Beast Taming: I can even raise gods and demons!

Chapter 194 The Nightmare Court, The Demon King of the Eastern Region (6060 words)

The far west...

The sky was low, thick and eerie dark clouds lingered year after year, casting huge shadows on the earth, as if the earth had been swallowed by a demon god.

The void was filled with the scent of despair.

This area, spanning eight thousand miles, is filled with miasma and is known as the "cursed land."

Legend has it that this is a region cursed by the gods.

Whether human or monster, once inside, none can ever leave; they are destined to be buried there, their very souls unable to escape.

Some people even witnessed that many monsters only walked to the edge of the "cursed land" before being swept into the miasma and disappearing without a trace without even letting out a scream.

More than two thousand years ago, the Cursed Land stretched outwards for three thousand miles, becoming the first forbidden area on Earth.

Nobody wants to come near here.

No one dared to approach this place.

At dawn, when the sun rises, the cursed land remains as dark as night.

In the dim light, one could vaguely see pieces of white bones covered in mud emerging from the swamp.

Piles of white bones shimmered with faint light.

A cold wind howled, as if countless vengeful spirits were crying and roaring.

But in the very center of this eerie and gloomy place stands an exceptionally large ancient castle.

At this moment, in the main hall at the top of the castle, a group of men in black robes sat motionless in two rows on chairs.

On the robes of all the men in black robes was embroidered a demon's head!

No one speaks.

Everyone remained motionless, like stone statues.

The atmosphere was extremely eerie.

Sudden……

Black mist surged in the void ahead.

The extremely dense black mist condensed into a terrifying demon's head.

The two rows of men in black robes stood up at the same time.

"It failed?"

The demonic head formed from condensed black mist emitted a sound like steel scraping together, causing excruciating headaches.

The eerie sound wasn't very loud, but it was like thunder, echoing throughout the hall!

"More than two thousand years ago..."

"We have been imprisoned on this tiny blue planet for over two thousand years."

"The passage to Earth has not been found."

"The passage to the Celestial Feather Realm has not been found."

"The whereabouts of the missing Chu Qingcheng have not been found."

"My ninth-rank cultivator, whom I nurtured at great expense, was crushed like an insect outside Donghai City of Tang Kingdom?"

"They couldn't even capture a few greenhorn human brats?"

The voice of the demon's head was very slow.

There was no trace of anger in his voice, as if he had no human emotions at all.

But the group of black-robed men standing below were all trembling and sweating profusely!

The black-robed man at the front respectfully reported, "Reporting to the Demon King of the Eastern Region, the Martial Ancestor has tampered with the Earth's passages... Our people have calculated the locations of the teleportations to various countries this year, but even with our men stationed in those areas, we still haven't found the passages."

"Those people from Earth seemed to appear out of thin air."

"When the mist cleared, those people appeared in the square..."

"Useless!" The demon head, revered as the "Demon King of the Eastern Region," snorted lightly.

The man in black robes who had spoken was instantly struck as if by lightning. He let out a miserable groan and his body trembled violently!

But he gritted his teeth and continued, "Finding a passage to Earth... I'm afraid we'll have to wait until next year."

"Demon King, please rest assured, we have already planted our people in the high-ranking positions of various countries."

"We know the teleportation location in advance every year."

The Eastern Demon King in the void remained silent.

The man in black robes added, "I am also trying to find the passage to the Heavenly Feather Realm."

"We, the people of the Nightmare Court, have entered countless forbidden zones and secret realms, conducting a thorough search to find the passage to the Celestial Feather Realm."

"Our operations in countries like Yang and Xing have been very successful."

"However, the Tang Kingdom has encountered some setbacks..."

"Please, Demon King, grant me a little more time."

"Your subordinate will definitely find the passage to the Heavenly Feather Realm!"

The Eastern Demon King in the void remained silent.

"As for Chu Qingcheng..."

The leader of the black-robed men looked puzzled: "Wasn't Chu Qingcheng killed by the four demon kings working together back then?"

Why did the four demon kings say they needed to find his whereabouts?

