Celestial Beast Taming

One reason was Frost Day’s personality.

Rather than acting as his representative and expressing her own opinions, Frost Day preferred to stay by Star Night’s side.

She acted in concert with him.

The second reason was closely related to the Exclusive Traits of Frost Day’s Order Beast, the Hoarfrost Evening Glory.

The Hoarfrost Evening Glory’s offensive power was immense, but once its flowers detached from their vines to use Broken Flower, Fallen Butterfly, Shattered Ice, it needed a period of accumulation before they could regrow.

During this time, the Hoarfrost Evening Glory still possessed combat strength.

However, its combat ability would drop by a significant degree.

Half of the Hoarfrost Evening Glory’s vines protected the main residence behind it, while two other vines guarded the area where the Sun Splendor Thorn was located.

After more than a hundred of its flowers transformed into Broken Flower, Fallen Butterfly, Shattered Ice and slammed into the Punishment Flame Griffin, the Hoarfrost Evening Glory had effectively lost its ability to fight.

An attack like this, landing on a Punishment Flame Griffin that had just struggled to resist the Fallen Star Ravine, was as futile as a moth flying into a flame.

The Flower Butterflies, formed from the Hoarfrost Evening Glory’s petals, dissolved silently all over the Punishment Flame Griffin’s body.

On the surface, the Punishment Flame Griffin didn’t seem to be affected much.

But in reality, the frigid air was like silver needles burrowing under its skin, traveling along its bloodstream before finally converging at the Punishment Flame Griffin’s heart.

The Rule mastered by the Hoarfrost Evening Glory was antithetical to the Flame Burst Rule mastered by the Punishment Flame Griffin.

When two opposing Powers of Rules clashed, the resulting destructive force was far greater than the sum of its parts.

Flower Venerable knew full well that both Star Emperor and Frost Day only had their Order Beasts present here.

’I’m the only one here who can take on the heavy responsibility of delivering the finishing blow!’

Just as Flower Venerable was about to summon another one of her Guardian Beasts to finish off the heavily injured Punishment Flame Griffin,

she saw that Zhong Yi had, at some unknown point, appeared on the vines of the Hoarfrost Evening Glory that were protecting the main residence.

Flower Venerable hurried over in Zhong Yi’s direction.

The Punishment Flame Griffin looked utterly wretched after taking the full-force blow from Frost Day’s Order Beast.

But in truth, at the Peak of Ten Thousand Nations Level, whether it was a Celestial Destiny Seeker’s Order Beast, a Deceit Beast Master’s Lifebound Deceit Beast, or even an ordinary Guardian Beast, all of them possessed immense Life Force.

They were by no means so easy to kill.

This Punishment Flame Griffin could very well have a Support Type recovery Ability.

Flower Venerable then saw Zhong Yi suddenly summon his Order Beast, the Resurrection Celestial Lord.

Immediately after, a series of Cores of Resurgence shot toward the Punishment Flame Griffin, whose body was still rigid from the assault of Broken Flower, Fallen Butterfly, Shattered Ice.

Flower Venerable had personally witnessed Zhong Yi use his Healing Skills before.

She had even tangibly experienced the healing effects of a Core of Resurgence within her own body.

’Has Zhong Yi been scared silly?’

’Why is he healing this invading Deceit Beast at a time like this!?’

Stunned, Flower Venerable did not move to block the nearly ten Cores of Resurgence flying toward the Punishment Flame Griffin.

Meanwhile, the Prince of Deceit was furious and anxious.

The injuries to his Lifebound Deceit Beast, the Punishment Flame Griffin, were far too severe. They had damaged its very Origin, making recovery extremely difficult.

’That damn wicked woman, Flower Venerable, still hasn’t stopped her Blood Ripple Tumi from stripping away the Punishment Flame Griffin’s life span.’

The Blood Ripple Tumi had a powerful anti-healing effect, greatly diminishing the Punishment Flame Griffin’s restorative abilities within its own flames.

Faced with the Energy Crystals containing the Power of a Healing Rule, the Prince of Deceit paid them no mind.

Even if these few crystals contained destructive energy instead of Healing Energy,

the Prince of Deceit wouldn’t have made the Punishment Flame Griffin—already suffering from the Erosion of frost energy—force itself to move at the cost of its body cracking apart.

An Ability unleashed by a mere Mortal Beast Tier Order Beast was simply not worth a second glance from an expert at the Peak of Ten Thousand Nations Level.

The moment before these Cores of Resurgence entered the Punishment Flame Griffin’s body, the Power of the Healing Rule suddenly transformed.

It became a Power of Destruction Rule capable of causing the Dissolution of its genetic template!

These Cores of Resurgence, altered by Zhong Yi’s Beastmaster Talent, Extreme Reversal, entered the Punishment Flame Griffin’s body.

