It was a vast forest with towering ancient trees with thick leaves. Each of them was around one hundred meters tall. They looked like a mountain of trees.
The fresh and natural air blew over their faces. Shi Yan's team was shaken after they had crossed the barrier. Then, they started to observe the surroundings.
"Ah!"
Cecilia couldn't help but cry out in alarm. Her charming face revealed an uneasy expression, and she suddenly became vigilant.
Mo Fou, Sha Zhao, and the Wu brothers also changed their countenances. They furrowed their brows and looked at the people in front of them.
Under the shade of the towering ancient trees stood many cultivators of different races. Their auras were thick and fierce. Their gazes were all focused on the crowd, and their expressions were quite strange.
Apparently, they weren't members of the Protoss Clan.
The leader of this group was a slender and tall woman. Her light green hair draped to her waist. She was wearing a long green dress that reached the ground. Her face was exquisite and her facial features were perfect. She wore a green crystal crown on her head. She had a noble and arrogant aura. Her emerald eyes were crystal clear as she looked at the others coldly.
Beside her, there were four men who clearly belonged to the same race as her. They wore shining armor, and their expressions were solemn and grave as they surrounded her.
Many warriors from different star areas and different races spread out, vaguely taking this woman as the center. They protected her like stars surrounding the moon, as if her life was their primary goal.
A cluster of green flames floated above the woman's head, releasing clear soul fluctuations.
Shi Yan glanced at the woman. His pupils shrank as he was frightened.
It was lucky that he had retrieved his co-soul back to his soul altar before he had crossed the barrier. Otherwise, the other would know what his co-soul meant at first glance...
Just like him, this woman was also a special existence who had fused with the Origin. She wasn't bound in this ancient continent. The green flame floating above her head was another wisp of her soul that could sense the energy fluctuations of the ancient continent.
Shi Yan was startled.
First, it was Haig. Now, it was this woman. This ancient continent was really magical. It had attracted the most brilliant experts of this universe to this place.
Looking at the unknown woman in front of him, many thoughts flashed in his head. The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became...
If she was still alive, it meant one fact: the Protoss force in this territory had been cleaned up!
This discovery frightened ShiYan inexplicably. The way he looked at the woman in front of him became more cautious and solemn. He was thinking about what words he should use to negotiate with the other party.
Mo Fou, Cecilia, Wu Feng, Sha Zhao, and the others were bewildered, their faces odd. They had heard Shi Yan tell them something. They knew that this woman in green was like Haig. She was a special existence that wasn't bound by the ancient continent. This made their eyes brighten. They were so excited.
"You guys have killed all the members of the Protoss Clan here?" asked Mo Fou excitedly.
Including the woman, the other side had twenty-six warriors from different clans. Their realms and powers were all intimidating. Compared to them, including Shi Yan, there were only twelve warriors on their side. Apparently, their overall competence was much weaker than the other side.
Adding the twenty-six warriors of the other side, Mo Fou thought that they had the power to resist Haig, Mia, and Phelps. As they were pushed into a hopeless situation, they didn't know what they would encounter after crossing the barrier. Today, they found that the other side had twenty-six forces that had the same situation as them. Mo Fou was so happy that he felt like he had a glimmer of hope.
Unfortunately, what the woman said had smashed his excitement...
"You have two choices," the woman said coldly and arrogantly. The woman said coldly and arrogantly. Looking at her expression and aura, it was as if everyone should listen to her orders and crawl at her feet. It was a natural sense of superiority, a kind of arrogance from beginning to end. "Either listen to my orders and do as I say, or … go back the way you came. I will spend a lot of effort to clean up this place. Those who don't obey will not be allowed to stay."
Mo Fou's team furrowed their brows.
"I think you guys know about the operation of the Protoss to clean the ancient continent. Just like you guys, we're the victims. Haig, Mia, and Phelps are chasing after us. We were forced to cross the barrier to get here. I hope you guys can join hands to resist the Protoss. "
Cecilia smiled unnaturally and explained, "If we go back, I'm afraid that we can't escape from Haig's team. So, we..."
"It has nothing to do with me." The woman interrupted her and said coldly, "I'm going to tell you one more time. Either you listen to me or you leave this place. Or else, we will kill you."
Listening to her, the fierce aura of the twenty-five warriors from different clans was released. It was like many needles pricking Mo Fou, Cecilia, and the others. They felt so uncomfortable.
"Why?" Wu Feng asked with a dark face.
"You don't have the right to bargain with me." The woman turned around impatiently and walked deeper into the forest. She said coldly, "I'll give you five minutes to consider."
Four cultivators of the same race followed behind her and headed towards the back of the forest to protect her. The rest of the martial artists suddenly lay down or leaned against the tree trunks, looking at them with cold expressions on their faces.
"Polk! Are you Polk? "Sha Zhao looked at someone and screamed in fear.