"Kill? Heh heh heh..." The Eastern Demon King in the void chuckled. "Killing a being of this caliber? How easy is that?"

The group of Nightmare Court experts were immediately filled with shock!

Chu Qingcheng back then was indeed a woman of extraordinary talent and beauty.

But Chu Qingcheng is still quite young; how could she possibly contend with the four kings?

Even Li Mu and Han Jiangxue of the Tang Dynasty could not possibly fight against four demon kings alone, right?

Back then, weren't Li Mu and Han Jiangxue lured to the Star Kingdom and not involved in that battle?

Then the Demon King of the Eastern Region said again, "We don't have much time left..."

"No matter the cost, we must find Chu Qingcheng!"

"Yes!" A group of men in black robes replied tremblingly.

The Demon King of the Eastern Region remained silent for a moment, then asked, "Why is the Demon Empress Ye Hongyan here in the Tang Kingdom?"

The black-robed man who had spoken earlier wiped away a cold sweat and said, "This subordinate also doesn't know... That demon empress has always been guarding the far north. We never expected that she would suddenly appear in the Tang Kingdom and steal the Five-Colored Divine Stone."

"When we were hunting down the leader of the Heavenly Demon Sect, we focused our attention on Li Mu and Han Jiangxue and their group."

"It took a great deal of effort to divert their attention elsewhere."

"Unexpectedly, Ye Hongyan interfered, not only killing our ninth-rank expert, but also directly taking away the Five-Colored Divine Stone."

A blood-red light flashed in the eyes of the Eastern Demon King, who coldly said, "I will settle this score with Ye Hongyan later!"

The man in black robes below asked cautiously, "Has the entire Chu family moved to Shanghai now..."

"With Li Mu overseeing things in Shanghai, your subordinates..."

The Demon King of the Eastern Region glanced coldly at the man in black robes and said in a chilling tone, "I don't care what methods you use to find Chu Qingcheng."

"I only care about the results!"

"Yes!" The man in black robes wiped away another bead of cold sweat.

Immediately, the demon's head vanished without a trace with a whoosh.

All the men in black robes on the field immediately felt as if a huge mountain had been lifted from their hearts, and they all let out a heavy sigh of relief!

With just a wisp of consciousness, he caused a group of ninth-rank cultivators unbearable pain...

It's simply unbelievable!

……

"Ah... Qiu!"

In a high-rise building in Shanghai, Li Mu sneezed.

"Huh? Someone's complimenting my looks again?!"

Li Mu stroked his chin, rolled his eyes, and then continued to look through the information on the computer.

The document contained several photos of Chen Fan!

Li Mu smiled slightly as he examined Chen Fan's photos, nodding as he looked: "This kid, not bad, very good..."

After looking at Chen Fan's information for a while, Li Mu put his feet up on the table, moved his fingers a few times, and logged into the Beast Taming Forum.

His forum nickname was displayed on the forum...

The most handsome man on Earth.

……

inside the room.

Chen Fan was fast asleep.

Xiaobai and Gangzi slept on his left and right sides respectively.

Emerald and the Illusionary King Azure Python Golden Horned Beast were fast asleep on the table in front of the TV in the living room... These two had been watching TV all night and only drifted off to sleep when the sun came out.

Sudden……

"Bang!"

With a loud crash, Li Fengxing charged in, carrying a greatsword on his back.

The door to Chen Fan's bedroom flew directly onto the bed.

Chen Fan, Xiao Bai, and Gang Zi all sat up abruptly.

"Bang!"

The flying door hit them on the head.

Three heads peeked out from the door.

Chen Fan: "..."

Li Fengxing: "..."

"Brother Fan, I didn't mean to!" Li Fengxing turned and ran!

Two streaks of lightning flashed in the sky as Chen Fan and Xiao Bai simultaneously unleashed their lightning flashes, catching up with Li Fengxing.

Gangzi charged forward and caught up, biting Li Fengxing's foot.

"Click!"

Gangzi bit down on the armor but couldn't get it to move, so he angrily raised his head.

Chen Fan snatched Li Fengxing's greatsword and swung it at Li Fengxing's head!

"Help!"

