Beast Taming: My spirit beast bloodline is overloaded

Chapter 476 Records of the Forbidden Zone
The Grand Elder naturally knew that Lin Chen rushed back so urgently because of Qin Shao Shao's matter.

Now that some time has passed since the celestial spirit erupted that day, it's time to deal with this matter.

He got up and walked towards the inner courtyard.

Lin Chen and Li Zhen both held their breath, their eyes fixed on the figure of the Grand Elder.

A moment later, the Grand Elder emerged from the inner courtyard, carrying an ancient book with a yellowed cover and slightly damaged edges.

The ancient books are made of neither gold nor jade, and it is unknown what kind of animal hide they are made of. They have a warm and smooth feel, and despite the erosion of time, they remain tough.

"Back then, in order to prevent a sudden attack from the ancient clans, I made the worst-case scenario plan in advance and arranged for several trusted elders to secretly move away in batches the most precious and rare books from the academy's library."

The Grand Elder handed the ancient book to Lin Chen, a hint of relief and emotion in his eyes:

"Now that we've moved to Thunder City and rebuilt the academy, I was sorting through these lost and recovered treasures a few days ago when I accidentally discovered this ancient book."

Lin Chen solemnly accepted the ancient book, his gaze falling on the four simple yet powerful characters on the cover—

"Records of the Forbidden Zone"!
"This book……"

"Before our time, even in the ancient times when the era of beast taming was just beginning, there were many mysterious and unpredictable 'forbidden zones' on the land of the Cangling Ancient Kingdom."

The elder's voice, seemingly possessing a magical power that transcends time, slowly recounted that long-forgotten history.

"Rumor has it that countless rare treasures are buried in those forbidden zones, and perhaps... even the legendary elixir of immortality."

"The immense temptation gave rise to a new profession that made a living by exploring forbidden areas—the explorer."

"And the author of this book was the most famous and also the most eccentric explorer of that era."

The elder pointed to the book in Lin Chen's hand and said:
“Just turn to Chapter Five. There, it records one of his experiences… an experience of breaking into the ‘Celestial Spirit Body Spiritual Forbidden Zone’!”

"boom--!!!"

That last sentence, like a thunderclap from the heavens, exploded in Lin Chen's mind!
His fingers trembled slightly with extreme excitement as he quickly turned the pages of the book, following the elder's instructions.

As the elder had said, the book contained many unbelievable forbidden areas.

There's the "sea of ​​lava" deep within the earth, the "heavenly palace on the clouds" high above the heavens, and even the "silent kingdom" occupied by the undead...

Each forbidden zone is described as filled with thrilling dangers and bizarre adventures.

Lin Chen glanced at the article and felt a deep respect for the unknown author.

This person was truly an extraordinary genius. The book records his experience of successfully venturing into ten top-level forbidden zones. Each time, he faced death by the skin of his teeth, yet he always managed to escape danger.

However, when you turn to Chapter 11, the rest of the content is blank.

Lin Chen's heart tightened involuntarily.

He took a deep breath and, with mixed feelings, turned the page to Chapter 5.

The opening of Chapter Five features a line of writing that is both carefree and tinged with a touch of tragic grandeur:

"Later generations, when you turn to this page, if you find no updates below, it means... this time, I'm afraid I really won't be able to come back."

That short sentence made Lin Chen feel as if he were seeing a free-spirited and unrestrained figure.

"That's right, the forbidden zone I'm going to next is the ultimate danger zone that no one has ever dared to set foot in throughout history, and no one has ever been able to return alive—the spiritual forbidden zone of the Celestial Spirit Body!"

"The Celestial Spirit Body, this is truly an incredibly wondrous constitution."

"We have long since entered a new era where everyone can tame beasts. This ancient physique, which originated in ancient times and relies on one's own cultivation, has actually been passed down."

"What's even more amazing is that people with this physique can also become beast tamers. It's unbelievable!"

Lin Chen was utterly shocked when he saw this!
This senior actually went there!
He quickly looked down.

"Ordinary physical defenses are not necessary to enter a world that is purely constructed of mental energy."

"First, I need to prepare some 'outer garments' that can isolate mental energy from erosion to the greatest extent possible."

"Based on numerous historical records and my personal research, the toughness of 'dragon skin' and the sacredness of 'phoenix feathers' are the best combination to resist spiritual pollution."

"First, we need a fresh dragon hide, the higher the grade the better, and then we'll refine it using the following materials."

"Alright, preparations complete! I'm off! Hope I return safely!"

Between the lines, the heroic spirit and confidence of "knowing there are tigers in the mountains, yet venturing into the tiger's den" almost leaps off the page!

