After using cheats, I became the strongest Beast Tamer

Dark mist surrounded him, and his white bones loomed eerily, while the nerves extending up from his neck excitedly raced to the blood-red pupil at the tip.

No one would doubt that this was an old demon that had killed many over the years.

Ming Junting's eyes twitched slightly.

Was this his Beast Taming?

How come the intelligence had never mentioned it before?

But if it weren't for Beast Taming, how could he have summoned it out of thin air?

It must be a method of the Beast Tamers to summon their beasts.

A Transcendence-level Beast Taming???

Ming Junting only wanted to throw the person in charge of gathering intelligence into the toilet and drown him.

Prior to this, no one had known he held such a trump card.

Such deep schemes this young man had!

Ming Junting glanced apprehensively at Chen Xing's back, playing everyone in the palm of his hand. Until now, almost no one had realized he had a Transcendence-peak Beast Taming.

And such a deep schemer had summoned this Transcendence-peak Beast Taming right in front of him.

This only meant it was no longer his trump card. He didn't mind revealing it at all; he must have an even deeper one.

But if a Transcendence-peak wasn't his deepest card, could it be...

Ming Junting's heartbeat suddenly quickened, as if he had uncovered a terrible secret.

But... but he was only eighteen years old?

The always cool Ming Junting felt an indescribable sense of absurdity at this moment.

An eighteen-year-old Ascension-level Beast Tamer?

Before today, if anyone told him that an eighteen-year-old could become an Ascension Beast Tamer, he would have thought them to be speaking nonsense.

"Sss—" The Skyscraping Serpent and the Pale Strangler clashed in close quarters, locked in fierce combat.

Even with significant injuries, the Pale Strangler still completely dominated the fight against the Skyscraping Serpent.

The serpent had no chance to devour its opponent.

Just then, the Suspended Island Sky Roc in the sky changed its direction, swooping towards the Pale Strangler below.

The enormous body of the Suspended Island Sky Roc, akin to a small mountain, with its many layered wings flapping, created a whirlwind of fierce winds.

The Pale Strangler split off some branches to defend itself, but they were shattered upon impact, and a large chunk of its crown was clawed away.

In an instant, the flames above its head dimmed considerably.

To the Pale Strangler, a newer generation Transcendence-peak, the old Demon Eagle was utterly overpowering.

In both combat skills and understanding of the laws, the Pale Strangler was no match.

Besides, the Suspended Island Sky Roc possessed a body forged through its former Ascension. Although its divine physical prowess waned with its fallen state, it was still constructed on the basis of a higher realm. Against such hard hits, how could the Pale Strangler withstand the collision?

After several exchanges, the already severe injuries of the Pale Strangler worsened significantly.

Its wounds, already difficult to recover from, now became extremely grave.

With a clang, it crashed heavily onto the ground.

A cloud of dust billowed.

The Skyscraping Serpent's eyes lit up. Now was the moment!

It circled around to the Pale Strangler's head and opened its jaw.

Slowly, it began to envelop a corner of the Pale Strangler's head.

Then it steadily engulfed downward.

Strangely enough, the Skyscraping Serpent's diameter was originally only as thick as the Pale Strangler's tree limb.

But as it continued to swallow, its body stretched to an exaggerated extent.

Like dough that was being pulled and stretched arbitrarily.

And despite being so unnaturally stretched, it didn't burst.

Chen Xing suspected it might have something to do with its Innate Skill.

In this world, Beast Taming had a wide variety of innate attributes—array of all sorts of weird talents are possible.

The Pale Strangler still tried to resist, but with a few more kicks from the Demon Eagle, its body was ruthlessly crushed.

"Thank you," Ming Junting let out a long breath and thanked Chen Xing.

"It's nothing," Chen Xing waved his hand.

His gaze was still fixed on the Pale Strangler.

The Tianbai Swallow Moon Python had actually devoured prey several hundred times larger than itself.

At this moment, the skin of the Tianbai Swallow Moon Python was as thin as cicada wings, almost transparent enough to see the pale flesh underneath.

