Chapter 365: The Honey Trap from the Seven Islands

In the Qi Islands region, on Hoshino Island, in Bonfire Village, there was an ordinary village.

Within the village, there were only three professional Beast Tamers in total, and the highest level among them was just a Mid-level Beast Tamer.

Such a village, even when faced with the invasion of a Commander-level ferocious beast, would quickly become ruins without external assistance.

But today, a super ferocious beast, standing above Transcendents, Commanders, Monarchs, and even Overlords, had descended upon this place.

"Meow~ Found it."

Standing on the roof, a creature with a wedge-shaped head and darkish eyelids covering azure eyes, swung its long, fluffy tail idly, calling out to someone.

At the same time, its gaze continuously scanned the altar in the abandoned area of the village.

"The Emperor Kong Altar is found, but it looks so dilapidated, who knows if it can still be used."

"Found it? Double happiness." Another figure quickly emerged on the rooftop.

He sat on the house and said, "By the way, Teacher Cat, I've also figured out the origin of that duck just now."

Jewel Cat turned its head: "Ah?"

"What." It asked with interest, "So, can I eat it?"

Shi Yu chuckled: "Its past life was a demigod ruler of the Abyss Sea, the embodiment of pollution and radiation. Are you sure you want to eat it?"

"Having diarrhea is fine, but I'm afraid you'll mutate into an Abyss Demon Cat."

"What!!!?" Jewel Cat exclaimed, revealing a shocked expression.

Wait... The, the Abyss Sea Demigod Ruler??!!

What a joke!!!

It widened its jewel eyes, looking at Shi Yu.

However, how did you come up with such a low-level name like Abyss Demon Cat?

"Not kidding."

"I was thinking, if I can apply for a large batch of cultivation resources with the Sea Sprite, how much can I apply for by modifying this duck..."

"Environmental Protection Department Shi Yu, Su Su, Guardian deity Ying, after untold hardships and several life-and-death crises, subdued the boss of the Abyss Sea... This is a great start for the Environmental Protection Department." Shi Yu muttered.

The performance is better than the other thirteen divisions!

A promotion and a raise aren't excessive, right?

"Is there anything for me?" Jewel Cat was stunned, revealing an expression that you're very on the ball.

"Forget it, let's take a look at this egg first." Shi Yu took out the Starry Sky Pet Egg from his backhand.

His gaze turned to the Emperor Kong ruins found by Jewel Cat.

"Wait a minute, tell me about the duck first!" Jewel Cat was furious, don't talk halfway, you cliffhanger! What exactly is going on!

"Uh." Shi Yu scratched his cheek.

"Say it."

Shi Yu sighed and told Jewel Cat about the "Reincarnation Fruit".

Shi Yu was actually unwilling to tell Jewel Cat about the "Reincarnation Fruit", the reason was very simple...

Sure enough, as soon as Shi Yu finished speaking, Jewel Cat's eyes lit up.

It instantly forgot all about the Abyss Demon Duck and said, "You said, I'm so powerful, could my previous life have been a demigod empress, also a Totem King, or even, my previous life left me many precious treasures..."

Jewel Cat felt that the possibility was very high.

After all, it was too special as a Jewel Cat.

Other Jewel Cats can only use one jewel to evolve, and can only evolve once, while it can use many jewels without limit to continuously evolve. No matter how you look at it, it is very Unscientific.

Even if it's a mutation, there must be a reason. Being a big shot in a previous life is one possibility.

Jewel Cat revealed a radiant gaze, feeling that its path to demigodhood was in this Reincarnation Fruit.

"No..." Shi Yu said, "I'm afraid you were also a villain in your previous life. If you can't control yourself after eating the Reincarnation Fruit, I'll be screwed..."

Jewel Cat: "Give me one, give me one, I can control myself! Don't you believe in my will?"

Shi Yu shook his head frantically, very quickly, yes, I don't believe it!

People who reincarnate as demigods all have Overlord wills, but you...

Shi Yu said, "Wait until I become a Legend Beast Tamer, then I can suppress the totem with a backhand."

Jewel Cat: ???

You still want to suppress me?

……

……

The Emperor Kong ruins, to be precise, the edge of a dilapidated altar.

After Jewel Cat isolated a large area from sensing this place, Shi Yu came here with the egg.

