Beastmaster: I don’t want to be a breeder!.

Chapter 473 Is the power of the native gods poisonous?
This small crystal is filled with the aura of the gods.

If Li Cunxu wasn't mistaken, this was a piece of divine essence, a small piece of divine essence from the God of Ten Thousand Beasts.

Li Cunxu conducted an experiment on it and discovered that this divine essence was the source of the Heavenly Water of Ten Thousand Beasts.

It can absorb faith and create the Myriad Beasts Heavenly Water, which makes it very easy for pets to break through to the King level.

However, the use of creating the Myriad Beasts Heavenly Water is not significant for Li Cunxu. This divine essence is closely connected to the Myriad Beasts Great World, and it is impossible to create the Myriad Beasts Heavenly Water without the Myriad Beasts Great World.

Li Cunxu was considering whether or not to let his pet absorb this small divine spark. If the pet absorbed this small divine spark, it would gain a bit of the authority of the God of Beasts.

"Anyway, there's no use keeping it, so I might as well absorb it."

Li Cunxu handed the small deity to Xiao Ruan.

Suddenly, a hand grabbed Li Cunxu, stopping him.

Li Cunxu's pupils suddenly contracted. He was frightened, not by the hand, but by the fact that the old chairman's life-saving jade pendant, which was tied to his wrist, was gone.

Li Cunxu raised his head and looked at the owner of the hand.

Out of the corner of my eye, I glanced around and was horrified to find that the surroundings had somehow turned into a vast expanse of darkness, a terrifying darkness that seemed to swallow the world whole.

Li Cunxu saw that the owner of the hand that was holding his was a kind and approachable old man.

When Li Cunxu saw the old man's familiar face, he breathed a sigh of relief.

It turns out to be the former chairman.

But why did the old chairman appear?

The old chairman reappears? The life-saving jade disappears?
Could the old chairman in front of me be a phantom image of the old chairman who triggered the appearance of the life-saving jade?

The old chairman shook his head slightly at Li Cunxu and said, "Neither you nor your pet should come into contact with the power of the gods."

"Why? Am I too weak?"

Li Cunxu thought that he was too weak to absorb the power of the gods, which was why the old chairman stopped him. However, the old chairman's answer was different from what he had expected.

“The power of the local gods is poisonous and cannot be absorbed. Even absorbing the power of the Four Gods would be safer than this.”

Li Cunxu couldn't understand it. The Four Gods were evil gods. Absorbing the power of evil gods was safer than absorbing the power of local gods. Could it be that the power of local gods was more dangerous than the power of evil gods?

Li Cunxu even began to doubt whether the person in front of him was deceiving him.

Is the person in front of me really the former chairman? Or could it be someone in disguise?

Li Cunxu glanced at the two jade pendants hanging from the waist, which were meant to protect the old chairman, and found that they did not react. Only then did he believe that the other party was the old chairman.

Could the two life-saving jade pieces be mistaken for one person?

It's not impossible.

If Li Cunxu encountered this kind of situation, then Li Cunxu would accept it.

The person who could deceive even the old chairman's life-saving jade must be one of the strongest in the world. Such a person is someone that even the evil god's avatar cannot defeat.

Let such a powerful person deceive me if they want to; otherwise, they could easily wipe me out in a moment of anger.

Li Cunxu asked, "Why is the power of the local deities poisonous?"

The old chairman said, "It cannot be said. If it is, even my little dark room, which blocks out the world, cannot protect you."

Li Cunxu's mind raced. Who in this world could make even the old chairman lose his life?

In this world, those theoretically stronger than the old chairman include: reclusive powerhouses and the Four Gods.

There are rumors that some powerful figures from reclusive families can defeat the old guild leader.

However, in the game, seemingly powerful and ancient figures are almost always defeated by the old guild leader without exception, so this can be ruled out. Excluding reclusive powerhouses, could it be the Four Gods?

