Divine Beast Creator

Chapter 2400 - 2401: New Objectives

Qi Chen and Dou Yanlan battled for a long time, but ultimately it was Qi Chen’s talent that prevailed. After all, Dou Yanlan relied on meticulous calculation and control to confront formidable foes, yet over time, lapses were inevitable.

Dou Yanlan wasn’t too bothered about losing to Qi Chen. She was well aware of her weaknesses and knew she wasn’t suited for direct confrontation.

"The effect is nice, quite beautiful."

Dou Yanlan exchanged glances with Qi Chen and smiled slightly. She didn’t expect herself to buy such bizarre crystals at a tourist spot, but practically speaking, these strange crystals were indeed remarkable, unique, and rather useful.

After all, altering the appearance of an ultimate move carelessly could impact not only the opponent but also the Spirit Beast’s control over the move, especially for a Beast Tamer like Dou Yanlan who excels in precise operations.

However, after some field tests, Dou Yanlan found that the strange crystals had limited influence on precision operations, at least within her acceptable range.

To achieve this, it’s obvious that the cheongsam-wearing lady invested a lot of effort. But it’s not surprising, considering that selling strange crystals in a place like Hot Springs Town would naturally yield higher quality than the commonly seen crystals.

"Hehe, this time the travel souvenirs are quite nice. But aside from strange crystals, should we buy some local snacks?"

With one hand messing up Xiao Ji’s feathers, Feng Yuan said, and the girl, upon hearing Feng Yuan’s words, thought seriously and said

"If you want to buy local snacks, you can buy them fresh at the snack street for consumption within two days. Beyond two days, I suggest buying semi-finished products from the souvenir street for longer preservation."

"Hmm, semi-finished products might be okay, but will the taste be worse?"

"Of course, semi-finished products ensure longer shelf life, so the taste won’t be as good as fresh ones. But food that’s fresh won’t be edible after two days."

The girl was also helpless about this matter; taste and preservation time inversely correlate, leaving her with no solution. Thinking of something, Feng Yuan’s eyes shifted towards Agunas and said

"Actually, it’s not impossible to preserve fresh ones from the snack street either."

"Can’t be done, right? Unless you add preservatives, how can it be kept longer?"

Before the girl could say anything, Qi Chen spoke up, and Feng Yuan chuckled and said

"It’s not entirely impossible, this needs help from Agunas~"

Suspiciously glancing at Feng Yuan, Agunas flicked its tail thinking of something and said

"You plan to use time stasis to preserve food? It’s feasible, but how will you carry it away?"

Time stasis can freeze the time around food, thus allowing for longer preservation. However, time stasis is a range effect; even if packed, it doesn’t help. In a way, under time stasis, items become fixed with the space around them.

Thus, Agunas didn’t think Feng Yuan’s idea made much sense since under time stasis items can’t be moved, making its use pointless.

"Use Kong Qing’s space, although it’s unreachable under time stasis, the relative coordinate system still exists. If the items are placed in Kong Qing’s space before engaging time stasis, they might be movable."

Agunas looked at Feng Yuan in surprise and flicked its tail saying helplessly

"Unexpectedly astute this time."

Feng Yuan’s proposal wasn’t unworkable. Time stasis doesn’t solidify space but temporarily halts the time for the target and surroundings. If placed in Kong Qing’s space, since the coordinates correspond to that space, moving the space keeps the items fixed in its relative position.

Of course, Agunas wasn’t sure of the outcome; there’s a chance of tearing the space.

But considering Kong Qing is a Divine Beast of space, this possibility is quite low.

"Hehe~ I just want to avoid regrets~"

Scratching his head, Feng Yuan laughed awkwardly. He really didn’t want semi-finished products; for him, if he can achieve the best, why not do so?

"I can try to help you, but I can’t guarantee the result."

Looking at Feng Yuan, Agunas flicked its tail and said, with Agunas’ permission, Feng Yuan naturally wouldn’t give up the attempt. Kong Qing was aware if it failed, it might cause some spatial tears.

