11: Chapter 11 The Divine Beast Bai Ze Descends!
After unilaterally cutting off the communication, the living room finally became quiet.
Lin Feng closed his eyes and completely immersed his divine sense into the Chaos Territory.
On the vast wasteland, purple qi lingered.
Sensing the arrival of the Creator's aura, the ancient ferocious beast slumbering in the heart of the mountains slowly opened its eyes.
“Welcome, Chaos Overlord.”
Taotie shifted its mountain-sized body, and the ground for several kilometers around immediately shook violently.
Looking at this giant beast whose size was ridiculously exaggerated, Lin Feng couldn't help but complain inwardly.
If he told anyone, they probably wouldn't believe that this thing was currently still only in its larval stage.
If it were to reach full adulthood, just how large would it grow?
Swallowing several planets in one bite probably wouldn't be a joke.
“Business first, let's set up a ranch.”
With a thought, Lin Feng took out the Breeze Plains Card and tossed it into the air along with the sealing crystals containing the Fat-Wool Sheep and Iron-Hoof Cows.
“System, activate the Plains card.”
“Plains card activated. Please select the coverage area; the current upper limit is 10,000 square kilometers,” the cold mechanical voice responded immediately.
Lin Feng didn't hesitate and directly maxed out the value.
“Coverage coordinates confirmed.”
In the blink of an eye, a flat and vast emerald-green grassland spread out from thin air on the barren ground.
The lifeless Chaos Plane finally gained a touch of vibrant color.
However, the chaos purple qi permeating the surroundings was lethally toxic to ordinary life.
Fortunately, Lin Feng was now a Rank 2 Deity, and his control over the laws of the plane had increased manifold.
He mobilized his divine power, pushing away the toxic purple qi within the grassland's range like pushing back ocean waves, forcibly carving out a safe zone.
With the environmental modification complete, two million Rank 0 livestock were released onto the grass.
The cattle and sheep, having regained their freedom, quickly adapted to the new environment and began to lower their heads to munch on the fresh green grass.
Smelling the thick scent of flesh and blood, the Taotie in the distance immediately became restless, its crimson vertical pupils staring intently at the grassland as it drooled.
“Listen up, you can only eat a maximum of ten thousand head of the reserve livestock here per day.”
Lin Feng issued a cold divine oracle.
Draining the pond to catch the fish would only lead to a dead end; letting them breed continuously and taking a steady, small stream was the only way to ensure there was meat for every meal.
“As you wish, Great Overlord.”
Although the ferocious beast hidden behind the purple mist was greedy, it still respectfully lowered its head.
Lin Feng glanced at the holographic panel.
After throwing in a full two million living creatures, the territory's comprehensive combat power hadn't increased by even a single point.
As expected, Rank 0 livestock without any intelligence weren't even considered cannon fodder in the system's judgment.
“System, use the Plane Expansion Scroll.”
“Expansion Scroll has taken effect!”
Accompanied by bursts of dull rumbling, the edges of the Chaos Territory expanded outward frantically, its area instantly skyrocketing by 300,000 square kilometers.
“Continue, activate the Forest Terrain Card, range 100,000 square kilometers!”
This scene card, which he had opened from the novice blind box, was clearly of a higher grade than the ordinary goods in the trade firm.
The card transformed into ten thousand streaks of light, directly transforming a large area of bald wasteland into a vibrant primitive ancient forest.
The terrain in the ancient forest was intricate, featuring not only giant trees reaching into the clouds but also winding streams, hidden underground caves, and some non-threatening basic insects.
Now that the infrastructure was built, the next step was the farming phase.
Lin Feng opened his backpack, took out all the rare spiritual herbs he had purchased for a high price that afternoon, categorized them, and planted them one by one according to their habits.
The sun-loving Blazing Sun Vermilion Fruits were planted at the top of precipitous cliffs.
The water-loving Ice Jade Bodhi Flowers were submerged deep into the bottom of the lake.
In the dark and damp caves, he planted Nine-Leaf Star Grass...
He busied himself for a full hour before finally getting all the medicinal ingredients settled.
Everything was ready; it was time for the new resident to make its appearance.
“System, unseal the Bai Ze Awakening Card.”
“Divine Beast awakening procedure initiated. This is a one-way operation and is irreversible.”
As soon as the words fell, a gold card printed with complex array patterns shone brilliantly in mid-air.
The radiant, holy light dispersed the gloom, and a sacred silhouette gradually took shape within the light.
It had the body of a lion, the horns of a ram, was covered in long hair as white as snow, and had wings on its back.
With every flap of its wings, it scattered specks of fluorescence.
The Divine Beast Bai Ze had officially descended!
It was stunning.
According to the illustrated records, Bai Ze was an absolute auspicious sign between heaven and earth, capable of warding off all evils and knowing the principles of all things.
Just looking at its appearance, it was far superior to the dusty-faced Taotie.
Just as Lin Feng was secretly marveling, a drooling voice suddenly rang out.
“Overlord, is this also a new after-dinner dessert added today?”
Taotie poked its massive head out from the valley, staring fixedly at the auspicious beast in mid-air.
“Eat, eat, eat, all you know is eating!”
Lin Feng's face was covered in black lines. “This is your roommate from now on! If anyone dares to touch a single hair on its body, I'll skin them alive!”
“...Your subordinate understands.”
Taotie rolled over aggrievedly, shaking several mountain peaks, and closed its eyes to continue its nap.
One was a peerless ferocious creature that ruled over slaughter, and the other was a sacred auspicious beast representing peace.
Their horoscopes were naturally incompatible; it was normal for them to find each other an eyesore.
However, as long as Lin Feng, the Creator, was there to hold the fort, no one could stir up any trouble.
“I am the Chaos Overlord. State your name.”
Lin Feng put on an air of authority, his voice echoing through the sky like rolling thunder.
The newborn divine beast landed on a thick branch of an ancient tree, its eyes clear.
“My name is Bai Ze. You are... the ruler of this world?”
“Submit to me, and I shall grant you supreme opportunity.”
Lin Feng continued to paint a grand picture.
As for what that specific opportunity was, he didn't even know himself yet; he had to fool it first.
Sensing the vast and boundless pressure of the plane from above the firmament, Bai Ze slowly folded its wings.
“Bai Ze is willing to serve the Overlord!”
“Very good.”
Lin Feng nodded in satisfaction and pointed toward the vast primitive ancient forest below. “I've planted many high-grade spiritual herbs in the forest specifically for you to eat.”
“However, be mindful when eating; leave some seeds and roots so that new ones can grow back in a few days.”
Raising a divine beast wasn't easy; he had to implement a sustainable development strategy.
“I shall obey the Overlord's decree.”
Bai Ze bent its knees slightly, performing an extremely respectful ancient salute.
Then it took to the sky, transforming into a brilliant white meteor and diving into the depths of the lush sea of trees.
