Fantasy Mountains and Seas, My Mountain and Sea Beast Taming

"I'll show you each one one by one. We, the Titans, do indeed have unique skills in forging beast-taming relics."

"Athena's most powerful beast-taming relics should always be with her."

"However, she probably didn't take her 12 Gold Cloths with her. Shall I take you to see them?"

Hermes spoke to Xu Ran with great enthusiasm.

As he spoke, he got up and walked ahead, intending to lead Xu Ran to see what was supposedly Athena's Gold Cloth.

Are you serious?

Xu Ran couldn't quite understand what this powerful Titan was thinking.

But since the other party dared to take him to see it, Xu Ran was not intimidated.

Are you kidding me? Xu Ran has seen so much of the world, would he be scared by such a petty scheme?

The two continued walking forward like this.

Athena's temple was so vast that even after Xu Ran had been exploring it for half a day, he still hadn't reached the end.

However, as Xu Ran followed Hermes deeper into the temple, he discovered the presence of numerous spatial abilities.

These spatial abilities are used to prevent someone from going to a certain place.

But to Hermes, it was as if none of these things existed, and he led Xu Ran across layer after layer of spatial restrictions.

He continued to talk with Xu Ran as they walked.

"Although it cannot compare to the most powerful beast-taming relics of the Titans, Athena's 12 Gold Cloths also have their unique features."

"This is a beast-taming relic that Athena created at the end of the Titan Era due to some unexpected gains."

"Within this lies the power of the stars, and the power of the stars will only manifest at the end of an era..."

Hermes, without a care, told Xu Ran all the secrets that belonged to Athena.

These may seem like just minor secrets, but they brought Xu Ran some gains.

The power of stars that will only appear at the end of an era?

Could it be the power of the Heavenly Court?

After all, the carriers of power that symbolize matter are the stars and celestial bodies!

But this was just Xu Ran's guess.

Hermes' explanation continued.

"However, this angered Hephaestus. He felt that if he were to use these materials, he would surely be able to create the most exquisite beast-taming relics..."

"The reason Athena was able to create the Gold Cloth was entirely due to the superior quality of the materials."

"By the way, among the Titans, besides those Cyclopes, the most skilled at crafting beast-taming artifacts is Hephaestus..."

Hermes talked nonstop the whole way.

It unfolds slowly from a single point, seemingly revealing all the secrets belonging to the Titan race to Xu Ran.

Later on, he even told Xu Ran all the conflicts between the various Titans.

Even some of the weaknesses of the Titans were revealed to Xu Ran indirectly through a series of small stories.

Dude, what exactly do you want?!

Xu Ran is truly confused now.

Why are you telling yourself all this?

He really has no interest in these things!

Moreover, isn't the relationship between your Titan race and the different Titan gods a bit too complicated?

Your circle is really messy!

This violated ethics, allowing different powerful Titans to give birth to Titans with entirely new authority.

Xu Ran kept his distance from him.

Even Athena, among this group of Titans, was considered a pure and innocent white lotus.

If one belongs to the Titan race, one can certainly use these weaknesses and secrets to control individual Titans.

The problem is that Xu Ran has no interest in the Titans other than their knowledge.

As they talked, the two arrived at a treasure vault.

It seemed that Hermes possessed some kind of authority, as the two of them effortlessly crossed the barrier and entered directly inside.

At the same time, what appeared before Xu Ran were 12 sets of golden Saint Cloths, each with a different design.

Xu Ran sensed a powerful force emanating from these golden armors!

It seems that authority has been imprinted into it through some means!

Xu Ran was even certain that if a king-level beast tamer were to wear these golden holy armors, it could unleash mythical-level combat power!

"Truly a masterpiece!"

After a brief period of perception, Xu Ran couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

Every time Xu Ran witnessed the profound depth of these top-tier mythological lineages, he was filled with awe.

The beast-taming relics used as collectibles in any branch of the mythology treasury can easily create 12 mythology-level combatants!

The true power of the Titans is now fully revealed!

