Beast Taming Star Journey

Chapter 410

The colossal beast slowly raised its head, its enormous eyes gleaming with a chilling, eerie light. Its massive body began to tremble, and the surrounding dark energy, as if drawn by a magnet, converged upon it frantically. I felt an immense pressure, as if a mountain were pressing down on my chest, making it almost impossible to breathe. It let out a low, guttural roar, a whisper from hell that sent shivers down my spine. "You… how dare you…"

Before it could finish speaking, I moved. I couldn't give it any chance to breathe; I had to deliver a fatal blow before its power was fully gathered! I poured all my strength into the weapon in my hand, becoming one with my tamed beasts, whose power flowed into my body in turn. We became one, transforming into a dazzling light, like a shooting star streaking across the night sky, charging headlong into the behemoth's weakness.

Everything around me seemed to slow down. I could clearly feel the wind whistling in my ears, and I could see the terror and despair flashing in the giant beast's eyes. I could feel my power constantly rising, reaching an unprecedented peak. I felt as if I had transformed into a war god, fearless and unstoppable.

"boom!"

With a deafening roar, my attack struck the behemoth's weak point. In that instant, I felt as if I had crashed into an indestructible wall, and a powerful recoil sent me flying. I landed heavily on the ground, feeling as if every bone in my body had shattered.

I struggled to my feet, my vision blurred and my ears ringing. I tried to make out what was happening, but the giant beast had vanished. In its place was a dazzling light and a gradually dissipating dark power.

Could it be... that I succeeded?

Just as I was wondering, the Beastmaster of Metal and Iridium walked over with his men. His face was filled with shock and disbelief, and his eyes were filled with complex emotions.

"You...you really did it?" he murmured to himself, as if he still couldn't accept the reality.

The strategist stepped forward, bowed deeply to me, and said, "Thank you for your bravery; you saved us all."

The gold-plated boy looked at me with admiration, his eyes sparkling with excitement.

The mercury messengers and thallium warriors also expressed their respect to me, and their faces showed expressions of relief.

I took a deep breath, trying to calm my excited heart. I looked at Su Yao; she was running towards me…

"Nong Yu!" she called out... Su Yao, like a light swallow, excitedly flew into my arms. I could feel her chest heaving, each movement hitting my chest. Her warm breath sprayed onto my face, carrying a hint of a young girl's fragrance. "You're so wonderful, my love," she said coquettishly, her eyes filled with love and...desire. That look made my heart flutter, a warm current flowing through my body. Then, she tiptoed and gently planted a kiss on my cheek. The soft touch was like a feather brushing against me, yet it carried an undeniable warmth.

At that moment, I felt as if I were floating on clouds, light and dreamlike. All the weariness and pain vanished in that instant. I held her tightly, feeling her warmth, her heartbeat, and her breath.

However, this good atmosphere did not last long.

Suddenly, a deafening roar shattered the brief silence. My heart tightened, and I whirled around to see that the beast tamed by the Metal-Iridium Beast Tamer—the enormous, ferocious-looking bear—had gone out of control once more! It was wildly swinging its massive paws, smashing everything around it to pieces.

"What's going on?!" I exclaimed, a sense of foreboding rising in my heart.

The beast tamer, pale and sweating profusely, desperately tried to control his beast, but to no avail. "I...I don't know! It suddenly..." he stammered, his eyes filled with fear and despair.

Then I remembered that this giant bear had lost control once before during a previous battle, almost causing a major disaster. I never expected that at this crucial moment, it would make the same mistake again!

The bear's out-of-control behavior caused chaos. People scattered in panic, fearing they would be smashed into mincemeat by its massive paws. The Platinum Strategist, the Gold Youth, the Mercury Messenger, and others were also startled by the sudden turn of events and retreated to avoid it.

My heart sank to the bottom. This out-of-control giant bear would undoubtedly be our greatest threat. Its immense strength was enough to destroy all our efforts, and even... make us fail completely!

I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself down. This was not the time to panic; I had to find a way to control this out-of-control bear, or the consequences would be unimaginable.

