Enslaving a King-level Monster

Rolling yellow sands rose straight into the sky, while a river of shattered stones, each as large as a peck, scattered across the ground and danced with the wind.

In a valley on the northern side of the western foothills of a mountain range deep in Australia, surrounded by mountains on all four sides, a single peak rose abruptly from the center. Its summit was flat, resembling a dragon's tooth, which left Liu Yun quite astonished.

This was a desert; the daytime temperature hovered around thirty or forty degrees, yet as night fell, even on the high-altitude mountain plateau, light snowflakes began to drift down.

Amidst these snowflakes, dozens of Lord-level Black Panther Beasts and hundreds of War General-level Black Panther Beasts crowded around a King-level beast that resembled a tiger, looking down from their vantage point at the valley floor beneath Dragon Tooth Mountain!

"How about it? Wild Ape, if you have thought it through, surrender to me and I can spare your life."

Tiger King looked down into the valley where countless giant apes were roaring, speaking directly to the largest King-level gorilla in their midst.

The valley was filled with giant apes seven or eight meters tall, each wielding iron rods to resist the Black Panther Beasts surrounding them. It was clear they had been ambushed and were trapped in an unfavorable situation.

Lord-level monsters already possessed high intelligence, and King-level monsters could speak human language directly, so it was only natural that there would be some tactical ambushes involved.

Liu Yun, Yang Xiaolong, Ruby, and the others were hiding in the valley using the stealth function of their Venom Battle Suits. They had stumbled into the encirclement by mistake and had no choice but to remain hidden for the moment.

The Venom Battle Suit was technologically invincible! Whether it was thermal radiation, visible light, sound waves, or scent, it could block everything, so they would not be discovered while hiding here.

"Heavens! There are actually King-level monsters; we're done for!"

Yang Xiaolong used the communication function of the Venom Battle Suit to talk to her teammates. Their voices were currently being shielded; even though they were close enough to touch, only the radio could transmit information between them.

They had been so obsessed with hunting monsters that they had wandered into this place by mistake. At this moment, Xueni could not help but look nervous.

"War God Liu Yun? Do you have any ideas? If this continues, we're finished!"

Her crisp voice was now completely panicked. With two King-level monsters here, not to mention a group of Beast General and Lord-level monsters, they truly had no way to escape.

Liu Yun silently utilized his Psychic Power and rose directly into the air. Before the four women could even cry out in surprise, Liu Yun gently enveloped them with his powerful Psychic Power, isolating them from all external sounds and vibrations. They only felt their bodies surrounded by a warm and solid force, and immediately after, the scenery in their field of vision changed rapidly, as if they were traveling through a tunnel in time and space, arriving at the summit of Dragon Tooth Mountain.

This was the power of a Psychic; Liu Yun could fly, so he simply took them with him, turning a desperate situation into a smooth path.

Of course, Liu Yun was not entirely unromantic; he scooped up the young lady Xueni by the waist and carried her in a princess hold to a safe place.

Xueni felt as if she had been in a dream. When her clear, water-like eyes refocused, what came into view was Liu Yun's firm yet gentle face, along with the steady heartbeat coming from his chest. Her cheeks flushed slightly, and she parted her lips, her voice tinged with shyness and curiosity: "Liu Yun, have you... held me enough yet?"

As soon as these words were spoken, a hint of ambiguity seemed to permeate the air. Hearing this, Liu Yun curled his lips into a faint smile. His gaze swept gently over every face, which looked even more charming due to the fright, and finally rested on Xueni, saying softly: "In this life-or-death moment, having you all by my side is my fortune. However, since we are safe now, it is only natural to let go."

He teased them a few times, and the four women, having escaped danger, did not hold it against him and tacitly accepted Liu Yun's minor transgression! After all, they knew that while this was nominally the Four-Color Squad, it was effectively a harem team.

In a safe location, the group finally had the leisure to watch the beasts scheme against one another. The giant ape, holding its iron rod, roared for a while before also speaking in human language.

"Hmph, Tiger King! You insidious and despicable villain, using the Silver Ape Beast to plot against me! If you have the guts, come down and fight me to the death!"

Wild Ape, the tallest of them all, stood surrounded by Golden Ape Beasts and roared at Tiger King. They were truly in a life-or-death dilemma now; the valley was walled in by mountains on all four sides, which were an insurmountable obstacle for them.

Wild Ape had two great generals: one was the Silver Ape Beast, and the other was the Golden Ape Beast. The Silver Ape Beast had betrayed him, causing him to fall into this predicament!

The Silver Ape Beast stood beside Tiger King, a smug, cold sneer curling its lips, as if it felt great satisfaction at Wild Ape's anger and despair. It responded with a sharp and cunning voice: "Wild Ape, you fancy yourself the overlord of this mountain range, yet you lack the most basic ability to judge character. I, the Silver Ape Beast, have pursued higher status and greater power from the very beginning. What could you possibly give me? Lord Tiger King has promised me a place among the beast race in the future; why wouldn't I take it?"

Hearing this, the rage in Wild Ape's eyes intensified, and he gripped his iron rod so hard it creaked, as if it might shatter at any moment.

