Chapter 614: Chapter 600 Blood Altar Crisis Strikes! _1

At a distance of 8,000 miles from Dragon Fall Mountain stands an ancient mountain, towering amid the solitary peaks and ranges. Like a crane among chickens, this mountain, towering ten thousand feet high and spanning a hundred miles, stands out in comparison to the surrounding mountains in a ten-thousand-mile radius.

However, this ancient mountain, from thousands of feet high, possesses a massive crevice. This fissure runs from thousand-foot-high ridge down to the foot of the mountain. The powerful wind tirelessly pours into this massive crack, creating a rumbling noise.

This massive fissure extends into the heart of the ancient mountain. At the foot of the ancient mountain, a unique ravine has formed in the presence of a massive waterfall, producing splashes of silver light. Surrounding this waterfall are armed warriors standing tall and brave.

Upon a careful observation, it becomes clear that these warriors have strategically positioned themselves around the waterfall. Purposefully or not, they are protecting the waterfall.

These warriors, adorning jet-black armor, emit a hint of radiant crystalline shine. They have dark yellow glint in their eyes, and emit a peculiar aura that is different from the Qi emitted by human warriors in their cultivation of Combat Qi.

The sound of rushing water.

Suddenly, from within the ancient city a few feet ahead of them, a chaotic sound of footsteps is heard. After a while, an equally armored warrior carrying a giant exotic beast, several feet in size, strides towards the waterfall.

"Yu Ming, over the past three days, you’ve only managed to slay three Evil Beasts, and on top of that, these beasts were pitifully weak. The essence of the blood and flesh of these weak beasts will not be of much use in the upcoming tasks for the tribe," exclaimed a man standing guard by the waterfall, slight mockery oozing from his eyes.

Getting miffed, Yu Ming carrying the Evil Beast retorts, "In the past few months, we’ve only managed to kill close to a hundred three-star and four-star Evil Beasts within a radius of thirty-thousand miles. If you believe that I’ve been killing weak beasts, then let’s switch roles. I can guard this place while you go deep into the mountain ranges to hunt the beasts!"

Upon hearing Yu Ming’s rebuke, the other warrior shut his mouth. The area they occupied was frequented by four-star Evil Beasts whose power could rival that of their venerable leader. If their leader wasn’t around, they would have been turned into the feces of the Evil Beasts a long time ago.

Facing the dangers of hunting beasts deep into the mountain ranges and potentially falling into the nest of a four-star Evil Beast, one wrong step could mean losing their lives on the spot. They did not want to meet the same fate as their comrades who were swallowed whole by a four-star Evil Beast.

Even though they, the Royal Beast Race, have a natural gift that allows them to tame a beast to become their life beast, these beasts are usually ones selected when they are born. Over time, under the influence of this natural gift, these tamed life-beasts can rapidly grow to maturity, allowing the warriors to borrow their divine powers.

In their tribe, if one could contract a beast with noble blood lineage, their strength would drastically increase. One example is the leader of their tribe who, at a young age, had contracted a white tiger beast, which has both him and the beast advance into the royal realm.

Each member of their group, who have descended to the Human Realm this time, possesses power equivalent to at least a human warrior in the fourth stage of the Towering Realm. Even though a venerable was present in their team, the exhaustion and restrictions they had to bear to access the Desolate Wilds from the Beast Underworld were too significant. As a result, their life-beasts were left behind in their realms, leading to a decrease in their strength.

Hoo!

Yu Ming did not say another word, carrying the Evil Beast and soaring towards the large crevice above the waterfall.

The great rift gives the impression of splitting the ten-thousand-feet high, ancient mountain in half. But once you enter the crevice, you discover a whole different world. Carrying the beast, Yu Ming is very familiar with the road and quickly disappears into the depths of the crevice.

Even though he carries the gigantic beast on his shoulder, he does not find the cliff wall confined. After many twists and turns, and about a few miles later, he finally reaches the deep belly of the mountain.

The belly of the mountain is of several miles in radius, and reeks of a strong smell of blood. In the corner of the surrounding rock walls, beast bones and scale armors are scattered around.

In the center of the mountain belly, there is a blood altar that spans about ten feet. Around the altar is a pond of blood, with coagulated blood constantly bubbling. Standing on the altar is an elderly man in a white robe, his eyes flickering as he opens and closes his brows.

The blood altar is crystalline and covered in flowing lights, filled with numerous intricate patterns resembling veins. The thick blood in the pool continuously flows into the altar following these vein-like patterns.

Whoosh!

Yu Ming throws the beast’s carcass on his shoulder into the air above the blood pool. Immediately, a streak of bloody light flashes across and the giant beast’s head is severed. As blood spurts from the beast, it splashes into the pool.

"Venerable, I have returned."

Kneeling on the floor, Yu Ming bows towards the white-robed warrior on the altar.

"Have you completed your investigations?"

After a long while, the white-robed warrior turns around and finally breaks the silence.

"Venerable, I have indeed completed my investigations. Yu Feng was killed by a human. However, the human who killed Yu Feng has disappeared without a trace."

