Beast Taming Patrol

Chapter 1608 - 449: Inspector’s Token (Double Issue, Countdown to Finale: 1)

"As for where Blue Star is..." Shou smiled faintly, "Open your eyes wide and watch carefully."

As Shou spoke, a world unfolded clearly before Lin Su's eyes.

He saw every continent and ocean that he and the six little ones had traversed over a thousand years, saw the body of Blue Star that vanished into a myriad of luminous points in the guardroom of the Autumn Leaf Breeding Base, dissipating as though it never existed.

He saw a barrier outside Blue Star dissolve the moment he passed away, saw a mass of mythical beasts and newly ascended mythical Beast Tamers pass through the barrier, stepping into the starry sky.

He saw, beyond the starry sky, stars big and small, similar to Blue Star, and even on those stars, a diverse array of races thriving and growing strong.

He saw Blue Star's powerhouses set foot on other stars for the first time, negotiating and communicating with those beings.

Unlike the different realms in the chaos that have distinct rules and power systems, these stars and Blue Star followed the same rules and power systems, existing in the same universe.

And this universe, is not the realms.

It maintained an indescribable state with Shou, making them completely overlap in Lin Su's eyes.

Shou is this entire universe, and this universe is Shou's entirety.

For a moment, Lin Su felt a sudden realization surge within him.

Perhaps, this is a state and form of existence even stronger than the Dao Origin Realm Shou mentioned earlier.

And the connection between Shou and Blue Star made sense, with the Ghost Energy Stone forming Shou's body appearing on Blue Star, ushering in the Beast Taming era.

Thinking that everything in the Beast Taming era arose because of the entity before him, Lin Su's emotions were quite complex.

However, for now, he temporarily set aside those thoughts and continued searching the entire universe, hoping to find another world he recognized.

Countless stars he swept past in an instant, gazing from one extreme of the universe to the other, yet he still couldn't find the familiar presence from his memory.

Lin Su fell silent for a moment, then slowly spoke, "I haven't found Shen Wu."

"That's because..." Shou paused slightly, "After you awoke, you haven't looked at yourself."

Look at myself?

Lin Su was taken aback, instinctively looking at himself.

He saw an entirely new world.

Most of the regions in that world were so familiar, it was the Beast Taming Space that he and the six little ones had built and perfected over the millennia.

And the area occupying one-sixth of the Beast Taming Space, which was shrouded in mist that he and the six little ones couldn't penetrate, now revealed its true appearance as Lin Su unlocked the seal.

In each of the four directions—southeast, southwest, northeast, northwest—sat the Four Domains, separated by the vast Endless Sea.

The mist-covered area was Shen Wu.

And this world, merging the Beast Taming Space with Shen Wu, was just like himself.

Much like Shou and the universe that included Blue Star.

Compared to his own single spherical world, Shou was at a higher level.

Realizing this, Lin Su's previously calm emotions once again surged into a tumultuous wave.

Blue Star is Shou, Shen Wu is himself?

He seemed to understand some questions that were unclear before, but more doubts followed closely.

The next moment, in the northern part of Shen Wu's Four Domains, he saw the six little ones and Xie Venerate, Rong Venerate, who had revived all beings fallen in the calamity after slaying the Time Master and the Seven Kings, and saw the resurrected Martial Emperor, his master and old acquaintances.

Has the calamity of Shen Wu ended?

Lin Su was first amazed, then he understood.

Indeed, Shen Wu's time flow must differ from the chaos.

In the instant he cast his gaze, the time flow of Shen Wu and the chaos temporarily synchronized, allowing the contract link between the six little ones and Lin Su to reactivate.

The six little ones hurriedly informed Lin Su of everything that transpired after their return to Shen Wu, letting Lin Su know what had happened.

"Don't worry, I'll return as soon as possible."

Facing the six little ones' concerns about his situation, Lin Su left a reassuring message, then slightly reluctantly withdrew his gaze once more and turned back to Shou.

After a brief silence, he asked again, "Why?"

The question seemed a little scattered, but Shou already understood Lin Su's meaning.

"Throughout the long years, I've always been curious about what form you'll take to appear before me in the end." He smiled faintly, "I have to say, you did better than I imagined."

"This will be a very, very long story. Do you want to hear it?"

Lin Su nodded emphatically.

He had a premonition that this story would answer many of his doubts.

So Shou took a moment to prepare, then spoke slowly.

"Chaos is the ultimate."

"Once, powerful beings believed that there are more realms beyond realms, that chaos may not be the only chaos out there, but our strength is too weak to reach them, just as ordinary beings in the realms cannot step outside."

"But in my eyes, chaos is the only one."

"Although it is filled with chaotic and unruly forces, it nurtures everything."

"Chaos nurtures realm after realm, and indirectly nurtures beings within these realms."
