My cells devour all worlds.

Yan Yuxuan still remembers the time decades ago when he became the champion of the Alliance Tournament and took over the baton from the previous legendary Beastmaster.

He was overjoyed, believing himself to be the strongest person in the world and that his tamed beast was the strongest spirit beast in the world.

As he gradually uncovered the secrets of the Alliance, he learned that those legendary mythical beasts were real.

Each region has its own guardian beast.

They are incredibly powerful, each possessing earth-shattering strength, guarding their respective regions, and rarely appearing before the world.

Even the contract was created by one of the crowned deer.

It was then that Yan Yuxuan realized his own insignificance, and how ridiculous the power he pursued was compared to it.

Above these mythical beasts, there exist even more powerful beings.

They control the rules of heaven and earth, they maintain the operation of the world, they create living beings, they are immortal and indestructible, they are omnipotent... They are gods!

Since then, Yan Yuxuan has had new pursuits.

He wanted to contract a divine beast; he wanted to see the true 'god'.

However, despite being at the pinnacle of beast taming at the time, despite being a legendary beast tamer, and despite making many contributions to the Alliance during his tenure, no divine beast accepted him.

He was never answered by any "god".

Yan Yuxuan had originally planned to give up, but then he encountered the original Dark Tide organization during an operation.

At that time, the Dark Tide organization only had a handful of members and had not yet grown.

There were only a few old, weak, sick, and disabled people inside; the strongest was just an apprentice beast tamer.

The rest either have poor innate talent, or their contracted beasts are also extremely poor, making it difficult to change anything in their lifetime.

Either they have a terminal illness and don't have long to live.

Either they're very old and have hardly any teeth left.

With just a wave of his hand, he could uproot the entire Dark Tide organization and annihilate it.

He hesitated after learning about their somewhat crazy ideas and seeing their half-finished products.

Several individuals advocated for a "people-centered" approach, prioritizing self-improvement and replacing contracts with other methods, which completely overturned the existing situation...

To survive and to become stronger, they dared to do anything and try any crazy idea.

Yan Yuxuan seemed to see a path he had never imagined before.

A path to godhood.

With a glimmer of hope, Yan Yuxuan secretly kept the matter a secret.

In his spare time, he would occasionally check on the progress of the others.

After witnessing how the group successfully saved the terminally ill person through their radical modifications, Yan Yuxuan admitted that he was tempted.

Especially after he learned about the alliance's biggest secret, Yan Yuxuan's desire became more and more urgent and he could no longer suppress it.

Legend has it that long, long ago, the continents of the world were connected as one, forming a single, unified continent, unlike the scattered continents we see today.

It wasn't until humans who gained the ability to form contracts were no longer satisfied with the status quo, and began to expand with their beast tamers, constantly encroaching on the territory that originally belonged to the spirit beasts.

A beast of destruction was born, created to destroy humanity.

That is the Calamity Monarch, the Beast of Annihilation—the Ember Ape.

Unlike other mythical beasts that possess the ability to create and maintain, He represents destruction, chaos, annihilation, and a fresh start.

Its appearance brought disaster.

It is the most human-like creature, yet it is the terminator of humanity.

However, he did not succeed.

When the Ember Ape made its move, the divine beasts that maintained the world's operation and stability appeared.

If they do not stop it, not only humans, but also other spirit beasts and the entire world will fall into instability.

So they joined forces to suppress the Ember Ape.

In this process, the continent was broken into several pieces, the larger ones becoming the later regions and the smaller ones becoming the later islands.

It was from that time that the rudimentary Beast Taming Alliance was established.

Humanity began to reflect, to curb, and to change.

The more Yan Yuxuan learned, the more excited he became.

He guessed that the Ember Ape was very likely like those divine beasts, immortal and indestructible, but was simply suppressed somewhere.

Sure enough, through his digging, he finally found information about the Extinction Ape.

Since God won't come to him, then he will become God!

Yan Yuxuan immediately decided to join the Dark Tide organization, using his identity as a legendary beast tamer to cover for and provide convenience for the group.

With his help, the Dark Tide organization rapidly grew and expanded, attracting more talent and making greater progress.

Subsequently, Yan Yuxuan was not satisfied with this and wanted to devote himself to it wholeheartedly.

So he handed over the legendary Beastmaster title to the new league champions and stepped down to the sidelines, but he still did not give up his position in the league.

With him as an inside man, the Dark Tide organization developed steadily without any major problems, and gradually moved in the direction he desired.

Human body modification... Beast taming and control... Consciousness replacement...

During this process, Yan Yuxuan successfully controlled the mythical beast he had once longed for by utilizing the technology of the Dark Tide organization.

He changed his appearance again and was re-elected as a legendary beast tamer several times.

Under his manipulation, for decades, no one realized that the Dark Tide organization, which the Alliance hated most, had actually been right under their noses all along...

The memories in Yan Yuxuan's eyes faded, and he was already sitting on the instrument at the very center of the island.

The cyborg closed the devices for him one by one.

After planning for so many years, it can finally be realized today. Even Yan Yuxuan could not hide his excitement.

The island below is the head of the Ember Ape, whose consciousness has long been obliterated, leaving only a divine body.

Now that all the necessary elements for lifting the lockdown are in place, it's time to become a god.

Yan Yuxuan took a deep breath, closed his eyes under the control of the cyborg, and his consciousness was extracted and submerged into a patch of crimson lava.

"boom--"

The earthquake caused a massive crack, and like a volcanic eruption, pillars of crimson magma shot into the sky, transforming into a rain of fire that fell from the heavens.

"Boom!"

Immediately afterwards, a pair of hands reached out, gripped both sides of the crack, and forcefully tore the earth open, from which a mountain-like figure rose.

It was a dark red giant ape with four arms, its skin rough like solidified lava, covered with cracks of varying depths.

Orange-red light shone through the cracks, like magma slowly flowing beneath the skin.

"roar--"

The giant ape pounded its chest with all four hands and let out a deafening roar that pierced the clouds.

The sound waves materialized and diffused out in a ring.

The shattered arena, which had already become a ruin, instantly disintegrated and vanished. The nearby beasts seemed to have been erased by an eraser, and in the blink of an eye, they blurred into tiny fragments.

In the blink of an eye, it had vanished from the world without a trace.

The roar dissipated, and the area within several kilometers instantly became a vacuum, where everything was erased.

Even the clouds in the sky disappeared, revealing a clear blue sky.

"This is the power of God! This is the feeling of God!"

The giant ape clenched its fists, surveyed the scene around it created by its roar, and spoke in human language.

It was Yan Yuxuan, who had already taken control of the body of the Extinction Ape.

Yan Yuxuan felt his new body and the power within him, and couldn't help but open his four arms as if embracing the whole world.

"Your god has returned..."