According to the parchment scroll, as long as the Starry Sky Egg is placed in the groove of the altar, the ruins formation will be automatically activated, allowing the egg to absorb starlight and accumulate nourishment for hatching.

Shi Yu compared the altar, took a deep breath, and placed the Starry Sky Pet Egg on it -

According to the description, the normal reaction is that when the pet egg absorbs the power of the stars, a faint halo will spread out. The absorption process will last for 24 to 48 hours. After absorbing enough specific nutrients, the light will dim and stop absorbing.

So, after putting the pet egg on it, Shi Yu was very nervous, fearing that the altar was broken and the egg would not light up, or that the egg had already become a bad egg and could not absorb normally, after all... it had been so long.

Click.

Shi Yu and the Jewel Cat next to him stopped breathing, nervously watching the Starry Sky Pet Egg.

1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds...

After a few seconds -

The white-based purple-patterned pet egg directly emitted a faint halo!

White and purple intertwined!!!

"It can be used!" Seeing this, Shi Yu was overjoyed, his expression overflowing with joy.

"Comfortable, comfortable."

Jewel Cat, seeing this, said, "I mean, is there a possibility that three altars can be used, and the last one cannot be used, causing the egg's hatching progress to be stuck at 3/4, unable to hatch, turning into a hairy egg. I don't like hairy eggs."

Shi Yu: "..."

Is this a normal cat's concern?

…………

The Starry Sky Pet Egg successfully absorbed the first special stellar power!!

Shi Yu's mood continued to be pleasant.

Hatching an egg, without knowing what will hatch from it, is indeed more anticipated than knowing in advance.

While waiting for the Starry Sky Pet Egg to absorb nutrients, Shi Yu was not idle. He and Jewel Cat began to study the platypus together.

Currently, the platypus's two skills, Water Flow Blade and Critical Strike, are both at Perfect proficiency or higher, approaching Divine proficiency, and their levels are very high.

In comparison, the Mechanical Tyrannosaurus's skills are relatively weak, all at entry-level proficiency.

In addition, the platypus can use Overlord will, no wonder the Tyrannosaurus is being suppressed by the Transcendent race platypus. If it weren't for the relatively strong race, it might have knelt down quickly.

Today, Duckie joined the team for a rare occasion. Shi Yu and Su Su sent it a greeting gift.

"Purification Memory Droplet".

It can help the platypus learn, master, and improve the Purification skill. After learning it, it can purify itself.

On Team One's side, Shi Yu was currently powerless. The temporary addition of Frosty Heavenly Chill hadn't recovered yet. To continue improving Wormie and the others, he might have to wait a day.

……

Rainbow Sky Island.

Shi Yu's quiet departure did not mean the end of the Champion Road challenge.

Here, a new round of battles began.

The next day, Dong Huang's Ji Feng followed suit.

Ji Feng's strength was undoubtedly the strongest among the Dong Huang exchange group this time, apart from the few Legends and Shi Yu. His appearance also made the Qi Islands grumble one after another.

He also swept through the first few levels, as fiercely as "Lu Bai" from the start.

However, what Qi Islands was fortunate about was that Ji Feng was not as perverted. After reaching the later levels, his condition was obviously not as good as before. After all, his strength was based on the "Universal Affinity" talent, and this talent would cause physical exertion to the Beast Tamer during battle.

But even so, because Ji Feng was willing to change pets, not using a single pet throughout, he also passed the first eight levels relatively easily, until he came to the ninth level and confronted the Demon Blade Jindai.

On the Qi Islands side, it was extremely heavy.

Today, on the Sky Ship watching the Champion Road, in addition to yesterday's original team, one more person had arrived here.

She was wearing a white and red miko outfit, with an oval face and delicate features, and had smooth, black hime-cut hair. Her red eyes calmly watched the young man below.

Her name was Hōōin Yui, a miko of the Phoenix Shrine, currently ranked third among the younger generation in Qi Islands.

[Yui, your task is to approach that young man from Dong Huang named 'Lu Bai' and get closer to him.]

In the eyes of the Qi Islands Association, the woman who can attract an outstanding young man like "Lu Bai" must also be extremely outstanding.

The disciple of a Legend Beast Tamer, also a quasi-Legend herself, and possessing the Phoenix bloodline as a mixed-blood miko, Hōōin Yui, was naturally the best choice.

