Celestial Beast Taming

Flower Venerable knew full well that if she didn’t help, Tao En would be left to face this Deceit Knight alone.

It was true that she could stay out of it.

But whether it was because Tao En was willing to concoct Potions for her for free, or because she had already joined Zhong Yi’s forces...

...or even because of the debt she owed Zhong Yi, Flower Venerable simply couldn’t stay out of it.

Ever since becoming a Guardian Beast Master, Flower Venerable had long been prepared to die in battle.

Before now, aside from her younger sister, there had never been anyone for whom Flower Venerable was willing to risk her life.

But now, faced with the debt she owed Zhong Yi, the passionate and principled Flower Venerable was willing to repay it with her own safety and life.

This Deceit Element Bizarre, merged with its Deceit Beast, was clearly wary of Flower Venerable’s Order Beast, Blood Ripple Tumi.

He was more wary of Blood Ripple Tumi than of the Six-finger Dharma Aspect manifesting behind Tao En.

By the time they reached the Above Eternity Level, a Celestial Destiny Seeker would have experienced countless battles.

Their abilities had generally been figured out by opponents of the same level.

This Deceit Knight knew full well that the Rule controlled by Flower Venerable’s Blood Ripple Tumi was the Withering Rule.

Its Rule Authority could sacrifice its own longevity and Life Force to directly diminish that of its target.

The Order Beast Blood Ripple Tumi’s longevity and Life Force could slowly be restored.

But the longevity he lost to the Order Beast Blood Ripple Tumi could not be.

Actually, that wasn’t entirely accurate. Longevity could be restored by purchasing Longevity Pills from the Divine Origin Store.

But a single Longevity Pill could only restore ten months of life.

Spending 120 Divine Origin Value on 12 Longevity Pills would grant ten years of longevity.

But if Flower Venerable were to recklessly unleash her Order Beast Blood Ripple Tumi, she could, at the very least, take more than two hundred years of his longevity.

Spending nearly 3,000 Divine Origin Value to counteract that was simply not worth it.

Three thousand Divine Origin Value was basically his entire net worth.

However, beneath his heavy armor, the Deceit Knight’s lips curved into a strange smile.

"For two people not even at the Peak of Ten Thousand Nations Level to threaten me... your courage is truly commendable."

"Since neither of you wants to live, I won’t hold back!"

"I would have thought that the Xin Xia Federation, as one of the hegemonic federations of the Dragon’s Roost Continent, would know a little more about our Mass Divine Sect."

"Did you really not know that Deceit Knights never act alone? I have my own Prince of Deceit!"

As he finished speaking, a waterfall of exceptionally violent flames erupted beside the Deceit Knight.

First, a heavy, utterly ferocious bird cry rang out.

Immediately following this, a colossal creature over fifteen meters long with a wingspan of nearly fifty meters stepped out from the waterfall of flames.

A creature with the head of an eagle and the body of a lion, with a pair of enormous wings on its back, soared high above the Centaur-type Deceit Knight.

With each flap of its wings, it scattered thousands of flames.

Even the smallest cluster of these flames would immediately detonate upon leaving its body.

The Power of Rules emanating from the giant Griffin could faintly interact with the Power of Rules from the Centaur-type Deceit Knight.

Both being Fire Attribute Rules, their auras could stack upon each other perfectly.

Their auras even showed faint signs of merging into one.

A pressure just as tyrannical as the Deceit Knight’s swept through the entire Zhongyi Mansion.

It caused the Creatures who had already collapsed under the Deceit Knight’s pressure to instantly pass out.

Thanks to the Energy released by the Soul-Controlling Flower, Zhong Yi was unaffected.

Expressions of despair appeared on the faces of both Flower Venerable and Tao En.

’Against a single Bizarre at the Peak of Ten Thousand Nations Level, even if we can’t win, we could at least deter it with our trump cards.’

’But facing a coordinated assault from two Bizarres at the Peak of Ten Thousand Nations Level, with their perfect coordination...’

’...our threats are nothing but a joke!’

Star Night, the one person in Starlight City who could contend with these two Peak of Ten Thousand Nations Level Bizarres, had only just left the city.

It was unlikely he could return anytime soon.

Before making their move, the Deceit Knight and Prince of Deceit from the Mass Divine Sect’s White Mist Divine Hall must have sealed off Zhongyi Mansion.

No matter how great the commotion inside, no one on the outside would be able to notice.

At that moment, inside his room, Zhong Yi decisively reached into his collar and felt for the four Instant Jades hanging from his neck.

Zhong Yi pushed aside Lin Zhuo’s watermelon-shaped Instant Jade and Wen Tao’s, which looked like a chubby little dragon pushing a watermelon cart.

He tightly gripped the two Jade Tokens that were engraved with text.

One Jade Token was engraved with "Wishing You Fortune," and the other with "So What? What Then?"

Both of these Instant Jades looked a bit absurd, but they were his only chance against the two Peak of Ten Thousand Nations Level Bizarres.

Zhong Yi poured his soul into the two Instant Jades, then, with all his might, hurled them violently out the window.

In that very instant, the heavens and the earth transformed!

It was high noon, with the sun hanging directly overhead.

It was only early autumn, and the sun at this time of year was even more scorching than at the height of summer.

But the moment the Jade Token engraved with "Wishing You Fortune" shattered, the effect wasn’t confined to the sealed space above Zhongyi Mansion.

In an instant, the sky over the entire Starlight City turned to night.

Tens of thousands of stars twinkled in the night sky, shining with a dazzling brilliance.

It wasn’t just Starlight City; even some of the surrounding Heroic Cities were affected.
