Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

Chapter 1188: Absorb Fire Spirit Crystal (two in one)

“Colored Flower Bud Shalala.”

Colored Flower Bud Shalala called out, indicating, “I don’t think that’s the reason.”

Ouyas’s body stiffened.

“Then what is it?” Qiao Sang couldn’t help but ask.

“Colored Flower Bud Shalala.”

Colored Flower Bud Shalala calmly called out.

“You think the future is real, and you’re about to die, so to prevent humans from researching that fire spirit crystal is your tears after you’re gone, you want to quickly destroy them.”

Ouyas’s body stiffened even more.

“Steel Treasure.”

Steel Treasure translated in Qiao Sang’s mind.

So that’s how it is… Qiao Sang suddenly understood, feeling that this reason was much more reasonable.

After all, they were King-level Pets; getting stronger by eating one’s own tears seemed a bit outrageous.

Just as she was thinking, Mi Jiala coughed beside her.

Qiao Sang immediately translated what Colored Flower Bud Shalala had just said.

Mi Jiala pondered and said, “No wonder even after a hundred years, there was no information about how fire spirit crystal was formed.”

Hearing this, Ouyas relaxed, looked at Colored Flower Bud Shalala, and stubbornly called out:

“Li Li.”

“Don’t think too much; it just came here to get stronger.”

“Colored Flower Bud Shalala?”

Colored Flower Bud Shalala called out faintly.

“Is that so?”

Before Ouyas could answer, Colored Flower Bud Shalala called out again:

“Colored Flower Bud Shalala.”

“We’ve known each other for so long; is there anything you can’t tell me?”

Its expression was slightly sad, a look it had never shown before.

“Re Li.”

Reli Loca couldn’t bear to see Colored Flower Bud Shalala show such an expression. It looked at Ouyas and urged, “Just say it.”

“Steel Treasure.”

“Steel Treasure.”

Steel Treasure translated their conversation one by one in Qiao Sang’s mind.

Is there another hidden reason… Qiao Sang pricked up her ears, waiting for the next conversation.

Ya and the others also pricked up their ears, waiting.

However, the scene fell silent.

Under everyone’s gaze, Ouyas ate fire spirit crystal while showing an impatient expression and called out:

“Li Li.”

“Anyway, that’s the reason; believe it or not.”

Saying that, it looked at Ya, suddenly raised its paw, threw a piece of fire spirit crystal over, and called out:

“Li Li.”

“You’re doing nothing staying here; have some.”

The moment it was thrown over, Xiao Xunbao, who was next to Ya, was startled and teleported several hundred meters away.

Ya’s eyes lit up. It jumped up, opened its mouth to catch it, and with a “crunch,” bit it into pieces.

“Xiao Xunbao…”

Xiao Xunbao, seeing that nothing happened, quietly teleported back.

“Coward, and you still want to be the boss…” Qing Bao looked at Xiao Xunbao with disdain.

It actually offered Ya fire spirit crystal… Qiao Sang’s heart stirred, and she said, “Thank you.”

Now, being weighed down by the impending meteor shower, she was too emotional to be excited.

Ouyas did not respond.

“Ya Ya?”

After eating a fire spirit crystal, Ya looked at Ouyas with an expectant expression and called out, indicating, “Can I eat more?”

“Li Li.”

Ouyas called out indifferently, indicating, “As you wish.”

“Ya Ya!”

Upon hearing this, Ya called out excitedly, mimicking Ouyas, and directly grabbed a handful of fire spirit crystal to stuff into its mouth.

“Holy cow, that’s too much to eat at once…” Qiao Sang’s heart skipped a beat.

She still remembered the incident where the fire spirit crystal explosion directly destroyed a racial territory.

Mi Jiala’s expression hardened upon seeing this. She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but remembering that this opportunity was rare, she ultimately said nothing.

Xiao Xunbao, who was beside them, endured and endured, finally unable to hold back, and called out worriedly:

“Xiao Xunbao…”

“Is it really okay to eat like this? Will the fire spirit crystal explode?”

Ya’s eating motion stopped, its body slightly stiff.

Qiao Sang, who was about to ask, closed her mouth, thinking, “Good job, Xiao Xunbao; you asked exactly what was on my mind.”

“Li Li.”

Ouyas showed an amused expression and called out, indicating that with it present, the fire spirit crystal here would not possibly explode.

Its tone didn’t change much, but its expression contained immense confidence.

“Colored Flower Bud Shalala.”

Colored Flower Bud Shalala added, indicating that Ouyas could suppress all unstable fire-type energy around it. Even if the fire spirit crystal showed a tendency to explode, it could immediately suppress it, even if it was inside another Pet.

