Beast Taming: Starting from Transmigration and Starting with a Cheat Code

Outside the task force's meeting room, Mu Haoran held a cold cup of coffee, his eyes still somewhat glazed over, his mind replaying the series of bizarre events that had unfolded from yesterday to today.

"So... how exactly did they find that cat?"

He, who was theoretically involved in the entire "cat search" process, felt like a bicycle that had accidentally entered a high-speed track since yesterday afternoon. Apart from holding on tightly to the handlebars to prevent being thrown off, he couldn't keep up with the pace at all.

The CPU was running at full speed, and the heatsink was humming loudly, but it still couldn't produce a reasonable calculation result.

A seasoned veteran detective strolled over carrying a large tea mug, chuckled at the boy's bewildered expression, and lowered his voice: "Kid, still reeling? You didn't see what happened in the latter half of last night!"

He sipped his strong tea and began to describe it vividly: "The phone at the station never stopped ringing! One minute it was this leader subtly inquiring, the next it was that person with connections pleading on my behalf... Good heavens, it was a cacophony of noise, like a firecracker going off all at once!"

"The key is," the old detective leaned closer, his voice carrying a mocking tone that suggested he was enjoying the spectacle.

"Some of the guys who got in there have some really damn connections! I don't know how they found out, but the fuse that ignited this huge storm and took down their hideout was all because of a lost cat!"

Several guys who felt they were dragged down by their "useless teammates" were furious on the spot!

"He simply went all out and became a 'tainted witness,' revealing everything about the cat-stealing rings, the hiding places for stolen goods, the locations for selling stolen goods, and even clues to several old cases in this area!"

Mu Haoran's mouth gaped open, wide enough to fit an egg: "So this is... a collapse of the criminal gang, with members turning on each other? A case... can be solved like this!?"

The veteran detective patted him heavily on the shoulder and laughed heartily.

"What else did you think? Did you really think we could have solved the missing cat case and a bunch of other theft cases so quickly by handing out flyers and asking door-to-door like we did before?"

"Alright, stop thinking about it. The world is full of wonders. Go back and write your report. You'll have a lot to write this time!"

Mu Haoran: !

Knowing that Qin Ming had been officially transferred to the cold case task force, Mu Haoran felt his brief and exciting "VIP case-solving experience card" had expired, and looking at the long report he still had to complete, he suddenly felt bored.

"To everyone in the task force, this is Advisor Qin."

Several police officers, their eyes bloodshot from exhaustion, looked up and cast scrutinizing yet expectant glances at the young consultant.

Qin Ming was faced with a tricky drowning case file. The forensic autopsy report indicated that the victim had injuries to his neck and was ruled a homicide.

However, the body was swollen from prolonged immersion, making fingerprint comparison impossible and the point of entry into the water and the identity impossible to confirm, thus the case reached a stalemate from the very beginning.

Qin Ming also had a headache dealing with this kind of difficult backlog of cases for a while. In comparison, he appreciated the food he had been fed yesterday even more.

Are we going to make Little Fatty go into the water and question each fish one by one, eating them if they don't cooperate, forcibly extracting their confessions?

It's not impossible, but the problem is that fish have a seven-second memory and might not remember clearly.

With no eyewitnesses to be found, and even eyewitnesses like fish being difficult to locate, Qin Ming felt the situation becoming increasingly thorny.

Looking inward at the golden beads of merit in his mind, Qin Ming discovered that the number had more than doubled compared to the previous evening.

It is highly likely that the final payment for yesterday's events has begun to be settled.

But this is much richer than Qin Ming had expected... Could it be that he misjudged, and there are rare species among those "small fish and shrimp"?

It's a bit strange, but it's a good thing overall.

Having exceeded expectations in completing his mission, Qin Ming decided to return to the Spirit Martial Continent. However, things on Blue Star had become complicated, which must be because his cultivation level was not high enough to break through all laws with his own strength.

-

Lingwu Continent.

"Yo yo, the deer can't wait!"

The Mu Chunling deer trotted its feet, its body surrounded by emerald light and shadow, its clear eyes fixed on Qin Ming, urging him on.

Looking around the deer's body, one sees a large circle of various treasures already arranged.

Qin Ming realized that what was about to happen might be a sight he would never see again in his life, so he became even more cautious, holding his breath and focusing his mind on the power of merit in his mind.

A warm, powerful golden energy, imbued with the blessing of Heaven, slowly emanated from Qin Ming's brow and entered the body of Mu Chunling Deer.

This power was like a key, instantly activating some ancient contract hidden deep in the bloodline!

"Buzz—!"

A brilliant yet gentle, holy light burst forth from the body of the Spring Deer.

Within the light, his form underwent an astonishing transformation. His body became more slender and streamlined, his limbs more delicate and powerful, and wisps of cloud swirled around his hooves.

The ancient branches of the deer antlers are like the most perfect works of art, with mysterious natural patterns growing on the crystal clear jade-like luster.

Strands of spiritual energy from heaven and earth converged into visible streams of radiant light, swirling around the deer antlers.

The tranquil yet powerful life force cannot be concealed by this thin wall.

Several powerful figures flashed over, all startled by the aura of this breakthrough.

"Whose spirit beast is breaking through here? Such a pure and tranquil life force!" An elder couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

Dean Hui, who was at the head of the group, stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the hazy and sacred deer shadow in the light. His eyes flashed with satisfaction and understanding. He stroked his beard and smiled slightly, his words carrying a profound meaning: "A partner of an old friend has unexpectedly obtained a great opportunity here today."

"Yo—!"

The evolved sacred deer raised its head and let out a clear and melodious cry that pierced the clouds, containing a power far greater than before and gratitude towards Qin Ming.

Wherever the sound reached, the grass and trees rejoiced, and the flowers bloomed.

At the same time, the man in the blue robe, who was engrossed in dealing with his "debts" in some unknown secret place, suddenly stopped moving!

He clearly felt an unprecedented, surging energy feedback from within the soul contract!

This power was pure and immense, instantly shattering the bottleneck he had accumulated over a long period of time!

He grunted, no longer caring about the chores at hand, and sat down cross-legged on the spot, forming hand seals, his body radiating a bright blue light.

His old friend, who was supervising his "work," saw this and glared at him, puffing out his beard: "Old Shen! It's not that I'm cheating you! You stole my most treasured piece of wood, the Hidden Wood, and you haven't paid off that debt yet..."

He was halfway through his sentence when he suddenly sensed the uncontrollable, rapidly rising aura emanating from Shen Qingxian. His eyes widened, and his voice changed tone:

"You...you broke through!?"

"That's...that's a breakthrough?!"
