Chapter 505: Chapter 357 Good Wings

At this moment, Li Yi and the injured Jiang Mingtian were keeping a close watch on the mutant beast, not daring to relax for a second. If the beast was not yet tamed, then Li Yi would have to continue controlling the Fei Mu Needle to slay it; but if they could successfully tame it, it would be a cause for celebration for everyone.

Having the strength of such a mutant beast would be a great help in the contest for the exotic fruits.

"It seems to have stopped struggling. Could it be dying?" said Jiang Mingtian, standing on one leg and leaning against a large tree. He had managed to stop the bleeding and planned to use a life repair pod to recover after this ordeal was over.

"It’s not dead. The intelligent robot has detected vital signs, and it seems that its injuries have stabilized and aren’t worsening. In fact, there are signs of recovery... The vitality of this mutant beast is too strong. My attack just now must have torn open countless gashes in its flesh, and blood was everywhere, but now not only has the bleeding stopped, some of the less severe wounds have healed," Li Yi said with a frown, carefully observing the situation.

"But what exactly is this creature? It can tear through Transcendent metal; fortunately, it’s only in the Soul Realm, and we can still manage to fight it. If it broke through to the Spirit Power Realm, we would have all been wiped out today."

"I don’t recognize it either. After the Sky Tipping event, our world has been full of weird and wonderful things, but I think this creature is close to being of the mythical kind. If we can tame it, it would be an absolute fortune," Jiang Mingtian said.

At that time.

Hu Fei and Zhao Fangji were walking over, dragging their injured bodies. They were bloodied and their battle armors were damaged, especially Zhao Fangji whose arms were broken, and his chest was torn open. Fortunately, the vitals weren’t hit; otherwise, he would have died on the spot.

"Li Yi, how’s the situation? Did we get it?" Hu Fei looked disheveled, his body was fractured in several places, and blood was seeping out, obviously from internal injuries.

"We have the mutant beast under control. Jiang Mingtian and I plan to tame it. How are you guys holding up?" Li Yi asked.

"We’re still alive. I hear you’ve got a life repair pod, and I think I need to use it as soon as possible, or else I won’t last long," Zhao Fangji gasped for air, his chest wound was large and still bleeding, his face pale.

"Alright, you guys take turns using the life repair pod. Everyone else keep watch, just in case other Extraordinary Creatures approach," Li Yi said without hesitation as he took the life repair pod out of the Magic Artifact storage.

Zhao Fangji lay in the life repair pod, sustaining serious injuries.

As the device started up, the bleeding on his chest stopped, and the wound began to heal at a rate visible to the naked eye.

"The Beast Taming Talisman is starting to take effect; we’ll have to wait a bit, at most half an hour before we see the results," Jiang Mingtian said. "Hu Fei, you joined the Golden Academy early on, can you tell what this mutant beast is? I think it’s so fierce, it must be of the mythical kind."

"Not all mythical creatures are necessarily strong. Many creatures, though not well known, have strength and potential that are no less than mythical creatures," Hu Fei said intently. After a while, he spoke with some hesitation: "Based on the data from Golden Academy’s database, I found a very similar existence called... Good Wings."

"But the database had no related images, only a simple description. I’m not very certain, as Golden Academy’s database is still being completed and many creatures’ appearances have not been recorded."

"Good Wings?"

Li Yi frowned.

He wasn’t very well-educated and had never heard of such a thing.

"I thought it was a griffin? So, its name is Good Wings," Jiang Mingtian said. "Does this thing have any special traits?"

"It’s adept at flying, hence the name Good Wings," Hu Fei responded.

"Is that it?"

Li Yi looked at him, waiting for more information, but was surprised to find that was all.

"Yes, that’s it. Nothing more," Hu Fei said. "However, Golden Academy categorized Good Wings among the mythical creatures. I think it must be one of those lesser-known mythical mutants. At least, it’s stronger than the Qingluan Eagle we encountered before."

"It’s definitely stronger than the previous Qingluan Eagle. Even with the bloodline of the Divine Bird Qingluan, it couldn’t manage to shatter our defenses with one strike," Jiang Mingtian said. "Look at your battle armor and my Scale Armor; they couldn’t withstand its attacks."

"Li Yi, if you can successfully tame it, that would be a real treasure trove. This is much stronger than a Thunder Warplane. Thunder Warplanes can’t be upgraded, but this Good Wings can continue to grow. As long as it breaks through to the Spirit Power Realm, in Golden Academy you can walk sideways [have a lot of clout]," Hu Fei said.

"Whether it can be tamed or not, we’ll have to see. First get your injuries healed; we can’t stay here long. We need to move quickly," Li Yi said.

At this moment, the life repair pod opened.

Zhao Fangji, now fully recovered, stepped out. He touched his chest and said, "It’s unbelievable. Such a serious injury has healed in such a short time. If I had known there were so many good things in World Six, I would have taken a trip there as well."

He was amazed at the magic of the life repair pod.

"The life repair pod has its flaws, though. The strength of the body after repair is not as good as before," Li Yi remarked.

"What kind of flaw is that? As long as it can repair the injury, it’s enough," Zhao Fangji said and took a deep breath. Silver light emerged on his skin, interweaving and quickly spreading toward the chest area.

Soon, a silver shield formed in front of his chest, protecting the spot where he was injured just now.