“That puts my mind at ease…” Qiao Sang quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

“Ya Ya!”

Ya relaxed, wagged its tail, and stuffed another handful of fire spirit crystal into its mouth.

Xiao Xunbao was stunned, gave a thumbs-up, and called out with an incredibly sincere tone:

“Xun!”

“Amazing.”

Ouyas ate the fire spirit crystal, not responding, calmly accepting the praise.

Mi Jiala glanced at Ya, who was eating fire spirit crystal in large mouthfuls, pulled Qiao Sang aside, and asked in a low voice:

“What did Ouyas just say?”

“It said…” Qiao Sang rattled off and repeated what Ouyas and Colored Flower Bud Shalala had just said.

Mi Jiala pondered for a moment and said:

“This is indeed an opportunity for Yan Jiaoou to quickly increase its strength, but since these are materials produced by a King-level Pet, the amount used still needs to be careful.”

“Li Li.”

Ouyas called out indifferently, indicating, “What’s there to be careful about? As long as it can absorb it, it can reach the current energy limit.”

Upon hearing this, Ya’s eyes lit up, and it ate even more happily.

“Steel Treasure.”

Steel Treasure translated in Qiao Sang’s mind.

“Directly reach the King-level limit…” At this moment, Qiao Sang seemed to hear her own rapid heartbeat.

That’s right, these fire spirit crystals might not significantly increase Ouyas’s strength, but for Ya, who was still King-level, they were definitely a fire-type treasure.

If Ya could evolve directly, it might even continue to absorb at the Emperor-level… Qiao Sang took a deep breath, calmed her heartbeat, gathered her thoughts, and said:

“What’s there to be careful about…”

Mi Jiala: “???”

Qiao Sang saw Teacher Mi Jiala’s bewildered expression, realized something, and quickly added:

“This is what Ouyas said; I’m translating its words.”

Mi Jiala’s expression returned to normal.

Qiao Sang continued, “It also said that as long as Ya can absorb it, it can reach the current energy limit.”

Mi Jiala was stunned upon hearing this, then couldn’t help but say:

“Still, pay attention to Yan Jiaoou’s absorption of the fire spirit crystal.”

In her opinion, fire spirit crystal was too rare, and in later times, very little related information circulated. Ouyas was a King-level Pet, having been away from normal Pets for too long; how could it know the tolerance of King-level fire-type Pets?

What was easy for it to absorb might be a disaster for Pets of other levels.

Furthermore, when a Pet reached the King-level, even if it was exceptionally talented and had abundant resources, it would still take several years to cross each small stage. All Pets have a limited amount of energy they can absorb; Mi Jiala deeply understood this principle.

“I understand.” Qiao Sang said seriously.

If Ya fails to absorb it, it will sense it itself. Even if it absorbs too much at once and can’t digest it, causing energy紊乱, Lu Lu can heal it and stop absorbing it. As long as it doesn’t explode, there’s no need to worry too much.

After saying that, she immediately thought of something, entered the yu beast codex with her consciousness, and quickly turned to the page about Ya.

“Name: Yan Jiaoou”

“Attribute: Fire, Superpower”

When she saw the “Level” column, Qiao Sang showed a stunned expression.

The data behind it was changing rapidly in a blurry way that was invisible to the naked eye, but with her eyesight, she could still see that the data was rising in a straight line.

It’s actually improving so fast…

While surprised, Qiao Sang inevitably became a little worried again.

If it’s really as Ouyas said, as long as Ya can absorb it, it can reach the King-level limit. Then, with the Gold Finger, it will definitely evolve.

Teacher Mi Jiala is an S-Class Beast Master with extraordinary insight. If Ya keeps absorbing and then evolves directly without any external evolutionary conditions, it will inevitably arouse suspicion…

Just as she was thinking, Qiao Sang heard a sound from outside and her consciousness returned to reality.

As soon as she returned, she saw Xiao Xunbao, at some point, had moved next to Colored Flower Bud Shalala and called out flatteringly:

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Do you know any God-level Ghost-type Pets, preferably ones whose tears can also increase Ghost-type energy?

“Xia Xia.”

Colored Flower Bud Shalala smiled and shook its head.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao didn’t give up. It floated to Ouyas’s side, showing a flattering expression, and repeated what it had just said.

Ouyas glanced at it indifferently.

“Xiao Xunbao…”

Xiao Xunbao suddenly remembered that night a few days ago when it fainted just by being looked at by the other party, and quickly floated back to its Yu Beast Master’s side.

“Li Li.”

Ouyas ate fire spirit crystal and called out, indicating that there were no God-level Ghost-type Pets on this planet yet.

