Chapter 389: How to Handle It When You Become the Subject of the Gossip You Were Eating!

"It is merely a preliminary enhancement of the bloodline."

"You are not yet a true Kui Ox, so stop shouting so loudly."

Ye Bai rubbed his ears, which were ringing and buzzing.

The sound emitted by this Thunder Battle Ox, which had successfully undergone bloodline transformation, made Ye Bai feel vaguely uncomfortable.

However, this fellow did not seem to take Ye Bai seriously, instead stretching its throat to continue roaring.

At the same time, it slammed its hooves heavily against the glass display case, attempting to escape from here.

Ordinary bloodline enhancement experiments require great patience and many research assistants to record the experiment together.

Of course, Ye Bai is the exception; his brain is the best calculator, capable of easily recording massive amounts of data results.

The bloodlines of one Thunder Battle Ox after another began to activate, while those Thunder Battle Oxen unable to fuse with the Kui Ox bloodline became extremely irritable.

They were jumping around restlessly inside the glass display cases, their sharp horns occasionally slamming into the glass, producing thumping sounds.

The result of incompatible bloodlines is that the cells of these Thunder Battle Oxen are devoured by the highly erosive Kui Ox cells.

The Thunder Battle Oxen then become mindless vessels, eventually dying of breathlessness.

These Thunder Battle Oxen that failed the fusion kept roaring until they finally stood still against the glass display case and completely lost their breath.

Ye Bai suddenly let out a sigh of relief.

"It's a good thing they didn't Self-Destruct, otherwise cleaning the glass display cases would take a while."

"I just don't know how these Thunder Battle Oxen with Kui Ox cells taste."

The beef of a Thunder Battle Ox is hailed as the best marbled beef in the world; one only needs to swish it briefly in clear water to experience a wonderful sensation of tingling on the tip of the tongue.

Ye Bai had originally prepared to hold a feast if the experiment failed, and now it had become even more joyful.

Ye Bai used a robotic arm to move the lifeless Thunder Battle Oxen out of the glass display cases and placed them into the Lengku for storage.

Out of a total of ten Thunder Battle Oxen, four were lost in battle this time.

Only six successfully entered the next round.

"It seems bloodline concentration is not the key to success; there must be other factors, I just haven't found them yet."

Ye Bai wrote this sentence in his notebook.

As long as he can ensure one Thunder Battle Ox evolves into a Kui Ox, his experiment will be a success.

A Kui Ox can combine with other Pet Beasts, thereby giving birth to a new species.

This is the next topic of Ye Bai's research.

As long as Ye Bai successfully researches the Kui Ox, he will have achieved a great merit.

"I wonder if the remaining six Thunder Battle Oxen can handle the strain."

Ye Bai muttered a few words.

In order to make the Thunder Battle Oxen completely awaken the Kui Ox bloodline, he had still made a detailed plan.

But he was afraid that the Thunder Battle Oxen wouldn't be able to withstand it and would kick the bucket.

What Ye Bai awakened was the Truth Eye, not the Fate Eye, and he did not know whether these Thunder Battle Oxen would move in the direction he hoped for.

Or if they would all drop dead on the path of transformation without exception.

"Next, I need to prepare a Thunder Secret Realm, just like when I cultivated the Positive Electric Rabbit and Negative Electric Rabbit, I need to simulate the place where the Kui Ox lives."

According to the ancient Classic of Mountains and Seas, the Kui Ox has one foot, no horns on its head, and is a greenish-blue color.

It brings wind and rain, its roar is like thunder, and it lives in the outer seas far from the continent.

Whenever a Kui Ox appears, there must be a Storm.

Therefore, summoning wind and rain must be one of the Kui Ox's skills.

Ye Bai must create an environment where the Thunder Battle Oxen can experience the summoning of wind and rain.

He took out the Secret Realm prepared by the butler just now, activated the Secret Realm key switch, and instantly appeared on an island filled with thunder.

On the island where thunder intertwined, ink-black dark clouds covered the entire sky, as if they were a heavy lead curtain, blocking the horizon tightly without leaving a single gap.

One could not even see their own fingers in the surroundings.

Just at this moment, streaks of Thunder Light fell from the sky, slamming heavily onto the island.

The violent thunder and lightning struck the island, emitting a deafening sound, like the roar of the Thunder God.

The boundless sea surface, under the reflection of the Thunder Light, appeared black at times and emitted a Weird white light at others.

The thunder rolled, deafening, spreading out toward the sea.

At this time, gusts of Gale blew over, as if they could blow away the dense thunder.

The island had ancient trees reaching the sky, their branches dancing wildly in the Gale, and the leaves were all blown away by the Gale.

This kind of tree is called a Thunder-Struck Tree; its appearance is purple, its body is bare, and if you peel off the bark, you can even see the wisps of Thunder Light seeping through from beneath the bark.

