Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Infinitely

Chapter 571: Chapter 566: Earth Core

“What just happened? Gamma, did you directly attack his soul?”

Bai Qi slightly frowned, if the soul leaves the core, the value of this core would decrease significantly.

Humph-chirp, Humph-chirp.

(Gamma did not, Gamma just purified those evil powers.)

Gamma shook its head, its round eyes full of doubts.

“His soul’s origin was already contaminated by the evil power, nearly wiped out.”

Jerry glanced at the gradually dimming core and said, “If I’m not wrong, this Earth Elemental would have felt Gamma’s evil power, causing it to find us.”

Bai Qi nodded slightly, indeed, the course of the Earth Elemental was directly towards them, it didn’t look accidental.

Looking at the core beforehand, it obviously got contaminated by evil power, but it wasn’t a lot, that’s why it’s in its present state.

However, how could there be evil power existing in this Earth Elemental Realm?

“Gamma, can you sense the presence of evil power nearby?”

Bai Qi patted Gamma and asked.

Humph-chirp, Humph-chirp

(Master, Gamma cannot.)

Gamma tried to sense it but came up with nothing.

The earth attribute energy around here was too rich, it was unable to sense other attributes of energy.

Arwoo, arwoo!

(This doggo found it, there’s a similar fluctuation of evil power over there!)

Beta suddenly sprang up, darting out of the Divine Protection, but was instantly pressed to the ground by the sudden increase in gravity outside the Diamond Light Barrier.

Arwoo, arwoo…

(Human, come to save this doggo…)

“This stupid dog, it has no sense of crisis at this time?”

Rendered speechless by this sight, Bai Qi looked at Alpha. Alpha understood, the Sword of Annihilation flew out from behind and hovered over their heads.

In an instant, the gravity around them returned to normal.

The Sword of Annihilation utilized a strong force of gravity for its attack, Alpha had no difficulty neutralizing the surrounding gravity.

With Alpha’s help, everyone could move freely. Six pets along with a human strode grandly towards the direction the Earth Elemental came from.

…

Boom!

A golden monkey fell heavily from the sky but before it could react, a fist as large as a small mountain descended from the sky and aimed at the monkey.

At that moment, a nine-tailed lion appeared, biting the body of the monkey and flashing to one side to avoid direct damage.

“Thank you.”

Huangfu Wujiu nodded slightly at Bai Tongchen, expressing his gratitude.

“No need, let’s deal with this giant first.”

Bai Tongchen shook his head, looking at the Rock Giant in front of him whose body was flowing with green magma, his face grave.

After they were pulled into the magma, they were inexplicably teleported here. Before they could get a grip on the situation, they were attacked by the Rock Giant.

Although they were prepared for an ambush after being tricked by the tribe to come here, the Rock Giant was far stronger than they anticipated. Despite being three on one, they were still on the receiving end of the beatings.

“The evil power on this giant is very strong, it’s probably related to the Demon Clan, everyone be careful.”

While Uffie was launching psychic attacks trying to interfere with the Rock Giant, she said.

“No need to think, this thing has definitely had direct contact with the Demon Clan’s things, no, perhaps this thing is a result of the Demon Clan.”

Bai Tongchen said, “Regardless, if we want to leave here, we must get rid of this thing.”

“Yes, let’s hurry up, we don’t know what’s going on outside.”

Huangfu Wujiu nodded slightly. The three of them were pulled in here while the several legendary ferocious beasts from the tribe were still staying in their original place. If they were attacking the Wasteland Wall at this time, who knows what would happen.

The three launched another attack at the Rock Giant. Provoked this way, the Rock Giant became even more violent. Each of its attacks would cause the ground beneath them to tremble violently.

…

“Hm? Why is there suddenly an earthquake?”

Feeling the trembling from underneath his feet, Bai Qi was a little puzzled.

Crack-crack.

(Boss, it seems like something from the distance is smashing the ground.)

After carefully sensing it, Alpha said.

“Hitting the ground? Is it a giant stone that got lifted?”

Understanding, Bai Qi didn’t think much about it. Then, he looked at Beta and Gamma and asked, “How about it, did you find the place?”

Arwoo, arwoo!

(It should be here, but this doggo can’t smell it anymore.)

Beta tried hard to search around but couldn’t pinpoint the exact location.

Humph-chirp, Humph-chirp.

(Gamma also, feels the evil power but can’t determine the location.)

Arwoo, arwoo!

(After this doggo’s deduction, the evil power might be underground!)

“Hehe… Do you even need to infer that?”

Bai Qi’s mouth twitched, he looked at Delta and asked, “Delta, can you teleport underground?”

Boopli-Boopli.

(You can, but before we find a space where we can move, you all have to stay in Delta’s pocket dimension.)

Delta said.

