Beast Taming: the More the Better

Chapter 1307: Chapter 536: The Origin of the Heavenly Tomb! Preparing to Enter!

A brilliant light completely illuminated the dark night.

Across the entire battlefield and the command post, the eyes of countless people were drawn to this focal point where the light seemed to converge. It was an Emperor Level Divine Power Ancient Corpse. Behind it stood an Ancient Corpse Army numbering tens of thousands. Like chariots on the battlefield, their bodies were virtually indestructible, and they possessed boundless strength. Though slow, on this sprawling front line, they formed an iron wall that shielded the countless ferocious beasts launching long-range energy attacks behind them. Even on this main battlefield, breaking through such an impregnable defense would require a tremendous amount of effort and the deployment of powerful beings.

Yet, before that beam of light, this seemingly unbreakable wall appeared incredibly fragile. Under everyone’s watchful eyes, countless dark gold eyes in the night merged together. Within the matrix of light, the seventy-two Eyes of Annihilation unexpectedly formed a gigantic dark gold pupil. This pupil looked like the massive barrel of a newly assembled cannon. An incredibly dazzling light burst forth from it, stretching over ten kilometers, and blasted directly into the Divine Power Ancient Corpse.

Annihilation—this was exactly why it was called annihilation!

The Divine Power Ancient Corpse crossed its arms over its chest to block, but in just a few seconds, its body slowly disintegrated and shattered under the devastating beam. Then, the massive dark gold pupil formed by the light slowly swept across the battlefield. The piercing Annihilation Beam swept out like a high-intensity laser weapon. With just a single graze, the entire Ancient Corpse Army in its path was instantly obliterated. They didn’t even have a chance to fight back.

If one had to point out a weakness, it would be that the beam’s turning speed was a bit slow. If an opponent were extremely fast, it might not be able to keep up. Moreover, the energy consumption was immense. After flickering a few times, the light ultimately lasted for about thirty seconds before completely dying out.

However, not a single person in the command post felt disappointed, because in just those thirty seconds, the Divine Power Ancient Corpse and the Ancient Corpse Army had lost half their forces. What kind of concept was this? What kind of casualty ratio was this? As for the speed? That was even less of a concern. The Eye of Annihilation wasn’t created to deal with swift and agile pet beasts on the battlefield.

"Excellent! Su Ping! You’ve created something incredible for our Northern Border Legion once again!" Leng Ye nodded repeatedly.

Su Ping simply smiled from the side. He hadn’t gone to the front lines. This time, the one commanding the Heavenly Tomb Special Beast Taming Army in battle on the front lines was his father, Su Anyong. Listening to Leng Ye’s words, his thoughts slowly drifted away.

He couldn’t be bothered to dive deeper into the matter of the Eye of Annihilation. Not to mention that he didn’t have twenty thousand Universal Experience points; even if he did, he wouldn’t waste them on that. He would just leave that thing up to fate.

Naturally, what he was thinking about was the Heavenly Tomb, which was drawing closer day by day. This matter, which had constantly lingered in his mind ever since he obtained the Heavenly Tomb Sword Seal, had to be resolved eventually.

At this thought, Su Ping glanced out the window. In the sky, heavy snow falling like goose feathers had painted the world completely white. With the arrival of November, it should still be late autumn back in Jianghai Province. Yet, in Beiyuan, it was already a bitter winter filled with bone-chilling cold. The desolate grimness covering this land seemed as if it would never end.

Even though Su Ping had stored the Celestial Tomb Mark into the Myriad Spirit Beast Atlas, the calls in his mind still seemed to echo in his ears. Although he felt somewhat confident, the threat of having a sword dangling over his head still made Su Ping a little nervous. This was especially true after he gained a deeper understanding of the Biyao Chunshen last time. Through his research and cross-referencing with the information recently sent over by the Legend of the Holy Dragon, his hypothesis was continuously verified and highly likely to become a reality.

In this life, he had naturally experienced a few life-and-death crises. However, he also knew that compared to this ordeal with the Heavenly Tomb, his previous experiences—while not exactly child’s play—weren’t much more serious than that, either. More importantly, the Biyao Chunshen had fallen into a deep slumber back then. This left Su Ping short of a major trump card.

His gaze pierced through the window, looking out at the distant world that was slowly being covered in white snow. Yet, above that blanket of white, there was a swath of deep black. Such darkness was the gloom hanging over the entire Northern Border of the Dragon Nation. This gloom had perhaps existed ever since Dragon Country Jiuzhou was established. It had plagued them for well over a thousand years. However, this problem that countless Spirit Saint Level and even Legendary Beastmasters had failed to solve would now fall onto his shoulders.

Su Ping slowly stood up and exhaled a puff of white mist. The look in his eyes gradually grew incredibly resolute. Some things couldn’t be resolved through fear or avoidance. Without a doubt, this darkness would either have to be washed away with blood or cleansed by an iron fist. No matter which it was, this was the path he had to take next.

Just then, a voice broke his train of thought.

"By the way, I thought you were going to join in on the fun this time, kid!"

Hearing Ghost Saint speak, Su Ping shrugged, not bothering to complain about his old man’s behavior. Instead, he asked curiously, "Leng Ye, after all this time, has the number of the Undead Ghost Tide shown no signs of decreasing at all?"

In fact, this was highly unbelievable.