It can be used as fodder for the Thunder Battle Oxen; it is said that biting into it gives a tingling, numbing texture.

Some young people seeking excitement even make cigarettes out of the bark of the Thunder-Struck Tree.

It is just that this kind of cigarette is like the pufferfish of the real world; if not handled properly, one might lose half their life.

From the depths of the forest, the roars of Exotic Beasts could be heard from time to time; they were panicked and trying to find a Banan Suo.

These were all Exotic Beasts that Ye Bai had specifically asked the butler to find in order to stimulate the Thunder Battle Oxen.

These Exotic Beasts were ferocious and wicked, all of them monsters, which were truly very suitable for tempering Dahui—no, the Thunder Battle Oxen.

Some Exotic Beasts that could not dodge in time would be hit by the thunder, emitting waves of meaty fragrance.

Of course, these unlucky ones might also be torn apart and eaten by hungry Exotic Beasts.

Above the island, lightning circled like a golden dragon in the high sky; it wove between the dark clouds, and every time it appeared, it brought dazzling light and endless thunder.

Raindrops fell in torrents amidst the continuous thunder, and the roaring rain lashed the sea, stirring up waves of white foam.

This is the Secret Realm that Ye Bai specifically chose for the Thunder Battle Oxen.

As the master of the Secret Realm, he can improve the climate and environment of the Secret Realm.

In order to make it easier for the Thunder Battle Ox to evolve into a Kui Ox, Ye Bai also placed countless Thunder Stones on the island.

In this way, with the Thunder Battle Ox in such an environment, it can accelerate the transformation of the Kui Ox bloodline.

Just now, Ye Bai had already sent every single Thunder Battle Ox into the island without leaving one behind.

However, the moment these guys landed, they were struck by thunder falling violently from the sky, smashing them until they were holding their heads and crying.

"I also have to give the Thunder Battle Ox some time to buffer."

"Let it clear up for two hours every four hours; that can also give the Thunder Battle Ox time to adapt to this climate."

"Otherwise, I'm afraid that after the Thunder Battle Ox gets drenched by so much rain, it will be rained into stupidity."

There is no place on the island to take shelter from the rain, which is the reason why Ye Bai chose this Secret Realm.

Imperial Capital University has collected many Secret Realms, and I don't even know where the steward found this one.

But one thing is beyond doubt: this Secret Realm is solely under Ye Bai's control and is very safe.

All things and all beings cannot escape Ye Bai's discerning eyes.

Ye Bai secretly made settings and changed the Storm environment within the Secret Realm.

Finally, the thunder and lightning gradually weakened, the dark clouds began to disperse, and streaks of faint moonlight pierced through the clouds and sprinkled onto the island.

The Exotic Beasts that had been dropped onto the island finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The raging thunder from just a moment ago had already scared them out of their wits. The wind was blowing so hard they were about to fall into the sea.

Even the rain was like a breach in the Heavenly River, leaving these Exotic Beasts in dire straits.

At this moment, as the sun cleared up, they finally had a feeling of surviving a disaster.

As for the stronger Exotic Beasts, they had no such concerns; they strolled leisurely in the rain, looking as if they were taking a casual walk in a courtyard.

However, judging from the expressions of these Exotic Beasts, they seemed to treat this place as a game.

"Dahui, you should stay in this Secret Realm and comprehend the Thunder Law."

Ye Bai wanted to take this opportunity to let Dahui condense the Thunder Law and take the final step.

The environment on the island is also helpful for Dahui to condense the Thunder Law.

This is also why Ye Bai agreed to research cloning the Kui Ox from the very beginning.

He wanted to let Dahui condense the Thunder Law; as long as the Kui Ox could be successfully researched, Imperial Capital University would turn a blind eye to this kind of "wool-gathering" behavior.

Reading the original text!

Ye Bai placed the Kui Ox Hoof and Kui Ox Skin into the Secret Realm, and the sky that had originally begun to clear up became covered with dark clouds once again.

"The Thunder Battle Ox will need to adapt for a few days after coming in here."

"I need to make arrangements to stimulate the wild nature of the Thunder Battle Ox."

The Kui Ox is naturally a combative Exotic Beast, so Ye Bai released many Exotic Beasts on the island, which can stimulate its wild nature.

However, the Thunder Battle Ox might also be hunted by other Exotic Beasts.

And Dahui is like a supervisor, managing the entire island; if the Thunder Battle Ox suffers casualties, Dahui will still have to manage it.

Dahui looked at himself in surprise, pointed at his own nose, and revealed a Weird expression, as if to say, "Me? How do I deal with being a bystander who ends up being the subject of the drama!" "Yes, that's right, it's you."

"You should go in and properly comprehend the Thunder Law; this law is extremely important."

