After Using Cheats, I Became The Strongest Beast Tamer-Chapter 553 - 406: The Way to Buy When You’re Broke

Chapter 553 -406: The Way to Buy When You’re Broke

“Is he dead?”

“No.”

Sìxiàng reached out toward the void, pushing aside the dust on the ground.

Even in this state—prostrate on the ground with his face up—the Minotaur War God’s body still harbored a wisp of breath, like the flicker of a candle in the wind.

His eyes were tightly closed, his breath faint as spider silk.

“Still not dead, these gods are truly difficult to kill,” Chen Xing remarked with some emotion upon witnessing this scene within the Soul Space of Sìxiàng.

The Minotaur War God lying on the ground opened his eyes at some point. Though his breath was weak, his gaze was calm.

He had lost once before when his authority was shattered, but that was a group assault. Even though he lost, he didn’t accept it.

But this time, having been defeated in direct combat, especially by an opponent whose rank was lower than his, he couldn’t help feeling disheartened.

What’s the point of all the scheming over the years then?

“The younger generations are indeed formidable, invoking divine retribution with mortal flesh. Even those who tread the Epic Path didn’t have your kind of talent. Come then, kill me,” the Minotaur War God said with a sigh, and then closed his eyes.

“Are you the first of the gods to awaken?”

The Minotaur War God opened his eyes and said faintly, “Unless something unexpected happens, I should be the first to awaken.”

After a pause, he added, “Although I’m the first to be revived, I am not the weakest. My early revival was only because I willingly disintegrated my Divine Status before falling into slumber. My intention was to be the first to revive and seize the advantage, but unfortunately…” freewebnøvel.com

Chen Xing could guess what his ‘unfortunately’ referred to—it was encountering Sìxiàng.

It was uncertain if meeting Sìxiàng right after revival was lucky or unlucky for the Minotaur War God.

The Tenth Step of Ascension combined with the Divine Position of the Lord of the Dark Realm, then engaging in battle in the home ground of the Dark Realm, along with wielding a Divine Artifact, various ingredients to enhance Sìxiàng’s attributes, and most importantly the confinement of authority.

It could be said that Sìxiàng had not yet attained divinity, but his foundation was perhaps even more profound than some of the gods.

Sìxiàng nodded in appreciation, “To have battled with me for so long, you’re quite impressive.”

Upon hearing Sìxiàng’s words, the Minotaur War God was first stunned, then he laughed.

Wasn’t that his own catchphrase, turned upside down?

“Now it seems you are more suited to the Divine Position of the War God than I am,” the Minotaur War God said. “Even though my Divine Status now retains only weak Divine Power, there are gods with mere minor powers who cannot match me. Yet I happened to encounter a monster like you.”

“Divine Position of the War God, you’re actually a War God?”

The Minotaur War God was silent for a moment, “Sort of. A War God without authority, simply retaining the Divine Position of a War God. I wanted to go to your world to search for an authority related to the War God, but it seems there’s no chance now.”

Sìxiàng shook his head, “Then I must disappoint you. Our world has no authority, to be exact, the authority has not manifested.”

“That may not be true. If conventional methods don’t work, unconventional ones can be used,” the Minotaur War God said eerily.

“Do you have a way?” Sìxiàng asked.

Although he had inherited memories about the authority, the only method he knew was to communicate with the corresponding high-level authority through perfected Laws.

From what he was saying, it seemed there were other ways.

“Want to know? I’ll teach you. But you have to do me a favor and kill someone for me when you become strong enough in the future.”

“Who?”

“The God of Eternal Night,” the Minotaur War God said with a hint of Rage flickering in his eyes. “That despicable coward ambushed me from behind when I was dealing with the Great Demon, even trying to plunder my authority. I would rather shatter the Fighting authority than leave an intact one for that lowlife.”

Chen Xing recognized a familiar name—this was someone listed in Taotie’s little notebook.

This person was already an enemy.

“I accept,” Sìxiàng conveyed his master’s response. “My master agrees.”

“Good, I’ll teach you now. Not many gods know the method I spoke of. Do you know what authority is?” Before Sìxiàng could reply, the Minotaur War God rambled on, “Since the birth of this world, it spawned laws. Laws are rationales that transcend Laws; if Laws are the keystones that construct everything, then laws are the palaces built from these keystones. The crown in the palace studded with gems is the cultivated authority.”

“Just as the moon gives rise to all rules related to itself, some powerful beings are born along with the rules, innately predisposed to wield the accompanying rules, and they were the earliest batch of innate divine beings. For instance, the Dragon Clan’s Chaos Holy Dragon, the Sea Clan’s Foremost Ancient Demon of the Seas, and the Supreme of the Sky’s Horizon that thrives in the Starry Sea.”

Chen Xing heard another familiar name.

Taotie’s upper lineage—the Supreme of the Sky’s Horizon.

In his estimation, the Supreme of the Sky’s Horizon was a bloodline of color quality, implying that these powerful innate divine beings born along with rules were equivalent to bloodlines of color quality.

The relationship between the Dragon Clan’s Chaos Holy Dragon and Dong Jun’s Chaotic Extreme Ash Dragon was unknown; after all, both bore the word ‘Chaos’ and belonged to the Dragon Clan.

“Later, some innate gods thought the world too vast and began to create various lives; coupled with beings naturally birthed by the world, this world’s Species became more numerous and chaotic, culminating in the first War of Gods, where many of the existing Ancient Gods rose up.”

“What does this have to do with authority?” Sìxiàng furrowed his brow, the confinement of authority in his hands deepened, and it turned into a tight gray net covering the Minotaur War God so tightly that there was no chance of escape.

“You young one, show a little patience. Those innate gods had long ceased to make themselves known by the time of the first War of Gods, and without their repression, the entire world might as well have been in complete chaos. At that time, no one knew how to use authority. Some directly refined authority into their bodies and became one with the path; their entire being became part of the authority, like a drop of water merging into a lake.”

Listening to this, Sìxiàng couldn’t help but be shocked.

Whose warrior might be so fearless?

Having inherited the legacy’s memory, he was distinctly aware of authority’s existence; it could be said that authority was the embodiment of the rules, a manifestation in the real world.

If one were to speak in a more mythical sense, it was part of the “path.”

Hence, Sìxiàng wielding the confined authority could detain the body characteristics of the Minotaur War God.

Of course, authority itself was just a key to the rules; how much power it could exert still depended on the wielder.

Refining authority into one’s body was essentially melting oneself into the “path,” and then there should be no existence left.

“It was like this in the beginning. Everyone was exploring, including the methods to obtain authority that were figured out during that period at the cost of lives. Unfortunately, most of my contemporaries died out, and I was lucky enough to survive until now,” the Minotaur War God said with some melancholy.

“Authority is like goods in a shop; there’s one way to buy if you have money, and there’s another if you don’t… lean in closer, and I’ll tell you…”

After listening to the Minotaur War God’s method, Sìxiàng was somewhat skeptical, “Will it work?”

“Why don’t you try it and see?”
