Whoosh...
Chen Yu and Zhu Lingyu followed two enemies to the core ancestral land of the Heavenly Spirit Crane Clan.
Chen Yu suspected the conflict between the Heavenly Spirit Crane Clan and the Phoenix-headed Parrot Clan was incited by the force the black-clothed man belonged to.
"These two definitely don’t belong to the Demon Race."
Zhu Lingyu observed the black-clothed man and the burly man ahead.
"Who dares trespass in the ancestral land of the Heavenly Spirit Crane Clan?"
An angry shout echoed, and a king at the late stage of Star Condensation led two kings of the same stage to attack.
"You think not fleeing after not being killed makes you brave, delivering yourself to us, clueless fools."
The black-clothed man wore a cold expression, his black scythe emanating terrifying demonic power, plunging the world into blackness, the oppressive chaotic aura overwhelming the scene.
Slash!He drew a frantic black light, aiming to kill the late stage Star Condensation elder.
The elder of the Heavenly Spirit Crane Clan felt unprecedented pressure, transforming into his crane form, surrounded by three swords, stirring white sword waves, rushing forward.
Boom!
The clash broke the endless white sword waves to pieces.
The black-clothed man attacked again, wounding and forcing the elder of the Heavenly Spirit Crane Clan to retreat.
"Die!"
The black-clothed man’s eyes turned black, peculiar pupils bursting with fearsome demonic light.
Slash!
Suddenly, his strength surged, his black scythe’s attack became overwhelmingly destructive.
"No..."
The elder’s face showed terror as he retreated, but it was too late.
Slash! Poof!
The black demon scythe cleaved him in two, blood sprayed out, his body parts fell.
This scene shocked everyone present.
Meanwhile, the burly companion crushed the other two elders into flesh paste with his giant hammer.
"I know their race."
Seeing this, Zhu Lingyu’s eyes widened, her expression turned grave.
Bang!
Another explosion came from the ancestral land, volcanic blood light erupted, dyeing the sky.
Chen Yu and Zhu Lingyu quickly arrived at the ancestral land following the two foreigners.
A place once heavily guarded now turned to bones, and the ancestral land’s barrier was broken.
"The Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Spirit Crane Clan is dead too."
Zhu Lingyu sighed.
Chen Yu also noticed the elder’s corpse.
From hearing the sound to arriving here, less than ten breaths had passed.
Yet the Supreme Elder, a four-star king, had met a tragic end here in such a short time!
"Must be the Blood Race’s doing..."
Blood Race experts excel at disguising, able to approach the Supreme Elder and then launch an attack.
The quickness at which they killed a four-star king proves their exceptional strength, not to be underestimated!
Whoosh, whoosh...
Everyone charged into the ancestral land.
"Such dense Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi."
Chen Yu was greatly surprised.
The Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi within the ancestral land was unusually dense, comparable to a powerful four-star force.
In a cave, they found two members of the Blood Race, a white-haired elder and a youthful boy.
"Such audacity, trying to snatch the prey from our mouths."
The black-clothed man saw the two from the Blood Race, directly rebuking them.
The burly man beside him said nothing, emitting a dreadful oppressive aura, fully prepared.
"The capable seize it."
The young boy, the "Holy Blood King," smiled evilly.
Bang!
The Holy Blood King slapped a tombstone before him, turning it to ashes.
Boom!
This unknown tombstone shattered, resonating throughout the ancestral land.
Chen Yu sensed an array power dissipating; simultaneously, an ominous feeling seeped from the earth, chilling one’s flesh.
"Oh? Not enough to open the hidden world here?"
The Holy Blood King frowned.
His spiritual sense permeated the ground, sensing spatial fluctuations, but seemed to lack a "key" to open the hidden world within the ancestral land.
"Hahaha, the treasures here are beyond your reach, I suggest you leave quickly."
The black-clothed man laughed aloud.
Chen Yu secretly deployed spatial profound meaning, sensing beneath the ancestral land.
"Seems you know how to unlock the treasure."
The Holy Blood King’s eyes fixed on the black-clothed man.
He’d long found the man annoying, repeatedly shouting recklessly in his presence.
Whoosh!
The Holy Blood King darted out like a blood arrow toward the black-clothed man, the void surrounding them flooding with blood light, forming a giant blood hand reaching for the black-clothed man.
"Such a powerful strike."
Zhu Lingyu instinctively moved closer to Chen Yu.
The young boy’s displayed strength made her feel oppressed and in danger!
Clang! Bang!
The black-clothed man swung his black scythe, forming a circle of sharp black light waves, colliding with the giant blood hand.
The black light waves cut into the giant blood hand, but couldn’t penetrate further due to immense resistance.
"Not good!"
The black-clothed man sensed trouble, preparing to break through.
Bang! Boom!
Explosions erupted around him, the black light waves crushed by the giant blood hand, another loud noise reverberated, shaking the heavens.
"You are... a five-star king!"
The black-clothed man stumbled backward, looking somewhat embarrassed.
"Your realization comes too late."
The Holy Blood King grinned cruelly.
The commotion was too great here; he needed to seize the black-clothed man quickly, to interrogate the method for opening the hidden world.
Bang!
A heavenly shock, the black-clothed man was blasted a thousand feet away by a strike from the Holy Blood King, his blood spilling everywhere.
"Five-star King!"
Chen Yu felt some pressure.
He had fought with the man in black robes before, whose prowess was even stronger than Zhu Cangyan.
Yet facing the Five-star King Holy Blood King of the Blood Race, he was beaten without a chance to retaliate.
Although the Blood Race’s current target was the treasure here, once they obtained it, they would certainly act against him.
"He’s revealing his true form!"
Zhu Lingyu suddenly murmured.
