Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Infinitely - Chapter 541

Chapter 541: Chapter 536: The Insane Green Dragon

Watching the caterpillar flying excitedly in the air, Bai Qi also felt joyous.

Without the caterpillar’s Dream Eater skill, they might have ended up in a hard fight again. But now, it was a perfect ending.

With that thought, Bai Qi immediately called the caterpillar over and began to inspect its current data.

[Name]: Great Sun Dragon Cicada (Epsilon)

[Nature]: Day, Dragon, Dreamland

[Bloodline Level]: Low-level King

[Growth Level]: Six-Stage Level 1

[Skills]: Great Sun Force Field (Transcendence Level－Perfect), Dream Eater (Transcendence Level－Perfect), Absolute Control (Super Level－Perfect), Dream Weaver (Transcendent Skill-Proficient), Dragon Sleep (Super Level-Perfect), Jade Imprint (Super Level- Skilled), Eye of Nightmare (Transcendence Level-Beginner)

[Energy Value]: 342E1100W

[Condition]: Evolvable

…

[Skill Name]: Eye of Nightmare

[Skill Level]: Transcendence Level

[Skill Effect]: Don’t try to hide your fear, because no one can hide from the gaze of these eyes.

Remark: After using the Eye of Nightmare, you can harness the enemy’s fear energy to form nightmare creatures, causing direct damage to the enemy’s spirit.

…

“Sure enough, it uses fear to form battle power and can directly damage the spirit, it’s worthy of being a Transcendent Skill!”

Bai Qi’s eyes shone at the sight, with the Eye of Nightmare paired with the Dream Eater, the caterpillar’s dreaming fighting power was probably not weaker than the Great Sun Force Field.

By using the Eye of Nightmare to harness the enemy’s fear, inflict enough damage on the enemy, then use Dream Eater to devour this nightmare, killing two birds with one stone.

In this way, caterpillars could definitely grow into nightmare lords.

No, what if the caterpillar could master dreamlike power that can enhance a person’s state like the Jade Dream, wouldn’t it be a lord of dreamworld then?

Thinking about this, Bai Qi became even more excited and has started planning the caterpillar’s enhancement route.

At this time, Nicholas came over with a serious look and said, “Nightmare power…Bai Qi, you’d better be cautious, this power is very dangerous in my dragon memory.”

“What’s wrong? Does this skill have side effects?”

Bai Qi was startled upon hearing this. Indeed, this skill was clearly OP and there might be some hidden danger.

“It can be considered a side effect, although I haven’t seen it with my own eyes, but my dragon’s memory has similar instances.”

Nicholas took a deep look at the caterpillar and said, “There was once a green dragon that seemed to go insane because of the Nightmare Power.”

“Insane?”

Bai Qi frowned, the joy of just gaining a powerful skill suddenly disappeared, and Nicholas started the story.

“I only knew about this recently because my bloodline improved due to the Jade Dream.”

Nicholas paused and said, “We, the green dragons, control the power of nature and the powerful power of Dreamland, due to the Jade Dream.”

Bai Qi nodded. In his view, the Jade power was actually a combination of the power of nature and the power of Dreamland.

“For this reason, every green dragon starts exploring the Jade Dream as soon as they are born to strengthen their own power.”

“Originally, the reproduction and survival of the green dragons were not a problem because of the protection of the Jade Dream. But since a green dragon accidentally mastered the Nightmare Power and then went insane, the green dragons seemed to start disappearing.”

At this point, Nicholas’s expression became serious, “I suspect, maybe it was because of the Nightmare Power, that caused the gradual extinction of the green dragons.”

“The green dragons disappeared because of this?”

Bai Qi was taken aback and then looked at the caterpillar seriously, said:

“Epsilon, unless necessary, don’t use the Eye of Nightmare in the future.”

“I understand.”

The caterpillar nodded repeatedly. Nicholas definitely wouldn’t harm him, and if the green dragons, the children of the Dreamland, couldn’t handle it, he was likely even less equipped.

What if one day he also went insane and tried to harm the leader, Alpha would absolutely be the first to eliminate him.

Whew, scary!

Thinking of this, the caterpillar immediately activated the Great Sun Force Field. The dazzling sunlight instantly dispelled the darkness, and even some dark thoughts that had originally arisen due to using the Eye of Nightmare suddenly dissipated.

Phew~ It is a bit influential indeed, I even doubted Alpha myself.

Normally, Alpha and the leader would definitely save him first, just like they saved Alpha and the others.

The caterpillar let out a long sigh of relief and no longer dared to entertain the thought of using the Eye of Nightmare.

“But my memory also functions vaguely, the disappearance of green dragons might also be due to other reasons.”

Seeing Bai Qi sealing the caterpillar’s powerful skill because of his words, Nicholas felt embarrassed and said, “Looking at this secret realm, everything is normal, maybe I’m overthinking.”

“Hmm, doesn’t hurt to be on the safe side.”

Bai Qi nodded, and after the Nightmare was annihilated, the environment of the Dream Demon Beast Secret Realm once again became vibrantly colourful, afterwards, despite being empty, it also gave a feeling of relief.

