Recognizing the degree of danger in the Sinking Star River, Chen Fan was a bit frustrated.
Catching this fish isn’t that easy.
When he was a child, whether he was catching fish in the fields or in the river, it was full of fun.
He never thought that in Blue Star, catching fish would mean risking being turned into a sieve!
Thankfully, Snowy was awakened…
Moreover, Snowy is a Thunder attribute Guardian Beast. The attack power of a thunder attribute should be very formidable.
Let’s walk along the riverbank first and look for some paddy wetland water pits.
These places usually have fish, and it is clearly much safer than the Sinking Star River.
Besides, the system can check monster level… If I see a level 3 Blue Scaled Demonic Fish, can’t I just avoid it?
Chen Fan made up his mind and nodded silently.
The fish in the Sinking Star River can help Snowy improve its Combat Power Level and Species Level. Even if the level 3 Blue Scaled Demonic Fish was really dangerous, he was determined to take a crack at it.
After checking the information on the Sinking Star River and Black Ant Forest, Chen Fan started to look at other information about Blue Star.
…
One day, over two thousand years ago.
After the sun set, it didn’t rise the next day.
There were two moons in the sky.
The entire Blue Star fell into a panic, believing that the apocalypse had arrived.
Until the third day, when the sun rose slowly once again.
But in the sky of Blue Star, countless black cracks had appeared…
The cracks lining the sky were mysterious spatial gates, connecting a plethora of bizarre different dimensions.
Some spatial gates were filled with perilous spatial turbulence nearby. Whether it was humans or machinery, anything that made contact with the spatial turbulence would be ripped to shreds.
Some spatial gates stabilized over time, unleashing countless creatures wielding extraordinary powers. These creatures rampaged, plunging Blue Star back into panic.
Strange powers seeped through each spatial gate into Blue Star, causing transformative changes, almost like a rebirth…
On one hand, plants and animals began to grow wildly, mutating…
Mountains, rivers, and plants could evolve into spirits, even antique swords could give birth to souls.
Every living creature had the possibility of extraordinary evolution.
Awakened creatures all wielded powerful powers, like wind, rain, lightning, fire, hurricanes… they threatened humanity like divine beasts out of myths.
But on the other hand, humans awakened their bloodline powers, and extraordinary powers!
Bloodline powers were a hidden force deep within human souls…many people could manifest a different space in their mind through meditation. It was used to communicate with and cultivate extraordinary creatures and was thus referred to as “Beastmaster Power”.
Extraordinary power, known as “Star Power”, was a force humans came to command after the spatial gates spewed out strange energies.
Those who awakened Star Power, not necessarily awakened Beastmaster Power.
Yet, those who awoke their Beastmaster Power certainly awakened Star Power!
People who could only use Star Power for cultivation were coined “Star Martial Artists”.
Those who possessed both Star Power and Beastmaster Power were hailed as “Guardian Beastmasters”.
Although Star Martial Artists could also cultivate to greatness, the vast majority of them were merely foils to Guardian Beastmasters.
Because Guardian Beastmasters changed the entire world!
When countless extraordinary monsters appeared on Blue Star, human living space was greatly reduced, and faced a vast crisis.
But the Appearance of Guardian Beastmasters changed this situation!
After the mutation, monsters were widespread across Blue Star, posing a tremendous threat to humans.
Forget about the cold weapons of two thousand years ago, even modern firearms could only work on relatively weaker monsters, and were hard-pressed to threaten the stronger ones!
Humans were almost driven to desperation, forced to eke out an existence in corners and protect themselves.
Until the Guardian Beastmasters appeared…
Guardian Beastmasters made contracts with many monsters, providing humans with powerful allies, and turned around the human’s oppressive predicament!
“Monster” is actually a broad term…
Whether hailing from other worlds, or mutations of Blue Star’s flora and fauna, all extraordinary creatures aside from humans were labelled as “monsters”.
Awakened beasts and birds;
Mutated plants of all kinds;
Ancient swords that had borne spirits;
Fire Sprites that awakened in volcanic lands;
Water Sprites born in lakes;
Even Goblins crawling out from the fissures…
All these monsters could form contracts with Guardian Beastmasters, becoming their partners, known as “Guardian Beasts”.
