Beast Taming: the More the Better Chapter 804 - 349: Rainbow Lucid Butterfly! Four Seas Dragon Palace!

Radiant liquid-like colors swirled into a physical form, wrapping tightly around the Rainbow Coral Worm, which had just recently broken free from its pupa-like shell. This spectacle, however, was not the typical illumination generated by Jewel Stars. It was the authentic Light of Evolution. Su Ping had witnessed this brilliant glow accompanying the evolution of his Pet Beasts more times than he could count, and seeing it once more filled him with deep contentment. The Myriad Spirit Beast Atlas had never once failed him. Despite the abstract and mysterious nature of its evolution process, the results remained consistently extraordinary. He could only wonder what capabilities the Rainbow Coral Worm would possess once its transformation was complete.

A heavy silence hung in the air; even the Water Dragon beside him observed Su Ping with a grave expression. Meanwhile, the Ray Saint acted deep in thought, remaining quiet and lost in his own contemplations. Su Ping paid them no mind, his focus narrowing entirely onto the metamorphosis of the Rainbow Coral Worm. The wait was brief; because the Rainbow Coral Worm’s original level was so low, its evolution progressed with surprising swiftness. Within ten minutes, the pulsing rainbow glare gradually faded into nothingness.

A fresh, shimmering light began to emerge and pulse. The former Rainbow Coral Reef and all the various resources from the Jewel Stars were nowhere to be found. In their place stood a creature of breathtaking beauty. Even Su Ping felt a momentary surge of shock upon his first look. With every flutter of its iridescent wings, tiny specks of rainbow light rained down into the air. The creature appeared ecstatic, emitting a peculiar squeaking noise. As it moved, it displayed the agility to dart through the air and skim directly across the surface of the Heart of Water, even diving into the depths with ease. It could navigate both the sky and the water? Su Ping was momentarily stunned, though the creature finally seemed to burn off its excess energy from the successful evolution. Catching sight of Su Ping watching, it gracefully beat its wings and settled onto his palm. Only then could everyone clearly identify the creature: it was a butterfly. Its wings shimmered with such intensity that they mirrored every hue of the rainbow under the sunlight. Between the constant fluorescence radiating from its body, it was hard to distinguish anything beyond the radiant wings themselves. It appeared almost as if it were a pure Light Element entity formed entirely from brilliance.

“Squeak, squeak, squeak...” The strange chirping resounded once more. A light, ticklish sensation brushed against his palm, as if the creature were nudging it. The butterfly stopped flaring its wings, appearing remarkably affectionate. Marveling at its exquisite appearance, Su Ping activated his Eye of Truth’s evolution talent, locking his Spirit Vision Eye onto the fluttering creature. In the world of Breeders, the Rainbow Coral Worm was considered a truly rare Pet Beast. Now, through Su Ping’s cultivation, it had completed an evolutionary path that hinted at the legendary and theoretical Special Dragon Breed, the Rainbow Dragon. Moments later, the creature's data imprinted upon his mind: [Rainbow Lucid Butterfly - Wild, Age: one year four months]. [Attribute: Light, Water]. [Current Realm: Common Tenth Level]. [Racial Potential: Elite Tenth Stage]. [Skills: Rainbow Nest (Proficient), Rainbow Aurora (Proficient), Water Beast Control (Beginner), Dragon Energy (Beginner)].

Su Ping had certainly never heard of a Rainbow Lucid Butterfly before. Its racial potential was middling, but compared to its previous form as a simple worm, this advancement definitely satisfied him. After all, turning an insect into a dragon was a feat requiring far more than a single evolution. Still, possessing four inherent skills was quite an impressive start. Pondering this, Su Ping took a closer look. The Rainbow Aurora was a known quantity, a remnant of the Rainbow Coral Worm’s base abilities, designed to infuse water with energy to nourish Aquatic Pet Beasts. Aside from its utility, it could also manipulate visual spectra for optical stealth, though it lacked any direct offensive power. The Water Beast Control skill was exactly as the name implied: over time, any aquatic creature influenced by its Rainbow Aurora would grow to obey the Rainbow Lucid Butterfly’s guidance to some extent. This influence wasn't forced, which ironically made it more effective. Even some Commander Level beasts would instinctively shield the butterfly if it were ever in danger. While it couldn't command those beasts to attack on its behalf, the protection was more than enough to ensure its safety. Thus, even without personal offensive power, the little creature would face very little peril while submerged in the water.