Li Fengxing fled in a disheveled state.

Outside, Chu Xuan looked at Chen Fan, his eyes narrowing slightly.

Did I see it wrong?

It seems like Chen Fan and Xiao Bai used Lightning Flash at the same time?

That's impossible.

If Chen Fan borrows Xiao Bai's "Thunder Flash" skill, Xiao Bai will be unable to use Thunder Flash again for at least ten minutes.

At this moment, Ye Hao, Shen Daodao, and others poked their heads out of the windows of the houses.

"Fengxing, you son of a bitch, what's all this noise about so early in the morning!"

Ye Hao rubbed his messy hair and yelled, "We worked for Brother Fan all night yesterday, and you won't even let us get a good night's sleep!"

Shen Daodao and the others watched as Li Fengxing was brutally beaten by Chen Fan, but none of them came to intervene.

People are all grumpy when they wake up.

Chen Fan was still recovering from his injuries and was very sleepy on the way to Shanghai.

Now that I can finally get a good night's sleep, Li Fengxing has to run over and yell at me. You're lucky if I don't beat you to death.

But after Li Fengxing's outburst, neither Ye Hao and the others, nor Chen Fan, could sleep.

After washing up, the group of people went to the garden.

In the garden, Chen Fan's butler, Uncle Dong, had already prepared breakfast for everyone.

It's still the same group of people from the East Sea City Beast Breeders Association.

Zhang Hai brought everyone with him.

They practically moved the entire land belonging to the Beastmaster Association of Donghai City over here.

Shen Daodao took a sip of porridge and said, "Brother Fan, it seems we're going to report to the First Martial Arts University today?"

"They sent me a message yesterday saying that I need to go there to report this morning..."

"I really don't understand. It's just a training camp for students admitted through the guaranteed admission program, why the rush?"

"We just arrived in Shanghai and haven't even had a proper rest yet!"

"Your injuries haven't fully healed yet!"

Shen Hongxiu tapped Shen Daodao on the head with a spoon: "Stop talking while eating!"

"It chatteres away like a crow!"

Xiao Hei, who was eating on the other side, looked up and said, "How does this idiot resemble a crow? He's just a complete moron, what does he have to do with crows?"

Everyone: "..."

Shen Daodao picked up a bone and threw it at Xiao Hei.

Xiao Hei unleashed a "Shadow Arrow," shattering the bones in mid-air into dust, before proudly raising its head.

Neither the group of people nor their beasts paid any attention to it.

The goblin, who was eating with Chen Fan and the others at the table, exclaimed in surprise, "Wow! Little Black's Shadow Bolt is getting more and more powerful! Awesome!"

Everyone: "..."

Fang Qingqing blushed and lowered her head, not daring to look at everyone.

When exactly did Xiao Bu go from being a sarcastic and mean-spirited person to becoming a sycophant?

That being said...

The goblins of the past were known for their sharp tongues and biting wit, and in that respect, they were not much different from the black goblins.

Most people would want to pin him down and beat him up if they encountered him.

Even Fang Qingqing's Silver Moon Azure Feather Bird and Frost White Python disliked him.

But ever since this guy changed his personality, his relationship with a group of beast tamers has improved a lot.

That time in Donghai City, this guy even acted as a leader for a while, leading a group of beast tamers to storm the hospital, luring Feng Tianlin out and beating him half to death.

Fang Qingqing was helpless...

Is this change good or bad?

It seems like it should be considered good.

But it's just too embarrassing.

Just as Fang Qingqing was thinking this, Gangzi suddenly took a bright red fruit from beside Chen Fan and put it in the goblin's hand.

"Oh my god!"

The goblin cried out again, "Gangzi, do you still remember that I love eating 'Red Mist Fruit' the most?"

"I'm so touched!"

Everyone got goosebumps.

Even Chen Fan scratched his head.

This goblin is becoming more and more like the steward of this group of beast tamers.

However, this is indeed a good thing.

With so many tamed beasts, each one unruly and with all sorts of strange tempers, we really need someone like this to act as a stabilizing force.

