Transformation
Inside Gu Tian's laboratory, the explosions of energy from the beast evolutions reverberated throughout the chamber. Waves of heat, frost, lightning, and various other elemental forces surged simultaneously, shaking the entire area. The room was illuminated by a kaleidoscope of colors, radiating from the sheer intensity of the beasts' transformations, creating a breathtakingly surreal atmosphere.
A booming laughter echoed amidst the swirling storm of energy.
"Hahaha! This is getting more unbelievable by the day!" Gu Long exclaimed, his voice brimming with excitement.
Boom!
A shockwave of light rippled outward before Guang Yue's voice rang out.
"Over the past few months, our strength has skyrocketed beyond normal comprehension! And it's all thanks to my troublesome son!"
Gu Mo glanced at the two of them before turning his gaze to his grandson, who remained calmly recording data without saying a word.
He had long known that Gu Tian was extraordinary, far beyond what common logic could explain. But as his grandfather, he had always refrained from praising him too much, fearing it might make the boy arrogant.
However, deep down, Gu Mo knew the truth, his grandson was a genius that no one could ever hope to rival.
"Sigh…" Gu Mo exhaled softly before allowing himself a small smile.
Even if he didn't say it aloud, he had to admit, his grandson was truly unmatched.
At that moment, Gu Tian smirked slightly, his gaze shifting toward the three of them.

Inside Gu Tian's laboratory, he pondered for a moment before speaking in a serious tone, "Some of our beasts have reached the final stage of their evolutionary path, and I have already created spiritual realms for everyone. What I am about to share must remain an absolute secret."
The three who had been laughing and smiling moments ago immediately turned serious. Gu Tian looked at them intently before pulling out a set of documents and handing them over. The three took the documents without a word. As they flipped through the pages, their expressions gradually changed.
The document detailed the number of individuals possessing S, SS, and SSS-tier talents, which had now reached nearly five hundred—ten times more than the previous year. More importantly, this was just the data that was visible on the surface. It did not include underground factions, secret government divisions, the ten great noble families, or hidden organizations lurking in the shadows.
Gu Tian had some spies embedded in those organizations, but their ranks were not high enough to access classified information. However, the data he had gathered was enough to indicate a major upheaval occurring in the world.
The document also mentioned the rapid and significant rise in spiritual energy levels—not just a slight increase, but a massive shift that was affecting all life forms on the planet.
Additionally, there were reports of sea beasts experiencing sudden surges in power, with some reaching terrifying new heights. Worst of all was the news of a Level 4 city near the ocean that had fallen after being attacked by dozens of epic-tier sea dragons.
The world consisted of seven major continents. Beyond the vast, uncontrollable oceans, humanity only occupied three of them. The remaining four were under the rule of immensely powerful emperor-tier beasts.
The three continents under human control were governed and administered by the Central Government and the Ten Sacred Families, which included the Dark Cloud Continent, where Rain City was located, the Thunder Continent, and the Dawn Continent.
The four continents ruled by beasts included the Rainbow Continent, the Continent of Death, the Forest Continent, and the Lunar Continent. Each of these continents was dominated by multiple emperor-tier beasts.
The classification of cities in this world was divided into six levels.
Level 1 cities were guarded by platinum-tier beast tamers and had a population ranging from one hundred thousand to five hundred thousand people.
Level 2 cities were protected by emerald-tier beast tamers, with populations reaching two million.
Level 3 cities had diamond-tier beast tamers and housed around ten million inhabitants.
Level 4 cities were overseen by king-tier beast tamers, with approximately forty million residents.
Level 5 cities, guarded by epic-tier beast tamers, had populations reaching one hundred million.
The highest level, Level 6 cities, were the central hubs of humanity, safeguarded by emperor-tier beast tamers, each hosting over three hundred million people. There were only five such cities in the three continents controlled by humans—two in Dark Cloud Continent, two in Dawn Continent, and one in Thunder Continent.
After finishing the document, Guang Yue spoke with a grave tone, "Based on this information, this is a warning before an impending catastrophe."
Silence fell over the room. Everyone present knew that the recent phenomena over the past month were highly unusual. The abrupt increase in spiritual energy was accelerating beast evolution at an alarming rate, making them stronger and harder to control. Their power levels were rising beyond human reach.and this was likely just the beginning.
