Beast Taming: My System is Bugged

Chapter 522 - 504: Demon Suppression Spell

"Mr. Tree has summoned the Ancient Divine Deer Ancestor. The power of Demon Fiends, like invisible tree seeds, has been quietly planted in the hearts of the onlookers. An unnatural restlessness is stirring within many bystanders, and faint signs of Demonization are appearing."

"But this time, the situation is different.

"Most of the human Beastmasters on site are also practitioners of the Brain Array. The moment the stirring signs of Demonization began to sprout, they were suppressed by the stable foundations of the Arrays within their bodies."

"Several Grand Beastmasters, led by Elder Huo, have simultaneously activated the pre-laid Four-direction Space Sealing Array. Dazzling Array Patterns are soaring into the sky from the four corners of the square, forming an invisible cage that firmly locks Mr. Tree and his summon in place."

"Beastmasters from all over the country are also appearing one after another at this moment.

"Their eyes are bloodshot, their chests surging with a hatred that has not cooled in thirty years, all to claim the blood debt for their fallen kin from this chief culprit of a past war."

Gu Ming quickly scanned the words, then looked around at his actual surroundings.

On the square, there were no pillars of light from Array Patterns soaring into the sky, nor any avengers suddenly appearing with eyes filled with bloody tears.

There was only the spectral form of the Ancient Divine Deer beside Mr. Tree, growing more solid and exuding a vast, ancient pressure, and the countless pairs of eyes below the stage—some expectant, some nervous, some lost.

’Perhaps, in the ’future’ timeline observed by the system, those so-called ’fighters’... are just referring to me, the one who is about to have a spiritual duel with Mr. Tree.’

At this thought, Gu Ming no longer hesitated and took a steady step forward.

At the same time, a thought flickered in his mind.

The pupils of Cyan Treasure, by his side, suddenly contracted, a sharp, emerald-green light bursting from the depths of its vertical slits.

Its seemingly casually coiled tail began to tap the ground at a frequency imperceptible to the naked eye.

A few ’Rootless Wood’ Grass Seeds, stored in its Dantian, had silently escaped into the void, like ambushers being laid in wait for the opportune moment.

The system’s text continued to appear:

"At this moment, the beacon of a new Demon War has been lit in this place.

"A brand-new evolutionary form of Demon Fiend, ’Rootless Wood’, is now quietly blossoming here at the hands of Cyan Treasure."

"The Ancient Divine Deer Ancestor, facing an attack from multiple fronts, is beginning to destabilize in form and spirit. Its connection to the real-world ritual is fluctuating violently."

"You hear someone among the attackers loudly chanting the ’Demon Suppression Spell’.

"This Spell is one of the decurse techniques developed over thirty years of painstaking research by the vengeful. It is specifically designed to sever this type of Demon Fiend’s Spiritual Domain invasion."

Gu Ming’s heart leaped.

He immediately focused his mind, rewinding to the memory of his confrontation and debate with Mr. Tree.

Sure enough, at the edge of that memory, there was an extremely faint chanting, almost like background white noise.

The sound was indistinct; without consciously focusing on it, the brain would instinctively filter it out.

But this was the combat Spell of the future Beastmasters!

Gu Ming made a snap decision to "borrow" it.

However, this ’Demon Suppression Spell’ was not something an ordinary Beastmaster could easily wield; the cost to learn it was immense.

It required a Pet Beast of the Light Element or Mysterious Element to act as the core, leading the chant to invoke the purifying power contained within.

There was no time to hesitate.

Gu Ming instantly transmitted his thoughts and the Spell’s information to Cyan Treasure through their contract, ordering it to fully activate its Light Spiritual Root and master this Decurse Technique in the shortest possible time via ’Light-speed Learning’.

"Gu Ming, do you have any last words?"

Ahead, Mr. Tree’s expression was cold and stern, his voice calm, yet he was secretly channeling his Divine Sense.

The vast aura of the Ancient Divine Deer Ancestral Spirit pressed forward with his words, like an invisible mountain, attempting to shake Gu Ming’s Spiritual Will.

