Destiny Beast Taming

Chapter 115 Imperial Edict: Traversing the Shadowy Corridor in the Midnight Sun!

Thinking of the secret realm points of Zhong Yi, Shen Xuan, and Zhong Ling that he had just discovered, Yan Han couldn't help but say.

"I was initially a little worried about Shen Xuan's potential rating, thinking that because a healing-type chosen one had emerged, you and Xiao Zhuo had relaxed your standards a bit."

"Looks like I was overthinking it!"

Upon hearing Yan Han's words, Wen Tao knew that Yan Han attributed Zhong Yi and the other two's complete exploration of this level-one ice cave secret realm to Shen Xuan's efforts.

Wen Tao didn't think so, but he didn't offer any further explanation.

After all, Zhong Yi had previously managed to obtain Divine Source Values ​​even while leading Zhong Ling, who wasn't even a Chosen One.

The one who truly shoulders the main responsibility in the Ice Cave Secret Realm is probably the humanoid beast that Zhongyi is even more eerie than the eerie itself.

Shen Xuan's potential rating was determined jointly by Wen Tao and Lin Zhuo.

Wen Tao was fully aware of Shen Xuan's strength and the effect he could have in battle.

If it weren't for Zhongyi's humanoid beast, which created a favorable environment for Shen Xuan to deal damage...

If Shen Xuan were to encounter a tribe of snow blizzard apes head-on, it would be unlikely that he could escape unscathed without sustaining injuries.

Suddenly, Wen Tao sensed the unusual movement of the Azure Spring Dragon in his Soul Foundation, and his expression immediately became serious. Brother Han, you should have the Hidden Moon Division of the Town Ghost Bureau send a few more Mythical-level Beastmasters to join the battle.

"The Yellow Springs Water will gush out from the body of that spider-like monster before tomorrow morning."

"That spider-like monster can no longer hide in Starlight City!"

Wen Tao initially chose to have his Order Beast, Biluoquanlong, withstand the full-force attack launched by the Night-Cutting Spider using its rule authority.

Besides knowing Zhongyi's healing abilities, Wen Tao also didn't want this spider-like monster, which had gained control of the rules, to continue causing trouble in Star City.

Under the agreement signed between the New Summer Federation and the Moon Purification Cult, combat power above the Mythical rank is not allowed to participate in Mythical rank battles.

If these two Mythical-level monsters insist on hiding, even if Star City dispatches more than ten Mythical-level combatants, it will be difficult to find them, after all, Star City is just too big!

Wen Tao has already requested Elder Cui to activate the first barrier of the Blood and Bone Great Wall.

The activation of the first barrier of the Blood Bone Great Wall will not reveal the true form of the Blood Bone Great Wall.

However, if these two mythical-level monsters wanted to escape outside the city, they would be able to sense the presence of the Blood Bone Great Wall a thousand kilometers north of Falling Star Mountain.

Wen Tao needs to prevent these two mythical-level monsters from resorting to desperate measures.

This spider-shaped monster, which controls the power of rules, took the initiative to cause trouble in Star City, which in fact brought an opportunity to Star City.

A strange embryo with rules has the potential to allow a bizarre being to wield the power of rules.

This is equivalent to adding half a Chosen One to Star City without anyone noticing.

The strange creature that has mastered the power of the rules—if it could join the six-person team of the Chosen Ones.

It can significantly increase the potential strength of a six-person team.

Shunlan said with an extremely serious expression.

"Don't worry, Tao, the Zhengui Division will definitely not let your sacrifice be in vain."

"The Hidden Moon Clan is now eager to salvage the strange image it has in the minds of the Starlight City residents."

"They are very willing to send more mythical-level monsters to participate in this siege."

"I'll take care of this. You stay at Starfrost Tower with Juanjuan and Xiaochen."

"Your Order Beast essence has been damaged, and you are no longer suitable to participate in battle."

"With the Star Emperor himself planting the Star-Picking Trumpet Tree in the Star Frost Tower, and with the Star-Picking Trumpet Tree growing alongside the tower, the tower is absolutely safe."

After saying that, Yan Han lightly stepped on his left foot, and the instep of his left foot shone with a blue light that was bright enough to see through his boot.

Immediately afterwards, Yan Han vanished from the Star Frost Tower like a gust of wind.

Star City has been under martial law for the past few days, and the Bureau of Demon Suppression is patrolling the three major urban areas.

This is one of the few times in the past decade that the Zhengui Division has dispatched a large number of personnel to conduct a large-scale patrol in the lower city.

If it weren't for gaining official recognition from Star City and receiving a brocade robe bearing the insignia of the Town of Demons, thus becoming a semi-official figure...

Liao Zhou would definitely be very anxious at this moment, and most likely he has already fled Star City with Liao Min, Liao Peng, and the wealth accumulated by the Evil Blood Sect over the years.

