Divine Beast Creator

"Prepare for protection!"

Feng Yuan shouted coldly. Although he already knew the outcome, he didn’t want Qi Chen and the others to let their guard down so easily unless they could be sure that no unexpected events would occur.

But that was impossible. Even Feng Yuan wasn’t confident about it; he was just fearless because of his own strength against possible unexpected events.

"Cotton! The prank of fate! Earth! Let Xiao Ji use a Space Series ultimate move for protection!"

Dou Yanlan immediately shouted. The group quickly ordered their respective Spirit Beasts, though the defense they had set up earlier on the mountaintop had collapsed at the first touch. It didn’t mean they couldn’t do anything.

Xiao Ji released the Spatial Transfer Barrier, eyes fixed on the incoming light.

From the moment the light locked onto them, they had less than a few seconds before it reached them. All they could do was release their defense techniques with all their might.

However, just at that moment, the rock mountain suddenly exploded, and the light vanished just before it touched the barrier.

Dou Yanlan, who had been holding her breath tensely, exhaled deeply upon witnessing this scene. Indeed, her judgment was correct.

The fragmentation of the rock mountain was just the beginning. To their surprise, the surrounding mountains began to fragment themselves. Or rather, it seemed as if the mountains were being drained of power and were rapidly weathering away.

"The sacrificial weapon borrowed the world’s power... I see."

Agunas thoughtfully wagged its tail. It was truly unexpected to break the power of the sacrificial weapon like this. No wonder Feng Yuan wasn’t especially worried before.

"What exactly happened?"

Qi Chen mumbled in confusion. Feng Yuan smiled faintly and said,

"It seems you’ve figured out the correct solution for this place. Honestly, I didn’t think the solution here would be like this at first."

"What... What exactly is going on? What correct solution? Can’t that thing fight Kastantos?"

Wu Dingwu scratched his head, as clueless as Qi Chen about what happened. Shaking his head slightly to clear his mind, Dou Yanlan began to explain,

"It’s not that it can’t fight Kastantos, but that the weapon known as the sacrificial weapon borrows the world’s power. No wonder you emphasized its origins earlier."

Glancing at Feng Yuan, Dou Yanlan understood that even if he hadn’t realized it at first, he must have caught on midway.

Seeing Qi Chen and the others confused, Dou Yanlan continued to explain,

"The final phase is very simple. The power of the sacrificial weapon comes from the world itself. Regardless of what happens, I believe there’s a rule that cannot be broken, which is using it to destroy the world itself."

Saying that, Dou Yanlan glanced at the mountains and said,

"Although I don’t know what powers Kastantos had during the Mythical Era, the power of the mountains should be born of nature. Since these mountains were influenced by Kastantos, the power of the mountains must exist."

"With the power of mountains that originate from nature, wouldn’t it be logical to assume that these mountains are an integral part of the natural environment?"

"If the sacrificial weapon itself cannot forcibly borrow power, then using the world’s power to destroy the world itself will surely violate that rule and cause the sacrificial weapon to completely lose its borrowed energy."

After explaining, Dou Yanlan looked at Feng Yuan, who smiled and said,

"You’ve guessed it right. The sacrificial weapon indeed has this flaw, and the recent attack did destroy the mountains. Even though this thing was man-made by Kastantos, in a sense, it’s also part of the natural environment. Their attack caused significant damage to the natural environment, which would naturally be punished."

"Did you make use of Kastantos’ self-destruction? It truly is quite impressive."

Veronia glanced thoughtfully at Dou Yanlan, who was instead slightly puzzled as she said,

"Self-destruction?"

"In the Mythical Era, every nation had measures to protect technology from being captured by foreign enemies. Since the soldiers of Kastantos were eradicated by the sacrificial weapon, it indicated that this mountainous land was unprotected. Under attack, it would trigger a self-protection mechanism for self-destruction."

Shaking his head amusedly, Feng Yuan realized Dou Yanlan had stumbled upon the way to proceed purely by accident.

