Beast Taming: My spirit beast bloodline is overloaded

Chapter 447 The Legendary Genius
"what?"

"Lin Chen?!"

Shi Zuo's earth-shattering cry of surprise was like a ladle of cold water poured into a boiling oil pan, instantly exploding among the survivors.

Aya, Yang Lai, and the others were initially bewildered, but then, as if they remembered something, their eyes widened instantly, and their gazes toward Lin Chen were no longer filled with incomprehension, but rather with utter shock and fervor!
Lingyuan Lin Chen!

For many in the Cangling Ancient Kingdom, this name is an unattainable legend!

The Beast Fighting Tournament and the Heavenly Mountain Tournament proved Lin Chen's talent and potential.

The war between the demon race and the god race proved Lin Chen's unparalleled combat power.

Or perhaps, Lin Chen no longer needs to prove himself to anyone!
They never imagined that the legendary genius would appear before them in such a way!
"How come I didn't notice Chen Lin before?"

Shi Zuo muttered to himself, now he was 100% certain of the answer.

The moment Chang Tian heard the name "Lin Chen," all the color drained from his face!

"Lin Chen...Lin Chen from the Spirit Academy?!"

He was startled, a chill running from the soles of his feet straight to the top of his head!

He finally understood why the little fox possessed two different kinds of strange fire, and why they were so strangely powerful!
The Eastern Cherry Kingdom has been closely monitoring the events that have occurred in the Cangling Ancient Kingdom.

The Night People were originally the largest family in the Eastern Cherry Kingdom. Even though they had declined, they were still able to participate in the country's policies.

Whether it was the war between demons and beasts or the war between gods, the high-ranking officials of Dongying Kingdom were discussing one thing: whether to take the opportunity to attack Cangling Ancient Kingdom.

However, Dongying Kingdom was worried that if it acted rashly, both sides in the battle would turn their anger towards it, and if it was not handled well, it would become a case of helping them divert attention from their own conflicts, which would be a loss.

Therefore, the Eastern Cherry Kingdom has been waiting for the Cangling Ancient Kingdom to be at its weakest.

That is why Lin Chen's name was not unfamiliar to Chang Tian.

Lin Chen, Divine Fox, Strange Fire
"Burning Heart Fire Control?!"

"Kill it quickly!"

"We can't let it complete the fusion!"

After realizing what was happening, Tsuneta's voice was distorted with fear, almost cracking.

He frantically urged the Shadow Crocodile, and the boundless dark death energy surged towards the little fox like a burst dam of the Styx!
The other Night People also narrowed their eyes and then went all out.

However, just as the deathly aura was about to engulf the little fox, a glint of cleverness flashed in its eyes.

Before it, the enormous black fireball condensed from the Pure World True Fire and the crimson-gold flame storm formed by the Phoenix Karmic Fire began their ultimate compression and fusion under the guidance of the little fox's Burning Heart Fire Control.

Two completely different supreme flames collide and devour each other, yet under the constraint of the Burning Heart Fire Control, they achieve a dangerous balance!

Their light was restrained, their energy was compressed to the extreme, and they eventually transformed into an energy sphere that was entirely chaotic in color and had a destructive aura.

Different Fire Nuclear Bomb
become!
This chaotic energy sphere floated quietly, emitting no heat or light. But it was precisely this extreme stillness that made the soul of someone like Changtian, who sensed its existence, tremble!
At that moment, Changtian felt a chill of fear.

"go."

Lin Chen parted his thin lips slightly and uttered a syllable indifferently.

The little fox gracefully raised its front paw and gently pushed the chaotic energy ball.

call out!
The energy ball shot out silently, ignoring the distance in space, and instantly collided head-on with the Shadow Crocodile's attack!
There was no violent explosion as I had imagined, no deafening roar.

At the moment the two came into contact, time seemed to freeze for a split second.

Immediately afterwards——

Buzz! ! ! !

A terrifying buzzing sound that struck the very depths of the soul spread out first!
Then, there is light!
A chaotic light erupted!
Wherever the light reached, the Shadow Crocodile's attacks evaporated instantly, like ice and snow under the sunlight!
Its deathly torrent, powerful enough to corrode space, was utterly fragile before this chaotic light!
The light instantly engulfed the Shadow Crocodile that was at the forefront of the attack!
"Roar!!!"

The level 92 Shadow Crocodile let out the most painful scream of its life!
Its shadow scales, strong enough to withstand attacks of the same level, melted rapidly at a visible speed, like ice blocks thrown into a steel furnace.

It desperately mustered all its shadow power to resist, but under that chaotic light, all resistance seemed so pale and powerless!
It lasted for less than two seconds before the Shadow Crocodile's hill-like body collapsed in front of everyone's horrified gazes!
First, the external scales and flesh, then the internal bones and energy core, were all reduced to ashes and vanished without a trace by the chaotic light.

one strike!
Just one blow!
The level 92 Shadow Crocodile was reduced to ashes!

And this is just the beginning!
After annihilating the Shadow Crocodile, the chaotic light continued its momentum without diminishing, like an ever-expanding destructive domain, crashing into the dense Night Elf camp and spirit beast horde behind it!

