Yan Ji learns of Deng Yuchun's reappearance and dispatches a messenger. Meanwhile, Lin Bai enters a Giant Beast Graveyard and witnesses other tribes plundering the remains. While the Blood Robe Sect Master searches for the Heaven and Earth Beast Control Skill, Lin Bai pursues a Black Cat, leading him out of the graveyard. He encounters an old man, revealed to be the Beast-controlling Ancestor, along with Ye Suxin and Lin Ye, who claims the Ancestor will teach her the Heaven and Earth Beast Control Skill.

The Beast-controlling Ancestor was the pinnacle Strong One of the Barbaric Ancient Continent a thousand years ago, renowned Under Heaven for his ability to control beasts, unmatched in the world.

The Beast-controlling Ancestor looked at Lin Bai with a smile, gently stroking the black cat in his arms, and smiled at Lin Bai, saying: "How fortunate you are to have such an outstanding Warrior by your side?"

"Dragon Elephant Devouring Heaven Body, as your Guardian!"

"Transcendent Martial Spirit, as your companion!"

"But it’s a pity that your Family is destined to bear the fate of being hunted down!"

The Beast-controlling Ancestor smiled bitterly at Lin Bai and said.

Lin Bai spoke expressionlessly: "Senior, if you wish to impart Ye Suxin’s Legacy, you should do so openly, why resort to so many underhanded tricks in the darkness?"

"And also, what’s the meaning of these Giant Beast skeletons here?"

Lin Bai asked coldly.

The Beast-controlling Ancestor chuckled lightly: "The Giant Beast skeletons here were all slain by Human Clan Martial Art seniors in those days, just piled up here!"

"During the Primordial Era, the powers of the Giant Beast were overwhelming, crushing all things, and the Human Clan struggled to survive, forcing Human Clan Strong Ones to rise up, creating the unique Dragon Slaying Skill specifically to hunt Giant Beasts!"

"The Giant Beasts they hunted were then piled here as skeletons!"

"Once upon the Barbaric Ancient Continent, there were nine graveyards piled with the Giant Beasts’ skeletons!"

"But the other eight places have already been discovered, and the Giant Beast skeletons within were all looted empty, and this Giant Beast Graveyard is the last one on the Barbaric Ancient Continent!"

The Beast-controlling Ancestor said indifferently.

Lin Bai listened carefully.

The Beast-controlling Ancestor said: "I was once a Legacy inheritor of the Dragon Slaying Skill, but later, I discovered that hunting Giant Beasts is less effective than finding ways to tame them for my own use!"

"Thus I made some improvements to the ’Beast Control Skill’ and created the ’Heaven and Earth Beast Control Skill’, which can control Prehistoric Giant Beasts!"

Lin Bai heard the Beast-controlling Ancestor’s words and asked: "What is the Dragon Slaying Skill?"

The Beast-controlling Ancestor said: "It is an extremely ancient Martial Technique and Divine Power, created to hunt those beings difficult to kill, such as Giant Beasts, or... Giant Gods!"

The Beast-controlling Ancestor looked at Lin Bai with a smile.

Lin Bai’s eyes flickered, and he said: "What do you mean?"

The Beast-controlling Ancestor said: "Is my speech still not clear enough? The Dragon Slaying Skill was created to hunt down those beings difficult to kill!"

"Those beings difficult to kill naturally include the Giant God!"

The Beast-controlling Ancestor said with a smile.

Lin Bai said dismissively: "I don’t believe that this mere Barbaric Ancient Continent, which is not the Spirit Realm, could possess a Martial Technique and Divine Power capable of killing Giant Gods?"

Lin Bai was filled with skepticism towards the Beast-controlling Ancestor’s words.

If the Dragon Slaying Skill could kill Giant Beasts, Lin Bai believed it.

But if it were said that the Dragon Slaying Skill could kill Giant Gods, Lin Bai fundamentally did not believe it.

Moreover, this is the Barbaric Ancient Continent, how could the level of Martial Techniques and Divine Powers here compare with the Spirit Realm?

The Beast-controlling Ancestor laughed lightly: "Young friend, the Primordial Era is not unique to the Barbaric Ancient Continent alone; in other worlds, whether Spirit Realm or Mortal Realm, there existed a Primordial Era!"

"The Spirit Realm as well!"

"In the Spirit Realm, there are Prehistoric Giant Beasts, only they are far stronger than the ones in the Barbaric Ancient Continent!"

"And if I told you that Prehistoric Giant Beasts and Giant Gods appeared during the same era, would you believe it?"

