Beast Taming: the More the Better Chapter 572 - 265: Qian Yi’s Eight Trigrams Escape! The Sword of the Fifth Gear!_2

Not only him but the others were clearly curious as well.

All of a sudden, Qin Erlong gave a slight start. Because at this moment, he actually felt an aura being born on the small Paperman, Qian Yi, rapidly growing in strength. In just a short period, the amplification of this aura had already surpassed that of the previous Paperman!

And with the support of the Five Elements power, the Paperman’s energy circulation burst forth, its body surrounded by the energy of the Five Elements. Five Paper Swords were already lined up, appearing in front of it!

Qian Yi drew out the Fire Sword.

Even Su Ping was slightly startled when he saw this. Previously, when it was just the Five Elements Paper Diagram operating on its own, he had seen its effects. But now, the Five Elements Paper Diagram was starting to operate *on* the small Paperman. This was the first time Su Ping had seen the small Paperman activated in such a manner. After all, Qian Yi had never controlled the abilities of a Five Elements Body before. In fact, from start to finish, it had only adapted for this short while on the journey here, inside the Beast Taming Space.

Su Ping had figured out that the so-called First Gear mode involved channeling the Fire Element Energy through one Grand Circulation and then locking it into that state. That was correct. Under Qian Yi’s control, even without completing five Grand Circulations during the intergenerating process of the Five Elements, and despite only achieving a twofold increase in power, it chose not to further enhance its energy’s essence, opting instead to increase its quantity. This resulted in its current state: if it wished, it could shift through five ’gears,’ allowing it to fight at five distinct power levels!

In just a few blinks of an eye, the Five Elements Energy on its Five Elements Body completed one Grand Circulation. It was as if a layer of rainbow ribbons had appeared on Qian Yi’s body. At this moment, it was no longer the strange Paperman clad in a colorfully patterned windbreaker, but a deity in a feathered robe.

Everyone was amazed by the Paperman’s transformational form, but at that moment, the Emperor Peony in the center of the garden, the Queen of Myriad Flowers, slightly ’furrowed its brow.’ It, too, felt the surge in the strange Paperman’s momentum.

This seemed to confirm that the Emperor Peony, the Queen of Myriad Flowers, was correct in its assessment.

Because, in the next moment, WHOOSH! The blade whistled, howling like a fierce wind. This strike, swifter and more ferocious than the previous Fire Phoenix’s Inferno, swept across the sky. The large Golden Sword Rose was instantly cleaved in two by the flame-enveloped sword.

Just moments ago, the battle had been a stalemate, with neither side able to gain an advantage. But now, after the small Paperman entered the ’First Gear’ state, it ended the fight with a one-hit kill.

"HISS!"

At this moment, even Qin Xiaoxue’s eyes widened.

However, it wasn’t over yet!

Sensing the strength of the small Paperman, which had now entered a berserk mode, the Queen of Myriad Flowers dispatched a Narcissus the instant the Golden Sword Rose fell. The Emperor Peony had certainly noticed. The small Paperman’s Fire Elemental Energy was potent, so it deployed a plant with Water Element abilities to counter it.

This Queen of Myriad Flowers didn’t care much; as an Emperor Level Pet Beast, it had a profound understanding of Pet Beasts. It also recognized that the small Paperman’s Realm and energy aura had suddenly surged. It concluded that the Paperman must have used some ’taboo’ Skill for a rapid boost in strength.

Just as the Emperor Peony expected, the moment the Cold Mist Narcissus appeared, the surging flames on Qian Yi dissipated like smoke. Its continuous ’Qian Yi Fire Sword’ strikes, amidst the spreading cold mist from the large Narcissus, hadn’t even gotten close before they diminished from a blazing Fire Phoenix’s Inferno to mere scattered sparks.

"WAAH!"

The small Paperman sensed its body suddenly become damp and increasingly heavy within the moist, chilly fog. Its abstract A-shaped face betrayed no emotion.
