Spirit Plant Masters Sweep Across the Beast Taming Interstellar Space

Chapter 86 Xiong Xia's World Collapsed [Part Two]

Xiong Xia squatted down next to the beaver with a silly grin on his face, looking at his pet with eyes full of affection, and not forgetting to praise his pet.

"Big brother, almost there, almost there, it's about to bite open."

Xiong Dong stood against the wall, glancing occasionally at the hardworking beaver, while focusing most of his energy on the elevator and stairwell in the basement.

"understood."

Hearing his younger brother boast about his achievements, he impatiently gave a perfunctory reply.

"Get ready, bite it open soon."

Chiyo also made sure to send messages to Kakuhachi and Oyanagi.

Upon receiving the telepathic message, Da Liu and Ge Bai stood up simultaneously.

It's about to begin.

Click.

With one last bite, the beaver contentedly swallowed the last piece of metal from the door lock.

With a soft click from the lock cylinder, the heavy alloy door, no longer restrained by the lock, gently opened a crack.

"Move aside, I'll do it."

The beaver had done this more than once or twice; after biting open, it jumped back onto Xiong Xia's back.

Xiong Xia hugged the beaver and took two steps back to make room for Xiong Dong.

"Squeak squeak".

The Spirit-Eating Rat, which had been staying in Xiong Dong's pocket, chirped twice more.

The wind-elemental spiritual energy he sensed was right here.

Xiong Dong cautiously stepped forward and peered through the crack in the alloy door; all he could see was darkness.

He slowly reached out and pulled open the alloy door.

The moment he fully opened the door, he was completely dumbfounded.

Behind the alloy door, there was no mountain of spiritual energy resources, only a tightly sealed metal wall.

"Big brother, what's going on?"

Xiong Xia peeked over, saw a wall, and was dumbfounded.

"Walk."

Xiong Dong sensed something was wrong. Although he couldn't figure out what had happened, he felt uneasy.

Always cautious, he made the decision without hesitation.

But it was too late.

As the two brothers looked at the door of the spirit chamber and stared at each other in bewilderment, Chiyo had already used her spatial teleportation skill to teleport Ooyuki from the second floor behind them.

As soon as Da Liu, who had been gathering his strength, appeared, he unhesitatingly smashed the Storm Willow Blade Hammer that he had prepared beforehand at Xiong Dong.

From feeling the intense fluctuations of wind-elemental spiritual energy to the pounding of the Storm Willow Blade on his body, the only action Xiong Dong could take was to turn around.

What's the point? It's just a matter of whether you take the blow with the back of your head or with your face.

He didn't even have time to raise his hand to cover his face.

Chiyo, who had been watching the two of them for more than ten minutes, chose an exceptionally accurate landing spot for Oyanagi.

During those ten minutes or so, she even told Da Liu which direction to exert force after appearing.

So much so that when he delivered this blow, Da Liu hardly thought about it; it was exceptionally easy for him.

A level 8 Beastmaster in the Transcendent Realm, without a pet that can specifically boost the Beastmaster's defense through a contract, will only have slightly better physical attributes than a normal person, and will be incomparable to pets of the same level.

When Da Liu swung his hammer, the floor tiles shattered, creating a large crater. Xiong Dong was smashed into the ground, his face covered in blood, and he fell into a coma. His right arm and right leg were bent at an abnormal angle, and his sternum was caved in. It was unclear whether he was alive or dead.

Da Liu didn't hesitate either. Regardless of Xiong Dong's life or death, she injected spiritual power into the willow branches and took the initiative to cut off a few branches to bind Xiong Dong tightly in the pit.

Especially the hands.

Ge Bai had already given instructions: this person was a beast tamer, and who knew what other pet beasts he had contracted. He had to strike hard and then never give him another chance to summon a pet beast.

While things went smoothly on Oyanagi's side, some minor issues arose on Chiyo's side.

As previously agreed, Oyagi dealt with Xiong Dong, and Chiyo teleported Oyagi over to finish off Xiong Xia with the Chiyo Sword.

Da Liu's Storm Willow Hammer perfectly stunned Xiong Dong, and Chiyo was already a beat too slow to use her Chiyo Sword after she used her spatial teleportation.

Xiong Xia also had a peculiar way of thinking. Seeing his older brother being knocked unconscious by the suddenly appearing willow tree, he didn't think of drawing a summoning circle to summon his pet to fight back, nor did he think of rushing towards his older brother, or even rushing towards the big willow tree.

Instead, he turned around and squatted down, covering his head.

Chiyo had rehearsed Xiong Xia's reaction countless times in her mind, but she really didn't expect him to crouch down with his head in his hands!

To be honest, Chiyo's sword was fast and accurate. It was originally aimed at Xiong Xia's chest, but because of his pause, it grazed his scalp and exploded in front of Xiong Xia.

The unfortunate beaver, who was originally nestled in Xiong Xia's arms, was startled and jumped out, only to be struck by Chiyo's sword.

Xiong Xia narrowly escaped death, but was blasted away by the force of the spatial distortion and explosion, rolling twice on the ground.

