20: Chapter 20 SSS-level Beast Taming Space

"It looks like even for an exquisite-quality beast, drinking so much primary mana nutrient solution in one go is already the limit."

"It will probably take Xiaodao some time to absorb this large barrel of primary mana nutrient solution, and once it digests this large barrel of primary mana nutrient solution, it will definitely make a breakthrough."

"Taking advantage of this time, I must also hurry up and cultivate, striving to break through to the Black Iron Tier today!"

Looking at Xiaodao's current state, Chu Xiu nodded gently, then took a large gulp from another barrel of primary mana nutrient solution.

Boom! ! !

As this large gulp of primary mana nutrient solution went down his stomach, a rich mana source suddenly erupted from within Chu Xiu's body.

Without hesitation, Chu Xiu immediately sat cross-legged and began to cultivate.

...

"Wang Rui, is Young Friend Chu still not out yet?"

Late at night, Gong Jiangtao came outside Chu Xiu's independent laboratory and looked at Wang Rui with a trace of worry on his face as he spoke.

"Director, I've been guarding the entrance of the laboratory all along, and Master Chu has not come out since entering the laboratory today."

At the laboratory entrance, Wang Rui, whose expression looked slightly tired, hurriedly replied, feeling even more admiration for Chu Xiu in her heart.

This was not the first time Gong Jiangtao had come to ask about Chu Xiu's situation.

Starting from noon, Gong Jiangtao would come every two hours to inquire about Chu Xiu's situation.

Since entering the City Defense Research Institute, she had never seen Gong Jiangtao, a director of high position and great power, care so much about anyone.

"Still not out yet? He has been inside for fourteen hours. Could something unexpected have happened?"

"Forget it, whatever. Even if I get blamed by Young Friend Chu, I must open the laboratory door to check the situation. Young Friend Chu must not suffer any mishaps!"

Wang Rui's reply made Gong Jiangtao frown.

However, just as he was about to step forward to open the door, the laboratory door opened automatically, revealing Chu Xiu's figure.

"Young Friend Chu! You've finally come out!"

Seeing Chu Xiu appear, Gong Jiangtao's eyes lit up, the worry between his brows completely dissipated, and he shouted in pleasant surprise.

Opening the door and seeing Gong Jiangtao, Chu Xiu also wore a surprised look. He hadn't expected Gong Jiangtao to be waiting for him at the door, and judging by the look of it, he seemed quite anxious earlier.

So he asked curiously: "Director, is there something you need me for?"

"It's nothing. I just saw that you went into the laboratory and stayed there for more than a dozen hours without even taking a bite of food, so I was a bit worried."

So that was how it was.

Hearing this, Chu Xiu understood, and then said to Gong Jiangtao: "Ahem, it's all my fault for being too immersed in making mana nutrient solution inside and making the Director worried."

"Director, I have already turned 300 magic source flowers into 1,500 primary mana nutrient solutions. Except for the 300 to be handed over, I plan to sell the remaining 1,200 to the research institute."

"Hmm... Wait, what did you say? You've already used up all 300 magic source flowers and made 1,500 primary mana nutrient solutions?!"

Hearing Chu Xiu's words, Gong Jiangtao initially smiled and nodded, but upon hearing his subsequent words, he immediately lost his composure.

Earlier, when Chu Xiu told him to prepare magic source flowers and that the more the better, he had waved his hand generously and allocated 300 magic source flowers to Chu Xiu.

But in his view, these 300 magic source flowers were an amount sufficient for Chu Xiu to use for 3 days.

"That's right, all my primary mana nutrient solutions are in the laboratory, and the Director can go in to inspect the goods."

"It's getting late now, I must go back immediately, otherwise my sister will be worried."

Compared to Gong Jiangtao's shock, Chu Xiu had a calm expression. After greeting Gong Jiangtao, he directly left the City Defense Research Institute.

After Chu Xiu left, Gong Jiangtao finally reacted and hurriedly rushed into Chu Xiu's laboratory.

"They were actually all made into mana nutrient solution! And the effect hasn't diminished at all!"

When Gong Jiangtao entered the laboratory, picked up a primary mana nutrient solution to inspect it, and looked at the rows of light-blue small medicine bottles piled on the experimental table, his expression was incomparably shocked.

