Beast Taming Patrol Chapter 1470 - 415: Phoenix of Light

The five little companions naturally raised no objections; instead, their eyes shimmered with a shared sense of anticipation upon hearing his proposal.

Tata and Yingying were particularly eager, having never participated in the team competition before. Youyou felt a similar drive, remembering how she could only contribute the Soldier Spirit Form during the last event and was unable to provide much assistance.

"However, now that I think about it..." Lin Su murmured, scratching his chin as he spoke through Telepathy, "Since we are currently guests in the Self Transformation Valley, wouldn't it be more practical to hold our team competition back on Blue Star?"

The five little ones blinked in realization before nodding their agreement once more.

Indeed, on Blue Star, they wouldn't need to worry about prying eyes and could easily locate an open space large enough for their battle.

"It is settled, then! On the night before we enter the Lingxia Secret Realm, the third team competition will take place on Blue Star!" Lin Su’s own face mirrored their excitement.

As a Beast Tamer, he wasn't entirely certain of the current power levels of his five companions.

This would be the perfect chance to gauge their growth.

...

Time flowed swiftly, and the next day arrived.

The disciples of the Self Transformation Valley had shown such overwhelming enthusiasm toward Lin Su the previous day that he felt compelled to return the favor with sincerity.

To this end, he had arranged a meeting with Miao Yunge yesterday. Today, he would provide the first session of public guidance regarding the Guardian Beast Co-operation technique to the valley's disciples, addressing any obstacles they faced.

Because the leadership of the Self Transformation Valley and the other two major Sects had begun practicing the Guardian Beast Co-operation technique immediately upon their return, Lin Su had only arrived after spending a full month at the other two Sects.

Consequently, the disciples of the Self Transformation Valley had accumulated many questions and uncertainties regarding the technique.

Within a pleasant and harmonious environment, Lin Su meticulously resolved every doubt they raised. The guidance session only concluded once the final question had been thoroughly answered.

Following the session, Lin Su led his five companions toward a specific region within the Self Transformation Valley that was bathed in a magnificent golden radiance.

This was the Chongming Light Realm, a space forged by the personal rules of the Feather Venerate himself within the valley.

As they drew near the Chongming Light Realm, the brilliant glow washed over Lin Su and the five little ones.

The light was not blinding; rather, it felt as though it could pierce through all things, carrying the weight of incredibly profound light-type rules.

"Caw...(｡ϟ｡)" (It's a bit uncomfortable...)

Gui Gui shifted uneasily, feeling the pressure of the intense light-type energy. Shadow Shadow also writhed uncomfortably, feeling the same repulsion.

While Youyou also possessed dark-type attributes, her all-elemental nature meant she was not strictly countered by any single element, allowing her to remain unaffected.

"You two should head back to the living quarters," Lin Su said, patting Gui Gui and Shadow Shadow. "We can manage things here."

"Meow! (｡òωó｡)" (I will stay with Third Sister!)

Qiuqiu wagged its tail firmly. With the team competition approaching, Third Sister needed to grow stronger, and Qiuqiu felt it was necessary to keep a watchful eye on her progress.

"Tap! ʕ◉ᴥ◉ʔ" (And me as well!)

Tata, ever the dedicated rapper, announced that its presence was required everywhere.

Seeing their determination, Gui Gui and Shadow Shadow did not argue further.

"Caw! (｡ϟ｡)" (Good luck, Youyou!)

"Yo! ╚(˃o˂)╝" (Go for it, Third Sister!)

After cheering for Youyou, the two little ones quickly vanished from sight.

"Let’s move, we are going inside." Once the two had departed, Lin Su led the remaining three into the depths of the Chongming Light Realm.

"Lin Su, over here."

A steady voice vibrated through the world, resonating from within the heart of the Chongming Light Realm. The light surrounding Lin Su and his companions solidified, forming a staircase that pointed the way forward.

Moments later, the group arrived at the center of the realm.

Before them stood a colossal bird, its feathers shimmering with golden light and its eyes possessing double pupils. Its massive form was large enough to blot out the firmament.

The Great Bird lowered its head, observing Lin Su and the three companions. A faint trace of amusement flickered within its majestic double pupils. "Welcome to my Chongming Light Realm."

"Greetings, Feather Venerate," Lin Su said, bowing quickly as the three little ones showed their respect.

"I was informed yesterday that your companion beast, Youyou, requires a light-elemental environment to refine its Secret Technique," Feather Venerate spoke with a slow, measured tone. "In our Self Transformation Valley, the Lingxia Secret Realm is undoubtedly our greatest treasure."

"However, if we speak only of the path of light, my Chongming Light Realm is superior even to the Lingxia Secret Realm." A touch of pride entered the Feather Venerate's voice. "I have resided here for a millennium, gathering Endless Light over the long ages."

"For Youyou’s needs, this place is more than enough to achieve perfection."

"Woo! (❁´◡`❁)" (Yes!)

Youyou nodded eagerly. Upon entering the Chongming Light Realm, she had immediately sensed the potent light-type forces. This intensity of power and the density of the light-elemental rules were exactly what she needed to finish the visualization of the fourteenth Phoenix.

"Then let us begin," the Feather Venerate said, his voice tinged with curiosity.

Following the instructions, Youyou shut her eyes and began to trace the form of a new Phoenix within her mind. Soon, light-type rules started to swirl around her, marking the transition to the second stage of visualization: the infusion of light-elemental rules into the Phoenix.

Under the Feather Venerate’s guidance, the surrounding light began to surge, flowing into Youyou’s body like a thousand rivers rushing toward the sea.

"My thanks, Feather Venerate." Seeing Youyou enter a deep state of cultivation, Lin Su expressed his gratitude once more.

"It is a trivial matter," the Feather Venerate chuckled. "I witnessed how you guided my Sect's disciples in the Guardian Beast Co-operation technique. Compared to that, this is nothing."

His voice turned nostalgic. "It is often said that the Spirit Master Emperor’s discovery of how to break through the ninth level of the Beast Taming Space saved the Beast Tamer lineage. However, Lin Su, one could say you have brought a new era of brilliance to that same lineage."

"Your contribution is immense."

"I would not dare compare myself to a predecessor like the Spirit Master Emperor," Lin Su answered with humility.

"Haha." The Feather Venerate laughed softly and fell silent.

As time ticked away, Youyou’s aura began to climb steadily. The Feather Venerate was uncompromising in his support, directing the power of the entire Chongming Light Realm to surge in rhythmic waves.

With such a vast reservoir of light-type energy at her disposal, the once-daunting task of visualizing the fourteenth Phoenix became almost effortless for Youyou.

Before long, the ethereal cries of Phoenixes began to echo around her. There were fourteen in total.

Youyou slowly opened her eyes, which now flashed with fourteen distinct colors. The completed visualizations of the fourteen Phoenixes manifested from the void, beginning a majestic dance in the sky.

A moment later, following a quiet command from Youyou, the fourteen Phoenixes seemed to find their way home, swarming back into her body.

As they merged with her, a blinding radiance exploded from Youyou. Simultaneously, a brand-new power began to take shape within her.

That power was... the Martial Arts element!
