Beast Taming: Bloodline Golden Hand

"Boom——!!!!!!!"

In that instant, time seemed to freeze.

Accompanied by a massive crackling sound, the golden dragon claw, shrouded in an ancient aura, did not fall towards Lin Chen as everyone expected. Instead, it struck Xuanyuan Cang's vital reverse scale with the force of a meteor!

This was a bloodline suppression from the Ancestor Dragon, a long-planned backstab.

"Roar——!!!"

An extremely tragic wail tore through the battlefield's clamor.

A torrent of golden dragon blood poured down like scalding lava, piercing countless holes in the clouds.

Xuanyuan Cang's once formidable life-bound golden dragon, its spine was fractured on the spot, and its massive body crashed heavily into the ground like a falling star, kicking up a cloud of dust.

"Pfft—!"

With his mind linked, Xuanyuan Cang spat out essence blood, stumbling backward in the air, his hair disheveled.

He stared intently at the Ancestor Dragon coiling beneath Gu Ning, his eyes filled with disbelief and enraged absurdity:

"Gu Ning!! Are you insane?!"

"You dare betray the Divine Race?!"

The sudden scene plunged the entire audience into complete silence.

Whether it was the Spirit Alliance Beastmasters fighting bloodily or the previously sycophantic Gu Youshan, there was a momentary blankness in their minds.

One moment they thought Gu Ning was there to aid the Divine Race, and the next the scene had completely changed.

....

High above, Gu Ning, indifferent, guided the Ancestor Dragon to turn its head, facing off against a bloodstained Lin Chen in the sky.

Their eyes met amidst the burning sky.

No gratitude, no pleasantries, just a cold smile tinged with blood.

They remain arch-enemies, with irreconcilable differences.

But for the grand cause of "the survival of the Human Race," Gu Ning held onto his final bottom line as the National Preceptor.

He wouldn't allow anyone to turn Cangling Ancient Country into an Alien Race's pasture.

That day, he and Lin Chen did not fight to the death but exchanged only one move, an understanding between them that they'd first eliminate the Divine Race for peace to prevail in this world.

Hence, Lin Chen had long anticipated Gu Ning's arrival today.

Gu Ning's lips curled into a mocking arc, holding the seal of the Dragon Transformation Skill as he loudly declared:

"This is the human realm, not the divine domain."

"This is the Cangling Ancient Country!"

"I am the seventh generation National Preceptor of the Cangling Ancient Country... Gu Ning!"

With these words, everyone swallowed hard, and many people's pupils lit up.

For many, the National Preceptor of the Cangling Ancient Country represents a force of belief.

The existence of the National Preceptor is to guard the lands of the Cangling Ancient Country!

"Celestial Capital, heed my command!"

"The Divine Race seeks to enslave our Human Race; their crime is unforgivable!"

"Kill——!!!"

This shout of "Kill" was like the final spark igniting a powder keg.

Gu Youshan and others exchanged glances, their faces pale as paper.

They knew, once the battle started, there was no retreat for the Celestial Capital.

"Patriarch, what do we do?"

"What else can we do?!"

Gu Youshan looked at Gu Ning's determined back, then at the furious Divine Race, steeling his heart and gritting his teeth as he roared:

"For the Human Race!"

"For the Cangling Ancient Country!"

Rumble——

The wheels of history suddenly turned.

The Celestial Capital army, initially watching or even opposing, instantly turned their weapons, summoning Spirit Beasts like caged tigers pouncing on the unguarded Divine Race army nearby.

Celestial Capital, Spirit Alliance, Western Alliance.

These three forces representing the Human Race's pinnacle combat power finally converged.

A truly epic battle erupted!

This was no longer a one-sided massacre but a deadly struggle for survival and dignity between the two races.

Outside Thunder City transformed into a massive Asura Field.

Blood flowed like rivers, staining the ground a ghastly dark red, and dismembered limbs were everywhere, while the air was thick with the stench of blood and burnt flesh.

The battle lasted an entire day and night.

Initially, the Divine Race, relying on their deep foundations and the lingering power of high-tier strength, fiercely counterattacked, attempting to suppress these "rebellious ants."

However, as time passed, the four super elders grew increasingly alarmed and desperate as they fought.

They were horrified to find that these Humans had changed.

They fought with a desperate madness born from decades of repression, a terrifying resilience unleashed.

On the high-end battlefield, the Divine Race fared no better; Qin Shaoshao was covered in blood, yet her eyes burned brightly.

Her World Tree thrived, completely dominating the battlefield.

The once withered World Tree, fed on the blood energy of the battlefield, came back to life!

The emerald branches, like rampant tentacles, tightly wrapped around five Divine Beast attackers, crushing them into pulp on the spot.

On the battlefield's west side, Bai Ling resembled an Asura returned from hell.

The Calamity-Devouring Beast was already killing rampantly, having lost count of how many Spirit Beasts it had devoured.

The once domineering black-jade Qilin had a hind leg violently torn off by it and was howling in agony.

The abyss domain reopened, becoming a nightmare for all nearby enemies.

But what terrified the Divine Race the most were those two young men.

Lin Chen and Gu Ning.

Like two sharpest blades, they weaved through the Divine Race's formation.

"Slosh!"

Gu Ning, riding the Ancestor Dragon, snapped his dragon's tail, smashing the Divine Tiger Race's supreme elder Ji Lie's life-bound white tiger into pulp. Amid the rain of blood, the elder, known for his ruthlessness, fell with a scream.

On the other side, Lin Chen and Xiaobai directly decapitated the already severely wounded Phoenix Race's supreme elder Gu Yue and her Divine Phoenix!

...

When the first light of dawn pierced the clouds, illuminating this Asura Field, the sounds of battle gradually diminished.

High in the sky, the Divine Race's forces remained substantial, but by then, the Human Race could already contend.

Lin Chen rode on the blood-soaked Xiaobai...

Gu Ning stood atop the brilliantly glowing head of the Ancestor Dragon.

The two of them, one on each side, trapped the nearly lifeless Xuanyuan Cang and his Spirit Beast.

Xuanyuan Cang trembled, looking around.

Among the Divine Race, many were dead or wounded.

Though there were no signs of collapse yet, it was clear to everyone that the Human Race, long suffering under the Divine Race, was now fighting with renewed determination.

"How could... how could this happen..."

Xuanyuan Cang muttered to himself, unable to accept the reality.

The once superior Divine Race had actually been defeated by these insects in his eyes?

"There's nothing impossible."

Lin Chen's voice was hoarse as he coldly watched Xuanyuan Cang:

"You've been arrogant for too long."

"You don't understand, war is the fastest way to progress."

Instinctively, Xuanyuan Cang backed away, but Gu Ning's Ancestor Dragon let out a low growl, blocking Xuanyuan Cang's last retreat.

Lin Chen took a deep breath, looking at Xuanyuan Cang without pity.

He had no intention of giving the Divine Race a chance.

Because they were too terrifying, if he could eliminate them in one go, he must not show mercy.

"It's over!"

Lin Chen and Gu Ning, attacking from front and back, aimed to kill Xuanyuan Cang directly.

At this moment, Xuanyuan Cang knelt on the ground, shouting towards the sky:

"Clan leader, save me!"