"Silver Ape Beast, you traitor! I treated you like a brother, yet you betrayed me and colluded with the enemy! If I can escape this trap, I will surely tear you to pieces!"

Seeing this, Tiger King raised his lips, a hint of playfulness flashing in his eyes.

"Wild Ape, you don't need to be nervous; I won't actually kill you. Today, you only need to cut off your own right arm, and I will spare your life. How about that? Hahahaha!"

Tiger King indicated that as long as Wild Ape severed his own arm, he would let them go. Wild Ape was tempted, but the Golden Ape Beast stopped him.

"Great King! This Tiger King is full of tricks and will certainly not keep his word. The reason he says this is merely to make you mutilate yourself and reduce your combat power!"

The Golden Ape Beast was loyal and devoted, and surprisingly, it could also speak. In fact, some monsters with special talents could speak once they reached the Lord level, such as parrot-type monsters.

Giant apes were close to humans and understood human nature, so it was normal for them to be able to speak, and it had even seen through Tiger King's scheme.

"Hmph, ungrateful wretches! You are courting death!"

Seeing his scheme fail, Tiger King ordered his subordinates to attack. In an instant, the besieged giant apes suffered heavy casualties.

Hearing Tiger King's provocation and order, the rage in the Golden Ape Beast's eyes almost turned into substance. It knew that today's battle was grim, but to protect Wild Ape and the tribe behind it, it made a tragic decision.

"Lord Wild Ape, run! I will carve a path to survival for you!" The Golden Ape Beast's voice echoed through the valley with unquestionable determination. It suddenly tensed its entire body, as if gathering all its strength and fury, and its body began to emit a dazzling light—a sign of extreme energy compression.

"No! Golden Ape Beast, stop!" Wild Ape's eyes were bloodshot as he watched; he knew the Golden Ape Beast was about to self-destruct, sacrificing its life to buy a chance for a counterattack. But it was too late. The energy within the Golden Ape Beast erupted like a volcanic explosion, and the entire valley trembled.

"BOOM!" With a deafening roar, the Golden Ape Beast's body expanded instantly and then exploded, to the shock of everyone present. The power was so great that it shook the surrounding mountains; gravel fell like rain, smoke and dust obscured the sun, and the entire valley was shrouded in chaos.

Tiger King and his Black Panther Beast legion were also caught in the blast of this sudden explosion. Many Black Panther Beasts were blown away by the shockwave, and some even lost their ability to fight entirely. Tiger King pulled the Silver Ape Beast over to use as a meat shield, causing the Silver Ape Beast to shriek.

"What! Tiger King, you despicable villain!"

The Silver Ape Beast was killed instantly, dying with its eyes wide open in resentment. However, Tiger King was briefly suppressed by the explosion.

Liu Yun took the opportunity to reach Tiger King's side while remaining invisible. The enhancement the Venom Battle Suit provided him was immense; how could a mere beast resist?

"Hmph, what a clever big cat. Be my subordinate."

His goal was to tame Tiger King. The crystal on his chest erupted with brilliance, directly enveloping Tiger King!

"No!"

Tiger King only had time to let out a single cry before its consciousness was completely swallowed by the computer. The computing power of the Machine Race Clone was so monstrous that its psychic power was equally so; consuming 40% of his stored energy to control a Planetary Stage Beast King was as easy as a flick of a finger.

All the beast clans enveloped by this radiance became Liu Yun's servants, including Wild Ape, who had been trying to escape.

"Golden Ape Beast, I shouldn't have listened to the Silver Ape Beast's slander, and in the end, I caused your death..."

This was the final thought of Wild Ape, and from that moment on, he was domesticated by the Machine Race Clone; this was also the result of Liu Yun's base being built better and better, providing the Machine Race Clone with increasingly abundant energy.

Whether it was Tiger King or the great ape, both were ultimately brought under Liu Yun's control, leaving Ruby and the others incomparably astonished as they looked at the docile monsters, completely submissive in their hearts and obeying Liu Yun's every word.

These were Beast Kings, and even a Councilor would find it difficult to deal with just one, yet Liu Yun had actually captured two alive; just how powerful was he?

"I think I guessed right! Liu Yun must have obtained the magical power inside the Crystal Ball! He is invincible, the most powerful mage in the world!"

Ruby screamed this as if she had discovered the truth, while the others remained silent, occasionally staring at Liu Yun and the Crystal Ball with extremely fervent eyes.

"Hmm, controlling these monsters is enough for now; later, we can use monsters to kill other monsters."

Liu Yun said this, and Ruby and the others, each riding on a Black Panther Beast, expressed their complete agreement with his opinion.

At this moment, Tiger King and Wild Ape exchanged a glance; now that they shared the same master, there was no need to continue their struggle.

"Reporting to Master, there is a Tyrant Dragon King nearby whose strength is above our own! He has two other Beast Kings serving under him, and I heard not long ago that he went to hunt down the humans who fell onto the continent; you must be careful!"

Tiger King and Wild Ape said this, and Liu Yun nodded to show he understood; they were likely hunting the elites of the Limit Dojo, and he would go to subdue this Tyrant Dragon King right now.
