Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

Chapter 607: Finished

Ya! ran upwards.

But the thick fog also seemed to be moving.

The veil-like mist drifted with the airflow, following Ya!’s direction, all the way up.

After running for nearly a minute without getting out of the thick fog, Qiao Sang patted Ya!’s back, signaling her to stop.

Ya! understood her Yu Beast Master’s meaning, stopped in mid-air, and observed the surrounding changes vigilantly.

Qiao Sang sat on Ya!’s back, her mind highly active.

It seemed running high into the sky wouldn’t work either. Mist Shadow Arc hadn’t appeared. Was it planning to trap her here until she died?

Mist Shadow Arc was a General-level Pet, not to mention it was in the dark…

Should she just let Ya! launch a large-scale attack to draw it out directly?

She might not win a normal 1v1, but after Ya! activated the Profound Level Mars Rain, this fog would definitely disperse. Once the thick fog’s influence was gone, she could summon Xiao Xunbao back. With Xiao Xunbao, plus Ya! and Lu Bao, she wasn’t without a chance against a wild General-level Pet…

The only trouble was that this was a wild Pet habitat. If Ya! used Mars Rain, such a large-area attack might involve other wild Pets and draw their aggro…

As she was thinking, a small Xiao Xunbao suddenly appeared beside her.

Before it could even speak, Ya! quickly retreated backward, creating distance, and a striking Flame Vortex suddenly flickered in the thick fog, beautiful and dazzling, directly hitting Xiao Xunbao.

Just as the Flame Vortex shot out, Qiao Sang’s eyes suddenly widened, and she exclaimed:

“This is real!”

“Ya! Ya!”

Ya! was startled.

Fortunately, Xiao Xunbao’s reaction was not to be underestimated. It dodged the Flame Vortex’s attack with a Space Movement.

“Xiao Xunbao!”

After dodging, Xiao Xunbao teleported back, looking at Ya! with an incredulous, hurt expression.

“Ya! Ya!…”

Ya! felt guilty and dared not meet its gaze.

“Just now, a fake Ghost Ring Spirit came over. Ya! thought you were fake too,” Qiao Sang quickly explained.

“Xiao Xunbao…”

Xiao Xunbao showed an “oh, I see” expression, then shook its head at Ya! as if sighing.

Big Brother Ya! is so stupid, she can’t even tell the real from the fake.

“Ya! Ya!…”

Ya! wanted to retort, but she remembered her previous attack and felt speechless.

“Alright,” Qiao Sang ended the topic, her expression serious. “The important thing now is to lure out Mist Shadow Arc, otherwise we’ll be trapped here indefinitely.”

After speaking, she was about to tell Ya! to use Mars Rain.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

But at this moment, Xiao Xunbao raised its left paw and called out as if asking for praise.

Qiao Sang looked over and saw that Xiao Xunbao’s left paw was connected to a 3D Dark Shadow Control, extending downwards, piercing straight through the thick fog.

Qiao Sang: “!!!”

“The other end of this isn’t connected to Mist Shadow Arc, is it?” Qiao Sang’s face showed obvious surprise.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao nodded.

Awesome! Qiao Sang’s eyes suddenly lit up: “How did you think of connecting to it with a shadow?”

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao saw her Yu Beast Master’s reaction and knew she had done something big. She called out, her tone and expression relaxed and confident, looking like “I just did it casually,” indicating that this guy was at the end of the thick fog, and she thought of pulling it to get through this thick fog so they wouldn’t get lost.

Having a smart Pet is simply too convenient… Qiao Sang was overjoyed, then thought of something and asked, confused: “It just let you pull it with a shadow?”

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao waved its paw. That guy was sleeping and didn’t notice her at all.

Wait, sleeping? So, this thick fog was cast unconsciously? Impossible… Qiao Sang always felt something was off.

“Steel Treasure!”

At this moment, Steel Treasure, who was still being held by Qiao Sang, called out very seriously.

Qiao Sang then realized she was still holding Steel Treasure and quickly let go.

“Steel Treasure!”

Steel Treasure flapped its wings and flew aside, repeating what it had just said with a serious expression.

Qiao Sang was silent for a moment, then asked with difficulty: “You mean there are two Mist Shadow Arcs here?”

“Steel Treasure!”

