Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Indefinitely-Chapter 673 - 668: Crisis in the Sea Territory
Chapter 673: Chapter 668: Crisis in the Sea Territory
The sky was gradually lighting up, dawn breaking through the leaden clouds and spilling onto the sea surface.
Dozens of giant sea beasts moved majestically through the vast sea. All other sea beasts hurriedly made way where they passed, fearing to be accidentally gobbled up as food.
But these giant sea beasts seemed to be lost. After traveling a certain distance, they suddenly stopped, poked their heads out of the water and looked around in confusion.
“Where’s Tired Thought Bay? Why can’t I see it?”
The Nether Sea Thunder Flood Dragon looked questioningly at the distantly empty sea sponge, puzzled.
“Judging from the location, it should be around here.”
...
Ming Dian also poked his head out of the water, seemed to think of something and said, “Father, do you think the guys from the West Sea got here before us and took them away?”
“Impossible, Sir Nicholas is a Demi-God Giant Dragon. To take them away, at least two Demi-Gods would have to be dispatched.”
The Nether Sea Thunder Flood Dragon shook his head and said, “Besides, with Bai Qi’s strength, even if they were really taken away by the West Sea, there wouldn’t be absolutely no trace left here.”
“It seems so.”
Ming Dian slightly nodded his head upon hearing this and said, “Shall I take some people to look around nearby? Perhaps they went somewhere else.”
“That sounds good.”
Nether Sea Thunder Flood Dragon slightly nodded and was about to continue exploring. Yet, he saw the space around them look a bit hazy, as if a mirror was removed, exposing a stretch of ruins in front of them.
And on these ruins, Bai Qi was discussing something with Sir Nicholas and the Seven Pets.
“Hmm, we have 986 antiques that are a thousand years old, 2367 that are a hundred years old, and for those under a hundred years… Forget it, I can’t be bothered to tally these junk.”
Bai Qi very contemptuously closed the statistical list on his smart brain, looked at Delta and asked, “Delta, have all those antiques been packed?”
Bloop Bloop.
(They have already been packed and stored in separate spaces, there won’t be any damage.)
Having absorbed the Mirror World, Delta’s control over space has become even stronger. He directly partitioned many separate spaces inside the Time Secret Realm, used to store these antiques.
As for why it was stored in the Time Secret Realm and not the base —
The Time Secret Realm’s time flow was faster than normal, if kept for a few more days, these antiques would feel even older. Maybe, this could fetch more money.
As for suspicions of counterfeiting?
Our antiques are truly weathered by time, not inferior goods artificially aged through chemical means.
“Minister Bai, are you all okay?”
Seeing Bai Qi and the others appear, Nether Sea Thunder Flood Dragon immediately led the Thirteen Protectors and other sea beasts over. Looking at the ruined island below and a pile of damaged sunken ships, he couldn’t help but ask: “Is this, Tired Thought Bay?”
“Correct, but we accidentally collapsed it, and if everything goes according to plan, Tired Thought Bay won’t exist anymore.”
Tired Thought Bay came into existence because of the Dark Emperor, and now that all the tombs of the Dark Emperor are gone, Tired Thought Bay naturally cease to exist.
Bai Qi could only attribute his ongoing unease, pointed out by Sir Nicholas before, to the dispersal of the Dark Emperor’s soul, as he had not found its actual cause.
“Collapsed it?”
Nether Sea Thunder Flood Dragon was somewhat confused. Though he’d never been to Tired Thought Bay, he knew about its scale. He wondered what exactly Bai Qi had done to cause the collapse. No wonder there were rumors among the staff of the Crystal Palace’s Super God Evolution Research Institute that Bai Qi was a “Secret Realm Destroyer.” There seemed to be some truth to this.
“Hm? Minister Bai, your aura seems to have become stronger?”
Nether Sea Thunder Flood Dragon looked at Bai Qi and suddenly noticed that Bai Qi’s aura had become a bit stronger, expressing surprise.
It was not so easy to enhance strength after reaching the status of a Legend. Only those sea beasts that had formed a contract with humans could accelerate their improvement, which would be very evident in their Beast Masters.
But, how come he felt Bai Qi’s aura had gotten a lot stronger in just one night?
“Are you referring to this? I was lucky yesterday. I successfully formed a contract with the seventh pet, and by the way, I also promoted Delta to Emperor Level.”
Bai Qi responded indifferently. The reactions of two Emperor-level pets did indeed make him a lot stronger. Bai Qi felt an urge to try his powers with some ferocious beasts.
“You contracted the seventh? And promoted one as well? Just last night?”
Nether Sea Thunder Flood Dragon was more and more confused, whilst, Ming Dian and other sea beasts were deeply regretful.
Bai Qi’s team had undergone such a massive change while they had just returned to deliver the message. What on earth had they missed!
“Minister Bai indeed has remarkable talent. His speed of power enhancement puts us to shame.”
Nether Sea Thunder Flood Dragon glared at Ming Dian, then changed the subject.
“Oh, by the way, Minister Bai, I heard from Ming Dian, that you caught the Legend Sea Beast of the West Sea, the Icefoot Sea Lice King?”
“Yes, that’s right, it’s lying over there.”
Bai Qi gave a nod towards the direction and said, “Even though it’s from a different sea area, this guy is a pretty good individual. You could consider drawing him in.”
“Oh…”
Nether Sea Thunder Flood Dragon nodded but seemed indifferent.
