Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Indefinitely

Chapter 623: Chapter 618: Dragon Soldier Insect Guard

“It’s not about seizing life, it’s about extracting the Power of Nature from within, similar to my own Jade Breath.”@@novelbin@@

Nicholas shook his head, his gaze towards the insect grass becoming increasingly fond.

While its shape was a bit different, the insect grass’s abilities were becoming more closely aligned to the Green Dragon, to Nicholas’ great joy.

“Similar to the Jade Breath, does it also give life?”

Bai Qi understood upon hearing this and gave new instructions to the insect grass. Understanding instantly, the temperature of the Bright Sun on its head suddenly changed, becoming warmer.

At the same time, the plants that had died due to the deprivation of their life force started to gradually revive under the irradiation of this green sunlight.

“Good, it simultaneously possesses the effects of the Great Sun Force Field and the Jade Breath, and can also forcibly pull one into Dreams. This AoE effect gets full marks!”

Bai Qi gave the insect grass a thumbs up. Ignoring the insect grass’ enormous size, simply the brightness was enough to intimidate.

“Since the Bright Sun is the effect of the awakening potion, then this Dragon Soldier Insect Guard ability should come from the Immortal Insect Exuviae?”

Bai Qi shifted his Spirit Power onto the Dragon Soldier Insect Guard, and relevant data immediately surfaced in his mind.

[Skill Name]: Dragon Soldier Insect Guard

[Skill Level]: Transcendent Level

[Skill Effect]: Parasitize the insect egg which fused the essence of Dragon and insects’ genes into the host’s body and the insect egg will transform the host into an Insect Dragon form.

Note: Quantity 0/9

…

“Transform host… into an Insect Dragon…”

Bai Qi patted his lips, glanced at the insect grass before him that had shed its old skin and become a new being and his expression suddenly became strange.

It seemed that he had already achieved the goals of the founding dean of the Cangzhe Academy?

“Epsilon, do you feel any different now compared to before?”

Bai Qi asked in a raised voice.

“Different? Apart from becoming stronger, it seems like I have birthed two sets of completely independent organ systems, does that count as different?”

After careful sensing, the insect grass answered.

“Two sets? Didn’t you originally have two sets?”

Bai Qi was a bit confused, while Schuck timely started the Scanning System, scanning the insect grass’ body structure.

“Two brains, two hearts, two… two of everything?”

Bai Qi was a bit dumbfounded after seeing this. The insect grass’ original systems were born from a soul-devouring insect and Dream Vine, one plant, one insect.

After evolving into a Great Sun Dragon Cicada, although they fused, the command center still retained two systems, hence it could still fight by day and sleep by night.

But now, the insect grass unexpectedly has two complete organ systems, including brains, like a Siamese twin, independent but interweaved.

“What is this? A Husky has three souls in one body, Epsilon is two bodies in one soul?”

Bai Qi scratched his head, staring at these insect grass that could be regarded as aliens, and a scene of the insect grass crazy internal wrangling surfaced in his mind.

Two organ systems, one responsible for daytime, one for nighttime, a 24-hour crazy internal roll, 007 bosses will be overjoyed!

“Enough about that, Insect Grass, how do you use this Dragon Soldier Insect Guard, that what… where are those insect eggs?”

Bai Qi shook his head, not thinking about those weird things anymore, and went back to the main topic.

“They should be here?”

Insect grass shook its own dragon tail but almost hit Nicholas, evidently not very used to being a dragon.

From being a small bug to being a Giant Dragon, although the insect grass was very happy, it still needed some time to adapt.

“Do you use the tail sting for injection? It indeed looks like an alien.”

Bai Qi shivered, luckily there was a limit to the Dragon Soldier Insect Guards; if not, he suspected that one day insect grass might become an alien queen.

By then, things might not develop in the direction he can control.

This, after the Undead Catastrophe, came the Insect Race invasion, it seemed like the direction of his pet beast’s evolution was somewhat dangerous.

Soon, insect grass gradually adapted to the changes in its own body while summoning its own parasites to its side.

“I think it should be done like this…”

After some thought, Insect Grass proceeded to insert the long, thin sting on its tail into the body of its first king parasite, the Cleaving Sky War Bear.

“It’s over?”

Bai Qi wondered as he saw Insect Grass withdrawing its sting.

This was an unexpected small commotion.

But before the Insect Grass could recover, a huge change occurred on the Cleaving Sky War Bear’s body.

Thick fur all fell off, replaced with chitinous shells and Dragon scales. Even a wide pair of insect wings grew out.

Following that, the Cleaving Sky War Bear’s head was blown apart by a huge one, astonishingly resembling an insect-dragon’s. The sight of its sharp jaws made everyone’s heart palpitate.

As for those strong limbs, they were replaced by sharp insect legs. Even a new pair extended out from its abdomen.

When the Cleaving Sky War Bear’s transformation completed, what appeared before Bai Qi and the others, was a completely new being, a combination of Insect and Dragon.

“Good God, are you sure this skill isn’t called Strong Breed, Armor?”

Bai Qi was stunned as he watched the Insect Guards in front of him. “This thing has nothing to do with the Cleaving Sky War Bear, does it?”

