The Greatest Beast Tamer of Earth

Rishi had found out about three suitable shadow beasts whose abilities he wanted to use. They all had unique and decent abilities that had their own advantages.

The first one that caught his eye was the Phantom Crystal Golem. It was one of the shadow beasts that had reached this place by sensing the shadow energy.

He was a really strange creature. It was a phantom-type creature. Usually, these types of creatures don't have strong abilities.

They depended on their curse skills or possession skills, but this creature was different.

It had an ability called Crystal Creation, which allowed it to change shadow energy into crystals.

That was nothing special, but the main thing came after it. When the multiple shadow beasts attacked it, this creature created multiple crystals and defended himself.

If it were this much, Rishi would not have thought much. What it did next was even stranger.

It controlled the crystals and threw them at the opposite ends.

Shadow Beasts looked at the small, one-inch crystals thrown at them and wanted to laugh. What could these small pebbles do to them?

However, just as they were a little careless, these crystals absorbed the shadow energy in the atmosphere and became larger.

Even this didn't intimidate the Shadow Beasts, as they used their abilities, like Shadow Orbs and Death Beam, to blast them to pieces.

What happened next was beyond their expectations. These cysts, each two meters long, shone in a purple light.

After that, the spells bypassed these cysts, and they hit them. While the damage was not enough to eliminate them, multiple shadow beasts were injured.

This made many of them mad, and they charged at the beast; however, the Phantom Crystal Golem simply extended the size of the crystals around him and hid.

The Shadow Beasts attacked the creature, trapping it. Again, the crystals shone in purple light, and the spells went past them.

Only the crystal that the creature was inside was solid. With almost endless shadow energy in the environment, this creature could easily defend itself.

It even counterattacked by rubbing salt in the wounds of the shadow beasts. Whenever the shadow beast charged at it to do physical damage, it pushed the crystal forward.

The crystals shone in purple light before again becoming normal. The next moment, the creature found himself trapped.

If that was not enough, each of these crystals was as hard as steel. It took multiple attacks even to make them crack.

This weird ability made multiple Shadow Beasts struggle to reach it; however, there was still a limit to it.

A stronger shadow The beast controlled its shadow and took it down. In front of this strange technique, it was helpless.

Still, due to its weird ability, they didn't eliminate it and brought it to the head of the hideout. Night Owl spared its life after making it sign a contract with the help of humans.

He was a strange one, and Rishi liked its ability; the only bad part was that it had little control over these crystals.

The bigger the crystal, the harder it was to control, and the more time and shadow energy required to make it bigger.

Due to these limitations, Rishi didn't choose this ability earlier. But now that he considered merging several abilities, this piqued his interest.

The second was also a strange creature, but this one was something that was here. It was made up of smoke.

If looked at from afar, it would appear as a humanoid spirit wearing a large black cloak.

From close, its face looked like a human wearing a white mask with only two holes for eyes.

This was called the Dark Hunter; it was a terrifying creature. It had extreme stealth and could disappear at any moment.

It relied on its big sharp claws to deal massive damage, but its hunting style was different.

This creature had a strange ability. This ability was called 'Shadow Lance.'

It was able to create a terrifying lance made up of shadow energy. The strange thing was that it was able to summon it from anywhere.

This Shadow Lance had a very high penetration ability.

If it fired at a creature from the front, that creature would not be able to defend against it.

It could pierce through even tough armor and scales of strong Elite Stage beasts; it had unheard-of piercing ability.

That was not even the worst thing; it could blast it manually.

It was a powerful offensive ability, but it also had limitations.

The first was that it had a very high cost and could not fire more than three at once.

The second was interference. It could be intercepted earlier by blasting it with another skill.

It would explode when damaged.

However, this ability was powerful when used to snipe from Shadows.

This was a perfect choice; he wanted his skill to replicate the unheard 'Peirce' effect and 'Exlode' ability.

While the other two had their own uniqueness, this last one was even stranger.

This last creature was called the Dusked Quill Serpent. It was a large, four-meter-long Serpent Magic Beast with multiple big quills attached to its back.

This creature had scales on the rest of its body the size of a bowl, all in a rhombus shape.

It was brown with black scales and a dark blue shine, like a peacock's feathers.

This creature's abilities that impressed Rishi were called 'Shadow Quill Transfer. This ability allowed it to teleport its quills.

For example, it launches one quiz at the Human Tank Class, and he raises his shield to defend it.

What would happen if he used it to defend from the front only to discover it piecing his body from the back?

These quills did not deal much physical damage, but they were coated in lethal poison. What was worse was that the effect of the poison increased the more quills it managed to land on the opponent's body.

Its poison had 'paralysis' and 'Shadow Burn' effects. Shadow poison burn was similar to the Burn effect from Fire Element.

It made the opponent lose some percent of his HP each second. Each quill could make the poison stronger.

If the first quill makes an opponent lose 0.5% HP per second and the second one 1%, this cycle will continue till 10%, which was the limit.

Even a strong beast with very high defense would run out of HP when facing this Bizare ability.

After deciding, he now needed to choose between the various effects. He also needed to find a way to overcome various limitations.
