Chapter 525: [Special Release 1/3] Heavenly Beast Sovereign
There were many reasons why Ethan was very interested in helping Shadow Bee with his breakthrough, like:
[1) With a Golden Core Realm Cultivation Shadow Bee could gain control over the Primal Beast Enclave, which could be used as a temporary shelter for his subordinates and beasts.]
[2) Shadow Bee's loyalty towards him will be further strengthened]
[3) To learn more about the Secret Enclaves]
However, compared to all these, there was one most important reason, and it was none other than to complete the system mission.
One of the rewards for completing the system mission was the free upgrade of his Primal Beast Sovereign into a Heavenly Talent.
With each new Heavenly Talent, Ethan was becoming incredibly stronger. So, he was very excited about the series of system notifications after Shadow Bee successfully broke through to the Golden Core Realm.
[The host received an additional reward for completing the mission: 1 million Life Points]
With his current accumulated Life Points of more than 12 billion Life Points, one million Life Points no longer excited him.
Nevertheless, he liked the additional reward.
"Congratulations, Shadow Bee."
Even though he was excited about his new Heavenly Talent, Ethan controlled himself as he congratulated Shadow Bee.
"It is all thanks to Brother Ethan's help. Without you, I don't think I would be able to peacefully break through to the Golden Core Realm in my tribe's Secret Enclave."
Shadow Bee shook his head as he gave the full credit to Ethan, which was obviously a fact that even Ethan could not reject.
No matter how powerful Shadow Bee was, it was almost impossible to kill a Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator, not to mention there were two High-level Nascent Soul Realm Cultivators in the Secret Enclave.
So, Shadow Bee thanked Ethan from the bottom of his heart as he silently swore, 'I will repay you for helping me reclaim my tribe even if it costs my life.'
Shadow Bee had thought it was almost impossible for him to reclaim the Primal Beast Enclave, the treasured land of his tribe.
With the Primal Beast Enclave, even without further help from Ethan, Shadow Bee was absolutely confident in taking revenge against the Bloodclaw Tribe.
Therefore, Shadow Bee felt that he was eternally grateful for Ethan's help, that he would do anything for Ethan.
[Shadow Bee's loyalty towards the host is increasing]
[Shadow Bee's loyalty is already at 100 points. His loyalty will be set at 100 points, and it won't decrease anymore.]
'Huh? The loyalty won't decrease anymore?'
Ethan was pleasantly surprised by the system notifications.
When the loyalty of regular subordinates reaches 100 percent, it won't decrease; however, things are different for the Heavenly Sons like Shadow Bee.
Depending on Ethan's actions, like committing evil and demonic things, Shadow Bee's loyalty might decrease.
However, now, the system confirmed that Shadow Bee's loyalty towards him won't decrease even if Ethan commits evil actions.
'So, the true purpose of that system mission was to permanently strengthen Shadow Bee's loyalty.'
Thinking about it, Ethan understood the real meaning behind the system's mission.
"Shadow Bee, can you control the Primal Beast Enclave now?"
Anyway, Ethan quickly kept his thoughts aside and asked Shadow Bee an important question.
"Yes, Brother."
Shadow Bee brightly smiled as he explained, "After I broke through to the Golden Core Realm, I got some control over the Enclave. However, I need a couple of minutes to understand a few things."
After saying those words, Shadow Bee sat down and closed his eyes to connect with the Primal Beast Enclave.
'While he gets control over the Primal Beast Enclave, I will check out my newly upgraded Heavenly Talent.'
As for Ethan, without wasting any time, he quickly checked his new Heavenly Talent.
[Talent Name: Heavenly Beast Sovereign]
[Grade: Heavenly]
[Information: By nurturing the Spirit Beasts and Demonic Beasts, the user can receive Bestial Points depending on the grades of the nurtured beasts]
[Heavenly Effect 1: Beast Sovereign: For each major realm, the user can form a special contract with five beasts. With each special contract, the user can awaken a skill of the user's choice from the contracted beast]
[Heavenly Effect 2: Beast Evolution: Using the Bestial Points, the user can directly initiate evolutions for the beasts he formed a contract with]
[Heavenly Effect 3: Beast Nurturing: The user can choose to give up on Bestial Points in exchange for cultivation resources or techniques or skills, and much more whenever his Spirit Beasts and the Demonic Beasts break through in their cultivation]
[Heavenly Effect 4: Wild Aura: Wild beasts won't take the initiative to attack the user unless he angers them, and any beast that fights him will have its battle prowess suppressed by 25 percent]
'Holy…holy heavens….the effects of this Heavenly Talent….it is even as powerful as the Heavenly Mystic Harvesting.'
Looking at the effects of the Heavenly Beast Sovereign, Ethan rubbed his eyes to read again, and he was thoroughly shocked but excited.
It was in no way any less than his other Heavenly Talents.
'Previously, I could only form special contracts with two beasts per realm, but now, I can form five.'
The first Heavenly Effect was within Ethan's expectations. So, he was least surprised about it.
However, from the second effect onwards, he started receiving one shock after another.
Currently, with his cultivation, he could form special contracts with 15 beasts; however, so far, he had only formed special contracts with three beasts. They are: Atzarex, the First Blood Dragon, Pebble, the Mystic Soil Turtle, and Celea, the Celestial Spring Koi Fish.
With 12 more slots, Ethan decided to form contracts with all his existing Spirit Pets because he wanted them to become stronger with him.
'With the second effect, instead of Life Points, I will receive Bestial Points, which can be used to evolve my Contracted Spirit Beasts.'
'With the third effect, I can choose to give up on the Bestial Points in exchange for other cultivation resources…just like my Heavenly Mystic Harvesting.'
Even though Bestial Points are valuable, after experiencing the cultivation resources and knowledge he got from Mystic Harvesting by giving up on Life Points, Ethan decided to give it a try.
[The Heavenly Talent: Heavenly Beast Sovereign has been triggered by Shadow Bee's breakthrough]
[Do you want to receive Bestial Points or Cultivation Items as a reward?]
