The Great Ruler - Chapter1022

During the ancient times, there was once a strange beast that didn't consume plants or flesh, and it only consumed lightning as food. Moreover, countless bolts of lightning converged within its heart, and it was condensed layer by layer, causing it to possess destructive energy.

However, this beast was docile by nature and would not harm others. But once it was truly angered and forced into a dead end, it would detonate its heart. It was said that once a Lightning Devouring Beast that had lived for ten thousand years exploded its heart, the might it would unleash was indescribable.

There were rumours that said that there was once an Earth Sovereign Realm powerhouse that attempted to capture the Lightning-Devouring Beast as a pet. But in the end, he angered the Lightning-Devouring Beast and caused it to explode its heart. In the end, even that Earth Sovereign Realm powerhouse died in the explosion.

However, the Lightning-Devouring Beast was too rare, and it was even rarer in the Great Thousand World. Therefore, it was gradually forgotten.

In the stone pagoda, when Mu Chen heard Han Shan's introduction, he felt his scalp going numb. The hand that was holding onto the silver heart trembled, fearing that the heart would explode. If that's the case, none of them would be able to escape alive.

"The Lightning-Devouring Beast's heart can be distinguished by its colour. It's said that after ten thousand years, it would turn into a pure gold colour. Right now, it's silver, so it should be at least a thousand years old. Although it's impossible for it to kill an Earth Sovereign, it's probably lethal to anyone beneath the Earth Sovereign Realm." Han Shan looked at the silver heart with a little greed in his eyes.

With the Lightning-Devouring Beast's heart in his possession, he would have another terrifying trump card. If he was forced into a corner and took it out, anyone would be fearful.

Mu Chen was also aware of this. He could not help but grin and carefully put the silver heart away. With this item, it was equivalent to having a chance to save his life.

However, this item could only be used once, so unless it was a last resort, it would be too wasteful to use it.

"Brother Mu, you're really lucky."

When Han Shan saw Mu Chen's harvest, he couldn't help but feel envious. The three items that Mu Chen had obtained were all extraordinary.

If it was converted to Sovereign Spiritual Liquids, it would probably be close to 10,000,000 drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquids. Compared to the 1,500,000 drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquids that he had paid, it had undoubtedly exceeded the price.

Mu Chen's eyes were similarly filled with unconcealable joy.

His harvest this time had also exceeded his expectations.

But if it wasn't for Mo Ling's unique ability, it would be impossible for him to have such a shocking harvest. Of course … he was even more fortunate that he could use the Spiritual Array.

He was barely able to break these headache-inducing seals.

Both of them were indispensable.

Mu Chen quickly restrained the happiness in his heart, and then he looked at Han Shan and asked, "Brother Han, we're about to arrive at the Myriad Beast Graveyard. Then can you tell us about the situation of seizing the Treasure Beast?"

Jiu You, Mo Feng, and the others also looked over. Their main objective for this trip to the Graveyard of Myriad Beasts was to find clues about the Undying Bird.

Although it was tempting, it was still secondary.

Therefore, they had to figure out exactly what kind of danger was involved so that they could weigh the pros and cons.

When Han Shan heard his words, he nodded his head. "That's right … The experts of my clan that entered the Divine Beast Origin said that it wasn't only our Demonic Rhino Clan that discovered the Treasure Beast."

"Which other clans?" Mo Feng asked.

"There are two other clans, the Sky Wolf Clan and Golden Lion Clan." Han Shan said.

When Mu Chen heard his words, he squinted his eyes.

They were two clans with deep foundations. If they evolved to the limit, they would become the Moon-Devouring Sky Wolf and the Nine-headed Golden Lion, existences that could confront Super Divine Beasts.

However, it seemed that after tens of thousands of years.

He had never heard of anyone from the two races successfully evolving to this stage. From this, it could be seen how difficult it was to reach the final stage of evolution.

But even so, the Sky Wolf Clan and Golden Lion Clan were famous in the Great Thousand World.

They couldn't be underestimated.

"We have once made an agreement with the experts of the Sky Wolf Clan. At that time, we might join hands to expel the Golden Lion Clan. If that's the case, then we will have an extra share of the treasures." Han Shan smiled.

Mu Chen cast a glance at Han Shan in astonishment. He never expected that Han Shan had already roped in the Sky Wolf Clan. If that's the case, then the Golden Lion Clan might be cheated.

"The Sky Wolf Clan is cunning and ferocious. We have to be careful when cooperating with them." Jiu You reminded.

Han Shan nodded his head. He wasn't naïve, so he knew how fragile this agreement was. If anything happened, then the Sky Wolf Clan might make a move against them. This was the reason why he had invited Mu Chen's party. Otherwise, if he was confident, then he naturally wouldn't want others to share the treasures.

"Aside from those clans that might compete for the Treasure Beast, there are also some Beast Spirits that have been corroded by the deathly aura in the burial ground of the Treasure Beast, which are also troublesome to deal with."

