Beast Taming: I gained the talent of a spirit pet

Although he was being watched, Gu Yuan didn't panic at all. Instead, he continued to stroll through the streets.

However, the person behind him gave him a feeling somewhat similar to Cheng Gang, with a hint of ferocity.

“Could this person be a martial master?”

Thinking this, Gu Yuan's expression turned serious.

He knew very little about martial masters in this world and didn't know what kind of methods they possessed, but they were definitely difficult to deal with.

Since that was the case, he had to be careful from now on.

After strolling for a while, Gu Yuan suddenly flashed and turned into a small alley.

“Huh? Where did he go! How did this kid disappear in the blink of an eye?”

A middle-aged man with a gloomy face and a hooked nose scanned the area but found that Gu Yuan's figure had already disappeared.

He was immediately shocked and began searching everywhere.

At this moment, Gu Yuan, who was in the alley, opened his attribute panel:

【Beast Lord】: Gu Yuan

【State】: Normal

【Beast Pet】: Mountain Rat (Evolvable to Iron Tooth Rat, requires 30 Dao Rhythm Points).

【Cultivation】: None

【Dao Rhythm】: 49

Gu Yuan obtained 49 Dao Rhythm Points from the scholar Lin Zhou earlier.

Well, 49 is a rather magical number.

At least, these Dao Rhythm Points were enough for the Mountain Rat to evolve into an Iron Tooth Rat!

The Mountain Rat, A'Huang, crawled out of Gu Yuan's arms and stood on his shoulder.

“Squeak, squeak, squeak!”

It seemed to sense something and began to squeak.

【Consume 30 Dao Rhythm Points to evolve the Mountain Rat into an Iron Tooth Rat. Confirm/Reject?】

Gu Yuan touched A'Huang's head and thought, “Confirm!”

In the next moment, on Gu Yuan's attribute panel, the 49 Dao Rhythm Points silently changed to 19.

At the same time, a thin layer of white light began to appear on A'Huang's body surface.

This white light was not bright, but it was filled with a gentle and pure aura, enveloping A'Huang's entire body.

A'Huang's body was undergoing some changes.

Its size was gradually increasing and lengthening, and the yellowish fur on its body was gradually darkening, turning grayish-black.

Its teeth and claws also became increasingly sharp and pointed!

“Squeak, squeak…”

The Mountain Rat, A'Huang, seemed to be in some pain, and its squeaks became sharp and piercing.

However, Gu Yuan sensed from the connection between the two that although it was in pain, it was even more excited.

Obviously, it instinctively felt that this change was greatly beneficial to it!

After a dozen breaths, the light on A'Huang's body began to dim and gradually shrink into its body.

Then, several messages appeared before his eyes:

【Evolution successful, you have obtained the pet Iron Tooth Rat!】

【Iron Tooth Rat (Cyan)】

Introduction: A special kind of rat that likes to feed on metal objects. Because it gnaws on metal for many years, it possesses a set of “iron bones.” It is larger and stronger than ordinary rats, and it is also more aggressive and lethal! Although it has not yet escaped the category of ordinary species, it possesses a high degree of intelligence. To evolve into a “Little Treasure Hunting Rat,” it needs to grow into a mature Iron Tooth Rat and consume 800 Dao Rhythm Points!

State: Growing Stage (26%)

【You have obtained the Iron Tooth Rat's talent “Iron Teeth” buff!】

A'Huang's appearance had changed drastically!

First of all, its size was obviously more than a circle larger than before, its height comparable to an old cat.

The fur on its body had also turned grayish-black, but it was still shiny and smooth, and it felt very tough to the touch. In particular, its limbs had grown sharp claws like curved hooks, shimmering with a cold light.

Its two incisors were even more than an inch long, with a faint cyan metallic luster.

The name Iron Tooth Rat undoubtedly came from this!

“Squeak, squeak, squeak!”

After the evolution was completed, A'Huang excitedly circled around Gu Yuan a few times, its speed much faster than before the evolution.

When it climbed back onto Gu Yuan's shoulder, Gu Yuan felt a weight on his shoulder, like carrying a solid iron weight.

“Not bad, not bad, it looks like you're finally not a weakling anymore. With this appearance, people would believe you're a cat-eating rat!”

Looking at A'Huang's ferocious appearance, Gu Yuan nodded repeatedly, quite satisfied, and then became a little puzzled:

“But what is this Iron Teeth talent? Could it be that my teeth will be as hard as A'Huang's, able to gnaw on metal? If that's the case, then this talent would be a bit useless, right?”

It's not that having hard teeth is bad, but since the Iron Tooth Rat is an evolved version of the Mountain Rat, then its talent should be better than the Mountain Rat's talent.

However, at this moment, Gu Yuan immediately felt some changes occurring in his body.

A numb and tingling sensation began to spread from the bones throughout his body.

Numb, itchy, and at the same time, with an unbearable dull pain, as if someone was slowly smashing his bones little by little with a hammer, while the bone marrow seemed to have many insects eating and crawling around!

This pain became more and more intense, even spreading to Gu Yuan's flesh, as if his flesh was tearing apart, making a slight “creak, creak” sound.

The severe pain caused Gu Yuan's forehead to ooze a lot of cold sweat, and his hands and feet trembled with pain. His teeth were also itchy, painful, and numb, and all kinds of sensations swept over him.

But he stubbornly gritted his teeth and endured it, not making a sound, so as not to attract the attention of others.

After a while, these feelings quickly receded like a tide and disappeared.

“Huff——”

Gu Yuan let out a long breath and suddenly felt a sense of surviving a disaster.

At this time, he felt some changes in his body.

He seemed to have become a little taller, although not much, but it was very obvious, and Gu Yuan also clearly sensed that his body had become much stronger, and even his weight had obviously increased a lot.

It wasn't that he had become fatter, but that kind of full and powerful heaviness. In other words, the density of his bones and muscles was greater, and even his gestures carried a steady sense of power!

Gu Yuan pinched his arm bones and knocked on his leg bones, feeling hard and thick, and couldn't help but ponder:

“Iron bones?”

The Iron Tooth Rat has a set of “iron bones” because it gnaws on metal for many years, making it unusually strong. Not only is it larger than ordinary rats, but it is also stronger and more aggressive and lethal!

As the saying goes, the kidneys govern the bones, and the teeth are the remainder of the bones.

The stronger the bones, the better the teeth!

The Iron Tooth Rat can have a set of iron teeth, and this set of “iron bones” is the key!

That is to say, the talent ‘Iron Teeth,’ strictly speaking, is actually ‘Iron Bones!’

Originally, Gu Yuan was just an ordinary teenager with a weak gait and loose strength, but now, it seemed that looseness and weakness had disappeared, and the whole person had become strong and steady.

The whole person seemed to have been polished and tempered, turning from iron ore into a piece of refined iron, almost undergoing a transformation!
