213: Holiness (the aura acquired from spending a long time with Holy Spirit-type Beast Tamers)

Just like that, the three of them spent a full day in the Radiant Mist Land, lasting until 8 PM.

Aside from the Beasts that actively attacked them, they didn't even find a single hair, let alone a Holy Spirit-type pet.

Moreover, they also encountered many classmates or Star Dome University students with similar goals.

But it was clear that everyone had come up empty-handed.

It seemed the Beastmasters who had been there before had swept the place too clean.

All the meat was eaten, and not even a drop of soup was left.

Li Wen and Chu Yu only sighed in response, appearing somewhat regretful. They had actually been mentally prepared for such an outcome; it was only the thought of winning a lottery-like grand prize that kept them going.

In almost an entire day, with everyone roughly searching the marked routes, they had already explored a quarter of the area.

“Then let’s spend three more days.”

“I don’t want to give up just like that.”

Li Wen did not easily end this search, and Chu Yu also nodded; he was equally unwilling to give up.

Lin Shu, of course, had no objections. Although the chance of finding a Holy Spirit-type pet was incredibly slim, the day’s harvest was quite substantial.

His proficiency alone had reached 1328 points. While it wasn't much compared to the previous Beast Tide, Lin Shu was already satisfied.

In any case, there was no way he would leave here so soon.

Such a good treasure land required him to stay a bit longer.

Immediately, the two of them exited the Radiant Mist Land. There were hotels outside where they could stay, and with good amenities, they certainly couldn't let themselves suffer.

And the hotel owner's information was truly well-informed; he had actually built it here in advance. He truly deserved to earn money!

After a day of searching and fighting, the group was naturally a bit exhausted. They quickly checked into their rooms and went back to rest.

Lin Shu entered his room, took a quick shower, and then began to allocate the proficiency points he had gained today.

Black Night Saturn Ziyu and Silver Spirit stood to the side, perfectly aligned.

Without rushing to allocate points, Lin Shu pondered for a moment before speaking.

“Recently, I plan to first raise Black Night to level 80.”

“Then prepare for its evolution.”

“So, the allocation for everyone else will be less.”

“Everyone needs to be mentally prepared.”

Saying this was naturally to prevent any misunderstandings.

It wouldn't be good if they harbored any resentment later.

But it was clear Lin Shu had overthought it; Tǔ Yào Purple Eyes and Silver Spirit were both very rational, shaking their heads like rattles, showing extreme understanding.

However, it was inevitable that they would feel a little bit of discomfort.

Lin Shu was very pleased by this. This was truly good; everyone had grown up.

Black Night had originally wanted to show off his status in his master's heart, and his hand movements were already ready, but seeing everyone's reaction, he felt a bit embarrassed to do so.

He then raised the silver-white dagger in his hand, pretending to sweep something away.

His appearance was as strange as could be.

Lin Shu laughed heartily at this. “Black Night, you’re really interesting, kid.”

He no longer delayed and began to allocate points for him.

(Proficiency: 1872)

Adding the proficiency accumulated from skill training over the past few days, this was the total.

Without hesitation, he spent 1285 proficiency points to raise Black Night’s level to 73.

Considering the remaining few hundred points, he decided to give them to Tuyao.

As the sole frontline tank, his strength couldn't fall too far behind, otherwise, he wouldn't be able to protect himself.

He then spent 488 points to raise Tuyao to level 57.

Remaining proficiency: 99 points.

Looking at these, Ziyu and Silver Spirit, though a little regretful, peered out with their bright, watery eyes, but they were also mentally prepared.

Black Night and Tuyao were the sharpest sword and the thickest shield in their master's hand.

Currently, improving them was what helped their master the most... The next morning, Lin Shu, Li Wen, and Chu Yu appeared in the Radiant Mist Land.

By today, the number of people was significantly less than yesterday, indicating that most had given up after a fruitless search.

This was only human nature; why persist in something that was highly unlikely to yield results?

Walking through the mist, Li Wen began to chatter about some things he had learned from the forums.