Xu Ran also became even more eager for the knowledge of forging beast-taming relics possessed by the Titans.

"Just take a look."

Hermes pointed to the 12 golden armors in the treasury and said to Xu Ran.

Xu Ran nodded and took a few steps forward to touch the golden armor with his hands.

Trying my best to perceive the method of imprinting authority into extraordinary materials.

Just as Xu Ran was perceiving the reverse deduction of forging knowledge, Hermes appeared behind him.

This immediately put Xu Ran on alert.

He turned around and glanced at Hermes standing behind him.

Hermes was holding a golden armor in his hand, which he handed to Xu Ran.

"You can take it if you want; I don't think Athena will mind."

Hermes was lying through his teeth.

He easily gave away a top-tier beast-taming relic that clearly did not belong to him to Xu Ran.

"Isn't this a bad idea?"

Xu Ran looked at Hermes and said.

But Hermes handed the golden relic in his hand forward once more.

"Didn't I say I'd take you to see the forging methods belonging to the [Titan race]?"

"It's going to be a bit cold where we're going next, so I was thinking of giving you an extra layer of clothing."

Hermes spoke to Xu Ran with a gentle smile on his face.

But this seemingly ordinary sentence alerted Xu Ran.

It's getting cold, should I put on another layer?

Xu Ran recalled Hermes' words and glanced at the golden armor in Hermes' hand.

Or was it a yellow robe?

This reminded Xu Ran of certain anecdotes from his past life.

Xu Ran then recalled the Titans' weaknesses and secrets that Hermes had told him during what seemed like a casual conversation on the road.

Suddenly, the sense of déjà vu from certain stories in my past life became stronger and stronger!

What exactly does this strange Titan want to do?

Doesn't all of this look like he's about to be crowned emperor?

On what grounds?

I've only been here with the Titans for a day!

The foolish old banquet was alright, as he only had the intention of grooming himself to be the next generation's lineage leader.

The Underworld is a bit more extreme; Horus is willing to end his own life early so that he can become the new Pharaoh of the Underworld.

However, it's understandable that such gamblers would act in extreme ways.

But what's wrong with you Titans?

Why does it seem like they're trying to elevate themselves to the position of the head of the lineage?

Do you also maintain this traitorous nature towards the head of your own lineage?

Xu Ran fell silent, even wondering if he had awakened some strange new characteristic.

How come if you randomly steal the lineage master, the other party will want to make you the next lineage master?

Have you considered how the Beast Tamers feel when they are born with the true essence and authority of their lineage?

It's one thing to leave the old banquet of fools behind, but Li Fu's account is basically useless now, so it's normal for him to consider creating a new account.

But Doom of the Underworld and Bellaharie of the Titans are absolutely right!

Being superior to others often leaves one in a helpless and passive position.

What I truly enjoy is actually just getting something for free.

Get resources for free from various mythological lineages.

"I think you might have misunderstood something."

Xu Ran spoke seriously to Hermes in front of him.

Xu Ran is really not that kind of person!

However, Hermes shook his head in response to Xu Ran's righteous and eloquent reply.

"There's no need to pretend anymore. Athena isn't in her temple. With me here, you don't need to worry about other beings spying on you."

Hermes said this to Xu Ran.

He had an expression that said he had seen through all of Xu Ran's pretense.

"Besides, you don't really intend to hide your identity properly, do you?"

Hermes stared at Xu Ran and said.

His true identity?

Xu Ran was taken aback.

What is his true identity that he is hiding?

What exactly are you referring to?

Don't use riddles with him here, why not just tell him the answer directly and honestly?

The real identity you're referring to, could it be, the reservoir caretaker in Daze City?

This is indeed his most deeply hidden identity!

Could it be that Hermes figured this out?

Great!

It should be noted that none of the Outer Gods, whether it was Odin, Horus, or the Shapeshifter, could see through his deepest hidden identity!

But Hermes' next words told Xu Ran that he was wrong.

"The aura of divine blessing emanating from you is so strong it can't be concealed!"