With this in mind, Bai Qi actively exited the dreamland. Then, with a slight shift in his thoughts, the Dream Demon Beast Secret Realm was absorbed and integrated into the Evolution Egg.

However, it did not exist independently as Bai Qi had imagined, but was directly incorporated into the Wilderness Secret Realm.

“Perfect. Epsilon is the only one living there right now anyway, which frees up a slot for me.”

Satisfied with the result, Bai Qi nodded. This meant that there was still one empty slot out of the six secret realms, giving him more latitude in his choices.

“Time Secret Realm, Holy Light Secret Realm, Dream Demon Beast Secret Realm, Ice Field Secret Realm counts as half, with this, only Alpha and Husky don’t have suitable secret realms yet.”

Bai Qi stroked his chin, and the scene of the Twilight Tomb unconsciously flashed through his mind.

It would be nice if he could acquire the Twilight Tomb.

…

After helping Bai Qi solve the problem of the Dream Demon Beast Secret Realm, Nicholas once again took time out to deal with the backlog of Jade series products on the production line, then returned to the Jade Dreamland.

As for Bai Qi, he didn’t stop. Instead, he started researching the Dream Battle System.

According to Bai Qi’s requirements, the equipment used for the Dream Battle System needed to be regularly sent back to the Super God Evolution Research Institute for inspection to ensure there were no accidents.

Of course, the main purpose was to check the core inside, the Secret Realm Ring, as the parasitic fungus needed to absorb the dreamland inside to perfect the Virtual Soul.

The time was about right for the Dreamland System to be sent back for inspection.

Upon arriving at the Dream Battle Team, Bai Qi saw a group of researchers checking the condition of the experimental subjects one by one, occasionally using Dream-gazing Glasses to check their condition.

“Although it won’t directly affect the spirit, if failure occurs too often, nightmares may easily arise.”

In charge of the Dream Battle System was Bai Qi’s mother, Luo Zhu. Although it seemed a bit far off, dreaming itself is a biological neural response, so it made sense for Luo Zhu to be the one in charge.

“When this batch of experiments ends, let them recover in the Jade Dream. Having too many nightmares can also affect physical health.”

Luo Zhu reminded her assistant a few times, then spotted Bai Qi standing at the door. She immediately ran over and hugged him.

“My precious son, what brings you here? Have you come to visit your mom?”

“Ah, I… Yes! Absolutely came to see you, Mom!”

A strong survival instinct made Bai Qi revise his words quickly, and Luo Zhu apparently was pleased with Bai Qi’s answer. She then took Bai Qi on a tour of the place.

“The Dream Battle System is effective. Both the Association and the military are beginning to slowly adopt this assessment method. The military originally wanted to use it for training, but we refused as per your request.”

Luo Zhu said, “However, the military hopes we can speed up the deployment of a large-scale war simulation system, the sooner the better.”

“A large-scale war simulation system?”

Upon hearing the words, Bai Qi immediately recalled what Luo Xiang had previously told him and quickly grasped the meaning.

The military is surely intensifying their preparations.

“I got it. I’ll start research on it soon.”

Bai Qi nodded slightly. With the Dream Demon Beast Secret Realm broken, and sufficiently extensive, all he needed to do next was research a method to remotely enter, similar to the Jade Imprint.

This way, the parasitic fungus could accord without the hassle of absorbing dreams one by one in the future.

Bai Qi quickly outlined the research plan for the future and glanced at the assistant who was busy handling matters on the side. “Mom, you guys seem to be running into some issues?”

“Indeed.”

Luo Zhu nodded and informed Bai Qi of what they had discovered.

“Nightmares? What a coincidence.”

Upon hearing this, Bai Qi was startled. He then thought of summoning the parasitic fungus to solve the problem, but considering the side effects of Eye of Nightmare, Bai Qi became hesitant.

Although the Dream Eater could solve the problem of nightmares, there was no guarantee that consuming too many nightmares wouldn’t affect the Eye of Nightmare nearby.

If the parasitic fungus went crazy because of this, the deal would be a big loss.

Never mind. Before finding a method that could ensure the nullification of the effects of Nightmare Power, it was better not to rush into things.

In due time, he needed to remind the parasitic fungus to avoid nightmares when absorbing dreams.

Besides, treating the effects of nightmares doesn’t have to be so complicated.

“If the nightmares are caused by frequent defeats, couldn’t a psychologist or the like be consulted? This should be a psychological issue, right?”

Bai Qi looked at Luo Zhu and shared his thoughts.

“Definitely, but the effect of the Dream Battle System is too realistic. Therefore, the conditions of these people are somewhat similar to post-traumatic stress disorder. Regular psychologists are useless.”

Luo Zhu shook her head, saying, “The Association has already begun looking for pet beasts with the power to Purify the spirit. The results should be out soon.”

“Rumor has it that Headquarters might send the Ice Spirit Jade Rabbit that you found. Its power can also be effective in this area.”

“A pet beast with the power to Purify the spirit? The Ice Spirit Jade Rabbit is indeed the right prescription.”

Upon hearing this, Bai Qi slightly nodded and instinctively thought of something, “However, I think I can find one right now, how about giving it a try first?”
