Beast Taming: The Beginning of Hatching an Ancient Dragon

Chapter 21: The Chaotic Blood Feast

【Chaotic Blood Feast】： Devour all that is inedible, returning to the origin. — The feast has begun, indulge in the consumption!

Compared to the previous two functions, this newly activated one was evidently more potent and sinister.

According to the explanation of this function, Li Chang’an could choose to acquire skills or attributes upon killing a supernatural creature, or plunder the life essence of the opponent, transforming it into the most primal life energy to replenish himself.

There was only one soul message on the third page, left by the only one among the seven predecessors who activated the hunting notes to the seventh page.

It read, “Do not indulge in the pleasure of devouring life energy.”

It seemed that this was how the predecessor met his end.

Li Chang’an initially thought of utilizing this vampiric-like function in the future, but this message served as a warning.

Before becoming the true master of the hunting notes, it’s best not to do so.

Master?

In an instant, a flash of insight crossed Li Chang’an’s mind. He wondered if this function belonged to the seventh page,

and perhaps the middle five pages were destroyed by him, hence only the remaining three pages needed activation.

But the hunting notes still remind him of the existence of ten pages, which might mean he can create his own five pages of abilities!

Thinking of this, Li Chang’an felt a surge of motivation.

But he also reminded himself that the abilities of the hunting notes are bizarre, and each use brings negative emotions.

It’s like cross-dressing; there’s only zero times and countless times.

Once he tries it for the first time, Li Chang’an isn’t sure if he can control himself.

Without true confidence, it’s best not to risk it.

Leave it all to Mao Mao!

I’m such a genius!

Mao Mao: I’m not human, but you’re really a dog!

Li Chang’an exited his meditative state and apologetically said to Wen Miaohua, “Sorry for worrying you.”

Wen Miaohua, still concerned, said, “Are you sure you’re okay? Maybe you should see a doctor.”

Li Chang’an refused, holding Yao Yao and explaining, “It was just a surge of one of my abilities. Each time I use it, there’s a lot of negative emotions.”

Hidden behind Wen Miaohua, Xiao Bai’s eyelids twitched violently,

Hey hey! You looked like you were about to stab me with a knife just now.

Remember, I was in the beast space earlier, and the killing intent that penetrated the beast space isn’t something that can be explained by just a large degree!

Wen Miaohua’s face showed even more worry, “Maybe let Uncle Li find a doctor in Yujing; they can solve even the most troublesome abilities.”

“No need, I’ve already found a way.”

Wen Miaohua and Xiao Bai looked puzzled, and Li Chang’an smiled warmly, “Facing malice, crush it with even greater malice.”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Bai’s face twitched, but considering his speculation, there’s really no flaw in this kid’s words.

After all, the greatest malice in the world is not recognizing one’s own malice and calling it “kindness.”

Coincidentally, there’s a group of “unconscious” powerful monsters in the world.

If it weren’t for the pure malice on this kid, he would have thought that Li Chang’an had already embraced the evil gods.

Wen Miaohua was somewhat confused by Li Chang’an’s method; it sounded reasonable.

But something felt off.

Xiao Bai rolled his eyes, almost laughing in frustration.

Our cabbage has been taken from the root, and expecting this girl to notice anything abnormal,

is like hoping Li Chang’an will behave in the future.

Xiao Bai concluded that “this kid is fine” and returned to the beast space to sleep.

Li Chang’an checked the time and realized over two hours had passed, so he took Wen Miaohua back to the room where the students were gathered.

Fortunately, it was work hours earlier, and there weren’t many people near the rest area, otherwise, the aura emanating from Li Chang’an would have put the research institute on high alert.

Returning to the institute’s hall used for press conferences, as it’s spacious, it’s most suitable for accommodating students during this period.

“Teacher Lin, Teacher Fu, what are you doing?”

As Li Chang’an and Wen Miaohua walked in, they saw two teachers commanding their beasts to suppress a red-eyed white-armored rhinoceros.

