Eternal Beast Taming Family

"Then kill them. Since the founding of the dynasty, the king's decrees have been issued to all sides, and for a long time no city has dared to disobey the king's decrees."

"These lowly bloodlines seem to have forgotten the majesty of our royal family." Another middle-aged man, wearing a tall crown and a red robe, spoke with a bloodthirsty expression.

"Kill? How to kill? Blood Scene King Ancestor was injured and closed off from his cultivation realm. The Yuandu royal family is pursuing a breakthrough in their cultivation realm, and we don't know where they are now."

Our royal family has just lost two more elders at the Spirit Path level, leaving only the three of us. Who should we send to kill them?

"If there is any movement and Tianyuanhai discovers the truth, and if they suddenly launch an attack, our royal family may not be able to withstand it." A white-bearded elder spoke softly.

"If our royal family does nothing in the face of such blatant defiance of royal orders, it will be easier for people to realize that our royal family is now empty."

"Let's move the corpse puppet!"

"They believed that disobeying the king's orders would allow the entire country to launch an attack, and that several powerful families in the capital would send people to assist them. Furthermore, they issued a decree that those who participated in the campaign and made meritorious contributions could be promoted to the rank of Duke or noble."

"This plan is feasible."

……

Just one day later, commotion broke out in the surrounding areas of the city that had openly defied the king's orders.

Large numbers of armored guards and the Beast Legion approached these cities without a sound.

On the same day, the dynasty's new decree was conveyed to all corners of the royal territory. The news that someone had defied the royal decree was earth-shattering for the other weaker regions.

However, as the news spread, the crackdown on these areas also began.

Thousand Spirits City.

Grand Master Luo Xuan stood high in the sky, looking at the dark mass of people surrounding the city. This was almost the entire military force of the three surrounding prefectures, who had gathered outside Qianling Prefecture City in just one day.

Although the royal family is currently weak, it still possesses considerable strength and resources, likely due to the use of large-scale spatial teleportation devices.

Is this an attempt to establish authority and intimidate the world by using Qianling City as a pretext?

However, the royal family was cautious, fearing that others would see through their true strength, and thus did not use any royal power whatsoever.

Zheng Yuandao and Kang Lingshu, the city lord of Qianlingfu City, looked anxiously at Luo Xuan. They couldn't quite understand why the Great Sage Master could still be laughing when the enemy was at their gates.

"Great Master, what should we do now? The combined military strength of these three prefectures is beyond what our Qianling Prefecture alone can withstand."

Compared to Zheng Yuandao, Kang Lingshu, who was forced to join him halfway through, was clearly less patient, and he couldn't help but ask.

"Lord Kang, how many Spiritual Path cultivators do you observe in those three cities?"

Kang Lingshu had already observed them several times, and upon hearing the question, he answered hastily without much thought: "One Spirit Path cultivator, six Mortal Path cultivators. There are only three of us in our city. This…"

"No," Grand Master Luo Xuan waved his hand, "There are only two of them."

As they spoke, the sky darkened in an instant, as if something was falling from the clouds.

Looking up closely, one discovers it is a strange bronze stone wall, with ancient green patterns on it, like a city pressing down from the sky.

The object hadn't even descended yet, but a terrifying aura had already spread throughout the world without reservation.

Kang Lingshu swallowed hard. "Great Master, this is..."

Luo Xuan did not answer, but the bronze stone wall covering the entire city slowly cracked, revealing the scene hidden beneath the stone wall.

It was a smooth mirror that reflected the entire city.

A special field unfolds, in which the soldiers and guards surrounding the city are clearly reflected, but there are some exceptions.

Five of the most powerful contract masters floating in the air around the city did not have any reflection in the mirror. Even the source beasts beside them had reflections, but they themselves did not leave any reflections.

Luo Xuan slowly raised his hand. "Absolute."

An invisible shockwave spread out, and the five contract masters, who had no reflection in the mirror, suddenly froze in mid-air.

Its spiritual will to command its own source beast instantly collapsed, and it itself lost all its aura and the ability to float in an instant, falling headfirst to the ground.

In that instant, all their aura vanished, and a dense deathly aura spread outwards, making them appear as if they had been dead for a very long time.

The source beasts of these five contract masters also seemed to suffer long-suppressed mental trauma in that instant. Some fell silently to the ground, while others went berserk and caused great harm to their allies.

The five powerful figures at the Transcendent Rank perished at the same time, causing chaos among the guards surrounding the city.

This result is terrifying. What kind of being could so easily achieve this?

Kang Lingshu's eyes widened in astonishment. "How did you do that?"

Even if Luo Xuan is a great master of the spiritual path, he cannot kill five mortal contract masters instantly like slaughtering chickens and dogs.

"Some people are alive, but they are already dead." Luo Xuan said something profound, then turned to look at the two remaining Rank-Evolving Contract Masters outside the city.

"Now there are only two of us left, go and defend the city."

The two men then realized what was happening and were about to head out of the city. At this moment, the morale of the opposing army was wavering, making it the perfect time to launch a counterattack.

Outside the city, the two remaining cultivators at the Transformation Realm watched as their five companions perished instantly, especially since one of them was at a much higher level than themselves. Their faces turned pale instantly.

When they saw Luo Xuan's gaze fall on them, they were terrified. Contract masters who could advance to this level valued their lives the most, so they didn't need Kang Lingshu and Zheng Yuandao to launch a counterattack.

The two of them then quickly retreated with their respective guards.

What remained were the guards commanded by the five deceased contract masters. Although their numbers were still considerable, chaos had begun to break out.

Some of the Domain-level generals were quick-witted and took advantage of the chaos to escape with the one they commanded, which was trying to get away from Thousand Spirit City.

In this battle, Qianling City can be said to have won a great victory, but Luo Xuan's expression was not relaxed. He looked towards the direction of the capital, wondering what kind of methods the elders in the city would use next.

However, compared to the ease with which Qianlingfu City was attacked, Hanyue Ancient City was indeed stormed into the city on the same day, and all the noble families in the city were beheaded and thrown into the Blood Refining Array.

The western border is somewhat complicated. The border is full of brave and skilled warriors, but with the arrival of people from the capital and forces from nearby cities, the border itself has fallen into chaos.

The final result was that the border was opened, and endless cold waves rushed straight into the dynasty's territory from outside the border.

In an instant, a small area in the western part of the dynasty was covered by the cold wave, and the spiritual energy was silenced. Moreover, the affected area was gradually spreading towards the heart of the dynasty.

In the areas covered by the cold wave, even the city walls could not stop the temperature from dropping. A large number of ordinary people in the affected areas died, and even some low-level contract masters who had contracted source beasts seemed to be slowly turning into ice sculptures.

A greater threat of death than the Blood Refining Trial spread across the dynasty's territory along the path of the cold wave.
