After using cheats, I became the strongest Beast Tamer

Moreover, Chen Xing was not wrong; the item stored in the depths of the warehouse truly resembled what Chen Xing had described. From this point of view, Chen Xing's words held much credibility.

In fact, the object inside was not sealed!

It just lay in a dormant state.

Nobody was capable of sealing it either.

Dean Ran spoke gravely, "Do you know what it is inside?"

Chen Xing shook his head.

Dean Ran fell silent for a long time before saying, "This skull appeared suddenly in our territory. Its outward form is that of a white goat skull. Prolonged contact with it can affect the dietary habits of a species, to the extent that even a carnivorous tiger that has consumed meat its whole life will turn into a creature that only knows to eat vegetation."

Moreover, up to now, no method to destroy it had been found, so the skull was sealed in the school warehouse.

"Capable of changing dietary habits?" Chen Xing was somewhat astonished; in a way, this was tantamount to altering cognition.

But what confused him was why such a dangerous object was placed deep within the school.

Seeming to perceive Chen Xing's puzzlement, Dean Ran continued, "Physical contact with its surface alone can change dietary habits. As long as one does not make direct contact, there will be no effect."

Moreover, it's only necessary to allow a herbivorous Beast Taming to touch it, and besides, it's not without its benefits."

Dean Ran did not elaborate on the specific benefits.

He then confirmed, "Can it emerge from a Different Space?"

Chen Xing shook his head, "I'm not sure."

Dean Ran pondered for a moment, "Take me in to have a look."

"Are you sure?" Chen Xing inquired.

"Let's go in. If there's danger, I will shield you first," Dean Ran said with a smile that was not quite a smile. "Plus, without verifying the situation, would you dare to use your ability to enter Different Spaces casually in the future?"

Entering Different Spaces was a general term.

Beyond the Main Plane, there floated several different planes.

These planes varied in size; some like the Dark Realm were akin to the shadowy side of the world, while others were much smaller.

The ability to enter these planes was collectively referred to by others as entering Different Spaces.

Because most people, even if pulled into one, would not know which plane they had entered.

Chen Xing felt Dean Ran made sense. If there were problems in the Dark Realm, it would be a ticking time bomb.

With a wave of Dean Ran's hand, a tremendous nine-colored rainbow trout appeared in the sky.

Enshrouded in colorful radiance, its wings fluttered slightly, freely soaring through the air.

[Species] Night Nine-Colored Rainbow Trout

[Power Level] 184

[Energy Level Limit] 184

[Attributes] Space, Water

[Spatial Affinity] 70

[Divinity] 11 (Divinity Amplification: Defense +2, Magic Power +1)

[Body Length] 74 meters

[Wingspan] 98 meters

[Weight] 4510 tons

This was the Beast Taming with the highest energy level that Chen Xing had seen so far.

Transcendence Level Nine!

Chen Xing summoned Sìxiàng, taking both Dean Ran and his Beast Taming into the Dark Realm.

Upon entering the Dark Realm, they saw the Dark Realm Nine-Colored Rainbow Trout spread its wings.

Dense ripples of void turbulence fell from the sky, layer upon layer, visible to the naked eye, spreading outwards.

It quickly covered the nearby area.

The pervasive black mist around them was dispersed, leaving a blank space.

Only then did Chen Xing realize that the warehouse had been filled with black mist at some unknown time.

This black mist was all too familiar to Chen Xing; after a moment of thought, wasn't this the very same black mist commonly seen in the wilderness of the Dark Realm!

But he distinctly saw that the black mist had surged out from the room deep in the warehouse where the goat skull was confined.

Could it be that these black mists and the goat skull were somehow connected?

Yet previously, in the wilderness, he had seen vast amounts of black mist gushing out from the fissures in the ground.

Could it also have been released by the goat head?

If it wasn't released by the goat head, does that mean there are similar things elsewhere in the Dark Realm?

At this thought, Chen Xing's heart sank.

"It indeed is it."

Director Ran's voice came from beside Chen Xing's ear. As he came back to his senses, he saw Director Ran's Dark Night Rainbow Trout dispelling the surrounding black mist, exposing the scenery deep within the warehouse.

