Inside the Thousand Corpse Abyss, tides were surging, and killing intent was spreading everywhere. The Blind Toothed Sea Demons were rushing to the front in the most hideous way. Li Yao could not help but raise his wariness to the maximum. Should anything go wrong, he would crash into the wall next to him and crawl into the rocks to escape.
Mo Tiesheng and the other gladiators were truly in the state of suspended animation. They were more like puppets whose strings had been cut. Their limbs were loose, and they were falling freely.
When the gladiators were about to become the delicious food in the belly of the Blind Toothed Sea Demons, the dark rocks on one side of the wall suddenly slid to two sides without a sound, revealing a few pathways. Sticky nets that looked like spider webs extended out of half of the pathways and dragged all the gladiators into the pathway.
In the other half of the pathways, the dead bodies of almost a hundred demon beasts were spurted out, replacing the gladiators as the food of the Blind Toothed Sea Demons!
The whole process was so smooth that nobody would notice anything wrong unless they were crouching around the giant pit and observing with their eyes wide open.
Just like that, the gladiators who were supposed to be buried in the belly of the Blind Toothed Sea Demons were dragged into the depths of the ground!
"Hurry up and inject the antidote!"
"There are quite a few promising talents in the new batch of blood. They must not die. Send them into the biochemical slots to be treated!"
Sensing that the cold tip of the needle was pierced into his veins softly and that a cool, transparent antidote was injected into his body and flowed through his body slowly, Li Yao smiled and knew that he had successfully infiltrated the Blade of Chaos.
…
One day later, deep inside the Skeleton Island, three hundred meters below the ground, inside the secret base of the Blade of Chaos …
"Where is this guy from exactly? His body is too strong!"
"It is impossible to tell from his appearance. He is no more than three meters tall and weighs no more than a thousand kilograms. But the strengthening drugs he has swallowed are more than the five mutated Red Blood Bronze Bulls!"
"Strange. His blood was extracted for analysis, but no anomaly was found. He is just the most common chaotic-blood demon. "
"So, this is what the legends say. Is he exceptionally talented? "
"It is said that the density of the 'Tiger Devil Muscle Forging Powder' should be increased by three times. Look at this monster's reaction. Maybe this time, we've really found a treasure. We've unearthed a tyrannical warrior! "
Li Yao's eyes were slightly closed as he floated in a huge biochemical slot. His entire body was soaked in a slightly red liquid. This liquid was as viscous as gum. It contained a variety of strengthening ingredients, and under the effect of the weak pressure, it slowly seeped into his pores.
He eavesdropped on the conversation of the members of the Blade of Chaos outside by sensing the feeble vibration of the glass of the biochemical slot.
It did not sound like the Blade of Chaos had any ill intentions. They were truly recruiting powerful newcomers.
This was exactly what Li Yao wanted.
The mental devil yawned in boredom deep inside its brain. "The healing drugs are as mild as water. It will take one and a half days to heal such minor wounds? If it were me, I would be able to repair it in a matter of minutes if I were to stimulate its potential! "
"The 'Tiger Devil Tendon Forging Powder' that they developed is barely passable. But the concentration was too low. Three times? It's at least ten times more exciting! "
"However. Hehe. There is indeed a lot of good stuff in the secret base of the Blade of Chaos. I was right to come here! "
Li Yao agreed with the mental devil.
He was not in the only Biochemical Slot in the base. He was in a vast natural karst cave underground, and there were hundreds of Biochemical Slots lined up in a row around him. There were also many Biochemical Slots embedded in the rock walls like cocoons, and there was a powerhouse lying quietly in each of them.
Although they were covered in layers of viscous drugs … Li Yao could still sense clearly that the biochemical slots were being strengthened. The auras were getting stronger every minute.
In the area five hundred meters on his left, the height of the enormous biochemical slot was more than twenty meters. The demons that were soaked in the biochemical slots for refinement almost looked like dinosaurs that had traveled from the primeval era to modern times. Even Li Yao secretly clicked his tongue when he saw them.
The capability of the Blade of Chaos was indeed not as simple as it appeared to be. The so-called 'Riot of Bloody Blade' was definitely not their real outbreak!
Li Yao did not have the patience to wait any longer. His eyelids slightly shivered, and he slowly opened them. Brilliance that was enough to penetrate the strengthening drugs, the tempered glass, and the thick rocks beamed out of his scarlet left eye.
"He's awake!"
"The poison in his body is the heaviest of all the gladiators, and he has woken up so quickly? What a monster! "
"Hurry up and change the composition of the drugs. Inject the tranquilizer!"
Very soon, Li Yao saw an old man with pure white wings standing in front of the biochemical slot with a smile.
The old man was wearing a white robe, with a crimson emblem of the Blade of Chaos on his chest.
Seeing the sharp blade that had cut off the gene strands again, Li Yao suddenly had a different feeling.
"Am I … dead?"
