Beast Taming: I'm Really Not a Cultivation Master

Chapter 451: Chapter 419: Six-tailed Cat

Li Qian was stunned, completely baffled by what had just happened. Then he saw the small, marten-like beast perched on Teacher Liang’s shoulder and instantly understood.

He remained calm and let himself be carried through the air. With a WHOOSH, he landed inside a temple nearby.

Teacher Liang’s figure followed close behind. ”I’ve already set up the Array for you,” she said. ”You can begin the evolution now.”

With that, she waved her hand, sealing the temple’s main entrance and creating a hidden space for Li Qian.

Watching Teacher Liang send him into the temple while she remained outside, a wave of gratitude washed over Li Qian.

She was giving him the utmost respect, protecting his privacy and his secrets.

Pulling his attention back, he focused his gaze on the Array in the center of the temple.

The Array was already set up and activated, and it was currently emitting a faint, fluorescent glow.

Seeing this, Li Qian didn’t hesitate for a moment and immediately took out a Beast Taming Ball.

This Beast Taming Ball contained a Five-tailed Cat that had only recently evolved.

The Five-tailed Cat was released, and it let out a few soft meows.

Its eyes darted around, curiously observing the glowing Array.

Li Qian took out another Beast Taming Ball.

The Beast Taming Ball opened, and this time, a Starlight Fish leaped out.

The Starlight Fish’s entire body emitted a glow like starlight, making it look extraordinary.

In the dark of night, its movements would look like a flicker of starlight leaping from the water’s surface.

This Starlight Fish was a total weakling in a fight. While its combat power was a little better than the ”Four Useless Ones,” it wasn’t much better.

However, because it was quite rare, its overall value was relatively high.

Li Qian had spent a full 800,000 Federation Coins to purchase this Starlight Fish.

It wasn’t just the Starlight Fish. In fact, Li Qian had stockpiled evolution resources for both ”Task One” and ”Task Two” that he had established.

This was precisely to be prepared for special situations like this that required a sudden evolution.

With all preparations complete, Li Qian wasted no more time and directly commanded the Five-tailed Cat to pounce on and attack the Starlight Fish.

As a total weakling, how could the Starlight Fish possibly be a match for the Five-tailed Cat, whose Potential had reached the Dominator Level?

A moment later, it had become the cat’s meal.

Seeing the Five-tailed Cat devour the Starlight Fish, Li Qian gave his next command, ”Jump into this Array.”

This Five-tailed Cat had originally been just a Four-tailed Cat, and it was Li Qian who had helped it evolve.

Therefore, even without a contract, it still chose to meticulously carry out Li Qian’s commands.

The Five-tailed Cat leaped into the Array.

Li Qian continued without pause, ”Use the Leaping Dance Skill.”

The Five-tailed Cat didn’t hesitate. Upon receiving the command, it immediately began to use its Master Level Leaping Dance Skill.

Its entire body transformed into a streak of light, darting back and forth within the Array.

”Don’t stop without my command,” Li Qian added.

The Five-tailed Cat continued to leap and dart tirelessly inside the Array, its form like a bolt of lightning.

As it leaped, a faint Light of Evolution began to emerge from its body.

As it continued to leap, the Light of Evolution grew more and more intense.

Gradually, it formed a dazzling cluster of light within the temple.

Li Qian watched with a calm expression, his gaze fixed intently on the ball of light.

Next up was a feat of endurance. Before the evolution was complete, certain things could not be stopped.

Only by continuously using the Leaping Dance Skill could the Energy from the devoured Starlight Fish be maximally digested, absorbed, and utilized.

About five minutes later, just as Li Qian sensed the Five-tailed Cat was growing fatigued, the light suddenly flared even more intensely.

Finally, it formed a pillar of light that shot toward the sky.

However, because the skill Teacher Liang had used isolated the area from the outside world, the entire Light of Evolution was confined, trapped within the temple.

From the outside, nothing looked out of the ordinary.

Sensing the constantly transforming aura of Extraordinary Energy within the pillar of light, Li Qian couldn’t help but mutter to himself, ”It’s finally done.”

Reaching this stage meant the evolution was as good as complete.

The rest was just a matter of the Energy overflowing and the process reaching its natural conclusion.

About three minutes later, the light slowly dissipated. A cat-like Pet Beast appeared before Li Qian. It wasn’t much larger than an ordinary Five-tailed Cat, its fur was entirely white, and it was covered in swirling purple patterns.

The cat’s most striking feature was the six long tails trailing behind it.

The Six-tailed Cat had finally completed its evolution.

Li Qian watched as it fanned out all its tails at once. The sight was just like a peacock spreading its feathers—truly magnificent.

A knowing smile appeared on Li Qian’s face as he watched.

Without hesitation, he immediately used his Eye of True Sight to check the Six-tailed Cat’s information.

[Name: Six-tailed Cat]

[attribute: Spirit]

[Level: Tier Two Commander]

[Potential: High-level Dominator]

[Skills: Claw Strike (Perfection), Iron Tail (Skilled), Leaping Dance (Mastery), Telekinesis (Perfection), Mental Shock (Mastery), Spirit Shield (Skilled), Spiritual Thorn (Beginner), Spirit Storm (Beginner), Spiritual Replication (Beginner), Hypnosis (Beginner)...]

After reading the Six-tailed Cat’s information, Li Qian nodded in satisfaction. At least the favor he owed Teacher Liang for her help hadn’t been wasted.

After completing the evolution, Li Qian glanced at the Spirit Awakening Array on the ground.

The Array’s light was still flickering, which suggested that Teacher Liang must have used many high-quality Energy Stones when setting it up.

Instead of immediately recalling the Six-tailed Cat to its Beast Taming Ball, Li Qian had it follow him as he walked with firm steps toward the temple entrance.

Just as Li Qian’s figure appeared before the temple entrance, the membrane of light covering the door vanished in an instant.

It slowly parted to the sides, disappearing without a trace.

Teacher Liang watched the duo of man and beast walk calmly out of the temple, a flicker of astonishment flashing across her face before disappearing.

She truly hadn’t expected Li Qian to actually be able to complete the evolution so smoothly.

She knew that throughout the entire Dongxia Federation, there were quite a few large corporations and institutions researching the Nine-tailed Cat.

But to this day, Teacher Liang had never heard of anyone successfully evolving a Nine-tailed Cat.

They hadn’t even managed to produce a Six-tailed Cat.

And yet, now she was seeing one right before her eyes.

She couldn’t help but feel a little stirred.

”Let’s go, time to head back. It’s early and I haven’t even had breakfast. If they see me running around all over the place, they’ll probably start worrying again,” Teacher Liang joked, then once again pointed a finger at Li Qian.

Li Qian felt a sense of numb resignation.

The next moment, just as he expected, his entire body was lifted into the air.

In the blink of an eye, he was suddenly back at the edge of the campsite.

As Li Qian experienced the strange ability Teacher Liang had used, he couldn’t help but think to himself, ’It would be great if I had a small, marten-like Pet Beast like that too!’
