Beast Taming Star Journey

“It seems…” He paused, a strange light flashing in his eyes, “that’s the move we have to use…” As soon as the beast tamer finished speaking, the spinning vortex suddenly stopped, and a suffocating pressure rushed over.

I felt like I was having trouble breathing, as if an invisible hand was choking me.

This power far surpasses any opponent I have ever encountered before.

I forced myself to calm down and quickly mobilized the beast-taming power within my body.

The Crimson Leopard roared, its body engulfed in raging flames; the Frost Serpent coiled its body, exhaling chilling icy mist; the Gale Eagle flapped its wings and soared into the sky, whipping up a gale that formed a barrier.

They are my companions, my support, and my only hope.

The beast tamer pushed his hands forward, and the mysterious power transformed into a black beam of light that shot straight toward me.

It moved so fast that I barely had time to react. Wherever the black beam of light passed, space seemed to distort, crackling and popping.

The shadow of death loomed over me, and I felt a fear I had never felt before.

Am I destined to stop here?

Do not!

I can not be reconciled!

I still have unfulfilled dreams, I still want to protect Su Yao, and I still want to prove myself!

At this critical moment, I felt the surge of beast-taming power within my body. An unprecedented power erupted from the depths of my dantian, breaking through my long-standing bottleneck.

My body felt as if it had been infused with boundless energy, brimming with power.

With a loud "boom," I felt my beast-taming ability had been pushed to its limit!

My tamed beasts also sensed my change. They shone brightly and roared excitedly, facing their tamer's attack with even greater strength.

The Crimson Flame Leopard's flames burned even hotter, the Frost Serpent's mist grew even colder, and the Gale Eagle's speed increased dramatically.

Their power merged with my power, forming an unbreakable barrier.

The black beam of light slammed into the barrier, bursting forth with dazzling light.

I gritted my teeth and did my best to maintain the barrier, resisting this powerful force.

A soft cracking sound came from the barrier... Crack... That slight cracking sound exploded in my heart like a thunderclap.

A small crack appeared on the barrier, spreading rapidly like a spider web.

My heart sank. This was the defense I had built with all my might and after breaking through my limits, yet it still couldn't stop the attack from the Beastmaster!

The black beams of light surged even more fiercely, crashing against my defensive barrier wave after wave like a tidal wave.

I felt my strength rapidly depleting, and my body began to tremble.

The Crimson Flame Leopard let out a painful growl, and the flames on its body became somewhat unstable. The icy mist exhaled by the Frost Serpent also thinned considerably, and the Gale Eagle's wings flapped more slowly.

"Change formation, Xuanwu Formation!" I shouted, and the beasts immediately understood.

The Crimson Flame Leopard and the Frost Serpent quickly intertwined, forming a sturdy shield, while the Gale Eagle hovered above the shield, creating a wall of wind that continuously weakened the power of the black pillar of light.

The Xuanwu Formation is a defensive formation I created based on the characteristics of the beasts I control, combined with ancient military strategy. It can maximize the power of these beasts.

Sure enough, after switching to the Xuanwu Formation, the stability of the barrier was greatly improved, and the spread of cracks was slowed down.

The impact of the black beam of light was still fierce, but it could no longer shake my defense.

"It actually blocked it..." A hint of surprise flashed in the Neon Beastmaster's eyes, but he immediately sneered, "Then let's try this one!"

He pushed forward with both hands again, and the power of the black beam of light intensified once more, like a roaring beast, frantically assaulting my defenses.

I gritted my teeth and poured all my power into the beasts I controlled, maintaining the operation of the Xuanwu Formation.

The barrier trembled violently, groaning under the strain, yet it stubbornly stood firm.

I feel like my body has reached its limit, every nerve is taut and could break down at any moment.

Just then, I felt a warm power coming from behind me and flowing into my body.

I turned my head and saw Su Yao standing behind me, her hands on my back, continuously transferring her strength to me.

"Nong Yu, you're amazing." Her voice was gentle yet firm, full of admiration and encouragement.

Her gaze was intense and bright, like the brightest star in the night sky.

A warm current surged through my heart, and an unprecedented power filled my entire body.

I sensed that the beasts' power had also been replenished; they let out excited roars, and their defensive power was strengthened once again.

The impact of the black beam of light was still fierce, but my defense was as solid as a rock, and no matter how it attacked, it could not budge it in the slightest.

The Beastmaster's expression turned somewhat grim; he seemed not to have expected me to be so tenacious.

He gave me a deep look, a strange glint in his eyes.

Suddenly, the smile on his face vanished, replaced by a cold expression.

He slowly raised his hands, muttering incantations, and the surrounding air suddenly became heavy.

“Interesting…” he said softly, a hint of chill in his voice, “Looks like… we’ll have to get serious…”

His steed, the giant black bear that had been roaring behind him, suddenly disappeared... The surroundings were deathly silent, with only the rustling of the wind through the leaves.

Su Yao and I looked around warily, a strange unease enveloping us... The Beast Tamer slowly extended a hand and pointed at me...