Chen Yu couldn’t help but look into the distance, and his expression changed instantly. .
Only to see the man in black robes being beaten pitifully, his skin turning from white to black, with a single horn on his head, black wings sprouting behind him, and an evil and ferocious demonic aura emanating from his entire body.
"This isn’t the Demon Race; what race is this?"
Chen Yu was inwardly shocked.
"God Demon Descendants!"
Zhu Lingyu answered gravely.
God Demon Descendants!
It’s said that the Ancient Times was the God and Demon Era, with many ancient powerful races dominating the entire main world.
The glory of that time is too distant and hard to trace back, people can only glean from some ancient texts the prosperity of that era.
It is rumored that some powerful God Demon races, upon birth, already possess Guiyuan Realm cultivation, without need for training, and by adulthood, they can reach Condensed Star King status, standing thousands of feet tall, grasping stars, with divine skills that shake the heavens.
These ancient myths are hard to substantiate, but even if false, they wouldn’t be far off.
Perhaps due to the overwhelming strength of the God Demon races, a great war affecting the entire main world dealt them a crushing blow, allowing many races to subsequently rise, bringing an end to the God and Demon Era.
Yet the might of the God Demon races has never been doubted.
To this day, the main world still contains descendants of those God Demon races, inheriting one percent or one-thousandth of their bloodline divine skills, representing a strong major force in the main world.
"God Demon Descendant race."
The Holy Blood King’s arrogant demeanor also changed.
Although this man in black robes was not as strong as himself, the racial force he belonged to made the Holy Blood King somewhat apprehensive.
"Hurry up and get lost, what’s here doesn’t belong to you."
The black-robed man’s dark eyes stared at the Holy Blood King, coldly shouting.
Facing a Five-star King, having been beaten away, he nonetheless remained so arrogant, full of confidence.
Meanwhile, the wounds on his body were wriggling and healing quickly.
Bear in mind, these were injuries inflicted by a Five-star King!
"Get lost; this belongs to my race!"
Another burly man came beside the black-robed man, also emanating a powerful aura.
"So what if they are God Demon Descendants, just a race with a strong innate advantage; despite the cultivation disparity, this king can still kill you."
The Holy Blood King was not someone to easily give in, and he detested others flaunting power before him, especially those whose cultivation was lower than his.
Chen Yu and Zhu Lingyu stood afar, doing nothing, feigning non-existence, watching the tiger fight from a mountain.
"Tsk, tsk, what kind of race is this, so overbearing."
Zhu Lingyu and Chen Yu communicated through sound transmissions.
"Blood Race."
"You finally answered my question."
Zhu Lingyu laughed.
All along Chen Yu had been coldly dismissive, ignoring her. His response this time made Zhu Lingyu feel it was quite precious.
"You should leave first; it’s dangerous here."
Chen Yu transmitted.
"We two aren’t weak either; we still preserve our full strength. We might be able to get a share."
Zhu Lingyu boldly replied.
Chen Yu did not respond. What if the God Demon Descendants and Blood Race abandoned fighting and conspired together? Then the two of them would be in danger.
He had a life-preserving trump card; if he needed to escape, even a Five-star King would find it difficult to stop him.
"Did you figure anything out yet?"
Zhu Lingyu asked again.
Since just now, she perceived that Chen Yu was using the profound meaning of space, seemingly exploring the small world below.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Two Blood Race members and God Demon Descendants engaged in fierce combat, the Holy Blood King leveraging his cultivation advantage, holding a significant edge.
Yet, being of God Demon Descendants, even if belonging to a weaker category, the black-robed man and the burly man were tough to deal with, struggling under the joint assault of the Blood Race.
"They seem to be waiting... for reinforcements!"
Chen Yu suddenly sensed something amiss.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Heaven and Earth’s winds stirred, all beings of the Heavenly Spirit Crane Clan instinctively trembling in fear upon the ground.
"Who dares to seize the Young Master’s things?"
A cold voice infused with dominion and confidence sounded.
Amidst the vast black demonic cloud, two figures rapidly approached.
One was a green-haired man arriving slowly with hands behind his back, his features chiselled, his cold eyes looking downward, exuding strong pressure akin to a king’s presence.
"Young Master!"
The black-robed man and the burly man, upon seeing this individual, became immensely excited.
The Young Master arrived, everything is already settled!
The Holy Blood King raised his head to gaze at this ’Young Master’, feeling a trace of pressure.
Though also a God Demon Descendant, unlike the black-robed man and others, merely his invisible aura commanded all existence, akin to a true king.
"Not good, they even have reinforcements."
Zhu Lingyu showed worry.
Just when she looked at this Young Master, she discovered Zhu Cangyan was beside him.
How could the useless elder brother be by the side of the God Demon Descendants? Could he have defected to the enemy?
No matter what, the current situation seemed dire; knowing what she now knew, she should have listened to Chen Yu’s advice to retreat earlier!
The Blood Race and God Demon Descendants faced off; the atmosphere became tense.
Suddenly.
The ground fractured, revealing a deep chaotic vortex leading to an unknown world.
"This..."
Zhu Lingyu couldn’t help but look at Chen Yu.
She had sensed since earlier that Chen Yu was exploring the secrets here.
Yet the man unexpectedly opened the small world that even the Holy Blood King couldn’t.
Chen Yu showed embarrassment, not knowing how he managed to open this small world; it was clearly a good thing, but its timing was off.
"What?"
The Holy Blood King gazed, his eyes flashing with eerie blood light.
"Hmm?"
The Young Master also looked at Chen Yu, his deep cold eyes pondering something.
The small world hidden here was left by a powerful God Demon Descendant, difficult for others to open. Even the Holy Blood King had failed, yet a mere human lad had stumbled upon and opened it.
