Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Indefinitely

Chapter 162: The King’s Stance

Translator: 549690339

Seeing that it had suddenly lost a target, the Saber-toothed Tiger looked around warily and swung its paw around, instantly dispersing the icy dust and revealing Alpha’s figure.

At this sight, the sharp teeth on the edge of the Saber-toothed Tiger’s mouth began to shimmer. It then spat out countless Light Teeth towards Alpha.

Crack!

The Light Teeth directly hit Alpha, causing Alpha’s figure to shatter like a mirror and turn into icy dust once again.

It was merely a reflection in the Ice Crystal Barrier. The real Alpha silently emerged from the ice dust behind Saber-toothed Tiger, stabbing his double swords at the back of the Saber-toothed Tiger’s neck with synchronized strikes.

Roar!

However, the Saber-toothed Tiger was not so easily ambushed. Just as Alpha was about to strike, it swiftly dodged to one side, and instinctively snapped at Alpha.

But right at that moment, a Thunder Flame power rushed from afar, directly hitting the Saber-toothed Tiger’s eyes. The Saber-toothed Tiger shrank its neck out of pain, failing to bite Alpha.

Awooo, awooo!

(Damn bonehead is still too weak. Without me, you’d be dead.)

Beta, who had successfully saved Alpha, raised his head high, declaring his victory. Alpha, hearing this, gave no response, but created an Ice Crystal Barrier in the sky, making a heavy step on it. Taking advantage of the Saber-toothed Tiger’s blind spot, Alpha directly thrust his Withering Sword into the Saber- toothed Tiger’s eyes.

Seeing this, Tangmiao and Li Xusheng immediately seized the opportunity. They headed towards the Saber-toothed Tiger’s blind spot where they concentrated their attacks on its front limbs.

The Saber-toothed Tiger was enormous in size. Enduring the blows head-on was impossible, so they needed to disable its mobility first.

Roar!!!

Finally released from its long-imprisoned cage, not getting a chance to flex its power yet, it had been blinded by these tiny bugs. The Saber-toothed Tiger’s suppressed savagery for so many years finally erupted.

A black, invisible field of influence burst out from the Saber-toothed Tiger. Whether it was Alpha, who was just about to take advantage of the momentum, or Li Xusheng and Tangmiao, who were preparing to launch an attack on the Saber-toothed Tiger, they all felt a sluggish flow of energy once wrapped by this field.

“A King’s Field?!”

Wang Huai saw the situation, gritted his teeth, and immediately commanded the Barrier Tree Man to pull Li Xusheng and Tangmiao out of the encirclement of the Field.

The King’s Field was a special skill mastered only by king-level creatures, similar to Intimidation, but not entirely the same.

If Intimidation was a lord creature declaring its position on a spiritual level, then the King’s Field was an outright declaration of its dominion on an energy level.

Succinctly put, within the coverage of the King’s Field, other types of energy would be suppressed, and the only thing capable of countering it was the King’s Field itself.

Krak-kraa.

(Boss, it seems like my energy can’t be released anymore, and its operation is quite slow.)

The moment the Saber-toothed Tiger activated its King’s Field, Alpha immediately reported his current state.

“Affects energy flow…”

Bai Qi paused after hearing it, watched the approaching black field sphere and after a brief ponder, he said, “If energy attacks won’t work, then let’s try physical attacks.”

Krak-kraa.

(Understood, boss!)

Alpha got it at once, directly generated six Bone Blades, and began to madly strike at the Saber-toothed Tiger.

“That works too?”

Seeing Alpha forcefully counteracting the Field’s influence and launching a frenzy of attacks on the Saber-toothed Tiger, Tangmiao and Li Xusheng exchanged looks. They were about to follow suit when they were pulled out by Wang Huai.

“Breaking the King’s Field isn’t that easy. Bai Qi, you should call back your pet.”

Wang Huai looked towards Bai Qi, intending to advise him to call back Alpha, but suddenly found that the King’s Field of the Saber-toothed Tiger had risen again, enveloping them as well.

‘I guess there’s no need to hide anymore.¹

Bai Qi shrugged, watching the Husky who was unable to freely launch an attack due to being enveloped in the Field, he plunged into deep thought.

The energy cannon attacks, although functionally superior to traditional ammunition attacks, could be quite troublesome in situations like this. He would have to ask Schuck to add some other combat modes afterwards.

But first, he had to deal with the enemy at hand.

As Wang Huai said, once the Saber-toothed Tiger’s King’s Field was activated, it had complete control over all actions within its range. The so-called blind spots were completely eliminated, with a light stomp, countless Wind Blades rolled towards Alpha.

Alpha, seeing this, never stopped his attack. He simply dodged and moved around the Saber-toothed Tiger. Wherever he passed, numerous wounds were left, all bleeding profusely.

“Bai Qi, are you sure you are truly just a Third Stage Beast Master?”

Seeing the immense damage inflicted on the Saber-toothed Tiger by Alpha alone, Tangmiao was dumbfounded.

Her sky-attacking mantis was also a speed type, which was enhanced with fusion, but not as fast as Alpha, let alone having three heads and six arms.

“That’s right, I am a Third Stage, but Alpha was only a speed variant.”

“I see, that explains it.”

