Chapter 73: Chapter 72: Inheritance Tower (Part 2)
рlease,reading On ΒΟXΝOVEL.ϹʘMThe battle had ended, and Chen Xing had discovered a serious deficiency in Taotie.
On land without water, it was just a live target.
Fortunately, the opponent was even slower, a snail.
Chen Xing noticed that the snail was also covertly moving backward, attempting to change position, but it took a minute just to move a body length.
Wait a minute… a body length?
Chen Xing recalled his encounters with Little Wo, a platinum mutant of the malevolent snail, which belonged to the same species variant as the benevolent snail.
But in terms of movement speed, Little Wo was much faster than this snail.
Could it be that its mutation was directed towards speed?
He pushed the thought aside, but it was due to the snail's slower movement speed that Taotie had room to take advantage, which might not be available against a more agile opponent.
That's why he had just chosen the Great Flood Skill Orb.
Once it reached Energy Level 25, he would let it master the Great Flood skill so that no matter the terrain, Taotie could immediately turn it into an advantageous environment for itself.
Of course, besides terrain skills, advancement skills could also change its fighting style and greatly compensate for its shortcomings.
There were also long-range attack methods… but those were not urgent.
Compared to long-range attack skills, Chen Xing preferred Taotie to master restriction or control type skills, which could bring flying enemies within close range.
After all, as a Beast Tamer mainly focusing on close combat, even mastering one or two long-range skills wouldn't compensate for its weaknesses.
For those specialized in high-mobility long-range attacks, without matching corresponding skills, simply one or two long-range output skills were hardly a threat to them.
The number of skills a Beast Tamer could master was limited, so it was best to specialize in a particular path.
The body of the benevolent snail gradually faded and disappeared, and the platform that had appeared earlier rose again from the center of the arena.
This time, he had to choose one from three prizes again.
To the left was a small bag of golden coins, in the middle was an egg, and to the right was a broken horn.
Chen Xing took out his phone to photograph and translate the text on the pedestal.
The left was a bag of Spirit Gold, the currency of an exotic region, which Coach Kuang had introduced before his departure. Great Xia officials and many factions were buying Spirit Gold obtained from the secret realms privately, and he was told that if there was no extremely attractive prize, he could choose Spirit Gold.
Spirit Gold discovered in the secret realms were now known as Ancient Spirit Gold in foreign lands.
It could be used to directly purchase some rare items through Great Xia's official channels.
The middle egg was from a benevolent snail, a local characteristic Beast from Dream City, whose parents had a high energy level marked with excellent potential.
The item on the right was the broken horn of the Water King Rhino, which could be used as evolution material for Water Element Beasts. This type of crucial organ material from the creatures could serve as a substitute for many evolution materials.
As for the middle egg… his sister already possessed a malevolent snail, which was also a platinum mutation.
For now, Chen Xing had tentatively decided not to consider the type of the benevolent snail for his second Beast Taming option, especially since Teacher Han had promised the prospect of a Dragon Breed Beast.
So… it's the bag of Ancient Spirit Gold on the left.
After choosing the reward, Chen Xing carried the heavy bag in his hand that he estimated contained at least a hundred pieces of Spirit Gold.
A green light covered them, and the drained magical power inside Taotie replenished, and the bumpy scars on the top of its head's armor slowly returned to their original state.
In the central area inside the Inheritance Tower, the ground unknowingly began to seep water, which grew more abundant and gradually submerged Chen Xing's shoes.
Chen Xing climbed onto Taotie's back. The water increased continuously, but this environment made Taotie feel even more comfortable.
The once-exposed and thus dry crocodile skin gradually became moist…
But this aquatic environment, uncomfortable for other creatures, made Taotie feel like a fish in water.
Its tail gently swished, stirring the water.
The water level kept rising.
It soon completely submerged Taotie's body, and its body gradually vanished under the water, while Chen Xing sitting on its back also gradually faded, blending into the surrounding environment.
A new creature's phantom gradually emerged from nothing, with a splash heard in the distance.
A nearly four-meter-long fish leaped into the water, its yellow form flashing momentarily.
[Species]Yellow Horn Scale Fish
[State]Hallucination, Rage
[Attribute]Water
[Energy Level]28
[Energy Level Limit]28
[Body Length]3.78 meters
[Weight]490kg
[Skills]
Primary Skills: Nimble Water Beads (Mastered), Water Mirror Reflection (Mastered), Scale Armor Hardening (Mastered), Rapid Collision (Mastered)
Intermediate Skill: Terrifying Wave Spectral Hand (Mastered)
Chen Xing lay on Taotie's back, gripping its scaled back tightly.
Taotie moved steadily in the water, its back barely wobbling—if one could ignore the four short legs ceaselessly scraping beneath it and the tail behind.
