Beast Taming: I'm Really Not a Cultivation Master

Chapter 217: Chapter 196: Drawing Down the Curtain

The sudden appearance of the Tai Chi Panda, which effortlessly intercepted the Two-Headed Evil Flood Dragon’s terrifying attack, caused the confidence of the ordinary Beast Masters watching from the sidelines to soar. They were ecstatic.

With a Saint Spirit Level Pet Beast like a Guardian God on the scene, they no longer had to worry about their safety at all.

The ordinary Beast Masters were all relieved to see this. Once at ease, they couldn’t help but turn their gazes toward the distant Two-Headed Evil Flood Dragon.

Without a doubt, they were all on the Tai Chi Panda’s side. They wanted to see how this Guardian God would thrash the evil beast in the sea.

Some Beast Masters even had stars in their eyes, their faces filled with adoration. They had already recognized the Tai Chi Panda and knew who its Beast Master was.

After all, it was a Saint Spirit Level Pet Beast. Even in Zhonghai City, the largest city in the entire Dongxia Federation, such beings were exceedingly rare.

An ordinary person might not know the Beast Master behind it, but for those with some status and background, this information was no secret.

Just as many of the ordinary Beast Masters were looking toward the distant sea level, the Two-Headed Evil Flood Dragon unleashed another extremely violent attack from that very spot.

Its two draconic heads plunged violently into the seawater. The next moment, a ball of light abruptly flared up from beneath the surface.

The ball of light exploded, and with a terrifying rumble, a colossal wave suddenly shot into the air.

The wave was over a hundred meters high. As it rose into the sky, it blotted out the sun, a truly terrifying sight.

”Damn!” Li Qian couldn’t help but curse when he saw this.

’What the hell is this!’

’My luck is just the worst!’

’In just a few short months, I’ve run into giant waves several times now. I’m starting to wonder if I’m cursed when it comes to waves.’

He had no time to complain further. With a terrifying, thunderous roar, the massive wave was already upon them.

Unlike the last time he faced a giant wave, Li Qian was clearly much calmer this time.

The giant wave crashed down, striking the Water Curtain Celestial Splendor protecting the city, just as expected.

BOOM!

The Water Curtain Celestial Splendor, cast by an Emperor-level Pet Beast at the very least, didn’t last long after contact with the giant wave. It shattered with a roar after only a few breaths’ time.

Li Qian wasn’t at all surprised by this outcome. After all, the Level difference was plain to see.

He had anticipated this, but he wasn’t worried.

The next moment, just as he had predicted, the Tai Chi Panda used another Skill.

A Tai Chi diagram suddenly materialized, spanning nearly the entire beach.

The Tai Chi diagram was like an insurmountable city wall, successfully blocking the terrifying, onrushing wave.

When the wave receded, the Two-Headed Evil Flood Dragon was nowhere to be seen on the ocean’s surface. Even the Azure Dragon Turtle, Sharp-beaked Howling Shark, and Cloud Whale Beast—which had been suppressed by the Natural Spirit, Plasma Throne, and Hai Qiya—had also vanished.

At this very moment, only the Natural Spirit, the Plasma Throne, and Hai Qiya were left lingering above the ocean’s surface.

At the top of the high tower, inside the main hall, Qiu Saint saw this and shook his head helplessly.

”If a Saint Spirit Level Pet Beast isn’t willing to fight head-on and is solely focused on escaping, it’s impossible to intercept,” he said with a sigh, adding a silent thought to himself.

’Of course, that’s based on my current strength.’

’If I could take another step forward and advance to the Legendary Level, it probably wouldn’t be difficult to keep these four wild Pet Beasts here.’

’However, if it knew I had reached the Saint Spirit Level, this Two-Headed Evil Flood Dragon probably wouldn’t have dared to appear here, let alone brazenly rescue the Sharp-beaked Howling Shark, Azure Dragon Turtle, and Cloud Whale Beast right under my nose.’

Yes, by this point, Qiu Saint understood perfectly.

Even Shi Yulian and the other four had already figured out the Two-Headed Evil Flood Dragon’s purpose for being here.

Whether it was the two beams of light fired from its mouths or the terrifying giant wave it subsequently raised, both were merely feints.

That creature’s true goal was to rescue the three Pet Beasts: the Sharp-beaked Howling Shark, the Azure Dragon Turtle, and the Cloud Whale Beast.

After all, they were three Emperor-level Pet Beasts. In any faction, they would be considered high-end combatants.

It was only natural that the Two-Headed Evil Flood Dragon would step in to save them.

The only regret was not having anticipated this. Otherwise, with more thorough preparations, they might have had a chance to capture one or two of them.

As for capturing all of them, not even Qiu Saint dared to entertain such a thought. At the very least, stopping the Saint Spirit Level Two-Headed Evil Flood Dragon when it was dead set on escaping was nigh impossible.

”Sigh, that thing sure is cunning. It tucked tail and ran the moment things looked bad.” Riding on Qizai and hovering in mid-air, Li Qian had also witnessed the entire event. He sighed with a hint of regret.

Without hesitation, he ordered Qizai to descend. The battle was over; continuing to hover in mid-air was too conspicuous.

After recalling Qizai to his Beast Taming Space, he continued walking deeper into the city, muttering to himself, ”Today was just too bizarre.”

”Oh well, it’s not like it has anything to do with a Karami like me anyway.”

Li Qian sensed that something was off, but he didn’t dwell on it.

Besides, if the sky falls, the tall ones will hold it up. It wasn’t his problem.

Moreover, he firmly believed in a simple truth: as long as his own strength was great enough, the mysteries of many things would eventually unveil themselves to him.

Therefore, the most pressing task was to increase his own power as quickly as possible.

At the top of the high tower, in the main hall, the ever-impatient Shi Yulian was the first to speak. ”What do we do? Should we give chase?”

Hearing this, the other four also turned to look at Qiu Saint, their leader, for an answer.

Qiu Saint gazed in the direction where the four wild Pet Beasts, led by the Two-Headed Evil Flood Dragon, had disappeared. He shook his head. ”Don’t bother. Even if we gave chase now, it’s already too late.”

He paused, then continued, ”Most importantly, as long as that Dimensional Rift in the Milo Trench doesn’t disappear, it’s meaningless no matter how many Emperor-level Extraordinary Creatures we eliminate.”

Inside the hall, the youngest among them, Ping Sheng, asked in a deferential tone, ”Then, about what happened today...”

Qiu Saint knew what he wanted to ask and shook his head again. ”There’s no need to hide anything. At this point, it’s impossible to hide it anyway.”

Indeed. So many ordinary citizens and tourists from all over the country had witnessed today’s events.

It would be impossible to cover it up completely. Of course, with the influence of the six of them, they could certainly reduce its impact and slow its spread.

But now that Qiu Saint had spoken, there was no longer any need for that.

With the departure of the four wild Pet Beasts led by the Two-Headed Evil Flood Dragon, the incident came to a close. Finally, Qiu Saint left them with one profound statement: ”The days of disaster are coming!”
