Beast Taming Patrol Chapter 1554: 433: Mythic Stage! Martial God Realm!
Previously on Beast Taming Patrol...
No, maybe right now, it shouldn't be referred to as a mere creature anymore.
Describing it as godly feels far more appropriate.
Having ascended to an entirely fresh tier, the Time Master is free from all former limitations of power.
The Divine Rules shape its entirely renewed form.
Wherever these rules hold sway, its reach knows no limits.
Right now, spatial measurements fail to capture it, as if it's stepped beyond time itself, becoming something ineffable and utterly fearsome.
Shattering the last chains of the ordinary world, it has been reborn.
If the gap between the Immortal stage and everything beneath it is like the divide between sky and soil.
Then the Time Master, now past the Mythical stage, looking down on the Immortal...
“Ants.”
The Time Master uttered the word gradually, its very tone laced with an enigmatic essence of the divine rules.
A sense washed over it that its old ninth realm version could be wiped out in an instant with just a flicker of its present might.
So this is the Mythical stage?
Fervor flickered in its gaze.
All those careful arrangements hadn't gone to waste.
By commanding the Rule of Time, it gained a fearsome skill that even Qiuqiu didn't possess.
Namely, the power to have endless copies of itself cultivate and evolve at once across countless timelines.
Whenever required, those versions could converge, blending the timelines together and propelling the core self to unparalleled peaks.
After surpassing the ninth realm and discovering a level higher than Immortal, the Time Master had set aside part of its strength.
This segment claimed the full timeline belonging to the Time Master, locked in endless, nonstop training.
This served as the Time Master's hidden ace, saved for the instant when Immortal's barriers fell and a vital leap was demanded.
These barriers crumbled quicker than anticipated, yet the Time Master's foresight let it grasp this massive chance.
As the barriers shattered, the Rule Power across heaven and earth grew ever mightier, speeding up the Immortal stage's advancement, and the Time Master managed another breakthrough using its fresh ninth realm strength.
Armed with a realm this mighty, what could possibly stand in its way?
“King!”
Multiple voices rang out together; they came from the seven top Immortals in the Southern Desolate Domain.
Right then, their looks toward the Time Master brimmed with endless wonder and respect.
Could this be the realm surpassing Immortal?
Before the Time Master, they sensed themselves as mere beginners staring up at an Immortal.
No, the disparity felt even greater!
“All at the ninth realm.” The Time Master cast a steady eye over the seven Immortals, “Just about adequate.”
Thanks to the shifts in heaven and earth plus the desperate push from the Time Master, all seven Immortals had advanced from eighth to ninth realm in under a month.
The Time Master had picked them through harsh trials as the finest prospects for growth.
Upon hearing that, the seven ninth realm figures let out a unified breath of relief.
Without reaching the ninth realm, they dreaded being deemed useless and erased by the King.
Confronted by such grim fates, they shuddered briefly, their reverence for the Time Master deepening further.
“With my breakthrough complete, the fight begins now.”
The Time Master turned its gaze leisurely toward the West Profound Domain, where a cross-legged figure in the emptiness hovered just at the brink of its vision.
Martial Emperor, teetering on the edge of his own breakthrough?
Battle lust sparked in its eyes.
Originally set on blocking the foe's advance over the Martial Domain, the Time Master's outlook shifted quietly after its own success.
What risk comes from allowing the Martial Emperor to ascend?
Fresh from its breakthrough, it craved a proper opponent to unleash its full might.
And as if catching the Time Master's stare from afar, the Martial Emperor sensed it too.
His sturdy frame, now whole with restored flesh, trembled lightly.
In the instant that followed, his piercing eyes snapped open, exploding with intent to tear the heavens in combat.
Without a word, the gauntlet had been thrown.
“Let’s go.” The Time Master let out a booming laugh, “Come with me to the West Profound Domain!”
It planned to clash with the Martial Emperor right after his breakthrough, there in the West Profound Domain!
“But… King!” One Immortal murmured hesitantly, “The uprising in the Endless Sea hasn't been quelled yet…”
At those words, the Time Master creased its brow faintly.
It swung its attention to the Endless Sea's direction, and in a flash, the whole sea lay exposed under its watch.
There it spotted the Pure Water Elemental Spirit that its followers had warned about before the breakthrough.
The foe lingered only at the Immortal fifth realm, no more than an insect to the Time Master now.
Still, their ranks weren't small, and their nature proved quite unique.
Through its current strength, the Time Master saw their true core at once.
Just a sliver of awareness carried by faith's power?
To purge this odd energy completely would demand a bit of effort and time.
“Head to the West Profound Domain first.” The Time Master resolved swiftly.
Back when it was ninth realm, the Endless Sea had been key as a fallback base against the humans.
But now in the Mythical stage, that sea held little value anymore.
By contrast, facing off against the Martial Emperor pulled stronger.
Come to think of it… That odd watched feeling had returned during the breakthrough.
The notion made the Time Master's eyes narrow a touch.
Over the Pure Water Elemental Spirits in the Endless Sea, it sensed that unseen presence posed the real danger.
Once the Martial Emperor duel ended, it would hunt down that watcher.
“As the King commands!”
The seven Immortals cried out as one and disappeared from the spot, wrapping up their last setups for the assault on the West Profound Domain.
