Beast Taming: My Intelligence System Chapter 905 - 563: Acquiring the Totem God (Part 2)
Previously on Beast Taming: My Intelligence System...
Countless grains of sand coalesced, taking the form of a Sphinx.
"Observe this! A pristine, divinely sculpted Sphinx, crafted by the gods themselves. Not a billion, not even ten million."
"For a mere one million, you can possess a Sphinx personally shaped by divine hands."
"Whether you display it or use it for other purposes, it possesses immense prestige."
"My dear friends, follow your heart and seize this opportunity. Let's begin, one, two, three, click the link."
Ye Bai initiated a livestream, and those intrigued netizens, unfamiliar with the Totem Gods, flocked to witness the spectacle.
Numerous affluent individuals began a bidding war for the Sphinx meticulously crafted by Tuluo.
After all, it was an artistic creation molded by a deity.
"What did you say? Desire a god to sculpt your self-portrait? No problem at all. As long as the funds are available, any request can be fulfilled."
Following Ye Bai's persuasive promotion, Tuluo amassed more Power of Faith than it had gathered throughout its existence. It now willingly toiled for Ye Bai without any need for coercion.
The deity even divulged its true name.
Ye Bai had not anticipated such sincerity from these Totem Gods. Tuluo had now surpassed the Ten Thousand Changes Saint Butterfly, ascending to the position of Ye Bai's most trusted subordinate.
Instruct it to journey east, and it would not dare venture west; command it to proceed south, and it would never turn north.
Ye Bai mused that having such a diligent deity was quite fortunate.
"Esteemed viewers, Tuluo is now fatigued, so let us express our appreciation with some likes and conclude the broadcast."
"The artistic creations fashioned by Tuluo will soon be dispatched directly via hummingbird courier, arriving at each of your residences. I am now signing off."
After concluding the livestream, Ye Bai examined the backend, observing the numerous zeros, and felt an immense sense of profit.
Tuluo cleared the surrounding sand, and the Sunflower Fairy propagated countless duplicates, firmly establishing their roots in this terrain.
They would continue to multiply, stabilizing the soil and transforming this area into a nascent paradise.
"Boss, the artworks are complete."
"Is there anything else required of me?"
Tuluo inquired in a subdued tone.
"Let us set aside the work for the moment; I have something significant to impart to you."
"I have ascertained the location of your Divine Artifact."
Contrary to expectations of Tuluo's elation, it merely responded with an indifferent 'oh' and offered no further reaction.
"Boss, that is not of paramount importance currently. The faith power I am accumulating daily surpasses the entirety of what I had ever gathered before."
"If this rate persists, I estimate I will soon attain the status of a True God."
Ye Bai was taken aback by Tuluo's declaration. Tuluo seemed to be reveling in its newfound wealth, forgetting its humble origins.
"Very well, I shall retrieve your Divine Artifact myself."
However, Ye Bai had scarcely taken a few steps when Tuluo hurried to catch up.
"Wait, Boss, I was merely speaking figuratively, just idle talk."
"That Divine Artifact has been with me for the majority of my existence; I still harbor a considerable attachment to it."
The Ten Thousand Changes Saint Butterfly observed Tuluo with evident disdain, deeming its flattery skills utterly inadequate.
Observe my technique.
The Ten Thousand Changes Saint Butterfly extended its proboscis, lightly brushing against Ye Bai's shoulder.
"Master, is my touch gentle enough?"
"Ten Thousand Changes Saint Butterfly, your audacity has grown, hasn't it? Daring to disrespect my shoulder, do you court punishment?"
Just as a resounding 'bang' echoed, the cry of the Ten Thousand Changes Saint Butterfly erupted perfectly in sync.
Tuluo chuckled heartily, relishing how the Ten Thousand Changes Saint Butterfly's attempt at flattery had inadvertently led to trouble.
Tuluo found the Power of Faith in this realm exceptionally pure, a stark contrast to the diluted essence it had accumulated over its lifetime, which now seemed like mere refuse.
Particularly when Tuluo witnessed Ye Bai casually consign the Evil God to the abyssal depths of the Sea World without batting an eye, its obedience intensified.
The vicinity where Ye Bai was situated was swiftly brought under his control.
Any deities who visited were all either recruited by Ye Bai if they proved amenable, or relegated to becoming garbage within the Sea World if they resisted.
