Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

Chapter 723: The perfect object to earn points (Third update)

The Ice Flower Seal shattered, revealing Qiao Sang, whose face was ashen.

“Xiao Xunbao!”

Xiao Xunbao suddenly pounced into her Yu Beast Master’s arms, crying uncontrollably.

It had been so worried!

Qiao Sang moved her hand with difficulty and weakly said, “Lu Bao… I need Lu Bao…”

Her body seemed to be intact, but she was terribly cold, and her head was still buzzing.

At this moment, a thought flashed through her mind: Good thing she had been letting Forging Worm train recently…

As the thought flickered, Qiao Sang’s vision went black.

When light returned, she saw Lu Bao.

Immediately after, she saw a blue light illuminate on Lu Bao’s body, shining towards her.

Ah, so comfortable… Qiao Sang only felt warm and cozy, like bathing in sunlight.

Her body warmed up, and her head no longer hurt.

“Giant!”

Just as Qiao Sang was being treated by the Healing Light, two Giant Rock Nikas simultaneously raised their powerful front limbs and stomped heavily on the ground.

“Boom!”

The ground trembled.

At the moment they stomped down, two massive energies suddenly exploded, centered around the two Giant Rock Nikas.

At the same time, Qiao Sang opened her eyes and quickly issued an order:

“Space Movement!”

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao cried out, its eyes glowing blue.

The next second, Qiao Sang, Xiao Xunbao, and Lu Bao disappeared from their original spot.

Immediately following was the ground where Qiao Sang had been, which shattered into dust and sank deeply.

“Giant…”

When the scene returned to quiet, the two Giant Rock Nikas looked at each other, seeing no one on the ground.

On the other side.

Charles, who was looking at the display screen, suddenly stopped.

“What’s wrong?” Carol asked.

Charles said with a grim expression, “Qiao Sang has disappeared.”

Carol: “!!!”

Carol’s face was horrified, and she covered her mouth with her hand, preventing herself from screaming.

Charles saw Carol’s expression, realized she had misunderstood, and added, “Ghost Ring King must have used Space Movement to change locations, which is why she disappeared from her original position.

Carol put down her hand, her face full of exasperation: “I hope in the future you can express yourself clearly in one go.”

Charles shrugged: “I know.”

After speaking, he looked at the display in his hand, his expression becoming serious: “We need to leave here as soon as possible. For some reason, General-level Pets are gathering more and more around here. Originally, Qiao Sang was here, so I wasn’t afraid, but now she has moved to a place far away from here.”

“We can’t handle so many General-level Pets.”

“Then let’s go quickly,” Carol said urgently.

“Wait, let me check Qiao Sang’s current location.” Charles stared at the display and operated it for a moment, then his expression changed dramatically, and he swallowed, saying, “Qiao Sang seems to be not far from the core of Mount Bazhi…”

Carol’s face instantly turned deathly pale: “Are we still going to look for her?”

Charles pondered for a moment, then gritted his teeth: “We still have to go look.”

Qiao Sang’s Ghost Ring King has Space Movement; as long as they meet up successfully, they will definitely be able to get out smoothly.

Besides, Qiao Sang is a new student, just enrolled, and with such unusual talent, if something were to happen to her because she teamed up with him for a wild adventure, he couldn’t bear the responsibility.

Carol took a deep breath and said, “Okay, then let’s go together!”

As she spoke, she suddenly fell silent, hesitating: “Do you hear anything?”

“Yes…” Charles frowned tightly, looking down at the ground.

The next second, the ground trembled.

Suddenly, an enormous figure leaped out from underground.

Charles looked at the Pet in front of him and said in a deep voice:

“Giant Rock Nika. This kind of Pet sometimes moves underground, no wonder it didn’t show up on the detector. Be careful, this kind of Pet…”

As he was speaking, the ground trembled again.

“Giant!”

Immediately after, another Giant Rock Nika leaped out from underground.

Carol and Charles felt a chill in their hearts. Without a word, they simultaneously formed hand seals.