The Icefoot Sea Lice King was a major representative of the West Sea’s opposition to joining the Deep Sea Alliance. Trying to win him over would be less effective than launching a direct attack.
However, upon seeing the Icefoot Sea Lice King—who was sliced down to a small chunk and currently playing games with the absurd clown and Jie Ta—Nether Sea Thunder Flood Dragon thought otherwise.
“Is this lump… the Icefoot Sea Lice King?”
“Correct, it’s me.”
Aware of the Nether Sea Thunder Flood Dragon’s gaze, the Icefoot Sea Lice King lifted his head. Seeing the strange expression on the Nether Sea Thunder Flood Dragon’s face evoked no feeling of shame in him, but instead, he initiated the conversation.
Whoever had gone through his ordeal of a day would be indifferent to honor or disgrace; being sliced into pieces was not much, as at least he was not boiled into a soup.
“Icefoot Sea Lice King has shown great sincerity, not only agreeing to help us promote the integration of the South Sea and the West Sea but also promising to compensate us with some resources as reparations for attacking us recently.”
Bai Qi, patting the body of the Icefoot Sea Lice King, continued, “I won’t delve into the various other conditions, you can ask it yourself.”
“I understand…”
Nether Sea Thunder Flood Dragon, after a long silence, responded mechanically.
If the Icefoot Sea Lice King wasn’t brewing some kind of conspiracy, it was quite possible that his involvement would greatly enhance the prospects of integrating the South Sea and the West Sea.
But how did Bai Qi manage to do this? And what was with the Icefoot Sea Lice King’s current state…?
“In that case, Alpha, help the Icefoot Sea Lice King heal.”
Gurgle, gurgle…
(“Yes, boss.”)
Alpha nodded slightly, played his finger lightly, and a sword cry sounded from the Sword of Silent Annihilation. The Dragon of Silent Annihilation flew out of it, circled around the Icefoot Sea Lice King, and returned to the sword.
Once the Dragon of Silent Annihilation left, the Icefoot Sea Lice King felt light, and with just a thought, his broken body grew rapidly and returned to its original form.
However, compared to before, the Icefoot Sea Lice King’s aura was significantly weaker.
Without the influence of the Sword of Silent Annihilation, the immense vitality of the Icefoot Sea Lice King finally found its use, yet his severed soul wasn’t able to recover as quickly, it could only gradually nurture over time.
“Let’s go back to the Crystal Palace first and discuss the specifics later.”
Nether Sea Thunder Flood Dragon went back and forth between Alpha and the Icefoot Sea Lice King, have acquired a rough picture of the previous situation, and spoke.
“That’s fine, I’m a bit tired after working all night.”
Bai Qi kept nodding his head. Although his current physique hardly ever made him tired, he still habitually wanted some rest.
He had gained a lot and still needed time to digest these gains.
…
Crystal Palace.
After listening to the Nether Sea Thunder Flood Dragon’s account, the twelve Legendary Sea Beasts fell silent once again, and the legendary Xiao Mu of the Stable Sea, who had just returned, also looked rather strange.
“I have to say, Celestial Brilliance has a remarkable ability to select disciples. Despite his recent promotion, he already possesses such strength.”
Xiao Mu was filled with emotion, and remarked, “I’m beginning to suspect that in a while, you might start to contend for titles.”
“Xiao Chuanqi, you’re praising me too much; it’s just that Alpha is a bit more special.”
The Power of Death was inherently unique, and given that Alpha had integrated other attributes and upgraded into Immortal-level skills, being extremely powerful was quite normal.
“A bit special? I think all your Beasts are special.”
Xiao Mu shook his head, and asked, “Right, you just said the Tribes and other seas have been in contact? And the Death Round Table is also involved?”
“If the Icefoot Sea Lice King wasn’t lying, then yes.”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Mu fell silent, his eyes flickering, without saying anything for a long time.
“Humph! Those beasts dare to tamper with the sea territories, who gave them the courage!”
The Bloodthirsty Bat Skate King sneered, “If I weren’t dismissive of the land territories, I would have annihilated them long ago.”
“Don’t be so arrogant, the strength of the Tribes is not inferior to us sea territories. If a conflict truly arises, we won’t have much of an advantage.”
Nether Sea Thunder Flood Dragon shook his head. Even though the sea territories were vast and there were many Legendary Sea Beasts, the structure of the sea territories was looser than that of the Tribes. If war really broke out, it would be hard to say who would win.

“Indeed, based on our many years of experience dealing with the Tribes, their strength should not be underestimated.”
Xiao Mu suddenly spoke up, “And in my personal opinion, what we need to be cautious of is not just the Tribes, but also the Death Round Table.”
They already knew about the entanglement of the Death Round Table with the Tribes. Now, it had also started messing with the sea territories, and even involved the Tribes, which had hardly any interaction with the sea territories for tens of thousands of years. Whatever way they thought of it, it was indeed worrisome.
“I think so too, and I suspect that the Death Round Table has been eyeing the sea territories for quite some time.”
Bai Qi added, his words filled with concern.
Manipulating the Power of Death to alter sea beasts, creating the Death Knights, and the peculiar state of the Eleven Knights previously, it was evident that the Death Round Table had a complete plan.
“It seems that the sea territories will soon become lively…”
Xiao Mu wore a heavy expression, a strong sense of crisis enveloping everyone’s hearts.