Lin Chen was astonished. How could this person have obtained dragon skin and phoenix feathers so easily?
However, turning the page leads to the next chapter.

"Everyone, I... I'm back alive!"

"That was a crazy world!"

"Within the spiritual forbidden zone of the Celestial Spirit Body, there is no matter, no energy; there are only countless 'spiritual bodies' formed from negative emotions!"

"Because it's on their home turf, those guys can become incredibly strong, it's simply unreasonable!"

"However, they are not invincible."

"I've discovered that these spiritual entities all share a common weakness!"

"They are pure embodiments of negative emotions, representing 'anger,' 'hatred,' 'greed,' 'jealousy'... As long as you can accurately determine which negative emotion it belongs to, and use the 'emotional power' that counters it to attack it..."

"It will be as fragile as tofu!"

Upon seeing this, an extremely dazzling light burst forth in Lin Chen's eyes!

He excitedly continued reading.

"It's just a pity... I overestimated myself."

"I tried my best, but I only managed to defeat two spiritual entities."

"When I encountered the third one, I misjudged its emotional nature, and the price I paid was that it ruined half of my arm!"

"Luckily I ran fast, otherwise I would have really lost my life there."

"After this near-death experience, I have a bold hypothesis: the so-called 'Celestial Spirit Body Outburst' may not be a curse leading to death, but rather a kind of... 'Tribulation'!"

"If, and I mean if, one day, someone could help the Celestial Spirit Body to completely eradicate all the dark spiritual entities in his spiritual world that represent his inner demons..."

"Perhaps, the Celestial Spirit Body can truly succeed in transcending the tribulation and return in glory in a way we cannot even imagine!"

"The above is just some random guesses and irresponsible notes... I'm going to get my arm treated now!"

That's the end of the record.

Lin Chen slowly closed the book "Records of the Forbidden Zone," his chest heaving violently, the shock in his heart lingering for a long time.

This senior is not just about being dashing; his strength, insight, and courage are all astonishing!
"What do you think?" The First Elder's voice rang out at the opportune moment.

“No matter what…” Lin Chen raised his head and said firmly, “I have to go in and try!”

"How about I go?" Li Zhen said.

"No way!" Lin Chen refused without even thinking.

He looked at Li Zhen and said with utmost seriousness, "But when it comes to understanding and immunity to mental power, who... can compare to Xiaobai, who once specifically cultivated mental power?"

Upon hearing this, Li Zhen was speechless.

“But… the biggest problem is…” Li Zhen frowned, “Where are we going to find ‘dragon skin’ and ‘phoenix feathers’?”

"The Spirit Academy does have quite a few phoenix feathers." The Grand Elder's words invigorated the two of them!
The elder stroked his beard and slowly said:
"On the day of the great battle with the ancient tribe, many powerful phoenixes of the ancient tribe perished."

"After the great battle, I had people collect all the feathers in good condition. I never thought they would come in handy today."

The phoenix feather problem is solved!
So... what about dragon skin?

The dragon skin must be fresh.

Lin Chen and Li Zhen quickly thought of the Xuanyuan Clan.

During this period of time, Lin Chen had made inquiries. Although he had only offended the ancient clan and the Ji family before, Xuan Yuan Ce, the heir of the Xuan Yuan clan, had once declared that he would kill Lin Chen.

The reason why Xuan Yuan Ce is so high-profile is twofold: first, he learned that Lin Chen had crippled the Holy Maiden of the Ancient Clan and the Heir of the Ji Family; second, Xuan Yuan Ce was actually engaged to Gu Yun, the Holy Maiden of the Ancient Clan.

However, since Gu Yun was abandoned, the Xuanyuan clan refused to agree to the marriage.

After all, the ancient charm has no value or potential left.

"Looks like we'll have to skin a dragon alive," Lin Chen said.

Upon hearing this, the Grand Elder gasped in shock!
They're plotting against the Xuanyuan clan?!

That's the head of the four great divine races!
Its profound heritage surpasses even that of the ancient clans and the Ji family!

"Lin Chen, isn't this a bit too risky?" The First Elder's face was full of worry. "The Xuanyuan Clan is not someone to be trifled with."

A cold glint flashed in Lin Chen's eyes. "Since they've already put a knife to my throat, instead of waiting for them to kill me, I might as well... take the initiative!"

Seeing Lin Chen's decisive and ruthless demeanor, the First Elder pondered for a long time, but in the end, he did not object again.

Now, Lin Chen and even the Spirit Academy are inevitably irreconcilable enemies with the God Clan.