I looked at Su Yao, whose eyes were also filled with worry, but she did not back down. Instead, she held my hand tightly, giving me strength.

“We’ll solve it together!” she said firmly.

I nodded, a resolute glint in my eyes.

Just then, the thallium warrior suddenly stepped forward. He walked up to the giant bear and roared, "Beast, how dare you act so presumptuously here!"

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly threw a punch, slamming it hard onto the giant bear's head.

With a loud bang, the giant bear's massive body was actually knocked back several steps by his punch!

I was shocked; I hadn't expected this thallium warrior to be so powerful!

The thallium warrior did not stop, but continued his fierce attack on the giant bear. Every punch and kick he delivered contained immense power, as if he wanted to tear the giant bear to pieces.

The giant bear let out painful roars, but it was unable to withstand the attacks of the thallium warriors.

As I watched this scene, a glimmer of hope rose within me. Perhaps, we really could…

"Nong Yu, watch out!" Su Yao suddenly shouted.

I turned around suddenly and saw...

Su Yao's shout startled me. I turned around abruptly and saw that the dark behemoth, which had been repelled earlier, had somehow stood up again. Its scarlet eyes were fixed on me, and it was letting out a low roar, as if gathering some terrifying power. "Oh no! It's going to fight to the death!" I thought to myself, instinctively shielding Su Yao behind me.

The behemoth moved even faster than I had imagined. Its massive body leaped forward, crashing down on me like a small mountain. I quickly activated my beast-taming power, and the azure light on my body surged, attempting to withstand this overwhelming blow.

"Boom!" The deafening noise made me feel like I had been hit by a mountain and thrown away. My internal organs felt displaced, and a metallic taste rose in my throat.

"Nong Yu!" Su Yao exclaimed and quickly helped me up.

I gritted my teeth against the excruciating pain, struggled to my feet, wiped the blood from the corner of my mouth, and stared resolutely at the behemoth. I cannot fall! I still have people I must protect!

At that moment, the thallium warrior arrived. He glanced at my injuries and frowned, asking, "Can you still fight?"

I took a deep breath and nodded: "Okay!"

The thallium warrior didn't say much, just patted me on the shoulder, then turned and faced the behemoth again. I knew he was buying me time.

I strained to stay awake. The beast's attack was fierce, but it also revealed a weakness—a scale on its belly was a lighter color, suggesting it was less defensive.

This is an opportunity! A glint of light flashed in my eyes as I said to Su Yao, "Cover me!"

Su Yao immediately understood what I meant. She flashed and stood between me and the giant beast, her long sword dancing to form an impenetrable net of swords that blocked all of the giant beast's attacks.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, I took a deep breath, concentrated all the beast-taming power in my body into one point, and then threw a punch that hit the light-colored scale on the belly of the giant beast.

"Aow—" The giant beast let out a shrill scream, and its massive body crashed to the ground, kicking up clouds of dust.

The dust settled, and I looked at the giant beast lying motionless on the ground, finally letting out a sigh of relief. We won!

The people around us cheered, celebrating this hard-won victory. The Beastmaster, Jin Yi, was so moved that tears welled in his eyes. He walked up to me and tightly grasped my hand: "Thank you, Nong Yu! You saved us all!"

The Platinum Strategist, the Gold Youth, the Mercury Envoy, and others all expressed their gratitude to me. Even the usually taciturn Thallium Warrior nodded slightly to me, his eyes filled with approval.

Su Yao walked to my side and hugged me tightly, her joy overflowing: "We finally won!"

I gently stroked her hair, my heart filled with happiness and contentment.

However, just as we were basking in the joy of victory, I suddenly sensed an unusual energy fluctuation emanating from around the battlefield. This fluctuation... was unfamiliar, and yet incredibly powerful.

"What...what is this?" I looked at Su Yao, only to find that her face was also full of confusion.

Suddenly, the thallium warrior's expression changed, and he said in a deep voice, "Not good! Something's coming!"