The higher-ups in Qi Islands were very clear that the Dong Huang people had a high level of worship for dragons and phoenixes. In their opinion, letting Hōōin Yui contact "Lu Bai" would definitely make Lu Bai fall for her. After all, because of her mixed blood, Hōōin Yui's appearance was also top-tier in Qi Islands.

However, it was a pity that "Lu Bai" did not appear at the Champion Road challenge site today.

"This person is also quite strong." Hōōin Yui looked at Ji Feng below and fell into thought. So how strong exactly is Lu Bai, who cleared the ten levels in a row? She wanted to see him.

In the end, Dong Huang's Ji Feng narrowly defeated the Demon Blade Jindai, the number one person under the Legends of Qi Islands, once again stimulating the nerves of the Qi Islands people. However, at this point, Ji Feng no longer had the strength to challenge the Overlord. His challenge ended here.

The third day.

Dong Huang's Zou Yun began his challenge. Because the previous two Dong Huang contestants were perverted to the point of being outrageous, Heavenly King Zou was targeted very badly, only passing seven levels and kneeling at the eighth.

Making Tong Yan and the others disgusted for a while.

It was also on this day that Jewel Cat and Shi Yu secretly returned to the Dong Huang base in Rainbow Sky City, considered to be "recovered". Next, they could stroll around at will.

After sending a private message to Legend Ba Hai and the others, telling them that he was back, Shi Yu couldn't hold back and planned to stroll around as Lu Bai.

He wasn't afraid that Qi Islands would discover him and plot against him.

His trump card was never his own strength! Nor was it Jewel Cat, his bodyguard!

It was the demigod-level Dragon God Guardian on his body!!!

Currently, the Dragon God was the biggest sugar mommy and the thickest thigh!

With this thing, safety was naturally guaranteed to the maximum level.

However, Shi Yu realized that he had underestimated Qi Islands.

Qi Islands used a method that even the Dragon God Guardian could not stop. As soon as Shi Yu left the Dong Huang base, intending to stroll around, a red-eyed woman in a miko outfit blocked Shi Yu's path.

"'Lu Bai'?" Hōōin Yui looked at the young man in front of her, smiled, and said, "I've found you."

"You are... May I ask, what's the matter?" Shi Yu became cautious when he saw the beautiful miko in front of him.

The three words "honey trap" appeared in Shi Yu's mind.

Not good!

This Jewel Cat and Dragon God Guardian can't help him stop.

It's time to test his will.

Eleven got Overlord will through adding points. He has experienced so much suffering that his will should not be low in theory!

"Qi Islands Beast Tamer, Hōōin Yui, level, quasi-Legend." Hōōin Yui's red lips slightly moved, and she said, "The higher-ups in the Association asked me to approach you and have a good relationship with you."

Shi Yu: ???

Shi Yu was still thinking about how to reject the other party, but the other party's opening made Shi Yu confused.

Openly playing cards?

Is that how you use a honey trap?

Do you even know how to play?

No, that's not right.

Intuition told Shi Yu that this guy's level was actually very high... He had to be careful.

Shi Yu said with a pale face, "Cough, sorry, I have a contagious disease and don't like making friends."

In another dimension, Jewel Cat shook her head while watching the two fighting each other and happily started munching on sunflower seeds.

Outside, Hōōin Yui was silent for a moment.

He does look sick.

However, she smiled and said, "It's okay, I have the Phoenix bloodline, which makes me immune to all diseases. From childhood to adulthood, no disease has been able to approach me."

Shi Yu was slightly stunned, wait, Phoenix bloodline?

Hōōin Yui said, "I've heard about your deeds. If the higher-ups asked me to contact someone else, I would unhesitatingly tell them to get lost, but I am very interested in the strong."

"The Champion Road, even I, may not be able to clear it. You are very strong, and most importantly, you're not bad-looking. Even as a future partner, I wouldn't be very averse to it. How about trying to get to know each other?"

Shi Yu's heart was as still as water. He took a deep breath. If it weren't for the fact that he had many female fans in Dong Huang and was already used to confessions, he would have been a little moved.

"I..."

Just as Shi Yu was about to answer forget it, Hōōin Yui added, "By the way, isn't there a secret realm to be cracked in this duel between Dong Huang and Qi Islands? I come from the Phoenix Shrine. Our Shrine has an uncracked secret realm. Would you like to take a look together?"