"In other mythologies, it might be possible to hide the past, but there is no such possibility among the Titans."

Hermes said this to Xu Ran.

Xu Ren also knew that Hermes said he had no way of hiding the aura of the Outer Gods' blessing on him among the Titans.

Because Xu Ran knew that these branches of the Titans were chosen by the Outer Gods during the Titan Era!

How could the Titan God, who was also a chosen god of the Outer Gods, not be able to distinguish the aura of blessings bestowed upon Xu Ran?

It was only then that Xu Ran realized that Hermes had not recognized his identity as the deepest hidden caretaker of the Dazeshi Reservoir.

Instead, he recognized himself as one of the so-called Four Divine Immortals!

"You possess the blessings of four Outer Gods simultaneously; such a thing has never happened even in the entire Titan Era!"

"A unique individual like Athena has at most received the blessings of two Outer Gods simultaneously!"

"And what does it mean that you simultaneously possess the blessings of four Outer Gods? Are you going to continue pretending?"

Hermes, with a knowing look in his eyes, spoke to Xu Ran.

The first and second generation of god-kings were both pure-blooded Titans, products of the Outer Gods' exploration of the path to authority.

When the path of power proved impassable, they turned their attention to the special race of humankind.

Thus, the three generations of God-Kings were born, powerful beings of mixed human and Titan blood!

However, it is clear that this path did not allow Outer Gods to break through the barriers of the eras and freely descend into one era after another.

Based on the trend of development, it is highly likely that the new god-king that the Outer Gods will support will be a pure-blooded human beast tamer!

However, before they could support the rise of the fourth generation of God-King and overthrow the rule of the third generation of God-King, they had already begun to act.

The Titan Era then came to an end.

The three generations of God-Kings led them to break free from the control of the Outer Gods and successfully crossed eras to arrive in the current era of the Alliance.

However, all branches of the Titan mythology know that their connection with the Outer Gods could not possibly end so easily!

One day they will face a choice between the three generations of God-Kings and the Outer Gods' Chosen!

During their wait, a special individual finally appeared among the Titans.

A bizarre pure-blooded human beast tamer who possesses the blessings of four Outer Gods simultaneously!

Such a unique identity!

Furthermore, they could sense the Outer God's blessing emanating from this pure-blooded human beast tamer, which was undoubtedly the most supreme level of blessing!

Even the blessings of the Lord of Change and the Lord of Desire are beyond their imagination!

It's as if these two Outer Gods' incarnations have merged into one!

Xu Ran is such a special pure-blooded human beast tamer!

Analyzing these aspects of Xu Ran, his identity becomes quite clear...

—The four generations of god-kings supported by the Outer Gods!

Xu Ran's appearance means that all the Titans of the Titan race have to choose sides.

Should we side with Zeus, the third-generation god-king, or with Xu Ran, the "fourth-generation god-king"?

On the very day Xu Ran appeared among the Titans, all the Titans chose their own factions.

Hermes, on the other hand, chose to stand with Xu Ran, the fourth generation of god-kings, one of the four chosen gods!

Furthermore, they must help Xu Ran gain the support of other branches of the Titan mythology and work together to defeat Zeus, the third-generation god-king.

Ultimately, the lineage leader was replaced by Xu Ran!

Looking at Hermes' expression.

Xu Ran knew that this Titan God had definitely misunderstood something!

The Outer Gods definitely planted something within the Titan race, but the one who planted it was definitely not themselves!

Xu Ran knew his own situation best.

I myself am part of the arrangement of some being!

As for the blessings bestowed upon him by the Four Gods?

This was an accident!

"Wait, wouldn't the Outer Gods just play along and replace the candidate with themselves?"

Xu Ran suddenly realized this.

Suddenly, he felt a sense of powerlessness, as if those around him were determined to place the imperial robe on him, and he was powerless to stop them!

Let him defeat Zeus, the third-generation king of the gods, and become the fourth-generation king of the gods?

real or fake?

Is this another high-level match? (End of Chapter)
