Chapter 564: Chapter 229: Withered Beast Source Fragment, the Wonders of the Ten Thousand Spirits Race (Part 3)
The Second Child thought it made sense and that it would take less than a minute more.
The two children immediately quickened their pace and arrived in a giant space.
"Squeak, squeak!"
They could randomly step on a Withered Beast Apostle with just a single step, causing the Apostles to squeak chaotically.
The Second Child and Fourth Child were quite displeased.
After the Second Child and Fourth Child entered the space, most of the Withered Beast Apostles began to rush out.
The Fourth Child saw a large group of Withered Beast Apostles surrounding the Withered Beast Source Fragment, and she spat out a column of fire.
"Squeak, squeak, ah..."
No matter how many of the Withered Beast Apostles there were, they were all reduced to ashes.
The Fourth Child excitedly ran to the Withered Beast Source Fragment and grabbed it.
When the Second Child and Fourth Child were ready to leave, they found the pathways they had come by filled with Withered Beast Apostles, densely packed and endless.
"Phew!"
The Fourth Child furiously spat fire again, trying to burn the blocking rats to ashes.
But it seemed like the more she burned, the more there were...
Accompanied by black smoke and the smell of roasted meat, it was nauseating, nearly causing the Second Child and Fourth Child to vomit up the beef stew they had just eaten.
"Why aren’t they out yet?"
Yi Tian watched as countless rats emerged from various small caves, but there was no sign of the Second Child and Fourth Child, making him a bit anxious.
"Could it be that there are too many rats, blocking the passage?" Yi Tian speculated about this possibility.
If not for Big Bear, Second Bear, and the Howling Moon Silver Wolf being unable to enter, Yi Tian would have crawled in to join up with the Second Child and Fourth Child.
"Huff huff!"
Big Bear patted Yi Tian on the shoulder, informing him that the enemy had arrived.
"Detection indicates this space is confined by a No-fly Talisman, unable to use the Mist Scroll. If the Lord uses the Mist Scroll, please leave this area!"
Prompted by the Celestial Dao Stone.
Yi Tian realized the enemy had come prepared, specifically targeting him.
"Haha... Demon Lord, where are you fleeing..."
Before seeing anyone, a mad laugh was heard first.
On a distant mountain peak, a person with a Half-Dao Body appeared.
He had a horn on his head, no, more precisely, a spike.
Both ears were sharp and long, just like an elf’s ears.
They had only one eye, which was vertical, unlike normal living creatures.
They appeared on a mountain peak 1800 meters away, not approaching Yi Tian immediately, showing caution in their hearts.
The reputation of the Demon Lord was not unfounded.
Many strong people had fallen at the hands of the Demon Lord.
"Spiritual Life, Clan Leader of the Ten Thousand Spirits Race, strength 1956, constitution 1956, agility 1856, Spiritual Power 6096. Skills: SS-level Martial Skill Flying Phoenix Spirit Fist Perfected, SS Defense Martial Skill Level True Spirit Shield Great Success, SS-level Swift Spirit Body Technique Great Success, SS-level Ten Thousand Spirits Sword Great Success... Mysteries of Spirit Level 8. Swordsmanship Mastery Level 9."
The clan leader Spiritual Life of the Ten Thousand Spirits Race was followed by five elders of the Ten Thousand Spirits Race who looked similar. There were also ten stronger individuals from the race.
Spiritual Life was currently infected with the Withered Beast Plague, but only once. Upon contact with Yi Tian, he would be infected a second time. After releasing the No-fly Talisman, Spiritual Life had already consumed Heavenly and Earthly Treasures.
"Ling Fei, Great Priest of the Ten Thousand Spirits Race, strength 893, constitution 869, agility 845, Spiritual Power 5420, Spiritual Strength 5037. SS-level Spirit Attack Skill Great Success... Mysteries of Spirit Level 7."
From Ling Fei, the Great Priest, Yi Tian couldn’t see much useful information, as Spiritual Attacks couldn’t be detected by the Celestial Dao Stone.