A muscular Dark Spirit Clan warrior was bewildered for a while. He gazed at Sha Zhao and then reacted. "Are you Sha Zhao of the Gu God Sect?"
"Yes, I am," Sha Zhao forced a smile and asked, "Can you tell me what happened?"
The Dark Spirit warrior called Polk looked at the others around him. Seeing their indifferent countenances, he hesitated for a while and then said, "Audrey's the Princess of the Imperial Dark Tribe. If she didn't lead us this time, we would have been killed by Yu Jia. We've cleaned up the members of the Protoss Tribe in this territory. It's all because of Audrey's supernatural abilities. As we're friends, I advise you to listen to Audrey. That way, you can save your life. "
Polk paused and shrugged at Sha Zhao.
Mo Fou, Cecilia, and Wu Feng listened to him. Hearing that Audrey was the Princess of the Imperial Dark Tribe, they were all shaken in fear.
Sha Zhao's eyes changed. He looked pensive. Then, he turned to look at Shi Yan and then at Cecilia and Mo Fou. He looked like he was asking for their opinion.
Cecilia made a gesture to the crowd, and they slowly retreated, keeping a distance that was hard to see with the naked eye. Then, they set up a barrier to isolate the sound field, and only then did they discuss the matter.
"That woman is called Audrey. She says she's the Princess of the Imperial Dark Tribe. What's the background of this tribe?" frowned Shi Yan.
"You... don't know the Imperial Dark Tribe?" Cecilia was surprised.
Shi Yan shook his head.
"The Imperial Dark Tribe is the royal tribe of the Dark Clan. They live in the mysterious Dark Star Area of this universe. I heard that the God-blessed Mainland, one of the five ancient continents, is located in Dark Star Area. It's also the ancestral star of the Imperial Dark Tribe. The Imperial Dark Tribe rarely interacts with other star areas. This tribe is really intimidating. Their knowledge of the soul altar is peerless. I heard that they have the method to cultivate the soul altar. It's really mysterious. Different from the weak bodies of the Dark Clan, the members of the Imperial Dark Tribe have tough bodies. Dark Star Area is also the holy land of the Dark Clan in this universe. It's really intimidating. The Imperial Dark Tribe is also one of the Four Great Creatures, "explained Cecilia.
"Is the Imperial Dark Tribe really intimidating? How intimidating are they? "Shi Yan was more surprised.
"Let me put it this way. I heard that a long, long time ago, the Imperial Dark Tribe was the most combative race in this universe. Just like the Protoss Tribe, they had conquered the big star areas. However, because of a bloody war, their force was reduced sharply. Their fellows were killed severely. It has been tens of thousands of years and they haven't recovered. Thus, they have been cultivating in Dark Star Area until now. They haven't stirred up any more trouble, "continued Cecilia.
"You said that the Imperial Dark Tribe is one of the Four Great Creatures? What's going on? "Shi Yan was bewildered.
Honestly, Shi Yan knew little about the mysteries of this universe. Raging Flame Star Area wasn't a high-level star area. Agate didn't make any progress and didn't have any contact with the outside world. Thus, Shi Yan didn't know many big events in this vast sea of stars.
Cecilia, Mo Fou, and Wu Feng were different. They lived in star areas and often communicated with each other. They knew many strange things in this vast sea of stars. What they told Shi Yan made him pay more attention to it.
"He comes from Agate, my father's hometown. However, that star area has closed the space passage. They can't communicate with the outside world. That's why they live in their own world," Shang Ying Yue's cold voice arose. Shang Ying Yue's clear and cold voice arose all of a sudden. She looked at the others and said, "Let me tell you about the Four Great Creatures. I know more than you guys."
Everybody seemed to know that Shang Ying Yue's father, Shang Chen, was a Fate Traveler who was active in the big star areas of this universe. Thus, they didn't object and nodded to show their agreement.
"Please enlighten me," Shi Yan put on a stern face, focusing on her and listening to her.
"You know there are five ancient continents in this world, right?" asked Shang Ying Yue.
Shi Yan nodded, "Ancient Demon Continent, Ancient God Continent, Desolate, Grace Mainland, and the last one?"
"It's the God-blessed Mainland," Shang Ying Yue's eyes were clear and cold. Shang Ying Yue's eyes were clear and cold as she said faintly, "The five ancient continents were born at the beginning of the universe. Besides Desolate under our feet, the other four ancient continents used to give birth to strange creatures. Ancient Demon Continent gave birth to the Immortal Demon Clan, Ancient God Continent gave birth to the Protoss, God-blessed Mainland gave birth to the Imperial Dark Tribe, and Grace Mainland, which had disappeared for so many years, gave birth to the Immemorial Monster Tribe, which is also called Heavenly Monster Tribe."
Shang Ying Yue paused for a while and then continued, "The Protoss, Immortal Demon Clan, Imperial Dark Tribe, and Heavenly Monster Tribe are the Four Great Creatures. They were born in the four ancient continents."
