Chapter 357: Extraordinary Beasts, Stop the Battle and Rest

Chu Feng had once heard the saying that the only way to repay a life-saving favor was to give oneself to someone. Of course, the saying only applied to those who were good-looking. As for those who were ugly, the most they could promise was that they would repay the favor in their next life and maybe give some monetary gratitude.
Hearing such a familiar opening sentence, Chu Feng looked at her calmly, waiting to see what the next sentence would be. Of course, women would only affect his fighting speed, so at most, he would only momentarily admire them, just like looking at a flower.
The puppeteer at the side, whose gender was hard to tell, frowned slightly as if he wanted to say something. Leng Qiu pursed her lips and said hesitantly, “I’m only one of the disciples of the Autumn Water Citadel, so I’m afraid that I won’t be able to give you much. After thinking about it, I’m afraid that only Elder Wanqing can help you.”
“I am quite acquainted with Elder Wanqing. If My Lord is willing, I’m willing to introduce you to her. Elder Wanqing had always been proficient in the path of Beastmasters. Although she doesn’t have much interaction with the other true God Beastmasters, she was very good at finding beasts. If you want to find some rare beasts, you can contact the elder through me.”
When Leng Qiu said the second sentence, the puppeteer standing next to her suddenly relaxed his knitted eyebrows, seeming to heave a sigh of relief.
At first, when Chu Feng heard Leng Qiu say “there’s nothing I can do to repay you” and “I won’t be able to give you much”, he thought that this matter would just pass by. He didn’t really care though. After all, he didn’t think too much about it when he saved her. But when the other party finished her sentence, his interest was piqued.
“Specifically what kinds of beasts are you referring to when you say uncommon beasts?”
Leng Qiu thought for a moment and slowly said, “For example, the dragon-headed horse with dragon scales and wings, nine-tailed foxes, mermen… and divine weapon beasts that can turn into god-level weapons.”
She seemed to have thought of something and added with an awkward smile, “It’s not a guarantee that these beasts can be found. It’s just an increase in the possibility of finding them. Speaking of which, Luo He, who has become an official of the Easter Temple, had received help from Elder Wanqing in finding his auspicious beast.”
Chu Feng raised his eyebrows and asked faintly, “These are not just the creatures in this universe, right?”
If there really were creatures like divine beasts in this universe, there was no reason for them not to reproduce as a race. Or perhaps, the three races of gods, demons, and celestials had the bloodlines of divine beasts and chaos gods and demons?
Leng Qiu paused. She wasn’t a beastmaster, so she didn’t know much about it. However, based on her past battles, Chu Feng’s words were probably right. She said uncertainly, “Perhaps they’re extraterrestrial sky demons?”
Hearing that, Chu Feng fell into deep thought. If they were extraterrestrial sky demons, they would indeed have the bloodline of a true God at birth.
However, weren’t only existences at the invincible true God level or above that could go to the front lines of the universe or even beyond the universe?
Could it be that Elder Wanqing was a God-Emperor Beastmaster? Chu Feng’s heart moved, and he asked, “Do you know how senior Luo He found his auspicious beast?”
Leng Qiu frowned slightly and shook her head, “I don’t.”
Chu Feng wasn’t disappointed by this. It seemed that he should find an opportunity to ask about it in the future. Although no one set a rule on how many beasts one should have, most beastmasters wouldn’t reject having more. After all, the more beasts there were, the stronger the Beastmaster’s individual combat strength would be. Strength was probably the most irresistible thing in the world.
Chu Feng had once seen an exception among Beastmasters in the illusory world, though. That was a mysterious, unaffiliated beastmaster. No one knew where he came from. All they knew was that he only had a wooden sword.
At first, some thought that this invincible expert was cultivating another system, but later, it was said that someone had seen his beast space. Moreover, that wooden sword had even transformed into human form!
According to Chu Feng’s knowledge, most beasts would maintain their own forms and wouldn’t have the idea of cultivating a human body. Just like how humans wouldn’t inexplicably want to be beasts, under normal circumstances, beasts weren’t interested in being humans.
There were a few exceptions, though, such as the Mythical Tree becoming Lila. But in fact, this could also be investigated in detail.
After the Mythical Tree transformed into a human, the most obvious benefit was the ability for better communication. Although trees could also communicate, the Mythical Tree had to take root in the beast space, which made communication and fighting still somewhat inconvenient.
Beasts like the Wild Bear who specialized in the various attributes of the body could actually transform into humans as well. However, the Wild Bear didn’t have such thoughts. It was more used to being a bear. Other than that, the Mirage Butterfly could also transform into a human.
Of course, this kind of human-beast transformation was definitely different from the strange mutation caused by the Bloody Pagoda.
For now, it seemed that the Bloody Pagoda was trying to raise a king. It thought of all sorts of ways to transform all outsiders and even the original creatures in the pagoda into nutrients for the hatching of the evil spirits and food for the awakened evil spirits.
Although Chu Feng had obtained the beast inheritance from the pagoda that had indeed been effective in speeding up the beasts’ progress in skill-learning, if one were to really talk about his attitude towards the Bloody Pagoda, he was definitely on guard and alert. The Bloody Pagoda that had appeared in the sky region this time would definitely be more difficult and terrifying than the previous one.
After all, neither Richardson nor Cena had said that they had to clear so many stages in the Bloody Pagoda.
According to Cena, it should have only been endless blood souls, four-directional guardian beasts, and the revival of evil spirits. But now, they had experienced the faction battle of whether to stop or help the revival of evil spirits, the mutants after the four-directional guardian beasts died and the Hell of judgment that they were currently experiencing. All of these were not in the “original” stages.
Currently, the pagoda’s moves, no matter which one it was, were still unable to affect Chu Feng much. However, the others, even the God King officials of the Eastern Temple, were probably having a hard time dealing with them. It was inevitable that they would be at their limits.
On the surface, Chu Feng still seemed to be at the peak of the immortal level. However, as he continued to accumulate and compress his strength and foundation, and with the help of the beast-taming inheritance, he now even had the combat power of a God Venerable.
Of course, considering various reasons, he couldn’t break through so quickly.
With his current foundation, unless he broke past the immoral level, his strength wouldn’t increase too much in the short term.
It didn’t matter, though. His current realm was enough for the time being. As for the evil spirits that would hatch later, he guessed that the Eastern Temple would probably make a move then.
Chu Feng gathered his thoughts and said to Leng Qiu, “I’m very interested in the uncommon beasts you’re talking about. Do leave me your contact.”
If it was someone else who wanted her contact, Leng Qiu couldn’t help but wonder what the other party was up to no matter how cold she was on the surface. However, the situation was completely different when it came to her savior. Even if her savior didn’t say anything, she would still take the initiative to ask.
After the two of them finished exchanging contacts, all the powerful ghosts in this Hell had been wiped out. The blood souls and the mutants were also wiped out.
Lila frowned and took away all the resources in Yama’s palace. She sighed and said, “It’s better than nothing.”
As for those man-eating flowers and fruits, and the derivatives of mountains of corpses and seas of blood… They were all just ignored. With no other creatures here to disturb them, all the people who entered the pagoda sat in the void with their eyes closed to rest.
Although no one said anything, those who had entered the tower now had zero faith in the Bloody Pagoda. Perhaps, once they left this place, there would be a fierce battle waiting for them.