The alloy doors were wide open, and lying inside was a nearly ten-meter-tall goat head with its eyes tightly shut. The snow-white goatee whiskers seemed alive, gently undulating at a fixed frequency as if blown by breath.

At the same time, black mist continuously billowed out from where the neck of the goat head was severed, the source of the mist they had encountered!

"Are you sure it was looking at you with its eyes open earlier?" Director Ran asked Chen Xing.

"It definitely was looking at me with its eyes open just now," Chen Xing nodded.

"Attack it," Director Ran ordered.

The Dark Night Rainbow Trout flapped its wings, and a black crack as thin as a chopstick appeared in the void before rapidly approaching the goat head like a flickering lightning bolt.

The sight of this spatial crack sent a chill down Chen Xing's spine, his instinct for danger accelerating his heartbeat.

But as it neared the head, a bizarre scene unfolded. As if sucked in by an invisible force, the spatial crack twisted like putty into a mosquito coil, then shrank continuously until it vanished into a black dot and disappeared into space.

The only change on the goat head was a tuft of hair on its cheek that stirred slightly.

"..."

Chen Xing was certain that if this skill was aimed at a Four Phases creature, unless it could dodge, it would certainly end up as a lump of wood.

"It seems to have fallen back into slumber, but I'm curious how this door opened—was it someone else... or did it open on its own?" Director Ran mused.

After speaking, the Dark Night Rainbow Trout flapped its wings, and the power of space surged.

Bang!

The alloy doors slammed shut with a clang.

"This state of its has persisted for hundreds of years," Director Ran observed the surroundings. "Which plane is this? It seems to be completely identical in proportion to the real world."

Chen Xing replied, "The Dark Realm."

The Dark Realm wasn't exactly top secret; Director Ran could find out with a little bit of inquiry.

Since he had brought her into the Dark Realm, Chen Xing didn't intend to hide its reality.

"I've never heard of it," Director Ran shook her head. "Let's go out then, as long as in the Dark Realm you stay away, there shouldn't be a problem."

The goat head's ability to appear in the Dark Realm was already strange enough, whether it could leave the Dark Realm was something he truly did not know.

Moreover, after this incident, if he were to enter the Dark Realm again in the future, he'd probably have to be more cautious, especially when entering near the school.

After coming out from the Dark Realm, Director Ran said, "Don't come here to work part-time for the time being. The school's logistics department will take over this area, we'll discuss it again after some time."

Chen Xing was numb, but he still nodded.

"Okay."

...

Afterward, Director Huang found Chen Xing and gave a mysterious smile, pulling a large parcel from his storage ring.

"This is what you asked for."

Chen Xing took the package, "Thanks, Brother Huang, how much? I'll transfer it to you."

"No need, we're friends. It's tacky to talk about money," Director Huang said with a smile. "Also, lately, don't just help other students."
Continue your journey with empire

Hearing Director Huang's warning, Chen Xing, who was about to leave, paused with confusion.

"I've heard some rumors, there might be some turbulence recently, and this incident could be related to some desperate noble families," Director Huang mentioned.

Chen Xing's expression shifted slightly, "Brother Huang, has something big happened recently?"

"I also heard about it. Apparently, the higher-ups are dealing with some families that are too deeply involved with external forces, like the Liú Family, for instance. It's normal that you wouldn't have heard anything since you're usually at school," Director Huang explained.

Director Huang knew some inside information thanks to a warning from his brother-in-law.

His brother-in-law advised him to keep a low profile and not to agree to requests from others easily, especially to avoid getting too entangled with the big families.

"If some students from noble families at school ask for your help, it's best not to get involved carelessly," Director Huang cautioned with good intentions. After all, he had invested quite a bit in Chen Xing, and it would be a pity if it all went to waste.

Chen Xing acknowledged his understanding and expressed his thanks to Director Huang once more.

Upon returning to his place from the part-time job, Chen Xing opened the package to find a beautifully crafted stele that was very similar to one he had used before.

Alongside, there was a user manual.

After browsing through it, he learned that the Unity of Heavenly Aspects Stele worked the same way as the previous one.

One just needed to hold it to enjoy the pleasure of knowledge entering the mind.
