Beast Taming, my intelligence updates daily.

Chapter 471 The Arrival of the Rat
"Even King Solomon's treasure, we don't have time to explore."

"The most important thing right now is to escort the divine stone back to Yan Kingdom."

"Let's not put the cart before the horse."

Ye Bai let out a long sigh.

"Lanfa, take a look and see if you can replicate the Sapphire Meat."

Ye Bai used ruby ​​meat, which came from the body of a mammoth, while sapphire meat came from Hekimera.

These are all delicacies of the world, and are rare sights.

“Okay, I’ll give it a try, but it will probably require quite a few crystal cores, since these things come from Hekimera.”

Ye Bai took out a sapphire-sized piece of meat the size of a basketball.

Lanfa held the crystal core and began to replicate it.

A pale blue light gathered around Lanfa, outlining the rudimentary shape of sapphire flesh in the air.

As the crystal cores were rapidly consumed, the prototype of the Sapphire Meat appeared. This time, after Lanfa used up the entire bag of crystal cores, the Sapphire Meat was finally replicated and landed on the prepared large broadleaf with a thud.

"The texture of this sapphire meat is even better than that of marbled beef, with fat covering the outer layer of the sapphire meat like snowflakes."

"Upon closer inspection, I could also detect a faint scent of seawater."

"It should have been placed on a red-hot iron plate and grilled over high heat to lock in the juices of the sapphire meat."

"But there's nothing we can do in this desolate wilderness."

Ye Bai used a sharp knife to cut the sapphire meat into long strips, and then put them on the charcoal fire to roast.

Before long, a strong smell filled the entire cave.

Ye Bai couldn't help but swallow hard.

"It smells so good! I didn't expect to find such good stuff here so soon."

"Sapphire meat, I haven't had it in ages."

The rat emerged from the spatial passage.

He also had a gourd of wine hanging from his waist and a gleaming silver stone in his hand.

That stone gave Ye Bai a very special sense of familiarity.

Just then, the Northern Star Wolf Blade appeared, and they pounced on Zi Shu, or more precisely, on the stone in Zi Shu's hand.

"Big Grey, don't attack our own people."

Ye Bai stopped the giant gray creature wielding Thor's Axe.

Zishu smiled and said, "Kui Mulang, how did you recognize me?"

"I was planning to tease you a little."

Actually, it wasn't Ye Bai who recognized Zi Shu, but Bei Chen Tian Lang Ren who recognized Zi Shu.

"Oh right, I forgot, Beichen Tianlang Blade recognized me and could sense the soul weapon on my body."

"After sitting in the Abyss Gate for so long, my head is starting to go crazy."

"A miscalculation, a real miscalculation."

"Nice to meet you both. Let me introduce myself. My code name is Zishu. I am here on the orders of Marshal Huanglong to bring you two back to Yan Kingdom."

"However, the delay just now has sealed off the surrounding space."

"It seems we can't leave."

"Zi Shu said quietly, a smile on his face, as if he didn't take it seriously."

"Since we're already here, give me a few rounds of sapphire meat too."

"Only after you've eaten and drunk your fill will you have the energy to work."

Ye Bai handed the grilled meat skewers to Zi Shu; the texture on the skewers was simply too beautiful.

Like a finely crafted work of art.

"Haha, it will definitely taste great with this Divine Wine."

The rat took a sip of wine and a bite of meat, and soon its cheeks turned red.

"Good wine, good wine."

"Suddenly I felt energetic. I'm a bit tired from traveling all this time, so I'll take a nap."

"That kid, Space King, wouldn't dare to fight me one-on-one. You guys just go for it."

The mouse tilted its head to the side and fell to the ground, where it began to snore loudly.

Ye Bai looked helpless. Zi Shu was the most carefree of the Twelve Pillars of the Nation. To put it bluntly, he was an old rascal with a childlike mentality.

However, his strength is beyond doubt. He once fought against the Space King, Star Spirit King, and Fire King of the United States for a day and a night without being at a disadvantage.

"Ye Bai, how can this Rat Town Pillar be so unreliable?"

Lanfa was speechless.

"Shh, Zhenguozhu is not someone we can judge."

"Those people from the United States don't even need Zishu Zhenguozhu to step in; the two of us can handle them."

"Let's go and meet the enemy."

Outside the small island.

The Space King personally sealed off the entire space of the island.

Behind him, Polina knelt down on one knee.