...

"Sis, I'm back!"

On the other side, after returning home, Chu Xiu first reported his safety to Chu Yuqing, who was waiting for him to return in the living room.

"It's already one o'clock, you've finally..."

Hearing the movement, Chu Yuqing immediately breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Chu Xiu, preparing to lecture him.

"Sis, I'm fine, you don't need to worry!"

However, before she could finish speaking, Chu Xiu shouted without looking back, and then rushed straight into his room under her surprised gaze.

"You brat, to think I worried about you the whole night!"

Chu Yuqing looked in blank astonishment at the door that closed with a bang, and only after a long while did she react, unable to help complaining.

After confirming that Chu Xiu was fine, she turned off the living room lights and returned to her room.

"System, I want to draw a prize!"

Inside the room, Chu Xiu hurriedly opened his attribute panel.

Not long ago, he had successfully broken through to Black Iron 1-Star inside the laboratory of the City Defense Research Institute.

Along with the breakthrough of his strength, the system once again rewarded him with 100 achievement points.

The reason he was so eager to return to his room was precisely for the prize draw.

With a thought from Chu Xiu, the lucky turntable rapidly spun once more.

Every time a draw was made, the item rewards on the lucky turntable would be refreshed completely.

As the lucky turntable slowly stopped, the pointer, amidst Chu Xiu's excited gaze, gradually came to a halt on a tiny golden area.

"Holy shit! It hit gold again!"

Seeing the turntable slowly stop, Chu Xiu instantly jumped up from his bed in excitement.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining the SSS-grade Beast Space!"

At the same time, a pleasant voice resounded in Chu Xiu's mind.

Boom! ! !

Almost simultaneously, a loud noise rang in Chu Xiu's mind, and his consciousness subsequently sank into his body, appearing within a huge space.

"This... Is this the Beast Taming Space? It's so big?!"

"I am only a Black Iron Tier Beastmaster, yet I've acquired a Beast Taming Space in advance, and it's even SSS-grade!"

Observing the huge space inside his body, which had mountains and rivers and resembled a world of its own, Chu Xiu was incomparably shocked.

According to his understanding, Beastmasters only have sufficient capability to open up a Beast Taming Space when they reach the Gold-tier.

Of course, there are also some uniquely talented Beastmasters with powerful backgrounds who can open up a Beast Taming Space in advance, but they must at least reach the Silver Grade.

Besides, the Beast Taming Space is also graded, divided from low to high into seven levels: E, D, C, B, A, S, and SS.

The higher the level of the Beast Taming Space, the larger the space, and the faster the boost to the growth speed of the beast.

An E-grade Beast Taming Space can increase the beast's growth speed by 2 times, D-grade by 4 times, C-grade by 8 times, and so on.

An SS-grade Beast Space is enough to increase the beast's growth speed by 128 times!

However, according to the teachings of his head teacher Yang Cheng, those who open up an A-grade Beast Taming Space are one-in-a-million geniuses, and those who open up an S-grade Beast Taming Space are even rarer.

Those who possess an SS-grade Beast Space number only three in the entire Shenxia Empire, and they are currently the nation-guarding pillars of the Shenxia Empire, whose might shakes all directions.

As for Beastmasters possessing an SSS-grade Beast Space, before today, none had ever appeared across the entire Blue Star, so Blue Star had never classified Beast Taming Space levels above SS-grade.

"According to the existing Beast Taming Space grading, the growth speed boost of an SSS-grade Beast Space to the beast should reach 256 times. I wonder how my SSS-grade Beast Space is?"

Feeling the vastness of the SSS-grade Beast Space inside his body, Chu Xiu moved his mind, summoned his attribute panel, and looked up.

[ Chu Xiu ]

[ Level ]: Black Iron 1-Star

[ Talent ]: None

[ Beast Space ]: SSS-grade (Beast growth speed * 256)

[ Beast ]: Dark Blade Mantis

[ Achievement Points ]: 20

"As expected, my guess was right. Now I'll put Xiaodao into the Beast Space to see the effect!"

After seeing his attribute panel, Chu Xiu wore a smile and released the Dark Blade Mantis from the beast-taming bracelet.

Before the Dark Blade Mantis could even react, he pulled it right back into his Beast Space.