With all matters settled, Ye Bai proceeded to meet the third member of the Heaven and Earth Association, the Celestial Star and Puppet Master, Zhang Dong’an.
"I am the Puppet Master, Zhang Dong’an, a member of the Heaven and Earth Association, and one of the thirty-six celestial warriors."
"I serve under the Law Protectors; are you interested in striking a bargain with me?"
Zhang Dong’an took a casual sip of his beverage while engrossed in a mobile game.
Ye Bai was rendered speechless; had the methods of the Heaven and Earth Association evolved to include gaming?
Games were indeed quite the distraction.
"What is the essence of your message?"
"Whether there will be conflict or not."
Having successfully enlisted several Totem Gods, Ye Bai was now brimming with confidence.
Tuluo's Earth Domain alone would be sufficient to make this Celestial Star hesitate to engage Ye Bai in combat.
"Ah, the martial world is not solely about combat and bloodshed; it revolves around interpersonal dynamics."
"Our intention is to engage in negotiations with you."
"I require your assistance in unsealing a certain entity."
Ye Bai smirked. Who would start negotiations by demanding to unseal something?
"You don't need to attack me; I'm merely a puppet for the moment."
"I just happened to cross paths with you, so I'm extending a greeting."
"However, I must bring one matter to your attention—the president is on the verge of awakening."
"We absolutely must resolve this issue before his awakening, lest his fury be unleashed, leading to dire repercussions."
"Very well, I am but the messenger."
"We sincerely hope for negotiation. Farewell for now."
Celestial Star vanished with haste before Tuluo could unleash his Gravity Domain.
"The Heaven and Earth Association desires to negotiate?"
Upon receiving this intelligence, the National Pillar remained still for a brief instant.
"What, precisely, are they contemplating?"
"Should we convene once more to deliberate on this matter?"
Sheep put forth a suggestion.
"There's no immediate need for that; let's first swiftly clear our respective zones."
"Otherwise, it will inevitably become a considerable nuisance."
A chorus of agreement arose.
"Understood, Ye Bai, come lend me a hand; I've encountered a Magma God, and it's proving quite vexing."
"It persistently tries to trigger volcanic eruptions, and I'm unable to thwart its efforts!"
Sheep, not particularly skilled in direct combat, found himself struggling against the Magma God.
"Very well, Master, I am en route immediately."
The Magma God exuded intense heat, its form coursed with flowing magma, and a volcano-like protrusion adorned its back.
[Name: Magma God (Totem God)]
[Gender: Male]
[Attribute: Fire]
[Trait: Lava Body: Upon contact with an opponent, it will...]
[Level: Tier Nine, Level Five]
[Mastered Skills: Flaming Chain (Control): Materializes into a lengthy flaming chain, striking the opponent with speed, ensnaring their movements, and inflicting continuous burning damage.
Fiery Prison (Control): Its body becomes enveloped in magma flames; when in proximity to an opponent, these flames also engulf them, inducing a soul-burning sensation.
Hellfire (Control): Conjures its innate fire to assault the opponent; upon impact, the opponent's soul is seared.
Magma Arrow (Skilled): Ejects a superheated arrow of congealed magma from its mouth to strike the opponent.
Flaming Heavy Hammer (Control): Forms a flaming heavy hammer, used for attacks. When it strikes magma, it triggers a violent magma eruption accompanied by a falling rock effect.]
[Evaluation: The Magma God draws power by absorbing and consuming magma; its strength escalates the closer it is to a magma source. It reigns as a god of magma but possesses an extreme aversion to water; once drenched, it solidifies into a hardened volcanic shell.]
Ye Bai found Hastar’s strategy to be quite ingenious.
Simply lure this Magma God into the water, employing the Sea God World to subdue it, given that the Sea God World's waters are boundless, leaving nothing but water as far as the eye can see.
"Master, entrust this formidable opponent to me."
Grandmaster nodded, stating, "I shall also take this opportunity to rest; let's observe the method you devise to overcome this challenge."
"Indeed, this Magma God presents a significant threat; getting too near exposes one to its scorching flames."
"My Pet Beast's offensive capabilities have yielded minimal results against it."
"Ye Bai, the task now falls to you; I believe I shall retire and recuperate my aging body."
