Beast Taming: the More the Better

Chapter 1016: Chapter 424: Return to Dragon City! Temple of Time! (Part 2)

Therefore, this sleep was quite sweet.

The glow of the Dragon Emblem flickered, and as the street ahead shimmered slowly, the familiar yet strangely unfamiliar Dragon City appeared once again in Su Ping’s sight.

Dragon City seemed unguarded, but it was evident that the moment Su Ping’s footsteps just entered Dragon City’s territory, a voice rang in his ears:

“You’re here? Come on over!”

As soon as the words were spoken, Su Ping’s body uncontrollably traversed the space, appearing atop that familiar pavilion.

The Legend of the Holy Dragon, whom he had seen some days prior, appeared in Su Ping’s vision with a faint smile.

Su Ping hurriedly saluted:

“Greetings, Legendary Lord.”

The Legend of the Holy Dragon waved a hand, then snapped his fingers, and Su Ping’s consciousness extended instantly, appearing once more in that space composed entirely of spiritual power.

“Not bad, this time in the career assessment, you performed exceptionally well, beyond my expectations!”

The man spoke with a smile, without any airs.

“It was just good luck…”

Before Su Ping could finish his humble words, the man interrupted with a smile:

“Alright, if being the first in the youth career assessment among layers of selection is luck, then this special assessment event was run too poorly.

Su Ping, you are the strongest among all the young Beastmasters this year, there’s no doubt about that!

You came here this time, someone mentioned it to you last night, didn’t they?”

Su Ping nodded, somewhat anxious:

“For being the first this time, they said there was a special task to undertake?”

The man nodded:

“That’s right. This was something I decided a month ago when the provincial exams officially began. However, there have been some changes recently.”

Before Su Ping could curiously ask, the man began to explain:

“When the Water Venerable left the Kyushu Continent back then, he entered the Endless Sea Domain and gained control of part of the Sea God’s Will. His strength is quite good even among the Legendary Level.

But, having just been revived, it’s impossible to grasp all the power.

At first, Dragon Nation was prepared to intervene in the contention for the Sea God’s Will, as some of the rules of the Sea God’s Will have manifested, perhaps allowing only some low-level Beastmasters and ferocious beasts to participate in the scramble and to enter.

Moreover, it’s not just Dragon Nation; the whole East is involved.

Apart from Dragon Nation, some areas like Sakura Island Country and the Elephant Kingdom have also started getting restless, not to mention parts of the Ferocious Beast Kingdom under the Endless Sea Domain.

Regarding the Eastern Sea and the Endless Sea Domain, Dragon Nation is determined to win.

However, regarding you, I’ve changed my mind!”

Saying this, the man’s look at Su Ping was slightly peculiar.

There was a kind of indescribable implication.

“So, Su Ping, you don’t need to be involved in this. If you have time, just complete the previous task as soon as possible!

Regarding the consciousness independence of the Water Venerable’s avatar, Jiao Ji, and the expansion of the External Incarnation!

Once you finish this research, if you feel like it, you can join in the excitement.”

Hmm?

Su Ping blinked; no need?

And… External Incarnation?

Su Ping looked at the smiling Master of the Holy Dragon in front of him.

Even with an illusory spiritual image, Su Ping’s hair stood on end a little.

Did he discover it?

He immediately responded:

“Rest assured, I will definitely work hard!”

The man continued to smile:

“I am very assured!”

With those four words, Su Ping instantly understood that this man could probably confirm it.

But since the other party didn’t spell it out, Su Ping might as well keep playing dumb.

However, Su Ping was genuinely curious; does an External Incarnation skill really have such a significant impact?

Although the skill’s value is indeed extraordinary from a personal perspective.

But considering Xiao Qing’s performance during this period, it doesn’t seem capable of affecting the situation on such a scale, does it?

However, Su Ping couldn’t be bothered to think too much.

It was evident that the Legend of the Holy Dragon wasn’t inclined to dwell on this topic further, instead directly changing the subject:

“Alright, the Dragon Pet chosen by your Dragon Emblem authority is already back in Dragon City. Get ready to take a look.”

Upon hearing this, Su Ping’s eyes lit up.

The promised Time-series Dragon Pet!

He was very eager for it.

“However, before you go, there’s one more thing!”

With those words from the Legend of the Holy Dragon, a snap of his fingers, and their consciousness returned to the pavilion.

Before Su Ping could collect his thoughts, several special figures appeared in front of him.

The fiery flames around Su Ping rapidly raised the temperature.

The crackling sound made Su Ping startled, watching these burning flames floating in the air,

flames of varying sizes, the largest as big as a human head, the smallest the size of a fingertip.

But they all gave Su Ping an extremely familiar feeling.

Indeed, almost instantly, Su Ping recognized what these flames were!

“Flame Venerable Fire Spirits?”

Su Ping stood frozen.

Looking at these Flame Venerable Fire Spirits.

The largest one, a human head-sized flame, was even exuding a Monarch Pinnacle level aura.

Yet, all five of these Flame Venerable Fire Spirits submitted obediently here.

The Legend of the Holy Dragon smiled slightly:

“Summon it.”

Su Ping understood and quickly summoned Little Flame.

“Hiss! Hiss…”

The newly emerged Little Flame wanted to showcase itself but instantly felt as if an abyssal aura had descended.

The man glanced at the trembling Little Flame and smiled slightly:

“Interesting.”

Then, the man slowly spoke: “Disperse!”

Instantly exploding, the concentrated five Flame Venerable Fire Spirits burst apart amidst Little Flame’s terrified hissing!

Like a miniature sun explosion,

the pavilion filled with countless small flames.

The man calmly looked at Su Ping:

“Gather them up and slowly fuse them!”

Su Ping eagerly nodded. He then quickly collected these resisting-free Fire Venerable Avatars into the Beast Taming Space.

He understood the other’s painstaking effort.

If he had any intentions regarding Little Flame, fusing the Fire Spirits would indeed be difficult.

As it stands, it was as though the other party had already chewed it up and now fed it to Little Flame.

Indeed!

Relying on a big tree makes for good shade!

Not to mention, even if he found these almost finished Flame Venerable Fire Spirits, it wouldn’t be easy to capture them all with Little Flame.

Little Flame also seemed to sense these other avatars, its upcoming food, as the thumb-sized flame started to tremble slightly.

“Hiss hiss (human… although scary! But… a good person!)”

Little Flame lavishly handed out a “good person card” to the Legend of the Holy Dragon.

The man didn’t mind this little creature’s flattery. After all the flames in the pavilion dissipated, he finally stood up and unfathomably instructed:

“Su Ping, that dragon is very special and strange, prepare yourself mentally!”

Su Ping was again surprised.

This dragon made him, of all people, say it’s strange and special?

What exactly is this so-called Time-series Dragon Pet?

Su Ping nodded.

Then, the Legend of the Holy Dragon finally ceased talking, waving his hand gently,

and the familiar feeling of space traversal reappeared.

But this time, it wasn’t like before, appearing in front of that dark Dragon Gate.

Instead, he arrived at an exceptionally ordinary place.

Before an extremely ordinary palace.

Bearing some ancient architectural style, but that was all.

And that old familiar voice, at this moment, rang out as well.

“The little fellow finally came!”

The Candle Dragon’s head appeared out of nowhere in sight:

“Come in. This is the Library of Dragon City. However, I prefer to call it the Temple of Time.”
