Beast Taming Patrol Chapter 1503 - 423: Homeward Journey and Unexpected Events (2-in-1, Finale Countdown: 28) (Part 6)

The Phantom King sought vengeance for his brother, and from his own perspective, his motives were justified.

Nevertheless, since he had endangered Lin Su’s life, Lin Su would show him no mercy.

With a swift motion of his hand, Lin Su swiped at the air, causing the Phantom King’s remains to be pulled into the Hell World.

Just as the Phantom King perished, Yingying’s voice echoed in his mind, explaining that the king's power contained the fragments required to complete its Illusion and Reality Rules.

Hearing this, Lin Su readily claimed the Phantom King’s corpse.

He then shifted his attention toward Cai Zun and Yue Xie, who were fighting nearby.

At that moment, the battle on the other side had turned into a one-sided slaughter.

"Cai Zun, let me go. I will leave this place immediately!" Yue Xie’s voice trembled with terror.

Witnessing the Phantom King fall so effortlessly at Lin Su’s hands had truly unnerved him.

Even though Lin Su’s current Cultivation was only at the fourth realm, Yue Xie feared the hidden trump cards the youth might possess.

Already struggling against Cai Zun’s overwhelming power, he did not dare to take any more risks.

"Leave?"

Cai Zun let out a cold sneer as his aura suddenly erupted toward the heavens!

This terrifying pressure surged violently, proving to be significantly more potent than the strength he had displayed moments ago!

"You! You were hiding your true power this whole time?!"

Yue Xie’s voice was now filled with a mixture of panic and disbelief.

Cai Zun did not bother to reply. The Eight-Colored Divine Light morphed into a barrage of devastating attacks, raining down upon Yue Xie!

Full strength?

Previously, he had held back at least thirty percent of his power and focus. He had been wary that the Phantom King might attempt a desperate, final strike against Lin Su as he died.

Cai Zun was famous for the cautious nature he developed at Self Transformation Valley!

Seeing that Yue Xie was on the verge of death with no hope of a reversal, Lin Su let out a soft sigh of relief.

His eyes drifted toward the direction of the Three Beast Taming Sects.

Currently, the Three Beast Taming Sects were likely locked in a confrontation with the warriors.

Although two major immortal threats had been dealt with, he knew he couldn't let his guard down completely.

Who could say if more traps were hidden in the shadows?

Lin Su’s expression flickered with hesitation before he flipped his palm, revealing a Jade Ruyi.

This Jade Ruyi, much like the Jade Glazed Phoenix Crown, had been a gift from Ji Qinghuan.

It contained the power of Rong Zun.

By breaking it, he could instantly teleport back to the Immortal Phoenix Sect regardless of his current location.

He sent a mental transmission to Cai Zun: "Cai Zun, the situation has taken an unexpected turn. I will use a spatial treasure to return to the Eastern Extreme Domain first. Once things here are settled, please visit the Eastern Extreme Domain, and I will surely welcome you as my honored guest."

Cai Zun, while using the Eight-Colored Divine Light to crush Yue Xie, felt his eyes flicker.

Given the current chaos, there was no way he could simply travel to the Eastern Extreme Domain right now.

After finishing Yue Xie, he needed to return to Self Transformation Valley to assess his Sect’s status, leaving him unable to protect Lin Su.

It was for the best if Lin Su returned on his own.

With this thought, Cai Zun quickly replied, "Understood. I apologize for failing to protect you more effectively."

"You are too kind, Cai Zun. This was an unforeseen crisis, and I am already deeply grateful for your help," Lin Su replied earnestly before shattering the Jade Ruyi without hesitation.

"Boom!"

The moment the Jade Ruyi broke, the phantom of a massive, mottled tree descended with a thunderous roar.

It was an illusory manifestation of Rong Zun’s true form. As it appeared, countless branches reached out, weaving together to create layers of folded space.

The branches rapidly wrapped around Lin Su, forming a protective cocoon like a sealed nest.

A moment later, a massive surge of spatial power erupted.

A void pathway began to stretch out from their location, reaching toward the Eastern Extreme Domain.

As the path crossed over the Endless Sea, its progress slowed noticeably.

Even with Rong Zun’s eighth-realm Cultivation, the Sea Breaking Barrier could not be entirely ignored.

Fortunately, at this rate, the teleportation would be complete in just a few breaths.

Nearby, accompanied by a world-shaking cry of agony, Yue Xie was pierced through by the countless rays of Cai Zun’s Eight-Colored Divine Light.

The brilliant radiance seemed infinite, the eight colors intertwining to form a terrifying force that erased everything about Yue Xie.

His physical form, his power, and his Rules were all targeted.

Everything was reduced to ash beneath that searing, magnificent light. When the glow finally subsided, Yue Xie’s massive kilometer-long body had vanished completely, leaving not even a bone behind.

"Huff!"

Cai Zun exhaled deeply.

Once one reaches the seventh realm, their immortal vitality becomes incredibly resilient; killing such a being is a grueling task.

Despite his superior strength, the effort had drained most of his energy. He had just enough left to return to Self Transformation Valley.

He could have simply wounded Yue Xie and let him flee.

However, he chose to kill him as a warning to the Wild Immortals of the Northern Divine Domain and the warriors.

Yue Xie was the sacrificial lamb used to intimidate the others.

After confirming Yue Xie was dead, Cai Zun looked toward Lin Su, who was now safely encased in the strange wooden cocoon.

A peculiar light shone in his eyes.

Legend said the Immortal Phoenix Sect of the Eastern Extreme Domain possessed a master of space named Rong Zun.

Was this his power?

With such a powerful protection method, Lin Su should be able to return home without incident.

Relaxing slightly, he watched the void path extend to the horizon and called out, "Young friend Lin Su, I shall visit the Eastern Extreme Domain once this crisis has passed."

From within the cocoon of branches, Lin Su’s muffled voice replied, "Cai Zun, the Eastern Extreme Domain awaits your arrival!"

A moment later, a blinding silver light exploded from the branches. The cocoon shielded Lin Su from the spatial turbulence as it shot down the completed path, vanishing in an instant.

Watching Lin Su leave, Cai Zun felt a weight lift from his shoulders.

It was time for him to head back to Self Transformation Valley as well.

But just as the thought crossed his mind, Cai Zun’s eyes suddenly bulged.

An invisible hand had abruptly manifested in the void, grasping the spatial pathway!

Countless glyphs and mysterious energies swirled around that hand, erupting with a blinding light and a terrifying, destructive force!

It happened in the blink of an eye. The hand and the glyphs merged into an ancient, mystical Formation.

As the Formation settled, the once-indestructible spatial path shattered into pieces!

From his vantage point, Cai Zun saw the branch cocoon containing Lin Su get swallowed by a violent spatial storm, his ultimate destination now unknown.

Cai Zun’s eyes widened in fury as his mind raced.

"Who is it?!"

From the far end of the broken path, a roar of extreme rage echoed across the vast distance, snapping Cai Zun back to reality.

Was that Rong Zun from the Immortal Phoenix Sect?

His own eyes burned with rage as he glared toward a specific point in the void.

"Tongyou Taixuan Palace!!!"

A figure emerged from the emptiness, hands behind his back and a smile on his face.

"The Three Beast Taming Sects have conspired with the Eastern Extreme Domain, betraying the Northern Divine Domain. They intended to bring foreign powers into our lands to profit from the chaos."

"Knowing this, I could neither eat nor sleep in peace."

"To stop such a plot today... it was a necessary sacrifice."

"My apologies, truly."