Li Yao pretended to be weak and clumsy while he drew on the tempered glass with his finger.
Perhaps countless gladiators who had woken up had asked the same question, but the old man soon recognized his problem.
"No."
The old man's voice came over through the warm strengthening drugs. It was somewhat fuzzy and unclear. "You have been reborn."
…
In the eighteenth hour after Li Yao was' reborn '…
In the previous fifteen hours, the Blade of Chaos had performed a series of thorough body examinations on him.
Under the disguise of the mental devil, he naturally passed the test successfully.
After a brief rest, he was led by two members of the Blade of Chaos through a long pathway and came to a quiet underground temple.
There was nothing in the temple, but enormous murals decorated the surroundings. However, they were not the glorious and holy images of the gods and devils, nor were they the scenes of the bloody battles of the heroes. Instead, they were the mysterious gene strands, the cells of various shapes, and the fossils of countless ancient creatures.
These murals added a mysterious, unfathomable, and solemn feeling to the hall.
Other than Li Yao, the same batch of gladiators who had been 'miserably killed' showed up one after another, including those who were swallowed by the swamp.
Li Yao was dazed at first, but he immediately realized what was going on. There were obviously traps below the so-called 'Hell Bone Swamp'. Once the gladiators fell into them, they would be dragged away from the secret tunnels down below. After a few days, a few bones that were similar to their body shape would be projected to the top. Then, they would be able to pass themselves off as the real deal.
Those gladiators did not have bodies as tough as Li Yao's. Although they had managed to wake up, almost all of them were wrapped in thick bandages and carrying almost ten bags of treatment drugs. Some of them were even soaked in portable biochemical slots and slowly pushed over.
They were still in a daze after being 'reborn'. They were even more shocked when they saw that their companions who should've died in the battle in the Hell Bone Swamp were standing as perfectly fine as they were.
Only a few gladiators, including Mo Tiesheng, who was wrapped in thick plaster and looked like a bronze statue, were deep in thought and vaguely realized what was going on.
"Congratulations on your rebirth, brothers!"
Along with vague laughter, noises echoed from below the ground at the end of the temple. The ground spread out like chrysanthemums, and a throne slowly rose up.
The shape of this throne was very strange. It was like countless gene strands were woven together. These gene strands were sparkling and translucent. From inside to outside, they emitted a magnificent luster, causing the huge palace to be filled with the aura of life in an instant.
However, there was no one on the geno throne. In front of the throne, there were three tall figures.
Standing on the two sides emotionlessly were the two Death Teeth Guards who had 'killed' them in person.
The most magnificent shadow in the middle, however, belonged to Yuchi Ba, the master of the Skeleton Island!
Li Yao had seen it coming and was not surprised. The other gladiators, however, were caught unprepared and exclaimed in surprise.
At this moment, Yuchi Ba had abandoned the glamorous robe that he wore in the arena and put on a plainer skeleton training armor. He was wearing an emblem of the Blade of Chaos made of black iron on his chest. The black surface of the emblem was vaguely filled with bloody stripes. There was no telling whether the emblem was refined or soaked in blood because he had slaughtered too many enemies.
Yuchi Ba walked to the middle of the crowd slowly. He glanced at the wounds on everyone's body quickly and stopped at Li Yao for a long time. In the end, he stared at Mo Tiesheng and said frankly, "I know that you must have a lot of questions in your heart, brothers. Now that I have shown my real face today, I will certainly answer all your questions!
"Before I clear your doubts, allow me to reintroduce myself. I, Yuchi Ba, the master of the Skeleton Island, am a believer of Chaos. You may consider me the highest representative of the Blade of Chaos in Void Turmoil City!"
Many of the smarter gladiators had already figured out what was going on from his outfit. However, they were still shocked when they heard him admit it so frankly. There was another commotion.
Many gladiators had accepted the ideology of the Blade of Chaos subconsciously during their training camp. Now that they were 'resurrected', they were rather touched that they had found an organization. For a moment, their eyes were brimming with tears, and they did not know what to say.
Li Yao and Mo Tiesheng were the only ones who did not change their expressions. Mo Tiesheng even furrowed his eyebrows and asked solemnly, "Master Yuchi, so, everything has been arranged by you from the beginning to the end?
"You captured us on purpose, asked us to receive the harshest training and life-and-death battles, and selected the strongest among us so that we could join the Blade of Chaos?"
With his hands behind his back, Yuchi Ba said casually, "Many brothers ask me the same question when they see me after they wake up."
"And my answer every time is the same. That's right, all of this was arranged by me. You can even say that I used swindling, despicable, and shameless methods to forcibly bring everyone here!"
"On the Skeleton Island, you have been through the harshest training and received strengthening drugs dozens of times, if not hundreds, of times more than the normal range. Many of your brothers were mentally deranged, and their cells collapsed. Many of your brothers were also killed miserably in the arenas, without a body left!"
