Although Fang Chen's current cultivation was at the Mid Stage of the Fifth Qi Hai Realm, he could easily defeat a Late Stage of the Eighth Qi Hai Realm. After becoming a Soul Cultivator, even if he faced a Peak Stage of the Eighth Qi Hai Realm, he would not be afraid.
However, if he faced a Ninth Qi Hai Realm warrior, Fang Chen would not be confident.
"I must increase my strength as soon as possible." Fang Chen said to himself.
The disciples who entered the Divine Illusion Space were all elite disciples of the Sect. Some of them had reached the terrifying Ninth Qi Hai Realm.
Although he hadn't met any powerful disciples yet, he would eventually meet them in the future.
Therefore, the most important thing for Fang Chen now was to increase his strength.
After killing the disciples of the Earth Fire Sect and the Celestial Star Sect, Fang Chen left the mysterious canyon. After the bones disappeared, the canyon became an ordinary canyon.
After leaving the canyon, Fang Chen met many Tie Xi Bears as he passed through the forest. However, these Tie Xi Bears were not as strong as Fang Chen.
After easily killing a few Tie Xi Bears, Fang Chen left the forest.
Just as Fang Chen left the forest, there was a sudden change in his Dantian Qi Sea. This made Fang Chen happy.
"Am I going to break through?"
Fang Chen's face was full of smiles. The change in his Dantian meant that he was about to break through the bottleneck.
Before, Fang Chen's cultivation was at the Mid Stage of the Fifth Qi Hai Realm. This breakthrough would definitely increase Fang Chen's cultivation.
"Let's find a place to break through first." Fang Chen said to himself.
After that, Fang Chen found a direction and quickly moved forward. After a while, Fang Chen met some warriors on the plains.
Among these warriors, there were disciples of the Reverence Sword Sect.
Fang Chen found a disciple of the Reverence Sword Sect. After revealing his identity, the disciple was very surprised.
"Fang Chen, didn't you die on the mountain outside the old city?" The disciple asked curiously.
"I was lucky to escape." Fang Chen grinned.
"I see."
The disciple nodded slightly. No matter what, Fang Chen was the Heaven Sword Son of the Reverence Sword Sect. If he died, it would be a loss for the Reverence Sword Sect. Seeing Fang Chen in perfect condition, the disciple was very happy.
"That's right, on the way here, I met many disciples who were heading in one direction...." Fang Chen asked...
Just now, he had sensed that something was amiss. After walking on the plains for about an hour, he had met many disciples from various sects. Most of them had anxious looks on their faces as they rushed forward.
This puzzled Fang Chen. Just as he was about to ask, he suddenly saw a Sword Reverence Sect disciple.
"You don't know?" asked the disciple.
Fang Chen shook his head. The disciple explained, "Not long ago, on the Crimson Afterglow Peak, a disciple discovered the skeleton of a demonic beast. It's said that the skeleton of this demonic beast belonged to a beast king from ancient times."
"The skeleton of a Beast King!" Fang Chen cried out involuntarily.
A Beast King was definitely a demonic beast that stood at the peak of the demonic beast world. The skeleton of a Beast King had actually been found on the Crimson Afterglow Peak.
"What kind of demonic beast's skeleton was it?" asked Fang Chen.
"It was the skeleton of a Rat Demon. It's said that there is something special in the skeleton of this Beast King. It has been passed down since the ancient era. It's definitely extraordinary. Many disciples from the Sect went there," explained the disciple.
Just as Fang Chen was about to speak, the Little Mouse suddenly appeared on his shoulder. Its little paw was pointing in front of them, chirping incessantly. Its face was filled with anxiety.
"Are you saying you want to go to the Crimson Afterglow Peak?" Fang Chen looked at the anxious Little Mouse.
The Little Mouse nodded incessantly.
Seeing the Little Mouse's anxious appearance, Fang Chen faintly felt that the skeleton of the Beast King that had appeared on the Crimson Afterglow Peak had something to do with the Little Mouse.
No matter what, that Beast King was a Rat Demon. Perhaps the Little Mouse would be able to obtain its inheritance.
Fang Chen didn't think too much about it. He directly nodded and prepared to go to the Crimson Afterglow Peak.
"How far is it from here to the Crimson Afterglow Peak?" asked Fang Chen.
"If we rush at full speed, we should be able to get there in six hours," said the disciple.
Fang Chen thanked the disciple and then left with the Little Mouse.
"The skeleton of a Beast King."
Fang Chen sighed as he hurried along.
No matter what, he had to go to the Crimson Afterglow Peak. Perhaps the Little Mouse would be able to obtain the Beast King's inheritance.
Just as Fang Chen left the plain, a large group of warriors suddenly appeared on the plain. The leader of the group looked around with a puzzled expression on his face.
"Senior apprentice-brother, what is it?" asked a disciple.
"I sensed a special aura." The leading disciple's eyes flickered.
"What aura?" asked another disciple.
"I sensed this aura on the bodies of the dead Starfire Sect disciples," said the leading disciple.
Hearing that, all the disciples' expressions changed.
The Starfire Sect's disciples had scattered after entering the Divine Illusion Space. But not long after, they had discovered their companions, but their companions had already been killed.
This infuriated the Starfire Sect's disciples. The head disciple of the Starfire Sect, Xingkong, swore that he would definitely find the killer and take revenge for the deaths of the Starfire Sect's disciples.