Guardian Beasts and Guardian Beastmasters can provoke each other and grow together!
In the beginning, humans only captured weak extraordinary monsters, or hatched their eggs and then made contracts with them.
But after many years, both humans and extraordinary monsters discovered… Extraordinary monsters in the Beastmaster’s Space grow incredibly fast, almost multiple times faster than in the outside world!
Additionally, within the Beastmaster’s Space, Guardian Beasts can more easily break through species limitations, achieving unimaginable extraordinary evolution!
Many awakened intelligent extraordinary monsters began actively seeking contracts with humans, hoping to take advantage of the human’s “Beastmaster’s Space” for rapid growth and to break through combat and species limits.
Just like that…
Powerful Guardian Beastmasters, leading powerful Guardian Beasts, gave humanity a glimmer of hope for their rise!
Many years later, the entire world was once again dominated by humans!
Powerful Guardian Beastmasters and Star Martial Artists joined forces to build one main city after another, resisting the invasions of terrifying monsters and alien races.
Several years after that…
Humanity established a brilliant Beastmaster civilization, stepped out of the main cities, and began to explore the world behind one spatial gate after another.
…
“Blue Star, Beastmaster World, Golden Age…”
“I think I get it.”
“It really makes one look forward to it…”
Chen Fan raised his head and looked at the sky.
Looking eastward from the square, there were clearly seven cracks distributed across the distant sky!
There are seven spatial gates near East Sea City?
Among these, how many are stable enough for humans to enter for exploration?
Chen Fan blinked, not dwelling on the matter of the cracks.
Anyway, with his current strength, he was definitely not qualified to enter those secret realms for exploration.
The Black Ant Forest, filled with many level 1 and 2 Iron-eating Black Ants and Holy Beetles, was already brimming with danger for him.
Chen Fan slowly scrolled through the information on the Beastmaster forum with his fingers.
At that moment, groups of soldiers came over, guiding the crowd to line up again, and then distribute weapons.
Along the edge of the square, there were rows of weapon racks.
All of them were cold weapons.
Swords, spears, axes, hammers, shields…
Chen Fan’s gaze quickly swept across the weapon rack, and he picked up a fishing spear and a dagger.
The longer the weapon, the stronger it is.
The fishing spear is very handy for spearing fish or dealing with other monsters.
The sword and knife are cool, but he hasn’t started training yet. Without star power or any swordsmanship skills, he would just be hacking aimlessly. They are far less practical compared to a fishing spear.
As for the dagger, Chen Fan purely prepared it for slaughtering fish.
Afterward, Chen Fan lined up with the crowd again and received a small bag of food and water.
The food was three palm-sized loaves of bread, a chicken leg, and a bottle of water.
Everyone looked at the scant amount of food, and complaints arose, but with the Wild Savage Ape and other terrifying Guardian Beasts present, no one dared to voice their complaints loudly.
…
“Alright!”
The woman on the Wild Savage Ape’s shoulder clapped her hands and announced loudly, “The sun has risen, and I will lead the team to leave. You should find people to form teams and prepare to enter the ‘Black Ant Forest’.”
“In the ‘Black Ant Forest’, we have safety houses made of Deep Sea Refined Steel which can withstand monster attacks.”
“You can enter the safety houses at night, but you must leave after dawn.”
“Also, the number of safety houses is limited.”
“At night, many of you may have to camp outdoors.”
Ignoring the people’s complaints and noise, the woman waved her arm and led the team away.
As soon as they left, the square immediately erupted into chaos.
Those making noise made noise, those teaming up formed teams, everyone was in a mess.
To everyone, Chen Fan, who had not awakened any talent and had a rather lean physique, was completely disregarded for teaming up.
The young man with glasses wanted to call out to Chen Fan but was pulled away by his companions.action
Chen Fan didn’t mind, and while the chaos ensued, he squeezed into the forest with his fishing spear, heading towards the Sinking Star River marked on the map.
First, get a little farther from the crowd…
Find a place where there is no one, and see if he can sign a contract with Snowy.
He was getting a little impatient…