Chen Fan pushed the plate of red mist fruits in front of the orange cat to the goblin: "Little Goblin, here you go. You like red mist fruits, so you can have them all."

The orange cat roared, "Melee! That's my Red Mist Fruit!"

Everyone glanced at the orange cat and remained silent.

Why does this fat cat's voice sound so old?

Shen Hongxiu's Illusion King Azure Python Golden Horned Beast can also talk, but its voice is the same as a little girl's.

Xiao Hei can also talk, and his voice is a bit strange, but if you listen carefully, he looks like a boy.

But the orange cat, which looked young, had an old voice and a very mature tone.

"Tsk!"

Chen Fan said, "What are you doing eating so many Red Mist Fruits, you're just an orange cat?"

The orange cat roared, "The Red Mist Fruit is a wood-attribute spiritual fruit, I am a wood-attribute, and goblins are also wood-attribute... Goblins benefit from eating it, and I benefit from eating it too!"

Chen Fan blinked. He usually cared more about the orange cat's identity as the "Old Master" and had actually forgotten that the orange cat was a wood element cat.

"Hey, wait a minute!"

Chen Fan was taken aback and said, "Why is there only one Red Mist Fruit on each of our seats, but you have a whole plate of them in front of you?"

Xiao Hei on the other side looked up and said, "This guy stole it from the warehouse."

"I just saw him come out with a plate of red mist fruit in his mouth, and I thought Uncle Dong had prepared it for him."

The orange cat blinked and looked up: "Look! A shooting star!"

Apart from Chu Xuan and Chen Fan, everyone else subconsciously raised their heads.

The orange cat turned around and tried to run away, but instead jumped onto the old blind man.

The man and the cat fell to the ground with a thud.

The old blind man was furious. He picked up his cane from the ground and started hitting the orange cat on the head.

But the orange cat was fast; it disappeared into the forest in a flash.

Chu Xuan stood up and helped the old blind man back to his seat.

"Huh? What are you all standing there for? Eat it all."

Chen Fan pushed the plate full of Red Mist Fruit towards the goblin again.

The goblin looked at Chen Fan without saying a word.

This red mist fruit is very precious.

Even in Chen Fan's position, there was originally only one.

The orange cat was also stolen from the warehouse.

"I...I..."

The goblin's tongue suddenly became a little clumsy.

Chen Fan smiled slightly and said, "Eat it all. This will be very beneficial for improving your strength."

Gangzi nodded repeatedly.

Fang Qingqing glanced at Chen Fan, pursed her lips, and said with a smile, "Xiao Bu, Chen Fan gave it to you, so just eat it."

"Thank you!" The goblin gently took the plate.

Chu Xuan suddenly said, "Chen Fan, when you rushed out of the room just now, did you use Lightning Flash?"

"No," Chen Fan said without looking up. "You're seeing things."

Chu Xuan frowned: "Impossible, I clearly saw it..."

Chen Fan rolled his eyes: "Are you crazy?! You have to nitpick over something I just use a skill?"

The old blind man tilted his head slightly toward Chen Fan.

Ye Hao said, somewhat speechless, "Chu Xuan, are you still asleep? Brother Fan is already at the third rank and can use the Beast Taming skill."

"Is it strange that he used lightning?"

"On the way to Shanghai, we encountered an enemy who used lightning strikes countless times."

Chu Xuan stopped talking and lowered his head to drink his porridge.

Chen Fan glared at Li Fengxing with a hint of annoyance.

This simpleton almost let him expose a secret.

Being able to copy the skills of beast taming onto oneself is even more terrifying than entering the beast taming space oneself.

Even if someone discovers that you've entered the Beast Taming Space, you can always cover it up later using "Space Martial Arts" or "Beast Taming Space Skills".

After all, some strange beasts do possess spatial abilities.

But to copy the skills of beast taming onto oneself...

This almost completely overturned everyone's understanding!

Both Beastmasters and Star Warriors require special training in any of their martial arts techniques.

Although beast tamers can borrow the skills of their beasts, there are very significant limitations.

Directly copying the skills of beast taming is truly astonishing.

