Chapter 456: Chapter 451: Deceiving Legendary Creatures (New Year’s Eve Special, Wishing Everyone a Happy New Year)_2
[Skill Name]: Frost of Time
[Skill Level]: ???
[Skill Description]: The extreme cold, where frost covers, time also stops.
…
“Is this, a temporal department skill?!”
Bai Qi’s eyes widened round with shock. No wonder Alpha’s attacks couldn’t harm the Ice Demon Rabbit at all, and they couldn’t even get close. So it was because it had frozen time.
With this thought, Bai Qi’s gaze at the Ice Spirit Jade Rabbit suddenly changed.
The Ice Demon Rabbit was the form taken by the Ice Spirit Jade Rabbit after corruption, but the skills should not be much different. That is to say, he could probably obtain time-related materials from the Ice Spirit Jade Rabbit?
Suddenly Bai Qi felt like contacting Nicholas for help.
No, perhaps he should ask his mentor for help. That would be safer.
“Um, I’m sorry, Frost of Time is not my skill.”
Noticing the change in Bai Qi, the Ice Spirit Jade Rabbit hastened to explain.
“Although both are ice attributes, I don’t have that kind of skill. It should belong to the original ferocious beasts in this secret realm.”
Hearing the Ice Spirit Jade Rabbit’s explanation, Bai Qi still had some doubts, but after thinking about the information Schuck just presented, he finally begrudgingly gave up that idea.
He thought he could directly find time-related materials and evolve Delta. Turns out he was overthinking.
Blub blub.
(Master, Delta seems a bit off.)
Just then, Delta gently bumped Bai Qi.
“Something is off? Were you injured before?”
The words made Bai Qi’s heart tighten. Earlier, in order to deal with the Ice Demon Rabbit, he had funneled all the energy of his five pets into Delta to drive the power of the void. Was it possible that it had caused damage to Delta?
Blub blub.
(Not an injury, my Delta’s Survival of the Fittest skill seems a bit off.)
Delta raised its claw, and it was uncontrollably switching between various forms.
There were stored ancient species forms, as well as forms it had evolved into before, none of which could be stably maintained.
“Skill loss of control?”
Bai Qi slightly frowned. Although Delta’s strongest skill was now Disciple of the Void, Survival of the Fittest was still its main combat power. If there were problems with this, Bai Qi would be really upset.
With this thought, Bai Qi immediately laid his hand on Delta, checking its condition.

[Energy Value]: 16E1100W
[Condition]: Evolvable
…
“Survival of the Fittest has awakened?”
Seeing this, Bai Qi realized, and quietly heaved a sigh of relief. Although he didn’t know why the awakening caused Delta’s evolution control to lose control, as long as it was awakened, the problem could be solved.
Saying so, Bai Qi once again concentrated his spiritual power on Survival of the Fittest. A complete awakening scheme appeared in his mind.
[Skill Name]: Survival of the Fittest
[Skill Level]: Super
[Skill Description]: Special department skill, evolved to deal with survival of the fittest and natural selection. It can actively change forms according to external conditions and retain some forms.
Note: Remaining storage count: 0.
[Skill Upgrade]: ??? (Transcendent Level): ???
Awakening plan: Integrate time-related materials.
…
Seeing the awakening scheme under Survival of the Fittest, Bai Qi finally understood.
It’s pseudo-awakened because of Frost of Time, and it’s even time-attribute.
In this case, he really must collect time-related materials.
“Don’t worry, there’s a solution.”
Bai Qi patted Delta’s head to assure it, then looked at the Ice Spirit Jade Rabbit and asked, “So, have I passed the sixth challenge now?”
“That should do it.”
The Ice Spirit Jade Rabbit nodded, handing a teleportation rune stone to Bai Qi and said, “But I suggest you not go down right now. Even though my memory is somewhat fuzzy, the creature at the seventh level is probably not something you can handle.”
Unless that entity intervened.
“Alright, thank you.”