Chiyoken's spatial distortion explosion, combined with Ōyanagi's Storm Willow Hammer, were unleashed almost simultaneously in the already small basement.

No matter how well decorated this place is, it's not a standard fighting arena. In an instant, the floor tiles and walls shattered, and dust filled the entire space.

Not only did Xiong Xia, who had rolled twice, disappear from Chiyo's sight in the smoky basement, but this also gave the Spirit-Eating Rat an opportunity.

The Storm Willow Hammer's attack was mainly aimed at Xiong Dong; the Spirit-Eating Rat in his pocket was only stunned by the shock and was not seriously injured.

It made two soft squeaks in the pocket, then quietly slipped out and rushed straight to the stairwell.

Da Liu spotted the Spirit-Eating Rat and lashed out with his willow whips, but both strikes missed their mark.

This mouse is even more agile than a machine mouse.

Just then, Ge Bai arrived at the basement stairwell entrance, carrying a metal golf club, which she had found in the study that afternoon.

She just happened to see the Soul-Eating Rat rush up from the corner of the stairs.

The staircase leading to the basement wasn't wide, and Ge Bai had no intention of letting this escaped rat get away.

Who knows if these two have any companions nearby?

Stand with your legs apart and grip the golf club with one hand above the other.

Standing at the top of the stairs, Ge Bai now exuded an aura of invincibility, as if he were the only one holding the pass against ten thousand.

The Spirit-Eating Rat moved swiftly, but Ge Bai's swing was equally fast.

Aiming at the Soul-Eating Rat, I swung the stick and knocked it away with a resounding clang, sending it crashing into the ceiling of the basement stairwell.

With a loud thud, a muffled sound was heard.

The Soul-Eating Rat slumped down the stairs, landing unconscious.

Oh, so this level 8 Transcendent Realm pet is so easily defeated.

Ge Bai thought he could at most repel the Spirit-Eating Rat, and was waiting for Da Liu or Qian Dai to come and finish it off, but he didn't expect to finish it off with one strike.

Fortunately, what she took out from the study was a golf club, which was perfect for hitting mice.

She originally intended to use a baseball bat, but found it a bit short and heavy, and not as comfortable as a golf club, so she switched to it.

After taking two steps down, Ge Bai used the head of a golf club to lift the limp Soul-Eating Rat and headed towards the basement.

Judging from the commotion just now, Ooyagi and Chiyo should have sorted things out by now.

As soon as Ge Bai stepped into the basement, he saw Da Liu guarding the entrance to the basement stairs.

She tossed the Soul-Eating Rat into the corner and gestured towards Da Liu.

Da Liu turned her head away, suppressing her discomfort, and separated a willow branch full of spiritual power to bind the spirit-eating rat into a ball.

The main idea is to keep things out of sight, out of mind.

"Bai Bai, Xiong Dong has passed out and is tied up. Chiyo seems to have missed. Xiong Xia is still not under control."

Da Liu and Ge Bai quickly explained what had just happened.

Ge Bai instantly became more vigilant; this was troublesome.

"Chiyo, hide for a bit and look for Kumagawa."

Gobai transmitted his voice to Chiyo while simultaneously searching every corner of the basement.

The smoke and dust slowly settled, and visibility improved significantly.

If all else fails, retreat. Professor Rowan and the police detectives should be arriving soon. These two probably don't have any space-type pets or items, so they can't escape.

Suddenly, the summoning circle lit up in the innermost corner of the basement.

It’s over.

Ge Bai's heart sank; he had been a step too slow, giving Ge Bai the opportunity to summon his pet.

Without a doubt, this is Xiong Xia's most powerful pet.

"Aww!"

A chilling howl echoed in the basement. Through the thinning smoke and dust, Ge Bai could vaguely make out a dog-like pet that was half the height of a man.

The spiritual communication system displayed information about the pet beast before Ge Bai's eyes.

[Species: Bloodthirsty Mad Hyena (Extraordinary Race)]

[Spiritual Power: Level 8 of the Transcendent Realm (659.31/800)]

[Attribute: Fire]

[Skill: Bloodlust and Devouring - Proficient. Skill Description: ...]

[Skill: Bloodfireball - Proficient. Skill Description: ...]

[Skill: Mane Steel Spikes - Proficient. Skill Description: ...]

Ge Bai didn't have time to read the skill descriptions carefully.

If you can't beat them, you don't even need to observe the bloodthirsty hyenas closely.

Just by looking at its spiritual power and skill proficiency, you can tell that Ooyagi and Chiyo are no match for it at their current level.

Even if we use the Spirit Peach or the Spirit Peach to steal the Spirit Peach and win by sheer luck, it will be a Pyrrhic victory, not worth it.

Moreover, the combat strength of these two thieves cannot be assessed using the same methods as in a ring match; who knows how much blood is on their hands?

No, we need to think of a solution.

The bloodthirsty, red-eyed hyena crouched low and approached Ge Bai and Da Liu.

At that moment, the mobile terminal in Ge Bai's pocket began to vibrate.

