Chapter 389
At this moment, Lin Beifan finally understood why they had to slaughter Supreme Grandmasters.
It was for self-preservation.
Only by killing them while they were weak could they nip the problem in the bud and save their own lives.
Otherwise, it would be too late to act once they grew stronger.
To prevent such incidents from happening again, we not only killed that human but also slaughtered all the powerful humans and the forces behind them, destroying all traces related to us. From then on, we distanced ourselves from humans and silently protected this world! However, if a supreme being emerges, we will use all our efforts to annihilate them! Vermilion Bird added, aligning with Lin Beifans suspicions.
At the same time, through this conversation, he understood a lot more.
The reason why there were gaps in human civilization, why history from ten thousand years ago had vanished without a traceit was the doing of the holy beasts.
If it had been him, he probably would have done the same.
Its a sad story, not just about the Four Holy Beasts but also about the human race.
Both sides could have coexisted peacefully, but it was all ruined by one greedy person.
Truly lamentable!
At that moment, Black Tortoise, having regained some strength, spoke in a somber tone, Now that you know the whole truth, do as you will with us. We cannot defeat you anyway!
Lin Beifan thought for a moment and then split the essences he had taken into halves.
He returned one half and kept the other half for himself.
The Four Holy Beasts were dumbfounded: What are you doing?
Your experiences are pitiful, but what you have done is unforgivable! Especially since we had no previous grievances, yet you dared to attack me. Naturally, I cannot show mercy!
Lin Beifan declared. However, I am always a person who values talent! Together, you four holy beasts are on par with Earthly Immortals. It would be a pity to kill you! I am about to wage war across myriad worlds and need many talents, so I want you to serve me! As long as you serve me and achieve enough merits, I will return the other half of your essence to you!
Lin Beifan extended the invitation: Now, would you swear loyalty to me?
The Four Holy Beasts were even more stunned.
They had not expected him to want to subdue them.
Youre weird. People who obtain our essence would certainly want to devour it to strengthen themselves, yet you do not wish to do so, only to subdue us
With my strength, I do not need to devour your essence! Lin Beifan declared confidently.
The Four Holy Beasts thought it over and nodded in agreement.
Hes alone, and yet he has defeated them.
Their essence was merely icing on the cake for him. It was good to have but not essential.
But you can use our essences to cultivate talents! Azure Dragon suggested.
Lin Beifan shook his head: Although they can be used to cultivate talent, they can only reach the peak Supreme Grandmaster in their lifetime. Once their potential is exhausted, the loss outweighs the gain! But you are naturally born holy beasts with immense potential! Keeping you is of greater benefit to me!
Arent you afraid well turn against you one day?
Im not afraid. If I could suppress you once, I can do it a second time! And
Lin Beifan clenched his fist, speaking with utmost confidence, I mean, do you still have the courage now?
The four holy beasts looked at each other, their spirits dampened.
Their courage was completely shattered!
Their courage and audacity had been completely shattered by Lin Beifan!
They didnt know how many eons they had lived, but they had never seen anyone as extraordinary as Lin Beifan, who single-handedly overwhelmed them!
Reflecting on it now, they were still terrified.
Even ants cling to life, and although we are holy beasts, given the chance to live, naturally we do not wish to die!
The four holy beasts exchanged glances and said in unison, We pledge allegiance to Your Majesty!
Ding! Due to players national power growth, strength has synchronized increased. You are rewarded with the Supreme Bone of Three Lives and the completion of the Nine Secrets!
The Supreme Bone is a top-tier physique, no less than a Saintly Body and Innate Holy Body Embryo! Among them, the Supreme Bone of Three Lives is the ultimate evolution of the Supreme Bone, having been reborn twice, each rebirth adding a terrifying ability! Currently, only one terrifying power has been awakened, the Hand of Heaven, formed from the descending light of heavenly tribulation, containing the profound mysteries of all things, capable of breaking the
The Nine Secrets are the top nine secret techniques of a certain great world! Once mastered, one can dominate the era! Currently, the player has mastered two of these techniques, and the remaining seven are rapidly being absorbed as rewards from the Empire Sandbox.
Then, a powerful and terrifying force burst forth from his body, swiftly sweeping across the world.
All the humans in the world felt it, utterly astonished.
What kind of power is this? So powerful?
Has someone achieved supreme enlightenment?
Impossible! Theres no way the supreme could possess such terrifying power!
Inside the imperial palace, everyone was shocked too.
Has His Majesty broken through?
Hes already an Earthly Immortal, can he still break through?
What realm comes after Earthly Immortal?
Sister Medusa, do you know?
Everyone looked towards Medusa, as she seemed to understand Lin Beifan the best.
But Medusa shook her head: I dont know, dont ask me!
She had some suspicions that His Majestys strength, even if not yet reaching the realm of a Battle God, was likely not far from it.
Goodness,how much time has passed, and His Majesty has already
Everyone was extremely surprised, let alone the four holy beasts who were closest to him right now?
At this moment, they all felt a chill down their spines.
This monster was already so strong how could he become even stronger?
Originally, they thought that although there was a great gap between them and Lin Beifan, they could still see his back, and if they tried hard enough, it seemed there was still a chance to catch up.
But now, they couldnt even see his shadow!
He had left them far behind!
Finally, Lin Beifan finished absorbing the power and opened his eyes, satisfied.
Vermilion Bird cautiously asked, Your Majesty, have you broken through?
Lin Beifan shook his head and smiled, Not yet! Im still in the realm of Earthly Immortal, but Ive reached the peak! Give me a little more time, and I should be able to break through!
The four holy beasts cursed inwardly: Freak!
Lin Beifan wiped the smile off his face and solemnly said, From today onwards, I appoint you as the Four Great Holy Beasts of Great Xia to stabilize the fortunes of Great Xia and strengthen the foundation of the Celestial Empire!
Yes, Your Majesty! the Four Holy Beasts acknowledged the command.
After dealing with the matters of the holy beasts, Lin Beifan looked up at the sky.
There, a massive, multicolored ring adorned with countless chains of rules that controlled the workings of the entire world.
The authority of Heaven and Earth, Im coming for you!
