Beast Taming: Invincible Breeder-Chapter 466 - 451: Variables

The Spring Clan Leader felt more and more uneasy, as if he sensed that the Spring Breeze Ancestor was being controlled by someone.

"How could the Spring Breeze Ancestor be controlled? He has lived for countless years, hasn’t he?"

The exact lifespan of the Spring Wind Emperor was a secret even within the Four Seasons Spring Family.

Didn’t the Four Seasons Spring Family record the Ancestor’s age? They did, but the Spring Wind Emperor disliked others recording his age, so he would order the recorded information to be erased.

The Four Seasons Spring Family rose to prominence at the beginning of the Human Race era, and the Spring Wind Emperor might be from that era. However, the Spring Clan Leader thought that possibility was small; no matter how proficient one is at extenuating life, there’s always a limit, right?

"The Spring Breeze Ancestor has lived long and is quite powerful. In the past, the old president visited the Spring Family but returned empty-handed. How could someone so strong be controlled? I must be overthinking it, my mind really loves to think nonsense."

The Spring Clan Leader comforted himself thus, yet his feet involuntarily quickened their pace.

After taking a few steps, a gentle breeze met him head-on.

"How can there be wind in a tunnel fifty thousand meters underground?"

Subsequently, his expression shifted from puzzlement to confusion, then back to puzzlement.

"Huh? What was I thinking just now? Seems like I forgot something, whatever it is, I must hurry and urge Chun Yufan to kill Li Cunxu and complete the task the Ancestor set for the capture."

After the Spring Clan Leader left, in the dark secret chamber, the expression of the Spring Wind Emperor became ferocious, his clenched fists causing veins to bulge all over.

A dragon’s head slowly extended out from the darkness behind the Spring Wind Emperor.

"Oh, this junior of yours has some skills, able to briefly break free of my control and relay a message to that little fellow."

"Wait a minute, why do I detect a very decayed scent from you?"

"You are not the Spring Wind Emperor; you are the founding ancestor of the Four Seasons Spring Family, the ’Spring Emperor’, someone from the early Human Race era who managed to live until now. Let me see what’s going on here."

"So that’s it, absorbing the lifespan of your contracted Spring Beasts, absorbing the lifespans of the Emperor Spring Beasts nurtured by family disciples, lingering on until now, Spring Emperor huh~ more like Spring Demon."

The Spring Emperor asked, "Who are you?"

"Me? I’m just a miserable bug who can barely glimpse at fate."

The Spring Emperor said, "With such strength, you’re no miserable bug. If you’re willing, you could divide the world into thirds with the Four Gods and the Alliance. If you have this intention, there’s no need to control me; I would support you wholeheartedly."

"You’re more pitiful than I am; you understand nothing."

The Spring Emperor: "Understand what?"

"The wave of the era is coming, two variables have emerged."

The Spring Emperor: "Variables?"

"Variables that cannot be monitored by fate, capable of changing the world."

The Spring Emperor: "This variable you’re talking about, is it the president of the Four Gods and the Alliance?"

"That’s why I say you’re pitiful and ignorant. The Four Gods? Are they even worthy of being called variables? They’re just four fat sheep about to enter a wolf’s den."

The Spring Emperor was taken aback, as in its mouth, the Four Gods seemed so pathetic.

"The Four Gods aren’t variables either? Are you trying to be mysterious?"

"Pitiful, tragic, do you know why all the deities died? Do you know why no one became a deity in the Human Race era?"

The Spring Emperor: "The deities died in an internal war, as for the inability to become a deity in the Human Race era, it’s because the Titan Divine King of the Age of Giants cut off the path to godhood."

"Deities dying in an internal war? Ha, what kind of internal war results in not a single deity surviving? What’s the hidden truth behind the Titan Divine King cutting off the path to godhood?"

The Spring Emperor: "I’m about to become your puppet, so speak."

Its voice was melancholic.

"I can’t say, I can’t say, it’s an ultimate taboo, it can cause death, those who speak of it will die, those who hear it will die."

