Chapter 473 - 439: Void Beast
Chapter 473: Chapter 439: Void Beast
Ganged up on by the Hell Qilin Wolf and the Golden Radiance Moke Elephant, with fifteen Emperor-level Pet Beasts watching menacingly from the side, the Demon Realm Three-headed Dog barely managed to put up a fight.
It was effortlessly suppressed.
Finally, under the Hell Qilin Wolf’s Skill, Heaven-Tearing Claw, the creature was knocked completely unconscious, losing all ability to fight.
On the city wall, Duan Kong saw this and casually tossed a Beast Taming Ball, sucking the Demon Realm Three-headed Dog inside.
And just like that, the main culprit that had thrown all of Luoying City into a state of panic and chaos was dealt with effortlessly.
’Rumor has it that the Saint of the Void from Jiangnan Beast Taming University has already reached the Saint Spirit Level Peak and is only a step away from the Legendary Level. Seeing this now, it seems the rumors were true.’
Teacher Liang thought to himself.
Teacher Yang, on the other hand, spoke up directly to thank him. "Thank you, Director Duan. If it weren’t for you, we really wouldn’t have been able to handle this beast any time soon."
"No need to thank me."
Duan Kong waved his hand. "Between the students and teachers of the Eight Great universities, we should be helping each other out."
"Besides, student Li Qian helped me out in a big way."
Seeing that Duan Kong didn’t elaborate, Teacher Yang assumed he was referring to Li Qian finding the overlapping Dimension Plane.
Little did he know, Duan Kong’s gratitude toward Li Qian was for more than just that.
Having dealt with the little fry that was the Demon Realm Three-headed Dog, Duan Kong didn’t waste any more time. He took a step, preparing to head back, but just then, Li Qian and the other two finally arrived.
"Where’s the fight? Where’s the Demon Realm Three-headed Dog?" Seeing Duan Kong about to leave, Li Qian immediately asked.
Duan Kong smiled, juggling the Beast Taming Ball in his hand. "Here, isn’t this it?"
Li Qian stared at the Beast Taming Ball in Duan Kong’s hand, his mind short-circuiting. For a moment, he didn’t know what to say.
’It’s... over already?’
’Isn’t that a little too fast!’
’The Demon Realm Three-headed Dog was a Saint Spirit Level Pet Beast, after all. To be taken care of in just a few breaths?’
’You can’t even bring in the laundry that fast!’
"Let’s go. What are you standing there dazed for?" Finding it amusing to see Li Qian stunned, his eyes wide with shock, Duan Kong walked over and clapped him on the shoulder.
"Oh!" Li Qian snapped out of it and followed him back down.
He gave a helpless, wry smile.
’What was all that about?’
’After rushing all this way, I still didn’t get to witness the Demon Realm Three-headed Dog getting beaten down.’
’While it was a bit of a shame, it also made him realize that there are gaps even between those at the Saint Spirit Level.’
A short while later, the group returned to Luoying City. Duan Kong started a fire and took out a few skewers of meat from his Storage Equipment, happily starting to grill them.
Li Qian’s mouth twitched when he saw that the Saint Spirit Level Peak Hell Qilin Wolf was acting as a lighter.
’This Director Duan is really something else.’
Everyone sat down around the campfire. Li Qian took a sip of water and began to recount what happened after he entered the Dimensional Rift.
Upon confirming that Li Qian had indeed discovered a Dimension Plane that overlapped with Jiangnan Beast Taming University’s, looks of joy appeared on everyone’s faces.
They all knew very well what discovering an overlapping Dimension Plane meant for Shazhou Beast Taming University.
In recent years, the reason Jiangnan Beast Taming University had been able to secure its place in the second tier, surpassed only by Kyoto Beast Taming University and Zhonghai Beast Taming University, was inextricably linked to this fact.
The fact that the Dimension Planes of Jiangnan Beast Taming University and Zhonghai Beast Taming University had an overlapping area was something almost all the upper echelons of the Alliance knew.
It was precisely because of this overlapping area that Jiangnan Beast Taming University had been able to develop so rapidly.
The Extraordinary Resources and Pet Beast resources from both sides could be almost completely shared. With that, it would be strange if they didn’t develop quickly.
Now, Shazhou Beast Taming University was about to hitch a ride—no, to be precise, two rides. The opportunity to take off was right before their eyes.
Of course, for Zhonghai Beast Taming University and Jiangnan Beast Taming University, connecting their Dimension Planes with Shazhou Beast Taming University’s was also of extraordinary significance.
They too were welcoming a new opportunity for development.
The students, teachers, and high-level combatants of the two schools could also come here to train, without needing to make the long journey in the real world. Its strategic value was absolutely irreplaceable.
While they were excited, they were also a little envious of Li Qian’s good fortune.
To encounter such a fortuitous opportunity on his first trip into the Deep Elemental Plane, and to achieve such great merit—once he returned to the university, wouldn’t he be showered with so many rewards he wouldn’t know what to do with them?
But on second thought, given Li Qian’s current achievements, these rewards weren’t really a big deal.
The group sat around the campfire. Li Qian took the meat skewer that Teacher Duan handed him, which was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and began to eat with relish.
"Not bad, not bad at all. I never thought that not only is your combat power extraordinary, Teacher Duan, but your grilling skills are also exceptional," Li Qian said, giving Duan Kong a thumbs-up as he ate.
"Of course. My grilling skills are famous for being delicious, even throughout all of Jiangnan Beast Taming University."
Duan Kong said with a touch of smug pride, "You all are lucky you caught me. Ordinary people don’t get to eat my grilled meat."
"Teacher Duan, what kind of meat is this? It tastes a bit like lamb," Li Qian asked casually as he ate.
Duan Kong chuckled. "You’ve got a good palate, kid. You could actually tell. That’s right, it is lamb..."
He paused, then continued, "...It’s just not ordinary lamb. It’s the meat of a Commander Level Extraordinary Creature, the Maned Rock Sheep."
"Don’t eat too much. The Energy contained in the meat is a bit too rich for you at your current stage. You won’t be able to absorb it all."
Hearing this, Li Qian was instantly dumbfounded. He lifted the skewer in his hand and examined it closely...
’This is the meat of a Commander Level Extraordinary Creature!’
’Fuck!’
’Does he have to be so extravagant!’
’An ordinary person might not even get the chance to form a contract with a Pet Beast of this level, but here with Duan Kong, it’s just food.’
In fact, it wasn’t just Li Qian; even Teacher Liang and the other two found the situation a bit outrageous.
The group ate and chatted, laughing and talking, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
Irina saw Li Qian with his head down, tapping and poking at his smart bracelet, and asked casually, "Li Qian, what are you doing?"
"Teacher Liang, can you help me see what this is?" Li Qian waved his hand, and a ray of fluorescent light suddenly shot out from his smart bracelet.
The fluorescent light rapidly took shape in mid-air, quickly coalescing into a screen.
Displayed on the light screen was a pitch-black humanoid monster.
Hearing this, Teacher Liang glanced over casually, but upon seeing the image Li Qian was displaying, he couldn’t help but exclaim, "A Void Beast!"
"Where did you see this thing?!"
"PFFT!" Sitting nearby, Duan Kong had just taken a swig of wine when he heard the two words "Void Beast" and immediately sprayed it all out.
Seeing the reactions of Teacher Liang and Teacher Duan, Li Qian’s expression quickly turned grim.
’He knew very well that for both Teacher Liang and Teacher Duan to react with such a loss of composure, it could only mean one thing: this Void Beast was no simple matter!’