"Polina, I am quite disappointed in you. You can't even take care of one person. What can I expect from you?"

"I'm taking this personally at the risk of being discovered by the Yan Kingdom, so you mustn't let me down."

The Space King's words sent a chill down Polina's spine. She knew, of course, what had happened to her predecessors who had offended the Eighth Prince.

If one incurred the wrath of the Eighth Prince, imprisonment would be the lightest punishment.

"Eagle Eye, Bird Whisperer".

"It's your turn to step up your game."

The Space King called out softly a few times.

Cracks then appeared in the space.

Hawkeye, who has four arms, and Bird Whisperer, who holds a bird totem staff, appeared before the Space King.

"Lord Space King".

Hawkeye and the Bird Whisperer spoke with great enthusiasm.

"This time, we must take the divine stone back from the people of Yan Kingdom. I only want the divine stone; whether I live or die is not important."

"I can't take action; sealing off the space is the only thing I can do."

"If the Yan people find out that I am bullying the weak, those old guys will definitely disregard their own reputation and come over to bully the weak as well."

“Polina, I’ll give you one more chance. Send your men out to attack this island and force those two little rats out.”

Polina nodded repeatedly. If she didn't seize this opportunity to pledge her loyalty, her own downfall might not be far off.

"Everyone, charge! If we can retrieve the divine stone, you can have my seat."

Most of the agents are fifth or sixth-tier beast tamers.

In this way, the number of strange beasts they contracted was considerable, densely covering the sky.

"Big Grey, don't hold back, go for it, Thor's Axe!"

A bolt of lightning shot straight into the sky, instantly turning the sky incredibly dark.

A fierce wind swept in, and a bolt of lightning crashed down from the sky, slamming heavily into the dark mass of beasts.

The pets scattered like ants in a pot that had been boiled over.

Ye Bai appeared before everyone, seated atop the Starry Butterfly Queen.

"Hand over the divine stone, and I'll spare your life."

Polina screamed loudly, her face contorted in a grimace. After all, this concerned her life and fortune, and she had to be careful.

"Hmph, come and take it if you dare, don't make a fuss."

Xiao Han exhaled streams of icy blue dragon breath from his mouth.

The dragon's breath disappeared into the dark clouds above, and a moment later, hailstones the size of fists fell from the sky.

Heavy snow fell, and the temperature dropped by tens of degrees Celsius. The sea gradually froze, and the entire island was transformed into a world of ice and snow.

"Is this the Frost Dragon, a descendant of the Dragon of the Moon?"

"Just who is this person?"

"There's even a very special pet beast like the Frost Dragon."

The agents were whispering amongst themselves when Polina's face turned ashen the moment she saw the Frost Dragon appear.

This is a unique pet beast of Chenlong. Its appearance here might mean that Chenlong is nearby.

Once I've finished cleaning up, I'll rescue the person.

"Polina, don't panic. There are no powerful pet masters around here. I can sense them."

Upon seeing the appearance of the Frost Dragon, the Space King was initially startled, but then sensed the surrounding spatial coordinates.

With no spatial jump confirmed and no powerful auras around, the Space King felt confident of victory.

"Go! Capture these two of the Twenty-Eight Constellations. I want to get information out of them."

Polina was also going crazy.

She also regarded Lanfa as one of the Twenty-Eight Constellations.

"Lanfa, you stay next to Zishu for a while. I'll meet with these people first."

At this moment, Lan spoke up to warn, "I saw the Space King. Will he specifically target you?"

"A seventh-tier pet master is no match for an eighth-tier pet master."

Ye Bai smiled and said, "Lanfa, you can rest assured."

"The Space King is the most cautious of the eight kings. He's afraid that the Pillar of the Nation will come knocking on his door and beat him up."

"After all, this involves two countries. If the Space King is in the wrong, he will be punished by the Pillar of the Nation."

"Give him a beating, and he'll behave much better."

Lanfa revealed a thoughtful expression.

Anyway, the Rat has already arrived, so they have a way out. Even if the road ahead is blocked, it doesn't matter.

"Go, Myriad Transformations Butterfly, create your clones!"

Many clones were released by the Myriad Transformations Butterfly, and these clones began to change their appearance the moment they appeared.

In just a short while, the Dark Butterfly Queen and the Starry Butterfly Queen appeared.

Having advanced to the rank of emperor, they can command their tribes to launch attacks.

