Beast Taming: My spirit beast bloodline is overloaded

Chapter 434 The Final Battle is Coming

Lin Chen's pupils suddenly contracted, almost thinking he had misheard.

Destroy the dragon vein?

This idea was so shocking that it was a challenge to the very foundation of the Cangling Ancient Kingdom.

Dragon veins nurture spiritual energy, nourish all living beings, and are the source of power for all beast tamers and spirit beasts.

No one can predict what the future holds.

"I also know that the dragon vein is the foundation of a nation. If it is destroyed, the spiritual energy may be depleted, and all things may wither."

The elder's face showed no trace of jest, only an unfathomable heaviness and a hint of resolve.

His aged gaze drifted to the window, where the outline of the majestic Ling Mountain stretched out, the very place where the dragon vein lay hidden. His voice was hoarse as he spoke:

"But if the gods were to take control of these dragon veins, that would be the real disaster. The human race would be completely enslaved and divided into different classes."

"This decision was already raised during the last meeting in Tiandu."

"None of the major powers objected."

Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

Judging from the current situation, it will be very difficult for the human race to defeat the protoss.

"Is there any record of what the consequences were in the past?" Lin Chen asked.

Lin Chen never forgot that he had transmigrated from another world, a world without spiritual energy, without spirit beasts, where cultivation was impossible, and only science existed.

Could it be that this is the path that the Beast Taming Continent will have to take in the future?

"The dragon vein is like a giant device for regulating and sealing spiritual energy," the Grand Elder explained.

"It gathers, purifies, and slowly releases the vast spiritual energy scattered between heaven and earth, maintaining the balance of the world."

"But this also means that the vast majority of the purer and more ancient spiritual energy has been imprisoned deep within the dragon vein for a long time, or rather, suppressed."

He paused, then uttered a shocking statement:
"If the dragon vein is destroyed, this huge 'seal' will be broken."

"The primordial spiritual energy that has been suppressed for countless years will, like a flood bursting its banks, instantly replenish the heavens and earth."

"In the short term, there will be a spiritual energy revival that far exceeds our imagination!"

"Spiritual energy revival?" Lin Chen was shocked.

“That’s right.” The elder’s eyes were deep. “This is just a guess, but it should be a guess that is close to reality.”

Turning his head, the Grand Elder looked at Lin Chen and said:

"Lin Chen, you have amazing talent. I have no instructions for you. If that day ever comes, you must seize this opportunity."

"It is unclear what the gods will choose at the moment, but if we can take advantage of this opportunity, the human race may also produce some experts."

"Then we will no longer need to fear the gods."

Lin Chen exhaled; this idea was far too risky.

However, just as the Grand Elder said, even if it means self-destruction, the human race must never give the dragon vein to the gods.

Otherwise, the human race will forever remain an inferior race, never able to rise again.

On a high, frozen mountain west of Lingshan, Li Zhen paced anxiously along the edge of an ice lake, the millennia-old ice beneath his feet seemingly bearing faint marks from his scorching breath.

After taking the Karmic Fire Pill and undergoing these days of seclusion, his cultivation level soared to level 89. He couldn't wait to return to Mount Ling and fight alongside Lin Chen.

These days, he can clearly sense the aftershocks of energy collisions coming from afar, and every tremor makes his heartstrings twitch.

He was afraid that if he returned too late, Lin Chen and the others would be in danger, and Li Zhen would never forgive him for the rest of his life.

But when his gaze turned to the center of the lake, the tiny red figure encased in crystal-clear ice made him abruptly stop in his tracks.

Lin Chen's words of advice were still ringing in their ears. The little fox was in seclusion, and it was clearly inappropriate for Li Zhen to leave now.

After all, Lin Chen had entrusted this matter to him when he came.

"Sigh!" Li Zhen sighed heavily and looked at the heartless guy next to him.

The fire sprite lay sprawled on the ice, radiating a warm aura that melted a small groove in the ice beneath it.

After consuming the Karmic Fire Pill, it slept soundly for a long time without any disturbance. When it woke up, its aura was restrained, making it impossible for anyone to discern its true strength, which was in stark contrast to Li Zhen's arduous seclusion.

While Li Zhen waited anxiously, a strange red light, emanating from a powerful burst of energy, once again appeared on the distant horizon, and he finally made up his mind.

"Can't wait any longer!"

He planned to leave the fire spirit behind to look after things, as he had to rush back to Mount Ling.

However, just as he turned to speak to the fire spirit—

hum!
An indescribable surge of emotion emanated from the heart of the lake!
Li Zhen turned around abruptly and saw that the huge block of ice that had frozen the little fox suddenly lit up with a dazzling light!