Besides the Blood Cult, the Lower City also has many other large and small factions composed of strange entities.

Even the forces that used to act boldly and recklessly have now all fallen silent.

Many of the lone, elusive creatures actively fled Star City and hid in the markets of various secret realms outside the city, fearing they would be affected.

Liao Zhou seized this opportunity and had Liao Peng use an iron fist to screen and eliminate the remaining members of the Evil Blood Cult, including Wu Kezhuo and Yang Napei's old subordinates.

Liao Zhou decided to deal with all those who were still unwilling to surrender.

While making this decision, Liao Zhou also instructed Liao Min to absorb as much of the strange phenomena within Star City as possible, thereby strengthening the power of the Evil Blood Cult.

Of course, Liao Zhou would strictly manage these newly recruited oddballs.

Previously, in order to help Liao Min and Liao Peng improve their strength, and also to expand their own power under the noses of Wu Kezhuo and Yang Naipei.

Liao Zhou has broken the rules multiple times!

However, now that there is no internal competition, Liao Zhou has become even more law-abiding than Wu Kezhuo and Yang Naipei were back then.

He strictly manages all his subordinates, and anyone who breaks the rules will be dealt with severely.

Liao Zhou would not hesitate to eliminate the person and then send the corpse to the Zhen Gui Si (a local anti-spirit bureau).

Liao Zhou gave Liao Min and Liao Peng repeated instructions, as he knew their personalities very well.

One was cautious, the other reckless, but both were very obedient to their parents.

Liao Zhou had previously explained to the two the benefits of surrendering to the Star City government, and Liao Min and Liao Peng had taken it to heart.

Unlike the Evil Blood Cult, which is thriving and actively expanding amidst this turmoil, Qin Ruyue has been extremely anxious these past two days.

Because they discovered that there were eight mysterious, mythical-level guards at the city gate.

The Weird has a strong ability to perceive Weirdness of the same level.

These eight peak-level mythical beings, controlled by the Devious Ones, harbored even greater hatred for these foreign beings than ordinary Beast Tamers. Shi Mi, having broken free from the control of the Moon-Cleansing Mother Gu, was eager to forcefully break through and escape Starlight City.

However, Qin Ruyue had to restrict Shi Mi.

Given the current injuries sustained by the Night-Cutting Spider, Qin Ruyue was not confident that she could successfully break through the encirclement of eight Mythical-level monsters.

Wen Tao's Azure Spring Dragon could sense that the Yellow Spring Source Water was about to gush out of the Night-Cutting Spider's body.

As the contractor of the Night-Cutting Spider, Qin Ruyue was naturally able to sense it as well.

"What exactly does Qin Ruyue want in Starlight City? We can easily break through together, so why are we choosing to stay in Starlight City?"

"When I first partnered with you, it was to find a way to survive under the rule of these chosen ones in Star City, not to help you achieve some kind of goal in Star City."

"If you're not willing to break through with me, then I think our cooperation should end."

Shi Mi spoke with great confidence, saying that while he couldn't beat Qin Ruyue, Qin Ruyue wouldn't dare to fight him in Star City.

Once they make a move, their locations will be exposed, and Qin Ruyue will suffer the same fate as herself.

These past two days, Shi Mi has increasingly felt that Qin Ruyue's behavior is strange, always giving Shi Mi the feeling of being timid and hesitant. Based on Shi Mi's understanding of Qin Ruyue, Qin Ruyue is not the kind of person who acts timidly.

Otherwise, the Night-Slaying Spider wouldn't have been allowed to reproduce millions of offspring, freely spreading throughout the upper and lower city districts in search of its tracks.

Upon hearing this, Qin Ruyue looked at Shi Mi with a furious yet mocking smile.

"If you want to break through, I won't stop you."

"Do you think you can defeat those eight mythical-level monsters guarding the city?"

"These mythical-rank monsters, trained by the Star City government, are no less powerful than the elites of the Moon Cleansing Sect."

"If you try to break through, believe me, as soon as you start fighting, it will immediately attract more mythical-level experts from the Star City government."

"We haven't been caught yet, not because we're good at hiding."

"It's because the Star City government is wary of the contract signed between the New Summer Alliance and the Moon Cleansing Sect."

"You have betrayed the Moon Purification Sect and are no longer considered a Shadow Purifier of the Moon Purification Sect."

"You said if I leaked the information, the official experts of Star City, those above the Mythical Rank, would attack you."

Even if you manage to break through the encirclement and escape Star City, do you think you'll have a chance of survival?

Qin Ruyue's lukewarm threat immediately subdued Shi Mi.

Shi Mi, now in such a sorry state, harbored a deep resentment towards Qin Ruyue.

Now, being threatened by Qin Ruyue, he grew angrier the more he thought about it.