"Although it is very difficult to crack, I think Beast Tamers from Dong Huang should be very interested in secret realms related to the Phoenix race, right?"

"In addition to that, there are many interesting things on Phoenix Mountain."

Shi Yu was stunned.

Phoenix... Shrine?

Shi Yu looked at the miko. Sure enough, Phoenix bloodline, miko, he knew something was wrong.

So, this guy's teacher is that Qi Islands Legend who accidentally entered the Phoenix Secret Realm?

Shi Yu fell into deep thought and silence.

You want to talk about this, and I won't be sleepy.

However.

Do you know what playing with fire and what "inviting a wolf into the house" means???

"Okay." Shi Yu nodded and looked at the beautiful miko opposite him. "But I have to wait for my companions."

"Okay."

When Hōōin Yui saw that Shi Yu had agreed, she immediately understood that Shi Yu had failed to withstand her offensive.

After giving Shi Yu a step down to "explore the secret realm", Shi Yu took the bait.

At that time, as long as she provided some information and strategy tips about the Phoenix Secret Realm, Shi Yu would definitely have a good impression of her +1+1+1+1.

It was just a pity that the Phoenix Secret Realm was destined not to be cracked by ordinary people. During this time, Shi Yu and the others would be wasting their time.

"Then it's a deal." Hōōin Yui smiled.

"It's a deal."

In order to get this guy to leave quickly, Shi Yu immediately agreed.

Then, Hōōin Yui left, leaving Shi Yu to ponder life in place...

He hoped that after demolishing the Phoenix Secret Realm, this miko wouldn't turn into a witch and curse him.

…………

Not long after that day, Legend Ba Hai and his group returned from Crown Rainbow Mountain Range.

After returning, Legend Ba Hai immediately met with Shi Yu alone.

"You have a problem!!!"

As soon as they met, Legend Ba Hai widened his eyes and said, "So, the biggest gain from your trip with Senior Ying was not filling up the Starry Sky Egg with energy, but casually catching a reincarnated Abyss Demigod?"

"Yeah, yeah." Shi Yu said, "I'm really lucky..."

Legend Ba Hai: ???

The old man slightly widened his mouth.

What, what is this!

This kid Shi Yu... This can't be attributed to luck, right?

Are you sure you are not a reincarnated mythical creature majoring in luck?

Shi Yu smiled sheepishly: "Let's talk about this after returning to Dong Huang. The main problem now is the main business, the main business, the main business of coming to Qi Islands."

The corners of Legend Ba Hai's mouth twitched.

He had a feeling that even if the main business was delayed, this trip would not be a loss.

"By the way, today's surveillance at the base captured Hōōin Yui coming nearby. It captured your contact with her. What happened between you two?" Legend Ba Hai took a deep breath, temporarily forgetting about the Abyss Demon Duck that Shi Yu had mentioned, and talked to Shi Yu about "business".

"She is the personal disciple of that Legend Beast Tamer who accidentally entered the Phoenix Secret Realm. Both the teacher and the apprentice are dedicated to cracking the Phoenix Secret Realm."

"It's nothing big." Shi Yu touched his chin and said, "The Qi Islands Association probably asked her to win me over. Then she invited me to play at the Phoenix Shrine, and I agreed."

"Anyway, we will go sooner or later."

Legend Ba Hai: "..."

He had never seen someone who was so eager to die.

"Understood." Legend Ba Hai said, "But I have to remind you... Don't fall for the honey traps of Qi Islands, well, including those from Shinra, Tei Country, Rōgoku, Meikai, and Yukihara. You are indeed not young anymore. If you have any ideas, our Dong Huang also has many outstanding female Beast Tamers."

"I remember that Lu Qingyi, Tong Yan, and even Shen Ling are all single. If you have any ideas in this regard, they are undoubtedly more outstanding and cannot be compared to some island country Beast Tamers."

Shi Yu smiled wryly and said, "Don't worry, I know what's important. Do I look like someone who can't resist temptation?"

Legend Ba Hai: "Yes."

Shi Yu: "..."

Damn it!

"Let's not talk about this." Seeing that Legend Ba Hai was so bored, Shi Yu coughed and said, "Uncle Yu, what's the situation with the Champion Road?"

"Ji Feng stopped at the tenth level, and Zou Yun stopped at the eighth level." Legend Ba Hai said, with no major surprises.

