The Master of Beasts

Chapter 808 260:

"Haha, a small tribe is just a small tribe!"

"Boom"

Fists and palms clashed, resulting in a giant wave of energy that lifted the dust off the ground.

Song Bei revealed a toothy grin, mocking, "Looks like your strength doesn't quite match your words!"

Sha Mu's face turned unsightly; he never expected someone from a small tribe to be able to engage him in a fight!

"Kid, don't get too cocky!"

"Stop, this is my Nine Dragon Tribe, not your own tribe. Do not cause trouble, or the Elders will be displeased!"

A warrior of the Nine Dragon Tribe, with a cultivation level of at most a Three Flowers Heavenly Immortal, shouted loudly.

"Hmph, in consideration of the Nine Dragon Tribe, I'll spare you this time. When the Eye of the Yellow Spring opens, you'll regret it!" Sha Mu threatened viciously.

Song Bei snorted disdainfully, "Trash!"

"You..."

"Sha Mu, stop. Don't bring trouble to the tribe because of your own actions!"

"Yes, Clan Leader!" Sha Mu stepped back, lowering his head.

"Akam Tribe, huh? I'll remember you!" The clan leader of the Seven Lights Tribe, Aurora, glanced indifferently at the banners of Song Bei and Chen Jiuge's group.

"Haha, truly arrogant, aren't they?" Jialouluo twisted his neck, producing a cracking sound.

"Don't mind them too much, they're just a bunch of natives. Once this world is fully developed, they will understand what kind of existence they underestimated!" Bai Li sneered.

"I don't want to wait for the future!" Jialouluo chuckled softly.

"Indeed, a group of lame natives. Once they understand the so-called Yellow Springs Eye, they'll realize what they're up against!" Meng Ze said lightly.

"Akam Tribe, is it? Wasn't this the tribe of that lucky fellow back then? What was his name? Aloki, right?"

"I am Akam. My father passed away a few years ago. May I know who you are?" Akam stepped forward with a friendly smile.

"I am Leon!"

"Akam, the descendant of Aloki. Truly a pity. If your father were still here, it would be a different matter. But now..."

"Leon, no more unnecessary talk. Hurry up and lead the way!" A warrior from the Nine Dragon Tribe shouted loudly from afar.

Leon nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, yes!"

Chen Jiuge, who was hiding in the back, noticed that the warrior who scolded Leon was wearing a beast skin garment embroidered with four simple dragon shapes, while Leon had only three draconic shapes.

"The captain has spoken, come with me!"

Under Leon's guidance, the group led by Chen Jiuge quickly crossed the vast drill grounds.

Behind the training grounds was a residential area on one side, while the other side had a deep passage.

"Stop looking and follow me!"

Leon called out and quickly walked into the passage.

"It seems that the larger the tribe, the more advanced the civilization. Perhaps the strongest tribe in the Heavenly Gift Realm isn't much less developed than some Little Immortal Cities in the True Realm!" Song Bei commented.

"That appears to be the case. The Nine Dragon Tribe is merely a medium-sized tribe. Just now, I noticed clothing and some traces of magic artifacts among them. While not as refined as our True Realm artifacts, the required skills might be even more complex!" Bai Li agreed.

"Senior elders, I think the technique needed for this passage is even higher!" Chen Jiuge said, pointing to the dim walls around them.

"Hmm?"

Song Bei moved closer and touched it. The pitch-black wall glowed faintly red for a moment, and the flash of energy forced Song Bei to retreat two steps.

"What a terrifying restriction!"

"Indeed terrifying. If fully activated, none of us could withstand it!" Feng Cang said solemnly.

No one doubted this conclusion, and even the proudest Jialouluo didn't refute it.

"Don't touch anything recklessly. The restriction here was personally set by a master above. If you trigger it carelessly, don't blame me for not warning you!" Leon stated proudly.

"A master from above?" Chen Jiuge stepped forward a few steps, holding two jars of Spiritual Wine.

The gleaming white jars immediately caught Leon's attention. Although the Nine Dragon Tribe had this craftsmanship, someone of Leon's lower status as a tribal warrior couldn't obtain it.

