All My Beasts are Legendary Chapter 497 - Wan Jinghui, Yao Hongyi, a Treasure in Space
Previously on All My Beasts are Legendary...
The Tongtian continent was where Ye Xuan found himself, guiding Lin Shiru on a tour.
Information he'd gathered indicated that the Tongtian star zone had established a passage to a secret realm within the heavenly universe.
However, this passage was under the control of the Tongtian Council, making it difficult for outsiders to gain immediate access.
Entry was only permitted after the council officially opened the secret realm to those beyond the Tongtian star zone.
The Tongtian Council itself operated under the authority of...
It was known to be governed by five Eternal Level beast tamers.
...
Furthermore, there were over ten Mythic Level beast tamers associated with it.
It was rumored to possess more power than three thousand other star zones.
And that was before.
With the recent emergence of the Immortal Ancient Continent, any significant shifts in the Tongtian Council's structure remained unknown.
This uncertainty left Ye Xuan feeling rather powerless.
His ultimate objective was the Divine Rule Pool located within the Heavenly Universe Secret Realm.
Gaining entry to the Heavenly Universe Secret Realm was an exceedingly rare and challenging feat.
Historically, only about ten to twenty such secret realms had ever existed.
Each Heavenly Universe Secret Realm invariably contained a Divine Rule Pool.
Once this pool matured to a certain stage, a cultivator could drip a drop of blood into it, potentially yielding a rare Heavenly Treasure perfectly suited for the cultivator.
Ye Xuan himself had no need for mystical treasures from the Heavenly Universe.
However, his Dual-winged Tricolor Amber Tyrannosaurus did.
"Ye Xuan, what are we going to do?"
Lin Shiru anxiously inquired.
"Nothing much,"
Ye Xuan replied, shaking his head. "Let's enjoy the local delicacies of the Tongtian Star Zone and then proceed to the Tianyu Star Zone. We can't do anything about the Heavenly Universe Secret Realm for now."
The Tongtian Council operated under the oversight of five Eternal Level beast tamers.
Among these five, one had already reached the Peak Eternal Level.
And this information was outdated.
The current true strength and influence of the Tongtian Council were unknown to anyone.
Even Ye Xuan preferred to avoid antagonizing them if at all possible.
Lin Shiru nodded in agreement.
Being less powerful herself, she couldn't fully comprehend Ye Xuan's capabilities. She only recognized the Tongtian Council as one of the most formidable entities across the three thousand star zones.
She felt a sense of relief that Ye Xuan wasn't directly confronting them.
Nevertheless, she resolved not to interfere with Ye Xuan's decisions.
Even if he chose to undertake a perilous endeavor, she would offer no more than a word of caution.
She intended to seek refuge in the Milky Way, thereby easing Ye Xuan's burdens.
"Let's go sample some of the Tongtian Star Zone's famed cuisine and perhaps meet some old acquaintances."
Ye Xuan gently took Lin Shiru's arm. With a swift movement, he tore open a spatial rift and plunged into another sector.
Utilizing the Tidal Treasure Snail, he detected the presence of two familiar individuals as they neared the Tongtian Continent.
Old friends?
Lin Shiru shot him a puzzled glance.
She couldn't fathom how they might encounter two old friends in this location.
*Whoosh!*
On the Tongtian continent, specifically in the northern region within the Five Heavens Empire's Ancient Dragon City, a modest establishment known as the Red Dust bar became their destination. In an instant, Ye Xuan transported himself and Lin Shiru there.
Passersby bustled along the busy street, yet none seemed to register their sudden appearance.
Upon arrival, Ye Xuan guided Lin Shiru into the small establishment called Red Dust.
"Welcome, esteemed guests."
A staff member greeted them warmly as they stepped inside.
"Lin... Lin Shiru, Ye Xuan?"
Before either of them could fully process the situation, a woman clad in red materialized beside them, her gaze fixed on them with astonishment.
"Yao Hongyi?"
Seeing the woman in red, Lin Shiru's surprise was equally evident.
This woman was Lin Shiru's closest confidante from their time on Cerulean Planet.
Shortly after the Immortal Ancient Continent had formed, Yao Hongyi, like many others, had vanished amidst a shower of starlight.
Lin Shiru had begun to doubt if she would ever have the chance to meet Yao Hongyi again.
She never anticipated they would reunite under such peculiar circumstances.
"Lil Ru, what brings you two here? Have you and Ye Xuan met the same fate as Jinghui and I?"
Yao Hongyi's initial excitement upon seeing Lin Shiru quickly gave way to a look of bewilderment as she regarded both Ye Xuan and Lin Shiru.
*Trod, trod!*
Simultaneously, a tall, robust figure emerged, standing beside Yao Hongyi.
Ye Xuan recognized him instantly; it was Wan Jinghui, Yao Hongyi's boyfriend, whom he had encountered previously at the Divine Nature Palace.
"Brother Wan."
Ye Xuan offered a greeting to Wan Jinghui.
