The Myriad Beast Ladder

Jiang Chen, a youth with a crippled spiritual root, is deemed by his family as a useless good-for-nothing who cannot tame beasts. However, beneath an abandoned beast shrine on the outskirts of the city, he stumbles into the ruins of an ancient beast-taming sect and activates the Myriad Beast Ladder, which had been extinct for ten thousand years. The ladder does not recognize spiritual roots, only resonance—he possesses the hidden ability to "understand the emotions of beasts" and, with the power of beast soul possession, climbs the ladder step by step. He takes in a gray-furred wolf cub, tames a thunder eagle, forms a pact with a taotie, and unlocks the Iron-Armored Rhino Soul, Gale Wolf Soul, Crimson Flame Tiger Soul... Each level of the ladder is the soul of a sealed resonance-faction beast tamer, and each stone step buries fragments of a ten-thousand-year-old truth. As the shadow of the Forbidden Beast Alliance approaches and the mystery of his father's disappearance points to the sixtieth level of the ladder, Jiang Chen discovers: the loss of beast-taming methods was no natural disaster, but a meticulously planned purge spanning ten thousand years. Using resonance to fight enslavement and the souls of myriad beasts to shake the old order, he must make the choice at the top of the ladder that will determine the fate of the Spirit Beast Continent—conquest or symbiosis? — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: The Myriad Beast Ladder — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