The Beast-controlling Ancestor smiled gently.

Lin Bai looked solemnly at the Beast-controlling Ancestor and said: "You seem very familiar with the Spirit Realm? Have you been there?"

The Beast-controlling Ancestor said: "No, my familiarity with the Spirit Realm comes from once standing at the pinnacle of the Barbaric Ancient Continent. If one day you stand on the highest peak of the Barbaric Ancient Continent, you too can glimpse some secrets of the Spirit Realm!"

"Moreover, the grievances between the Sky-swallowing Clan and the Giant God Clan are no longer secrets in All Heavens and Myriad Realms!"

"Once your strength reaches Wending Realm, you can learn more secrets above the Barbaric Ancient Continent!"

"You don’t know now because your strength is insufficient!"

"Such as, the secrets of the Central Holy Nation!"

The Beast-controlling Ancestor laughed lightly.

Lin Bai frowned and asked: "Central Holy Nation?"

The Beast-controlling Ancestor laughed: "Hehe, have you never wondered why the strength above the Barbaric Ancient Continent is so formidable? The East Continent has the God-Demon Sect, East Continent Academy, Kunxu, and various powers!"

"The North State has the Sword God Family, the Southern Continent has the Poison God Clan, the Western Buddha Land even has countless Buddha-lord-level figures, why under the ancient eras does the Central Holy Nation always sit at the Hegemony level atop the Barbaric Ancient Continent!"

Lin Bai took a deep breath, looking shocked at the Beast-controlling Ancestor.

The words spoken by the Beast-controlling Ancestor completely overturned Lin Bai’s understanding.

The Beast-controlling Ancestor shook his head and said: "As I am in the twilight of my life, I use this Spirit Communication Mystical Cat to preserve a trace of Spiritual Wisdom here, even saying so much to you is of no use!"

After speaking, the Beast-controlling Ancestor once again looked towards Ye Suxin and said: "I hope you can make good use of ’Heaven and Earth Beast Control Skill’, also hoping you can fulfill my last wish, to one day leave this world and go to the Spirit Realm!"

Ye Suxin nodded slightly and said: "Junior will certainly strive hard!"

Swoosh swoosh swoosh—

At this time, Bai Kun, the Blood Robe Sect Master, Yang Zhi, and others arrived at the edge of the Giant Beast Graveyard, seeing Lin Bai, Ye Suxin, Lin Ye, and the Beast-controlling Ancestor and others.

The Beast-controlling Ancestor still smiled at these people.

While Bai Kun, Yang Zhi, and others were still puzzling over who this old man was, the Blood Robe Sect Master spoke first, asking: "May I ask if it is the Senior Beast-controlling Ancestor?"

The Beast-controlling Ancestor smiled lightly and nodded.

The Blood Robe Sect Master immediately knelt and said: "Junior is a subordinate of the Southern Continent Divine Gate, revering the Elder Beast-controlling Ancestor as always, and came today wanting to receive the Senior’s Legacy!"

"Senior is already in the twilight of his life, please impart the ’Heaven and Earth Beast Control Skill’!"

Upon hearing the Blood Robe Sect Master’s words, Yang Zhi and Bai Kun were dumbfounded, astonished at the elderly man before them, saying: "He is the Beast-controlling Ancestor!"

"Strong One, who Once dominated the Barbaric Ancient Continent!"

"My heavens..."

The Beast-controlling Ancestor said with a smile: "Apologies, I have already chosen the inheritor!"

The Blood Robe Sect Master was stunned, looking at Lin Bai, Ye Suxin, Lin Ye, and asked: "Who might it be?"

The Beast-controlling Ancestor shook his head and said: "That I cannot reveal!"

"But since you’ve come, I shall give you a blessing!"

The Beast-controlling Ancestor chuckled lightly, waved his hand, and nearby, a skeleton of a Giant Beast shattered apart, from within flew out a bone fragment emitting white light, tall as a person, seemingly covered with dense writing.

"This is the only Dragon Slaying Skill left here, a sword skill, named ’Sword One’, given to you!"

The Beast-controlling Ancestor chuckled, pushing the bone fragment forward, letting it float before the crowd.

The Blood Robe Sect Master, Bai Kun, Yang Zhi, and others looked eagerly at the bone fragment.

At this moment, Lin Bai’s gaze also tightened, looking at that bone fragment with some desire.

Especially knowing from the Beast-controlling Ancestor’s words, this Dragon Slaying Skill, created for beings difficult to kill, made Lin Bai even more tempted.
