Monster Pet Evolution

“Awesome.” Gao Peng couldn’t help the smile on his face.

Such a dense air of death and bloodlust must’ve been built on the corpses of countless monsters. This place was a scene of carnage. The more monster corpses, the more meat essence he could extract, and the denser the air of death, the faster Dumby evolved. This kind of supersized battlefield was like Dumby’s paradise.

Right outside the square was a neat neighborhood. In this retreat were huge houses with open roofs. The houses were very big, but considering these monsters’ sizes, they would still be a little tight. They were merely places to sleep.

Along the way, Gao Peng met quite a few monsters and monster trainers. He even saw some mythical familiars.

“Gao Peng, that dog looks like my Sakhalin Husky! Look at those eyebrows, that nose, and those eyes. It’s the spitting image!” Goldie pointed at everything it saw like a child’s first time in the city. In the distance, a three-headed dog that was red all over and had long fur drooping down like a waterfall glanced at Goldie, then withdrew its gaze and walked away. Gao Peng also saw the monster Goldie pointed out. It was a Level-94 Hell’s Three-Headed Dog (Variant).

The monsters and familiars there were mostly Overlord-tier or above. If one wasn’t at least Overlord-tier, they were pretty much just there as cannon fodder. The abyss monsters who came from Abyss World were also at least Emperor-tier.

If someone wasn’t Emperor-tier, that person wasn’t even qualified to be cannon fodder. But even Emperor-tiers weren’t in a great position. Only those who were Overlord-tier or above could thrive on this battlefield.

“That must be the Carnage Chart that the old Bi Fang mentioned.” Gao Peng paused his steps. An enormous ranking chart hovered in the sky in this region. On the chart were portraits of monsters, some reckless, others growling. Each portrait was followed by lines of stats, like, “Quasi God-tier Kills: 156. Saint-tier Kills: 2,587.”

“Is that the top right now?” Gao Peng muttered to himself. These were the stats of the top-ranking monsters. The current first place was an incredibly handsome black Da Peng whose feathers shone with a dark gold luster.

On the Da Peng’s back floated a black sun and a black moon, as if it carried the planets on its shoulders.

[Monster Name]: Eternal Night Vulture

[Monster Grade]: Eternal/Eternal

[Monster Level]: Level 99

[Monster Attribute]: Dark

[Deification Part]: Eyes, wings, claws, beak, feathers, guts

[Monster Territory]: Nightfall Domain

[Monster Ability]: Lightning Speed Level 10, Divine Power Level 10, Dark Control Level 10, Light Element Immunity Level 10

[Monster Characteristic]: Dark Sun and Moon (Dark sun and moon that grow on its shoulders, condensed from the essence of the sun, moon, and power of darkness.

Passive Effect 1: When the dark sun and moon are damaged or dissolved, they can renew by absorbing the essence of the sun, moon, and power of darkness.

Passive Effect 2: The Eternal Night Vulture can incorporate the dark sun and moon into its attacks. They have both the elements of extreme heat and extreme cold. They can also be seen as the Eternal Night Vulture’s outer organs, but they are not negatively affected.)

Night Specter (When the Eternal Night Vulture is moving at night or in a dark environment, its actions are silent like a specter.

Passive Effect 1: Its speed increases at night or in dark environments.

Passive Effect 2: The noises it makes when moving around are absorbed in dark environments.

Hint: The commotion made by attacks won’t be absorbed.)

Nightfall (The Eternal Night Vulture’s natural gift of mastering darkness allows it to summon nightfall.

Active Effect 1: Once activated, the Eternal Night Vulture will summon nightfall. The environment within its effective radius will become dark. The size of the affected area depends on the Eternal Night Vulture’s strength.

Passive Effect 2: The nightfall summoned by the Eternal Night Vulture can be treated as elemental life, but it lacks self-awareness.

Passive Effect 3: During nightfall, the opponent’s sight and other senses will weaken greatly. If they are too different in strength from the Eternal Night Vulture, their six senses will be completely blocked.)

[Monster Description]: An Eternal-grade monster, it is extremely gifted. A tier promotion will not cause a grade drop. With an Eternal grade, the Eternal Night Vulture’s fighting capacity will not be reduced by any attack less than a precept. Injuries do not affect its combat capacity.

Gao Peng took a while to study this description before he figured out a new profile. This Eternal grade was a little like the “Hero Template” from games. All negative conditions below a rule couldn’t affect it.

With the damage to sight by Nightfall and the passive effects of Night Specter, the Eternal Night Vulture was like a fish in water. Furthermore, with the dark sun and moon adding to its strength, it was no surprise it could rank first on the Carnage Chart.

And the most abnormal thing was the passivity of the Eternal grade. Precepts were an exclusive ability of God-tier monsters, so Eternal grade was always at maximum capacity when facing opponents below God-tier.

According to the old Bi Fang, this Carnage Chart was written by a God-tier Grotto-Heaven Beast.

The Grotto-Heaven Beast’s body was a large eyeball that floated in space, but unlike other large eyeball monsters, the Grotto-Heaven Beast had a shell-like exterior. In dangerous situations, the exterior closed to protect the delicate body inside.

Every Grotto-Heaven Beast had a common interest—vigorous curiosity.

Their curiosity often led them to their deaths. This Grotto-Heaven Beast who had managed to reach God-tier was really one of the lucky few.

According to the old Bi Fang, a monster named the Three-Eyed Serpent hunted Grotto-Heaven Beasts for food. When Grotto-Heaven Beasts sensed danger, they withdrew into their shells. Their shells were very rigid and had a blurring effect. Three-Eyed Serpents couldn’t break through its shield.

In reality, Three-Eyed Serpents had no need to break the shells. In their long hunting experience, they’d learned an ability called lulling in which they could imitate voices full of temptation and imagination. When a Grotto-Heaven Beast heard this voice, it would be helpless to open its shell, seeking the source of the sound.

Then the Three-Eyed Serpent would worm itself into the Grotto-Heaven Beast’s shell and kill it in one bite.

Although Grotto-Heaven Beasts weren’t very bright, when God closes a door, He opens a window; Grotto-Heaven Beasts had outstanding senses of perception and sight, in addition to an exceptional memory.

“If this creature was paparazzi, it would be invincible.”
