Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Indefinitely

Chapter 501: Chapter 496: The Mysterious Elemental World

“No longer resurrecting?”

Bai Qi was startled at the words, while Shadow of the Ice Ring nodded affirmatively, saying, “That’s right, haven’t you noticed that the creatures in the Elemental World are particularly few?”

“It does seem so…”

Bai Qi realized this as he flew on his journey, noticing they indeed hadn’t seen many Water Element creatures, and the scenario in the Fire Element World seemed similar.

Thinking about it that way, was he relentlessly pursued by a Demi-God Flame Demon after killing a Fire Tyrant because of this?

But even though he sort of understood now, Bai Qi didn’t feel much guilt.

He wasn’t any saint. It was survival of the fittest. The weak were sinners, why should he have to define everything as just good and evil?

“We haven’t been able to find the reason, so we don’t want the current situation to change. If you aren’t here for anything in particular, please leave. We don’t want to create unnecessary sacrifices.”

The stance of Shadow of the Ice Ring was rather cordial as he said, “All you need to do is leave the way you came, no one will stop you.”

Bai Qi fell silent. Shadow of the Ice Ring’s words had a ring of truth to them because according to the Federation’s data, the population of Elemental System pets was indeed declining.

In other words, the Water Element World was indeed the safest place for them.

However, leaving right now felt like a letdown.

“If I can help solve this problem, can I continue to solidify the Element Gate?”

Just then, Luo Xiang suddenly stepped forward.

“Solve the problem?”

Shadow of the Ice Ring sighed helplessly, saying, “Humans, it’s not that I doubt your abilities, but how could you solve a problem that even our Demi-God couldn’t?”

“That may not necessarily be true.”

Luo Xiang smiled broadly, saying, “Every expert has their specialty, and I think I’ve located the source of the problem.”

As he spoke, Luo Xiang pointed at the Element Gate below.

“The Element Gate?”

Shadow of the Ice Ring was stunned and was about to ask something when a deep voice suddenly came from below the water.

“Human, speak.”

Then, to Bai Qi’s surprise, a massive Water Element emerged from the water. Bai Qi estimated that it was no smaller than the Demi-God Flame Demon he had encountered.

Could this be the Water Element Demi-God that Shadow of the Ice Ring spoke of?

“Bai Qi, was it one of these beings you encountered earlier?”

Feeling a presence no weaker than Aleta’s from the creature, Nicholas, who had initially wanted to show off, involuntarily retracted a bit.

“Yes, it was a Demi-God Flame Demon.”

“Alright, I might not be able to protect you.”

Nicholas narrowed his eyes, saying, “But don’t worry, Bai Qi. If anything does go wrong, I’ll throw you into the Jade Dream. You should survive.”

“Don’t worry, it seems like there won’t be any issues for now.”

Looking over at Luo Xiang, Bai Qi felt a sense of unparalleled security.

No wonder they said there was a high probability that the future Association President’s position would fall to Luo Xiang. It made sense.

Seeing the Demi-God Water Spirit emerge, Luo Xiang showed no signs of tension, but instead became more composed.

“It’s quite a coincidence, if it weren’t for my friend here who recently visited the Fire Element World, I probably wouldn’t have thought of this.”

Once again pointing at the Element Gate, Luo Xiang said, “If the records are correct, the Four Great Elemental Realms should be independent of each other, right?”

“The Great Elemental Spirits were all together when they established the Elemental World, but after the Elemental Spirits disappeared, the Elemental World became four separate worlds. And the only passage for us to connect with the outside world is the Element Gate.”

The Demi-God Water Spirit nodded, saying, “Over the years, with the decrease of Element Gates, the Four Great Elemental Realms have essentially lost contact with the outside world.”

“The problem lies with the Element Gate.”

Luo Xiang smiled. Bai Qi immediately understood what he meant, saying, “So Instructor Luo, what you’re saying is that the Element Gate is connected to both the Fire Element World and the Water Element World at the same time, leading to the current situation?”

“That’s my understanding.”

Luo Xiang nodded, saying, “If I’m not wrong, the Element Gates of the two worlds accidentally fused together, which reconnected the two worlds that were meant to be separate.”

“Water and fire are incompatible. The contact between two worlds with completely opposing elements is why neither of you can give birth to new people.”

The Water Spirit was silent for a moment, and then said, “Do you have evidence?”

“The evidence is right here.”

Luo Xiang took Snow Doll from Bai Qi’s hands, saying, “Given your strength, you should be able to see what’s special about this little one, right?”

The Water Spirit blinked at the words, and then looked deeply at Snow Doll. His eyes showed a hint of surprise.

“He is…”

“Correct, this little one was born when the two worlds merged, then gestated for many years before birth. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be almost as powerful as you now.”

Luo Xiang nodded, while Bai Qi was stunned by the origins of Snow Doll.

His own Light Armor Sword Rider seemed less impressive in comparison.

“Even if that’s the case, it doesn’t change our current situation.”

