Beast Taming Star Journey

The ground was still trembling, and waves of energy surged through my body, making it almost impossible for me to breathe. I struggled to open my eyes, but everything was blurry; all I could see was Su Yao's anxious face.

"Nongyu! How are you?"

She supported me, her voice filled with worry. I shook my head, trying to clear my head.

The surrounding scenery gradually became clear. We were trapped inside an energy barrier, which flashed with blinding light. Powerful energy fluctuations constantly impacted the barrier, producing a buzzing sound.

The beast tamers around them were also pale-faced, and their beasts appeared listless.

"Damn it, what is this thing?"

I said through gritted teeth, feeling utterly powerless. We were like prey trapped in a cage, at their mercy.

“This is an energy barrier set up by the controller using the core device of the base,” Researcher Zhao’s voice trembled. “It is said that this device can absorb the surrounding energy to form a powerful defensive force that is almost impossible to break through.”

His words made my heart sink to the bottom.

The mayor, his face ashen, paced back and forth. "Is there really no way out? This city..."

"No, there must be a way!"

Su Yao's voice was firm and powerful as she helped me to my feet. "Nong Yu, we will definitely find a breakthrough!"

Her eyes rekindled my hope. I took a deep breath, forcing myself to calm down. That's right, my cheat code! In this moment of crisis, I had completely forgotten about it.

My beast-taming ability is different from others; I can sign equal contracts with beasts and share their power.

I closed my eyes, concentrated, and sensed the energy fluctuations around me. Suddenly, I felt a faint fluctuation that seemed completely out of place with the violent energy around me.

I suddenly opened my eyes and looked towards the corner of the energy barrier, where something seemed to be attracting me.

"over there!"

I pointed to that corner, my voice trembling with excitement, "I sense something's wrong there!"

I quickly summoned my tamed beast—a clever monkey skilled at solving puzzles. Agile and nimble, it swiftly climbed to a corner of the energy barrier.

The monkey's paws tapped lightly on the barrier, its eyes gleaming as if it were analyzing something.

"Squeak!" the monkey suddenly cried out, pointing to a tiny crack in the barrier.

"found it!"

I was overjoyed and immediately told the others about the discovery of the clever monkey.

"really?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Su Yao's eyes, "That's great!"

The beast tamers rallied, their eyes rekindling with hope. I placed my hand on the crack in the barrier and slowly channeled my beast-taming power into it.

The crack began to slowly widen, and a faint trace of energy leaked out from it.

"Let's go together!"

I shouted, "Concentrate your forces and attack this place!"

However, just as the crack was about to widen enough for us to pass through, an even more powerful energy suddenly surged out from it, blasting us back... "Oh no! He's noticed!"

Researcher Zhao cried out in terror... The force of the recoil was like a giant wave that threw us to the ground. I felt as if my internal organs had shifted, and a metallic taste rose in my throat.

Damn it, he actually noticed! The surrounding beast tamers groaned in pain, and their beasts were also affected, lying listlessly on the ground.

I saw despair written all over their faces, and some even began to sob quietly.

“It’s over, everything is over…” a beast tamer muttered to himself, his voice filled with despair.

"No, it's not over yet!"

I struggled to my feet, wiped the blood from the corner of my mouth, and forced myself to remain calm. I couldn't give up—this city, and Su Yao—they were all waiting for me!

"Don't give up, everyone!"

I shouted, "We still have a chance!"

However, my voice sounded so weak that even I couldn't believe it.

Just then, a warm hand gently stroked my face. I turned my head and saw Su Yao.

"Yu, you can do it, I believe in you."

Her eyes were filled with love and trust, like a warm current flowing into my heart, dispelling all fear and despair.

I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself down. I closed my eyes and once again sensed the energy fluctuations around me, attempting to find a new breakthrough.

However, that powerful energy barrier was like an impenetrable fortress. Was there really no way out? My heart was filled with resentment.

Just when I was about to despair, I suddenly felt my tamed beast, the spirit monkey, calling out urgently in my mind.

I quickly focused my attention and tried to communicate with it. "Squeak! Squeak!" The monkey's voice was anxious and excited; it seemed to have discovered something.

Following the monkey's guidance, I looked at the energy barrier again.

This time, I noticed that the energy flow of the barrier was not completely uniform; in a certain area, the energy flow was significantly slower.

Could it be…? A bold idea suddenly surged into my mind. If I could utilize this difference in energy flow, perhaps I could find a new breakthrough!

I told Su Yao my idea, and her eyes lit up as she immediately understood what I meant.

“It’s worth a try!”

Su Yao said firmly. We gathered the beast tamers again and told them my plan.

Although they were still somewhat discouraged, with Su Yao's encouragement, they decided to try again.

I took a deep breath and directed the monkey to climb the energy barrier again. This time, its target was the area where the energy flow was slow.

The monkey moved cautiously, its paws gently tapping on the barrier, sensing the flow of energy.

Suddenly, the monkey stopped, let out a sharp cry, and then slammed its paw against the barrier.

With a loud "boom," the energy barrier trembled violently, and a small crack appeared in the area where the energy flow was slow.

"It's now!"

I shouted and poured all my beast-taming power into the crack. The crack rapidly expanded, and a dazzling light shot out from it, illuminating the entire space.

We broke through the energy barrier, and the sight before us stunned us.

In the very heart of the base, a powerful, malevolent aura permeated the air… as if something was whispering in the air…
