Beast Taming: The Empress Is Shocked After Peeking Into My Future

164 The Red Rune

Seeing Shen Fei like this, Aloy had no choice but to helplessly say, “If that’s the case, I’ll keep it.
But if you need anything in the future, just let me know.”

Aloy’s words warmed Shen Fei’s heart.
‘This girl is really kind.’

After the two of them sat for a while, they started to talk about other topics.

“Aloy, I have a question, but I don’t know if I should ask you.”

Aloy looked at him hesitantly, then she gave him a smile.
“Go on!”

“Why are you so familiar with the things inside the wormhole? It’s almost as if you’ve experienced it before.” Shen Fei had already asked this question two or three times, but he always felt that Aloy was still being secretive.

When she heard his question, Aloy revealed an awkward smile and said unhurriedly, “Because my father has a lot of books about wormholes.
I learned about them from those books.”

Shen Fei nodded slightly when he heard her response.
It seemed that his previous guess was correct.
Aloy and the wormhole were inextricably linked.
It was just that she did not seem willing to tell him about it, nor would he force her to.

Either way, with Aloy’s strength, even if she were to encounter any danger, her life would not be in danger.

“Alright, since you don’t want to tell me, I won’t force you.” Shen Fei waved his hand.

“Thank you for understanding.” Aloy smiled sweetly at him.

After the two of them chatted for a while, Aloy left.
The night fell, and the stars twinkled.

Shen Fei sat cross-legged on his bed, quietly adjusting his energy.

He had already awakened his second talent.

[S-class talent, Ability Absorption, has been replaced by SS-class talent, Ability Devourer ]

[Ability Devourer: In addition to absorbing the opponent’s ability to strengthen your own spirit beast, you can also obtain a temporary talent from each spirit beast that has been killed.
This temporary talent can be used a certain number of times, and it will stop after it is used up.]

As he thought of this, Shen Fei’s expression turned strange.
Judging from his Ability Devourer talent, his S-class talent should be to absorb the energy of the enemy’s spirit beast’s bloodline and then provide it to his own spirit beast.
But why “absorb” it?

However, Shen Fei changed his mind.
This is not a bad thing.
At least, it can increase the bloodline power of the spirit beast! Moreover, he had only just awakened his second innate ability, and he had not done anything else yet.

Shen Fei reckoned that this second talent should be integrated with him, allowing him to master more powerful abilities.
At this moment, he was showing signs of a breakthrough.

The energy in his body slowly began to surge.
Shen Fei could feel that his skin, muscles, and bones were all undergoing some sort of transformation.
At the same time, a huge amount of energy was slowly gathering in the energy core within the depths of his mind.

Rumble!

Finally, Shen Fei’s eyes snapped open! In an instant, the once dark sky suddenly bloomed with a dazzling light! Then, a red glow appeared like a flame, illuminating half the sky!

Shen Fei slowly stretched out his right arm, and saw a strange marking on his wrist, as if blood had clotted there! And on Shen Fei’s left arm, there was a red rune!

A flame marking and a thunder marking.
The two lines were both constructed from special energy.
If touched, they would explode with destructive power! But at this time, in Shen Fei’s body, that mysterious force actually formed a prototype of a pill!

“Eh? Did I have a breakthrough?” Shen Fei looked at his right arm in shock.
He could feel that his current strength was much stronger than before.

“It seems that my second innate talent is much more powerful than I thought.” The corner of Shen Fei’s mouth curved up.
He could feel that his body was surging with energy, and it was endless.

It was a very magical state.
If one had to describe it, it was like taking a stimulant! Shen Fei felt that he could blow up the house with a single punch!

He tried to wave his hands and feet a few times and found that his control of strength was much more precise than before.
In fact, even his speed had increased significantly! Shen Fei knew that this was due to his talent.

For S-class talents, compared to A-class or B-class talents, the most obvious difference was the talent’s capabilities.
The S-class talent could allow him to improve his various stats for a short while, whereas the A-class and B-class talents could allow him to improve his various attributes for a short while.

The biggest difference between A-class and B-class talents was the different attributes, which would affect the attack power, defense power, movement speed, and other aspects.
For example, if it was a strength attribute, it would lead to a decrease in movement speed, attack speed, recovery ability, and reflex fatigue.
Of course, this kind of innate talent was usually only for a single attribute.
If the attributes did not match the wielder, this innate talent would be useless.

The ability of S-class talents also had other wonderful uses, such as increasing lifespan and so on.
In general, S-class talents were very powerful, to the point of going against the natural law of things.

Shen Fei could feel the majestic energy in his body and could not help but lick his lips.

“Flame Owl,” Shen Fei called out in a low voice, then a giant bird covered in red flames appeared in front of Shen Fei out of thin air.

The Flame Owl was an extremely rare flame beast.
It had a huge body which was burning with terrifying flames.
Its combat power was heaven-defying! Even steel could easily melt under its terrifying flames!

The Flame Owl had wings and could fly through the clouds.
It was extremely fast and was one of the most suitable spirit beasts for traveling! Not only that, but it also had many auxiliary functions! For example, it could release poisonous gas, frost, fireballs, and even breathe fire!

It was simply lethal!

Back then, the Flame Owl could be said to be the weakest spirit beast that Shen Fei had ever seen.
However, following the evolution of the Flame Owl during the previous fight with Lear, its strength had only reached Marquis rank.
If it could be upgraded to Count rank, then its strength would double!

Most importantly, Flame Owls had an extremely strong fire attribute.

“Coo, coo!” The Flame Owl let out a cry, indicating that it knew its master needed help.
However, his Flame Owl, in its current state, could not reach Count rank yet.

Shen Fei looked at the crystal ball that he had placed earlier and muttered, “I hope that these things will be effective on you.”

After saying that, he picked up a branch and gently swiped it at the crystal ball.

Swish…

Instantly, the crystal ball emitted a soft white light that gradually spread.
Layer after layer of white light rippled outward.

In the end, when the white light disappeared, it was like the entire world had fallen into darkness.
However, in this pitch-black world, there were two red dots of light.

These two red dots of light were like the sun, emitting a dazzling radiance, as if they wanted to expel the surrounding darkness.
