Beast Taming Patrol-Chapter 792 - 261
Chapter 792: 261
It didn’t allow Qiuqiu’s ice rule power to reach the sixth stage, instead, it raised the spiritual rule power to the third stage, progressing shoulder to shoulder with the ice rule power.
At this, neither Lin Su nor Qiuqiu felt disappointed.
The comprehension of the ice rule power could be pursued on their own, after all, they had a grasp of the basics.
But for the comprehension of the spiritual rule power, Qiuqiu still had little clue up to now.
In that sense, they had actually gained.
“Are we continuing to the seventh level next?”
After sensing his current comprehension of the rule powers, Qiuqiu asked eagerly, itching to try.
The seventh level, the last of the Extreme Cold Ladder.
What rules it contained, Lin Su could not be sure.
But clearly, the power of the rules there must be extraordinary.
In response to Qiuqiu’s question, Lin Su didn’t answer directly but instead looked up, glancing at the highest seventh level of the ladder.
Within the Extreme Cold Ladder, each level had slight differences in appearance.
The higher the steps, the more tremendous the energy fluctuations became.
Moreover, there were subtle differences in hue between the first three levels and the following fourth, fifth, and sixth levels.
The final seventh level was different from the previous six levels of the ladder.
It was shrouded in perpetual frost mist, which made it impossible to see the specifics of the steps.
The frost mist that enshrouded the entire Extreme Cold Ladder and slanted downward into the icy lake below seemed to have originated from there.
Gazing at the steps of the seventh level obscured by the frost mist, Lin Su fell silent for a moment before clenching his teeth, “Let’s go have a look!”
With Lin Su’s consent, Qiuqiu leapt lightly, its figure suddenly disappearing into the mist.
In the instant that Qiuqiu’s form vanished, Lin Su’s expression changed abruptly.
At that moment, he could no longer sense Qiuqiu’s presence.
Such an occurrence had never happened on the previous six levels of the Extreme Cold Ladder.
Even on the last three levels that invoked Freezing Spirit, Qiuqiu was only unable to respond to his calls.
Then, through the Guardian Beast Contract, he could feel that Qiuqiu was on the ladder.
But now, that sensation had vanished.
It was as if Qiuqiu had been teleported in an instant to a distant place unreachable by the Guardian Beast Contract.
And this also meant that Lin Su could no longer forcibly summon Qiuqiu back through the Guardian Beast Contract.
His expression grew anxious.
Qiuqiu…how are you now?
…
“Meow? (°ω°)” (Where am I?)
As if the world had spun around, when Qiuqiu opened its eyes again, it found itself in a vast emptiness.
All around was a white expanse of frost mist, obscuring everything from view.
In the emptiness, it seemed as if a force was invisibly supporting Qiuqiu, preventing it from falling.
After surveying its surroundings, Qiuqiu became even more perplexed.
If it remembered correctly, it should have stepped onto the seventh level of the Extreme Cold Ladder.
But now, what was happening?
Could this be the rule of the seventh level?
It cautiously radiated its spiritual power outward, perceiving everything around it.
However, it soon discovered that the rule power of the ice concealed within the frost mist was not particularly profound, being merely the first stage of ice rule comprehension.
Only, the space around was excessively vast.
Even with Qiuqiu’s current spiritual power, it could not detect the boundaries.
Could it be that it was no longer on the Extreme Cold Ladder?
Qiuqiu felt somewhat nervous.
It also realized that it couldn’t sense Lin Su’s existence through the Guardian Beast Contract.
Forget it, let’s take things one step at a time.
Qiuqiu shook its head, then controlled its body to randomly select a direction, continuing onward.
Meanwhile, it maintained the largest range of perception of the outside world with its spiritual power.
Soon, a trace of joy flickered in Qiuqiu’s eyes.
There was a change in the frost mist around it!
At the edge of its perception, the ice rule power contained in the frost mist had changed from the first stage to the second stage.
For Qiuqiu, any change was welcome news.
Without hesitation, Qiuqiu shifted its direction and headed that way.
Before long, its body plunged into a new realm of frost mist.
Sensing the ice rule power surrounding it, Qiuqiu did not hesitate and continued forward.
Soon, it noticed that at the edge of its perception, there appeared the third stage of ice power.
Qiuqiu did not rush to continue forward but instead stopped abruptly in the distance, a contemplative look flashing in its eyes.
This scene felt strangely familiar.
Layer upon layer of frost mist contained different rule powers.
Wasn’t this exactly like how it had climbed the ladder level by level before?
Like the ladder in the outside world, if one could not comprehend the corresponding rules, the frost mist would rapidly freeze them, making it impossible to breakthrough.
So…
Qiuqiu’s eyes suddenly widened.
Could it be that this was the real Extreme Cold Ladder?
Was the one outside just an illusion?
With this hunch in mind, it moved again.
This time, it moved even faster.
The rule power on the first six levels of the ladder was something it had fully comprehended.
To Qiuqiu, the frost mist held no obstacle.
In a mere moment, Qiuqiu plunged into the sixth frost mist.
The rules here matched the sixth level of the ladder exactly.
Upon reaching this point, Qiuqiu clearly noticed the frost mist’s range had shrunk.
This space was like a huge sphere, with the first layer of frost mist forming the outermost boundary, and the second, third layers, and beyond on the inside…
So the location of the seventh level of the ladder…
A light shone in Qiuqiu’s eyes, it looked straight in the direction it was heading and without any hesitation, delved deeper.
