Beast Taming Patrol Chapter 1553 - 433: Mythic Tier! Martial God Realm!
Previously on Beast Taming Patrol...
"Has your sect's Oracle foreseen that the Time Master in the Southern Wild Domain is on the verge of advancing to the Mythical Tier?"
Within the Sect Master Hall of the Immortal Phoenix Sect, Zhou Chaotian's words held a touch of astonishment.
Standing next to him stood Yu Yao, Liu Cangming, and Ji Wupo.
Over the last month, these three had just managed to quell the unrest inside the sect from their recent battle loss and had only just relaxed a bit, yet this heavy revelation made their expressions grow grave all over again.
"Indeed." Ji Qinghuan, who had called this urgent meeting of the four, replied with a grave voice.
"This..." Zhou Chaotian rubbed his head, glanced at the others, and couldn't resist inquiring, "How does the Mythical Tier stack up against the Immortal and Martial Domain?"
"It represents total dominance and overwhelming power."
Lin Su answered gravely from nearby, while Qiuqiu perched on his head still displayed traces of dread.
Right when the Time Prophecy activated on its own, Lin Su felt something off and quickly pulled it back into the Beast Taming Space, then had his other pet beasts put him under hypnosis immediately.
Events that followed confirmed how wise that quick action had been.
Even a Time Master at the Ninth Realm could track down Qiuqiu's real identity via the clues from the Time Prophecy, and one nearing the Mythical Tier breakthrough would prove far more alarming, easily doing the same.
Had it been able to cross over to Blue Star in this separate world, that one attack alone could have ended Qiuqiu right then.
The Mythical Tier holds such immense strength.
Though the Time Master hadn't fully ascended yet, it delivered an immense pressure on Lin Su and Qiuqiu through just a vision spanning time and distance.
It seemed like the whole universe fueled its might, and the endless, vast laws etched a lasting impact in Lin Su and Qiuqiu's minds even to this day.
That powerful?
After listening to Lin Su's account, the group shared looks, their serious faces deepening further.
Should it truly possess the might Lin Su described, even those at the Immortal and Martial Domain level could struggle to affect it much.
Should the Time Master plan to assault the Eastern Extreme Domain...
No, no matter how they viewed it, such an invasion was bound to occur.
"So, did the Oracle specify the exact timing for the Time Master's breakthrough?" Yu Yao inquired gently.
At those words, Lin Su and Qiuqiu's faces both tightened in concern.
"Its advancement will occur in the coming days." Qiuqiu replied with evident strain.
So soon.
The Time Master's impending rise had taken them completely by surprise.
Without Qiuqiu's accidental activation of the Time Prophecy, they might have remained unaware even after it succeeded.
"The reason I've gathered you all here is to share this critical update." Ji Qinghuan stated steadily. "We may not know our options yet, but we absolutely cannot just await our doom passively."
"It's wise to ready ourselves even a single day sooner."
"Appreciate it." Liu Cangming responded evenly, though a shadow of worry now lingered in his gaze.
Without the Immortal Phoenix Sect's alert, the Time Master's arrival might have left them unprepared.
Following a short discussion, the four sect leaders departed in haste.
Alone in the Sect Master Hall now, Lin Su's face took on a peculiar cast.
"Master, shouldn't we mention the Martial Emperor to them?"
"No point." Ji Qinghuan denied with a shake of her head. "We've only just calmed the martial path faction, so revealing the Martial Emperor's survival now could stir up trouble."
"Besides, we can't predict the Time Master's following moves," she hesitated briefly, "and whether the Martial Emperor can break through stays unknown."
"Thus, regardless of the Martial Emperor's status, we have to gear up for war with full commitment."
Lin Su nodded in understanding, his expression clearing.
"The Immortal Phoenix Sect needs to mobilize every resource for the looming fight," Ji Qinghuan let out a soft sigh. "Fail to survive this trial, and the ancient calamity from millennia past could return."
Post-sect conflict, they had claimed multiple Heavenly Rank Secret Realms, and fresh legendary Beast Tamers emerged steadily. This ought to mark the sect's peak prosperity, yet confronting this crisis left her momentarily at a loss.
"Master, no need to fret excessively." Lin Su pressed his lips together. "A solution will come."
Right now, what they required above all was additional time.
And thanks to his power to traverse realms, time wasn't an issue for him.
In the direst scenario, if all else failed, he could reveal his gift and evacuate the Immortal Phoenix Sect, Lin Family, and his nearest allies to Blue Star.
Ji Qinghuan figured her student was merely trying to ease her mind and managed a weak smile.
"Yes, a way forward exists."
...
Southern Wild Domain.
Should anyone gaze down from the highest heavens upon this land, astonishment would strike at the horrifying changes enveloping the full Southern Wild Domain.
The Time Master's colossal presence now blanketed the entire Southern Wild Domain, wrapped in a vast golden mist.
Against its immense frame, even Immortal Tier spans of thousands of meters appeared as insignificant specks.
Yet to the inhabitants of the Southern Wild Domain, the sight differed entirely.
In that instant, all quaked beneath the overwhelming aura descending from above.
An innate terror rooted in their blood drove them to bow instinctively toward one spot, like devoted worshippers.
Wherever they stood across the Southern Wild Domain, that dazzling golden entity filled their view completely.
The entity had ascended to the height of its corporeal state, experiencing a supreme evolution and elevation, as its existence leaped to yet another profound level.
This spectacle had endured for quite some while.
Then, at a pivotal instant, the figure beheld by the Southern Wild Domain's people gradually unveiled its brilliant golden trio of eyes.
