Chapter 379: God of Eternal Night
"Hmm, that makes sense." Emperor Xuan Yi pondered for a long time.
In the end, he decided to temporarily give up on targeting Formless Death Honorific.
Although a god who seemed to be in poor condition was tempting, they truly had no means to deal with the Formless Death Honorific at this stage.
"We can only have someone monitor the periphery of the Secret Realm for now."
"It shouldn't be able to come out at this stage," Chen Xing said.
If it could come out, the many people on Blue Star would be an irresistible temptation for any god.
The reason Formless Death Honorific hasn't emerged is definitely not because it's benign...
Now it's like a shark trapped in a tidal pool on the beach after the tide has receded.
It's dangerous, yet also greatly tempting.
...
Chen Xing approached the old silver dragon to discuss the existence of a passage on the Calamity Dragon Sea side in the Sunset Empire.
"I can't help you with this," the old silver dragon shook his head, "it's not that I'm shirking, I genuinely can't intervene."
"If I intervene, I can't shake off my identity from Dragon Emperor Giant City, and it would only backfire."
"A simple matter would become complicated if I intervene."
"If you really want to solve this, I do have one method. I can give you a token, and you can find my daughter with it; she should be able to handle it," he suggested.
Chen Xing remembered that the old silver dragon's daughter was in the Calamity Dragon Sea.
"Is she also Ascended?"
"Yes, she has been fiery since she was young. It would be better if she could swap temperaments with her brother," the old silver dragon remarked wistfully.
He then asked, "When do you plan to go to the Calamity Dragon Sea?"
"I'm not going," Chen Xing shook his head.
"?" the old silver dragon was stunned, "You're not going?"
"No," Chen Xing pulled out a slice of chilled watermelon from his storage ring, took a bite, and savored the refreshing taste.
"Then you ask me..." the old silver dragon glared, feeling toyed with.
"I'm not going, but someone else could go," Chen Xing now just wanted to stay in Great Xia to nurture Beast Taming. Taotie had already transcended eight levels and might attain Ascension in another year or two.
Stably nurturing Ascension was his biggest goal at the moment.
Taotie had shown himself in a competition, and it wouldn't be safe if someone recognized that Taotie was of Legendary Bloodline.
Therefore, Chen Xing wouldn't risk wandering around in Exotic Region.
He knew there might be old spies watching him.
He'd first stabilize and develop for a while, and after Taotie had ascended, he'd give them a surprise.
...
The old silver dragon didn't know how to describe it.
"Alright, it's just a token anyway," the old silver dragon opened his mouth, spitting out a pink scale.
"Have someone take this scale to a place called 'Storm Valley' in the Calamity Dragon Sea to find a pink dragon."
After receiving the scale, Chen Xing thanked the old silver dragon and prepared to leave.
"Hey, kid, that Beast Taming you summoned during the contest... was it Sky Scar Eye?" the old silver dragon suddenly said.
Chen Xing paused, the old silver dragon indeed recognized Taotie's bloodline. Since it was summoned openly, there was no need to hide it, "Yes."
"Another Legendary Bloodline..." the old Silver Dragon fell silent for a long while, "then you really shouldn't wander around carelessly, lest my good grandchild suffer because of you."
"No wonder that fellow in the Divine Country left you behind alone." The old Silver Dragon sighed lightly. In the Divine Country, two of the three clans of the Behemoths are present, with the last one still in this kid's hands—whom else would they keep if not him?
"Originally, the God of Eternal Night tried to seize control of the sky, almost annihilating all of the Sky Scar Eye, and yet here we find one..." the old Silver Dragon's gaze was complex, uncertain of how to assess the situation.
The God of Eternal Night was not someone easy to deal with; if He knew that there was a surviving bloodline here, He would definitely not let it go.
The local tyrant in the neighboring village slaughtered an entire family to seize all their property, and suddenly a legitimate heir of the family appears.
Would the tyrant wait for the heir to grow up peacefully and then claim his property?
Even if the heir stated he did not want the inheritance, the tyrant wouldn't believe him. Having killed an entire family, killing one more was just convenient.
Chen Xing wondered, "Do you understand the God of Eternal Night?"
The old Silver Dragon replied irritably, "Not at all!"
This was a God!
Having offended a God, one had to sleep with one eye open in the future.
Not to mention the God of Eternal Night was not considered weak among the Ancient Gods.
But after hesitating for quite a while, the old Silver Dragon sighed, "The moon and the sun are among the oldest celestial bodies; the Moon God was birthed by the moon in ancient times.
The Moon God even personally created the Star Realm, but as the Moon God fell, His Authority shattered into pieces, giving birth to a second generation of gods—Goddess of Silver Luminance, God of Eternal Night, and God of Lunar Eclipse."
"In terms of power, the Goddess of Silver Luminance inherited most of the Moon God's Authority. Unlike the creation-loving Moon God, the Goddess of Silver Luminance was more aloof and disliked engaging in schemes.
But the God of Eternal Night was different; He represented the dark side of the moon, and there are legends that the God of Lunar Eclipse was murdered by the God of Eternal Night. Even with the added Authority of the God of Lunar Eclipse, He could not contend against the Goddess of Silver Luminance. Thus, after seizing the God of Lunar Eclipse's Authority, the God of Eternal Night began to plot for other Authorities, and the Sky Scar Eye tribe was exterminated during that time."
"The God of Eternal Night should not revive at this stage, and even if He does, it would be at a much later time, but... you should still prepare in advance," said the old Silver Dragon, his gaze complex.
Was it worth it to offend a powerful God to protect a bloodline targeted by a divine being?
Through the old Silver Dragon's narration, Chen Xing learned the identity of the Sky Scar Eye Tribe's enemy.
But he didn't mind; he had already made an enemy and just needed to find a solution.
It was just a God; he had never killed one before.
...
After saying their goodbyes, Chen Xing returned to Great Xia and conveyed the scales and target details to Emperor Xuan Yi. Great Xia's capable people naturally took care of the rest.
Chen Xing comfortably continued cultivating Beast Taming.

He had finally saved enough Skill Points, and after a quick review, activated two Skills at once.
[Golden Sand Brown Sugar Baked Sticky Rice Cake]A sweet cake with a soft, sticky, and sweet texture that explodes like a taste sensation in the mouth; each bite an ultimate indulgence. It permanently awakens one passive/Innate Skill, does not occupy a skill slot, and each Beast Taming is limited to one serving(800/800)(Activated)
[Law Crystal Grape]A special Law Crystal Grape that can purify the Laws controlled within the body of Beast Taming, and enhance the control level of those Laws(3000/3000)(Activated)
The Golden Sand Brown Sugar Baked Sticky Rice Cake can permanently awaken a passive or Innate Skill.
Passive and Innate skills hold a significant share in the combat elements of Beast Taming.
It can be said that many monsters support their combat systems primarily through that one Innate Skill.
The other item is a new Skill that appeared after the activation of Gourmet Space.
This skill is located in the upper part of the trunk on the Skill Tree, generally at the central area of the Skill Tree.
No matter which route one takes, extending downwards, it eventually converges in this central area.
Enhancing Law control levels is a very crucial ability.
After reaching Ascension in Beast Taming, it becomes extremely difficult to further enhance Law control levels, but the Law Crystal Grape perfectly solves this problem.