Outlined against this backdrop, everything was exceedingly clear.

One might suspect that a breath of air could burst its flesh, as if a layer of white film had been draped over the pale body.

As time passed, the belly of the Tianbai Swallow Moon Python continued to compress inwards, shrinking, while the color of its body was gradually deepening, seemingly fixed in size.

Seeing this, Chen Xing's pupils shrank. If the surface area remained the same, but the skin thickness increased, would the Tianbai Swallow Moon Python's size surge after it had completely devoured its prey?

Ming Junting sighed with relief as he saw the Tianbai Swallow Moon Python finally devour its target.

It was finally accomplished.

This step was also an inevitable one, the preceding one was just the first step.

Ming Junting also understood that the reason he was able to proceed so smoothly with the initial step was the support from others behind the scenes.

Because at that time, someone was needed to pioneer the path of imitating the divine, combining it with domestic public opinion to see if it could be successfully navigated.

The results were remarkable; he navigated that path successfully.

Beast Taming broke through the bottleneck it faced before, and not only that, its Energy Level progressed by leaps and bounds, saving a great deal of time.

Having demonstrated that this path could be taken, the next steps were his to walk alone, and the assistance he would enjoy would not be as substantial.

The pushers would naturally not waste resources promoting him for nothing, as the representative interest groups behind these pushers would engage in a new round of power struggle for the division of media influence.

As long as they could master public opinion, there was a chance to cultivate a significant number of high-ranked Transcendents, even peak Transcendents, and perhaps even further opportunities.

Who could resist such a temptation?

With the advanced news media, the multitude of people under efficient productivity, combined with the imitation divine route—

These three in unison formed a formidable weapon for mass-producing masters!

The national power of Great Xia was on the brink of a new surge of robust development!

But the public is the public, private is private.

Ming Junting hoped that while Great Xia was flourishing, he could secure a higher position for himself on this giant ship.

No man is a saint; who doesn't have a bit of self-interest?

According to the analysis of high-minded individuals from the domestic think tanks, to take another step forward, one had to devour either a peak Transcendence Fire Attribute Beast Tamer or monster.

And ideally, they should master a kind of law.

As long as he could successfully devour the target and spread the news, then stage a momentum, his Beast Taming had the chance to advance further.

With the basis of public opinion created by the first wave of videos and the phase being currently early, the outcomes of the various power struggles would definitely not be settled yet; it was the vacuum period for public opinion now.

As long as he could quickly create a second wave of public attention, he might break through the threshold of Ascension. Stay tuned for updates on empire

Maybe he would even have the opportunity to step into Ascension!

Ming Junting was well aware that for all the many powers and departments apparently operating in Great Xia, they were all façades; in reality, to truly become a player in the game, one needed Ascension Level strength.

The times have changed. Without Ascension, one would never be able to sit at the table.

If he achieved Ascension, he could have the chance to become the foremost member of the Jin Ye Guard!

The Jin Ye Guard had ten red-clothed Commandants! All of them had the same apparent authority.

Ten people, that's too many.

How could a department possibly have ten voices?

One voice is enough!

Although there were no major overt conflicts between all the red-clothed Commandants, they were all struggling in secret!

Among themselves they all knew, whomever first achieved Ascension—

Would become the first true speaker of the Jin Ye Guard.

Now, that step was within reach.

A ripple of ambition shimmered in the depths of Ming Junting's eyes.

Moreover, the newly established Xin Huo by the emperor indeed held deeper expectations.

Unlike the ten red-clothed Commandants of the Jin Ye Guard, from the inception of Xin Huo, there was only one position meant for the true leader.

It was as if a message had been sent in advanced to everyone, only the real Ascendant could sit in that position.

The very establishment of Xin Huo was to strive for the cultivation of an Ascension Level being.

The emperor understood that with an increase in the number of Ascension Level beings, the voices within Great Xia might not remain unified in the future.

He was seeking an ally for himself in advance!

He heard the voice.