Unless the Four Gods descend to earth in their true form, they cannot possibly be a match for the old chairman.

It seems unlikely that the Four Gods would descend in their true forms to kill them simply because they know why the power of the native gods is poisonous.

If it's not a reclusive powerhouse, and not one of the Four Gods, then who could it be?
Suddenly, Li Cunxu felt a chill run down his spine as he realized something he had overlooked: the will of the world.

If there's one thing in this world that even the old chairman can't protect, then the only thing that can protect us is the world's will.

Is the world's will preventing anyone from learning the truth about the poisonous local deity? Even with the old guild master's protection, they still want to silence them?

What is the truth, and why is the world's will taking it so seriously? Is the poisonous nature of divine power related to the world's will? Is that why it is preventing it?

The old chairman extended his right index finger and touched Li Cunxu's forehead. Instantly, Li Cunxu's thoughts stopped.

The old chairman said with satisfaction, "You are very smart, but it's not time for you to face it yet. Worrying too early will only attract its attention."

"President, my Chi Xiaoxiong once absorbed the legacy of a master thief panda, and the legacy contains a divine essence. Will it be in danger?"

Li Cunxu wanted to summon Chi Xiaoxiong to show the old guild leader, but the dark room isolated his beast-taming space, preventing him from summoning Chi Xiaoxiong.

The old president said, "Don't worry, the Thief Panda stole the hidden danger in the divine personality. However, it was precisely this action that allowed 'it' to discover the Thief Panda and realize the truth. Under its targeting, the Thief Panda died. Otherwise, with the ability of the top-level Thief Law to steal lifespan, the Thief Panda would still be alive now."

Upon hearing this, Li Cunxu felt a surge of curiosity, becoming even more eager to uncover the truth.
But for the sake of his own life, Li Cunxu chose to endure it. Besides, judging from the situation, even if he asked, the old chairman wouldn't tell him.

The old chairman said, "Now that you've emerged into the world, the hidden families will try to kill you. I'm giving you a mission."

Li Cunxu said solemnly, "Please speak, Chairman."

The old president said, "Deal with all the invading enemies. Don't be soft-hearted, and don't worry about things getting out of hand. On the contrary, the bigger things get, the better. Show your true talent to the fullest. I will back you up."

Upon hearing this, Li Cunxu felt as if a weight had been lifted from his heart, leaving him feeling completely at ease.

The surrounding darkness was gradually melting away, and Li Cunxu was leaving the dark room.

The old chairman stared intently at Li Cunxu, muttering in an inaudible voice, "Grow up quickly, I can't hold on much longer."

The old chairman's figure gradually disappeared. After he completely disappeared, Li Cunxu rubbed his eyes. He had just vaguely seen the old chairman's face, which was cold and unfamiliar. That kind of coldness was not ordinary.

How to describe it?
Li Cunxu thought back for a moment and remembered where he had seen that kind of indifferent face before. He had seen it on the face of a god, and not an ordinary god, but an evil god.

The indifference of the gods is the indifference of being high above and regarding all things as mere dogs.

The indifference of the evil god is the indifferent destruction of everything, the indifference that regards all things as consumables.

"Could it be a mistake? Or has the old guild master been corrupted by the evil god? No, that's completely impossible. In the game, an extremely insane follower of the evil god once sacrificed an avatar of the evil god to corrupt the old guild master. It has been clearly confirmed that the old guild master cannot be corrupted by the evil god. But... what was with that expression just now?"

Li Cunxu couldn't understand it.

The dark room has completely disappeared.

"Boss, wake up."

Li Cunxu opened his eyes and saw Jiang Lingyun and a group of pet beasts looking at him with concern.

"Boss, what's wrong? Why did you suddenly faint?"

Li Cunxu covered his head, "I think I just had a dream."

"What did you dream about?"

"Can not remember."

Li Cunxu looked at the small piece of divine essence he was still clutching in his hand, and disgustedly threw it into the Heavenly Pavilion Ring.
