Eternal Beast Taming Family

The place of chaos is located in the south of the Mortal Dynasty, near the Biyue River basin, in a forbidden area called Nightmare Spirit Heavenly Pool. Nearby are three major cities: Yinghua, Xunluo, and Fushan.

Their rebellion took place at midnight on the 14th of the seventh month of the 300th year of the Holy Calendar, which was the morning of the 15th.

The Nightmare Spirit Heavenly Pool dispatched three King-level warriors with thousands of ghostly figures to launch a siege attack on the three cities almost simultaneously.

Although the three cities reacted immediately, launching defenses and counterattacks, they were ultimately facing a true King-level expert.

From the start of the siege, less than an hour later, the defenses on the city walls were breached, and the three cities fell into the control of the perilous Nightmare Spirit Pool.

The Nightmare Spirit Pool is located atop Falling Moon Mountain beside the Azure Moon River. It is called the Nightmare Spirit Pool because, during the full moon, ghostly figures are said to roam around the pool on its summit.

Those who witness it are invariably terrified and unable to sleep, trapped in nightmares for a long time, and ultimately follow the figure of the nightmare spirit into the spirit pool on the mountain peak.

Therefore, people called those wandering ghostly figures "Nightmare Spirits," and the forbidden area on the mountain was also called Nightmare Spirit Heavenly Pool.

However, this forbidden land did not produce any resources, so after it was discovered to be a forbidden land, no more contract masters went to the Spirit Observation Pool, and news about the Nightmare Spirit Heavenly Pool has become increasingly scarce in recent years.

However, after the great changes in the world, within the territory of the Mortal Dynasty, it became the first place that dared to send troops to attack and occupy the city of the Mortal Dynasty.

At the summit of Mount Luoyue, above the enormous spirit pool, countless shadowy figures of nightmare spirits stood on the mirror-like surface of the water.

Above the many ghostly shadows on the pool's surface, contract masters resembling humans floated high in the sky, though their appearance seemed slightly different from that of normal humans, perhaps due to the remnants of the era.

On the corners of their eyes and brows, there were uniform black runes that looked like scribbles.

Above these buoyant contractors, several figures sat on thrones, their gazes not fixed on anything, but rather as if they were observing other places with their spiritual power.

Although eerie shadows loomed large, the place was eerily quiet at this moment.

An hour after midnight, the figure seated on the throne finally spoke.

"They captured three cities in just one hour. It seems... this so-called Mortal Dynasty is not something to be afraid of."

The speaker had a slight smile on his face, seemingly quite satisfied with the results achieved by the three kings who had gone to war.

The figure on the other throne opposite him spoke.

"It's better to be cautious. After all, the Mortal Dynasty caused the fall of a heaven-sent emperor. They must have some special methods."

The figure on the adjacent throne nodded slightly.

"We just need to hold on for this period of time. Once the other Jedi emerge, that will be the true end of this mortal dynasty."

"But... I still think it would be better to contact the other Jedi first and emerge together." A somewhat timid voice came from the very last throne.

"Qingran, don't forget we were once a dynasty. Where has your pride gone?"

"I know, but... isn't that the case now...?"

A beam of bright moonlight shone down from the sky, landing on the tallest of the many thrones, illuminating the face of the man seated upon it.

A steady male voice spoke, "He's here..."

Colorful petals fell from the sky under the moonlight, followed by graceful butterflies fluttering out from the air.

Various elements flowed through heaven and earth, and then gathered on their own into large clouds that converged between heaven and earth, forming a picture scroll that looked like an oil painting.

Immediately afterwards, a huge branch emerged from the void. The gods above the Nightmare Spirit Heavenly Pool looked up at the branch and discovered a calm figure standing on it.

The Venerable King of Mortal Life has descended!

He was dressed in simple white clothes, with a scepter entwined with flower vines floating beside him.

Over the years, and with the advancement of the contracted source beasts, the scepter representing Chu Shengfan's identity has undergone many changes.

The scepter is no longer a single wooden staff, but three staffs of different shades intertwined together, with flowering vines as embellishments.

At the top of the scepter, a colorful bead with flowing halos of different elements is embedded in it, creating various otherworldly phenomena around the scepter.

Chu Shengfan simply stood quietly at the end of the branch, on that large leaf.

The entire world underwent a series of dynamic changes due to his arrival, and at the same time, immense pressure from the laws of nature faintly emerged, suppressing the kings on the Nightmare Spirit Pool.

It was as if it were proclaiming that Chu Shengfan, the Venerable King of Mortal Life, was the only king recognized by this world.

"What a grand display." Above the Nightmare Spirit Heavenly Pool, the pale-faced man sitting on the highest throne spoke softly.

He raised his finger, and a spiritual shadow appeared from the throne behind him, then instantly grew to be enormous, as if it were about to engulf the heavens and the earth.

Its ghostly face was hidden under the cloak, and it had no hands or feet. From a distance, it looked like a shadow wearing a cloak but without legs.

Just a glimpse from afar is enough to instill immense fear.

His action seemed to send a signal, and the other kings above the Nightmare Spirit Pool also summoned their spirit shadows. One enormous spirit shadow after another appeared, as if reversing the rules of this world.

When Chu Shengfan appeared, the suppression of heaven and earth over them was instantly broken.

Despite all this, Chu Shengfan's expression remained unchanged, still indifferent.

"Those who offend the mortal dynasty shall be executed."

As he pronounced his judgment, figures moved from the clouds formed by elements, and then various pure elements formed a colorful torrent that rushed straight from all parts of the sky towards those enormous spirit figures.

The faint moonlight emanating from those spirit figures dissipated into the purest spiritual energy, returning to the world before it could reveal more of itself, under the impact of the elemental torrent.

As the spirit vanished, the figures sitting on the thrones seemed to have suffered a great blow, and their aura immediately weakened. Even the one at the very end hunched over instantly, as if he had aged a thousand years in an instant.

Even the figure on the highest throne had traces of blood at the corner of his mouth, and the moonlight shining down from the sky seemed to dim.

However, this was not the end. Their keen intuition as kings made them realize that the unknown creature moving behind the elemental clouds in the sky had already focused its attention on them.

Sure enough, the next moment the torrent of elements converged again in all directions of the sky, as if to resolve them in the most primitive and direct way.

The figures on the throne could no longer remain seated; they rose directly from their thrones, and the beams of moonlight enveloping them expanded.

Until the entire Nightmare Spirit Pool was completely covered, under the moonlight, he and the many spirit figures above the pool became somewhat illusory.

The obscure and incomprehensible sounds of sacrificial prayers spread like waves from the spirits and from the mouths of the kings.

As if it had materialized, it transformed into patterns that descended from the sky. At this moment, the converging torrents of elements seemed to be stopped by some invisible force, and they temporarily came to a halt.

It even shows a faint tendency to collapse.

Standing atop the enormous branches that stretched from the void, Chu Shengfan's expression finally changed slightly upon seeing this scene; it wasn't panic or a furrowed brow.

Instead, there was a hint of anticipation, as if they wanted to see what kind of commotion these kings could create.
