After using cheats, I became the strongest Beast Tamer

"We killed seven, three ran away, one high priest had a life-saving spatial item and he took two people with him."

Dong Fang felt somewhat regretful, these high priests were vital to the force of Fentian Giant City.

During the war, a high-level Transcendent could fully command a legion, defending a critical node.

This was why only those who had reached a high level of Transcendence could hold the position of legion commander within Fentian Giant City.

Gu Yuzhi shook his head, "It doesn't matter, the main objective was achieved, one who was ready for Ascension died, and he was the high priest of Fentian Temple; this means one less powerful enemy on the battlefield in the future.

However, Gu Yuzhi then added, "But what is Chen Xing's background? Does he have any powerful support behind him?"

"Brother Gu, you're overthinking it again." Dong Fang said.

Gu Yuzhi sighed, "I'm not overthinking, just consider how he managed to possess a peak Transcendence beast in such a short time, and even mastered the laws; if you think there's no big power backing him, do you believe it?

He's only eighteen years old, has been a Beast Tamer for just two years, aside from those so-called divine children from the Era of the Gods, when have you ever heard of such an anomaly?"

Dong Fang was silent for a while before continuing, "But no matter what power supports Chen Xing, it is a solid fact that he has helped us, and as far as we can see, whoever is behind him might not necessarily have any ill intentions toward Great Xia, or else they wouldn't have revealed themselves so directly, right?"

"That's a valid point." Gu Yuzhi nodded, "Investigating what's behind him isn't our job, nor does it concern us, I'm just the City Lord of Stone City now."

Dong Fang said, "Brother Gu, we should leave now. If Fentian Giant City sends new reinforcements, they won't take long to arrive via the Teleportation Array."

"It's time to leave quickly." Gu Yuzhi gathered his Beast Taming.

Just then, in the dense Earth Fire poison fog, a powerful aura suddenly burst forth.

Shortly after, a white curtain split the fog and descended not far in front of them.

"Congratulations." Gu Yuzhi looked towards the Heavenly White Moon Python, whose aura had become much stronger, seeming to have broken through to the peak of Transcendence.

"Has the battle finished?" Ming Junting looked around the empty battlefield except for the two of them, "Where's brother Chen?"

Gu Yuzhi replied, "He's over there, Chi Xing has been dealt with."

Upon hearing that Chi Xing had been dealt with, Ming Junting's face lit up with a smile, "Now Fentian Giant City has taken a serious blow, but their retaliation might come quickly, so we'd better leave here first."

Chen Xing flew in from afar on the shoulders of Sìxiàng, and after a brief discussion, the four decided to immediately leave the area.

Before this battle, Ming Junting had already given orders, and all personnel from the Jin Ye Guard had gradually left after the mission started.

However, which direction to go was a more serious issue.

Initially, they were located north of Lake of Fire, and farther north laid Jiu Chi City.

If new reinforcements came through Jiu Chi City via teleportation, it would not take long.

If they wanted to head back, traveling from here to Stone City would require crossing two thousand miles over Lake of Fire, several times the distance to Jiu Chi City.

While heading to Jiu Chi City would also take some time, they might just run into the reinforcements…

The best plan was still to walk towards the side, hiding deeper into the wilderness.

After all, all four were peak Transcendent Beast Tamers; the wilderness posed virtually no danger to them.

As long as they didn't unluckily enter the territory of a wild Ascension beast.

Looking at the three people discussing in front of him, Chen Xing suddenly spoke, "I know a safe place."

"Where?"

Dong Fang and Gu Yuzhi were curious.

Ming Junting seemed thoughtful, as if he had a hint of an idea. Read exclusive chapters at empire

"Don't resist." Chen Xing said, letting Sìxiàng pull the three into the Dark Realm.

The surroundings shifted in space.

The four felt the scenery change abruptly around them, as the terrain outside had already been completely destroyed in the battle, whereas the nearby scenes in the Dark Realm still maintained the pre-battle setting.

"Good job, this is actually another space." Although Gu Yuzhi asked, his tone was utterly affirmative.

"You actually have the ability to enter another space; it looks like we are safe now, unless it's a space Ascension, no one can possibly track us down." Dong Fang laughed.

He had seen many things before, having encountered Ascension-level beings in the Ice Snow Territory.

Although Ascension-level power was far beyond that of Transcendence, it was not yet unfathomably powerful.

"What do we do next?"

"We'll head in that direction." Chen Xing pointed towards Stone City.

...

Not long after the four had left.

The sky above Stone City changed dramatically.

The sky was dyed with crimson twilight, and within the deep red, streaks of golden light flickered.

The next second, accompanied by a prolonged cry.

The void ignited, and bunches of red lotuses floated from the sky to the ground.

The consistent red lotuses looked like solid resin.

These red lotuses moved deceptively fast,

Shortly after appearing, the first red lotus had already drifted to the ground.

The roof that touched the red lotus instantly burned into a large hole, and immediately, illusory flames surged, spreading outwards from the roof as the center.

The clusters of red lotuses linked together, a massive fire extending from the heavens down to the earth, even igniting all the red lotuses still falling through the void.

In an instant, the entire city was engulfed in a world of fire.

From a distance, the outline of the city was shrouded in flames.

The fire burned for a day and a night before extinguishing.

...

The four arrived in Stone City within the Dark Realm.
