The Master of Beasts

Chapter 856 284

After dealing with the old rabbit, no more unexpected events occurred.

But to be honest, Bai Xing, the little lord of Anle Plain, had quite a miserable life, as not a single fierce beast native to Anle Plain recognized him.

This was also somewhat due to Bai Xing's parents hiding him away.

Jin Wen was dead, and that Evil Monkey also vanished without a trace, probably eager to taste the flavor of freedom after losing Jin Wen's control!

"But why did Bai Xing's parents keep Bai Xing's existence so tightly under wraps?"

"Could it be that these beasts with spiritual wisdom cannot reproduce?"

Chen Jiuge subtly glanced at Bai Xing. After receiving the bad news and experiencing another life-and-death crisis, Bai Xing had already fallen into a deep sleep in Ao Li's arms.

"Though the Spider Queen and White Ape King were attacked by the Ghost Fighting Tribe and even their clansmen were slaughtered, they themselves weren't in danger. Why were Bai Xing's parents killed?"

"Could it be because of Bai Xing?"

"It's really strange, this Sunset Mountain Range is getting weirder and weirder!"

"Is the Heavenly Snake really the strongest Beast King?"

Chen Jiuge didn't think so, because the Spider Queen had said that the Heavenly Snake arrived later and was the strongest among the active intelligent fierce beasts.

"Perhaps it wasn't only the three from the Ghost Fighting Tribe who made a move!"

Shaking off the doubts in his heart, Chen Jiuge then noticed that the fog on the small path hadn't dissipated.

"It's still there; is it because of the array set up by Jin Wen?"

"No, given that Jin Wen's cultivation was only Heavenly Immortal, it's impossible for him to set up an array of such scale. Even if he drained himself dry, it wouldn't be possible!"

"Perhaps Anle Plain still hides some secrets, just like that vanished Evil Monkey."

In Jin Wen's memory, this Evil Monkey was saved by him and thus obeyed his orders. But if it was really grateful for Jin Wen's life-saving grace, why didn't it appear when Jin Wen died?

Moreover, Chen Jiuge sensed that this Evil Monkey actually had spiritual wisdom, and the previous attacks felt more like a performance.

The Evil Monkey couldn't break Dabai's defense; its sharp claws sparked violently with each attack. If it hadn't held back, it would have been an all-out attack. Why didn't he have the slightest damage?

Thinking of someone always watching him from the shadows, Chen Jiuge felt a chill in his heart, and his pace quickened. This was not a place to linger!

"Why are you walking so fast?"

Feeling there was no longer any danger, Dabai curiously darted around the sides of the path, as if looking for something fun.

Yue Meng looked at Dabai with a look as if she were looking at a fool and said, "Stop babbling, let's go quickly!"

"Dabai, stop messing around, it's dangerous here!"

The Silver King, who had spent more time with Dabai privately, also looked tense at this moment.

"You guys are acting strange?"

Though feeling puzzled, Dabai nevertheless quickened his pace and caught up with the group.

After a long half hour, the sunlight streaming down through the treetops bathed Chen Jiuge's face, and the oppressive feeling diminished considerably.

"Phew!"

Turning his head to look at the path on the left, Chen Jiuge's heart stirred. Should he take another look?

The right path had already yielded great rewards for Chen Jiuge.

On the surface, Chen Jiuge not only gained Bai Xing and the Divine Hall Core but also collected scenes of Jin Wen and others traversing the passage in the past. It confirmed their earlier speculation that the True Realm passage still existed and, just as before they arrived, the passage was still there, unchanged!

On a deeper level, it also confirmed Chen Jiuge's own speculation.

"The big tribes of the Heavenly Gift Realm indeed have some designs on these intelligent fierce beasts, but they also seem afraid of their existence, which is why they choose to heavily wound these fierce beasts or even massacre their clans!"

"And they have zero tolerance for children born from pairs of intelligent beasts, willing to abandon their plans on the beasts to kill Bai Xing's parents!"

"Master?"

Chen Jiuge was awakened from his contemplation by Yue Meng.

"What's up?"

Yue Meng gestured toward the left path, which looked unchanged but actually appeared somewhat enticing at this moment.

Of course, if it were one of the tribal warriors from the Heavenly Gift Realm, they wouldn't sense the change here; the previously evenly distributed Five Elements Power had now begun to mix together.

Metal, wood, water, fire, and earth—the dispersed Five Elements Power are quite standard and are the most basic elements that make up the world.

However, once the Five Elements Power mixes together, it undergoes a transformation into a highly advanced energy—the Innate Primordial Qi!

It's well known in the Cultivation World that anything with the prefix 'Innate' is far from ordinary.

Like Innate Spiritual Treasures and Innate Spirit Roots, no matter which kind they are, they are extremely valuable.

Innate Primordial Qi is the same; it isn't flashy or astounding in its effects. Its sole purpose is to solidify the cultivator's foundation!

No matter if it's due to overconsumption of elixirs, hidden injuries from fighting techniques, or an unstable aura caused by rushed breakthroughs, the Innate Primordial Qi can solve these issues perfectly, leaving no hidden dangers.

"Innate Primordial Qi!"

Chen Jiuge was quite tempted and gritted his teeth, saying, "Let's do it. Even if it's a trap, as long as there's Innate Primordial Qi, it's worth it!"

Don't be fooled by Chen Jiuge's rapid cultivation advancement since arriving in the True Realm—there's a price for everything!
