Beast Taming: Bloodline Golden Hand-Chapter 737 - 472: Bull-Riding Deity

Very soon, the Pope came running back, gasping for breath, holding an ancient scroll made from the hide of an unknown beast. The edges of the scroll were tattered and exuded a sense of profound antiquity.

"Divine Lord, Vice Sect Hierarch, this... this is the closely guarded 'Brahma People's Transmission' that is never revealed to outsiders!"

He carefully placed the scroll on the table, as if it were not a book but a priceless treasure that would shatter upon touch.

Xu Feng could no longer contain himself and immediately stepped forward, cautiously unfolding the scroll.

Lin Chen and Lee Zhen also approached curiously.

On the yellowed beast hide, in an ancient and obscure script, was recorded a section of mythical history belonging to the Nanfen Ancient Country.

The content roughly described that in the distant Ancient Times, a cataclysmic "Battle of the Deities" had erupted upon this land:

"Countless powerful deities and monsters clashed here, causing heaven and earth to collapse, sun and moon to lose their light, and the entire world to teeter on the brink of annihilation. Countless beings were reduced to ashes in the flames of war, with people driven to despair.

The people pleaded for salvation from the heavens, but despairingly, even the deities that protected them were caught up in the battle.

In this bleakest moment, one day, a mysterious deity, riding a bull, appeared from the east at dawn.

With immense divine power, that deity subdued all the gods and monsters, ending the catastrophe.

The ancestors of the Nanfen Ancient Country were deeply grateful to this savior and wished to glimpse his true visage, only to find it impossible to discern his appearance, as though shrouded by an eternal mist.

The only thing they could clearly remember was the bull that accompanied the deity, equally unfathomable.

After the great battle, the deity vanished without a trace.

In gratitude, the ancestors of the Nanfen Ancient Country revered the bull as a guardian deity, worshipping it for generations, and thus the divine religion was born."

"Battle of the Deities? Riding a bull?"

Lin Chen, looking at the account in the book, couldn't help but frown slightly.

This history, filled with mythical elements, seemed somewhat ethereal and ungraspable.

The so-called "deity" and "gods" might have been nothing more than the ancient people's limited understanding, resulting in a deification of inexplicable powerful forces.

He looked at Xu Feng and asked, "Can we determine the exact location of the Ancient World based solely on this?"

Xu Feng's eyes sparkled with a near-fanatic gleam as he pointed excitedly to a rough map on the scroll:

"Brother Lin, you're mistaken! With this book and my previous discoveries, I am seventy percent confident in deducing the approximate site of the 'Battle of the Deities'!"

Like a child who had found a treasure, he eagerly explained his theory, his words brimming with longing for the Ancient World.

Seeing his obsession, Lin Chen contemplated for a moment and said no more.

Everyone has their own pursuits, and since Xu Feng had made this his life's goal, Lin Chen found it inappropriate to interfere.

At that moment, the Pope cautiously stepped forward and bowed before asking:

"Divine Lord, shall we choose an auspicious day to hold a grand enthronement ceremony for you? It would be a good opportunity to proclaim your divine might to the world for our believers to witness."

"There's no need." Lin Chen replied without a second thought, directly refusing.

Now that Xiaobai had awakened, he had already achieved his primary objective on this trip and saw no point in wasting time in the Nanfen Ancient Country.

Moreover, the Cangling Ancient Country still had the Divine Race eyeing him covetously.

If he remained absent for long, there was no guarantee that those madmen wouldn't vent their frustrations on Jiuxing City.

What concerned Lin Chen even more was Qin Shaoshao.

It had been some time since the eruption of the Celestial Spirit Body, and Lin Chen now needed to find a solution to this issue.

"You all may leave." Lin Chen waved them off.

The Pope and the others dared not defy him; they bowed respectfully and quietly withdrew.

The palace returned to silence.

Lin Chen turned to Xu Feng and solemnly asked, "We plan to return to the country. Would you like to join us?"

A hint of apologetic smile appeared on Xu Feng's face, yet his eyes were unwavering:

"Brother Lin, thank you for your kind offer. But... I want to stay. I am determined to find it! I am convinced it must exist!"

Since Xu Feng had made his decision, Lin Chen didn't press the matter further, merely patting him on the shoulder:

"Be cautious; while the Alien Race is unreliable, you must take care on your own here."

"Alright!"

That night, after a brief discussion with Lee Zhen, Lin Chen decided to depart for the Cangling Ancient Country the next morning. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

After dinner, Lin Chen returned to the courtyard and couldn't wait to release Xiaobai from the Beast Taming Space.

Having shed its battle form, Xiaobai reverted to its slightly clumsy Plowhorn Beast appearance.

But now, its fur was a richer emerald green, as if sculpted from the finest jade, with ethereal clouds swirling beneath its feet, giving it an extraordinary mystical presence.

"Come, Xiaobai, let me see what changes you've undergone."

Lin Chen's eyes were full of fervent anticipation.

This time, Xiaobai had essentially merged the powers of the "Ancestral Phoenix" and the "Divine Bull Soul"!

Judging by its previous terrifying display of stamping out the Divine Army with a single step, Xiaobai must have undergone a revolutionary transformation!

He gently placed his hand on Xiaobai's head, and with a thought, Xiaobai's detailed information panel clearly appeared before him:

[Name: Cyan Glutton Beast]

[Advanced Divine Beast]

[Level: 97]

[Skill 1: Iron Horn Impact (Divine Enlightenment)]

[Skill 2: Soul-Calming Hoof (Divine Enlightenment)]

[Skill 3: Barbaric Bloodline (Divine Enlightenment)]

[Skill 4: Eternal Damnation Demon Horn (Divine Enlightenment)]

[Skill 5: Demon Bull Appearance (Divine Enlightenment)]

[Skill 6: Divine and Demonic Rampage (Divine Enlightenment)]

[Skill 7: Divine and Demonic Gaze (Divine Enlightenment)]

[Skill 8: Gluttonous True Form (Divine Enlightenment)]

"Hiss—!!!"

Seeing this string of skills with the "Divine Enlightenment" suffix, even though Lin Chen was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but gasp!

All skills, Divine Enlightenment Level!

This was utterly absurd!

After all, enhancing skills is exceedingly difficult.

Each level increase means a geometric multiplication of power!

The skills Xiaobai awakened subsequently underwent a transformation that was extraordinarily hard to achieve.

Like many level ninety-seven Spirit Beasts, if their later skills reached the Perfection Level, it would already be commendable.

It seemed this transformation in Xiaobai was more thorough and formidable than he had imagined!

However, the real surprise was still to come!

Lin Chen's gaze was soon riveted by a new skill listed at the bottom of the skills panel!

Lin Chen's pupils also dilated....

Given the scale of Xiaobai's transformation this time, the newly awakened skill was certainly going to be exceptional.
