Beast Taming: I'm Really Not a Cultivation Master

Chapter 237: Chapter 213: A Crisis Affecting the Entire Ancestral Star

When Li Qian saw the Gray Bean Dove, Xiaohui, land, it didn’t descend slowly. Instead, it abruptly appeared in mid-air just three or four meters from the windowsill. He knew it wanted him to see its progress, and a wave of gratification washed over him.

Previously, Li Qian had comforted it, telling it not to be anxious, to take things one step at a time, and that it would master the skill sooner or later. His words had been partly for reassurance; after all, whether Xiaohui possessed a spatial Talent was purely a gamble, a fifty-fifty chance.

Now, seeing it had truly mastered the skill Instant Movement, he was both delighted and a little surprised. ’To think the Gray Bean Dove I chose actually possesses a spatial Talent.’

This meant that it could now reliably evolve into an Extreme Fierce Sky Escape Eagle.

The thought that he would soon possess a Pet Beast with Emperor Level Potential made Li Qian more than a little excited.

The only downside was that his Spiritual Power was still some distance from reaching Commander Level, so he couldn’t form a contract with Xiaohui yet.

But it wasn’t a major problem. Li Qian believed that given Xiaohui’s personality and the impression he had made on it, it wouldn’t leave him even after it evolved.

Worst-case scenario, even if it did leave him after evolving, the loss wouldn’t be great. Now that he had mastered the evolution method from Gray Bean Dove to Extreme Fierce Sky Escape Eagle, he would never be short of them.

To confirm the news, Li Qian immediately activated his Beast Taming Talent, Eye of True Sight, and took a look.

[Name: Extreme Fierce Storm Eagle (Xiaohui)]

[Attribute: Wind]

[Level: Tier Nine Elite]

[Potential: Tier One Dominator]

[Skills: Wind Blade (Perfection), Gale Feather Blade (Mastery), Tornado (Mastery), Wind Disc (Skilled), Gale Slash (Skilled), Wind Speed (Skilled), Wind’s Breath (Beginner), Instant Movement (Beginner)]

The information was just as he’d hoped. The Gray Bean Dove, Xiaohui, had indeed mastered the skill Instant Movement.

Looking up at Xiaohui in mid-air, gratified, Li Qian offered another word of encouragement.

”Excellent. I saw your progress and the effort you put in. Tonight, get a good rest. Tomorrow, I’ll let you experience a true transformation and ascension.”

”CHIRP CHIRP!”

The moment Li Qian finished speaking, Xiaohui immediately understood. It let out two high-pitched cries, then flew straight for the heavens.

”CHIRP! CHIRP! CHIRP...”

Just as Xiaohui soared high into the sky, from another direction within the Cultivation Base, three more high-pitched cries rang out.

Then, as Li Qian watched with a slightly stunned expression, three avian figures shot up into the sky from the direction of the cries.

’They actually evolved three Extreme Fierce Storm Eagles this quickly.’

Li Qian murmured to himself upon seeing the three Extreme Fierce Storm Eagles.

’As expected of the scions of a great family. With their resources, it’s incredibly simple to quickly cultivate a Pet Beast once you know its evolution method.’

With these three Extreme Fierce Storm Eagles, and having mastered the evolution method from Gray Bean Dove to Extreme Fierce Storm Eagle, the Sky Realm Cultivation Base now had its cornerstone.

From now on, as long as the market value of the Extreme Fierce Storm Eagle didn’t collapse and they didn’t become a dime a dozen, the Sky Realm Cultivation Base could continuously reap profits.

He smiled, ignoring Xiaohui as it went to mingle with the other three Extreme Fierce Storm Eagles. He pushed open the door, looked at the setting sun on the horizon, and felt his mood lift.

Hearing footsteps nearby, he turned his head to look. Sure enough, the person appearing at the turn of the stairs was the owner of this Cultivation Base—Shi Gui Fang.

”You guys sure move fast,” Li Qian said, his tone full of meaning.

Shi Gui Fang immediately understood him. ”It’s all thanks to your help that the base has achieved what it has today, evolving the Extreme Fierce Storm Eagles.”

The petite woman’s attitude was excellent, and her words were well-chosen. At least, Li Qian found them very pleasant to hear.

”By the way, Young Boss, you came all this way yourself. I doubt it was just to invite me to dinner, was it?” Li Qian asked with a smile.

”There is something, and it’s rather important. Let’s talk as we walk.” After speaking, Shi Gui Fang led the way. A curious Li Qian followed, falling into step beside her.

The petite woman didn’t waste time and got straight to business. ”I came to see you about three things. The first, and most important, is that for the near future, unless you have an absolutely essential reason, I suggest you don’t go out. Especially not to remote places or the outer sea!”

Shi Gui Fang spoke the last two words, ”outer sea,” with extra emphasis. Li Qian had been in a fog, but after hearing those words, a look of sudden understanding appeared on his face.

He looked at Shi Gui Fang and spoke tentatively.

”Is this related to the four-beast city attack from a while ago? Are the repercussions of that incident still ongoing?”

Shi Gui Fang shook her head, telling him everything she knew. ”Perhaps my strength is insufficient, so the elders of my clan didn’t tell me everything.”

”What I know now is that this matter is far from as simple as it appears on the surface. It could very well change the existing structure of the Ancestral Star, or even our way of life.”

Hearing this, Li Qian’s brow furrowed deeply.

”Is there a problem within the Dimension Planes?”

Hearing Li Qian’s speculation, Shi Gui Fang shook her head again. ”It’s unclear. I don’t know. But from the attitude of my clan elders, I can tell this matter is far from simple.”

”Although I’m inclined to believe that speculation myself, I don’t want to say anything that might mislead you before I get definite information.”

Hearing this, Li Qian fell into deep thought. After a moment, he asked, ”So, is this city attack incident limited to Zhonghai City, or will it affect the entire Ancestral Star?”

A moment ago, Shi Gui Fang had mentioned it could ”change the existing structure of the Ancestral Star,” and a terrible premonition had taken root in his heart.

Since humanity entered the Beast Taming Civilization, it wasn’t as if they hadn’t experienced crises. In fact, there had been quite a number of them, big and small.

However, humanity had overcome all of them. These crises had forged many powerful individuals, and many great Beast Masters had risen because of them.

But Li Qian, who had read many history books, knew full well that while the times make the hero, they are often built upon the countless bones of ordinary Beast Masters.

”I suggest you prepare yourself for the worst.”

Shi Gui Fang didn’t answer the question directly, but her words were as good as an answer.
