Beast Taming: My spirit beast bloodline is overloaded

Chapter 243 Successful Evolution, Transformation of Strength

At this moment, when Xiaobai enters its Holy Dawn Beast state, the most conspicuous feature is indeed its pupils.

Compared to before, Xiaobai now truly has heterochromia, with dark red pupils and blood-red runes rotating counterclockwise.

Looking at its size, it is much larger than when it is in its Kui Spirit Beast form, and its horns are also much bigger.

Lin Chen also had Xiaobai demonstrate the Eternal Demon Horn, as it was its only skill that allowed it to change its appearance.

Little White let out a moo, revealing its full beastly power.

Then its horns emitted a blackish-blue light, and upon closer inspection, one could clearly see that the color of the divine patterns on its horns had changed after this evolution.

Just as everyone was anticipating what would happen next, they saw the blue light suddenly being absorbed by a mysterious force and flowing into the heterochromatic eyes.

Lin Chen was startled and quickly checked on Xiao Bai's condition, finding that Niu Niu was a little confused.

Just then, the Eternal Demon Horn glowed again, but only with a dark blue light. Looking at Xiaobai's heterochromatic eyes, one could see divine patterns flashing within them.

"What's going on?" the elder asked.

Lin Chen didn't know that the Eternal Demon Horn was originally a buff-like skill, and it was difficult to test its power after it was activated.

Suddenly, Lin Chen thought of something and said to Xiao Bai:
"Little White, unleash the Demon Bull's Appearance."

The little white ox bellowed, then activated the fifth level of the Savage Bloodline, followed by the appearance of the Demon Bull.

When that demonic bull appeared, everyone on the field stared intently.

In an instant, the demonic bull descended once more like a demon lord, but this time it appeared with its eyes closed.

When it opened its eyes, when it slowly opened its eyes, everyone was instantly stunned.

The demon bull's pupils had turned dark red, as dazzling as burning flames. Like Little White, its pupils contained blood-red runes rotating counterclockwise, as if they were a mysterious curse from ancient times.

Even more mysteriously, the dark blue divine patterns that had just flashed on the little white bull's horns now appeared clearly in the demon bull's pupils, emitting a cold, eerie light.

Lin Chen was startled. He quickly thought about it and roughly understood that the evolution of the Eternal Calamity Demon Horn this time should have been accompanied by the power of evolution being bestowed upon the Demon Bull.

It's important to know that the skill description for Eternal Demon Horn already states:

Unlocking the power of gods and demons from their seal.

This indicates that after the Eternal Demon Horn underwent its final evolution, the divine and demonic power within the Demon Bull was further unsealed.

Xiaobai also understands that no matter how much he talks, it's all empty talk; only real-world experience matters.

Under everyone's expectant gaze, Xiaobai focused intently on controlling the Demon Bull as it made its entrance.

The demon bull bent its front legs slightly, pushed off the ground with its hind legs, and its massive body lunged forward, kicking up a cloud of dust.

At the same time, Liu Gu did not dare to slack off and quickly commanded the goldfish beast to spit out crystal clear water bubbles, as he wanted to use this to test the true power of the skill.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, the Demon Bull's condition underwent an astonishing change.

The red light in its pupils suddenly burst forth, and then its original color turned blackish-red in an instant, as if every inch of its fur was stained with darkness and blood.

Now it looks more like a demon king descended from hell, exuding an aura of majesty.

The demon bull lunged forward again with great force, its speed so great that it left a red afterimage in the air.

It was like a black and red cannonball, crashing hard into the bubbles spewed out by the goldfish beast.

The pair of glowing bull horns gleamed with an eerie light as they stabbed hard into the water bubble.

Just when everyone thought it was over, an astonishing scene unfolded.

The demon bull controlled the glowing horns that were exactly the same as Little White's original body, its whole body surging with black and red light, and suddenly exerted its strength again.

In an instant, the goldfish beast's bubble burst, turning into countless tiny water droplets that dissipated into the air.

This scene left everyone speechless.

The goldfish beast is over level 50, while Xiaobai is only level 41, yet it can already break through the water bubble that is mainly for defense.

This is enough to show how terrifying the Demon Bull's appearance is.

The first to speak was the First Elder, whose insight was sharp; he began by saying:
"What breaks the bubble is not the power of this move, but the sharpness of these two bull horns."

Then he happily said to Lin Chen:
"After this evolution, the divine and demonic power within it must have increased significantly."

Lin Chen nodded in agreement. He could also see that Xiao Bai's evolution this time was even stronger than he had imagined.

However, at only level 41, it was able to break through the skills of a level 50+ spirit beast.

This alone says a lot.

“Let’s take a look at the other skills,” Lin Chen said.

The barbaric bloodline isn't over yet, so let's just exhaust it completely.