“I’m starting to lose confidence.”

“Yesterday, I read all the posts related to the Radiant Mist Land and the Shadow Grotto on the forums, and I even checked the Star Dome University forum.”

“Not a single person found a Holy Spirit Type or Evil Spirit Type Beast…”

His tone gradually became somewhat dejected; clearly, these messages had severely dampened his self-confidence.

“It’s useless to say all this.”

“Just treat it as a trip and enjoy the scenery.”

Chu Yu said this, with a sense of finding joy in hardship.

Lin Shu also advised:

“Let’s see it through. Until the very last moment, who knows what the outcome will be?”

Li Wen listened to their words and nodded heavily.

Yes, it was already like this; being anxious was completely useless.

Immediately, they continued exploring the areas they hadn't covered yesterday, step by step.

Walking along the misty paths, everyone's eyes scanned their surroundings, wanting to see every corner.

And just as the group passed a small stream, they immediately spotted several Greenwood Rats cornering a small rabbit glowing with golden light.

Under a towering tree, the golden-glowing rabbit's body continuously flickered with light, transforming into a pair of golden wings, and it flew straight up to a tree branch, letting out a long sigh of relief, looking down with a terrified expression.

The several Greenwood Rats, with bloodthirsty and ferocious expressions, used both their hands and feet to try and climb up, but the tree was too tall, dozens of meters high, which meant their small stature prevented them from having any means to ascend.

“Hiss, hiss, hiss!”

They could only let out resentful sounds, continuing to intimidate the golden-glowing rabbit above.

They attempted to scare it down from the tree.

At this moment, Lin Shu and the others watched this scene without rushing to intervene.

Li Wen and Chu Yu looked at the golden-glowing rabbit, finding it somewhat familiar.

This seemed to be a rare Light Type Beast.

And it was also a Beast specifically used for auxiliary healing, and not only that, its attack power was equally not inferior to most Beasts.

It was a type of Beast that could be cultivated in two directions.

“I remember now, this is a Golden Silk Spirit Rabbit!”

“A rare Light/Gold dual-type.”

Li Wen quickly racked his brain and recalled its name.

He couldn't help but rub his hands. Although they hadn't found a Holy Spirit-type pet, the Golden Silk Spirit Rabbit wasn't bad; it was perfectly suitable for contracting.

As he spoke, Chu Yu also nodded knowingly, his memory suddenly becoming vivid as he recalled the general information about the Golden Silk Spirit Rabbit.

“That’s right, it’s a type of Beast that can be cultivated in two directions.”

“This Golden Silk Spirit Rabbit is also very rare; it can definitely be contracted and nurtured.”

Chu Yu agreed with Li Wen's words; most Beastmasters would not refuse such a Beast.

However, just yesterday, Old Song told him that he was trying to help him get an Evil Spirit Type or Holy Spirit-type pet.

So, he wouldn't consider this Golden Silk Spirit Rabbit either.

It would be good if Li Wen contracted it, and judging by his expression, he clearly liked it very much.

Lin Shu checked the information on the panel, and then light burst forth in his eyes.

[Status]: Panicked, Sacred (aura contaminated by prolonged contact with a Holy Spirit-type pet)

Unexpectedly, through a twist of fate, he actually discovered traces of a Holy Spirit-type pet.

Lin Shu immediately became inconspicuous. This Golden Silk Spirit Rabbit should know where the place was.

So, the immediate priority was to rescue it, then have Li Wen contract it, and then ask for the specific direction.

“It suits you well.”

“First, clear out those Greenwood Rats.”

“The rest is up to your ability.”

He then gestured with his eyes to Black Night, who was beside him.

The latter immediately understood, and with a few nimble movements, arrived near the giant tree.

“Alright, alright, I’m not picky.”

“This Golden Silk Spirit Rabbit will do.”

This trip wasn't a complete waste; after all, the Golden Silk Spirit Rabbit was a very good Beast.

Li Wen made up his mind, intending to contract it.

After all, he had many empty slots now, and it was time to cultivate other Beasts…