Any words of politeness would be insincere.

But he was still worried.

If the Tree Ancestor were still alive, with this pillar of strength guarding the sea, he naturally wouldn't have any worries.

But now, the Spirit Academy is lacking in high-end combat power. If something happens to Lin Chen outside, the consequences will be unimaginable!

Seemingly sensing the elder's concerns, Lin Chen smiled slightly and a thought crossed his mind.

"Little White, come out and show the Elder something."

"Moo~!"

With a deep and majestic bellow, Xiaobai's figure suddenly appeared in the quiet room!

The next second, without Lin Chen's command, it actively activated the divine and demonic bloodline within its body!
"Buzz!!!!"

A terrifying aura, a mixture of sacredness and primordial chaos, suddenly erupted!

The black and red divine and demonic body instantly appeared, and the towering phantom of the demonic bull condensed and took shape behind it!

The entire quiet room trembled violently under this oppressive force, as if it might collapse at any moment!

The Grand Elder's pupils instantly contracted to their maximum size!
……

dongshengshan

The area was shrouded in mist and filled with an ethereal atmosphere.

Since the rebirth of the gods, the Xuanyuan clan has occupied this blessed land with the richest spiritual energy, using it as their base for their return to the world.

Inside the palace atop the mountain, Xuanyuan Ce sat cross-legged, meditating with his eyes closed.

He had a handsome face, sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and was surrounded by a faint dragon aura, making him appear exceptionally noble.

Just then, a servant cautiously entered, knelt down, and respectfully said:
"Your Highness, there is someone outside the gate requesting an audience."

"Who?" Xuan Yuan Ce didn't even lift his eyelids, his voice cold.

“It’s a…outsider.” The servant’s voice carried a hint of excitement. “He said…he has the latest news about Lin Chen!”

"Shh!"

Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Ce's eyes snapped open!

Two beams of light, seemingly tangible, shot out!

Lin Chen?!
Without the slightest hesitation, he flashed and instantly appeared outside the palace.

There was an ordinary-looking beast tamer kneeling in front of the mountain gate with a look of fear on his face.

"You saw Lin Chen?" Xuan Yuan Ce asked from his superior position, his voice carrying an undeniable authority.

"Yes...yes!" The man trembled with fear and hurriedly said, "I...I saw it with my own eyes. Just an hour ago, Lin Chen appeared outside Liucheng at the foot of the mountain!"

"Are you sure you didn't see wrong?" Xuan Yuan Ce's gaze was as sharp as a hawk's.

"I would never dare to deceive Your Highness!" the man quickly raised his hand and swore, "I am willing to swear on my life!"

Xuanyuan Ce was no fool; he narrowed his eyes and coldly scrutinized the other party.

"Then why did you come looking for me? Don't the ancient clans and the Ji family hate Lin Chen even more?"

"You might get more benefits by selling the information to them."

Upon hearing this, a look of grief and indignation appeared on the man's face, and he choked out:
"Your Highness! My deceased wife was also killed by evil people back then!"

"I have heard about the matter between the Crown Prince and the Holy Maiden of Ancient Rhyme, and I deeply sympathize with your plight!"

"That's why...that's why I came to report the news immediately!"

These words were spoken with great emotion and eloquence, and it was impossible to find any flaws in them.

Xuanyuan Ce was skeptical, but in the end, he waved for the man to leave his detailed address and then let him go.

After that person left, a thoughtful light flickered in Xuanyuan Ce's eyes.

This whole thing is eerily strange.

It's very likely a setup.

Could it be... that Lin Chen, that fool, is trying to provoke me?

Thinking of this, a disdainful sneer appeared on Xuan Yuan Ce's lips.

To be honest, although he publicly declared that he would kill Lin Chen, deep down he wasn't entirely confident that he could actually defeat the illustrious Lin Chen.

The reason he was so high-profile was simply because he was certain that after offending the God Clan, Lin Chen would be like a stray dog, hiding and never daring to show his face again.

But now it seems that I underestimated the other party's courage.

"They actually thought they could lure me into a trap with such childish tricks..." Xuan Yuan Ce shook his head, a hint of contempt flashing in his eyes, "Truly... ridiculously naive!"

He'll definitely go, but he won't risk his life.

He turned around and, without the slightest hesitation, flew directly towards the highest peak of Dong Sheng Mountain.

Arriving before an ancient cave dwelling, Xuanyuan Ce straightened his robes, his expression solemn. He suddenly knelt down and, with all his might, shouted:
"This unworthy descendant, Xuanyuan Ce, humbly begs his ancestor... to come out of seclusion and help me slay the formidable enemy!"