However, while they were searching for the killer, they had also heard that they had discovered the skeleton of a Beast King on the Crimson Afterglow Peak. That made him very excited.
First, they would go to the Crimson Afterglow Peak to fight for the Beast King skeleton.
However, on the way here, he suddenly sensed a familiar aura. Immediately, his expression changed drastically. When he arrived at the plains, he was even more certain that the murderer who killed their Starry Fire Sect disciple had come here.
"He's heading in the direction of the Crimson Afterglow Peak. Chase after him," said Xingkong.
Following that, under Xingkong's lead, the Starfire Sect's disciples quickly chased in the direction of the Crimson Afterglow Peak.
After six hours, Fang Chen finally arrived in front of the Crimson Afterglow Peak. At this time, there were many martial artists standing in front of the Crimson Afterglow Peak. Their gazes were filled with reverence as they looked at the Crimson Afterglow Peak.
When Fang Chen arrived, he immediately sensed a wild aura that swept through the land.
"That is …"
Fang Chen raised his head to look at the sky. He was surprised to find that on the towering Crimson Afterglow Peak, there was a huge skeleton of a Beast King.
This skeleton of a Beast King was a rat demon. Its claws were extended and its face was gloomy. Its body was emitting a terrifying aura.
"It is indeed a Beast King. After being dead for so many years, it can still emit such a tyrannical aura."
Fang Chen was shocked. He was just standing at the foot of the Crimson Afterglow Peak and the aura was already so strong. If a weak martial artist stepped on the Crimson Afterglow Peak, they would not be able to withstand such a powerful aura.
When the Little Mouse saw the skeleton of a Beast King on the Crimson Afterglow Peak, it chirped non-stop. Its face was filled with excitement.
Fang Chen could feel the Little Mouse's excitement, but he signaled the Little Mouse not to be anxious. Since no one had climbed the Crimson Afterglow Peak, it meant that it would be very difficult to climb the Crimson Afterglow Peak. Since he had just arrived, he had to understand the situation first.
Fang Chen looked around. Among the martial artists at the foot of the Crimson Afterglow Peak, there was a martial artist at the ninth level of the Qi Hai realm. The rest of the martial artists were at the late or peak of the eighth level of the Qi Hai realm.
Just as Fang Chen was puzzled, a martial artist could not resist the temptation and stepped onto the Crimson Afterglow Peak.
The moment he stepped onto the Crimson Afterglow Peak, a terrifying ray of light shot out from the Beast King's skeleton above the Crimson Afterglow Peak, instantly entering the warrior's body.
Puchi
The martial artist fell onto the ground and lost all signs of life.
Seeing this scene, many martial artists gasped. This Beast King had been dead for so many years, but it was still so strong.
"How can one climb the Crimson Afterglow Peak?" A disciple could not help but ask.
"Senior Brother Wang Xiao, you are the strongest martial artist here. Do you know how to climb the Crimson Afterglow Peak?" A disciple asked the ninth level of the Qi Hai realm martial artist.
Wang Xiao was an outstanding disciple of the Wang family of the Moon continent. The Wang family was one of the most powerful forces in the Moon continent and one of the nine Two Star Sect in the central region.
Although Wang Xiao wasn't the strongest member of the Wang Family's younger generation, his potential was still among the top of the Wang Family's younger generation.
The Divine Illusion Dimension was very big. After entering the dimension, all the disciples of the Sect were scattered.
This time, the news of the Beast King being found on the Crimson Afterglow Peak was only spread in a small circle. Many of the big Sect did not know about it.
Among the martial artists here, Wang Xiao was the strongest and had the highest status.
"That's right, Senior Brother Wang Xiao, you are one of the strongest martial artists in the Wang family. You must know how to climb the Crimson Afterglow Peak." Hearing a disciple's question, the other disciples also asked.
Their gazes all gathered on Wang Xiao. Fang Chen also looked at Wang Xiao. He carefully examined Wang Xiao and found that deep within his eyes, there was a bloodthirsty killing intent.
"If my guess is correct, the Beast King on the Crimson Afterglow Peak is protecting it. Human martial artists are unable to enter the Crimson Afterglow Peak. Only Demonic Beasts can enter." Wang Xiao said with a smile.
Hearing Wang Xiao's words, many martial artists frowned and asked: "Could it be that the Beast King's inheritance is something that we humans cannot obtain?"
"The Beast King was a strong martial artist. Although they had fallen, the inheritance they left behind would not be obtained by human martial artists. It must have been left behind for their descendants." A disciple said.
Wang Xiao nodded and said: "The Beast King's inheritance can only be obtained by Demonic Beasts."
After saying that, a big white dog appeared beside Wang Xiao. When the big white dog saw the skeleton of the Beast King on the Crimson Afterglow Peak, its eyes were filled with passion.
Woof! Woof!
The big white dog looked at the skeleton of the Beast King and barked loudly. It seemed to be telling Wang Xiao that it wanted to enter the Crimson Afterglow Peak.
"Go."
Wang Xiao gently patted the big white dog's forehead and said.
The snow-white dog ran towards the Crimson Afterglow Peak. In the blink of an eye, it entered the Crimson Afterglow Peak. Everyone realized that the beast king didn't attack the dog after it entered the Crimson Afterglow Peak.
Immediately, the martial artists with Spiritual Beasts released their Spiritual Beasts and let them fight for the Beast King's inheritance.
All kinds of Spiritual Beasts rushed into the Crimson Afterglow Peak.