Steel Treasure nodded seriously.

That explains it. No wonder Xiao Xunbao’s shadow was tied to Mist Shadow Arc and there was no reaction. It turns out there are two… It’s over, it’s over. One General-level Pet, she might have a chance to fight, but two General-level Pets, how can she fight?… Qiao Sang didn’t doubt Steel Treasure’s words at all. She took a deep breath, trying to calm down.

There’s still one more way…

Qiao Sang turned to look at Steel Treasure, and said very quickly:

“Let’s go. We’ll use Space Movement to get out. I’m not sure if we’ll still be near your home after we move, but I promise, I’ll bring you back next time.”

Xiao Xunbao wasn’t familiar with this terrain, and even more so in the thick fog, Space Movement definitely couldn’t achieve precise coordinate positioning, but at a time like this, safety was the most important thing.

“Steel Treasure!”

Steel Treasure nodded without hesitation.

It had always been rational and knew that leaving in this situation was the best choice.

Qiao Sang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then immediately turned to look at Xiao Xunbao: “Xiao Xunbao…”

Just then, the thick fog churned, and a gust of wind blew, blowing off the hat on Steel Treasure’s head, which fell into the thick fog.

Steel Treasure felt its head get cold, looked in the direction where the hat fell, its pupils slightly contracted, and subconsciously flapped its wings to chase after it.

Qiao Sang: “!!!”

Qiao Sang was stunned. She never expected that Steel Treasure, who was always smart and knew how to assess the situation, would put itself in danger for a hat.

This was not like her at all…

Qiao Sang didn’t have time to think further and quickly sensed Steel Treasure’s position.

Couldn’t sense it… Qiao Sang’s body tensed up.

Steel Treasure was not like Xiao Xunbao; it was still just a Beginner Pet, it couldn’t be invisible, nor could it teleport or use Space Movement. If it encountered Mist Shadow Arc in the thick fog, even if it was injured, she couldn’t retrieve it into the yu beast codex…

Thinking of this, Qiao Sang no longer hesitated and said in a low voice the first plan she had thought of:

“Ya!, Mars Rain.”

“Ya!”

Ya! cried out loudly, tilting her head slightly, and an Energy Ball containing terrifying power swiftly rose into the sky from her mouth with a “whoosh.”

When it reached its highest point, it exploded suddenly.

Fire rain fell, wildly stirring the vast white thick fog.

“Bang bang bang!”

Accompanied by deafening explosions, a burning crimson could vaguely be seen below.

“Steel Treasure…”

Steel Treasure actually regretted it a little as soon as it came down.

It felt like it had been possessed just now, actually chasing after a hat.

It was “forced” to wear the hat itself, so it was better to lose it.

Even if it wanted to cover the bald part, it could buy a new one.

Why did it chase it down…

Steel Treasure analyzed rationally, but its downward Flying speed did not decrease, but rather subtly accelerated.

Soon, it saw that lavender color belonging to the hat.

“Steel Treasure!”

Steel Treasure’s eyes lit up, and it sped up, picking up the hat in its mouth.

Suddenly, it realized something and stiffly raised its head.

It saw a pair of red eyes, several times larger than its entire body, staring coldly at it.

“Steel Treasure…”

Steel Treasure’s mind went blank for a moment.

No matter how smart it was, it was still just a young beast less than a year old, and had never experienced such a powerful presence’s direct pressure.

Steel Treasure held the hat tightly, deeply feeling its own insignificance.

At this moment, the surrounding temperature suddenly rose.

Steel Treasure seemed to understand something and looked up blankly.

Large patches of firelight fell.

“Bang bang bang!”

“Mist Shadow!”

With continuous loud bangs, the previously cold red eyes in front of it turned into an expression of pain.

Steel Treasure’s eyes suddenly lit up, and it flapped its wings, preparing to hide under Mist Shadow Arc’s huge head.

But in the next moment, a fiery shadow flashed past, and Steel Treasure suddenly felt itself in a warm and familiar place.

“Are you alright?” Qiao Sang asked.

“Steel Treasure…”

Steel Treasure looked up at Qiao Sang, its expression blank, looking a bit silly.

It’s over, it seems to have been scared silly… Qiao Sang’s heart sank, and she called out: “Xiao Xunbao!”

Forget it, everything else can wait until we escape!
