Beast Taming Patrol Chapter 1539 - 429: Legend Rank! Dawn of Myth! (Double - , Finale Countdown: 22)

"It appears the Guardian Beast faction is truly gaining the advantage over us!"

The Guardian Beast faction is a far more resource-heavy path compared to the Martial faction.

Currently, within the West Profound Domain, the Guardian Beast faction submits to the leadership of the Martial faction. This arrangement ensures the Martial faction possesses sufficient cultivation resources to flourish and expand.

Should the Guardian Beast faction grow more powerful and suppress the Martial faction, the available resources for the latter will be drastically diminished.

Furthermore, given the rising prestige of the Guardian Beast faction, will the geniuses of the future still find the Martial faction attractive?

If they simply remain idle, the Martial faction is destined to slowly decline and eventually vanish.

This represents a life-and-death struggle of the Dao—a fundamental and irreconcilable clash between two different systems.

"Indeed! I am in agreement!" another powerful expert of the Martial Domain Realm shouted in support.

"However, the Time Master of the Southern Desolate Domain reaching the Ninth Realm poses a massive threat as well." Some Martial Domain Realm practitioners hesitated, "Even the ancestor woke himself to caution us that internal conflict at this time is unwise."

"Humph! Can the Time Master defeat a single Martial Domain? Could he possibly take on all Martial Domain Realm experts at once? This Guardian Beast cooperation method is the true existential threat to our Martial faction!"

"To quell external chaos, one must first stabilize the internal; by correcting this dangerous trend of the Guardian Beast faction, are we not stabilizing our foundation?"

"I believe we should wait and see. Having additional assistance when we eventually face the Time Master isn't a bad thing..."

"..."

Before long, the palace split into two opposing groups, with many Martial Domain Realm experts engaging in a heated debate.

"Enough!" The Palace Master, who had remained silent until now, suddenly gave a soft shout as his eyes flickered. "This is a matter of immense gravity. I fear we must wake the ancestor and seek his guidance before a decision is reached!"

The remaining Martial Domain Realm practitioners fell silent immediately.

Taking a deep breath, the Palace Master slowly produced a jade talisman.

This was the sole method to rouse the slumbering Martial Emperor.

"Unworthy disciples and descendants have come to disturb the ancestor once more," he stated in a low voice, preparing to use his yuan force to trigger the jade talisman.

But in the following instant, a thunderous roar suddenly shook the heavens and the earth!

It felt as though the entire world was shuddering in that precise moment.

This unexpected phenomenon caused the Palace Master to stop his movements abruptly.

He and the other Martial Domain practitioners scanned their surroundings with a mix of doubt and anxiety.

This disturbance felt somewhat like the emergence of a Heavenly Rank Secret Realm.

Could it be...

No! That wasn't right!

This world-shaking tremor was far more violent than the birth of any Heavenly Rank Secret Realm!

A moment later, the intense shaking stopped as suddenly as it had begun.

Just as the Palace Master and the other Martial Domain practitioners were about to move, the 999-meter jade statue behind them shattered without warning!

From the ruined sculpture, a jade coffin emerged, etched with countless mysterious and ancient sigils.

At that moment, the lid of the jade coffin shifted, opening a small gap.

Under the stunned gazes of the thirteen Martial Domain practitioners, a hand so emaciated it looked skeletal reached out from the opening and violently cast the lid aside!

A figure, smelling of decay yet radiating a terrifying power, slowly sat up from within the coffin.

A horrific aura surged toward the sky.

A vast Martial Domain instantly expanded in every direction.

Five thousand miles... seven thousand miles... nine thousand miles...

Ten thousand miles!!!

A Martial Domain spanning ten thousand miles blanketed the world, enveloping the Emperor Martial Palace and the Martial Emperor Peak beneath it.

A roar of laughter shook the heavens, echoing deep within everyone's souls.

"I, Ye Lingjun, have waited for this day!!!"

...

"King! A major event has occurred!"

An immortal suddenly materialized before the Time Master, cowering in a ball due to extreme terror.

"What is it?"

Within a shroud of golden mist, the Time Master slowly opened his eyes, which were filled with a god-like indifference.

"During this vital period of war preparation, you had better have something truly important to say, or I will use you as a sacrifice!"

The immortal shook even more violently with fear, yet he remembered why he had come.

He spoke in a trembling, desperate voice, "The Endless Sea... the creatures of the Endless Sea have revolted!"

"Hmm?!"

A piercing light suddenly flashed in the Time Master’s eyes.

The Endless Sea?

He had intimidated them only recently; how could the insects of the Endless Sea find the courage to rebel now?

How would they dare?!

"King..." The immortal bowed his head to the ground in terror, his voice shaking. "It is rumored that within the Endless Sea..."

"Fool! You cannot even speak clearly!" The Time Master impatiently extended a claw, instantly pressing it against the immortal's head.

Time accelerated in a flash, allowing the immortal to finish his report at an incredible speed.

"It is said that any creature in the Endless Sea can call upon the Netherwater Spirit simply by wishing for it in their hearts. These Netherwater Spirits possess the power to crush those of imperial rank. They do not appear to be exotic beasts, but rather some form of incarnated power. Even dispatching immortal rank beasts to surround them has proven useless..."

"Boom!"

In the next breath, the immortal was reduced to a mist of blood, obliterated by the claw of the furious Time Master.

"Netherwater Spirit, as persistent as a ghost!" Rage burned in the Time Master’s eyes.

What kind of technique had the enemy used?

He felt a sense of confusion as well.

A moment later, the Time Master gave a sharp command, "Come!"

Seven figures appeared around him instantly, their faces full of devotion. "King!"

These were seven esteemed Eighth Realm beings raised by the Time Master, the most loyal of his followers.

"Follow me to see exactly what this Netherwater Spirit is!" Murderous intent boiled in the Time Master’s heart.

To cause trouble at a time like this—this time, no matter what, the Netherwater Spirit would be wiped out!

He slowly stood, preparing to fly toward the Endless Sea, when his body suddenly stiffened.

"Boom!"

A massive tremor suddenly shook the world.

"Is it a Heavenly Rank Secret Realm?!" one of the immortals cried out, his eyes lighting up with joy.

"No, it is not a Heavenly Rank Secret Realm!" the Time Master spoke slowly, his voice laced with a mixture of madness and delight.

As the world trembled, he felt a specific shackle within his soul begin to dissolve.

The very shackle that prevented him from advancing beyond the immortal level!

That shackle, destined to break one day—had the time come so early?!

At this moment, the Time Master felt the speed of his rule's ascension suddenly skyrocket.

Though he had only reached the Ninth Realm recently, he felt the path to another breakthrough opening before him.

"Did you all feel it too?" He looked slowly at the seven immortals surrounding him.

"King! This is..." one of the immortals said, trembling with excitement.

It felt as though the speed of its own rule's growth had never been this rapid!

"Halt the war preparations," the Time Master commanded slowly. "I must break through!"

Forget the Netherwater Spirit.

Forget the grudge between humans and exotic beasts.

Everything was insignificant compared to the new realm that was now calling to him!

His form vanished quickly, leaving behind a final warning.

"I have no use for the worthless."

"If you have not reached the Ninth Realm by the time I finish my breakthrough..."

"Then you shall die!"

"Yes!" The seven Eighth Realm immortals, fueled by a burning fervor, vanished from the spot.