The Water Spirit looked at Luo Xiang, saying, “I’ve noticed this Element Gate, but I’ve never found any way to dismantle it.”

“So as I was saying, there are specialties in magic~”

Luo Xiang chuckled, saying, “If you guys don’t mind, I’d like to give it a shot. Perhaps, I could help you solve the problem of no new members being born.”

“Of course, this entails certain risks, so if you’re unwilling, we can just leave peacefully now.”

Damn, first talking about the benefits and then pretending to be helpless. Instructor Xiang really knows how to swindle people.

No, he’s fooling the elements.

Sure enough, after hearing Luo Xiang’s words, the Water Spirit fell silent, glancing at the sparse clan members around it. It took a long time before it opened its mouth.

“I’ll let you try, and I’ll offer as much help as I can. If you can do it, you’ll become friends of the Water Element World.”

“Don’t worry, I won’t blame you if you fail. After all, if things keep going like this, the Water Element World won’t escape extinction.”

Hearing the Water Spirit’s promise, Luo Xiang finally showed a satisfied smile on his face, patting Bai Qi, and said, “Don’t stand there dazed. Let’s get to work.”

“Uh, okay.”

Bai Qi nodded and then followed Luo Xiang to the front of the Element Gate.

Multiple runes were already drawn on the Element Gate, presumably the ones Luo Xiang used to fixate the coordinates of the Element Gate.

But as Luo Xiang approached the Element Gate, he erased them all without hesitation, and then began sketching a new Rune Structure.

“This is the Space Transmission Rune I designed, you go to the other side and draw along with me.”

Luo Xiang threw a book to Bai Qi and gave the order. Bai Qi promptly flipped through it briefly and then began sketching.

Initially, Bai Qi was a bit slow, occasionally asking Luo Xiang some questions.

But gradually, Bai Qi paced up and even surpassed Luo Xiang, the original designer.

“This kid, his talent in Runes is really strong.”

Seeing this, Luo Xiang nodded in approval. The two of them worked in tandem and completed the Array in no time.

Later, Luo Xiang made few alterations to the Array on both sides. Of course, Bai Qi wouldn’t miss such a good learning opportunity. He followed along earnestly and learned.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

“Water Attribute Runes and Fire Attribute Runes, Instructor Luo, are you planning to use the opposing energies of the two to separate this Element Gate?”

“Yes, exactly.”

Luo Xiang nodded, looking at the Water Spirit and said, “Later, we will input energy into the Fire side. Could you cooperate with us and input an equal amount of energy? Would that be okay?”

“It would be easy.”

The Water Spirit nodded, then dispersed the curious Water Elements around it, asking, “When do we start?”

“Wait a bit.”

Luo Xiang summoned the Immeasurable Balance and the Sun Chasing Demon Wolf. Bai Qi understood immediately and summoned Alpha and Fungi.

Of course, to tear apart the Element Gate, considerable energy was needed. So, all their Pets with Fire Element skills were summoned.

“Follow the Runes I set and release the Fire Attribute energy into these nodes. Remember, there’s no need to rush.”

Luo Xiang looked at Bai Qi earnestly and started releasing energy. On the other side, the Water Spirit immediately released an equivalent amount of Water Attribute energy.

All of a sudden, the Runes were activated. Bai Qi then gave the instructions to his Pets. Alpha and Fungi understood instantly and began to release their own energy.

The addition of the Twin Pets made the Array brighter and the Water Spirit increased its energy on the other side.

Still, the Element Gate showed no response.

“We still lack energy.”

Luo Xiang sighed resignedly, “Water Spirit Lord, could you slowly increase your power, even if you exceed us? I’ll figure out a way to reconcile it.”

“Okay.”

Water Spirit nodded slightly and slightly increased its strength. The Immeasurable Balance immediately floated to the top of the Element Gate, adjusting the energies on both sides.

This time, the Element Gate finally changed. A crack appeared in the middle of what previously was a seamless Element Gate.

“It really is working!”

Seeing the Element Gate really becoming two like Luo Xiang described, they were indeed fused together.

Grrr!

However, just at that moment, a furious roar came from Bai Qi’s side of the Element Gate. The powerful flame energy directly disrupted the energy input by the Three Pets. Even the Three Pets were blasted away.

Immediately afterwards, before Bai Qi and the others could react, a flaming arm stretched out from the Element Gate and reached for Bai Qi.

“Flame Demon!”

Seeing this, the Water Spirit instantly started to ripple. Countless water pillars rushed out, trying to stop the Flame Demon.

But the Flame Demon was noticeably closer to Bai Qi and reached him first.

“Don’t you dare harm my friend!”

Hoo, hoo!

(Don’t you dare harm my master!)

Nicholas, who was already standing by Bai Qi’s side, instantly activated the Jade Domain to block, but he seemed like a child before the Flame Demon. Bai Qi and Snow Doll, along with him, were all grabbed in one go.

“I swear, this trans-world chase, does this Flame Demon need to be so vengeful!”
