Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

Chapter 1146: Snow Lion

But then, the heart-pounding gaze vanished, as if it had been an illusion.

Pen Jiami stared at the sea, not moving her gaze.

“What’s wrong?” Mi Jiala noticed her Pet’s unusual behavior and asked.

“Penpen.” Pen Jiami pointed at the sea and called out.

Mi Jiala pondered for a moment, then said, “Perhaps there was a powerful Pet in the sea just now looking at us. Just pay attention.”

“Penpen.”

Pen Jiami nodded and continued searching for ice wane crystal.

Time passed bit by bit, and more and more wild Pets came to search for ice wane crystal. Some even jumped directly into the sea to search.

Before long, wild Pets came one by one, holding various crystals in front of Lu Bao, showing expressions of seeking praise.

“Not this one, and not this one either.” Qiao Sang stood beside Lu Bao, acting like an assistant in the appraisal.

The wild Pets left one by one in disappointment, but quickly cheered up and continued their search.

When Qiao Sang had been appraising for an hour and still hadn’t seen a single ice wane crystal, she couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

Although many wild Pets were helping to search, most of them couldn’t identify the real ice wane crystal. They would bring any crystal they found, and she had been busy appraising them. If this continued, she didn’t know how much time would be wasted.

As thoughts flickered, she felt her clothes tugged.

Looking down, she saw Colored Flower Bud Shalala, in her Fresh Fresh Grass form, holding an irregular crystal, looking at her happily.

“ice wane crystal!” Qiao Sang took the crystal, surprised.

Colored Flower Bud Shalala nodded happily.

There were too many Pets around now, and she remembered the human’s words, so she didn’t speak.

Inside the ice wane crystal, there are hair-like substances that are not visible normally, but under sunlight or lamplight, the hair-like substances inside can be clearly seen emitting brilliant light. The more brilliant hair-like substances there are, the higher the grade of the ice wane crystal.

Qiao Sang picked up the ice wane crystal and held it up to the sun. She found that there were only two hair-like substances inside, feeling a little disappointed, but on the surface, she maintained her surprise and praised it:

“Amazing! After all this time, you’re the only one who found a real ice wane crystal.”

As soon as she said this, the nearby wild Pets gathered around, wanting to see what a real ice wane crystal looked like.

Colored Flower Bud Shalala showed a shy expression, then she thought of something and pointed at the ice wane crystal she had just found.

Though she didn’t speak, Qiao Sang still understood her meaning and said,

“It’s a D-grade ice wane crystal. We still need to keep looking.”

Colored Flower Bud Shalala showed a disappointed expression upon hearing this.

“You’re already very impressive.” Qiao Sang patted Colored Flower Bud Shalala’s head and said gently, “Don’t forget, you’re the only one who found a real one.”

“Ice Emperor.”

Lu Bao turned her head and likewise praised her with a cry.

Colored Flower Bud Shalala felt comforted, her eyes curving into a smile.

The wild Pets nearby showed envious expressions.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao floated over, actively took off her ring, and put the found ice wane crystal inside.

No one noticed that, at the same time, among the wild Pets, a sea lion-type Pet, about three meters in size and mostly white, suddenly seemed to sense something. It turned and walked towards the sea, then jumped in.

By the sea, the wild Pets continued to search for ice wane crystal.

Xiaoting Dragon was curled up on Ya Bao’s back, eyes closed, already sound asleep.

Qing Bao silently approached Ya Bao.

Wherever Ya Bao went to search, it went to search.

Steel Treasure used its clones to search everywhere.

Xiao Xunbao floated next to the wild Pets that claimed to have found something, helping with the appraisal.

Lu Bao stood still, waiting for the wild Pets to bring the found crystals to her.

However, as time passed, they still found nothing.

“Piaopiao!”

Suddenly, a sea lion-type Pet with a white head emerged from the sea, holding a crystal half the size of a fist, and cried out loudly.

