Beast Taming: Bloodline Golden Hand-Chapter 643 - 429: A Battle Between the Human Race and the Divine Race Is Inevitable! (Part 2)

Chapter 643: Chapter 429: A Battle Between the Human Race and the Divine Race Is Inevitable! (Part 2)

The giant beast’s forward momentum abruptly halted, and its immense body, as if drained of all power, crumbled with a thunderous crash, transforming back into countless free-floating arcs of karmic fire.

The sixth trial thunderbolt followed closely, its power surging to its peak, morphing into a terrifying black lightning as thin as an arm, dense as black jade, and filled with countless wailing souls screaming and flickering within!

Wherever it passed, the space faintly bore tiny cracks!

This time, Qin Shaoshao slightly furrowed her brows, seemingly sensing the extraordinariness of this strike.

She raised her hands, her ten fingers blossoming like orchids, the immense life energy and spiritual power highly concentrated, forming a budding green lotus flower’s shadow in front of her.

The destructive black lightning struck precisely at the lotus bud’s tip!

Time seemed to freeze for an instant.

In the next moment, the green lotus bloomed layer by layer, each petal unfolding and sending out a gentle yet resilient green ripple, fiercely colliding with the destructive black lightning.

The piercing screech of energy reverberated across the heavens and earth!

Finally, as the green lotus bloomed to its seventh layer, that terrifying black trial thunderbolt was completely purified.

The tribulation clouds in the sky slowly dispersed, revealing a clear sky, as if the previous apocalyptic destruction was merely an illusion realm.

A pure wave of spiritual qi from heaven and earth flowed back down, merging into Qin Shaoshao’s body, with a small portion sprinkling down onto a cauldron below.

Qin Shaoshao gently descended, her aura becoming increasingly harmonious and restrained, and in the depths of her emerald eyes, the faint shadow of a towering ancient tree flickered.

Lin Chen pressed his forehead, realizing Qin Shaoshao’s power was becoming more terrifying.

He then turned to the cauldron, "Is the elixir ready?"

Liu Gu rushed forward, carefully opening the cauldron lid.

Instantly, an indescribable exotic fragrance spread out, invigorating and stirring the spiritual power within with just a whiff.

At the bottom of the cauldron, two elixirs the size of dragon eyes, with a dark golden hue and Phoenix flame-flowing patterns on their surface, lay quietly.

The Karma Fire Pill, completed!

Liu Gu picked them up and glanced, exclaiming with delight, "The color looks quite good."

The Great Elder also nodded repeatedly, acknowledging the superior quality.

Curiously, Lin Chen picked them up and examined them, finally asking the Great Elder, "Should we let Xiao Hong take them directly?"

"Absolutely not," the Great Elder said. "This Karma Fire Pill is too violent; even Xiao Hong may not withstand it."

"What should we do then?" Lin Chen asked.

"We need to go to a place with low temperature...."

The Great Elder said, "In the Western Regions, there is a high mountain ice lake you can go to."

"But..." Lin Chen worriedly said, "what if the Ancient Race attacks."

"That’s true...." The Great Elder pondered for a moment, then said, "How about this, Xiao Hong takes one pill, and Chairman Lee and the Fire Spirit split one."

"Chairman Lee can take them there, and you and Xiaobai can stay at the Spirit Academy."

Lin Chen thought it over and agreed.

The Fire Spirit just recently gained intelligence, and taking a whole elixir would indeed be inappropriate.

With half of Lee Zhen’s bloodline still Human Race, and having just recently upgraded, he also shouldn’t take too much of the Karma Fire Pill, so splitting one is just right.

Moreover, having Lee Zhen to oversee them puts Lin Chen at ease.

After all, Lee Zhen’s current strength is formidable.

Finally, they found Lee Zhen to explain the situation, and the Great Elder provided the location.

The snow-capped mountain isn’t far away; it should take about half a day to reach.

"Then we’ll set off first," Lee Zhen said.

Lin Chen nodded and instructed the Little Fox, saying, "Xiao Hong, with me and Xiaobai not around, you are now the boss. Look after the Fire Spirit."

Xiao Hong nodded solemnly.

Ever since following Lin Chen, Xiao Hong is almost never apart from him. Although reluctant now, it understands....

Lin Chen and the Spirit Academy both need its strength.

.....

Meanwhile, in the Divine Race Territory, within an ancient and magnificent Divine Hall.

The atmosphere was solemn, with representatives from various Divine Race clans gathered; Gu Zhong and Gu Su from the Ancient Clan sat in the front row.

Constantly, more people arrived, sitting next to Gu Zhong and Gu Su was Xuanyuan Zhou.

The four major families of the Divine Race are: Dragon Race - Xuanyuan Clan, Phoenix Clan - Gu Clan, Qilin Clan - Jiang Clan, Divine Tiger Clan - Ji Clan.

Among the Divine Race, they lead, making it essentially the decision of four families.

"The Human Race’s Spirit Academy openly provokes Divine Race’s dignity, slaying our Ancient Clan elders and forming alliances to resist; their crime is punishable by death!"

When everyone arrived, Gu Zhong’s voice was deep and cold, echoing through the Divine Hall,

"Today we gather to discuss how to impose the most thorough punishment on the Human Race, to restore the dignity of the Divine Race!"