Yu Ming’s voice was very respectful, even his bowed head did not lift from the ground, then he carefully said, "Venerable one, it is obvious that the local Human War Tribe has discovered us, do we need to switch to another place?"

"No need!" The voice of the white-robed warrior was somewhat chilling, making Yu Ming tremble a bit. "In this area of hundreds of thousands of miles, there are only two mid-level Human War Tribes. Their strength still can’t shake the plans of my Royal Beast Race. Even if we are discovered, it doesn’t matter. The altar is about to absorb enough energy, even if we are discovered by the Human Clan, they can contribute to the blood essence for the altar."

"What sacrifice is better than human flesh and blood!" A Li Mangflashed in the eyes of the white-robed Venerable.

"What the Venerable said is quite right. The Human Race is originally the Blood Food kept by the Hundred Clans. From ancient times to the present, the Human Race has been an indispensable sacrifice for the Royal Beast Race to offer to the heavens and honor our ancestors. Only the fresh blood of the Human Race can stimulate the glory of our ancestors."

"Venerable, since we have already been discovered by the Human Clan, what should we do next?" Yu Ming continued to ask respectfully.

This time there were nine of them who came down from the Beast Underworld to the Human World. All of them had cultivation beyond the fourth realm of the Towering Realm. Apart from the two who were killed by the turbulence of space during the crossing, and the one who died by the mouth of a Star Beast, and one who was killed by a Human Clan warrior, only five are left now.

"Wait, since they have discovered us, they will definitely send more warriors to investigate." The eyes of the white-robed warrior filled with bloodlust, his mouth curled into a hideous smile. "When the time comes, kill anyone who comes."

"I have already investigated the nearby Human War Tribe completely. It is just a freshly promoted Human War Tribe. Despite its unusualness, the strongest among them is just barely in the fifth level of the Towering Realm. If it wasn’t for the need to hide our tracks to avoid startling them, I would have slaughtered this Human War Tribe long ago."

"Now you don’t need to hunt Exotic Beasts anymore. Just wait and reap the benefits."

"Yes, I understand."

Yu Ming responded respectfully again, but paused for a moment, and then carefully said again, "Venerable, if this is the case, won’t all our previous plans to hide our identities be exposed. What if it attracts the strongest of the Human Clan. After all, this is the Human World. We do not know how much potential and resources the Human Race has accumulated over the endless years."

"Haha! What about it! Things have changed!" The white-robed Venerable burst into laughter right away.

"In a hundred days, the Blood Altar, when the power converges, it will be enough to open a temporary path in the Void and let the strongest of our race descend. Once more strongest from our clan arrive, even if the strongest of the Human Clan come, what can they do?"

"At that time, our Royal Beast Race will break the seal of the Void Path from the Human Realm, and we will dominate this land once again. We have not tasted such delicious Blood Food for tens of thousand years!"

"Moreover, the Heaven’s River is about to descend. If not for this, how could we easily get the chance to break the barrier between the two worlds and descend to the World of Human. When the Heaven’s River descends, it will be our Hundred Clan’s time to counterattack the Human Realm."

"Besides, do you really think only my Royal Beast Race will send warriors to descend to the Wilderness first?"

What!

"Could it be?" Yu Ming’s eyes flashed with ecstasy. If the Hundred Clans took advantage of this opportunity to descend to the Human World, then the Human Clan would surely fall into chaos.

"The Heaven’s River, an opportunity that comes once in tens of thousand years, how can our Hundred Clans pass up on such an opportunity to conquer the Human Clan!"

"Unfortunately, even though the Heavens’ River is about to manifest in the depths of the Void, the mysteries of space are a kind of taboo. Our clan has expended a great deal of resources and effort to just barely bring us to the Human World. If we could bring the Venerables from our clan here, there would be no need for such hiding. This Border Wasteland Region would have been filled with the smoke of battle, with our Beast Clan War Masters galloping across the Wilderness!"

"However, as long as we can operate the altar and open up a temporary channel to allow more of our clan’s Venerables to descend, then we can break the seal in the Void Path together and turn it into an eternal passage. Not to mention the Great Venerable, even the Venerable Strong Ones can descend upon the Desolate Human Realm, and then reclaim our ancestral land that belongs to our Beast Clan.

"What the Venerable said is correct, this is originally the ancestral land of our Beast Clan, the glory of our Beast Clan will once again rule the Desolate Land." Suddenly, Yu Ming raised his head, his eyes filled with fervor.

"You go and tell everyone to keep a close watch on whether there is any movement of the Human Race in Desolate Ancient Forest, and capture everyone for me. They will be transformed into the energy of the altar."

"Yes!"

"Wait!" Just as Yu Ming was about to leave the mountain belly, the white-robed Venerable opened his eyes again and stopped him.

"You take some people and make some noise in the Outer World, slaughter a few Human Clans, it might just provoke the mid-level War Tribe warriors into making a move."

"Yes!"

Suddenly, the white-robed Venerable closed his eyes again and the mountain belly fell into silence.

A thousand miles away.

Xiao Chen’s figure appeared under an Ancient Mountain. The closer he got to the ancient mountain Shi Ya spoke of, the more cautious he became. The Exotic Clan was plotting something, and without a clear picture of their strength, he did not act recklessly.