Bai Qi put the teleportation rune stone away and nodded.
Even if the Ice Spirit Jade Rabbit hadn’t warned him, he probably wouldn’t have ventured down further in such a short period. He simply wanted to secure the teleportation rune stone for the sixth level.
The master had only cleared the first six levels; who knows what horrifying entities lurked within the shadowy depths beyond? One must prioritize safety.
“I wonder how long I’ve slept. Has Cha left yet?”
Bai Qi put away the rune stone, planning to search for Bai Qiucha at the fifth level.
“Are you planning to leave? Let’s go together then.”
The Ice Spirit Jade Rabbit called out to stop Bai Qi and asked.
“You’re leaving too? Aren’t you remaining to patrol the sixth level?”
Bai Qi queried, puzzled.
“I came here originally to cleanse the sixth level of contamination. Now that the pollution is gone, it’s only natural I leave.”
Staying around for a moment longer might well result in me ending up in a stew pot.
The Ice Spirit Jade Rabbit glanced at the Cowskin Snake, which had again begun bickering with Beta, silently adding the last thought.
“Makes sense.”
Bai Qi chuckled, “How about this, shall I introduce you to a nice place? They absolutely welcome legendary creatures.”
He wouldn’t let an opportunity to entice the Ice Spirit Jade Rabbit slip by, only having missed the Fire Rock Demon Tiger.
“Really?”
The Ice Spirit Jade Rabbit eyed Bai Qi skeptically and asked.
“You’re not talking about following you, are you?”
Was there something wrong with following me?
Bai Qi muttered a complaint inwardly, replying, “Rest assured, it’s the Federation… oh you don’t know it, it’s one of the most prominent human forces – the Beast Master Association. There are many creatures like you there.”
“Good.”
The Ice Spirit Jade Rabbit nodded, saying, “Then, I’m willing to go with you.”
“Great, I’ll go and find my partner, then we can go back together!”
Bai Qi grinned, having just swindled a legendary creature into returning with him, surely the Association president, Zhao, should show some gratitude, right?
Perhaps with a set of time-based materials?
…
Gusu City.
As today was New Year’s Eve, the entire research staff at the Super God Evolution Research Institute, including Bai Yan and Luo Zhu, had completed their work early and packed away their things, preparing to go home.
They had been busy for the better part of the year and had achieved some promising results. Of course, they had to head home early to usher in the new year.
“I wonder why our son hasn’t returned yet. It’s nearly dark now. Nothing bad could have happened, right?”
Luo Zhu gazed anxiously at the setting sun to the west.
“He should be fine. This isn’t Bai Qi’s first trip to the Twilight Tomb.”
Bai Yan had Luo Zhu in his arms and chuckled, “Our son isn’t as delicate as you think.”
Bai Yan was fully aware of Bai Qi’s trip to the Elemental World. Even though it was a close call, Bai Yan did not curtail Bai Qi’s activities because of that.
Despite the Federation enjoying over twenty years of peace, the Ferocious Beast Tribe was still a prominent issue. Offering undue protection wouldn’t benefit Bai Qi’s future at all.
“Right.”
Luo Zhu nodded, remembering Bai Qi’s status as a Sixth Stage Beast Trainer, gradually feeling a sense of ease.
“Huh, is it snowing?”
Bai Yan walked by the window. Suddenly, a flurry of thick, snowy feathers began pouring from the Gusu city sky, swiftly turning the world into a winter wonderland.
“The snowfall is so timely, it seems we’re in for a good year.”
Luo Zhu rested on Bai Yan, opening the window to catch a snowflake. Suddenly she felt very uplifted.
“That should be the case.”
Bai Yan smiled faintly, watching the snowfall intensify outside, suddenly overwhelmed by an elusive sense of leisure he hadn’t experienced in a long time.
It had been eons since he’d relaxed like this year.
“Honey, look at that thing flying in the sky. Doesn’t it look like a rabbit?”
“Hmm, it does seem to be flying towards us.”