”Ye Xuan, what brings both of you here?” Wan Jinghui appeared visibly surprised at the sight of Ye Xuan and Lin Shiru. However, he rapidly regained his composure and suggested, “Let’s not talk here. We should head upstairs.” Ye Xuan gave a nod of agreement. He then led Lin Shiru upstairs with Wan Jinghui and Yao Hongyi. As they ascended, Yao Hongyi held Lin Shiru’s arm, engaging in continuous conversation. Ye Xuan was already aware that individuals from the Imperial World capable of reincarnation in this realm would experience a partial awakening of their memories from the Imperial World. Nevertheless, these were merely fragmented recollections, as the memories from their previous lives remained intact. Generally, their personalities from their past lives would also be preserved, with no drastic alterations upon reincarnation. This explained Yao Hongyi's extreme surprise and elation upon encountering Lin Shiru, a sentiment that Lin Shiru naturally reciprocated.
”Ye Xuan, you mentioned you’ve already broken through to the Mythic Level? And now you can traverse the Milky Way and the three thousand star zones?” After posing this question in the room, Yao Hongyi’s eyes widened in astonishment, and she gazed at Ye Xuan with disbelief. ”Ye Xuan, are you absolutely certain you aren't like us? That you didn’t reincarnate from the Imperial World?” Yao Hongyi fixed her gaze on Ye Xuan. Wan Jinghui, equally stunned, also looked toward Ye Xuan. ”I am certain,” Ye Xuan replied with a chuckle. “However, I’ve encountered numerous opportunities. Currently, I am the true transmission disciple of the Dragon Palace of the Azure Sea, and one of my beasts is the Golden Dragon of Luck.” Upon hearing Ye Xuan’s declaration, Wan Jinghui’s heart skipped a beat. He regarded Ye Xuan with a serious expression, realizing that Ye Xuan was aware of the circumstances surrounding his own Golden Dragon of Luck. Concurrently, Yao Hongyi and Wan Jinghui shared their individual experiences with Ye Xuan. Both had been exceptionally powerful individuals before their reincarnation. Before reincarnating, they were renowned as extremely potent beast tamers, considered peak figures within the Imperial Universe. Prior to their reincarnation, they had made a deliberate choice to transfer to the Milky Way. At that time, they were not well-acquainted with the Pantian world, believing the Milky Way’s status as the capital of the Pantian Universe must signify its exceptional nature. Yet, they never anticipated that upon reincarnating into the Milky Way, they would become confined there. Despite countless attempts across numerous cycles, they were unable to depart the Milky Way. It was only with the creation of the Ancient Immortal Continent that they finally gained an opportunity to leave. However, once outside the Milky Way, they discovered that the region beyond had descended into chaos with the establishment of the Ancient Immortal Continent. Neither of them possessed the strength to withstand such turmoil. Even before reincarnation, they had only just managed to reach the Legend Level. Their current strength and power were barely on par with Lin Shiru’s. Nevertheless, both understood that with the existence of the Golden Dragon of Luck, it would not be long before the Pantian Universe plunged into utter chaos, became heavily fragmented, or saw the emergence of an overwhelmingly powerful individual who would annihilate everything. Due to their limited strength and power, coupled with minimal support from other factions, they could barely protect themselves. Consequently, they could only seek refuge in this hotel, focusing on self-improvement… and hoping to gain strength before considering any further actions. However, neither of them had foreseen encountering Ye Xuan and Lin Shiru so soon after settling down in Tongtian Continent. “Indeed, the Three Thousand Star Zone is not very secure at present, with conflicts erupting everywhere. If you seek to train, the Milky Way offers a much safer environment,” Ye Xuan responded. The Milky Way? Wan Jinghui fell silent for a moment. Before his reincarnation, he was considered an extraordinarily formidable figure, even within the Imperial Universe, and did not fear confronting the King of the Palace of the Ocean Dragons. However, he had now been reduced to a small and insignificant being. Upon hearing this, a thought seemed to occur to Yao Hongyi. Initially, after their departure from the Immortal Ancient Continent, they had the option to return to the Milky Way. However, both felt the Milky Way was akin to a prison and thus chose to proceed to the Tongtian Star Zone. Yet, they never anticipated that the moment the Immortal Ancient Continent appeared, the entire Pantian Universe would descend into chaos. Therefore, both, who had initially aimed to become stronger and more powerful, were compelled to seek refuge here. ”Ye Xuan.”
Upon witnessing Yao Hongyi’s reaction, Wan Jinghui drew a deep breath and inquired, “I’m uncertain if it will pose any difficulties for us to journey back to the Milky Way?”
"It’s remarkably straightforward," Ye Xuan responded. "Should you wish to return to the Milky Way, I can facilitate your passage. It's exceedingly convenient."
"Hongyi, do you desire to return to Cerulean Planet? I, too, was contemplating a visit back."
Lin Shiru, noticing Hongyi’s expression, brightened and asked her.