Xiao Bai immediately put his long-awaited Iron Horn Impact into practice, and to his surprise, it really did bring some good results.

Previously, the afterimages left by Xiaobai Iron Horn's impacts were the same color as his original skin, but now the afterimages appearing are actually black and red.

As for its power, it has naturally increased significantly.

However, it's hard to tell if there's been any qualitative change, because after evolving again, Xiaobai's beast power has undergone a tremendous transformation.

If you let the un-evolved and the evolved versions of the little white creatures fight, it would probably be resolved in one round.

After testing all of Xiaobai's skills, the Grand Elder said with great satisfaction, "This evolution was worth the Dragon Beard Grass."

"However, it has not yet awakened the skills belonging to the Holy Dawn Beast. Only when it truly awakens its skills can it demonstrate its Holy Beast power."

Lin Chen nodded.

"Now that Xiaobai has finished evolving, let's go back and pack our things. We'll set off the day after tomorrow," the elder said.

Lin Chen knew that the Grand Elder was preparing to take them to a new ruin, and he asked curiously:

"Elder, can you tell me now where this place is?"

The Grand Elder, once again keeping everyone in suspense, said, "You'll find out when the time comes."

Finally, Lin Chen took Xiao Bai and the others back to his residence, and he couldn't wait to test Xiao Bai again.

Just as the elder said, the biggest change in Xiaobai after this evolution is its heterochromatic eyes.

During the Spirit Beast stage, Xiao Bai's two skills were quite impressive, and Lin Chen hoped that Xiao Bai would be just as good during the Sacred Beast stage.

That night, the one person and the three animals rested together, with only the little fox occasionally getting up to check on the eggs.

On the third day, Lin Chen packed his bags and went to find the Grand Elder, who then led him to the Tree Ancestor once again.

Upon seeing the Tree Ancestor again, Lin Chen respectfully cupped his hands, and the Tree Ancestor's voice echoed in the air:

"Yu Xiu, that place is the root of the Spirit Academy. Are you sure you want to open it?"

"I'm troubling you again, Tree Ancestor." The Grand Elder cupped his hands in greeting.

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen was startled and said, "Elder, you're not going to set me up, are you? I don't want to become a sinner for the Spirit Academy for all time."

"Haha," the elder laughed loudly, "It's not that serious."

As he finished speaking, a spatial gate slowly opened, revealing before Lin Chen figures of standing people and spirit beasts. However, they were all merely lifelike stone statues!

"Terracotta Army?!"

Lin Chen blurted out those words subconsciously because the scene was just too similar.

"What terracotta warriors?" the elder asked.

"Nothing."

Lin Chen broke out in a cold sweat and immediately changed the subject, asking the Grand Elder, "Was this made by the academy?"

"No, that's not it," the elder said. "A great battle took place on Mount Ling, resulting in countless deaths and injuries. The high-level demonic beasts and spirit beasts attacked, causing the mountains and the earth to collapse. The workers who built the Spirit Academy accidentally discovered this place."

"Later, we dug up the whole place and discovered this site, which was then restored to its original state."

"You mean, these are all ancestors?" Lin Chen suddenly realized.

This is different from the Terracotta Army of the Qin King; it is naturally formed?

"Besides our ancestors, there were other demonic beasts who opened up this space. We discovered that the spiritual energy here was very abundant, so we sealed it up," the elder said. "The spiritual springs, earth veins, and heavenly lightning that you are enjoying now all actually originate from here."

Lin Chen was taken aback upon hearing this; no wonder the Spirit Academy had a continuous supply of spiritual springs.

The real reason is actually this.

"The reason we don't announce it to the public is twofold: first, we're afraid others will know about the Spirit Academy's secrets; second, these are, after all, the places where the spirits of our ancestors reside, and it wouldn't be good to disturb them further." The Grand Elder looked at Lin Chen and said, "This time you're a special case because the Heavenly Realm Mountain Tournament is related to the future of the Cangling Ancient Kingdom, so we're letting you go in and enjoy yourself."

Lin Chen was also excited when he heard this. The students outside were only enjoying what was leaking out from inside, but the spiritual energy inside was the real core.

Then the elder earnestly instructed, "I don't need to explain your temperament much, but there are some things you can't be too greedy for, especially in cultivation."

"I understand." As Lin Chen spoke, the Grand Elder glared at the little fox again. The fox was clearly guilty, because when it heard the Grand Elder say that cultivation here could be very fast, the little fox's eyes curved into crescent shapes, and it was almost drooling.

It had followed the Grand Elder for a period of time, so the Grand Elder naturally knew what kind of beast this little fox was.

"Go then," the Grand Elder waved his hand.

Lin Chen immediately took his three spirit beasts, bid farewell to the Grand Elder and the Tree Ancestor, and finally entered the Heroic Spirit Ruins.