……

After finishing breakfast, the group sent their beasts back to their taming space and headed towards Shanghai's No. 1 Martial Arts University.

The First Military Academy is not far from this new home.

There are only three main streets separating them.

The group traveled all the way without even needing to take a car.

Zhang Hai's "Shop No. 9," which he opened under his own name, is located 300 meters to the left of Chen Fan's new house.

Whether it's going to school or raising animals, it's incredibly convenient.

Chen Fan was very satisfied with and grateful for his master's arrangements.

"Hey! Brother Fan, look, it's Shangguan Wulei!"

Ye Hao suddenly pointed to the left of everyone.

In the woods not far from the gate of Shanghai's No. 1 Martial Arts University, Shangguan Canglong's cousin, Shangguan Wulei, was "ganging up" on five thugs.

Beside them, there was a little girl who looked about fifteen or sixteen years old.

A crowd of people had gathered around.

"Bang bang bang!"

Shangguan Wulei kicked the thugs in the groin.

The screams of the five thugs startled Chen Fan and Ye Hao, who instinctively covered their groins.

That's too brutal...

Some time ago in Donghai City, Chen Fan and his group had fought with Shangguan Wulei.

Although Shangguan Wulei's cultivation level is not weak and his fighting style is very fierce, he is not this ruthless.

They're kicking at a person's lower body, as if they're trying to kill them off.

Chen Fan couldn't stand it anymore and stepped forward to advise, "Even if they're thugs, you can beat them to a pulp. There's no need to kick them so hard in that spot, is there?"

Shangguan Wulei glanced at Chen Fan, then stepped on one of the thugs' groin.

The pig-like screams sent a chill down the spines of the men around them.

A man nearby explained, "These thugs bullied a sixteen-year-old girl, not only stealing her things but also trying to undress her... This is right next to the First Martial Arts University! They've got some nerve!"

With a roar, Li Fengxing charged out, unsheathed his greatsword, and slashed at one of the thugs.

Ye Hao was startled and rushed forward, blocking Li Fengxing's greatsword with his axe: "Are you crazy! You're killing someone outside the First Martial Arts University on your very first day here?"

The five thugs were terrified and turned pale.

The students of the First Martial Arts University can all be called geniuses among geniuses.

But after all these years, no one has dared to kill someone near the school!

This is Shanghai!

That kid actually wielded a greatsword and slashed straight at me!

madman!

Chen Fan shook his head, took two steps forward, and said coldly, "Aren't you going to get lost?"

The thugs scrambled away, clutching their crotches as they fled.

They managed to run so fast even after being kicked several times by Shangguan Wulei; it must have been quite an achievement for them.

After comforting the little girl for a couple of minutes, Shangguan Wulei returned and greeted Shen Hongxiu and the others.

Then, she looked at Chen Fan and said with a half-smile, "You're going to report for duty today, so you'd better be careful."

Chen Fan was taken aback: "Be careful of what?"

Shangguan Wulei said, "You haven't even arrived in Shanghai yet, and you've already become a prominent figure at the First Martial Arts University."

"Those upperclassmen, having heard about your battle of wits and courage against the Nightmare Court, are now eager to try their hand at it and have a good spar with you!"

Ye Hao scoffed and said, "A senior student? How impressive are they?"

"Back in the secret realm of Donghai City, Brother Fan encountered a sophomore named Chiyoko. Brother Fan completely subdued her and even extorted tens of millions from her!"

Shangguan Wulei: "..."

Chen Fan blinked: "Damn, I almost forgot about that!"

"I was originally waiting for Chiyoko to bring the money over."

"Then the insect swarm happened, and I forgot about it."

"I hope Chiyoko didn't die in the insect swarm?"

"No Tears, help me find out which martial arts university Chiyoko attends."

"I'm going to ask her for the money."

"Even a mosquito's leg is meat, and forty million is still money!"

Shangguan Wulei: "..."

After a moment of silence, Shangguan Wulei asked somewhat uncertainly, "Forty million... Happy Beans?"

"What nonsense is this?" Chen Fan frowned. "Alliance Coins, the universal currency of Earth."

Shangguan Wulei was petrified.