She reached out and pressed the mobile terminal, calculating the time; Professor Rowan and the detectives should have arrived by now.

"Chiyo, move this hyena to the villa entrance, and move Ooyuki behind Kuma Natsu."

If you can't solve it yourself, leave it to someone who can.

"DaLiu, deploy a set of wind blades and prepare the Storm Willow Blade Hammer."

"Okay!" Chiyo Oyanagi responded in unison.

There is no better way.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.

Seven wind blades were hurled at the bloodthirsty hyena from different angles.

"Hyena Madman, take care of them!" Xiong Xia's voice came from the corner.

His voice was hoarse and trembling, with a hint of exasperation, indicating that he was not entirely unharmed.

Seeing the wind blades approaching, the bloodthirsty hyena didn't rush forward, but skillfully dodged them.

He could sense the spiritual energy fluctuations of the willow tree opposite him, which were much weaker than his own, so he wasn't in a hurry at all.

This pause gave Chiyo the opportunity.

Using the spatial teleportation skill on an enemy pet whose spiritual power level is almost a whole stage higher than one's own is not easy.

Chiyo swallowed the Resurrection Peach without hesitation the moment she heard Gobai's command.

He channeled all his spiritual energy, preparing wholeheartedly for the spatial teleportation skill.

Seeing that the bloodthirsty hyena was entangled by the wind blades, Chiyo decisively used spatial teleportation.

Feeling as if it were tightly bound by the air, the bloodthirsty hyena writhed wildly, tearing and rolling around in all directions.

Every bud on the little orchid's flower stalk shimmered with spiritual energy, and its leaves trembled slightly; it was struggling too much.

Snapped.

Successful.

A spatial distortion occurred, and the struggling, bloodthirsty hyena vanished from its spot.

At the same time, Chiyo used her last bit of spiritual power to teleport Ooyuki behind Kuma Natsu.

Tonight, in just a few short minutes, too many things shocked Xiong Xia.

The metal wall behind the alloy door.

A violent willow tree that suddenly appeared.

A spatial attack from behind.

Has his trump card, the Bloodthirsty Mad Hyena, disappeared?

Xiong Xia stood there, stunned.

After summoning the bloodthirsty hyena, he took out the portable spiritual energy detection device he always carried with him and tested it again.

That's right. Apart from his own bloodthirsty hyena, all the other spiritual energy fluctuations were at the mortal spirit realm.

Is my spiritual energy detection device broken?

Or am I going crazy?

When did the spiritual plants in the mortal realm become so terrifying...?

Xiong Xia wasn't much of a thinker to begin with, and now her thoughts were even more chaotic, so she didn't notice Da Liu suddenly appearing behind her.

Storm Willow Blade Hammer.

Tonight, the target was hit again, just like when Xiong Dong was knocked down, Xiong Xia was slammed into the floor.

Unlike his older brother who fell face up, Xiong Xia didn't even have time to turn around; he took the blow head-on with the back of his head.

The problem in the basement has been resolved.

Ge Bai glanced at the messy basement. Two people, a beaver, and a mouse were all unconscious and tightly bound by Da Liu's willow branches.

She beckoned to Chiyo, who was already listless and no longer possessed any spiritual power, and floated unsteadily toward Ge Bai.

Ge Bai took out the Spirit Peach that Xiao Tao had left for her from his pocket and stuffed it directly into Qian Dai's arms.

"I'm leaving this to you. Keep an eye on them. When they wake up, finish them off with a Chiyoken. Don't hold back."

After saying that, Ge Bai led Da Liu toward the door.

She needs to pick up Professor Rowan and the others, and also check if the Bloodthirsty Mad Hyena has been dealt with.

Chiyo used another Spirit-Restoring Peach without hesitation. As her spiritual power quickly recovered, her listless appearance improved considerably.

Floating back to the center of the basement, Chiyo looked at the four "willow silk cocoons" scattered around and hesitated whether to arrange them neatly.

Just as she was hesitating, her gaze fell on the beaver lying by the alloy door.

Chiyo narrowed her eyes and looked closely. There was a metal object lying next to the beaver. It wasn't something that was originally in the basement.

In a flash, Chiyo appeared in front of the metal object, a triangular token made of dark gold metal.

The design is simple and the carving is exquisite. It seems to be a good item. However, there seems to be some liquid on the token, like beaver saliva. Did the beaver spit this out?

Chiyo did not directly touch the token, but instead used the Chiyo Sword to attack it.

Space distorted and exploded, but the metal token remained unharmed. It was simply blown away and rolled to Xiong Dong's side, only stopping when it touched the willow branch binding Xiong Dong.

It's definitely a good item. Even the Chiyoken couldn't break it, so it shouldn't be dangerous. It didn't cause any problems when it hit someone, so it seems quite stable.

After considering all this, Chiyo carefully touched the metal token with the leaf. Seeing that there was no unusual reaction, she put the token into her spatial bag.

Well, good things shouldn't be given to others for free. I'll secretly give them to Ge Bai later.

Chiyo was the first to claim the spoils of this battle.