"Your hope of breaking through to the seventh rank lies in this Secret Realm."

"Rest assured, the good things I asked for from Imperial Capital University this time have all been buried in this Secret Realm."

"With these good things, there should be no problem for you to break through."

"Dahui, you still need to have more confidence in yourself."

Dahui was slightly speechless; where was he resisting, and where did he lack confidence?

He just didn't want to get soaked by the rain.

Ye Bai waved his hand, and Dahui fell into a Black Hole.

He was performing free-fall motion at high altitude, and with a bang, a large pit appeared on the island.

Dahui's head was stuck deep in the sand pit, and he struggled for a good while before pulling his head out.

The heavy rain poured down, and Dahui hated rainy days the most.

Because rain would make him remember the time he escaped from the Laboratory; he was acting like a madman, going crazy, and finally collapsed in the alleyway when his strength was exhausted.

The rainwater landed on Dahui's dense fur, and the fur stuck tightly to Dahui's body.

In no time, Dahui had become a drowned rat.

Dahui staggered forward, and the power of thunder on his body flashed by.

With a crackle, violent electric currents burst forth from Dahui's body.

The surrounding rainwater was instantly evaporated, and a patch of charred black color appeared on the ground.

The Thunder Axe appeared in Dahui's hand.

Amidst the thunder and lightning, Dahui walked toward the center of the island like a Thunder God descending to the mortal world to undergo a tribulation.

That's right, he is no longer the weak self he once was.

If that person appears in front of him again, he will have the strength to fight.

Thunder Light can dispel darkness and dispel death.

When he was weak, Dahui asked his inner self more than once what he would do if he met that man again.

Run, run as far as possible, do not implicate Ye Bai, and do not let Ye Bai fall into danger—this is what Dahui thought in his heart.

But as his strength gradually increased, and as Ye Bai became one of the Twenty-Eight Mansions, Dahui's thoughts changed.

He wants to Guard the softest part of his heart; he wants to Guard the person he cherishes the most.

This is the person Dahui thinks is worth Guarding for a lifetime, so no matter what, Dahui will never let go.

Kill the gods if you meet gods, kill the demons if you meet demons.

As long as he still had a breath left, he would absolutely not let anyone harm Ye Bai.

Even if he were to die, the Thunder Battle Axe would uphold his final will and fight the enemy bravely.

Dahui panted heavily, and the power of thunder poured into its body like rainwater, helping it comprehend the Thunder Law.

Ye Bai was secretly observing Dahui's every move.

At this moment, Dahui was targeted by a Mountain-Bordering Frog.

This Exotic Beast was the size of a small hill, and its tongue was thick, sturdy, and sticky.

Usually, it would disguise itself as a small hill and lie quietly on the ground, only moving when it was hungry or encountered an attack.

The Mountain-Bordering Frog slowly opened its eyes, its pupils watching Dahui as it walked over step by step.

It grinned, revealing ferocious sharp teeth.

Then, the Mountain-Bordering Frog suddenly spat its tongue at Dahui; this tongue rushed toward Dahui like a giant python.

A cold glint flashed in Dahui's eyes: "You little punk, I discovered you long ago."

The Thunder Axe was held high by Dahui, and with a swift strike, the Mountain-Bordering Frog's tongue was directly severed by Dahui.

However, the moment this severed piece of tongue landed on the ground, it sprang out like a python.

Dahui raised the Thunder Axe to resist; hearing a "Clang!", Dahui's web between thumb and forefinger went numb, and it retreated several steps.

"After the Mountain-Bordering Frog's tongue is Cut, the central nerves inside can still be manipulated by the Mountain-Bordering Frog, just like a Clone of the Mountain-Bordering Frog."

"Moreover, after the Mountain-Bordering Frog's tongue is injured, its cells will rapidly divide, and its tongue will quickly regenerate."

"It just depends on whether Dahui realizes this."

Dahui's strength is very high, but its combat experience is not very rich; this time can be considered as cultivating combat experience for Dahui.

Two sounds of breaking through the air attacked simultaneously, and Dahui had already pricked up its ears completely.

It gripped the Thunder Axe tightly, and the thunder battle armor on its body emerged.

Dahui swung the Thunder Axe and slashed fiercely in the direction of the Mountain-Bordering Frog.

The axe blade pierced the Mountain-Bordering Frog's defense, and the Mountain-Bordering Frog was in heart-wrenching pain; it had never suffered such a heavy injury.

Dahui suddenly pulled out the Thunder Axe, and earth-yellow blood scattered all over the ground.

Even the tongue that had been severed from the Mountain-Bordering Frog was split in two by Dahui in one go.

Bang, bang, bang.

Dahui walked over through the Storm, while the Mountain-Bordering Frog's eyes were filled with a look of terror.

It would die, it would die; if it didn't escape, it would die.