Shi Yu was stunned. Ji Feng was okay, but what was the situation with Heavenly King Zou!

Now, he could already imagine... Heavenly King Zou being scolded on the hot search.

It's okay, being black is also being popular.

"By the way, didn't you also say that if you pass the tenth level of the Champion Road, you can enter the Qi Islands Mythical Ruins to cultivate for 7 days?" Shi Yu said, "Do you have any information about this Mythical Ruins? What are the specific cultivation effects inside?"

Shi Yu began to think about his most important reward.

Legend Ba Hai nodded and said, "I have already obtained the information. The Mythical Ruins are ruins that increase skill training efficiency. In theory, 7 days can allow the pet cultivating inside to train a newly mastered transcendent skill to near-proficient level and use it proficiently at a very fast speed."

"Of course, if the skill being trained by the pet is at the proficient level, it is still effective. The rule is roughly that the lower the skill proficiency, the easier it is to improve, and vice versa. It is said that relying on this ruin can steadily cultivate Overlord-level pets, and the effect is comparable to renewable legendary resources."

"However, each time the ruin is opened, it consumes a huge amount of resources. Cultivating ordinary Overlords is not cost-effective. It is only suitable for geniuses. If nothing unexpected happens, the two legendary World Championship contestants from Qi Islands and that Hōōin Yui who contacted you must have cultivated here."

Shi Yu:?

What?

Just this?

7 days is just equivalent to a few point additions?

The cultivation effect of the Mythical Ruins is only this level?

Compared to the Qi Islands Mythical Ruins, adding points can also exercise the pet's will and physique. Compared to that, Shi Yu immediately felt bored.

Shi Yu also compared it with the Mythical Ruins cracked by Senior Sister Lu.

The Mythical Ruins cracked by Senior Sister Lu gave her five pets corresponding mythical bloodlines and inherited five perfect-level mythical resurrection skills... Compared to that, although this Mythical Ruins in Qi Islands can't be said to be useless, it is useless to Shi Yu, who has a skill index. It is not as attractive to him as the ruins cracked by Senior Sister Lu.

Sure enough, Mythical Ruins are also divided into levels. That's right... Qi Islands can't open up too outrageous ruins to outsiders.

"Seven days of cultivation is not bad. The most important thing is that all contracted pets can enter together. If used properly, it will usher in good improvement." Legend Ba Hai said.

Shi Yu thought for a while and shook his head and said, "Transfer this opportunity to Brother Zheng Hai. I am Lu Bai's identity now, and it is not easy for Eleven and the others to enter the ruins to cultivate. Moreover, seven days is not very meaningful for my strength improvement. Isn't Zheng Hai's pet just a little bit short of skill proficiency to reach Overlord level? Taking advantage of this opportunity, perhaps we can immediately add a Legend Beast Tamer to Dong Huang."

Shi Yu said decisively. He was thinking about Legend Ba Hai's Infinite Devouring! Hearing this, Legend Ba Hai was stunned because Zheng Hai was his disciple. He never expected that Shi Yu would say that he would give the opportunity to enter the Mythical Ruins to Zheng Hai.

"The price, let's calculate it at a discount on legendary resources, a friendly price." Shi Yu looked up and said, "Uncle Yu, will you pay or will Zheng Hai pay?"

Selling the opportunity to buy supplements to add points is more cost-effective.

Legend Ba Hai: ???

"Cough cough." Legend Ba Hai's scalp tingled and said, "Although I don't know what you're thinking, talk to Zheng Hai yourself later."

"He wants his Kun to perfectly advance to Overlord, and he hasn't missed any transcendent skill proficiency, so the progress is a little slow. He should really want this ruin cultivation opportunity."

"If he doesn't have enough money, come find me."

"Okay, just a little bit is enough. I'm mainly afraid that if I give it away for free, you and Brother Zheng Hai will be embarrassed." Shi Yu said happily.

The corners of Legend Ba Hai's mouth twitched. You said everything!

However, Legend Ba Hai now had a good impression of Shi Yu, because Shi Yu cleared the Champion Road, but his disciple would benefit.

His bodyguard hadn't been a waste.

Wait, after Zheng Hai reaches the Legend level, will he have to be Shi Yu's bodyguard when he participates in the World Championship??? With Shi Yu's level of courting death... Legend Ba Hai's scalp tingled again.
