17 Chapter 17

After killing the demon king Yue yang made xiao wen li put his corpse in her grimoire and let the other beasts clean the area and kill the 2 criminals since they would be good fertilizer for his beasts.

While he was watching them doing their job his grimoire that was always where he left neared him and began shining. He could hear the ancient code voice.

[You succeeded in defeating opponents that were stronger than you thus you received the following points:

For defeating a Hero you received 22 and your evaluation is 6 stars.

Your grimoire had ranked up to intermediate silver thus you received rewards from the ancient code.

You rank rose to braveman thus you received a reward from the codes.]

The bronze grimoire that was shining near him was not the anymore, instead, it was replaced by a shining silver grimoire engraved in heaven runes. Although he couldn't understand them he was charmed by them. It seemed like there was an infinite power in those complicated characters.

He then opened the grimoire and he was surprised to see that even his two inherent skills also leveled up by one. Continuing reading he was only more and more surprised.

These were the following new information Name: Phantom Shadow

[Possession] – Phantom Shadow can take over any beast's body and possessed it like it's its own body. The target must not be of the same gender as the Phantom Shadow's master. Furthermore, during the implementation of [Possession] skill, the target must be alive. The success rate of implementing the [Possession] skill depends on the strength and willpower of the target.

Name: Devourer

[Minor bestowment]- Using this skill the beast can bestow a skill to its master or his beasts registered in the grimoire. The skill bestowed isn't permanent and after a battle, the skill will return to its owner. Only skills above level 5 can be bestowed. Skill only usable after the start of a battle and ends when the battle is finished. The skills with elements can only be bestowed to those with the same element. After bestowing a skill the owner can't use it until the battle ended.

These two new skills of his guardian beats were truly powerful and that's why they have so many limitations. The skill that surprised him the most was [Minor bestowment]. This skill was very handy and if he made use of it cleverly in battle it would be very effective. One other thing is that this skill was only a minor bestowment meaning there was still a major bestowment or other upgrades. Maybe one day the skills bestowed would be permanent.

Continuing reading he also found out that xiao wen li too had gained something. Although it wasn't a new skill her biding had leveled up.

As for his other beasts, they too somehow gained minor intelligence. This reward was very helpful for him and his beasts. If he was able to enhance their intellectual they would have a major chance of becoming holy beasts. He had just decided where to go after resting for some days.

Still continuing reading his grimoire he turned the page and saw that he even had a new beast. Seeing this he couldn't help but think that even the ancient code favored him, to gain so much after a battle was really good.

Vampiric Bat level 1

A beast born from the night. It absorbs it's opponent's blood to become stronger and recover from injuries.

Skill:

Blood clone level 1

Using the blood of its opponents it can create clones that will have half its strength. The clones share their sense even they are far from each other, ( max range 100 meters ). It can also share its sense with its owner. The clones can come in different forms and only after drinking the blood of a new species will it be registered as one of the clone forms. Can only summon 3 clones currently.

Seeing this beast Yue Yang was a little happy. Maybe this beast of his would someday become a divine beast with a lot of familiars like the noble vampires.

After controlling his grimoire he patted xiao wen li who was in his arm and disappeared from the place since he sensed some strong people arriving.

Running he appeared some distance away from the city in a mountain. He wasn't finished yet so he came here to control the barbarian beast before returning.

He made xiao wen li summon it. After being summoned it around before it began to attack Yue Yang. He was already ready and blocked it. The Barbarian bull seeing it attack fails become enraged and it used its doom eyes on Yue Yang but it wasn't really effective on him. He only felt a little pain before it disappeared.

Yue Yang didn't use his shadow ability because he knew that it wouldn't work on a beast with a strong will power like the barbarian bull, so he intended to let it attack him and see the difference between their power so it will begin to panic searching an escape. He wanted it to submit itself to him after seeing that it could neither attack him or escape. He would always let it see an escape route but after it escaped for some time he would appear in front of it and seeing that it couldn't escape it will attack while searching for a way to escape. That was how he wanted to reduce its will power.

And so began the nightmare of the barbarian cow. It was able to resist for an hour before submitting itself to Yue Yang. That made Yue Yang even more surprised at how stubborn and strong-willed this beast was. And that was how he acquired this beast.

Barbarian Cow Shadow: humanoid-type beast, bronze-ranked level 3 half-entity. Guardian Beast with an obstinate character. Owned the skills [Trample] and [Doom's Eyes].
