After using cheats, I became the strongest Beast Tamer

Chen Xing couldn't help but smile, "Good."

Having dealt with the enemy, Dong Fang now relaxed and said to Chen Xing, "I was wondering why suddenly a peak-level Transcendent appeared to help me. I thought it was someone's hidden ace. I never expected it to be you."

Chen Xing was somewhat puzzled, "Brother Dong, were just the two of you taking action this time? If there could be a few more peak-level Transcendents, wouldn't it be more secure?"

"We'd need them first," Dong Fang said with a laugh.

Then Dong Fang continued, "Do you think peak-level Transcendents who have mastered laws grow on trees? Besides, many of them hold important positions. Dark Fire from Fentian Giant City also has quite a few spies in Great Xia, all keeping a close watch. If the known peak-level Transcendents were to leave, it would definitely alert Fentian Giant City.

Only identities like mine and General Gu's are mobile."

Moreover, Dong Fang had unspoken words: those peak-level Transcendents who mastered laws could almost be said to have one foot in the Divine Realm.

Divinity and organ divinization don't actually require high talent, the real challenge lies in the rarity of resources. However, as long as the major powers are willing to invest, these resources can still possibly be obtained.

Similarly, to break through the 200 Energy Level upper limit of Beast Taming and reach a higher realm is merely a matter of resources. As long as one is fortunate enough, there will always be a chance to obtain them, although the probability is unpredictable.

But comprehending laws is completely different from the aforementioned; it's a problem of the century that someone either gets it or doesn't.

Like solving complex mathematical problems, at a certain level, if you don't understand, then you truly don't understand—there is no gray area.

That's why those who have comprehended laws are respectfully referred to as "Ascension Reserves."

Comprehension of laws relies heavily on personal intuition, yet intuition is an elusive concept. Before successfully comprehending laws, it's impossible to accurately measure a person's intuition; only a few precious treasures can assist a Beast Tamer in understanding laws.

However, these treasures are extremely precious and can only play an assisting role, similar to study materials.

Therefore, those peak-level Transcendents capable of comprehending laws are incredibly precious; they can be seen as having already grasped the most mysterious elements of Ascension in advance.

For this reason, even to ambush Chi Xing, Great Xia would not easily reveal all its trump cards.

For a power of this scale, unless pushed to the brink, there is no need to reveal one's hand like this.

Once caught in a sweeping blow, the entire Great Xia would face a talent gap crisis.

Before this event, Dong Fang didn't know that the City Lord of Stone City was Gu Yuzhi, nor did Gu Yuzhi know where he was.

This time, his visit was also because Gu Yuzhi had set up an ambush plan for the higher-ups. Dong Fang received the notification and rushed over overnight.

"Right!" Dong Fang smacked his forehead and looked behind him, "Old Gu is still back there."

At this moment, Gu Yuzhi, still in the rear: ...

"I'm going to help Old Gu now. You rest here. There won't be any others coming out, will there?" said Dong Fang hesitantly, pointing at the two Beast Tamings being devoured in the Demon Eagle's belly.

These were two peak-level Transcendents.

Although swallowed into the stomach, the belly of the Demon Eagle was just a row of ribs... From his angle, he could even see from the front to the back.

The Demon Eagle, upon hearing this human questioning itself, was immediately displeased, "Cack, cack, cack, little brat, are you questioning the great Demon Eagle Lord?"

"Don't worry, Brother Dong. You go support General Gu first. The Demon Eagle is still restraining them and can't make a move just now," Chen Xing reassured.

"Alright." Dong Fang was not one to dawdle, and he was willing to trust Chen Xing. Since Brother Chen said it was fine, then there would be no problem.

He immediately rode his Beast Taming back to support Gu Yuzhi.

"Is the evolved form of the Snow Bamboo Swordsman the Snow Bamboo Spirit Venerable?" Chen Xing looked at the Snow Bamboo Spirit Venerable under Dong Fang, still remembering that Dong Fang's Beast Taming used to be just a Snow Bamboo Swordsman.

It looked more like a white bamboo caterpillar.

But now, it had shed its animal shape, looking more like a plant-type Beast Taming.