"How many silver exotic fruits did you actually eat?" Li Yi couldn’t help but ask, seeing this. He had eaten ten fruits himself, and only saw some changes in his Gang Qi, nowhere near what Zhao Fangji could do.

"I lost count. I picked all the silver exotic fruits from a tree. I ate what I could, as keeping them seemed pointless," Zhao Fangji replied. "It seems I didn’t eat enough as I couldn’t even fend off that mutant beast’s attack. If there’s a chance, I have to get my hands on more."

"Alright, enough, stop talking. You’re making me envious," Li Yi quickly waved his hand to interrupt his talk.

At this moment, the life restoration pod opened once again.

Hu Fei’s injuries had recovered, and he stepped out, flexing his body before letting out a long sigh of relief: "Luckily, the high-tech armor I’m wearing is of a fairly high grade, otherwise I would have been done for. That blow almost exploded my internal organs; just thinking about it is terrifying. Jiang Mingtian, stop standing there on one leg and hurry up and heal yourself."

"I’m observing the condition of Good Wings to see what’s really going on with it. Li Yi, keep an eye on it. After the Beast Taming Talisman takes effect, you will establish a kind of mind-link with the mutant beast, and you will naturally understand whether the taming has been successful." Jiang Mingtian then bounced over, and he too lay down in the restoration pod, not forgetting to remind Li Yi one more time.

Li Yi remained silent, still vigilant.

But at this moment, a voice suddenly rang out in his mind: "You inherently evil Earth Prisoner, truly luck is on your side to know someone proficient with the Beast Taming Talisman. This talisman is quite special; it’s a Blood Covenant, very advanced. Even I have not seen it before. Moreover, this mutant beast is extraordinary, its blood has magical effects, able to cure a hundred poisons, like the feathered serpent’s venom you encountered earlier, which can be neutralized with this mutant beast’s blood."

"Indeed, in nature, there is an antidote for every poison. However, these two creatures probably come from the same world. You all need to be careful, there’s likely a cross-dimension point nearby."

Li Yi’s gaze remained calm and he did not speak.

Lucky him?

Forget it.

Unlucky for a lifetime, this time it was just his tough fate that had allowed him to survive.

However, at this moment, Li Yi’s expression suddenly shifted, and he looked toward Good Wings.

Good Wings also suddenly turned its gaze to Li Yi.

Both human and mutant beast seemed to have developed a kind of resonance as if they had known each other for years, an indescribable familiarity, even though they had been mortal enemies just before.

This wasn’t just a Beast Taming Talisman, it was practically a brainwashing charm. No wonder Jiang Mingtian had previously wanted to use it on people.

If there was a talisman that could tame humans, then that would really be something.

"It seems the Beast Taming Talisman really works." Li Yi tried to communicate, asking Good Wings to flap its wings, and to his surprise, Good Wings actually did it.

He asked Good Wings to try other movements as well, and Good Wings obeyed the commands one by one.

But Good Wings also cried out, conveying its pain and desire for Li Yi to help relieve its suffering.

It’s only natural that Good Wings was in pain since the Fei Mu Needle was still lodged in its body. Any movement would cause the Fei Mu Needle to slice through its innards and body, continuously inflicting damage. Li Yi had hesitated to remove it, fearing that the mutant beast might suddenly lash out and kill them all.

"Since the Beast Taming Talisman has taken effect, I have to trust it. If we keep restraining it with the Fei Mu Needle, then taming this mutant beast has no meaning at all."

Li Yi’s gaze flickered, noting that Jiang Mingtian had almost recovered from his injuries in the life restoration pod. With a wary heart, Li Yi approached Good Wings again, finally stopping in front of it.

The eyes of Good Wings now appeared exceptionally clear, devoid of previous ferocity and cunning. Facing Li Yi from such a close distance, it showed no intention of attacking.

Li Yi’s heart was still tense; at this distance, if he were attacked, it was highly likely that he’d be finished, with no chance to dodge.

Fortunately, this kind of dreadful situation did not occur.

"I’ll remove the Fei Mu Needle for you; don’t move," he said, then sensed the precise location of the needle and with a thought, acted.

A dazzling divine light broke through the impervious scale armor, flying out of Good Wings’ body, then circling in the air before landing accurately inside a glass bottle on Li Yi’s waist.

The bottle was filled with water, and once the Fei Mu Needle entered the water, its divine light faded.

Free from the constant damage inflicted by the Fei Mu Needle, the terrifying vitality of the mutant beast, Good Wings, began to make itself apparent.

Its subdued aura began to recover rapidly, and the wounds inside its body were healing in an unimaginably fast manner. Moments ago, Good Wings was unable to stand, but now, after resting for less than ten minutes, it could flap its wings and walk, albeit a bit unsteadily. Such is the resilience of creatures in the natural world.

Once able to stand, it meant survival.

If it remained on the ground, it indicated death was not far away.

"Li Yi, did you succeed?" At this moment, Jiang Mingtian stepped out of the restoration pod and saw Good Wings standing before Li Yi, not attacking, and he was both shocked and delighted.

"It seems like a success." After speaking, Li Yi lightly leaped up and landed atop the six-meter-tall mutant beast.

Good Wings showed no resistance, merely shaking its head and issuing a cry.

Seeing this, everyone could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

As long as the creature was tamed, there was no need to fight the mutant beast any longer; the battle had almost left them with a psychological scar.

However, they could not linger here long.

After collecting themselves, the group promptly left, continuing their journey towards the direction of the silver exotic fruit.
