Zhong Yue praised in his heart. To be able to obtain the mysterious heritage by chance, this generation's saint city lord was truly a legend. However, what piqued his interest even more was the huge monster that crawled out from the Black Mountain secret realm. It must be incredibly huge for the monster race to call it a monster!
"What a shame it's not the Devil Soul Forbidden Land." Xin Huo sighed, he was disappointed.
All of a sudden, a Qi Practitioner asked loudly, "Why can't the Awakening Qi Practitioners enter?"
"Those above the level of Rebirth will die for sure if they enter the Black Mountain secret realm."
The seneschal said, "Because there is a very strong seal here, the seals on the Spirit Nurturing, Rebirth, Awakening, Atman Body, Inner Core, and Heavenly Dharma levels are all sealed. Any cultivator that enters will trigger the seal and their soul will explode. It was only until a huge monster crawled out from the Black Mountain secret realm that the seals on the Spirit Nurturing and Rebirth levels were loosened. Only the Spirit Nurturing and Rebirth Qi Practitioners can enter. When the monster crawled out from the underground, it was the first time the secret realm saw the light of day. At that time, the saint city lord was just at the level of Rebirth, he entered the secret realm and obtained the heritage of the 【Monster God Ming King Art】. "
Zhong Yue's heart thumped, this secret realm was left behind by the owner of the Black Mountain secret realm, the Monster God Ming King. Qi Practitioners of all cultivation levels were forbidden from entering.
This was like a huge net that could trap all kinds of fishes. However, the huge monster crawled out from the secret realm, causing the net to widen, allowing the small fishes to enter and leave, but the big fishes still couldn't pass through the net.
The saint city lord of the monster race was just a small fish in the level of Rebirth. He entered the Black Mountain secret realm and obtained the heritage of the 【Monster God Ming King Art】. But because his cultivation level was still too low, his knowledge was not as profound as it is now, and his foundation was not strong enough, he only obtained the incomplete 【Monster God Ming King Art】.
Zhong Yue thought, Now, he is the strongest existence in the monster race, the incomplete 【Monster God Ming King Art】 has become a threat to his life. But because his cultivation level is too high, he can't enter the Black Mountain secret realm. That's why he said he wanted to recruit disciples, but in reality, he wanted the young monster Qi Practitioners to enter the secret realm and search for the complete 【Monster God Ming King Art】 for him!
He knew that the saint city lord didn't have the complete 【Monster God Ming King Art】, but the other monster Qi Practitioners didn't know that. They thought that the incomplete 【Monster God Ming King Art】 was just a test given by the saint city lord.
When the Qi Practitioners came out from the Monster God Ming King Art, the saint city lord would only need to say that he wanted to see if the 【Monster God Ming King Art】 they had obtained was complete and if they were qualified to become his disciple. Then, he would be able to obtain the complete 【Monster God Ming King Art】 that the Qi Practitioners had obtained and perfect his own cultivation technique.
The reason why there weren't any Spirit Nurturing Qi Practitioners was probably because the Spirit Nurturing Qi Practitioners were too weak, even if they entered the secret realm, they wouldn't be of much use.
"The Black Qi practitioners still, you," said. "Zhong, the secret realm," The "is, you., I, the, the.
", the.," The Ming said., the 【,, the, the Star Shen, the saying, the ",", "the Qi," The Clan, ","
The steward nodded and said, "If you trigger the seals that kill Awakening, Spirit Body, Essence Core, or even higher, you will die without a burial place. Remember, there were many Qi Practitioners that entered the Black Mountain secret realm, but only the saint city lord made it out alive. "
On the warship, the monster Qi Practitioners were all shocked.
The seneschal was warning them that the Black Mountain secret realm was filled with dangers. Even if they were strong, they wouldn't be able to survive until the end. Furthermore, the "Rebirth" level Qi Practitioners were nothing in the face of the higher level seals!
The Qi Practitioners got off the warship and walked towards the Black Mountain secret realm. Suddenly, Yu Xuanji said, "If there is one, then there will be another. This guy could even dig a hole through the Black Mountain and kill the former saint city lord. I wonder if we will be able to fill the gap between the teeth of this monster. "
The Qi Practitioners stared at him angrily.
Yu Xuanji shrugged and said, "The lantern flower and the transparent fish in this cave are probably the mutated species that came from the secret realm. In the Black Mountain's secret realm, there must be other strange things. Don't say I didn't warn you! "
Zhong Yue nodded. Although Yu Xuanji's words weren't pleasant to the ears, they were on point. There must be some strange things in the secret realm.
I wonder which era the monster god Ming King came from. There are still living creatures in the secret realm he left behind. How strange. And the big guy that escaped from the secret realm, where did he go? This guy could kill the former saint city lord of the monster race, he must be very strong. If he is still alive, he would not be a nobody.
The secret realm and the cave were connected by a swamp. Zhong Yue entered the secret realm and stood on the swamp. He looked around and it really looked like a prehistoric world. Huge plants stood tall, lava flowed down from the sky like a waterfall, and stone pillars supported the huge rock stratum above.
"Save me!"
Suddenly, a shrill cry could be heard. Zhong Yue quickly looked over and saw a monster Qi Practitioner being clamped down by two huge pincers. Hu — — He was pulled into the water and disappeared.
Following that, blood splashed out from the water!
"There's something in the water!"