There was no shockwave from the explosion, only silent annihilation!

The Night Elf Beastmasters who were swept by the chaotic light didn't even have time to scream before they and their spirit beasts vanished instantly, like pencil marks erased by an eraser!

Their power is meaningless in the face of this absolute destructive force!

Where the light passes, all things return to nothingness!
As the chilling, chaotic light finally dissipated, the entire battlefield fell into a deathly silence.

A huge, charred crater with a diameter of over two hundred meters has appeared in the area where the Night People originally stood!
The edges of the pit were as smooth as a mirror, as if they had been sliced ​​by some supreme being!

The pit was empty.

The spirit beasts that Changtian and his group brought...

They've all disappeared.

Not even a speck of dust or a trace of blood remained.

It was as if they had never existed in this world.

Only a few Night People, who were originally on the very edge of the camp and were quick to react and extremely lucky, lay sprawled on the ground, staring blankly at the huge crater, their bodies trembling, clearly terrified.

A gentle breeze swept by, carrying the scent of scorched earth, and fluttered the hem of Lin Chen's clothes and the little fox's crimson fur.

They remained standing there, their expressions calm, as if the devastating attack had nothing to do with them.

Shi Zuo, Aya, and the others stiffly turned their necks, looking at the huge crater that had replaced the original battlefield, then at the calmly standing figure in front of them, and the little fox at his feet that was rapidly shrinking.

No one spoke.

The sheer shock has robbed them of their ability to speak.

All they knew was that what they saw today would be unforgettable.

Lingyuan Lin Chen truly lives up to his reputation!
They finally understood what genius was!
In front of Lin Chen, any beast-taming genius seemed insignificant.

Tsuneta and Tsuneto nearly collapsed to the ground, but they reacted quickly. At that moment, they realized that the Ancestral Dragon Stone was unimportant; preserving their lives was the most important thing.

But Li Zhen had been waiting for this moment. He waved his hand and said, "Where do you think you're going!"

The rest he had just taken allowed Li Zhen to catch his breath.

However, without them having to make a move, Shi Zuo and the others immediately summoned their spirit beasts and stopped Chang Tian and the others.

Without their spirit beasts, these Night People are extremely weak in combat.

They tied them up with almost no effort.

And the very thing they used to bind them was the same thing they had used to bind Shi Zuo and the others before.

Seeing Changtian and the others tied to the ground, Shi Zuo and the others understood that the balance of power had shifted from offense to defense.

Chen Shizuo looked at Lin Chen, unsure of how to address him.

Lin Chen, as always, said, "Brother Shi is older than me, so just address me as always."

Shi Zuo was somewhat flattered and quickly said, "Brother Lin, what do you think we should do with them?"

"You can have it," Lin Chen said. "However, my suggestion is that since we're destined to be enemies, there's no need to keep it around."

"I understand," Shi Zuo nodded.

He was naturally also intent on killing; those who could become treasure hunters were all ruthless individuals.

However, they are ruthless not to their own people, but to their enemies.

Just as Lin Chen was about to leave, Chang Tian and the other Night People turned pale after hearing Lin Chen's words.

Then Changtian said coldly, "You dare to kill us? Aren't you afraid of provoking a war between our two countries?" "You know the status of my Night People in the Eastern Cherry Kingdom."

Upon hearing this, Shi Zuo and Yang Lai hesitated for a moment, but Lin Chen said, "Why didn't you consider this issue when you wanted to kill them earlier?"

Chang Tian's pupils suddenly contracted, and then he said, "Your Cangling Ancient Kingdom is already plagued by endless internal troubles, do you want external troubles to arise as well?"

The threat was so blatant, but Lin Chen said calmly:
"Only living people are qualified to consider these kinds of questions."

Upon hearing this, Changtian gasped.

But Shi Zuo and the others seemed to have found the answer.

After saying this, Lin Chen did not linger any longer and said to Shi Zuo, "I'm going back to check on the grass first. You can handle things here."

"it is good."

Shi Zuo nodded repeatedly.

Lin Chen then left with Li Zhen, who said as they walked, "These people from Dongying Kingdom are really getting arrogant. Do they really think that we people from Cangling Ancient Kingdom are afraid of them?"

Lin Chen took two steps and said:
"A country is just like a family; harmony in the family brings prosperity in all things."

"But since Zhong Nan left, the entire country has suffered a series of severe blows."

Zhong Nan?

Li Zhen was taken aback, never expecting Lin Chen to suddenly mention his name. He said, "He probably couldn't have predicted these things either."

“I didn’t say I blame him,” Lin Chen said. “It’s just that his departure was indeed the starting point of internal strife in Cangling Ancient City.”

"Perhaps things will return to normal here after Gu Ning gets up."

“Gu Ning is no good person,” Li Zhen said.

The two chatted as they returned to the cave of the Mystic Ice Dragon Saliva Grass. After carefully inspecting it and finding that there was nothing wrong with the Mystic Ice Dragon Saliva Grass, they breathed a sigh of relief.

