Beast Taming: the More the Better Chapter 776 - 338: The Preliminary Completion of the Heart o

"Hello! Have you found the exit?"

"..."

Only echoes responded in the entire hall of mirrors. Beyond that, it was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. There was no reply, no footsteps; just Li Shu’s increasingly heavy breathing and heartbeat.

Li Shu turned to look around. In this world made of countless mirrors, it seed as though nurous Li Shus were looking back at him. He could clearly see the increasingly panicked and fearful expression in the reflections.

But at this mont, Li Shu swallowed hard and forced a weak smile.

"Cut it out, Guan izi! Where are you?"

"Brother Bai!"

"Sister Qing!"

"Newcor!"

In the cold world of mirrors, no other voice ca through.

Without much thought, Li Shu almost instinctively wanted to summon his Pet Beasts. At this point, he couldn’t care less if it would destroy this Reflected World. Even a glance makes it clear that sothing’s seriously wrong here! Yet, what chilled him to the bone was the absence of any response from his Pet Beasts, Pinecone and his second Contracted Beast, Forest Wolf. Linked by his Soul Contract, they would normally respond at a mont’s notice.

What’s going on?

What the hell is happening with this place?

Li Shu truly panicked now. The countless reflections in the mirrors made him feel as if he were on pins and needles. This was especially true when he looked behind him in the mirror maze and saw his own terrified face staring back, looking so strikingly lifelike.

Run!

At that mont, the only instinct Li Shu had left was to run.

Run!

Behind him, the myriad reflections of himself seed to turn into bizarre Undead Pet Beasts, chasing after him as he ran.

Thankfully, Li Shu hadn’t completely lost his mind. He followed the path from his mory toward where he had been before. He especially rembered that strange place: he distinctly recalled a fork in the path that hadn’t had a road before!

Could it be there?

Yes, it must be there!

Gasping for breath, Li Shu ran hard in that direction. Although unsure, he knew that hope was the most important thing at this ti!

His mory was clearly excellent. Even though it was easy to get disoriented in a labyrinth like this, he had, after all, only been walking for a few minutes. Finally, Li Shu felt he was getting closer.

Turning at a fork, the anxiety that had gripped his heart finally eased, because at the end of the road, he saw two familiar figures. At that mont, the sight of Guan Lili and Zhao Qingqing was incredibly comforting; those few minutes felt like an eternity.

"Guan izi, Sister Qingqing?"

He waved his hands hurriedly, but oddly, the two figures at the end of the road seed not to see him. His pace slowed. Then, he was within three ters of them. Li Shu reached out his hand.

THUD.

His fingertips seed to hit sothing, as though an invisible barrier separated him from the people so close by. He even heard their conversation.

"Where has this Li Shu run off to?"

"Calling him is no use. Brother Bai has already found the exit. What’s this guy still doing in here?"

Guan Lili snorted. "Don’t I know him? He’s probably hiding sowhere, just waiting to scare again. When he’s not cultivating Pet Beasts, he’s always up to no good. Bro Ping has already reprimanded him so many tis. In my opinion, we should just leave him be. Let’s see how Bro Ping scolds him later."

"Breeder Su is ready and waiting for us over there. This guy really picks the worst tis for his jokes."

Zhao Qingqing looked helpless.

However, the two won seed utterly oblivious to Li Shu, who was less than two ters in front of them, looking at them with a face full of fright and even despair.

"I’m right here! Right here! Stop joking around! Bro Ping is waiting for us!"

Li Shu shouted until his voice was hoarse, but the two won in front of him didn’t glance his way even once. They turned the corner and continued on their way.

The two distinct figures disappeared without a trace.

Li Shu collapsed to the ground, powerless. In the 360-degree world of reflections, countless versions of him did the sa, as if mocking his helplessness and retaliating for his contempt for these ’broken mirrors’ just a mont ago. At this mont, Li Shu had no capacity to care about the nurous reflections surrounding him.

He finally understood sothing.

It seems I’ve entered the world within the mirrors...