Many of the Demon Clan members quickly scattered in all directions. One by one, they quickly walked ashore and rushed into the forest. Not a single one of them made a move to rescue him. After all, they were in a competitive relationship, and they could not wait to kill the other Qi Practitioners. Now that they were the only ones left, they could not wait to see the other Qi Practitioners suffer.
"Here, everyone is unreliable."
Zhong Yue also rushed to the shore and walked into the forest. He thought, Even if it's Yu Xuanji and Hu Qimei, they would be opponents here. If they were to meet each other, they might even have to fight to the death!
The competition among the monster race was fierce, not to mention this was the disciple selection battle. If they didn't even have this awareness, then they would be dead for sure.
There were no sounds of birds or roars of beasts in the forest. There were only sounds of insects that came from the depths of the forest. The trees here were tall and ancient, some of them were at least a few thousand years old.
The Wood Qi here is so dense, it would be a great place to cultivate the Wood Sword Qi!
With a thought, Zhong Yue cast the 【Great Boundless Sword Qi】 and absorbed the Wood Qi in the forest. He wasn't born with the Wood Spirit Body, although he cultivated the Wood Sword Qi from Qiu Jin'er's body, the Wood Sword Qi's power was still stagnant.
And the Wood Sword Qi in the Black Mountain secret realm was incredibly dense, it was the perfect place for him to cultivate the Wood Sword Qi!
"I wonder where the Monster God Ming King lived in the arcane realm?"
Zhong Yue leaped onto an ancient tree and stood on the crown of the tree to look for the ruins left behind by the monster god Ming King. Ming King was a monster god, there would definitely be traces left behind in this place. If he wanted to find the complete 【Monster God Ming King Art】, he would have to search for the place where he lived.
"Ah — —"
All of a sudden, a shriek could be heard coming from the sky. Zhong Yue quickly looked over and saw a monster Qi Practitioner reverting to his true form, a huge bird with a wingspan of an acre. The huge bird was surrounded by golden rays and in an instant, its huge body was riddled with holes. Only its bones and feathers were left, falling down from the sky.
What are those golden rays?
Zhong Yue's heart skipped a beat, the golden rays were like flowing golden clouds in the sky, moving like the wind and disappearing into the distance.
Even a Rebirth level Qi Practitioner couldn't fight back, being eaten up so quickly. The danger in the air is too great, if I were to fly in the air, I would be in grave danger!
He quickly looked around and saw a mountain far away, it was extremely steep, if the monster god Ming King were to choose a place to stay, it would definitely be there.
Just as Zhong Yue was about to descend from the crown of the tree, he suddenly saw a faint golden ray on the ground not far away.
What is this? A shell?
After a few moments, Zhong Yue arrived at the place where the golden ray was, it was a thin cicada's wing shell, it looked like the shed skin of some kind of insect, but it was a little too big.
The shed skin of this insect was even taller than him, it was covered with bristles and there were traces of cicada wings on its back. It was the first time he saw such a huge insect!
"It's the insect race!"
Xin Huo was shocked, he flew out from Zhong Yue's psyche ocean and circled around the shed skin twice, he said, "It really is the insect race, I never thought I would see this race here!"
Zhong Yue was puzzled, he asked, "What kind of race is the insect race?"
"Insects have a short lifespan, two to three years at most, it's hard for them to form a civilization, their intelligence is also low, they are unable to form an intelligent race like the monsters and humans. However, the insect race is a mutated species of insects, they are also called the godly insects, they have a long lifespan, they are born with totem carvings on the surface of their bodies, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. As time goes by, they will develop intelligence, but not too high. For example, the spider monster, although it has the word 'monster' in its name, it is actually an insect race. "
Xin Huo explained, "The insect race is already very rare, it was once because of the insect race's rampage, they devoured all living beings and were slaughtered. Who would have thought that there would still be a group of insects surviving in this underground world. These insects are able to reproduce themselves, they can also be forged into weapons, that's why they are called the living soul weapons. "
Zhong Yue lightly knocked on the insect's shed skin, and a clear ringing sound could be heard coming from it. The entire insect's skin was forged from mystic gold!
No wonder they are so strong, eating the monster Qi Practitioners as if they were carrots, just the shed skin is already so tough, the body of the insect race must be even stronger! Could it be that the big guy that crawled out from here is also an insect?
Zhong Yue's heart thumped, he said, "Xin Huo, the insect race is somewhat similar to the demon race, the demon race's mantis demons eat metal, they can refine the metal into their bodies, they are very similar to the insect race."
"The insect race was originally created by the demon race, they used the demon god's blood to nourish the insects, raising them as a tool to fight against the celestial race. Back then, the demon race released the insect race and allowed them to fly in the universe. Wherever the insect race passed by, everything was annihilated. Later on, the insect race developed intelligence, they escaped from the demon race's control, they were hunted down by both the celestial race and the demon race, but the insect race's reproductive ability was too strong, it was impossible to kill them all, allowing the insect race to survive. But the insect race is a treasure, they can absorb all kinds of spiritual energy … Be careful! "
The ground beneath Zhong Yue's feet suddenly rumbled, the ground cracked open, and a golden centipede flew out from the ground, carrying Zhong Yue on its back, its long tail pierced towards Zhong Yue's head like a bolt of lightning. Before the tail even reached Zhong Yue, pale yellow venom could already be seen gushing out.
The tail was shaped like a stick of candied hawthorn, the tip of the tail was extremely sharp, it was glowing with a metallic luster, it looked like an alloy made from dozens of mystic gold!