The younger Teacher Lin, seeing the two geniuses of the senior year return, kindly explained, “Ding Jia’s beast entered an awakening period after the contract and unexpectedly awakened its bloodline.”

Another Teacher Fu added, “Ding Jia can’t control it, so we’re suppressing this white-armored rhinoceros until it finishes awakening and regains its senses.”

Entering the awakening period and awakening its bloodline?

Such a joyous… event is rare!

Li Chang’an remembered Ding Jia, a girl from a boxing family, hence quite tomboyish.

She’s quite popular among the senior girls, known as “Brother Ding.”

If it weren’t for her slight sobbing now, with her flat chest, one might think a young master was being bullied.

Wen Miaohua also peeked out from behind Li Chang’an, her straight and rounded white silk legs taking a step forward, her chest heaving.

It looked as if Wen Miaohua’s head was resting on Li Chang’an’s shoulder, appearing very intimate.

Noticing the arrival of Li Chang’an and Wen Miaohua, Ding Jia’s pitiful expression stiffened.

Clearly noticing the difference between herself and Wen Miaohua.

The white-armored rhinoceros, with its enhanced bloodline, struggled again, causing headaches for the two beasts suppressing it.

They couldn’t hurt this robust young beast, nor let it escape.

What a hassle!

Li Chang’an brought two chairs and shared the specially brought spiced melon seeds with Wen Miaohua.

Unfortunately, Wen Miaohua didn’t eat them; she usually prefers light food, like stir-fried shrimp.

Li Chang’an enjoyed this essential snack for watching dramas.

The sound of cracking melon seeds echoed in the quiet hall.

The fragrance of the spiced melon seeds made Teachers Lin and Fu join in the cracking.

Seeing this, the white-armored rhinoceros became even angrier, its limited young beast intelligence and the inflated sense of power made it think you’re disrespecting me.

Come on, dare to mess with me!

The white-armored rhinoceros glared, accidentally meeting Li Chang’an’s gaze.

The little rhinoceros instantly fell into an endless bloody black tide.

What kind of feeling was that?

The purest malice and the most chaotic killing intent were like two distinct spheres, mixed together without any aesthetic,

yet this chaos harmoniously merged in one person.

And it was directing malice at this person.

The bloodline awakening within the white-armored rhinoceros immediately stopped, then receded at an even faster pace.

Damn it, seeking death isn’t done like this!

The so-called bloodline awakening is essentially acquiring a strong spiritual memory of an ancestor, leaving that ancestor’s time within oneself.

The ancestral will within the white-armored rhinoceros dissipated at the fastest speed upon touching the two auras lingering on Li Chang’an.

It feared that the two wills behind Li Chang’an would track it down and kill it offline.

The white-armored rhinoceros’s red eyes became clear instantly; without the power from bloodline awakening, the little rhinoceros didn’t even have the courage to look at Li Chang’an.

Curling up under the protection of its forelimbs, shivering.

Teacher Lin put the melon seeds in his pocket, with a hint of regret, “It seems the bloodline awakening failed.”

Ding Jia, still grieving, was dumbfounded, failed?

My big dragon-blooded white-armored rhinoceros is gone?

A woman’s intuition told her that the failure of the white-armored rhinoceros was related to Li Chang’an.

Noticing the direction the white rhinoceros was avoiding and where Li Chang’an was sitting, Ding Jia was even more convinced that Li Chang’an was behind it.

Instantly, a surge of anger rushed to the tomboy’s heart, breaking her already limited rationality.

Ding Jia wiped the tears off her face and angrily shouted at Li Chang’an, “Li Chang’an, was it you who did this!”

“Are you jealous of me getting a powerful beast, afraid that my Xiao Guai will affect your status, so you sabotaged its bloodline awakening!”

Ding Jia’s voice was loud, drawing the attention of all the students in the hall.

Li Chang’an: Huh? Did this tomboy’s brain get waterlogged by the Blue Lake Dog’s water gun?