“This is not a problem, it is safer this way,” Bai Qi remarked.

During their journey, they encountered several Earth Elementals, all of which had been corrupted by the Evil Power, and their souls were polluted.

As such, it was highly likely that the changes in these Earth Elementals occurred at the soul stage due to the influence of the Evil Power, hence their transformation.

And the source of this sinister power was naturally in the underground.

“Zodiac Mouse could try to go underground.”

Schuck stopped Bai Qi and promptly released Zodiac Mouse.

Unlike a normal mouse of small stature, this mechanical mouse created by Schuck was unprecedentedly large, and could be regarded as a large chariot.

When Zodiac Mouse appeared, its tail transformed into a long ladder that stretched out in front of Bai Qi, and from the other end of the ladder, a mechanical door connected to the mouse’s back opened.

This Zodiac Mouse originated from the Emperor Treasure Rat, and Schuck had modified its inherent treasure sack to form the present compartment.

“Wow… this thing is practically a fully automatic drilling machine,” Bai Qi said in awe.

After entering the body of Zodiac Mouse, Bai Qi felt excited to test it out after learning about its various functions from Schuck.

Awooo~ Awooo!

(Wait for me, I want to try it too!)

Purr Purr~

(This looks fun, I want to come in too.)

Clip-clop! Clip-clop!

(Then, Gamma will join in too!)

Clatter clatter.

(Be careful not to hurt the leader!)

“Phew ~ I thought I was about to be squashed as a cockroach.”

Thump Thump.

(Master, be careful. Delta will enlarge the space inside.)

All Six Pets rushed into Zodiac Mouse one after the other, and the originally spacious interior was immediately cramped, until Delta enlarged the space inside, it then became barely habitable.

“Stupid dog, move your butt off my head right now!”

Bai Qi irately patted the Husky on his head, and then he began to command the Zodiac Mouse to drill towards the ground.

As a creature that constantly prowls various mountains in search of ore, Zodiac Mouse had an extremely sharp pair of claws that could easily dig through the sturdy ground, quickly advancing towards the underground.

With the further deepening of their journey, Gamma became more and more excited, clearly sensing the presence of Evil Power ahead.

After they obtained the Holy Light Secret Realm, Gamma’s Holy Light Attribute became stronger and stronger, while the Evil Power gradually showed signs of decline.

However, the Evil Power’s dominance, coupled with the coordination between the Infinite Body and Twin-Life Contract, meant there were no slip-ups.

But now that Gamma finally had another opportunity to encounter the Evil Power, it was naturally very excited.

However, among the Six Pets, one pet was feeling the complete opposite of Gamma.

Awarely watching the display screen inside the Zodiac Mouse’s control cabin, Bai Qi suddenly sensed a hint of sorrow from his bond and turned his head only to see that, for some unknown reason, Jie Ta was quietly weeping at the sight.

Among all the pets, Jie Ta’s mental state was the lowest. It was normal for it to be emotional, but it usually quickly exploded after feeling aggrieved. This sort of sorrowful appearance, however, was a rare sight.

“What’s the matter, Jie Ta? What’s wrong?”

Purr purr.

(Jie Ta doesn’t know… he just suddenly felt a bit sad.)

Jie Ta blankly shook his small head, staring at the soil breaking apart on the screen in a daze.

“Sad?”

Bai Qi glanced at the screen, seemingly understanding something.

Bang!

At that moment, the Zodiac Mouse abruptly hit something hard and could no longer move forward.

“It seems that there’s a solid rock layer ahead that we can’t pass.”

Schuck quickly understood the situation and said, “But there should be a huge space behind this rock layer; I can detect a lot of powerful energy in there.”

“Rock layer… that should be our destination.”

Bai Qi nodded slightly, then looked at Delta. Delta immediately knew what to do, he gathered everyone into his pocket dimension and with a flash, disappeared into the soil.

When Delta reappeared, he had already made it to the other side of the rock wall.

Thump Thump.

(Master, you might want to come out and see this.)

Delta brought out Bai Qi and the others, pointing to a huge round stone floating above their heads.

Bai Qi followed Delta’s pointing finger and was shocked to find that the large round stone above his head was absorbing and releasing a large amount of Earth attribute energy. And with each cycle, the gravity around him seemed to be changing.

“This… could it be the legendary Earth Core?”

Bai Qi remembered the Elemental World trivia that Water Spirit had once told him about.

The beings of the Elemental World could reincarnate after death, but not from thin air. They too depended on something, and this dependency was on the core of the Elemental World.

For instance, the core of the Earth Elemental World was the Earth Core before them.

But now, what was presented before Bai Qi was not just the Earth Core.

Above the Earth Core, was a massive stone burning with Green Flame. Every so often, a small chunk of green stone would fall from the Earth Core.

And such stones had already accumulated to hundreds below!
