Celestial Beast Taming

Chapter 282: Chapter 174: Virtual Source Network

While absorbing toxins, the Diamond Poison Golem could also use them to rapidly form more Poisonous Diamonds on the surface of its body.

These Poisonous Diamonds could increase the Diamond Poison Golem’s Defense Power, allowing it to withstand external damage.

These abilities alone were enough to demonstrate the excellence of the Exclusive Trait, Guardian Poisonous Diamond.

But the abilities of the Guardian Poisonous Diamond Exclusive Trait went far beyond that.

What interested Zhong Yi the most was that the Defense Power of these Poisonous Diamonds was related to the energy intensity and level of the venom consumed.

The reason Shen Xuan had formed a Contract with the Diamond Poison Golem was because it could synergize with his Order Beast, the Ten Thousand Corrosive Poison Mother.

The strength of the Ten Thousand Corrosive Poison Mother’s toxins was self-evident.

Among Guardian Beasts of the same Tier, very few poison-type beasts could produce venom more toxic than that of the Ten Thousand Corrosive Poison Mother.

By absorbing the Ten Thousand Corrosive Poison Mother’s venom, the Poisonous Diamonds formed on the Diamond Poison Golem’s body could easily provide a Tier-Jumping defense.

More importantly, the Defense Ability of these Poisonous Diamonds was also related to the level of the absorbed venom.

The venom produced by Shen Xuan’s Ten Thousand Corrosive Poison Mother contained the Power of Rules.

In other words, if the Diamond Poison Golem absorbed the venom containing the Power of Rules from the Ten Thousand Corrosive Poison Mother, the resulting Poisonous Diamonds could also defend against attacks on the level of Rules.

With the Exclusive Trait Guardian Poisonous Diamond, the Diamond Poison Golem was practically equivalent to a Defense Type Order Beast in battle.

As Zhong Yi observed the Diamond Poison Golem, Shen Xuan was also observing his own Guardian Beast, whose Bloodline had just undergone a transformation.

Zhong Yi could tell that Shen Xuan was delighted by the Diamond Poison Golem’s Bloodline transformation.

Having studied at Starlight Academy for some time, Shen Xuan could now clearly discern a Guardian Beast’s quality and potential.

In truth, what truly delighted Shen Xuan wasn’t how strong the Diamond Poison Golem was, or how high its potential had become.

It was the fact that Zhong Yi had helped him strengthen this Guardian Beast.

Now that he had such a powerful Guardian Beast, he would be able to keep up with Zhong Yi.

This was the true reason for Shen Xuan’s overwhelming happiness and joy.

After witnessing Zhong Yi’s power in the Ice Cave Secret Realm, Shen Xuan’s greatest fear since being rescued was being left behind, unable to fight at Zhong Yi’s side any longer.

Zhong Yi looked at the Diamond Poison Golem with a slight sense of regret.

The dregs of the second Potion Zhong Yi had given Shen Xuan, amounting to just over ten milliliters of Flowing Soul Soil, remained at the bottom of the bottle.

It had absorbed over one hundred and eighty milliliters of Flowing Soul Soil and nearly three hundred kilograms of Purple Corundum, yet the Diamond Poison Golem was still one step away from Silver Quality.

’It couldn’t even reach Silver Quality while still at the Mortal Beast Tier.’ Zhong Yi sighed inwardly.

’The Flowing Soul Soil’s effect on improving a Guardian Beast’s Bloodline is still far inferior to the Soul Taming Seed.’

’No matter the Guardian Beast, as long as I use a Soul Taming Seed Contract, it can easily break through to Silver Quality while still at the Mortal Beast Tier.’

”Ah Xuan, Master Tao En, who returned with me today, is a Five-finger Peak Creator.”

”First thing tomorrow, you can ask him to take a look at this Guardian Beast for you and see if there are any other ways to train it.”

”From now on, if you need any Creator resources, don’t look for Brother Zhao. Go to Master Tao En for everything.”

After helping Shen Xuan cultivate the Diamond Poison Golem, Zhong Yi chatted with him for a long while before Shen Xuan reluctantly left the room.

Before going to bed, Zhong Yi took out the Source Material Celestial Shuttle that Star Night had given him on the journey home.

The palm-sized Source Material Celestial Shuttle looked like an ornate, hollowed-out jewelry box.

It was weightless, yet it had a cool, smooth, lustrous texture that was very pleasant to the touch.

The Source Material Celestial Shuttle required a drop of blood to be imprinted. Zhong Yi lightly pricked his finger and let a drop fall onto it.

The drop of crimson blood was instantly absorbed by the Source Material Celestial Shuttle.

It was like a drop of water on a sponge.

Even after the Source Material Celestial Shuttle absorbed his blood, Zhong Yi didn’t feel any connection to it.

Star Night had said the Source Material Celestial Shuttle would only react when he was asleep at night and his Soul Energy was at its peak.

To test the shuttle’s effects, Zhong Yi went to bed early, cuddling Lan Po as he drifted off to sleep.

For the past few days, Ice Glaze had been staying within Zhong Yi’s Soul Base.

The area within his Soul Base that Zhong Yi had expanded using the Ice Attribute Heart of the Secret Realm had become a perfect playground for Ice Glaze.

With some free time at the Celestial Destiny Society in Longya City, Zhong Yi had browsed some of the ancient tomes from the society’s private collection.

These tomes were completely open to Celestial Destiny Seekers, who could borrow and read them for free.

However, making a copy or purchasing them required spending a Celestial Destiny Seeker’s Potential Points.

The ancient tomes Zhong Yi had flipped through contained almost no text, only a series of magnificent illustrations.

These illustrations looked very similar to the images of Buddha and Guanyin from the Buddhist scriptures of Zhong Yi’s past life.

Zhong Yi hadn’t been very interested in these tomes, which contained only pictures.

But upon seeing the illustrations in those books, Ice Glaze had gone absolutely wild.

It had practically begged Zhong Yi to make copies of the books’ contents.

Zhong Yi had even spent 50 Potential Points to do so.

Zhong Yi never expected Ice Glaze to have an artistic streak. It was constantly using its Ice Jade Fox Sculpture Skill inside his Soul Base to create Ice Sculptures.

These Ice Sculptures had gradually morphed from the shape of a fox into the likenesses of the Guanyin and Buddha figures from those ancient tomes.
