Beast Taming Patrol Chapter 1557 - 434: One Battle Shakes the Divine Martial!
Previously on Beast Taming Patrol...
The Abyssal Spear of the Extreme Martial Emperor quivered faintly in his grasp, carrying a hint of thrill.
From the edge of the spear's razor-sharp blade, a single droplet of golden blood trickled down to the soil below.
That lone drop triggered the emergence of the vast river of time across the ground, where laws of the time system wove together in complex patterns.
Once this fierce clash concludes, the spot where the blood landed could evolve into a unique domain governed by rare rules.
Meanwhile, a bloody gash formed on the fearsome talon of the Time Master.
With time reversing its flow, the wound faded away swiftly, as though it had never existed at all.
Still, the chill in its gaze sharpened even further.
What a formidable Martial Emperor.
A fresh pinnacle in the martial path, truly no pushover.
As the Time Master's mind turned, a rhythmic pounding like a heartbeat resounded through the emptiness.
The beat came heavy and muffled, hammering at the very spirit.
With every pulse, faint strands of time spread silently over the whole battlefield, while a third eye on the Time Master's brow mirrored a tome floating in the void, its pages seemingly infinite.
Every leaf of that volume revealed a distinct vision.
These visions were crafted purely from the might of the time system, each one capturing a fragment of what might come.
Across those future glimpses, the Time Master and Martial Emperor both featured prominently.
In one possible path, the Time Master struck down the Martial Emperor, unleashing the southern wild beasts to ravage the West Profound Domain.
In yet another, the Martial Emperor felled the Time Master, once more holding back the southern wild beasts.
One vision showed their mutual destruction, granting a short-lived calm to the Divine Martial World.
And another depicted both left gravely wounded, setting the stage for the upcoming slaughter.
The tome turned haphazardly, flashing random scenes in no particular sequence, mirroring the chaos of destiny.
Then, the Time Master extended its talon, gradually forcing it onto the volume in the air.
A burst of time system energy erupted without warning, surging toward the Martial Emperor with irresistible force and rippling across the entire Divine Martial World.
It felt as if the instant the Time Master's talon touched the tome, the visions within froze in place, turning the foreseen outcome into unchangeable fate.
The hidden art of Time Pavilion, "Time Scripture"—Destiny Decree Manual!
"Impressive technique!"
The Martial Emperor, grasping the full picture at once, couldn't hold back his praise. "Back in the day, I took down an immortal tied to the time system too. The time system really earns its fame as something scarce and enigmatic, packed with potent methods."
"But that's not sufficient!"
His voice rang with bold defiance as vast martial energy stormed the skies, clashing hard against the time system laws—like a relentless mill grinding away, hurling shards of rules everywhere.
In the midst of raging tempests, the Martial Emperor steadily pulled out the Soul Suppressing Sword strapped to his back.
Beneath the somber dark grip hid a bottomless void of shadow.
With cries and moans from myriad spirits echoing, the Soul Suppressing Sword emerged from its sheath after a thousand years.
A pulse that stirred the soul radiated from the pitch-black blade.
In the following instant, the Martial Emperor swung the sword, cleaving straight at the Time Master!
The blow looked plain and straightforward, but it fused endless styles of swordplay, reaching peaks of subtlety and diversity.
Wherever the blade passed, illusions sprang to life.
A downpour of crimson rain, heaps of bleached skeletons!
These dark omens appeared not as evil, but as emblems of sovereign power.
This blade embodied imperial splendor, striking against uprising!
This blade followed the emperor's way, cutting down the unsubmissive!
As it flew forth, the Martial Emperor's Sword Intent rent the firmament, while murderous aura painted the heavens red!
You savage creatures ought to bow to mankind!
Martial Arts, shattering laws through sheer strength!
"This strike will finish you!"
With the Martial Emperor's deep roar, the shadowy sword gleam had already ripped through all barriers, hurtling toward the tome and the talon in the void!
Submit?
Sensing the Martial Emperor's resolve, an uncanny frost filled the Time Master's eyes.
Show me if you can back it up!
Its talon, easing down, abruptly sped up to meet the tome, and simultaneously, time system laws threaded through the cosmos, creating a hidden barrier to halt the savage sword gleam.
Even before the tome and sword light could meet, the clash of martial force and laws ignited.
In the end, amid a thunderous blast, the emptiness cracked apart bit by bit from the impact of man and beast.
The Time Master's talon landed on the tome, yet right then, the tome crumbled under the brutal sword light, dissolving into dust.
The Time Pavilion's forbidden skill failed to activate.
"Hmph!"
Fury blazed stronger in the Time Master's gaze, and glowing Time God Patterns swiftly formed behind its skull, spinning like a sacred ring, restoring time system laws and building a fearsome glow inside.
In that split second, a shiver of dread gripped the Martial Emperor's core.
He returned the Soul Suppressing Sword to its sheath and bellowed suddenly, thrusting the Extreme Martial Emperor’s Abyssal Spear to etch a deep round silhouette into the void.
Inside that round silhouette surged martial energy, manifesting the Martial Emperor's profound grasp of the martial way, radiating an unbreakable and infinite presence.
At the same time, the Martial Armor encasing him flared with dazzling splendor, akin to an unyielding peak, unleashing the overpowering strength that tames sky and land.
The cultivated fate of humankind within it shifted into a dragon's shape, coiling around to shield the Martial Emperor, as though he drew the backing and safeguard of all people in that moment.
The very next beat after the Martial Emperor's move, a dreadful beam finished charging in the sacred ring at the Time Master's rear, crashing down with crushing power and a soul-chilling vibe!
That holy ray bore a binding pull, making escape impossible, and struck the Martial Emperor in a flash.
