Beast Taming Patrol

But as he looked, Yan Susen couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"This is the first time you've comforted me," he stood up and patted Silver's shoulder as well.

Silver Warriors are a race born for battle, and due to their unique racial traits, they rarely exhibit emotions other than those related to combat, much like expressionless fighting machines.

When Yan Susen initially chose this race as his beast companion species, it was exactly because of this characteristic that he valued them.

Who wouldn't like a beast companion that only knows how to follow orders and has great strength?

However, after acquiring the Guardian Beast Co-operation technique, he found that this type of temperament and characteristics weren't necessarily good.

This would make it more difficult for Silver Warriors to open their hearts to a Beast Tamer compared to other beast companions, making it equally tough to strengthen their bonds.

Now, Yan Susen had finally seen the outcomes of his long-standing persistence.

Silver had actually taken the initiative to comfort him.

This might not be difficult for other beast companions, but for Silver Warriors, it was a significant step forward.

A pale blue light flashed, and Yun Xia appeared at Yan Susen's feet, quickly being cradled in his arms.

Unlike the Silver Warriors, who disliked the comfortable environment of the Beast Taming Space and craved for battle and tempering, Yun Xia's temperament was more indolent, hence he preferred staying inside the Beast Taming Space.

After realizing this, Yan Susen frequently took him back into the Beast Taming Space, leaving only Silver to guard him.

This also conveniently enhanced Yun Xia's bond.

But now that Lin Su and Lu Ziye had both left, he would have to act alone for a lengthy period of time.

Maintaining peak condition and summoning both beast companions to his side had thus become necessary.

"We should get going," Yan Susen said, energized by Silver's encouragement, "After entering the battlefield, I have never been apart from Brother Lin, and to my shame, it has always been him looking after me."

"I need to strive a bit, too…" His eyes flickered briefly before he swiftly took out an ordinary looking Jade Pendant from the Space Ring.

The Jade Pendant was exquisitely made, yet it bore no trace of supernatural power.

Any elite would not pay much attention to it.

After all, such an item was useless for enhancing strength and was merely a plaything.

But Yan Susen valued it highly.

He knew all too well that when he had obtained this Jade Pendant, almost all the Luck Power he had obtained from the Light of Destiny had been consumed.

Ordinary-looking, that was just its appearance.

Originally, Yan Susen thought about following Lin Su and Lu Ziye and seeing if he could discover the use of this Jade Pendant along the way.

Having the chance to travel alone now actually made it a bit more convenient.

"This was exchanged for a beam of Light of Destiny," Yan Susen looked closely at the Jade Pendant in his hand, "Before meeting up with Brother Lin and Brother Lu, we should prioritize finding clues about it to see if we can uncover what opportunities it truly offers."

"I really want to know what effects this Jade Pendant can have." His eyes sparkled with anticipation, "Brother Lu once said that the effect of Luck Power is essentially 'wishes coming true'—whatever one is thinking about, one might actually gain it."

"So that day, I made a wish," Yan Susen smiled, "I wished that I could cooperate with you all like Brother Lin does, and unleash greater strength together, and then I found this Jade Pendant."

He picked up Yun Xia in his arms and started walking towards the distance, with Silver closely following behind him.

"Jade Pendant, oh Jade Pendant, can you fulfill my wish?"

...

In a whirl of dizziness, Lin Su only felt the temperature around him dropping more and more, making him feel as though he was plunging into an ice cellar.

When his feet finally hit the ground, the first thing Lin Su did was to shiver involuntarily.

The temperature here must have reached at least minus twenty or thirty degrees.

He took out a coat from the Space Ring and put it on, while he observed his surroundings.

At the moment, they were in a valley.

In the valley, there was a cold pond about ten meters in diameter, radiating an icy blue glow that was piercingly cold just to look at.

This cold pond, however, wasn't the most conspicuous thing here.

More noticeable than it was a staircase.

A celestial staircase formed of eternal ice suspended in the void.

The staircase had seven levels, and it hung quietly above the cold pond.

From the bottom of the staircase, endless cold mist cascaded down like a waterfall, rippling over the surface of the water and churning all around.

"Is this the Extreme Cold Staircase…" Looking at the staircase in the sky, Lin Su couldn't help but inhale a breath of cold air.

"Correct." Lu Ziye pointed at the cold pond below the staircase, "This cold pond wasn't originally here; the waters of the pond are all gathered from the cold mist pouring down from the staircase, containing a slight amount of Rule Power, making it excellent material for refining spiritual weapons."

"So, the cold pond is just a byproduct of the staircase?" Lin Su couldn't help but inquire.

"All this pond put together, could probably match a level eight resource," Lu Ziye spread his hands, "But if one could perceive a complete set of ice-related rules from the staircase, it would be worth far more than a level eight resource."

Lin Su nodded thoughtfully, "Then Lu brother can have the cold pond; I'll take Qiuqiu and try climbing the Extreme Cold Staircase."

"Go for it!" Lu Ziye nodded vigorously, "The Extreme Cold Staircase has seven levels, each containing different rules; only by passing through one level's test can one proceed to the next level, and if you can reach the highest level, I think it wouldn't be difficult for Qiuqiu to become an emperor species and complete its evolution."