Qiao Sang, I’m sorry. It seems I can only go find you later… Charles looked at the two Giant Rock Nikas in front of him, his expression grave.

Qiao Sang glanced at her surroundings, her tense nerves relaxing slightly, and she unconsciously let out a breath of stale air.

She turned to speak to Lu Bao, but when she turned her head, she saw Xiao Xunbao’s large face.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao rubbed its Yu Beast Master’s head hard.

It had been so worried just now!

You worried about me and then zapped me… Qiao Sang pushed Xiao Xunbao’s head expressionlessly. She didn’t want to talk to it right now.

“Xiao Xunbao…”

Xiao Xunbao was pushed aside, froze for a moment, and showed a hurt expression.

Qiao Sang’s mouth twitched, and she said, “I just came out of the ice, and I’m still a bit uncomfortable.”

“Xiao Xunbao…”

Xiao Xunbao believed her, its hurt expression vanished, replaced by an expression of “Good thing I zapped quickly just now.”

Qiao Sang: “…”

“Ice Ke…”

At this moment, Lu Bao cried out, feeling down.

Qiao Sang looked at Lu Bao, and her heart instantly softened.

“I’m fine. It was mainly because the initial transfer location wasn’t good, right within the range of your Ice Flower Seal,” Qiao Sang comforted.

“Xiao Xunbao?”

Xiao Xunbao tilted its head.

Why did it feel like she was hinting at it?

“Ice Ke…”

Lu Bao’s tail drooped, and its mood didn’t improve because of that remark.

Qiao Sang was about to say something else when she suddenly realized that the surroundings had become eerily silent again, without even the most basic insect chirps.

She looked around. The tree shadows swayed, and she felt as if something was watching them.

More wild Pets… Realizing this, Qiao Sang didn’t dare to delay for a moment. She formed hand seals and began to summon Ya Bao and Steel Treasure.

Soon, Ya Bao and Steel Treasure appeared in the star array one after another.

“Ya Ya…”

Ya Bao lay on the ground with its eyes closed, occasionally grinning, clearly having a sweet dream.

“Steel Guard…”

Steel Treasure seemed to sense the change in environment. It opened its eyes, quickly became alert upon seeing the unfamiliar surroundings, and stood beside its Yu Beast Master.

Look at them… Qiao Sang looked at the sleeping Ya Bao with a sense of disappointment, saying:

“Xiao Xunbao, Tongue Lick.”

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao floated next to Ya Bao, stuck out its tongue, and gave its face a fierce lick.

“Ya Ya…”

Ya Bao’s expression struggled for a moment, as if caught in a nightmare, then it rolled over, its expression relaxed, and it continued to sleep soundly.

“Xiao Xunbao…”

Xiao Xunbao, seeing this, couldn’t help but show an expression of admiration.

Qiao Sang: “…”

Just then, Steel Treasure beside them seemed to sense something. Its body trembled, and a dozen feathers immediately glowed purple as they shot towards a nearby tree trunk.

“Bang bang bang!”

The purple feathers shot out, riddling the tree trunk with holes and making the leaves shake.

Vaguely, Qiao Sang saw white silk threads suspended in front of her.

Qiao Sang froze for a moment, and as she prepared to look closer, a spider-type Pet, about 30 centimeters in size, with a pink head and abdomen and a horn on its head, crawled out from the direction of the tree trunk.

Immediately after, two, three… ten…

Countless spider-type Pets crawled out from all directions!

They didn’t crawl towards the ground, but rather gathered in mid-air step by step, as if walking on air!

Qiao Sang took a deep breath, trying to keep her composure.

She concentrated and saw white silk threads connecting tree trunk to tree trunk.

And these silk threads crisscrossed, forming a dense web that covered almost the entire sky above!

“Xiao Xunbao!”

Xiao Xunbao, seeing so many insect-type Pets, shivered, and its eyes instinctively glowed blue, wanting to use Space Movement.

“Don’t go!” Qiao Sang said seriously, “We need to stay and fight.”

Low-level Pets, Nin Hunter Spiders, and so many of them—they were simply perfect for gaining Point!
