Gary Smith arrived in a peculiar world of beastmasters, where an ancient taboo was reborn from the depth of time, and an evil god was lurking. In this world, birds and beasts, rivers and mountains, even elements could spawn spiritual power and turn into pet beasts. Among them, the powerful ones became ecological niches by themselves, radiating secret realm ecosystems such as the Yellow Spring, Skeleton Kingdom, Succubus Nest, and Kingdom of the Sky Tree, nurturing countless followers. The beastmasters make contracts with the pet beasts, nurture them, and control the spiritual power. After witnessing the "Taboo Sun" event, Gary Smith obtained the ability to extract materials from everything in the world and compile "Secret Food". Through the Evolutionary Secret Food, the combination of "The Shattered Dusk World" + "Ancient Dragon’s Dead Egg" results in the Feast of the End. When the pet beast consumes it, it evolves into the Dusk Dragon God. The Dusk Domain erodes the world, turning into the God at the end of time. The Skill Secret Food allows the pet beasts to plunder skills from everything, becoming omniscient and omnipotent. The Sacrificial Secret Food snatches the taboo time, sacrifices the ancient beings, and blasphemes against the gods. His style of beast control also started to become peculiar. There is the Spider Shadow that devours ancient dragons and weaves dreams of all lives with its threads, the Red Master that pollutes the multiverse, and the Devourer of the Realms, who consumes worlds... In response to this, he explained, "My pet beasts are just a bit peculiar. They really are not evil gods!"

"I am Yang Jian. By the time you read this, I've already been dead..." A strange parchment, an eye that peeks into the darkness. This is the memoir of a person who survived.

This was a world where everything, including mountains, rivers, plants, animals, machines, death spirits, and elements, could turn into war beasts. This was a world dominated by beast tamers. One by one, these legendary beasts were brought to life in this vast beast-taming world as Fang Mu flipped through the Book of Starry Space in his hands. As such, Fang Mu embarked on his unique journey of becoming a beast creator.

With his engagement at hand, the most terrifying and legendary person of the legal world, Fu Huai'an, returns with a son. Before the engagement… He asks, "Since you love Wen Moshen, why are you in my bed?" She says, "Because I cannot watch idly as Wen Moshen's woman enters an engagement with you." With a cigarette in Fu Huai'an's mouth, he crosses his legs. Across the light cloud of smoke, he squints his eyes—watching as Lin Nuan's slim arms wrap around his neck; he feels stirred. So a person can love another so passionately. "You call what you did a kiss?" "…" "What a pure lady!" Fu Huai'an spews out a cloud of smoke and snuffs out the cigarette. With a mellow voice, he says, "Let me teach you what kissing is!" But, what he teaches Lin Nuan doesn't seem to be only a kiss…

"Roger, the Lord’s Mansion is offering a reward for the corpse demon, do you want to pick it up together?" "No, I'm not very strong, so I won't take risks." "Roger, we still have one spot for the southern mine, would you like to come?" "Maybe next time..." "Roger, Roger... Nevermind, forget that I’ve asked." Ten years later. [You killed 1 Explosive Magic Frog, killing 164250 Explosive Magic Frogs in total] [Your magic resistance is increased to 100%] Roger, who was at the pool, rubbed his sore waist and said to himself, "Finally... I seem to have become a little stronger." ... This was a fantasy wasteland world that had been radiated by nineteenth circle spells. Roger had been teleported with the profession model of "Hermit Ranger". He had only one wish: Before the real catastrophe broke out, he aimed to become a stronger every single day.

When they first met, Tang Wan sighed, “The fifth young master of the Jiang family is just as the rumors said. He’s celibate, aloof, prideful, and is a man to be revered. Unfortunately, he’s so smart that he no longer has any will to live, which made him sickly, and he’s going to die soon… Later on, the fifth young master brought her into his room. When she came out, everyone stared at her in shock. Why was she crying? …… Later on, it was said that the fifth young master returned after he recovered from his illness, and he brought a girl back. She appeared pure and harmless, but underneath that harmless appearance, she was actually a spitfire that offended quite a number of people. But the fifth young master just said, “I brought her back, so I’ll let her do whatever she wants. If… anything happens, I’ll take responsibility.” His best friend gave him a reminder. “You’re going to be responsible for someone from the Tang family?” “Since she came back with me, she’s mine. She’s just a young girl and is spoilt. I have to take responsibility.” After Tang Wan married into the Jiang family, she only had one mission. She must give birth to his children before he died! Meanwhile, the fifth young master was puzzled. “You’re a gentle and shy girl during the day, so why are you so different during the night?” Tang Wan thought. ‘I have to make every second count. He won’t be able to live long.’ After she gave birth to his son and he became one year old, Tang Wan was prepared to become a widow. However… ‘Why isn’t he dead yet?’ Much later, the fifth master of the Jiang family asked her, “I heard that you’ve been looking for my death every day. Do you want to kill me by sucking me dry?”

As soon as he opened his eyes, Li Ming was plunged into these tumultuous interstellar spaces, where countless civilizations held their shotguns at the ready, eyeing everything in the universe with covetous intent.