It wasn't a single light, but several flames of different colors, each containing terrifying energy, bursting forth from the little fox's body!

Crimson, deep blue, pale, dark purple...

Like living spirits, streaks of strange fire broke free from the ice and hovered above the little fox's head, slowly rotating.

"This is...?!" Li Zhen's pupils shrank sharply, and he subconsciously took half a step back. His level 89 spiritual power instinctively began to circulate, and his Phoenix Arm was also activated.

He felt a tremor that came from the depths of his soul, a sense of awe in the face of a higher level of energy.

Then, an even more shocking sight occurred.

Centered on the little fox in the lake, a five-colored fire storm with a diameter of over 100 meters was created out of thin air!

Where the storm swept, the snow-capped mountains and ice, which were said to never melt, melted rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, just like spring snow encountering the blazing sun!
The rising water vapor was vaporized by the terrifyingly high temperature before it could even rise into the air, emitting a hissing sound.

The ice on the lake surface shattered and melted, revealing the bottomless lake water below, which was then instantly boiled, churning up huge bubbles.

The snow on the surrounding mountain peaks collapsed, turning into surging snow waves, but were completely evaporated when they approached the edge of the strange fire storm!
The air distorted under the high temperature, and the space itself seemed to become unstable.

The heat emanating from the storm made even Li Zhen, who possessed the Phoenix Arm, feel a stinging sensation on his skin, and he dared not approach it easily.

"So fierce?!"

Li Zhen was dumbfounded. He knew the little fox was powerful and possessed multiple different flames, but he never expected that when it broke through in seclusion, it could trigger such a world-destroying phenomenon!
The fire sprite was no longer as lazy as before. It floated up, a rare look of seriousness on its small face, staring intently at the blurry red figure in the center of the storm.

……

Meanwhile, at the foot of Mount Ling, the atmosphere had become extremely tense.

Gu Zhong sat upright in the main seat of the makeshift tent, his face solemn. The probing attacks of the past few days had not been in vain.

Like a seasoned cheetah, he patiently compressed the Spirit Alliance's operational space while meticulously observing and assessing every aspect of his opponent's strength.

He would never allow himself to be like Gu Fengna, who launched a general offensive without fully understanding the situation, resulting in the annihilation of his entire army.

Inside the tent, the core elders of the ancient clan gathered, the atmosphere heavy. Gu Zhong's finger slowly traced across the unfolded map, finally emphasizing several key locations.

"Primary target, the Celestial Spirit Body—Young Master Qin!" Gu Zhong's voice was cold and firm, brooking no argument.

"This woman has extremely high area-of-effect damage; we absolutely cannot allow her to run rampant on the battlefield. The four of us—Gu Su, Gu Zheng, and Gu Lie—will be responsible for keeping a close watch on her!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Su frowned slightly: "Four people joining forces just to restrain one person? Isn't that too cautious? If we could free up Elder Gu Zheng or Elder Gu Lie to join other fronts, we might be able to break through the situation more quickly."

"Caution?" Gu Zhong snorted coldly, his sharp gaze sweeping over Gu Su. "Have you forgotten how Gu Feng and the others died? They underestimated these seemingly young human geniuses!"

"We might not even be able to kill Qin Shaoshao instantly, but as long as we keep her firmly under control and prevent her from unleashing her terrifying clearing ability, we can crush her on the other battlefields! This is a worthwhile trade!"

Gu Su recalled the tragic scene of Gu Feng's demise, a chill ran through him, and he said no more. "Yu Xiu, you deal with him."

Gu Zhong already had a plan in mind and began to call out the names of the elders of the ancient clan one by one.

When it was Lin Chen's turn, Gu Zhong paused for a moment.

Lin Chen's main fighting force is Xiao Bai.

Gu Zhong had already studied this point.

Gu Zhong was relieved that the little fox's fighting ability had not yet fully developed.

Otherwise, the combination of the little fox's burning heart and fire control with the strange fire would have caused a devastating blow to the battlefield.

"Lin Chen doesn't possess large-scale destructive power, but his killing ability is very strong."

After saying this, Gu Zhong planned to send an elder with a level 94 spirit beast, along with Mo Dong, who had previously fought Lin Chen, to deal with him. Unexpectedly, footsteps came from outside the door at this moment:
"Leave this Lin Chen to me."

Everyone was stunned and turned around in unison.

Then you see a young woman standing there.

"Holy Maiden?!" Gu Zhong exclaimed in surprise and quickly stepped forward.

Each of the four divine races has its own holy son or holy daughter.

The woman before me is named Gu Yun, and she is the personal disciple of the patriarch of the Gu clan.

