Beast Taming Patrol Chapter 1565 - 436: Lin Su’s Plan

The seven Immortals at the Ninth Realm halted abruptly, sharing looks that betrayed a flicker of inner turmoil in their gazes.

In the past, their submission to the Time Master stemmed from its utterly dominant power. Even uniting their forces, they couldn't stand against the Time Master.

Yet, should they all advance to the Mythic Stage as well, the combined might of seven such powerhouses could potentially challenge the Time Master, whose abilities do have boundaries.

The Time Master spoke with honesty; it had selected them personally from vast numbers of exotic beasts across the Southern Wild Domain, each brimming with vast potential, offering real prospects for reaching the Mythic Stage.

At that point, escape from the Time Master's grip would become possible.

However, the Time Master's latest offer bound them eternally to its will.

Locked in perpetual obedience to the Time Master, even after achieving the Mythic Stage, true independence would remain out of reach?

This fate held no appeal for them.

Still, they lacked the authority to turn it down.

Declining would signal disloyalty brewing within.

Based on their understanding of the Time Master, outright refusal now might provoke it to eliminate them without mercy.

Despite the heavy unwillingness weighing on their hearts, following a brief internal battle, the seven Immortals managed only to display faces brimming with profound thanks, eagerly embracing the Time Master's aid.

Observing its seven followers consent, a trace of ease appeared in the Time Master's eyes.

In that instant, it couldn't help feeling a touch of appreciation toward the Martial Emperor for supplying such a convenient excuse.

Thanks to its command over the Cosmic Division Rule, near invincibility defined it prior to entering the Mythic Stage.

Through endless layering of temporal energy lines, it wielded a fearsome might that overwhelmed peers at its level.

Nevertheless, amid the boundless energies of the Mythic Stage, these techniques forfeited their edge.

The Mythic Stage marked an entirely fresh tier of existence.

Beyond the Mythic Stage, what were once rules transformed; calling them "ways" fit better.

At this existential height, power hinged on mastery of the Way.

As for the Time Master, upon ascending to the Mythic Stage, it dimly grasped a certain division within the Way.

It appeared there might even exist realms surpassing the Mythic Stage.

Yet such heights lay far beyond the Time Master's current grasp.

For now, the Time Master lingered at the initial minor stage of the Mythic Stage, with even progressing to the next minor stage feeling like a remote aspiration.

In this situation, the seven subordinates who had attained the Ninth Realm of Immortality posed a growing danger.

If they likewise surged into the Mythic Stage, the Time Master might no longer hold them in check through sheer force.

Was blocking the Immortals' path to the Mythic Stage truly wise?

Such a move would surely spark widespread defection.

No amount of personal supremacy could make that scenario appealing.

After deep deliberation, the Time Master chose to bind its seven followers through an innovative approach.

This ensured they ceased being a risk.

Even should more Mythic Stage entities arise, they couldn't overcome eight Mythic Stage forces to dismantle its dominion.

Besides, with extra Mythic Stage allies at hand, the Time Master could face the cage's shattering with greater confidence.

While projecting cool detachment, it remained mindful of the Martial Emperor's declarations.

Should humanity birth a Martial God Realm expert or another Mythic Stage exotic beast emerge,

a brutal confrontation would await it.

Considering the direst possibilities, if two such titans appeared, annihilation loomed as a real peril.

Ancient exotic beasts had fallen to humanity through just such tactics.

This era, it refused to echo the blunders of those dim-witted predecessors.

The instant the cage shattered, it would storm the four domains and the Endless Sea with unstoppable momentum.

Create...

A new order!

The ominous flows of the Time Skill, guided by the Time Master's will, poured into the forms of the seven Immortals standing nearby.

Their frames shook fiercely, as time accelerated wildly around them—thousands upon thousands of times swifter.

Their presence swelled at an unmistakable rate, with Ninth Realm rules intensifying and beginning their shift toward the Way's essence.

...

Southern Wild Domain.

With the bulk of exotic beasts here seized by the Time Master, this forsaken region seemed all the more empty and stark.

Entering this uncharted exile territory for the first time, Lin Su's expression carried a spark of curiosity.

Across endless years, the Endless Sea had clashed repeatedly with the Southern Wild Domain, granting its inhabitants partial knowledge of the area.

Now fully claimed by Lanlan's faith avatar, the Endless Sea's denizens lent their insights, swiftly assembling details that let Lin Su pinpoint his goal amid the domain's immense emptiness.

"From what the Endless Sea creatures described, the Time Master typically dwells in this part of the Southern Wild Domain. The Time Secret Realm probably lies there too." Using her water powers, Lanlan conjured a vague map of the Southern Wild Domain in the air, indicating one spot on it.

"The Time Secret Realm!" At those words, Qiuqiu's features lit up with eager hope.

Having already attained the Mythic Stage, the Time Master surely wouldn't lug a Heavenly Rank Secret Realm everywhere, right?

"The spot's confirmed." Gui Gui gave a nod, and in the following instant, leveraging mighty Space Rules, it whisked Lin Su and the other five directly to Lanlan's marked location.

A sprawling plain stretched out, subtle signs confirming it as a former haunt of the Time Master.

"I sense it!" Excitement burst across Qiuqiu's face in a flash.

Shifting into a streak of brilliant light, it dashed straight to a gateway shimmering in the emptiness.

The recognizable energy soon sparked delight on its visage.

It had first encountered this gateway in the recollections of a Southern Wild Domain Immortal.

Via those visions, Qiuqiu had viewed the Heavenly Rank Secret Realm's unveiling and beheld the Time Master fresh from its Immortal breakthrough.

That marked Qiuqiu's initial glimpse of the Time Master's prowess.

Now, ages later, it had itself climbed to the Immortal Realm.

The gateway from its memories at last unveiled itself to Qiuqiu!

Merely positioned before the gateway, Qiuqiu felt Time’s Heart throbbing rapidly, along with a warm familiarity toward the Secret Realm ahead.

Within awaited the Time Pavilion, the very prize it had chased with fervent longing!

Here, the Time Scripture's legacy could reach completion.

Plus, the Time Pavilion might hold further lucky breaks to bolster its path.

This stood as its prime chance prior to heading back to Blue Star.

Without a second thought, Qiuqiu plunged through the gateway.

"Time to go after it."

Watching the thrilled Qiuqiu, Lin Su grinned, guiding the five young ones to cross the gateway as one.
