The Master of Beasts

Chapter 818 265_2

"If those nine people are indeed the hosts of the Nine Great Treasures, then this so-called Eye of the Yellow Spring must have emerged to resist them!"

"The owner of this seal was the Child of Destiny of that era, but this Child of Destiny failed, and then used some unknown means to sacrifice themselves, reopening the Eye of the Yellow Spring, and it's even more powerful this time!"

"The giant hand that appeared in the end should be the great terror mentioned earlier. However, based on the mural content, this great terror is likely a creature, and it might very well come from the Yellow Springs!"

"So what exactly happened back then? And why were the nine hosts annihilated by that giant hand?"

"If the owner of the giant hand wasn't a creature from the Heavenly Gift Realm, what right did the seal's owner have to sacrifice themselves to summon it, and yet that hand did nothing to the Heavenly Gift Realm after eliminating the nine hosts?"

"Could a being that has cultivated to such a terrifying degree still have a so-called heart of mercy?"

"City Lord, stop daydreaming, it's time for us to leave!" Bai Li patted Chen Jiuge on the shoulder.

"Oh, have we packed everything?" Chen Jiuge snapped out of it.

"Of course, it's just a stone chamber, what could we have missed?"

"Then let's go, but this time, we should share some of our spoils with Feng Cang and Song Bei!" Chen Jiuge reminded.

"Ah, that's a given!"

"Then let's move out!"

The twelve sculptures cannot be taken out of this Yellow Springs Tomb, which Chen Jiuge found regrettable. With the help of the twelve sculptures, the crisis in the Yellow Springs Tomb would have been handled with more confidence.

Rubbing the seal, Chen Jiuge decided not to take it out.

Because the seal had lost all its mystical powers, it was now just an ordinary seal, easily destroyed, better to leave it here. The next time he comes, he could still use it.

"Finally, it's over!"

As the Stone Gate reopened, Chen Jiuge did not see Song Bei but rather a Fierce Beast with an ugly face!

"Ha" "Bang"

Bai Li, who killed the Fierce Beast with a single blow, shook his hand in disgust and said, "What an odd little creature, it gave me a fright!"

"Why didn't you guys say......"

Bai Li followed their gaze, only to see that the Eye of the Yellow Spring in the sky had fully opened, with countless monsters falling onto the earth along with descending Yellow Spring Water.

The distance was filled with the silhouettes of Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts, and from afar, there were occasional roars.

"Did the Eye of the Yellow Spring erupt?"

"How is it so fast? Wasn't it supposed to take at least a month?"

"I don't know, but something unexpected must have happened. Song Bei is not here, it seems our camp has also been attacked and possibly under key attention!" Chen Jiuge speculated.

"Then let's go back and take a look!"

Having been surrounded by sculptures for so long, Jialouluo was already filled with anger and immediately transformed into a cannonball, heading toward the camp.

The trees ahead, along with the Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts, were smashed to pieces by Jialouluo.

"What a violent guy!" Bai Li looked at the sticky ground with some disdain.

Meng Ze, who had been staring at the Eye of the Yellow Spring in mid-air, said indifferently, "I sense something is wrong. There are a lot of monsters, but it feels like there's nothing particularly powerful, which is very strange!"

"What's strange about it?"

"In such a large group, there must be an extremely strong entity; this is a theorem!"

"Not necessarily." Chen Jiuge frowned.

"It is certain. Even my Nightmare Clan, so weak within the Chaos, had beings of great power."

"I say, why don't we go check on the camp first?" Bai Li interrupted.

The White Tiger excels at killing, so when it comes to fighting, I'm good, but reasoning, not so much.

At the camp

Feng Cang and Song Bei each supported a direction of defense, but there were too many Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts, and these beasts seemed to have no fear of death or even a sense of pain.

"Truly a bunch of monsters!"

Feng Cang watched a beast that had lost all its limbs crawling on the ground with its fangs, a trace of fear inadvertently appearing in his eyes.

This fear was unrelated to cultivation or anything else; it was a clash of wills.

He stomped on the monster's head, making it explode, and couldn't help but sigh, "If these Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts had intelligence along with such determination, surely......."