Countless Dark Butterflies and Starry Butterflies suddenly emerged from the spatial rift, obscuring the entire sky.

Starlight streamed down from the sky and landed on the crowd.

With a loud bang, a number of people fell from the sky.

The Giant Rock Butterfly King manipulated gravity, pulling the people above down.

They were like dumplings thrown into boiling water, crashing through the frozen sea and falling into the water with a splash.

"Hawkeye, don't hold back, go for it."

A longbow suddenly appeared in Hawkeye's hand.

He swiftly fired a series of sharp arrows.

A series of whooshing sounds echoed through the sky.

However, screams of agony came from above.

Many people were hit by arrows and fell from the sky. After crashing through the floating ice, they were immediately silenced.

"Hawkeye, what are you doing?"

After Hawkeye realized he had hit all his colleagues, he looked incredulous: "I was clearly shooting in the direction that person was, so why did the arrows hit my own people?"

"What kind of sorcery did these Yan people use?"

Hawkeye was somewhat hesitant to look closely at his own eyes. He hesitated, drawing the bow into a wide arc, but never letting go.

"Hawkeye, trust your instincts. If I'm not mistaken, a mirage dragon has appeared."

"The mirage dragon is most skilled at creating mirages, and you were just fooled by a mirage."

Space King's explanation made Hawkeye feel a little better.

"Bird Whisperer, summon a bird-type beast and use Bird Burial."

The bird whisperer waved his scepter lightly, and countless birds appeared out of thin air.

They flapped their wings and rushed towards where Ye Bai was.

"Please, use your brains, okay?"

"The Frost Dragon just finished using ice-type moves, and now you've sent out bird-like beasts?"

"As far as I know, 99.9% of birds and other exotic animals are still attacked by hail when flying in extremely harsh environments, such as icy and snowy weather, and are very likely to lose their lives."

Ye Bai spoke frankly.

Sure enough, waves of raging cold air spread out, freezing birds and beasts into ice, causing them to fall from the sky.

Many of the strange beasts were smashed to pieces.

Even the arrows shot by Eagle Eye were broken and sank when they encountered the extremely cold air currents.

After watching his subordinates fail one after another, the Space King couldn't help but beckon with his little finger.

A spatial passage opened in front of him, and on the other side, not far from Ye Bai.

"Damn it, damn it!"

Ye Bai immediately understood the Space King's plan.

Okay, you don't intentionally sabotage me, but you assist me. Isn't that the difference between direct and indirect cheating?
"Hmph, Sunflower Fairy, shining with holy light."

Most of the island's plants were absorbed by the Sunflower Fairy's clone.

In just a moment, a blindingly bright light appeared.

Even the Space King couldn't help but put his hand next to his eyes.

Just then, a cursing voice rang out from behind.

"Little Kongzi, you've gone too far! How dare you sneak up on me while I'm sleeping?"

The sound of the rat made the Space King's pupils contract; he would never forget that voice, even if he died.

Back then, the Rat chased him across the sea, chasing the Space King back and forth. When they finally reached the territory of the Beautiful Country, the Space King was almost out of breath.

Space King admitted that the Rat's ability was more useful than his own spatial teleportation.

"Rat, long time no see. I heard you've had some trouble. Why aren't you taking care of yourself and getting involved in this mess?"

“I will never allow you to take the divine stone back to Yan Kingdom; you are violating the treaty.”

The Space King said in a fit of exasperation.

“I violated the treaty. Which clause did I violate? Every single word, every single line.”

"As long as you can give a reason, I can pretend that nothing happened."

"Otherwise, I will immediately gather the people of Yan and bring you to justice."

"Space King, don't think you're good at spatial teleportation. When it comes to space, I'm your ancestor."

"Zi Shu said with a cold laugh."

The pipe at his waist was emitting thick smoke.

One by one, the smokers popped their heads out again.

They had a pair of wings on their backs and were running towards the direction of the agents.

Before long, the agent felt the smoker pounce like a tsunami.

In just a short while, it blocked out the sun in the sky.

Space King casually waved his hand, unleashing the Space Blade.

However, after being hit by the Space Blade, the number of Smokers splitting off accelerated.

They spread directly into the air, and their populations grew larger and larger.

"Space King, this isn't a pleasant feeling, is it? The more you attack, the more smoke rats there are, which means the people you've invited might all be wiped out."