However, Kong Qing wasn’t concerned. As a Divine Beast of space, minor tears in space can be fixed at any time, not to mention it felt this possibility was already low.

"Such an unexpected idea, well, since you have no questions needing assistance, I’ll take my leave~"

With her hands behind her back, the girl smiled and turned, leaving with Witch Baby, while Feng Yuan curiously observed the girl and said

"She should be from Hot Springs Town, right? But is she here working as a temp at Hot Springs Town?"

"Hard to say, maybe she wants to do something for Hot Springs Town?"

Dou Yanlan shook her head slightly, uncertain about the girl’s thoughts. Unless necessary, they didn’t feel the need to pry into others’ secrets.

Snow was gradually decreasing, and Hot Springs Town couldn’t just maintain the blizzard indefinitely. Feng Yuan’s group attempted at the snack street, confirming they could use time stasis to carry freshly cooked snacks, they bought plenty of delicious snacks Feng Yuan fancied, storing them in Kong Qing’s space.

As for Qi Chen’s group, they chose a few well-reviewed pre-packaged snacks to take back. Though Feng Yuan mentioned they could be stored in Kong Qing’s space using time stasis, Qi Chen’s group opted to decline.

In their view, it wasn’t necessary to overly trouble Kong Qing, and their pursuit of taste wasn’t as fervent as Feng Yuan’s.

As long as it’s not too bad or lacks its iconic taste, they didn’t mind slightly compromised flavors, considering the snack street offerings were pretty good.

After enjoying a few more hot springs, Feng Yuan’s group returned to their accommodation.

Since they’re leaving tomorrow, Qi Chen’s group busied themselves packing. Feng Yuan didn’t have that hassle; his belongings were always stuffed into Big Cat or Kong Qing’s space.

"Are you planning to head straight back to Maomu City?"

Veronia sat on Rainbow Bubbles, watching Feng Yuan and said. Feng Yuan nodded and replied

"Otherwise? Besides Hot Springs Town, there’s probably not much fun left in Baiman City, right?"

"Not necessarily, the Flames Mine Theme Park seems to have pretty high ratings."

Mysteriously smiling, Veronia said, stealing a glance at Veronia, Feng Yuan suspiciously said

"Did you see something? I wouldn’t expect you to be particularly interested in human entertainments, let alone theme parks..."

Theme parks primarily cater to common folk. For Beastmasters?

Those with lesser power are fine, but for those like Qi Chen’s group, visiting theme parks might diminish the enjoyment significantly.

Roller coasters and such pale in comparison to the speed of beast running, moreover as power grows, the Beastmaster’s tolerance to various environments increases.

In Qi Chen’s eyes, the theme park’s roller coaster might not differ much from a kid’s version; expecting an adult to derive much fun or thrill from a kiddie roller coaster seems a bit challenging.

"Sort of, but it appears the Flames Mine Theme Park has been secretly preparing all along."

Veronia giggled, rotating her phone to show the promotional images to Feng Yuan.

"Hmm, seems impressive."

Scratching his chin, Feng Yuan expressed surprise at the promotional video. For ordinary Beastmasters, this activity seemed like a great experience.

Especially with the video highlighting how using Domain Crystals, they successfully expanded amusement facilities’ effectiveness for Beastmasters.

According to the description, Beastmasters below Elite Level could experience the same joy and thrill as ordinary people.

Nevertheless, whether this holds true or not, Feng Yuan couldn’t confirm. Given Domain Crystals’ multifunctionality, theoretically, doing this isn’t impossible.

"Hmm, I’ll ask Qi Chen’s group. If they agree, we can head there next."

Feng Yuan took out his phone, saying as he borrowed the video from Veronia and forwarded it to Qi Chen. As for whether this disrupts the original plan?

Originally, Feng Yuan’s travel plan was to finish up here then return to Maomu City. Adding a trip to the Flames Mine Theme Park doesn’t affect much.
