Chapter 118: Tidal Sea Spirit
Chapter 118: Tidal Sea Spirit
After chatting with Elder Tie for a while, the old man found an excuse and went to rest.
Given his age, having participated in a battle of such intensity, he indeed needed a good period of recuperation.
Watching Elder Tie's slow departure, Li Qian's gaze gradually became determined.
He had to help Elder Tie break through to the Imperial-grade.
At his age, with the internal injuries accumulated from years of battles, if he couldn't break through to the Imperial-grade and receive the Evolutionary Feedback, he probably didn't have many years left.
As far as Li Qian knew, under normal circumstances, if a Beastmaster's power level reached the Overlord Rank, theoretically, their lifespan could reach 150 years.
And if they broke through to the Imperial-grade, they could gain an additional fifty years of lifespan.
If they attained the Spiritual Saint Rank, they could also achieve a form of transcendence, and according to rumors, their lifespan could reach three hundred years.
Of course, all of this was just theoretical knowledge Li Qian had read in books; in reality, it was even more complicated.
For example, someone like Elder Tie, who had been fighting for years and suffered internal injuries, would definitely have a shortened lifespan.
Another example was Li Qian's situation; if he reached the Overlord Rank in the future, his lifespan would undoubtedly be longer than Elder Tie's.
Because he had contracted the Green Scaled Serpent and Frostfire Salamander, both of which were sub-dragon species of Companion Beasts, and in terms of lifespan extension, the Evolutionary Feedback would be greater.
And if he contracted a Life-type Companion Beast, like the Holy Light Angel of the Peach Sage, the bonus in this aspect would be even more incredible.
On the surface, Elder Tie looked like a small old man in his sixties, but his actual age was likely older.
So, Li Qian felt a sense of urgency.
This time, when they ambushed the Dragon Bull inside the Unstable Rift, if it weren't for Elder Tie, he would have been dead beyond dead.
This debt of gratitude must be repaid! With this thought, he didn't hesitate and immediately took out his phone to check.
He looked through the information on the four Companion Beasts: Thunderlion, Inferno Viper, Four-Winged Mantis, and Golden Bead Snail.
Soon, he discovered that these four Companion Beasts had indeed all reached their highest evolutionary forms.
However, after logging into the Beastmaster's internal network, Li Qian made an extraordinary discovery.
There were numerous studies and speculations about the subsequent evolution of these four Companion Beasts, and some of the research had even reached a certain depth.
Among them was a study from the Central Sea Beastmaster University, with the ID "Pink Memory." According to his statement, he had unintentionally evolved a Golden Bead Snail into a Tidal Sea Spirit.
Unfortunately, the evolution was incomplete, lacking unknown critical steps or materials, and this Tidal Sea Spirit, which had already completed its evolution, reverted to a Golden Bead Snail after about a quarter of an hour.
Upon reading this, Li Qian's heart couldn't help but stir with excitement.
According to the explanation of the Beastmaster with the ID "Pink Memory," this Tidal Sea Spirit was a powerful Companion Beast with an Imperial Third-Rank level.
With his strength and experience, and with the support of Shazhou Beastmaster Academy, helping Elder Tie evolve his Golden Bead Snail into a Tidal Sea Spirit and quickly breaking through to the Imperial-grade shouldn't be a difficult task.
Although he had a goal, Li Qian didn't give up his search but continued scrolling down.
Through his search, Li Qian found many studies on these four Companion Beasts, some reliable and some not.
For example, one article speculated that the evolution of the Four-Winged Mantis might be the Spiritual Saint Rank potential Eight-Winged Mantis.
In the beginning, Li Qian was quite interested and read the article carefully.
After finishing it, he couldn't help but want to criticize.
What is all this about? Without any investigation or factual basis, they're just making empty speculations.
And an article like this can even be found on the Breeder's internal network, making Li Qian wonder if there are also incompetent breeders among them.
After a little thought, he understood that the breeder field was similar to the scientific research industry in his past life. There were those with genuine talent and knowledge, but there were also those who were all talk and no substance.
The saying, "Clear water harbors no fish," was something he understood.
After thoroughly reading through the article again, in the end, Li Qian's gaze settled on Golden Bead Snail.
However, when he saw that the prerequisite for participating in this project was to go to Zhong Hai and research with this "Pink Memory," he couldn't help but sigh. It would be better to charge a fee directly! But in situations like this, it's not uncommon for someone to start researching alone, realize they can't complete it by themselves, and then post on the breeder's internal network seeking assistance. So, he didn't say anything.
Breeders with true capabilities don't lack money, and they might not even lack task points. Requesting joint research wasn't surprising.
With determination, during the summer vacation, Li Qian decided to go to Zhong Hai to meet this "Pink Memory." He put away his phone and stopped browsing.
"That's enough!" Li Qian said, looking at An Fat, who was still playing with Coalhead, getting himself soaked and dripping wet.
"Alright, alright, I'm leaving!" An Fat chuckled, recalling Coalhead into his Beast Space and leaving the breeding ground.
This guy had been at the breeding ground for over two days. If Li Qian hadn't reminded him, he probably would have been having too much fun to think of home.
The next day, someone unexpected arrived at the breeding ground—Mu Qianqian, who had fought alongside them before.
After the initial surprise, Li Qian quickly understood the reason for her visit.
Mu Qianqian, although she had reached the Overlord rank in strength, had only contracted two Companion Beasts. Her visit was most likely for the Green Scaled Serpent or the Frostfire Salamander.
Indeed, as Li Qian had guessed, after hearing Mu Qianqian's intention, he agreed without hesitation. "You want a Frostfire Salamander? No problem. You can try communicating with them, and if they agree, you can take it directly."
Without pausing, he continued, "If they don't agree to go with you, you can also evolve a Koi, but this takes time. Evolving a Koi into a Frostfire Salamander has a high failure rate, so I suggest you send over several high-potential Koi."
