Chapter 226 The Truth!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The roar that pierced through metal and cracked stone was vast and mighty, materializing in the underground space.
It was a sound wave that was visible to the naked eye. It surged up from the ground and spread in all directions, sweeping to every corner of the underground space.
Everywhere it passed, the air clearly poured to the sides, revealing a large expanse of empty space.
It swept all the way to the dome, to the four walls, to one’s heart and soul!
This terrifying beast roar actually had mental destructive power.
Su Jingxing didn’t know about the others but he felt a sharp pain in his brain. Even though it quickly disappeared under the buffer of his powerful soul power, this sound wave attack still made his heart palpitate.
He looked at Bu Qing, Gu Zhanlin, Fan Qi, Lu Wuchang, and the others and realized that they were indeed pale-faced and sweating.
Working up a burst of energy, he led them to charge to the entrance of the fourth level and landed on the steps.
Then, as he panted, recuperated, and stabilized his aura, he looked at the collapsed fifth level through the air and at the lumps of ice crystals that had appeared deep underground.
In the top ranks, even if one did not have the abilities of Distant Vision and Night Vision, one could “see” the world with his Martial Art True Intent and the wonderful effects of his true essence.
Bu Qing, Pu Mingyue, Gu Zhanlin, and the others all had their own methods to stimulate their eyes and see through the darkness to see what the ice crystals deep underground were.
Mutated Beasts!
The ice crystals were just big block of ices.
The blood-colored Mutated Beasts inside them were the key.
They were a type of hideous Mutated Beast that was more than five meters long, had a triangular head, a mouth full of tusks, black horns on its head, a tail like an ox’s, and a body like a deer.
Very similar to the legendary Qilin!
However, they did not have the scales that covered the entire body like a Qilin. There were only layers of dark red blood membranes. Each of their four limbs had five claws, and these sharp claws were as sharp as
chicken claws. They were full of bounce.
In every block of ice was a blood-colored Mutated Beast.
Deep underground, lumps of ice were densely packed. There were more than a thousand of them.
In other words, there were more than a thousand of such Mutated Beasts that could release terrifying sound waves.
At this moment, the blood-colored Mutated Beasts broke out from the ice one after another. They roared, snarled, or leaped into the air as they pounced at the tall and thin man and company floating in the air.
“Hahaha…”
The tall and thin man’s excited laughter continued. It was especially ear-piercing in the terrifying sound waves.
“Come on, babies. Come out, all my babies!”
Amidst his laughter, a blood-colored seal that was more than ten centimeters long appeared in his hand. He held it in his palm and infused his true energy into it, emitting a faint halo.
“The Bloodseeker Seal! Bloodseeker Beasts, they’re Bloodseeker Beasts!”
On the steps leading to the entrance, Pu Mingyue stared at the blood-colored Mutated Beasts underground that were roaring and breaking free from the ice and the blood-colored seal in the lanky man’s hand. She was
pale as a sheet.
“What are Bloodseeker Beasts? Why are there so many of them?”
anting, Lu Wuchang asked anxiously, “Why do these things give me an extreme sense of danger? They feel even more terrifying than a national calamity!”
Su Jingxing was about to ask the same.
Lu Wuchang beat him to it so he swallowed his words.
He only said in a low voice, “This is not a legacy ground, but a seal location!”
“Yes, we were all fooled.”
u Mingyue took a deep breath and said through gritted teeth. “This is the place where the Bloodseeker Beasts are sealed. Back then, the Crimson Moon Martial Sage, Yue Dongliu used his own body to suppress these
beasts!”
“As for the Bloodseeker Beasts, Lu Wuchang, you must have heard of the existence of the Ancient Demons.
“Ancient Demons?”
Lu Wuchang exclaimed, “Are you talking about some of the ancient monsters that existed on Earth Star in ancient times, thpse terrifying lifeforms from other worlds?”
“Yes, it’s them!”
Pu Mingyue said in a deep voice, “Bloodseeker Beasts are the Bloodseekers of the Ancient Demons. They are terrifying Mutated Beasts formed from their own blood essence. They are very difficult to kill. Even if they
die, they can transform back into Bloodseeker Essence Energy to be absorbed by their own kind to become even stronger.
“What’s even more terrifying is that all Bloodseeker Beasts can become stronger by absorbing blood energy. As long as they absorb the blood of sentient living beings, they will become stronger.
“The blood of humans is most suitable. Not only do humans have sentience, there are also enough of us.
“As long as the population of a functional town is massacred by the Bloodseeker Beasts, the blood energy absorbed will be enough for any Bloodseeker Beast to reach the King level and become a Beast King!”
What was the population of a functional town?
7,000 to 8,000 for a big population, or 2,000 for a small one.
Let’s take the average, 5,000!
If more than 5,000 people died, they would become Beast Kings.
If they were to barge into the city and massacre people everywhere, how many people would die?
If the Bloodseeker Beasts then absorbed the diffused blood energy, what level would they reach?!
And how many Bloodseeker Beasts were there underground?
There were more than a thousand of them!
Once these Blood Demons charged into Qinghe City, even if only half of them successfully advance to the Beast King level, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Pu Mingyue’s words stunned the seven people, including Zhao Fengxian.
Everyone felt their scalps go numb, their backs turn cold, and chills ran down their spines.
“Ghost Ride knew that the Bloodseeker Beasts are sealed here. Therefore, they tried all means to get us to gather the legacy stone tablets, open the legacy underground palace, and enter this place. Then, they would
break the final measure left behind by the Crimson Moon Martial Sage, Yue Dongliu, destroy his physical body and break the seal!
“The blood-colored seal in their hands is called the Bloodseeker Seal. It’s rumored to have the ability to control the Bloodseeker Beasts.
“The people of Ghost Ride don’t want to release these Bloodseeker Beasts. Instead, they want to control them for their use!”
Pu Mingyue added softly.
The group of seven fell silent.
Su Jingxing was also silent.
Understood.
Now he understood everything.
Ever since the first photo of the legacy stone tablet was exposed, Ghost Ride had been plotting this scene.
Stirring up trouble everywhere, provoking all the factions in Qinghe City to rush around for the stone tablets, then charging into the Martial Suppression Office and the Prefecture Army, forcing the two official factions
to work together to open the legacy… no, the seal location, and explore the underground palace for them until they arrived at the fifth level.
At the very end, they wanted to control the Bloodseekers Beast that broke out of the seal to attack Qinghe City!
If the Bloodseeker Beasts wanted to become stronger, they had to absorb enough blood energy.
As for the deaths of thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands people,
Ghost Ride wouldn’t mind!
This wasn’t their first time doing such a thing.
In ancient times, for the sake of the benefits obtained, Ghost Ride never minded massacring cities.
Although the population of an ancient city was limited, ranging from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands,
to this day, killing hundreds of thousands or even millions of people had no psychological burden on them.
When they turn all the Bloodseeker Beasts into Beast Kings, even if a Martial Sage were to come, they would dare to go against him!