Besides that, there was another issue: the spiky protrusions on its back were somewhat uncomfortable…
Suddenly, Taotie accelerated, and Chen Xing's expression subtly changed as he quietly shifted his lower body position.
No choice, he had to consider fitting a bulletproof basket on Taotie's back.
He had heard that some Beast Tamers would “beautify” certain parts of their beasts to facilitate riding.
The child had grown up, it was necessary.
Although the Yellow Horned Scale Fish couldn't see Taotie, the movements in the water still drew its attention.
From time to time, it watched vigilantly in this direction.
Chen Xing gently tapped three times on Taotie's back.
Taotie understood instantly.
The sudden whipping up of the Great Vortex not only sucked in the Yellow Horned Scale Fish into the torrent but also robbed it of its ability to judge the delicate flows of the water.
Just as it turned around, a gaping maw suddenly appeared in front of it, biting its big head.
Once its head entered the crocodile's massive jaws, the ending was sealed.
Death Roll!
The Death Roll in the water was the complete version.
In the two seconds before the Death Roll began, Chen Xing jumped off the “ride” to get as far away as possible.
Otherwise, he'd end up like clothes in a tumble dryer.
He didn't know how Taotie's head was structured. It could spin like that without getting dizzy.
Even the Yellow Horned Scale Fish, with an energy level of 28, could only end up with its head and body shattered helplessly in Taotie's grip.
Outside the Inheritance Tower.
Two figures flashed past; a man and a woman appeared outside the Inheritance Tower.
Chi Ziyao emerged from the tower, her expression dazed, not having expected to be eliminated at the third level.
Mainly because she hadn't anticipated that the third level would be a water terrain, a two-meter deep water environment was really unexpected.
Her Golden Iron Beast stood only 2.5 meters tall, and in the water, its strength couldn't perform even seventy percent against the adult Yellow Horned Scale Fish, which constantly sneak-attacked like an old hand, ultimately leading to her helpless defeat.
She suspected that this adult Yellow Horned Scale Fish was of energy level 28.
If it were indeed level 28, then it would surpass her beast by five levels.
However, a gap of five levels wasn't an insurmountable ditch; if the tactics were sound, and combined with the excellent melee talents of her Golden Iron Beast, victory was not an impossibility.
But the issue was this Yellow Horned Scale Fish also had the home ground advantage; it was a pity her beast nearly won.
If it had been a land environment, facing another monster of level 28, she might have had a chance to win.
“Didn't expect to still lose…” The young man beside her looked back and said in a grave tone, “Someone has passed the third level.”
Chi Ziyao also felt a shock at the bottom of her heart, looking back to see the lantern outside the fourth layer of the ancient tower lit up.
This indicated someone was challenging the fourth level.
Who could it be?
He Jun asked, “Didn't expect you to be eliminated too, do you know who's at the fourth level?”
A name suddenly flashed in Chi Ziyao's mind.
“Let me see… from the current list, the only undefeated one is Chen Xing from Azure Dragon Middle School,” the officer checked the roster in his hand.
“Chen Xing from Azure Dragon Middle School,” He Jun repeated the name. His coach had also told him to watch out for this person, suggesting he could very well be his formidable rival in the college entrance exams three years later.
Indeed, he was out of the ordinary! He Jun felt the pressure, but it spurred his fighting spirit even more.
Chi Ziyao didn't expect her first indirect confrontation to result in her loss.
Although there were reasons related to the terrain, she wasn't one to make excuses for her defeat.
The first and second levels were terrestrial terrains, and she knew that Chen Xing's beast was a Salty Bay Crocodile, whose combat effectiveness would definitely be reduced on land.
Moreover, Dream City primarily focuses on illusion, water, wood, and poison element beasts, so it was normal for a water terrain to appear; it was all random.
She couldn't always blame the environment and had to look within herself for reasons.
After a while, the lantern on the fourth layer went out, and the lantern on the fifth layer did not light up.
The entrance flashed brightly as Chen Xing came out of the Inheritance Tower, speechless.
The guardian monster of the fourth level was a level 35 Thundering Tortoise with both water and thunder attributes, its shell as hard as steel. No, it was exactly that—a terrapin!
It could cast thunder spells in the water.
He nearly got electrocuted into having a heart attack.
Fortunately, upon seeing the old terrapin the first time, Chen Xing had Taotie stay away, then he got off himself, trying to stay as far from the battlefield as possible, letting Taotie go in for a desperate close combat.
However, the Thundering Tortoise was very cautious, retracting its head, limbs, and tail into its shell.
Then it launched spells through its shell, exhausting Taotie.
Taotie left numerous claw and tooth marks on its shell surface, but it was still a distance away from breaching the armor.
And because Chen Xing was too far from the battlefield, he couldn't feed Taotie to replenish its magic power, ultimately being grinded down to defeat by the relentless Thundering Tortoise.