They naturally triggered the Punishment Flame Griffin’s genetic template.

Only this time, instead of making the Punishment Flame Griffin consume its own internal Energy to heal its injuries according to its genetic template,

it caused the Punishment Flame Griffin to consume its Energy to induce the Dissolution of its own genetic template.

During this process of genetic Dissolution, the Punishment Flame Griffin’s ability to even voluntarily mobilize the Energy in its body was hindered.

For a moment, the Prince of Deceit felt as if he had lost all control over the Punishment Flame Griffin.

The Punishment Flame Griffin had been constantly mobilizing its Energy and Power of Rules to resist the damage from Frost Day’s killing move, Broken Flower, Fallen Butterfly, Shattered Ice.

It needed to use the Burning Rule and Flame Element within its body to counteract the Freezing Power that had invaded it.

But under the influence of these few Cores of Destruction, the Punishment Flame Griffin temporarily lost its ability to resist this Freezing Power.

Keep in mind, in order to resist the all-out attack of Broken Flower, Fallen Butterfly, Shattered Ice that Frost Day had launched at any cost,

the Punishment Flame Griffin had already stopped resisting the life-draining Ability of Flower Venerable’s Order Beast, Blood Ripple Tumi, which operated through the Withering Rule.

The Deceit Knight, who was fused with his Lifebound Deceit Beast, the Eternal Flame Nightmare, roared, "Useless!"

The Punishment Flame Griffin was now temporarily immobilized, its body suffused with immense Freezing Power.

The Prince of Deceit had no way to recall the heavily injured Punishment Flame Griffin into his Soul Base, otherwise his own Soul Base would also be frozen by this Freezing Power.

Regardless of their power Level, for both Guardian Beast Masters and Deceit Beast Masters, the Soul Base was always relatively fragile.

Unwilling to abandon his comrade, the Deceit Knight could not choose to retreat.

If he retreated, his comrade would either be killed by these two Peak of Ten Thousand Nations Level Order Beasts,

or become a captive of the Xin Xia Alliance.

No matter which outcome occurred, he was certain to be punished by the Mass Divine Sect.

’One of these two Order Beasts has already exhausted its Energy. Only Star Emperor’s Fallen Star Night Qilin still poses a threat.’

’Just give the Punishment Flame Griffin some time,’ he thought. ’Even if it can’t dispel the Freezing Power in its body, it can still recover its mobility!’

However, after Zhong Yi had used Extreme Reversal to change the effect of the Cores of Resurgence,

he did not stop his assault!

Instead, he had the Resurrection Celestial Lord use its Exclusive Trait, Withered Oasis, to unleash all of its stored damage onto the Punishment Flame Griffin.

Up to this point, Zhong Yi had mostly healed targets below the Immortal Tier.

But he had also treated Immortal and Eternal Tier Creatures.

Take Tao En’s injuries, for example; wounds involving the soul level were extremely severe.

The damage stored within Withered Oasis wouldn’t amount to much against a Peak of Ten Thousand Nations Level Deceit Beast at its full strength.

But for the Punishment Flame Griffin in its current state, it was undoubtedly the last straw that broke the camel’s back.

After suffering one heavy blow after another, the Punishment Flame Griffin was powerless to resist the Freezing Power contained within Broken Flower, Fallen Butterfly, Shattered Ice.

The Freezing Power erupted inside the Punishment Flame Griffin’s body, instantly flash-freezing it.

Zhong Yi looked at Flower Venerable, who had just arrived before him, and said in an extremely serious tone,

"Aunt Ying, I don’t know if you have any other moves, but please, attack this heavily injured Lifebound Deceit Beast from the Peak of Ten Thousand Nations Level with everything you’ve got."

"A Peak of Ten Thousand Nations Level Deceit Beast is not so easy to kill, but we absolutely cannot give it another chance to rejoin the battle."

Flower Venerable was both surprised and deeply moved by Zhong Yi’s recent series of actions.

This young man, Zhong Yi, who had awakened his Soul Base less than three months ago, was already participating in a battle at the Peak of Ten Thousand Nations Level.

𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

And he had even achieved impressive results!

This was the first time Flower Venerable had witnessed the terrifying killing power displayed by Zhong Yi’s Healing Element Order Beast.

’Could this be the key to how Zhong Yi, as a Healing-type Celestial Destiny Seeker, is able to achieve a one hundred percent Secret Realm Exploration Level?’

’Is this how he obtains the Heart of the Secret Realm and Divine Origin Value during his explorations?’

Flower Venerable had already been planning to summon a new Guardian Beast to deliver the finishing blow.

If she hadn’t been worried about Zhong Yi’s safety when he suddenly appeared,

she would have acted long ago.

Without further ado, Flower Venerable immediately activated her Soul Base and summoned her other Guardian Beast.