Feng Cang didn't continue because the outcome was obvious: he and Song Bei were only able to barely protect one direction, while the battle in other directions was extremely fierce.

"Ahhh"

Akam looked at the constantly howling Loose Cultivator area with a hint of disdain on his face, "Truly a bunch of useless people!"

Although the Loose Cultivators' cultivation level was slightly lower compared to the thousand Tribal Warriors, it didn't mean there were no strong ones among them, not to mention they outnumbered the Tribal Warriors by several times!

However, from earlier to now, these Loose Cultivators have occasionally had their lines broken by these monsters, causing many Tribal Warriors to be injured and forcing Akam to personally oversee the rear.

"I don't know why the lord keeps them; it would be better to send more Tribal Warriors instead!"

Akam crushed two approaching monsters with a powerful punch.

"Boom"

A figure charged through from behind the monsters, forcefully arriving in front of the Loose Cultivators.

The high-speed movement caused white steam to continuously rise from Jialouluo's body, and the gray coat had been thoroughly dyed red, with beast relics hanging from his arms and thighs, slowly sliding off as Jialouluo stood still.

With a commanding gaze sweeping around, Jialouluo snorted coldly, "A bunch of useless people, if you're of no use, I'll clean you up myself to save effort!"

"Sir, I..."

"Boom"

A gesture flung a bold Loose Cultivator straight into the beast horde: "Hiding your strength, what, do you expect me to lead the charge for you?"

The previously timid Loose Cultivators, who dared not strike, displayed remarkable bravery in the face of real danger, temporarily preventing the beasts from approaching him.

"Bring out your hidden weapons, let even one monster slip past, and you'll die!"

Jialouluo casually smashed a scheming Loose Cultivator, using a kill as a warning to the rest.

"Yes, sir!"

"How's the situation?"

After dealing with these cunning Loose Cultivators, Jialouluo went over to Song Bei and asked.

"You're back? The situation is not good. The monsters that have appeared so far are quite powerful, but not exceedingly so. However, I'm worried that with so many Fierce Beasts, it's impossible not to have one with power reaching the Daluo level!" Song Bei said with concern.

"This is indeed an issue!"

Jialouluo frowned; if it were just him, he would surely dive in for a search, but it's not feasible now!

The Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts don't feel pain or fear death, but our people are different; they can get hurt, feel fatigue, and need time to recover Qi-Blood!

"Well, let's hold the line for now. Bai Li and the others are also returning, and then we'll have the freedom to investigate further!"

On the other side, as they advanced towards the camp, Chen Jiuge and the group cleared the Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts on their path.

"I finally understand why so few tribesmen survive after being recruited; with these numbers, surviving is truly difficult!" Chen Jiuge said with a bitter smile.

These beasts' strength is relatively consistent, roughly at the Heavenly Immortal Realm, and lacking fighting skills, relying solely on physical strength and a disregard for death to overwhelm and crush enemies.

"I'll go on ahead; if the camp is also surrounded by this many monsters, the situation could be dire!" Bai Li said with a frown.

"Go ahead, leave it to me!" Meng Ze nodded slightly.

"Alright, I leave it to you!"

After Bai Li departed, Meng Ze silently led the way but suddenly stopped shortly afterward.

"Boom"

Masses of black mist emanated from Meng Ze's body. Seeing the mist completely obscuring others, Chen Jiuge felt puzzled, "Senior Meng Ze, what does this mean?"

Meng Ze took a deep breath and said, "The nine people in the murals are the hosts of the Nine Great Treasures, aren't they?"

"City Lord, you are also one of the Supreme Treasure hosts."

Chen Jiuge's body tensed, "So what?"

"Huff"

Meng Ze spoke heavily, "Rest assured, I harbor no ill intentions towards you. I just want to say that the presence of the Nine Great Treasures hosts here isn't a coincidence; there is a secret to breaking through hidden here!"

"City Lord, if there's an opportunity, I hope you won't forget about me!"

"Further advancement?"

"But Senior Meng Ze, you've got the wrong person; I'm just at the Golden Immortal Cultivation!"

Meng Ze didn't reply, merely shook his head slightly.

The mist dissipated, and Meng Ze resumed leading the way, with Ku Tou and the others seemingly unaware that anything was amiss earlier.