After seeing Lin Chen enter, the Tree Ancestor closed the spatial gate. Just as the Grand Elder was about to leave, a voice suddenly rang out:
"You seem afraid of something?"

"This time on Heavenly Beast Island, he overpowered everyone from the National Academy and obtained the Immortal-grade Spirit Egg," the Grand Elder said.

"But he is with Bai Ling after all."

"The process is not important; the result is what matters most," the elder said again.

"But there is no sign of destiny about him," Tree Ancestor said, puzzled.

“That’s not what I meant,” the elder said. “No one can predict how history will unfold. Just like a while ago, the peaceful human and demon races were suddenly hit by a beast tide. Who could have imagined that?”

"So you've taken a liking to Lin Chen because he's all alone and are planning to tie him down with you?" Tree Ancestor's voice carried a hint of amusement.

Unexpectedly, the Grand Elder said, "I heard that Lin Chen met a Celestial Spirit Body in Nine Star City. Why don't you go and get together with her? It's a powerful alliance. You're bored staying here anyway."

The Tree Ancestor remained silent, but the Grand Elder felt a tremendous force that threw him away.

The Grand Elder stood up, dusted himself off, looked around to make sure no one was there, and then breathed a sigh of relief. He glared in the direction of the Tree Ancestor and said:
"I'm doing it for your own good too."

Finally, he sighed and left.

Great Wilderness

Humans have their own countries, and so do demons.

Within the territory of the Cangling Ancient Kingdom, there are three secret realms: the Great Wilderness Realm, the Western Regions Realm, and the Southern Barbarian Realm.

The three demon beast realms are the largest, inhabited by super-sized demon beasts.

This kind of giant monster is top-tier combat power.

However, just like the human race, the top combat power of the demon race does not usually come out. Generally, those who do come out are demon kings of level 70 or 80.

Now, in this desolate realm, all the demon kings have gathered. Their purpose in coming here is the Heavenly Realm Mountain Assembly a year from now.

The leader of the demon kings was a dragon scorpion, not very big, but with eight tails on its back.

The dragon scorpion and the divine fox are somewhat similar, except that the divine fox has nine tails in its divine beast form, while the dragon scorpion has ten tails.

"We cannot afford to lose this battle."

They were not speaking a human language, but a beast language.

The eight-tailed dragon scorpion spoke, and a black phoenix standing beside it also spoke in beast language: "Of course we can't just give up the forbidden zone that we've worked so hard to build."

Its name is the Dark Phoenix, and it has a dark-type phoenix bloodline.

Unexpectedly, a voice rang out, "We can't just talk the talk without walking the walk. The human race has been quite strong these past few years. They occupy the vast majority of resources in this land. If you want to defeat them, you'll need to have the fighting power."

The speaker was a Ghost Hunting Wolf King, whose words displeased the other beast kings beside him.

The Ghost Wolf King smiled and said, "My son has made up his mind to fight personally. You won't have to worry about the level 30 arena."

Upon hearing this, the crowd suppressed their displeasure.

The fact that the Ghost Wolf King personally sent his son into battle this time is also a signal that he is doing his best.

However, Lin Chen does have some connection with this son of the Ghost Hunting Wolf King.

When Lin Chen and Bai Ling encountered the unicorn being chased in the secret realm, it was this Ghost Hunting Wolf King who sent them there.

After being brutally beaten and imprisoned by Lin Chen at the Spirit Academy, the young Ghost Hunting Wolf returned home and worked hard. Now, in this Beast Domain, it is a representative of young demon kings.

When talking about his son, the Ghost Wolf King showed even more pride and said, "This time, I specially instructed it to keep its level at 39, so you don't need to worry about the level 30 arena."

As they spoke, the Dark Phoenix looked at the Dragon Scorpion King and asked, "How about we hand over this level 40 arena to you?"

Upon hearing this, the demon kings beside them all took a deep breath.

The Dragon Scorpion King also has a son, whose birth was accompanied by extraordinary phenomena. Since his birth, he has been invincible and has never suffered a defeat.

Upon entering the ruins, Lin Chen was filled with awe as he looked at the human and animal-shaped terracotta warriors beside him.

These sculptures are so lifelike, are they truly creations of nature?

"Goo!"

The little fox nudged Lin Chen, indicating that it belonged to the Divine Fox Clan.

Lin Chen glanced at it and saw that it was indeed a fox with eight tails behind it.

"Judging from its appearance, it should be a spirit beast, an ancestor. You can pay your respects," Lin Chen said to the little fox.

Goo!
The little fox bowed slightly and clasped its hands in a human-like manner.

Lin Chen then looked at the other statues and found an ox and a bear among them. Standing on high ground and looking into the distance, he saw that they were all terracotta warriors.

At this moment, Lin Chen was certain.

This could not possibly be the work of nature.

But what exactly caused all of this?