Just as Shi Mi had the thought of "destroy it," Qin Ruyue took out a bottle-like object from her soul base, but the bottle had many tiny holes on it.

The moment Shi Mi saw the bottle-like object, her expression changed drastically.

Because Shi Mi sensed a strong power of rules emanating from this dark bottle.

"Qin Ruyue's strange beast possesses the authority over the rules, and it even has a matching Imperial Arms."

"Could it be that you directly devoured the Order Beasts?"

After ascending to the Mythical rank, the Chosen One can co-create Imperial Arms with the Order Beast.

Imperial Arms allow Chosen Ones to better utilize the power of rules.

The gap between Mythical Chosen Ones and ordinary Beast Tamers widens even further with the appearance of Imperial Arms.

Imperial Arms are objects that can be stolen after a Chosen One is killed.

However, Imperial Arms must be constantly nurtured by the power of the rules that give birth to them; otherwise, they will gradually lose their function and eventually break down on their own.

Not only does the New Summer Federation protect newly born Chosen Ones, but other federations do the same.

Killing a newly born Chosen One under heavy protection is likely to be more difficult than killing a Mythical Chosen One.

Typically, most of the deceased chosen ones were at the Mythical rank.

After all, with a large amount of resources invested, it is not difficult for the Chosen One to improve the rank and quality of the Order Beast.

However, the strange thing is that by devouring Order Beasts or Rule-based Devouring Embryos, they plunder the rule authority of the Chosen One.

However, very few Imperial Arms have survived!

The Rule-based Devious Embryos are passed down from generation to generation. Even if the Devious Ones who devoured the Rule-based Devious Embryos possess Imperial Arms, the Imperial Arms are still their life-saving treasures.

If they died in battle, they likely used up their Imperial Arms before they died.

Many Mythic-rank and above Chosen Ones are killed if they are not suddenly controlled and killed during battle.

In battles involving life and death, they will often choose to sacrifice their Imperial Arms.

If faced with a certain death, they will usually destroy their Imperial Arms before dying to prevent it from falling into the hands of the supernatural.

For a being of the supernatural, finding a combination of a Rule-based Supernatural Embryo and an Imperial Arm that resonates with their own Supernatural Beast is incredibly difficult.

All of Qin Ruyue's gains in the first half of her life could be said to have been made up for by this combination that was perfectly suited to the Night-Cutting Spider.

Qin Ruyue, seemingly oblivious to the greed in Shi Mi's eyes, spoke to Shi Mi.

"In Starlight City, there is a Chosen One who uses an Imperial Arm to cast a decree that is extremely effective against my Night-Slicing Spider."

"However, the three hundred spider slaves I ambushed brought me a lot of useful information."

"There's no need for the two of us to ambush the entrance to that secret ice cave."

Upon hearing this, Shi Mi's brows furrowed sharply.

"Didn't you say you were going to kidnap the newly chosen ones and force Star City to let us leave?"

"Why aren't you going now?"

"The upper city and most of the lower city have been thoroughly searched, and the secret guards of the Town Ghost Bureau are hidden everywhere."

"If we don't try to kidnap the newly chosen ones, we have no choice but to break through by force."

"Since you weren't going, why didn't you agree to help with the breakout?"

Qin Ruyue snorted coldly.

"I don't know much about the Chosen Ones inside Star City, but according to the information Spider Slave reported to me..."

"A Chosen One of Mythical Rank or higher awaits at the entrance to that icy cave secret realm. Are we going to walk right into a trap?"

"We attacked the newly chosen ones of Star City right under her nose. Do you think she will still choose to abide by the contract with the Moon Cleansing Cult?"

"A new mansion for the Chosen One has been put into use in the central city, and I sent several Spider Slaves to make contact with it."

"I don't do things like you, where you only think about the beginning and not the end."

After saying that, Qin Ruyue brought the black bottle, which was covered with holes, to her lips.

While playing the instrument, he gently began to whisper.

"In the dead of night, a decree is issued: traverse the shadowy corridors of the lost night."

As Qin Ruyue played her instrument softly, the night sky before them suddenly began to churn.

In the depths of the night, a colossal creature is about to emerge.

A long corridor, seemingly blending into the night, is constantly being built and manifested.

Shi Mi could already sense that several Mythical-level auras were heading towards the direction where she and Qin Ruyue were.

Just as Shi Mi was about to respond, Qin Ruyue spoke quickly.

"Keep up with me!"

Before she could finish speaking, Qin Ruyue stepped into a long corridor that seemed to belong out of nowhere, seemingly built out of thin air in the depths of darkness.

Four mythical-level monsters and two mythical-level beast tamers were standing at the location where the corridor had appeared.

Their bodies strangely overlapped with the corridor, yet they were unaware of its existence.

"What happened?"

"There was a strong energy fluctuation coming from here just now, and my natal beast's perception is definitely not wrong."