Under the sunlight, it could be seen that many brilliant lights emanated from within the crystal.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao’s eyes lit up. She teleported next to the sea lion-type Pet, picked up the crystal half the size of a fist, and examined it.

As she was inspecting it, a chill ran down her spine, and she felt as if she was being watched by some terrifying presence.

Xiao Xunbao looked down at the sea, and the feeling of being stared at suddenly disappeared again.

“Penpen.”

Just then, Pen Jiami called out, indicating not to get too close to the sea, as there might be danger inside.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao called out in strong agreement, then touched the white sea lion-type Pet with her paw, bringing it back to the shore.

The sea lion-type Pet’s expression was clearly bewildered for a moment.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao handed the ice wane crystal to her Yu Beast Master.

Qiao Sang took it and held it up to the sun to examine it.

Mi Jiala also came over to examine it.

After examining it for more than ten seconds, Qiao Sang was both surprised and a little disappointed: “This seems to be an S-grade ice wane crystal.”

The surprise was finding an S-grade ice wane crystal, and the disappointment was that this ice wane crystal was not an SS-grade one.

“It is indeed an S-grade ice wane crystal.” Mi Jiala was surprised and also a little unexpected.

She hadn’t expected to find an S-grade ice wane crystal so quickly.

One must know that although S-grade materials are not as rare as SS-grade ones, they cannot be obtained simply with money. Usually, before searching for rare materials, a specialized collaborative team needs to be formed to conduct a series of complex actions such as multi-dimensional environmental surveys, and even then, they might not be found.

But now, after searching for less than a day, she had actually found an S-grade ice wane crystal…

Mi Jiala looked at Qiao Sang with a complex expression.

She could tell that her student was definitely a person of great fortune.

“Snowdrift Lion, thank you.” Qiao Sang handed the ice wane crystal to Xiao Xunbao while saying sincerely, “If you need anything in the future, just contact me.”

Snowdrift Lion, a Water and Ice dual-attribute General-level Pet, naturally possesses the snowfall characteristic, capable of changing the weather to snowfall upon appearing. It is a relatively rare Pet on Yan Tian Star.

“Piaopiao.”

Just as Qiao Sang was about to give her contact information, Snowdrift Lion shook her head, indicating that she didn’t need anything. Then, she seemed to remember something and pointed towards the sea, calling out.

“Xun!”

Xiao Xunbao showed a surprised expression and helped translate.

She said there was a place at the bottom of the sea with many more ice wane crystals, and her ice wane crystal was found near there.

“Really?” Qiao Sang confirmed with a surprised expression.

“Piaopiao.”

Snowdrift Lion nodded, then sighed and called out.

Unfortunately, there was a powerful Star Pincer Dragon there, and she couldn’t get close at all.

“Xiao Xunbao.”

Xiao Xunbao sighed, mimicking Snowdrift Lion, and helped translate.

Star Pincer Dragon, a Water and Dragon dual-attribute King-level Pet, has a very violent temperament and rarely appears. Once it goes wild, it likes to destroy everything around it… Information about the Star Pincer Dragon flashed through Qiao Sang’s mind, and she fell into thought for a moment.

Taking things from a King-level Pet’s territory wasn’t the problem; the problem was that this King-level Pet’s location was at the bottom of the sea, and Qing Bao and the others couldn’t withstand the temperature of the icy seabed.

For safety, Qing Bao and Ting Bao could be recalled into the yu beast codex, but Colored Flower Bud Shalala couldn’t… Should I still go down? Anyway, with Snowdrift Lion leading the way, we can go directly to the destination, and with Teacher Mi Jiala there, no matter how dangerous it is, it won’t be too dangerous. Colored Flower Bud Shalala can stay on the shore with Dragon King…

“Piaopiao.”

Just as she was thinking, Snowdrift Lion looked at Lu Bao and called out.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao helped translate.

She said Lu Bao looked like she was no weaker than the Star Pincer Dragon, and she could let Lu Bao accompany her down there.