While she relished exploring alongside Ye Xuan, a concern lingered about potentially becoming a hindrance to him.
If Yao Hongyi intended to go back to Cerulean Planet, Lin Shiru saw it as an opportunity to reconnect and spend time with her friend.
Circumstances had shifted.
Previously, she bore the weight of her responsibilities as the vice-dean of Jiangzhou University, and the pursuit of vengeance had placed her under immense duress.
Even when she managed brief encounters with Yao Hongyi, those meetings couldn't extend beyond a few days.
Following Ye Xuan's assumption of leadership as the head of the Great Xia Alliance, the pressure she endured had lessened. Yet, her closest confidante, Yao Hongyi, had inexplicably vanished.
"Certainly, I shall accompany you back then,"
Yao Hongyi replied with a smile, tilting her head to glance at Wan Jinghui.
Wan Jinghui met her gaze with tenderness, a silent agreement passing between them.
…
"I wonder how many Golden Dragons of Luck remain."
Ye Xuan traversed the thoroughfare unaccompanied.
Not long ago, after his reunion with Wan Jinghui and Yao Hongyi, he had ensured their safe return to Cerulean Planet, along with Lin Shiru.
During this transition, Wan Jinghui had summoned her Golden Dragon of Luck and bestowed it upon him.
Ye Xuan had not harbored significant reservations about accepting it.
However, it was regrettable that Wan Jinghui’s Golden Dragon of Luck was at an exceedingly low level.
Consequently, even after absorbing Jinghui’s Golden Dragon of Luck, its strength saw only a marginal increase.
Nevertheless, Ye Xuan remained largely unperturbed.
His primary relief this time stemmed from the knowledge that both Wan Jinghui and Yao Hongyi were safe and sound.
Regarding the advancement of the Golden Dragon of Luck’s rank, he understood that a journey to the Tianyu Star Zone was imperative.
Fu Tianhao’s Golden Dragon of Luck had already attained the Eternal Level.
The prospect of his Golden Dragon of Luck either consuming Fu Tianhao’s own or reaching the Eternal Level himself was a tantalizing possibility.
Simultaneously, Wan Jinghui and Yao Hongyi experienced profound relief upon their return to Cerulean Planet.
Before their departure, Cerulean Planet lacked a designated leader.
Furthermore, the Milky Way remained fragmented, not yet unified.
And today, Ye Xuan had ascended to the position of leader for the Great Xia Alliance.
His cultivation base had surged to the Mythic Level, granting him the ability to traverse the Milky Way and beyond its confines with effortless grace.
His extraordinary progression had left Wan Jinghui deeply astonished.
He pondered the source of Ye Xuan’s remarkable fortune.
…
Swoosh!
Ye Xuan tore open the void and propelled himself towards the central plains of the Tongtian Continent.
The Tongtian Central Plains constituted the very heart of the Tongtian Continent.
It was within these central plains that the genuine transmission portal to the Tianyu Star Zone was located.
Given the diminished likelihood of accessing the Heavenly Universe secret realm, Ye Xuan resolved to journey to the Tianyu Star Zone to rendezvous with Fu Tianhao.
Following his encounter with Fu Tianhao and subsequent power enhancement, his intention was to return to the Tongtian Star Zone, seeking any potential advantages it might offer.
"Boom boom!"
Abruptly, just as Ye Xuan was making haste towards the Tongtian Central Plains, a tremor resonated within him, a tangible vibration felt from a considerable distance.
"What is this?"
A flicker of surprise crossed Ye Xuan’s features as his gaze settled upon the real-time mini-map.
Concurrently, via the live map feed, he discerned a spatial fracture manifesting in a distant galaxy.
Six formidable figures stood poised beyond the rift, engaged in a fierce contest against five other beast tamers who appeared to be their equals in strength.
"Eternal Level?"
Ye Xuan narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing the combatants more closely.
"Could that be the gateway to the Heavenly Universe Secret Realm? Are those individuals attempting to seize the secret realm from the Tongtian Council?"
Ye Xuan narrowed his eyes further.
He meticulously observed the unfolding events through the real-time mini-map.
Exploiting the chaos? A nascent thought sparked within Ye Xuan.
He contemplated the viability of such a maneuver.
"A Door!"
At this precise juncture, Ye Xuan continued his observation and realized that the fissure in the void was, in reality, a mystical portal.
This gateway bore no resemblance to conventional construction; rather, it presented itself as a colossal, enigmatic treasure.
The Tidal Treasure Snail’s physique began to vibrate intensely upon detecting this portal.
It could even sense the profound spatial energy emanating from it.
His portal was, in essence, a magnificent and potent treasure imbued with spatial properties.
However, this portal was bound with formidable strength by a chain of a dark hue.At the conclusion of the colossal chain stood a towering black silhouette, its figure stretching tens of thousands of meters high. Concurrently, through the rift in the void and the grand portal, Ye Xuan observed a fierce conflict unfolding within the secret realm. It appeared as though multiple formidable adversaries were engaged in combat.