"What do you mean by this?" Though slightly displeased, Leon's eyes sparkled even in such a dim environment.

"Sir, I'm just curious about the master above. This is just a token of my goodwill!" Chen Jiuge smiled.

"This... um..."

Leon had never faced such a situation. These natives not only had muscular bodies but also minds mostly comprised of muscle. Under Chen Jiuge's hospitality, Leon reluctantly accepted.

"Ahem."

"I'll say it now, but once we're out of this passage, I won't admit to having said it, and I'll only say it once!"

"The master I mentioned came from beyond the Sunset Mountain Range!"

"Our Nine Dragon Tribe is the strongest tribe of the Sunset Mountain Range, but in the entire world, it's not considered much!"

"The master comes from an even stronger tribe, though I'm unsure of the exact name. My captain mentioned it briefly; it seems to be called the Ghost Fighting Tribe!"

"Ghost Fighting Tribe? That's an odd name!"

"Sir, do you know how the master who built this passage did it?" Chen Jiuge pressed further.

Leon shook his head and replied, "I'm not very sure, but it seemed like three masters came. They looked similar in attire to you, though their strength appeared vastly different!"

"Guess how long this passage took to build!"

"How long? It couldn't have just been a few days, right?" Chen Jiuge joked.

"No, no, no, not a few days. One day, to be precise, less than a day!" Leon's eyes showed a hint of amazement.

"Less than a day!" Chen Jiuge was startled. In the True Realm, it wouldn't be too extraordinary if Daluo level Array Masters and Artifact Refiners worked together, but this is the Heavenly Gift Realm!

The runes on this passage are visibly not from the True Realm, essentially ruling out the possibility of this master being from the True Realm.

"Thank you for enlightening us!"

Rejoining the group, a trace of worry flashed in Chen Jiuge's eyes.

After informing the others of the situation Leon disclosed, Song Bei said solemnly, "It seems that the passage might not only be connected to our Sunset Mountain Range area!"

"Then it's a massive problem. The passage is already completely out of control. Perhaps we weren't the only ones to come to this Heavenly Gift Realm; the natives may have also crossed into the True Realm!"

"No need to worry too much. Shuibing and the others are in Star Moon City, they'll be fine. In the True Realm, they can use Divine Skills. If these natives rely only on physical power, they can't stir much trouble!" Chen Jiuge reassured.

"That's true."

"Nevertheless, we should be cautious of this so-called Ghost Fighting Tribe. The development level of these large tribes and the number of strong individuals may far exceed our imagination!" Bai Li reminded.

"But I am quite tempted by the taste of these strongmen!" A trace of greed appeared in Meng Ze's eyes.

This is the nature of a Nightmare; with the Eye of the Yellow Spring so near, Meng Ze no longer suppressed his nature.

After a full hour, they finally reached the end of the passage.

"We've arrived!"

Massive trees stood on the ground like giants, their roars occasionally heard.

In the azure sky above, a colossal void loomed, from which yellow river water flowed continuously.

"Is this the Eye of the Yellow Spring?"

The sight left Chen Jiuge quite stunned.

"Alright, we're at the Eye of the Yellow Spring."

"From here on, you'll all remain here. You can choose to live anywhere in this forest as long as it's unclaimed."

After a moment's hesitation, Leon warned, "Judging from your previous clash with the Seven Lights Tribe, you don't seem too weak, but don't underestimate the Eye of the Yellow Spring!"

"Those monsters fell from the Eye of the Yellow Spring above!"

"Consider it for yourselves."

"Thanks for the warning!"

"Rumble"

As Leon returned to the passage, a pitch-black door closed it off.

Surveying the area, Chen Jiuge noticed restrictions set throughout the forest!

"Why does it feel like a prison?"

"Not just feel like it, it is one!"

A woman adorned in beast skin, with a three-leaf clover on her chest, emerged from the woods, followed by several burly guards.

"Di Chun from the Three Lives Tribe, I assume you're from the Akam Tribe!"

"Yes, unless you, little girl, intend to settle the score?" Jialouluo stepped forward, grinning maliciously.

"No, I'm here to propose a collaboration!"