Under such pressure, anyone with a weak will would surely feel their resolve crumble and be filled with thoughts of retreat.

However, Gu Ming’s reaction once again surprised him.

Not only did he not retreat, but he took another solid step forward.

This posture clearly indicated that verbal debate could no longer persuade the other party. They were about to enter the final stage: a pure clash of spirit and Dao Practice on the battlefield of the Dao debate domain.

This so-called Dao debate domain battlefield was a temporary spiritual space that dueling parties would project their Divine Senses into when neither could convince the other through reason.

There, the contest was no longer one of words, but of the depth of one’s ’Dao Practice’—the understanding of the ’Cyan Pine Unmoving Technique’ and one’s own path, as carried within their Spiritual Power.

It was a direct collision of their Great Dao Foundations, an exceptionally perilous affair.

If one’s own Dao Foundation had the slightest flaw or instability, their Dao marks could easily shatter in the clash. In a light case, their Divine Sense would be damaged; in a severe one, their entire path of cultivation would be severed.

Conversely, if one were to emerge victorious, their Dao Heart would become clearer and more solid. It would be as if they were stepping on the validation of their opponent’s defeat, raising their own Dao Practice to a new level.

Things having come to this, Mr. Tree showed no fear.

The Ancient Divine Deer Ancestral Spirit had already descended. With the blessing and protection of the ’divinity’ of such an ancient being, his Spiritual Domain was like an impenetrable, immortal fortress.

In contrast, Gu Ming was isolated and without aid. Unless he could also summon an ancient being of the same caliber to assist him, Mr. Tree held the absolute advantage in the Dao debate domain.

Gu Ming said nothing more, but slowly closed his eyes.

To onlookers, it seemed as if he was struggling to guard his mind under the terrifying pressure of the Ancient Divine Deer Ancestral Spirit.

In reality, his consciousness had instantly sunk into a Dream Space constructed with a single Achievement Point. Together with Cyan Treasure, he began to study the ’Demon Suppression Spell’ at a speed far exceeding that of the real world.

The flow of time in the dream was vastly different from reality.

By the time Gu Ming and Cyan Treasure had thoroughly grasped the essence of the Decurse Technique and he opened his eyes again, only two or three seconds had passed in the real world.

His gaze was clear and firm as he looked at Mr. Tree and said calmly:

"There’s no need for more talk. Let’s settle this in the Dao debate domain."

"Hmph!"

Mr. Tree’s brow lifted, and he wasted no more words.

A majestic Spiritual Power spread out like a tide, instantly contacting, merging with, and clashing against Gu Ming’s Divine Sense.

BZZZZ—

The minds of the two men, along with the Spiritual Power of their respective Pet Beasts, were pulled from reality and thrown into a profound spiritual world composed purely of thought.

This place was boundless, with only the most fundamental ’Dao’ and ’thought’ made manifest.

On Mr. Tree’s side, the spectral image of the Ancient Divine Deer appeared even more majestic and real here.

The totem patterns etched onto its antlers flowed and flickered like Stars, and behind it, the spectral form of the ancient ’Ancient Divine Deer Ancestor’ also emerged clearly, exuding a vast aura that transcended time.

On Gu Ming’s side, Cyan Treasure coiled in the spiritual void, its serpentine head raised, and began to chant an obscure yet solemn Spell in the tongue of snakes—the very same ’Demon Suppression Spell’.

Gu Ming used his own Divine Sense as kindling and his spirit as the flame, assisting Cyan Treasure with all his might to perform this massive decursing ritual.

Ah Kun and Ah Ji flanked him, one to the left and one to the right, their Spiritual Power forming a solid barrier to buy Gu Ming and Cyan Treasure the most crucial seconds.

"Demons and monsters, steeped in sin."

Gu Ming began the chant in the human tongue, his voice echoing through the spiritual world.

"My heart is my own, be ye undone!"

Cyan Treasure’s serpentine chant echoed his, the two languages and single rhythm creating a resonant symphony in this space of thought, stirring the power of the unseen laws of the universe.