The Spirit Attack Skill was a magic combining Spiritual Power and Spiritual Strength.
Compared to the Clan Leader, Ling Fei’s ability as a Spirit Cultivator made Yi Tian cautious and gave him resolve.
Ling Fei’s Spiritual Strength far exceeded Yi Tian’s, meaning Yi Tian’s Seven-Aperture Exquisite couldn’t fully immunize him, only half the Spiritual Attack could be resisted.
In addition to the Clan Leader and Great Priest.
Goodness!
Grand Elder, Second Elder, Third Elder, Fourth Elder.
Ten S-level Qi Refiners of the Ten Thousand Spirits Race.
Judging from the titles, the high echelon of the Ten Thousand Spirits Race came out in full force.
The four elders had Spiritual Power ranging from 4000 to 4500.
But they weren’t truly splendid young talents, their Mysteries of Spirit levels were only five or six, the most outstanding Grand Elder, Mysteries of Spirit level seven.
Such Mysteries relied on understanding, not just age and time accumulation.
The ten S-level figures had Spiritual Power between 3200 and 3800.
It was evident that the Ten Thousand Spirits Race was indeed a rare Qi Refining Tribe in the Dagu Realm.
These enemies made Yi Tian’s thoughts churn, nodding in secret.
There was a good chance of taking them down!
"Just right, with the Earth Bear here, our race shall rise!" The Clan Leader Spiritual Life was sure they would crush Yi Tian.
The Indigenous People knew Yi Tian had a Quasi-Divine-level Spiritual Treasure, but they truly didn’t know its function.
Thorn King revealed this information to the Dagu Realm, planning to kill with borrowed knives. The name Quasi-Divine-level Spiritual Treasure was enough!
But they came just in time; Yi Tian couldn’t leave before the Second Child and Fourth Child came out.
"Clan leader, this Silver Wolf’s blood and Essence, Qi, and Spirit are as potent as the Earth Bear’s. It might also be an SSS-level potential beast. Also, that black and white cat of the Demon Lord, although left behind, may also be an SSS-level Spirit Beast. Best to capture the Demon Lord alive, don’t let his Mist shatter immediately, so our Ten Thousand Spirits Race can take over his territory. The future belongs to our Ten Thousand Spirits Race, with the Abyss and Bright Island becoming vassals, the Ten Kingdoms are history."
The Great Priest Ling Fei said, crazed, while shaking his staff.
At night, this voice traveled far, clearly audible to Yi Tian.
"Everything will belong to our Ten Thousand Spirits Race!"
The clan leader Spiritual Life fervently gazed at the Earth Bears, making them feel a bit unsettled.
"How did you know I was here?"
Yi Tian was very curious about this question. These two guys seemed quite arrogant, but they were cautious even in approaching him.
Yi Tian was always ready to make a move!
"Let me enlighten you before you die!"
With a cold smile, Ling Fei shouted, "Control!"
He waved his staff, sending out a light that hit a group of plague apostles.
Once the Withered Beast Apostles were enveloped in the white light, they stood up. Their small eyes darted around, soon turning gray.
Then this group of Withered Beast Apostles bowed to Ling Fei.
"Kill the Lord for me."
Upon hearing Ling Fei’s command, the Withered Beast Apostles immediately charged at Yi Tian.
With a wave of his hand, Yi Tian disposed of the Withered Beast Apostles.
Then, Yi Tian vaguely saw many small flying insects above Ling Fei’s head, and suddenly understood.
This old man could control rats and insects.
Around his territory, many insects were controlled, and within the 66-region range, many insects were controlled by the old man too.
Once outside the territory, he couldn’t escape the Ten Thousand Spirits Race’s surveillance.
The Second Child, being naive, wouldn’t care about a group of small insects at all.
"Impressive, Spiritual Skill is indeed amazing."
Yi Tian praised but then quickly shifted: "My territory is home to numerous SSS-level potential Spirit Beasts. You shouldn’t hog it all! Do you think you can take me down?"
