Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Indefinitely

Even though the Undead Department doesnt need to rest, this only applies to routine activities. Overuse of skills and depletion of energy value would still affect their condition.

Crack Crack.

(Master, can we go there again?)

Even though Alpha looked weary, his will to fight was still strong.

Be patient, Ill help you strengthen your power first.

Bai Qi handed the Soul Stones of an Ice Ghost Guard and an Ice Swordsman to Alpha, and said: First absorb these two Soul Stones and see if they can help upgrade your level.

Crack Crack.

Alpha nodded happily, crushing the Soul Stones forcefully, and two flames of different sizes appeared in the air. At Alphas command, they were directly absorbed.

After absorbing the two flames, the Fire of Alphas Soul suddenly surged. An icy blue fire gushed from Alphas skull, making Bai Qi feel slightly uneasy.

A Beast Control Edition of the Evil Spirit Knight?

He helps an old woman up every day; he shouldnt get burned, right?

Fortunately, Alphas condition lasted only a short while before it gradually returned to normal.

Crack Crack

(Master, Ive leveled up again!)

Upon confirmation from Alpha, Bai Qi nodded in satisfaction. He then took out the frosty metal ingot from his backpack.

This was the reward Alpha had received after clearing the fourth floor. Initially, Bai Qi was annoyed at the reward not being ten Soul Stones, but he also saw information about this metal ingot on the Beast Master Associations website and instantly found it very attractive.

[Name]: Cold Spirit Iron

[Description]: A special metal generated upon the death of high-grade specter beasts in extremely cold places; through some special method, it can impart or strengthen ice attributes to Undead Department pets.

[Price]: 5 million Federal Coins

Just this tiny metal ingot was worth 5 million Federal Coins the Lamentation Towers rewards were a bit too generous.

If it had been earlier, Bai Qi would definitely have sold the metal without hesitation. But now, of course, like the Soul Stones, it was given to Alpha.

As to the special method mentioned in the description, it didnt specify. But Bai Qi didnt care; the Evolution Egg could absorb even ordinary metals, so naturally, it could absorb the Cold Spirit Iron.

Bai Qi had Alpha hold the Cold Spirit Iron. After thinking for a while, he ran downstairs and moved all the nutrient solution to the bedroom, placing it where he could easily reach it. He opened a bottle of nutrient solution and stuck it to his left hand, then placed his right hand on Alphas head.

I hope my instinct is correct, otherwise we might really have to wait a month before taking the challenge.

Bai Qi silently prayed, then activated the Evolution Egg.

As usual, a liquid-like black light flowed from Bai Qis palm, slowly covering Alpha.

But this time, when only one-third of the shell was formed, Bai Qi felt as if his body had been hollowed out. The strong weak feeling almost made him faint instantly.

Alpha really evolved again!

Luckily, Bai Qi was prepared. He drained his nutrient solution bottle with his left hand, but it barely restored his strength while his energy was rapidly depleting.

The energy from the nutrient solution wasnt enough. He would go and purchase new supplements tomorrow!

Bai Qi kept going, pouring bottles of nutrient solution down his throat as though drinking water. After about a dozen bottles, the Black Iron Egg finally took shape with difficulty.

Hu! Hu! Hu!

This Golden Finger was so unfriendly, why couldnt it come up with something simpler?

Bai Qi collapsed heavily onto the bed, panting. The extreme spiritual fatigue couldnt be fully compensated by the nutrient solution, and he soon fell into a deep sleep.

Ah-choo!

After an unknown period, Bai Qi was awakened by a chill, and he sneezed involuntarily.

Why is it so cold here, did the cooling system break? Or did I catch a cold?

As Bai Qi rubbed his nose in confusion, he quickly found the source of the unusual chill.

A towering skeleton encased in blue ice armor.

[Name]: Ice Shadow Swordsman (Alpha)

[Race]: Ice Clan, Undead Department

[Growth Level]: First Stage Level One

[Bloodline Level]: High-grade Elite

[Racial Skills]: Bone-breaking Reformation (Mastery), Steel Skeleton (Mastery), Ice Sword Slash (Beginner), Shadow Lotus Skill (Proficient), Ice Armor (Beginner)

[Condition]: Evolvable

Alpha had successfully evolved!

Looking excitedly at Alpha, who was radiating cold currents, Bai Qi felt the side effects of the Evolution Egg were so insignificant.

Even though this might be thanks to the Cold Spirit Iron, evolving twice in a month would be too much for even the Beast Master Association, right?

A flower-like grin spread across Bai Qis face, as he began checking out Alphas newly acquired skills.

[Name]: Ice Armor

[Level]: Intermediate

[Introduction]: It composes a protective suit out of the Frozen Power, causing ice damage to anyone that comes in contact with it.

[Name]: Ice Sword Slash

[Level]: Intermediate

[Introduction]: It emits an icy blade to strike at enemies, causing freezing effects.

Two ice attribute skills!

And both with controlling effects!

Seeing the special effects of these two skills, Bai Qis face was contorted in laughter.

Although he hadnt acquired any AoE skills like Ice Ghost Guards Frozen Breath, having one offensive and one defensive skill in his repertoire was quite good.

And looking at Alphas skeletal frame, concealed beneath the ice armor, it was clear that he had gained considerable strength.

Ice Shadow Swordsman

So it means moving from being an assassin to a swordsman, huh?

Alpha, lets test out your skills, said Bai Qi, looking at Alphas full-body ice armor. Ercan you remove your ice armor?

Clink, clink.

(I can.)

Alpha nodded, the Ice Armor fading into a puff of cold air, instantly turning the bone-chilling cold into an invigorating coolness.

Wow, it seems I wont have to use air conditioning in the future, thatll save me some money.

Bai Qi satisfyingly patted Alphas shoulder before quickly darting out into the yard.

Woof?

Upon seeing Bai Qis appearance, the Husky who was still occupied with its unfinished work immediately hopped off the Steel Training Dummy, wearing an innocent face when looking at Bai Qi.

(Human, let me explain myself.)

Bai Qi glanced at the heavily dismantled Steel Training Dummy, a teasing look flashed in his eyes as he ordered Alpha: Alpha, use Ice Sword Slash!

Alpha nodded slightly. The bones of his palm rotated, creating a white bone hilt.

At the same time, a stream of Frozen Power flowed from Alphas arm to the bone hilt, quickly condensing into a wide sword blade.

After the ice sword was formed, Alpha slashed heavily in the direction of the Steel Training Dummy, and countless ice flowers rapidly spread across the ground.

Holy moly, isnt Ice Sword Slash supposed to be a single-target attack?!
