Chapter 974

Chapter 974: Chapter 792: Sound of the Flute "No..."

The blue ripples hovering above the dense forest vanished. As Billet looked at the wild pet beasts emerging one after another from the woods, the expectation that had stirred in his heart began to slowly extinguish.

There was no sign of Adinixi...

Under Niudikaka’s hypnosis, if Adinixi were truly inside the forest, it wouldn’t be able to resist coming out.

Flame Kiru possesses Tactile Power, and the imagery synchronized with Qiao Sang must have actually happened.

In such a scenario, the absence of Adinixi implies that it was inside the forest earlier this morning but has since left...

Billet let out a deep breath, his emotions tangled.

At that moment, Qiao Sang said, "Teacher, Adinixi didn’t come out."

Billet sighed, as if it was obvious: "It should no longer be inside now."

"Why?" Qiao Sang was puzzled by his certainty.

"Niudikaka’s hypnosis covers the entire forest. Unless the pet beast is Emperor Level or higher, it’s impossible to resist such hypnosis." Billet patiently explained.

Qiao Sang mulled it over for a few seconds and then asked, "What level is Adinixi?"

For magical beasts and those legendary pet beasts, there’s rarely detailed information available online.

Typically, when searching for a specific species within a category of magical beasts, the data mostly ends with simply labeling it as a magical beast or a legendary pet beast, with hardly any mention of its level.

Unless the pet beast has been contracted by someone, leaving behind verified records.

Billet fell silent.

He wasn’t particularly sure about this...

"Some magical beasts have evolutionary paths; others retain only one form from beginning to end..." Billet hesitated briefly before continuing, "Adinixi should belong to the latter."

Magical beasts that retain a singular form don’t necessarily imply weakness. On the contrary, many species that have existed for hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years while maintaining their original forms tend to be terrifyingly strong.

Some experts believe that such magical beasts have an inherent body capable of enduring energy endlessly, eliminating the need for evolution to bolster their physique or expand their energy capacity.

Billet hadn’t considered that Adinixi might have reached the Emperor Level or higher. He hadn’t encountered an Emperor Level wild pet beast in a long time, and since Adinixi tends to hibernate for centuries, he instinctively ruled out that possibility...

An Emperor Level magical beast... Billet’s thoughts spun wildly.

If Adinixi truly is Emperor Level, should he continue the search?

It wouldn’t matter as much if he were alone, but now there was that monstrous talent from the imperial school at his side. Not a single mistake could be afforded...

Billet opened his mouth: "Should we perhaps..."

Qiao Sang spoke simultaneously: "If Adinixi might be an Emperor Level pet beast, there’s a chance it’s still inside. Should we just go in directly to search?"

Billet paused for a moment: "You’re not scared?"

Qiao Sang was caught off guard: "Scared of what?"

Billet fixed his gaze on her: "You just said Adinixi might be an Emperor Level pet beast."

Qiao Sang returned his gaze, brimming with trust: "But aren’t you here as well?"

Billet hesitated briefly before revealing a confident, strategizing smile: "You’re not wrong. There’s a strong likelihood that Adinixi is still inside, but we don’t need to go in purposely to find it."

Saying this, he looked upward and shouted at Niudikaka flying in the sky:

freeweɓnovēl.coɱ "Sense if there’s a powerful presence inside!"

"Niu."

Niudikaka responded with a short call before shutting its eyes.

An invisible wave rippled out from its body, sweeping across the dense forest like a series of expanding ripples.

Insight—a high-level skill of superpowers, capable of locking onto a general area for a thorough search. Initially, Billet hadn’t let Niudikaka use this move, probably due to the sheer number of wild pet beasts within the forest. Now that the pet beasts with spiritual power inferior to Niudikaka had been hypnotized to emerge, those remaining inside could be easily pinpointed... Qiao Sang felt a sense of relief.

Going on adventures with a powerful entity has its perks—you don’t need to worry about anything, just relax and let them handle it.

