bai Qiucha, upon noticing the situation, planned to summon his Bone Dragon to drive off the Wind Snake, but Bai Qi stopped him.
“It’s fine, I can use this time to train my four pets.”
As for Alpha and Husky, they could probably instantly drain the Wind Snake of its energy and blood. However, they were a good match for Delta, whose level hadn’t yet caught up.
It would be a confidence boost for Delta.
“Four pets? Alright.”
Bai Qiucha didn’t object and stepped aside. After seeing the Ancestral Beast summoned by Bai Qi, he couldn’t help but ask, “Ancestral Beast? Bai Qi, have you not yet decided its specific development direction?”
The reason why many Beast Masters preferred Ancestral Beasts was due to their diverse evolution types giving them more options. For those indecisive Beast Masters, it was definitely a good choice.
“Not really, it’s just that Delta’s situation is a bit peculiar.”
Bai Qi gave a simple explanation of Delta’s situation, which caused Bai Qiucha to suddenly understand, but also worry a bit.
The training value of an Ancestral Beast that couldn’t evolve was a bit low.
“It’s fine, I think I’ve found a solution.”
Bai Qi patted Delta’s head and pointed to the Wind Snake still hovering in the air, “Delta, try defeating it.”
Grunt Grunt!
(Okay, Master!)
Facing the Wind Snake which had the advantage of being in the air, Delta showed no signs of dismay and instead emitted fighting spirit, roaring violently at the Wind Snake!
Hiss…
Seeing that the opponent only sent out a second stage creature, the Wind Snake felt provoken. It hissed and directed a whirlwind towards Delta.
The whirlwind was fast and reached Delta quickly, but it was effortlessly dodged by Delta.
Despite still being unable to evolve, Delta had received a lot of enhancements from numerous materials boosting both its reaction speed and basic attributes. Thus, dodging this sort of attack was a breeze.
The Wind Snake didn’t mind, and once again spewed out several whirlwinds, even mixed with a few streams of venom.
Seeing this, Delta increased the frequency of its evasions using the terrain of the Thousand Cliff Stone Forest to avoid the Wind Snake’s attacks.
However, the Wind Snake was a rightful inhabitance of the area; its knowledge of the terrain appeared superior to Delta’s. Unknowingly, Delta was cornered.
But the Wind Snake had no intention of charging directly. After enshrouding its figure in a whirlwind, it successfully randed a sneak attack on Delta from behind, opening its huge mouth.
As it’s basic instinct to carry out sneak attacks was triggered. The Wind Snake was no exception.
However, just as the Wind Snake’s fangs were about to bite into Delta, the latter suddenly spun around, and swiftly slammed into the beast.
Bang!
Caught off guard, the Wind Snake was sent flying by Delta, and its two sharp fangs shattered. They traced a graceful parabola in the air before falling to the ground.
On the other hand, Delta didn’t even suffer a scratch.
“This one’s really tough…”
Seeing the Wind Snake’s failed sneak attack and Delta’s counterattack, Bai Qi couldn’t help but chuckle.
He had clearly seen the Wind Snake’s fangs pierce Delta’s skull, yet it had no effect. Instead, it was the Wind Snake that ended up injured.
Moreover, for such an innocent creature like Delta to pull off such a tricky move was surprising. It had successfully executed a reverse sneak attack.
However, it was a pity that although Delta’s head was tough, its Savage Charge needed a certain distance for acceleration. The close distance hadn’t been enough to deal a significant blow. Once the Wind Snake recovered from the shock, it immediately responded with a direct hit.
Hiss…
After being tricked once, the Wind Snake was naturally hesitant to get close to Delta again. After instinctively retaliated, it immediately drew some distance.
However, before the Wind Snake could adjust its status and mount another attack, it saw a burst of light flash by, followed by a similar-looking black Wind Snake flying toward it through the whirlwinds. Delta had already disappeared from sight.
Wind Snake:”???”
The already dazed Wind Snake was even more confused. As it belatedly noticed the “comrade” darting toward it, it was instantly hit in the face by the black Wind Snake. The considerable force of the impact was so high that it shattered the surrounding space, and the snake, now dizzy, fell from the sky.
After the Wind Snake fell, the black snake slithered slowly back to Bai Qi’s side, affectionately rubbing its head against Bai Qi’s forehead.
“This is… your Ancestral Beast?”
Bai Qiucha looked at the dramatically transformed Delta in surprise, obviously not quite understanding.
“Delta easily evolves when affected by external energy, but with only a change in appearance.”
Bai Qi patted Delta’s head, very pleased with its first battle performance.
Although it could only change forms and still only used Savage Charge, the effect was surprisingly good.
Moreover, it seemed as though some space attributes were included in that impact?