“There is still a bit of a connection.”

The insect grass shook its head and sent an order to the Cleaving Sky War Bear, which immediately turned into a metallic state on the surface.

“Can it use the hardening skill now?”

Bai Qi was taken aback by this. The parasite beasts of Insect Grass couldn’t use skills, so he specifically asked Insect Grass to choose a combat system pet beast to maximize their combat power.

But now, it seemed that this Insect Guard could use attribute skills?

“Yes, after I have transformed them into Insect Guards, their body structure starts to modify based on their original bodies. After this transformation, I can control them to use attribute skills.”

Insect Grass nodded and suddenly sighed with some regret, saying, “It’s a pity that these Insect Guards still have no souls. They are just unconditionally obeying my commands.”

“Don’t worry about the souls. Aren’t you researching virtual souls? Just inject them directly when the time comes.”

Bai Qi waved his hand and looked at the Insect Guards who stared blankly but guarded Insect Grass tightly. A small smirk appeared at the corner of his mouth.

“Now that they can use attribute skills, we can’t just randomly choose these remaining Insect Guards.”

“We have to afford them a full set incorporating gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, light, and dark!”

“Really, boss?”

Insect Grass was somewhat excited to hear this. Finally, his subordinates weren’t so stupid. At least compared to the Seven Swords Dragon Knights and the Twelve Zodiac Guardian Beasts, they could hold their heads up high.

“Of course.”

Bai Qi nodded his head, looking towards the other parasites of Insect Grass and saying, “Aside from these few with inherent attributes, you don’t need to parasitize the others. Release the controls.”

“As you command.”

Insect Grass nodded repeatedly and immediately dispelled the parasitic relationships with those pet beasts. Then, he began a new round of parasitism and transformation.

Crackle, pop…

(Everyone has subordinates now, Gamma wants some too…)

Watching the busy Insect Grass, Gamma suddenly felt envious.

“Gamma, you want subordinates too?”

Bai Qi couldn’t help but chuckle at this. He never expected his pets to be competitive in this way.

But upon reflection, it made sense. Alpha, Husky, and Insect Grass all had their followers now. It would be a lie to say that the other pets didn’t have any reaction to it.

Wheeze, wheeze!

(Then Jie Ta wants it too!)

Seeing Gamma speaking out, Jie Ta also put forward his request.

“Gamma, you have the Split skill, you don’t need subordinates. At most, pay attention later to see if you can upgrade your Split skill. Mid-Level Split is indeed a bit lacking.”

Bai Qi patted Gamma on the head, then turned to Jie Ta and said, “As for you, Jie Ta, there’s really no need. Otherwise, I worry that your subordinates would just be slapped to death by you.”

Upon hearing this, Twin Pets finally realized the truth and were no longer fixated on it.

“Delta, how come you have no objections? Don’t you want a follower?”

Having pacified Gamma and Jie Ta, Bai Qi turned to the still Delta and asked curiously.

Gurgle, gurgle.

(Delta isn’t strong enough yet, so Delta won’t get distracted.)

Delta shook his head. Although he also wanted to have some subordinates, both time and space capabilities consumed a lot of his time.

So, instead of focusing on cultivating subordinates, it would be better to concentrate on developing his own bloodline and acquiring stronger combat power first.

“Indeed, your power of time and space is much more effective.”

Bai Qi slightly nodded his approval and didn’t dwell on these matters further, turning his gaze back to Insect Grass.

After evolving, Insect Grass was as long as twenty meters and about ten meters tall when standing still. It wasn’t much smaller than Nicholas, firmly securing its position as the largest creature in the team.

“It seems like I’ve got another option for my mount.”

Bai Qi nodded in satisfaction. Originally, he was obsessed with having a mount, but gradually let go of the idea when he had the all-rounder Delta.

Unexpectedly, now he had two mounts, one Eastern Divine Dragon and one Western Giant Dragon. Such mounts were undoubtedly luxurious.

“In the future, I’ll ride on Epsilon when going out, and let Delta shrink down and hide in my body. Then my mother won’t worry about me going out.”

Having envisaged his future travel arrangements, Bai Qi was about to check on the other Insect Guards transformed by Insect Grass but saw Alpha suddenly return to the secret realm.

“Why did it take so long to come back? Did Guan Qing’s strength improve a lot?”

Bai Qi looked at the time and asked.

Clack, clack.

(The improvement is indeed significant, but there hasn’t been much enhancement in combat skills.)

“Then why did you only return now?”

Clack, clack.

(His Moonlight Attribute seems to have some compatibility with the Power of Death, so I fought a few more rounds with him.)

Alpha seemed slightly unsatisfied, and the long sword on its back trembled lightly.

“Can counteract the Power of Death? Yes, the sun and the moon are stars as well. It’s not surprising that they can neutralize the Power of Death.”

Bai Qi instantly understood the reason and became interested in this Moonlight attribute.

Why don’t I negotiate with Guan Qing and cut off a piece of bark from the Crescent Guard to experiment with? Maybe I can acquire the Moonlight attribute too.
