Free Web NovelChapter 588: Chapter 588: Taming the Illusionary Flower Beast
"That’s right, this should be a newborn Illusionary Flower Beast, so I’m trying to tame it a bit," Xu Yi explained, even though he had been trying for two days and nights, he still hadn’t given up.
"Can it really be tamed?" Lu Ke widened her eyes, feeling somewhat incredulous.
To be aware, the effect of the Illusionary Flower Beast was super strong; she only drank a little bit and leveled up.
If she consumed more, she felt she could level up multiple levels.
If Xu Yi could really tame it, the benefits would be enormous.
"As long as it’s an animal, as long as it has a brain, and has brainwaves, theoretically it can be tamed. However, the success rate isn’t high," Xu Yi looked at the Illusionary Flower Beast, unsure if he could actually tame it.
"Then go ahead and tame it, I’ll go train, I won’t disturb you." Lu Ke hoped Xu Yi could tame the Illusionary Flower Beast; it would benefit not only Xu Yi but also her and the other team members significantly.
"Go hunt some level 5 peak Fierce Beasts, don’t need to kill them completely. I want to try taming it during its feeding process," Xu Yi told Lu Ke, as he had long wanted to do this but couldn’t leave because Lu Ke hadn’t woken up.
Lu Ke nodded and quickly said, "Okay, I’m going now."
Xu Yi was a bit worried and quickly added, "Return immediately if you encounter a level 6 Fierce Beast, do not engage. Although you’re already infinitely close to level 6, there’s still a big gap between you and a true level 6 Fierce Beast."
"Got it, I’ll take care of myself," Lu Ke said as she flew away.
Infinitely close to level 6?
Lu Ke originally thought she had only broken through to level 5 peak. But Xu Yi said she was infinitely close to level 6, which seemed to be another level beyond level 5 peak.
After all, only Xu Yi had broken through level 6 and knew what the situation was before the breakthrough.
After Lu Ke left, Xu Yi continued to tame.
Anyway, he was determined to tackle this Illusionary Flower Beast.
Half an hour later, Lu Ke returned with a captured level 5 peak Fierce Beast.
The peak Fierce Beast wasn’t dead, just had its bones shattered by Lu Ke.
Fortunately, the distance wasn’t too far, otherwise Lu Ke wouldn’t have been able to carry it back.
Not because it was so heavy, but because the Fierce Beast had been using telekinesis to attack Lu Ke.
"Good job, one should be enough; you should train to quickly break through to level 6. Once I’ve tamed it, I’ll move on to the next person," Xu Yi said, moving the Fierce Beast next to the Illusionary Flower Beast.
The Illusionary Flower Beast sensed it and immediately shot its tendrils toward the Fierce Beast.
Currently, the Illusionary Flower Beast’s tendrils were short, only about one meter in length.
If Xu Yi hadn’t moved it close, the tendrils wouldn’t have reached the Fierce Beast.
Xu Yi enveloped the Illusionary Flower Beast with spiritual power to protect it from the telekinesis attack of the Fierce Beast.
Right now, the Illusionary Flower Beast couldn’t release the fragrance that caused creatures to hallucinate.
All its appendages pierced into the Fierce Beast’s body, and the Illusionary Flower Beast emitted sounds, probably sounds of happiness.
It’s the first time Xu Yi realized that the Illusionary Flower Beast could make sounds, which reinforced his determination to tame it.
After the tendrils pierced into the Fierce Beast’s body, Xu Yi felt the Illusionary Flower Beast’s brainwaves become extremely active.
Tame!
Xu Yi began using taming skills repeatedly.
Lu Ke didn’t really train after returning to the tent; instead, she kept watching Xu Yi.
She wanted to know whether Xu Yi could actually tame the Illusionary Flower Beast.
The Fierce Beast’s body quickly shriveled and dried up.
Seeing the Fierce Beast reduced to just its skeleton and skin, Lu Ke grew more anxious.
Suddenly, Xu Yi stood up.
"It’s done; I’ve really tamed it!"
Xu Yi excitedly said, surprised he had actually succeeded.
The Illusionary Flower Beast, he actually tamed an Illusionary Flower Beast!
After absorbing the Fierce Beast, the Illusionary Flower Beast began to float.
Xu Yi noticed its beast body had grown slightly larger.
Moreover, its tendrils had extracted the Fierce Beast’s Brain Crystal, tightly wrapping around it with its tendrils.
Xu Yi was curious whether the Illusionary Flower Beast could absorb the Fierce Beast’s Brain Crystal.
If it could, that would be impressive.
The Illusionary Flower Beast extended some tendrils to touch Xu Yi before its beast body approached him.
"So, you have eyes too, six black spots; if you don’t pay attention, you might not notice them," Xu Yi said with some surprise.
Two of them were on its short antennae.
"From now on, I’ll call you Snail," Xu Yi said, giving it a name based on the appearance of its antennae.
Because Xu Yi also thought of Jay Chou’s song titled ’Snail’.
Therefore, he was satisfied with this name.
"Xu Yi, you really tamed it?" Lu Ke ran to Xu Yi’s side, asking happily.
Xu Yi grinned at Lu Ke, feeling somewhat proud, "Yes, smoothly tamed."
"Come, Snail, shake hands with Lu Ke," Xu Yi said, using spiritual power to guide the Snail.
Lu Ke smiled slightly, extending her hand, saying, "Hello, Snail, welcome to join our team."
The tendrils touched Lu Ke and even swept a few times in her palm.
"Xu Yi, why is there no scent at all?" Lu Ke came closer, sniffed, and indeed found no odor.
Actually, it’s not that the Snail is odorless; Lu Ke was still wearing the Life Support System given by Xu Yi. This system filters out all harmful gases, naturally including the fragrance of the Illusionary Flower Beast.
After absorbing that Fierce Beast, Snail started emitting a scent.
However, the scent was still faint, not affecting Xu Yi for now.
Xu Yi also approached a bit to smell it.
The Snail then extended a tendril toward Xu Yi.
This tendril was different; it was extremely smooth and somewhat transparent.
Then, it pierced into Xu Yi’s hand.
Xu Yi immediately felt liquid entering his body.
He thought, the Snail probably wouldn’t harm him, so he let the liquid enter his body.
Nevertheless, his spiritual power continued to track the liquid.
Xu Yi believed this might be a ’vaccine,’ injected into his body so that he wouldn’t be affected by the Snail’s fragrance in the future.
If that’s true, then the Illusionary Flower Beast would be the best Guardian God for the camp.
After all, Fierce Beasts unaffected by its fragrance, like Lightning, are still rare.
"Snail, give Lu Ke a shot too," Xu Yi said, pulling Lu Ke’s hand over.
Then, the tendril pierced into Lu Ke’s hand, injecting her as well.
"Xu Yi, does getting jabbed by Snail mean you won’t experience hallucinations from its fragrance in the future?" Lu Ke thought of this possibility, asking it aloud.
Xu Yi nodded, "Quite possible, but for now, it’s still too small; even its flower body hasn’t opened yet."
Saying this, Xu Yi observed Snail’s flower body, still in a bud state.