"The Ancient Clan has lost two elders; we deeply regret it," said Ji Din, an elder of the Divine Tiger Clan. "But Elder Gu Zhong, don’t be too hasty."

"The sacrifice of the Ancient Clan has given us a model, determining the strength of the opponent."

"I believe we cannot underestimate the Human Race."

"Hmph! The inferior Human Race from the lower realm, what can they achieve even if united?" Elder Jiang Dong of the Qilin Clan sneered. "Could it be the Ancient Clan is just too weak, making them seem strong?"

"What do you mean?" Gu Zhong stood up directly.

There are conflicts between the Ancient Clan and the Qilin Clan.

So-called ’fire and fire do not coexist,’ both clans master flames and frequently compare.

"Enough," Xuanyuan Zhou spoke.

The Dragon Race has long been the big brother within the Divine Race; even though not officially dictated, the Xuanyuan Clan has been the most authoritative.

"If we’re deciding to attack externally, let’s unite, and avoid internal conflicts," said Xuanyuan Zhou.

Everyone glanced at each other, but all calmed down.

"If we agree to the century-long agreement, this matter can be settled." Xuanyuan Zhou said, "We could also acquire more resources; Celestial Capital has already mentioned this...."

Gu Zhong grew anxious at this,

Xuanyuan Zhou continued, "But I think the defeat of the Ancient Clan has reminded us; we’ve been growing stronger, but the Human Race has been getting stronger all the while."

"So, even if not for the dragon vein, we still must fight."

Everyone’s pupils shrank.

Xuanyuan Zhou implied reorganizing the Human Race forces.

This topic has been discussed multiple times within the Divine Race.

Back in the days, the founders of the Divine Race warned that the continuous power source of the Divine Race stemmed from the Human Race.

Thus, the Divine Race must never destroy the Human Race and cut off our roots.

Otherwise, the inevitable fate of downfall awaits the Divine Race.

This is also why the Divine Race hasn’t targeted the dragon vein all these years.

Once the dragon vein is cut off, the Human Race has no hope at all.

But now things have changed, Zhong Nan’s Eight Trigrams and Nine City Plan is indeed intimidating.

After reaching a decision to battle, discussions commenced eagerly.

Finally, following a heated debate, consensus was reached within the Divine Hall.

"If that’s the case," Xuanyuan Zhou stood up and declared, "From this moment, the Divine Race Alliance officially declares war on the Human Race!"

"Each clan will immediately assemble elite forces, planning war strategies, letting the lowly Human Race know, their survival depends on our whim."

....

Meanwhile, in the Divine Race Territory, inside an ancient and magnificent Divine Hall.

The atmosphere was solemn and grave, as representatives from various Divine Race families gathered, including Gu Chong and Gu Su from the Ancient Race seated in the front row.

From time to time, more people entered the hall, sitting next to Gu Chong and them was Xuanyuan Zhou.

The four major families of the Divine Race are: Dragon Race - Xuanyuan Clan, Phoenix Clan - Gu Clan, Qilin Clan - Jiang Clan, Divine Tiger Clan - Ji Clan.

Within the Divine Race, they take the lead, forming a council of four families.

"The Human Race Spirit Academy openly challenges the dignity of the Divine Race, slays our Ancient Clan elder, and allies to resist us; such treason deserves severe punishment!"

Once everyone settled, Gu Chong’s voice, deep and frosty, echoed through the Divine Hall,

"Today, I have gathered you all to discuss how to deliver the most complete punishment to the Human Race and restore the majesty of the Divine Race!"

"The loss of two Ancient Clan elders is a great regret for us," said an elder of the Divine Tiger Clan, Ji Ding, "But Elder Gu Chong, let’s not be hasty."

"The sacrifice of the Ancient Clan has given us an example, showing us the strength of our enemy."

"I believe we should not underestimate the Human Race."

"Hmph! Mere low-realm Human Race, no matter how united, what good could they do?" Qilin Clan elder Jiang Dong laughed coldly. "Could it be that the Ancient Clan was just too weak, making them appear strong?"

"What do you mean?" Gu Chong stood up abruptly.

There is tension between the Ancient Clan and the Qilin Clan.

The so-called ’fire and fire don’t get along,’ both Divine Races are proficient in fire, and there are often comparisons made between them.

"Enough." Xuanyuan Zhou spoke out.

The Dragon Race has always been the big brother in the Divine Race; although not officially stipulated, the Xuanyuan Clan has always been the most authoritative.

"If we decide to engage externally, let’s be united and don’t engage in infighting," said Xuanyuan Zhou.

The crowd looked at each other, then calmed down.

"If we agree to the century agreement, we can let the matter go," Xuanyuan Zhou said. "Yet, the Ancient Clan’s defeat has reminded us that while we’re growing stronger, so is the Human Race."

"Therefore, even if it’s not just for the dragon vein, we must fight."

The pupils of everyone shrank.

Xuanyuan Zhou implied that it was time to reset the dynamics of the Human Race.

This point, the Divine Race has understood; the Human Race and the Divine Race were inevitably going to clash.

"Given the situation, we must make plans...."