"Beast Spirits?

How many are there?

What's their strength? "

Mu Chen briefly pondered. The so-called Beast Spirits were experts of the Spiritual Beast Clans that had fallen and were corroded by the deathly aura, turning them into walking corpses. However, they still maintained a portion of their strength when they were alive and weren't afraid of death. So it would be troublesome if they were tangled with them.

"There's quite a lot of them, with the majority being in the Fifth and Sixth Grade Sovereign Realms. But there should be some that are more troublesome to deal with, so we have to be careful. Otherwise, we will have to pay a considerable price." Han Shan spoke with a grave expression.

Mu Chen nodded his head. The information that Han Shan knew wasn't too clear. Since the Myriad Beast Graveyard could become a famed ominous land in the Divine Beast Origin, it shouldn't be a sightseeing place. So this competition for the Treasure Beast wouldn't be too easy.

But they had already come this far, so no matter how dangerous the Myriad Beast Graveyard was, they couldn't give up. After all, the clues of the Undying Bird could only be found there.

Once again, Mu Chen and the rest discussed their plans for the treasures. Thereafter, they did not speak any further and left. When night fell, they entered into their cultivation states.

As usual, Mu Chen had immersed himself in the comprehension of the Self-Sacrificial Demonic Punch.

Thus, the night passed quickly without any words.

When the next morning arrived, this region had instantly become bustling with an endless stream of silhouettes flying over. At the same time, there were also silhouettes that left this transaction point and headed towards their respective destinations.

The entire world seemed to be bursting with vitality.

"Let us get moving as well." Han Shan looked at Mu Chen's group of four and smiled.

Mu Chen and Jiu You nodded their heads, before they flew out of the stone pagoda and turned into streaks of light that flew towards the horizon with Han Shan and the rest closely following behind them.

Not long after Mu Chen's group left, ten-odd silhouettes suddenly appeared outside the stone pagoda. One of them was extremely familiar, it was Bai Bin, who had suffered a great loss in the hands of Mu Chen yesterday.

But at this moment, the prideful expression on Bai Bin's face had already been retracted. That's because there was a blue-clothed man standing before him with an indifferent expression. His eyes were ice-blue and as he swept his gaze, even the atmosphere was frozen.

"Big Brother Bai Ming, those fellows must have fled." Bai Bin carefully said as he looked at the empty stone pagoda.

The blue-clothed man, whom he called Bai Ming, knitted his brows and cast a glance at him, which made Bai Bin feel a chill down his spine.

"Is the True Phoenix Aura on that person true?" The blue-clothed man faintly asked.

"It's absolutely true. That pressure can't be wrong. Furthermore, that person should be a human. He must possess a supreme treasure of our clan. Otherwise, it's impossible for him to possess the pressure of a True Phoenix." Bai Bin hurriedly said.

The blue-clothed man lightly nodded his head with a smear of shock flashing in his eyes. True Phoenix Aura … that was something that only those with the highest bloodline in their Phoenix Clan could possess. Just what treasure did that human possess?

If he could obtain it, then he might be able to refine his bloodline and greatly increase his strength.

"Have you investigated the direction that they left in?" The blue-clothed man asked again.

"It should be the northwest direction." Bai Bin replied.

"That direction …" The blue-clothed man was briefly stunned before he lightly smiled. "That's the direction of the Myriad Beast Graveyard. Looks like they're heading towards the same destination as us. Looks like even the heavens aren't helping them."

"Big Brother Bai Ming, are we going to chase after them?" Bai Bin asked.

The blue-clothed man shook his head. "I still have some things to purchase in this transaction point. Since they're also heading towards the Myriad Beast Graveyard, then we will definitely encounter them. There's no need to rush, let them jump around for a while."

When the blue-clothed man finished speaking, he turned around and left, leaving Bai Bin to stare at the northwest direction with unwillingness and eerily said, "I'll let you guys live for a few more days!"

…

Mu Chen and the rest, who had already left the transaction point, naturally didn't know that someone was targeting them. But even if he knew, he probably wouldn't be bothered with his character. After all, he knew that he would attract trouble when he made a move against Bai Bin. But it was just as he had said, he would never hide from anything. If the person invited by Bai Bin thought that he could trample on him, then Mu Chen wouldn't mind making him pay a heavy price.

So, at this moment, he was still rushing towards the Myriad Beast Graveyard with all his heart and soul.

For the next two days, they did not waste any time and raised their speed to the limit. When the sun enveloped the land on the second day, their silhouettes had already appeared on a lone peak.

Their gazes looked into the distance as their expressions turned exceptionally grave.

A thick grey mist suddenly appeared in the distant mountain range. The greyish Qi was extremely dark and cold, and there seemed to be countless eerie ghost howls faintly echoing from within.

In the sky, there were countless tombs with torrential deathly aura.

They had finally arrived at the Myriad Beast Graveyard.

(To be continued.)