“Xiao Xunbao…”

Xiao Xunbao showed a disappointed expression.

Qiao Sang didn’t feel too surprised.

Each race of Pet has its own suitable environment. The environment of Yan Tian Star is obviously more conducive to Fire-type Pets, not Ghost-type Pets.

The sun here is scorching, and the daytime is extremely long. At a certain stage, the daytime can even last for more than 20 hours, demonstrating the phenomenon of long days and short nights to the extreme, which is not suitable for Ghost-type Pets to survive for a long time.

She then thought of something, collected her thoughts, looked at Xiao Xunbao, and said:

“Take out an invariable stone.”

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao took off the ring, enlarged it, and poked its head in to rummage around.

Mi Jiala frowned slightly and asked:

“You want Yan Jiaoou to wear an invariable stone?”

Qiao Sang had long prepared for this question and nodded, “Yes.”

“I’m more inclined to what Ouyas said, that as long as Ya can absorb it, it can reach the King-level limit. I already know Ya’s next evolution conditions. I want to wait until I go back to have all its data tested before performing a perfect evolution.”

Mi Jiala: “…”

Is it that simple for a King-level Pet to reach its energy limit? Besides, Yan Jiaoou being close to the sun is too vague. Wouldn’t it be a good thing if it really evolved like that?

Mi Jiala opened her mouth, but ultimately didn’t voice her thoughts.

On the one hand, Ouyas was right next to her, so she couldn’t openly question it. On the other hand, in her opinion, the energy Yan Jiaoou absorbed was definitely limited, and it was impossible to reach the King-level limit in a short time. It wouldn’t be too late to discuss the invariable stone after the matter here was over and they returned.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao took out the invariable stone strung with a rope and helped tie it to Ya’s paw.

Ya continued to eat the fire spirit crystal in large mouthfuls.

Lu Lu was surrounded by Qing Bao and the others.

Colored Flower Bud Shalala looked at Ouyas, then at the dazzling sunlight in the sky, not knowing what it was thinking.

The atmosphere suddenly became quiet; everyone seemed to be doing their own thing.

Qiao Sang came to Lu Lu’s side and sat down cross-legged.

Even though the ground here was so hot it felt like it could cook things directly, she didn’t feel much after multiple feedbacks from Ya.

Ya also didn’t know how much of these fire spirit crystals it could absorb.

It’s best if it can reach the King-level limit. After all, the opportunity to eat fire spirit crystal without limit might not come a second time.

If Ya’s energy really reached its limit, she would have to arrange its evolution after returning.

Evolving near the sun, is it really that simple…

Wait!

Suddenly, a forgotten matter surfaced in her mind.

The time for the meteor shower was in a few days. Why did Ouyas suddenly leave and come here? She had actually forgotten all about these things just now!

Ouyas deliberately let Ya absorb fire spirit crystal to distract them!

Thinking of this, Qiao Sang suddenly looked at Ouyas.

A thought surfaced in her mind:

Ouyas definitely knew something, otherwise it wouldn’t have suddenly returned to Zhengzhou, nor would it have used fire spirit crystal to distract them for no reason.

Qiao Sang’s mood inexplicably became heavy.

To be honest, she knew the inevitable tragic end of Ouyas and Colored Flower Bud Shalala before she came, but the longer she spent with them, the heavier her heart felt when she thought about it.

After tens of seconds of silence, Qiao Sang finally spoke:

“Ouyas, do you already know what’s going to happen next?”

She couldn’t pretend to be deaf and dumb, acting as if she hadn’t thought of anything, letting Ya absorb fire spirit crystal there and waiting for everything to happen.

All eyes turned to Ouyas again.

Ouyas’s body stiffened, and it looked at the human who spoke with considerable annoyance.

“Xia Xia?”

At this moment, Colored Flower Bud Shalala called out with a solemn expression:

Is there something wrong with the sun?

“Steel Chief.”

Steel Treasure translated in its mind.

Something wrong with the sun? Qiao Sang was stunned.

Ouyas looked at Colored Flower Bud Shalala, showing an expression of “How could you think that?” and called out:

“Li Li.”

Don’t think too much.

Colored Flower Bud Shalala looked at it, then suddenly transformed into a green light and shot straight up into the sky.

Ouyas’s pupils constricted, and it cried out anxiously:

“Li Li!”

Then, a red barrier instantly covered the entire sky.

“Re Li?”

Reli Loca looked bewildered, not knowing what was happening.

Colored Flower Bud Shalala stopped beneath the barrier and looked down at Ouyas.

After a few seconds of staring at each other, Ouyas suddenly sighed, showed a wry smile, and called out:

“Li Li…” (End of chapter)