"Gugu!"

A few seconds later, an overly intimidating roar echoed from deep within the forest.

A violent gust of wind suddenly poured out from the depths of the trees.

Was it Adinixi? Qiao Sang’s eyes lit up in excitement upon sensing the massive commotion.

But the next second, her heart sank.

From the center of the dense forest, massive trees collapsed en masse as a bird-like pet beast, approximately thirty meters in length and fully encased in jet-black armor, spread its wings wide enough to obscure a majority of the sky. In an instant, it flew straight towards Niudikaka.

A brazen air of arrogance radiated from its body.

Its appearance was unmistakably different from any depiction of Adinixi found online.

The black-armored bird-like pet beast wasted no time and opened its jaw.

The surrounding air became distorted, and a terrifying white ripple began to form in its throat!

All the previously hypnotized, numbed wild pet beasts immediately snapped out of their stupor, scrambling to flee in panic.

The melodic hypnosis stopped abruptly.

The scene descended into chaos within moments.

As the destructive attack from the menacing bird-like pet beast began to take shape, Billet’s expression shifted slightly. He shouted urgently:

"Teleportation!"

"Niu."

Niudikaka’s eyes glowed blue the moment it heard its Beast Tamer’s command.

In the next instant, both Niudikaka and the jet-black-armored bird-like pet beast vanished into thin air.

The sky immediately returned to its tranquil state, as though nothing had ever happened.

Most of the surrounding pet beasts had fled.

Qiao Sang glanced at Billet quietly.

Billet looked somewhat awkward, cleared his throat, and said: "I didn’t expect there to be another Emperor Level pet beast inside."

For Emperor Level pet beasts, being scanned by skills like Insight was akin to being blatantly provoked. Encountering one with a bad temper might lead to situations like what had just transpired.

Qiao Sang maintained a polite smile and asked, "What should we do now?"

"Niudikaka cannot be summoned back for a while. If we call it back, that Gukai Emperor will return as well." Billet contemplated and then added, "We’ll go in directly to search."

Qiao Sang: "..."

Stay calm. He’s a powerful figure, the teacher. Think positively—getting Niudikaka involved earlier at least eliminated one dangerous factor in the forest... Qiao Sang regained her composure and was about to nod in agreement.

Just then, a melodious flute sound reached her ears.

Qiao Sang felt an overwhelming wave of drowsiness engulf her. Unable to resist, she closed her eyes and collapsed to the ground.

The sound of the flute—could it be Adinixi... The thought crossed Billet’s mind briefly before he staggered and eventually succumbed to the same force of sleep, his eyes shutting as he dropped to the ground.

Yaobao and the remaining wild pet beasts all fell unconscious.

"Fa-fa..."

Famiu Moth resisted with all its strength, trying to keep its eyes open and avoid falling.

It vaguely saw a figure clutching a red object appear before it.

The melody of the flute intensified sharply.

"Fa-fa..."

Unable to withstand the tidal wave of sleepiness, Famiu Moth’s eyelids felt impossibly heavy, and even its exceptional willpower couldn’t keep it conscious.

Its eyes shut tight, and it crashed to the ground.

"Dee-dee."

Adinixi fixed its gaze on the two humans and the pile of pet beasts lying on the ground before its attention shifted to the circular ring on Yaobao’s head.

"Dee-dee?"

Adinixi’s eyes sparkled with interest as it walked to the unconscious Yaobao and removed the ring from its head.

It shook the ring in its hand, inspected it briefly, and then shook it again.

"Dee-dee..."

Seeing that nothing emerged from the ring, Adinixi’s mouth twisted into a pout.

Then a thought occurred to it, and it turned to look at Yaobao.

"Dee-dee..."

Adinixi grabbed Yaobao’s paw, lifted it up, and began dragging it into the dense forest.

Ten meters away, a green-bean-sized eye on the head of a fallen wild pet beast blinked once.