This thing is useless to others, but it is a treasure to Lin Chen.

If your house gets robbed, you won't know who to complain to.

Li Zhen sat down to rest, while Lin Chen read a book until dawn when he heard footsteps.

To avoid waking Li Zhen, he went outside and saw Shi Zuo and the others standing outside the cave.

The moment they saw Lin Chen appear, everyone knelt down on one knee.

"What are you doing?"

Lin Chen quickly stepped forward to help Shi Zuo up.

Unexpectedly, Shi Zuo remained unmoved, and instead, everyone said in unison:

"Thank you so much, Senior Li and Brother Lin, for saving us!"

"We will remember this mission."

Lin Chen quickly helped Shi Zuo up and said:
"Brother Shi, everyone, there's no need for such a grand ceremony. We are compatriots abroad, and it's only right that we support each other."

Shi Zuo and the others then stood up, their faces still showing gratitude and awe.

Shi Zuo stepped forward and said in a low voice:

“Brother Lin, Senior Li, we have dealt with Chang Tian and the others, and as you said… we left no survivors.”

Lin Chen nodded slightly. This was the law of the jungle; to be merciful to the enemy was to be cruel to oneself.

Shi Zuo continued:

"Then we followed the clues and found the Night People's temporary base on the island, which was in a secluded valley not far from here."

"We went inside and saw that it was filled with resources they had collected and brought from Dongying Kingdom during this period, including spiritual herbs, evolution materials, ores, and so on. The quantity was quite considerable!"

He paused, his tone becoming somewhat solemn:

“We’ve discussed it. If it weren’t for Brother Lin and Senior Li saving us, we would have already perished.”

"These spoils should be chosen by the two of you first, so please move over and see if there is anything you need."

At this moment, Li Zhen was also awakened by the commotion outside the cave and came out, just in time to hear Shi Zuo's words.

Yang Lai even volunteered, saying:
"Senior Li, Brother Lin, you can go ahead and choose with peace of mind. I, Yang Lai, will stay here and guard this Xuanbing Dragon Saliva Grass for you. I guarantee that not even a fly will be able to get in!"

Lin Chen and Li Zhen exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of surprise and admiration in each other's eyes.

Shi Zuo and his group are grateful and act in a very methodical way.

This rescue was definitely worthwhile!
"In that case, we won't stand on ceremony."

Li Zhen laughed heartily. He used to be a monster hunter, so naturally he wouldn't complain about the low pay.

Lin Chen nodded. He was relieved that Yang was guarding the Xuanbing Dragon Saliva Grass.

Led by Shi Zuo, the two headed towards the Night People's camp.

Passing through a dense thicket of bushes and parting the well-camouflaged vines, a valley with a hidden entrance comes into view.

Inside the valley, there were some stone houses. In the central open space, all kinds of supplies were piled up like mountains, dazzling and sparkling with various spiritual lights.

As Shi Zuo said, the things here are almost untouched.

Lin Chen's gaze swept across the area, quickly locking onto several top-grade spiritual herbs and a few rare minerals related to cultivation.

These things add up to tens of millions.

Li Zhen then selected some pills and spiritual fruits that could quickly restore qi and blood and spiritual power.

Lin Chen didn't accept them all, because he wouldn't have much use for them; it would be more appropriate to distribute them to Shi Zuo and the others.

There needs to be a sense of proportion when it comes to dividing the spoils; otherwise, everyone will be happier.

However, looking at the mountain of resources before him, a question arose in his mind.

He turned to Shi Zuo, who was organizing some documents and files, and asked:
"Brother Shi, have you found any trace of... the Ancestral Dragon Stone?"

Given the Night People's massive mobilization, even at the cost of conflict with the people of the Cangling Ancient Kingdom, it's hard to believe they didn't bring the Ancestral Dragon Stone.

Upon hearing this, Shi Zuo immediately pulled out a thick leather notebook from a pile of documents and handed it to Lin Chen:

"Brother Lin, we were wondering the same thing."

"This is a record we found in Changtian's luggage, which clearly states that they secretly transported the Ancestral Dragon Stone to this island."

Lin Chen took the notebook and quickly flipped through it, while Li Zhen also came over to take a look.

The notebook contained neat and meticulous handwriting, detailing the various activities of the Night People after they landed on the island:

Exploration sites, the establishment of sentry posts, and so on—nothing is too small.

However, as he looked, Lin Chen's brows furrowed slightly.

He discovered some unusual clues.

The notes repeatedly mention terms like "coordinate calibration" and "astronomical positioning deviation correction," which doesn't seem like the kind of record one would make during exploration on a fixed island. Instead, it seems more like…

Tracking a moving target?

One page even states clearly:

"After seven days of observation, the island's relative position shifted by three miles, which is basically consistent with the beacon calculations, confirming that it has periodic displacement characteristics. The displacement trajectory is highly similar to the characteristics of the 'drifting ancient island' marked on the ancient nautical chart fragments..."

Li Zhen was startled and said:
"Could it be that the Night People have actually discovered some clues about the Dragon Palace?"