After hearing Bai Qi’s explanation, Tangmiao and the others finally understood. The advantage of mutant species could indeed continue to expand with level advancements, so it was perfectly normal for them to surpass normal creatures.

“But what happened to those injuries? Our attacks on the saber-toothed tiger seem to have mysteriously healed rapidly.”

Bai Qi replied, “It was nothing major, I just fortified Alpha with a few battle runes.”

Dark series rune, bleeding.

When Bai Qi initially chose the runes for Alpha, he had not anticipated that Alpha would evolve into a being with withering power. Considering that Alpha’s skeleton manipulation was primarily physical attacks, he decided to inscribe a bleeding rune onto it.

Originally, he thought that with the withering power present, the bleeding rune would be completely shelved. It turns out that, it was put to use after all.

“Battle rune?”

Wang Huai and others looked at each other, surprise reflected in their eyes.

It seemed the rumors weren’t entirely credible – whether it was monster training or combat experience, Bai Qi wasn’t anything like the second- generation competitor that was rumored to have been hoisted up by others.

However, this was indeed good news for them, the competitor who they thought would be a burden had actually become an essential part of their team. As a result, they, the so-called Fourth Stage Beast Masters, felt somewhat embarrassed.

Thinking of this, Wang Huai and the others exchanged glances and launched another attack with renewed courage.

At the same time, the saber-toothed tiger became aware of the threat Alpha posed. It was already energy-deficient due to not having eaten for a long time, now with the loss of so much blood, even a king-level life could not withstand such a huge loss. The tiger roared, and countless wind blades appeared above the heads of Bai Qi and others, attacking them.

As aking-level life form, the saber-toothed tiger was notweak in intellect. Naturally, it could see the relationship between pets and Beast Masters. As long as the Beast Masters were removed, these pets would naturally be affected as well.

“Damn, this beast has no martial ethics, it’s making a sneak attack!”

Seeing this, Bai Qi couldn’t help muttering under his breath. Immediately, the Husky began to control the Etherium Gold Defense, protecting Wang Huai and the Baili Brothers.

Hearing the dense metallic cutting sounds outside, Wang Huai, after a moment’s hesitation, got in touch with the Barrier Tree Man. Numerous vines sprang up from the ground around the saber-toothed tiger and wrapped around it tightly.

As soon as the tiger saw this, it ordered the wind blades to attack, but Li Xusheng and Tangmiao had already attacked again by this time. No matter how sharp Tangmiao’s mantis twin blades were or how strong Li Xusheng’s hammer blows that rivaled the force of fierce beasts, it prevented the tiger from responding seriously.

And when the serpents controlled by the Baili brothers also began to coil around, the saber-toothed tiger truly could not take care of everything, it was tightly wrapped by the tree vines of the Barrier Tree Man.

Seeing the saber-toothed tiger gradually being suppressed, a gleam of anticipation flashed in everyone’s eyes – they could already see the dawn of victory.

Whoosh, whoosh…

Just then, the wind blades that filled the sky disappeared suddenly. The saber- toothed tiger also stopped struggling. The vast training ground was left with only the whooshing sound of the wind blowing.

Afterwards, a whirlwind gradually formed around the saber-toothed tiger’s limbs, which had turned into a bloody mess. It grew larger and larger, eventually replacing the tiger’s limbs completely, pulling the tiger’s huge body free from the tree vines and flying towards the sky.

As for Alpha and others, they were directly blown away by the whirlwind, unable to resist at all.

“This guy, has he been hiding his true powers till now?”

Looking at the indifferent face of the saber-toothed tiger suspended in the air, gazing at them, Wang Huai and the others felt somewhat desperate.

Indeed, the ancient species that had a double level lead was incomparable to the previous terracotta warriors. With such a guardian deployed, the training ground didn’t seem to want them to pass at all.

The saber-toothed tiger, having fully unleashed its power, coldly looked down at the few insects beneath it that had caused it significant harm. Its vertical pupils became colder, but it did not easily land again, allowing itself to slowly get engulfed by the gale, disappearing within it.

Being hunters of the ancient times and favored by the wind, direct combat was never their preferred choice. It was simply too hungry, which led to such foolish choices.

From now on, these bugs were at its mercy.

Finally, when the saber-toothed tiger’s figure disappeared completely in the wind, Alpha and the other pets lost track of it. They could only vaguely sense its presence nearby.

“Schuck, Beta, can you find its tracks?”

Woof! Woof!

(It’s moving too fast, I can’t keep up!)

“Same here, the storm has masked its energy fluctuations, radar can’t find it.”

Bai Qi’s eyebrows furrowed, as he looked at Alpha who was still looking for the saber-toothed tiger’s traces, and said, “Gamma, you hitch onto Alpha’s body to protect it.”

Since the saber-toothed tiger chose to sneak attack, it would definitely prioritize the one that posed the greatest threat to it, so Alpha had the highest probability of being attacked.

Hopefully, this time Gamma can display its abnormal physical attributes and help Alpha withstand the attack.

Swoosh!

Just as Alpha and Gamma quickly converged, the figure of the saber-toothed tiger suddenly appeared next to Li Xusheng and Tangmiao, knocking them away in an instant.

Damn it, why isn’t this guy playing by the rules!?
