Beast Taming Patrol

Chapter 699: Chapter 242 Realization! Extreme Cold Rule! (July Building Additional Chapters 2-in-1, Seeking Monthly Tickets!)_5

“Hopefully so,” Lin Su nodded heavily, his eyes flickering with added anticipation.

“Meow!” (Let’s set off!)

Gazing at the sky ladder far above, excitement sparkled in Qiuqiu’s eyes.

As a beast of the ice attribute, it sensed a kinship in the atmosphere of that particular section of the sky ladder.

“Caw!” (I’ll cheer for you from here!)

Ghost Ghost emerged from Lin Su’s shadow, waving its paws as it spoke.

The low temperature here was bearable for it, but any further, and as the temperature continued to drop, Ghost Ghost would start to feel discomfort.

After all, it was not an ice-type beast.

Feeling Qiuqiu’s anxious mood, Lin Su no longer delayed; he held Qiuqiu in his arms, and the pale blue Cooperation Light swiftly appeared.

The next moment, Lin Su, in synergy with Qiuqiu, turned into a white shadow and flew toward the sky ladder.

“Bang!”

A muffled sound echoed from the sky.

In the stunned gaze of Lu Ziye, Lin Su crashed directly into an invisible barrier in mid-air, bouncing back just before setting foot on the sky ladder.

Returning to Lu Ziye’s side, Lin Su turned his head to look at Lu Ziye.

The two men looked at each other wordlessly.

“This doesn’t make sense!” After a moment’s silence, Lu Ziye anxiously scratched his head, “Why can’t we ascend this sky ladder? There was nothing about this in the information I got!”

“Wait a moment, Brother Lin, I’ll give it a try,” Lu Ziye said, shaking his head and without another word turned his elemental power into wings and soared toward the distant sky ladder.

“Bang!”

Another thud, and Lu Ziye, with an expression of questioning his life choices, was also bounced back.

The scene once again turned awkward.

“Which sect left this rule-bound place…?” After pondering for a moment, Lin Su suddenly asked.

“It seems it was left by an immortal-class existence from the Immortal Phoenix Sect,” Lu Ziye answered reflexively.

“Left by the Immortal Phoenix Sect…” Lin Su muttered to himself, his eyes suddenly lighting up.

He quickly disengaged the Guardian Beast Co-operation mode and looked towards Qiuqiu, who had reappeared beside him, “Qiuqiu, you try.”

“Could it be…” Lu Ziye seemed to understand something, his expression turning peculiar.

“Give it a try,” Lin Su nodded slightly, “This sky ladder might have some restriction that only allows beasts to climb.”

The two of them spoke in low voices while anxiously watching Qiuqiu fly toward the sky ladder.

Unlike before, Qiuqiu easily bypassed the invisible barrier that had blocked them, stepping effortlessly onto the first step of the sky ladder.

It turned out just as Lin Su had anticipated.

“So it really is like that,” Lu Ziye scratched his head, “Alright, since there’s no problem now, I’ll go collect the water from the cold pond.”

After he spoke, he quickly headed down to the cold pond.

With the help of this pond of cold water, Lu Ziye could easily refine his spirit weapon to the peak of low-grade spirit weapons. When he advanced to a medium-grade Weapon Casting Master, he would only need a slight recasting to elevate it to the level of a medium-grade spirit weapon.

Unlike his previous attempt to step onto the sky ladder, Lu Ziye encountered no obstacles this time.

Clearly, if martial artists came here, the only opportunity they could gain from the Extreme Cold Sky Ladder would be the cold pond water, but Beast Tamers could receive more.

Lin Su’s gaze slowly shifted from Lu Ziye and settled on Qiuqiu, who was now standing on the first step of the ladder, his expression somewhat grave.

Indeed, Qiuqiu had stepped onto the first step, but the situation was not as optimistic as he had imagined.

At this moment, Qiuqiu’s consciousness was still active, able to communicate with Lin Su via Telepathy, but its body had been frozen the moment it stepped on the ladder.

“So cold, so cold…”

The thoughts from Qiuqiu traveled to Lin Su’s mind through Telepathy.

The content made Lin Su’s expression grow even more serious.

The ice-affiliated Qiuqiu was directly frozen and felt cold.

This Extreme Cold Sky Ladder was truly formidable.

And what was more terrifying was that this was only the first step.

What the remaining six steps would be like was completely unknown.

“Qiuqiu, listen to me,” Lin Su quickly communicated with it via Telepathy while Qiuqiu was still in a relatively good condition, “The ice-type power that makes you feel cold must contain the Rule Power of ice. Only a higher level of Extreme Cold could make you feel this cold.”

“This is a test for you, but also a great opportunity.”

“Remember the methods we saw on Blue Star for comprehending the Rule Power?”

“One of them is called immersion, where you personally experience the Rule Power to try to assimilate, accept, and comprehend it.”

“Now is a great opportunity to try this method, so you need to hold on!” Lin Su clenched his fists, continually cheering Qiuqiu on in his mind, “The longer you hold on, the deeper your comprehension of the Rule Power will be.”

“Understood!”

Qiuqiu quickly responded through Telepathy.

Although still frozen and unable to move, stationed on the ladder, its eyes once again flickered with spirit.

It no longer complained about the surrounding cold but calmed down, using its body and will to resist while trying to perceive the essence of the Extreme Cold that could freeze it.

This might be difficult for other ice-type beasts.

But in addition to being an ice-type, Qiuqiu also belonged to the Spirit type.

Thus, it had a sharper perception than a normal ice-type beast.