At the time, both Gu Zhennan and she were strong contenders for the next clan leader.

However, the only advantage that Guzhennan has over Guyun is...
He was born a boy.

Because the ancient clan had rules for succession, there had never been a female clan leader in any generation.

Therefore, the ancient clan is quite conflicted about whether Gu Yun should succeed as the next clan leader.

But his talent for classical charm is undeniable.

Because her phoenix blood is that of an ancestral phoenix, she not only awakened the purest phoenix karmic fire, but also gained divine and demonic power.

That's right.

Gu Yun also gained divine and demonic power.

According to the clan chief, the divine and demonic power of Gu Yun, this phoenix, can grow.

"The clan leader sent me here to slay the opponent's divine and demonic power."

As Gu Yun spoke, a greedy glint appeared in her eyes. She said, "Then absorb all its power."

Upon hearing this, Gu Zhong's eyes revealed a look of envy.

The power of gods and demons is rare to encounter. If one can kill the power of gods and demons, then this power will not immediately dissipate, but may be absorbed by the opponent.

Because the power of gods and demons depends entirely on enlightenment.

"How about I send you another helper?" Gu Zhong asked.

"No need, it's just a spirit beast that has just reached level 80."

Gu Yun was full of confidence. Not only was she already level 90, but what gave her even more confidence was her specialty: killing opponents of higher levels.

"That"

Gu Yun shook her head confidently, her tone filled with absolute arrogance: "No need. It's just a spirit beast that has just stepped into the level 80 threshold. Even if it has the power of gods and demons, how strong can it be?"

She looked at Gu Zhong, her eyes sharp, and refused again:

"Taking on a level above your own? Ha, anyone can do that."

Deep within the Spirit Academy, in a secluded valley.

Lin Chen was intently guiding Xiao Bai's cultivation.

After a series of battles, Xiao Bai seemed to have improved his control over his divine and demonic power. Black and red aura swirled around him, and the deep roar of a demonic bull echoed faintly.

"Calm your mind and try to concentrate your power at the tip of the horn, rather than spreading it throughout your body."

Lin Chen gave soft guidance, while his own spiritual power slowly flowed out, merging with Xiao Bai's aura to help it comprehend.

Little White let out a low growl and did as instructed. The violent aura of gods and demons began to contract inward, gradually gathering a chilling dark light on its pair of ferocious iron horns.

at this time--

"Boom!!!"

"Boom!!!"

"Boom!!!"

……

Nine heavy and urgent bell tolls suddenly rang out from the summit of Lingshan Mountain, spreading like thunder to every corner of the mountains and fields!
The tolling of the bell grew more urgent and heavier with each chime, carrying a sense of urgency that instantly shattered the brief tranquility of Lingshan.

Nine bells ring!

This is the highest level of warning, indicating that the enemy is large in scale and has already arrived!
Lin Chen and Xiao Bai looked up at the same time, their eyes instantly becoming incredibly sharp.

The power that had gathered around Xiaobai suddenly dissipated, transforming into a boiling battle intent, and his scarlet bull eyes looked in the direction from which the bell sound came.

"Finally here..." Lin Chen took a deep breath, suppressing the turmoil in his heart, and patted Xiaobai's head. "Let's go."

He flashed and mounted Little White, who then sped towards the highest peak of Mount Ling.

A moment later, Lin Chen ascended to the outermost and highest defensive barrier of Mount Ling.

The wind howled, blowing his robes. He looked into the distance and saw that the once empty plains outside Mount Ling were now a dark mass!
The divine army, like an endless tide, with banners like a forest, and a powerful aura converging into a terrifying pressure that made people suffocate, rolled towards Mount Ling. The soaring killing intent made the sky darken.

When Lin Chen arrived, the First Elder and the others were already there.

"It seems they're not planning to wait."

The elder sighed.

In fact, the Spirit Alliance has been working hard all this time.

Lin Chen and Chen Ming discussed various methods to see if they could separate the Divine Race army and defeat them one by one.

However, Gu Zhong was not as careless as Gu Feng; he guarded the area strictly and advanced step by step.

Therefore, the elders all knew that this was a plan to slowly boil the frog in water.

Chen Ming nodded, then looked at the Grand Elder and said, "Just like you said, even if we lose in the end, we must fight."

The great elder nodded.

The human race's world was originally won back by our ancestors.

How could we possibly admit defeat so easily now?

As they spoke, Qin Shaoshao's figure gradually came into view.

She had barely made an appearance during this period, but now that the final battle was imminent, she finally showed up.

Just then, Gu Zhong rode his phoenix and soared into the sky, saying, "Heavenly Spirit Body, you've finally decided to show yourself?"
