467: The last year, now the king level!
Another three years passed.
It was the fifth year after the World Conference.
Within the Remnant Domain, which cultivated King-level Beast Masters, a group of Beast Tamer who had reached the King Late Stage were sparring on a massive arena!
"Boom!!!"
The commotion caused by the two sides' beasts was deafening!
On one side was Lin Qinghuan's angel, and on the other was a veteran King, who had been a King Late Stage decades ago!
"Is the gap really this large, even though we're both King Late Stage?"
"Lin Qinghuan's angel seems like it can't hold on much longer."
"If not for the world's limitations, that old man would probably have already advanced to Emperor-level."
"The elemental energy in this world is still not dense enough to support the birth of more Emperor-level beings!"
"Hm? It can actually resist. Her angel seems to have condensed a trace of Holy Power element!"
Everyone looked towards the arena.
The angel's body radiated a holy light.
With a chant, it suppressed the fierce beast in front of it to the ground, rendering it immobile!
The old man showed surprise and said, "Holy elemental power, you can actually condense a trace."
The next second.
That beast suddenly broke free!
A surge of fire elemental power also circulated around its body!
That fire element, wrapped around its palm, was far more solid than Lin Qinghuan's elemental power!
"I've lost, senior. Your beast is stronger!"
Lin Qinghuan cupped her hands.
Compared to before, she had matured significantly, and her figure had also matured a lot.
Facing such a sensible junior, the old man nodded slightly and said, "You're already very good. Out of the hundreds of people who come and go here, fewer than seventy can condense a trace of elemental power."
"And fewer than ten can condense a full surge like you, senior," Lin Qinghuan humbly replied.
Hearing her words, the old man smiled faintly, quite pleased, and then added a few more sentences: "There are many who are stronger than me. However, this year marks the fifth year, and according to the agreement, the world's boundaries will be jointly opened by various nations. At that time, many of us will advance to Emperor!"
As the old man's voice fell, congratulations for advancing to Emperor immediately rose and fell from the surroundings.
As for whether it would be Emperor Early Stage, Emperor Middle Stage, or even Late Stage, that would entirely depend on whether one's own accumulation was sufficient.
"No need to congratulate me. When I become stronger, I will naturally be the first to confront those Celestial God Clan!" A sharp glint flashed in the old man's eyes, then his expression softened as he looked around at everyone and said, "It's time for this old man to play his part!"
These words caused everyone around to fall silent.
Could they really resist those Celestial God Clan who possessed elemental power?
But there was still some hope, after all, some among them had condensed three surges of elemental power!
With just one attack, they instantly killed a beast of the King Late Stage who lacked elemental power. These King Late Stage Beast Tamer who possessed one or even a trace of elemental power could all be called King Peak!
"Where's Fang Ran? Senior Lin, he always stays in his villa and never comes out to spar!"
A foreign Beast Tamer, seemingly admiring Fang Ran, asked.
Lin Qinghuan glanced at him, seemingly hesitating for a moment, and then replied, "I don't know. I haven't really contacted him either."
Ever since they came here, she and Fang Ran seemed to have rarely contacted each other.
"Fang Ran reached King Late Stage several years ago. He must be even stronger now, right?"
"Definitely. His beast defeated an angel with elemental power, even without elemental power itself!"
"More than that? You have to know, it only took Fang Ran two or three years from becoming a Beast Tamer to reaching King-level, and now another two or three years have passed!"
A group of King-level Beast Masters discussed animatedly.
They seemed to greatly admire Fang Ran.
They were even more curious about what level Fang Ran could reach now?
After all, he was already so strong before; wouldn't he be even more formidable now?
"I don't think so. He hasn't shown up for such a long time, and it's not like there haven't been geniuses who fell in the past!"
"That's true. Many beasts have high potential when evolving, but it's not uncommon for them to be unable to absorb elemental power!"
"I admit, Fang Ran is very talented, but he might not be able to compare to that genius who condensed three elemental powers!"
Everyone discussed amongst themselves.
Comparing Fang Ran to them had become a tiresome topic among the crowd.
After all, in the past, only Fang Ran had fought against the Celestial God Clan with elemental power, and even defeated them!
This made Fang Ran's standing in everyone's hearts at least stronger than a beast with one surge of elemental power, but whether he could be stronger than the genius with three surges of elemental power was still a mystery.
"My ears are starting to callus from hearing this." Nikola dug his ear with his pinky finger.
He was one of those few geniuses, a Beast Tamer with a beast possessing three elemental powers!
"There's no point in all this comparing. In the end, we still have to fight against the Celestial God Clan!"
Although Nikola was curious why Fang Ran didn't come to spar, he didn't underestimate him too much.
However, they were limited by the world, and condensing three surges of elemental power was already their limit.
Any more elemental power, even from some evolutionary fruits containing elemental power, would be very difficult to extract!
...At this very moment.
Below the Celestial God Clan's ancestral land.
Xiao Tian sat underground, the surrounding mist having largely dissipated.
Her eyes, gleaming with a beautiful golden light, gazed at a wisp of light in the darkness.
"This is... the thing wrapped in black mist?"
Xiao Tian reached out her hand.
She held that wisp of light in her palm.
As she opened her palm again, the wisp of light had vanished.
"It disappeared..." Xiao Tian murmured to herself.
Her gaze swept across the surroundings.
In the silent darkness, there was nothing.
The only thing that glowed here was her.
"Sigh, he hasn't come to find me during this time... I should go back to the Celestial God Clan. I don't know how much time has passed."
Xiao Tian stretched her body, her bones letting out a series of crackling sounds.
Her delicate and fair body stretched, perfectly showcasing beautiful lines, but unfortunately, no one could witness this pleasing sight.
Stepping up the stairs, Xiao Tian arrived on the surface, where she was already surrounded by the Celestial God Clan, who had built an enclosed church for people to admire and visit.
And the passage was located within the permanently sealed church, with the faint sounds of tourists still audible from outside the door.
Xiao Tian extended her palm, and a bright light covered her wings.
In the next instant, her body transformed into a streak of light, instantly leaving the church and arriving on a distant cliff.
Then, she flapped her wings and flew towards the location of the Celestial God Clan.
Along the way, all living beings avoided her path.
A moment later.
Inside the Celestial God Clan's great hall.
Soan was handling the Celestial God Clan's affairs, with Mia assisting him.
Since Soan arranged for her to attend the World Conference several years ago, Mia had been heavily relied upon by him, helping him eliminate many opponents and taking charge of numerous Celestial God Clan matters.
Mia naturally knew why she was favored; it was definitely not because of her talent, but simply because she had a past connection with Fang Ran.