If they had done this before the sacrificial weapon annihilated Kastantos’ soldiers, the mountains wouldn’t have self-destructed, and the reshaping light beams wouldn’t have been defensible.

Only like now, when the mountainous land was on the verge of collapse, could they successfully deal with the sacrificial weapon.

There was no choice. Although the collapse of the mountainous land should be the result of multiple factors, as far as the world was concerned, participation would mean equal accountability, which is why the sacrificial weapon completely failed.

It is precisely for this reason that using the sacrificial weapon itself wasn’t as convenient as imagined. That thing had significant limitations, and one careless mistake could render it completely ineffective. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

With the collapse of the mountainous land, the sacrificial weapon also completely lost its effectiveness, and Feng Yuan and the others managed to pass through successfully.

A golden vortex opened before them. Veronia glanced at the familiar yet unfamiliar place without any nostalgia and stepped into the golden vortex.

"Let’s go; there’s nothing left to take here."

Feng Yuan smiled and followed right behind, leading Xiao Ji and the others into the golden vortex. Dou Yanlan and the others hurriedly followed, and Tamur lingered at the end, seemingly deep in thought.

Agunas noticed that Tamur hadn’t moved and gently tapped him.

"What’s up?"

"Nothing."

Raising his eyes to look at Agunas, Tamur drifted into the golden vortex. Agunas, puzzled while watching Tamur disappear, wagged its tail and followed suit.

The golden vortex quickly constricted and collapsed, disappearing completely after Agunas emerged.

"Is this a Parallel Space? It’s indeed fascinating. Hey Feng Yuan, is this something only you can activate?"

Coming out from the Parallel Space, Wu Dingwu was extremely excited and thrilled. There was no way around it. This battle in the Parallel Space, though brief, had provided him with significant insights.

After all, in this battle, everyone’s ultimate moves and attributes underwent transformation. This forced them to pay attention to ultimate move combinations that usually had nothing to do with them.

Although they can’t use these combinations out of the Parallel Space, the insights still offered them considerable inspiration.

Like Cotton’s prank of fate, this ultimate move hadn’t been valued, partly because there weren’t many Spirit Beasts mastering it, and especially because before the Crystal Domain, changing the attribute of group ultimate moves wasn’t quite beneficial.

As changing the form of ultimate moves could decrease their power, and targeting a goal that could only be affected by specific attributes?

Sorry, such opportunities were too rare, and using the corresponding attribute Spirit Beast was actually more convenient.

But now, with the arrival of the Crystal Domain, this once-despised special ultimate move possessed undeniable strategic value.

It’s important to note that the number of people bolstered by this ability is not small. Its effectiveness on a multi-member squad like Feng Yuan’s is notable and has even greater implications for the army.

This means they don’t need to prepare corresponding Spirit Beasts specifically for different Crystal Domain attributes.

It has been proven in the Parallel Space that as long as attributes are converted, the attributes of Domain Awakening corresponding to the Crystal Domain will also undergo transformation.

Perhaps doing so may slightly reduce the power of each ultimate move, but in terms of collective gain from Crystal Field Awakening support, it’s a negligible issue.

"Sigh... Another report to write, huh."

Thinking about the unique ultimate move of the prank of fate, Feng Yuan sighed. He had to notify Liao Yu and the others, knowing that those scholars would likely overlook its effect since it hadn’t had much use in the past.

Glancing at Wu Dingwu, Feng Yuan shook his head and said,

"A Parallel Space doesn’t have to be opened by me, or rather, what I’ve done is to secretly open a small door. The real method to enter a Parallel Space isn’t like this."

Feng Yuan didn’t elaborate on matters related to Tamur, as it’s better not to reveal too much about such things. It’s not about not trusting Wu Dingwu; rather, spreading such secrets too widely and expecting confidentiality is almost impossible.

"Time’s getting late; let’s head back. I still have a report to rush. Hmm... Cotton probably can’t learn the prank of fate."

Patting Xiao Ji’s head, Feng Yuan said and mumbled something he thought of. Cotton looked at Feng Yuan in confusion and wagged its tail.