After Dong Fang was far away, Chen Xing said to the Demon Eagle, "Don't devour this Flame-Patterned Giant Dragon."

"Eh?"

The Demon Eagle's eyes on its neck widened, not expecting such a command from its master.

The Flame-Patterned Giant Dragon was full of vigor, clearly having achieved Fleshly Transcendence—highly nourishing!

If allowed to devour and absorb it, it could recover from many injuries.

Chen Xing said, "I have other Healing methods for your injuries, direct devouring like this would be too wasteful."

The Demon Eagle was skeptical, well aware of the severity of its own injuries, which were not so easily mended.

Even the Pure Ghost Flower hadn't been able to completely cure them, only managing to restore the majority.

However, the most important trait of the Demon Eagle was its adaptability; even though it knew it might just be its master drawing a pie in the sky.

It couldn't wait to embrace the large pancake and began to gnaw on it voraciously, displaying an expression indicative of a delicacy amongst humans.

"This bull... hasn't died yet," Chen Xing noticed. Although the One-legged Heavenly Thunder Bull was severely injured, with its chest heaving slightly, it had not yet succumbed to death.

This bull's appearance reminded Chen Xing of a mythical creature from ancient legends.

Kui, the one-legged ox.

Maybe this bull's evolutionary path could be similar.

"Seeing how much it's suffering, let's grant it a quick death, but try not to damage its hide," Chen Xing said.

After all, being the beast of an enemy, and having killed its Beast Tamer, even if it wanted to submit, it was impossible for Chen Xing to tame it.

For Beast Taming, sometimes the relationship between a Beast Tamer and their creature is even closer than that of kin.

In mythology, the hide of the Kui was used by the Yellow Emperor to make a large drum.

Whether the hide of this One-legged Heavenly Thunder Bull held such mystical properties was unclear, but it was worth a try.

Not to damage the hide but still kill it?

The Demon Eagle thought this was a bit of a technical challenge.

But, challenging high-difficulty actions was what it enjoyed most.

It sent the dark fog through the nose and ears of the One-legged Heavenly Thunder Bull.

Then, it slowly corroded the creature's internal organs through the holes.

It was as if thousands of ants were crawling inside.

The One-legged Heavenly Thunder Bull's eyes widened in shock—how vicious! Is this supposed to be a quick death?

After ten minutes, the already critically wounded and defenseless One-legged Heavenly Thunder Bull's organs were corroded away, its eyes turned cloudy, and it drew its final breath.

Gathering the corpses of the two beasts into his Storage Ornament.

The Demon Eagle looked down at its empty belly, feeling an indescribable sorrow.

"We'll take care of your injuries when we get back," Chen Xing said.

Hearing his master's promise again, the Demon Eagle felt a glimmer of belief, because the things in its stomach had already been removed.

If the master really was just offering empty promises, there would have been no need to keep giving false hopes repeatedly.

Could the master truly have a way to heal him?

The Demon Eagle felt a surge of joy.

Chen Xing turned to look toward the direction of Jiu Chi City, "But with such huge losses this time... it looks like this mission has to come to an end."

Even a cornered rabbit will bite; much more a dominating force like Fentian Giant City.

Although all signs indicate the once-dominating power is now declining, it has only shown signs of weakening, not a total loss of its foundations.

Now it is like a whitewasher, desperately pretending to maintain the dignity of a hegemon.

Sometimes certain actions may seem somewhat clownish.

But its true strength is not weak.

Otherwise, Great Xia wouldn't have been using various means to weaken its forces and cut off its claws.

If it were truly weak, why not just overpower it directly?

This time, with a high priest dead here and more than a dozen at the ranks of Fleshly Transcendence, even for a stronghold like Fentian Giant City, the loss is quite severe.

If there is no retaliation after being slapped in the face like this, the hegemonic authority that Fentian Giant City has accumulated over the years may completely collapse.

It's not just an external matter; internal power structures would also be significantly impacted.

After all, if such high-profile figures die without any counterattack, who else could be expected to devote themselves to Fentian Giant City?

Therefore, regardless of the reason, Fentian Giant City must show a strong counterattack next.
