Beast Taming Patrol Chapter 1491 - 421: Team Tournament Concludes (Two-in-One, Countdown to Finale: 30)
Previously on Beast Taming Patrol...
Driven by this goal, it had even secretly immersed itself in intensive research of the Time system whenever Big Brother wasn’t looking!
This specific technique is known as Anti-Ball Light!
The transition was instantaneous; a beam of ink-black light, which seemed to swallow all surrounding illumination, had already closed the distance to Qiuqiu!
Even though Qiuqiu’s terrifying power was currently surging to unprecedented heights, it still seemed eclipsed by the raw strength within this streak of light.
A direct impact would likely result in severe injuries, even considering Qiuqiu’s peak defensive state!
Gui’s mask began to flicker unsteadily.
What exactly is Big Brother’s bizarre stance?
I put so much effort into preparing this ultimate move; I can't even be certain if it will land successfully.
It should work, shouldn't it?
After all, the Anti-Ball Light is already right in front of Big Brother; there’s no way it could miss now...
In the following heartbeat, Gui’s train of thought came to a grinding halt.
It had caught sight of Big Brother’s expression.
Big Brother looked exceptionally composed.
Not good, this is bad!
A sudden wave of anxiety crashed through Gui’s mind.
Just as expected, the scales of victory, which had been tipped heavily in Gui’s favor, suddenly underwent a drastic shift.
One of Qiuqiu’s paws was suddenly extracted from the river of time!
That paw, saturated with vast Time system power and governed by a rule that Gui couldn't begin to understand, reached out and calmly tapped the oncoming streak of light!
Time seemed to freeze at that exact moment, followed by an eerie transformation!
A multitude of phantom scenes suddenly manifested around Qiuqiu. A closer look revealed these scenes were the chronological moments of the light beam’s formation, from its convergence by the hell natives until its arrival before Qiuqiu.
It was as if the moment Qiuqiu made physical contact, every historical second belonging to that light streak was fully perceived by him!
Then, with a single thought from Qiuqiu, the scene where he touched the light instantly crumbled into ash.
The streak of light was immediately forced back to the previous scene in its timeline.
This process repeated; as each preceding scene vanished into ash, the light was compelled to retreat further into the past.
Over and over, as the scenes disintegrated in rapid succession, the light was forced into a temporal reversal until it finally dissolved into raw energy threads, returning to the Nine-layered Hell Tower!
While the process felt as though it spanned a vast duration, the actual time elapsed was merely a blink of an eye!
Gui’s mask flickered with frantic intensity.
What kind of power is that?!
While the Time system possesses the trait of temporal reversal, there are supposed to be limits.
The power within that light streak actually exceeded Big Brother’s total strength; how could he possibly revert it to a state of non-existence?!
Is that even logical?!
Gui’s mind was screaming in disbelief.
Its instinct was to phase away and flee, putting distance between itself and Qiuqiu’s current, strange state.
However, its movements were quietly arrested in the next moment.
A paw had already been placed firmly upon its black robe.
When did Big Brother get so close?
Was it just now?
No... that's not right!
Gui’s heart shuddered violently.
It was five seconds ago!
A fresh set of memories flooded its mind, vividly detailing how Qiuqiu had placed his paw on the robe five seconds in the past and held it there until the present.
Yet... its original memory insisted that the entire confrontation between them hadn't even lasted five seconds in total.
These two conflicting memories of the same timeframe terrified Gui, allowing it to quickly grasp the reality of the situation.
So...
Did Big Brother travel five seconds into the past to rewrite the present?!
“Meow~( ̄ω ̄)ฅ” (Just admit defeat!)
Qiuqiu’s face was a mask of smug satisfaction and thrill.
This was the first time he had utilized this secret technique, and the results were more spectacular than he had anticipated.
It was settled! He would dedicate more time to practicing this secret technique back on Blue Star.
Perhaps it might even prove useful against the Time Master one day!
“Jie... (。ϟ。)” (I admit defeat...)
Gui conceded with a tone of helplessness.
It could sense that within those artificial five seconds Qiuqiu had created, he could have inflicted a lethal blow and made it the objective reality.
The potential of the Time system is truly incomprehensible.
It felt like it needed to invest more research into spatial power now.
Having received Gui’s surrender, Qiuqiu gave the black robe a satisfied pat before reverting to his usual Time Gap Spirit form. He swaggered back to Lin Su’s side, basking in the obvious admiration of the other three companions.
Indeed, Big Brother remains the undisputed Big Brother.
“You guys...”
The "surprise" prepared by Qiuqiu and Gui had genuinely stunned Lin Su.
It was clear that these two had been secretly mastering some truly formidable abilities.
And without question, this was a positive development.
“In this team match, Qiuqiu and Youyou have secured two victories, while Gui and Yingying have one.” Lin Su paused briefly, “As I mentioned before, the winners can try to challenge the combined form of Gui and Yingying. You two...”
“Nuh! (⑅ŏᴗŏ⑅)” (Not challenging for now!)
Youyou shook its head in refusal.
This team match had provided much to contemplate; it needed time to process the gains, so it chose to save the challenge for later.
“Meow! (。òωó。)” (I’m not challenging either!)
Qiuqiu also declined with a shake of his head.
Having felt the incredible efficacy of the Secret Technique at Time’s End for the first time, Qiuqiu was eager to practice it further on Blue Star, preferring to delay the challenge.
“Then the third team match concludes here.” Lin Su smiled, observing that everyone except Tata was lost in thought, clearly having gained new insights. “Go and reflect on what you've learned.”
As he spoke, the four little ones vanished instantly.
Tata blinked, wearing an expression that suggested, “I am the only one truly reliable in this house.”
“Tack~ʕ◉ᴥ◉ʔ” (I’ll stay and keep Lin Su company~)
“Tsk tsk tsk, these pet beasts of yours...” Standing nearby, Qin Nan finally lowered her camera, only now recovering from the shock.
Lin Su’s pet beasts had truly been an eye-opening experience for her today.
She had always known Lin Su was a freak when it came to Cultivation and training pet beasts, but she hadn't expected them to reach such monstrous levels.
It was completely nonsensical!
“Just a bit of luck,” Lin Su replied with modesty.
His thoughts drifted toward tonight’s journey to Shenwu and the upcoming entry into the Lingxia Secret Realm.
After that, his Beast Taming Space would likely surpass Qin Nan even faster in its breakthrough to the eighth tier, which would probably leave her stunned for quite a while.
“Luck?” Qin Nan rolled her eyes. “No wonder my grandfather says you’ll eventually provoke him to death. If you don't want to explain, you don't have to make things up.”
Mentioning Qin Yunzhang, Qin Nan gestured with her camera. “Can I send a copy of today's footage to my grandfather?”
“No problem,” Lin Su agreed without a second thought.
Grandpa Qin was family, after all.
“Great.” Qin Nan laughed and immediately sent the recorded file.
...
Deep within the Miao Blue Beast Zone, at the palace of the lord, Wei Miao.
Wei Miao, currently in a humanoid form composed of water elements, was in the middle of a discussion with Shen Yunshan when Qin Yunzhang’s voice suddenly rang out as if he had seen a ghost.
“Holy cow?!”