The Spring Emperor: "You say the Four Gods aren’t variables? Then who are?"

"The old president, that person; I grow increasingly unable to fathom him, increasingly wary."

The Spring Emperor: "Two variables, who’s the other?"

"I don’t know."

The Spring Emperor said in surprise, "Isn’t it that Li Cunxu?"

"Haha, you actually thought he was a variable, the Four Gods aren’t worthy, and he is?"

The Spring Emperor: "If not him, why do you control me and use the Four Seasons Spring Family to kill him?"

"He has a Slime, and that Slime comprehended the Myriad Phenomena Law. Recently, I’ve noticed that Slime growing a bit fast, King Nine level, but it’s stuck with a Beast Master holding it back, greatly slowing its growth pace. I need to help it cut off the wings that curb its growth."

Hearing about the Myriad Phenomena Law, the Spring Emperor understood everything.

The Myriad Phenomena Law is a treasure, something every emperor desires.

"Spring Demon, you actually got it wrong, I don’t control you to get the Four Seasons Spring Family to kill him, you should have guessed what my power is."

The Spring Emperor said solemnly, "You have mastered fate, yet the world has never heard of a powerhouse like you, who on earth are you, and if you don’t need to control me to manipulate the Spring Family, why do you anyway?"

"Variables are approaching, the fate of all beings is becoming harder to decipher. In this wave that no one can escape, I too should lay down more pieces, to set more chips for a comeback later."

"Apologies, it’s been too long since I’ve conversed with anyone, my words became too many."

The Spring Emperor felt a sinking feeling inside, despair welled up; he felt the control from the other deepening, he’d forever become a puppet. He, the dignified Spring Emperor, surviving countless eras, one of the strongest emperors in the world, was silently controlled, unable to turn it around.

The Spring Emperor yearned to erupt and fight to the death, but the opponent seemed to see through him, giving him no chance to erupt.

...

"Ah, the reward from the Ancient Colosseum is just this, isn’t it a bit stingy?" White Spider remarked upon seeing the prizes.

The reward from the Ancient Colosseum for Li Cunxu was a drop of Blazing Phoenix’s lord-level blood essence, only the size of a little finger.

The drop wasn’t precious, only a common lord-level resource; although it’s Blazing Phoenix’s blood, the providing Blazing Phoenix was squeezed when its potential ran out, and the level wasn’t high, also this Blazing Phoenix was a mixed-feathered Phoenix with super thin Phoenix bloodline.

Not to mention, the amount of blood given was minimal.

Defeating a peak King-level Beast Master, just to receive this, it indeed seems inadequate.

Jiang Lingyun said, "Is it because the Ancient Colosseum found the boss’s opponent too weak, so it gave a lesser reward?"

Li Cunxu said, "The Ancient Colosseum’s rewards are said to be random, but not entirely so. The Colosseum has its own consciousness, it actually rewards according to its likings, giving me poor rewards means it finds me distasteful."

Li Cunxu could roughly guess the reason, as the Black Flame Horse finished its task too soon, leaving no viewing experience.

However... Li Cunxu was still somewhat displeased, being forcibly put into a duel, winning, and then receiving a few drops of lord blood as a reward, such a perfunctory and insulting prize.

Li Cunxu asked, "White Spider, can you trace the location of the Ancient Colosseum along my karmic line?"

White Spider closed its eyes for a moment, then answered, "I’ve already confirmed the location."

Li Cunxu replied, "Good, when we reach Emperor-level, we’ll dominate the Colosseum and snatch its treasures."

The Ancient Colosseum stores a vast amount of ancient items, all of which are treasures.

However, Li Cunxu still felt a bit peeved, it was like knocking out a heavy-weight boxing champion, then the organizer who forcibly dragged him into the fight only handed him an ice cream as a reward.

Upon seeing Chi Xiaoxiong, Li Cunxu suddenly thought of a way to both retaliate against the Ancient Colosseum and fleece it.
