Beast Taming: the More the Better

Chapter 712: Chapter 317: Xiao Qing’s Stage! The Flawless Green Demon Wolf Spirit!

The sound of a Wolf Howl echoed throughout the entire sea platform.

Old Sha’s increasingly powerful physique patrolled the sea surface surrounding the sea platform.

The brilliant sunlight was completely absorbed by the Heart of the Sun, becoming power accumulated by Old Sha.

This transformed the Wanmu Wolf, originally covered with tree branches all over its body, into a Child of Light, as if it had become a mobile light source.

Its originally deep azure body gradually turned somewhat white.

Indeed, the effectiveness of this sea platform was remarkable. Almost immediately after the Water Essence Gold was placed, within less than three minutes, a SPLUTTERING sound, like boiling water, could be heard around Sea Platform Number Eighteen.

And beneath the shimmering surface of the azure seawater, bright blue figures emerged from the depths.

Their bodies were nearly three meters long. Even more eye-catching was the extension at the front of their mouths: an incredibly sharp, sword-like upper jaw spike! These were Golden Flag Swordfish, Metal Element aquatic Pet Beasts.

Their primary attack method was the ’sword’—an extension over a meter long from near their nostrils.

Under the sunlight, it shimmered with a metallic luster, seemingly capable of piercing through any hard substance.

At the same time, the scales covering their bodies were as hard as steel; ordinary attacks could not inflict the slightest damage.

Even Advanced Level Mechanical Weapons, like sniper rifles, would struggle to harm them without special material Armor-piercing Bullets. This showcased their terrifying defensive power!

This was the Golden Flag Swordfish!

It possessed no flashy Skills, being a Pet Beast that relied purely on physical attacks.

A single one of these creatures would be manageable, but once they grouped together to form a ’sword formation’ in the ocean, a single charge could cleave through yachts or even colossal ships.

Moreover, their underwater movement was extremely fast, making them true underwater killers.

However, due to their size, they had never been seen near the Heart of Water before. But now, in West Dragon Lake, with a large-scale influx of Ferocious Beasts from the Eastern Sea, they had been spotted.

Under Su Ping’s observation, the first Golden Flag Swordfish from the school finally came ashore!

Its small eyes, disproportionate to its huge body, were firmly fixed on the center of the sea platform, revealing an unmistakable greed for the Water Essence Gold in the recess.

As expected, these dimwitted fish really have no brains!

They’ve fought here so many times and possibly suffered many casualties, yet they still greedily approach upon detecting the scent of valuable resources. Such brainless behavior is rare among Commander Level Pet Beasts.

Nevertheless, Su Ping could understand, as the underwater living environment differed from that on land.

He didn’t dwell on it, because Old Sha had already made his move. The first Golden Flag Swordfish to reach the shore wriggled its body. Though its speed had lessened considerably compared to its movement in water, it was still extremely agile.

An improvement in Realm allowed aquatic Pet Beasts to remain adapted to underwater life, but they were certainly not easy prey even on land.

The sharp edge of its sword-bill and the Bloodthirst in its eyes indicated that this first Golden Flag Swordfish to arrive was a genuine Ferocious Beast.

Unfortunately, just as its body charged forward like a lancing knight, it was immediately enveloped by an inescapable net.

Old Sha’s Tree Prison instantly formed, and in a single exchange, completely bound the first Golden Flag Swordfish that rushed onto the sea platform.

Then, the Tree Prison, seemingly possessing immense power, compressed again. The ironwood branches pierced directly through the swordfish’s gills. As blood flowed out, it was promptly absorbed by the ironwood branches of the Tree Prison.

In the span of a single breath, the Golden Flag Swordfish’s blood and life force were completely drained by the branches, leading to its violent death!

The body of the Golden Flag Swordfish, over three meters long not including the length of its sword-bill, was tossed in front of Su Ping.

Su Ping rubbed his hands together and took out the carving knife he had prepared.

The knife itself was of good quality. Moreover, now that the Golden Flag Swordfish had lost its vitality, the terrifying defensive strength of its Scale Armor had greatly diminished.

With a slight exertion of force, Su Ping easily pierced its body.

Beneath the scales, the snow-white fat and the clearly demarcated lines of red flesh truly made one’s mouth water.

Su Ping nodded in satisfaction. It seems Zhao Chen didn’t deceive me.

For Su Ping, the greatest value of these dimwitted fish lay in the gastronomic pleasure they could provide.

Other types of meat require some processing before consumption, but this kind of fish meat is quite delicious even when eaten raw.

Su Ping was quite knowledgeable about this.

He didn’t rush. With deft knife work, he first sliced off a piece and tossed it to the eager Little Crow.

“GAGA!”

Although nearing ancestral reversion, which had greatly reduced its demand for food, the Little Crow still cried out excitedly, clearly satisfied with the taste.

Unfortunately, Qian Yi, who was nearby, had no interest in such things. This Paperman, whose mind was filled with nothing but Swordsmanship and combat, only required various types of paper and the aura of the Undead for sustenance.
