The deeper they went, the heavier their breathing became. Li Peiyun's heartbeat sped up uncontrollably. His muscles tensed up as if he was facing a formidable enemy.
"Relax, it's fine." Hu Yan patted his shoulder. "This is my first time here, and I almost knelt down when I saw that thing."
Li Peiyun looked at the Guardians in front of him and realized that they had unknowingly slowed down their footsteps. Their feet landed heavily on the ground as they walked forward one step at a time. Clearly, they were also under some kind of pressure.
Did the breathing sound come from the Emperor?
They were under such pressure just by getting close to it. Was this … the phenomenon of Extreme Dao?!
Li Peiyun was shocked by his own guess. There was only one Extreme Dao in the Blood Descendants World in China. Even the boss of the Bosch Group, who was known as a genius, was stuck at Half-Step Extreme Dao.
When Li Peiyun was wandering around the world to hone his swordsmanship, he had heard of that person. He had not been in the world for a long time, but he was so outstanding that he left his peers behind. Then, he surpassed the experts of the older generation, and after that, he was second only to the Emperor.
Now, no one in the Blood Descendants World could suppress him except for the Buddha head. He advanced at a terrifying speed until he reached Half-Step Extreme Dao. Finally, he encountered a bottleneck. The current Li Xianyu was somewhat like him back then. However, Li Xianyu was a cheat. His speed of advancement was mostly due to his strength and fortuitous encounters.
If even such a person was stuck, it showed how difficult it was to reach Extreme Dao. Li Peiyun did not believe that the leader of the Alliance of Demons was a Extreme Dao. However, such a terrifying pressure was hard to explain.
Could a Half-Step Extreme Dao have such a pressure?
Li Peiyun, who had fought with the Dao Lord before, felt that it was not the case. She was shocked and uncertain for a moment.
The waters of the Alliance of Demons were a little deep …
With a shocked and doubtful heart, Li Peiyun followed the Guardians for a while. The pressure became stronger and stronger. Her heart was beating like a drum, and her blood was surging crazily in her veins to resist the pressure.
When the pressure reached its peak, and the sound of breathing sounded like it was beside her ears, they finally walked through the long tunnel. The scene in front of her made Li Peiyun dumbfounded.
At the end of the tunnel was a small cave. There was no electricity or electric light here. The Left and Right Guardians switched off their flashlights and took out lighters to light the candles embedded in the wall grooves.
More than a dozen candles were lit, the flames swaying violently in some kind of breath.
A lump of brown meat hung in the middle of the cave, like a spider wrapping its prey in its silk web. Many flesh tissues extended from the surface of the meat, and these flesh tissues crawled all over the walls of the cave. The scene looked very much like the nest of some evil creature.
The sound of breathing came from the lump of brown meat hanging in the middle. It rose and fell rhythmically, and each rise and fall represented a breath.
Li Peiyun resisted the great discomfort and pressure and stared at the brown piece of meat, murmuring, "It, it is your emperor?"
Damn, is this an alien?
"It?" Hu Yan laughed. "It is the most precious asset of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Demons, but it is not the Emperor. The Emperor is the one who owns it. "
"What exactly is this thing?" Li Peiyun frowned.
"It is a treasure, a treasure that is hard to find in the world. Do you know why the Alliance of Ten Thousand Demons has so many new blood descendants? " Hu Yan walked into the cave and scraped some flesh tissues from the ground. The lump of flesh quickly withered and dried up in his palm, turning from brown to dark black.
Hu Yan dragged the piece of meat in his palm. "With such a large amount, three humans or animals can awaken and become the new blood of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Demons. We call it the Evolution Meat. Of course, not every human or animal can awaken it. When we select new members, we will do a screening, and only the qualified ones will be fed to them. "
"Out of ten animals that swallow it, five will explode and die, and the remaining five will awaken. Out of the five awakened blood descendants, four will not be qualified. They will be mentally or physiologically handicapped. We, the Alliance of Ten Thousand Demons, will give up on these unstable individuals. Therefore, the probability is one in ten, but the actual probability is even lower, because we still have to select qualified animals or humans. "
"Humans nowadays are too terrible. Their bodies are generally sub-healthy, and those with poor physical qualities will most likely explode after eating the Evolution Meat. It is the same for animals, and domestic pets are as bad as their owners. Wild animals are the best candidates for catalysis, but nowadays, even wild animals are rare. "
Hu Yan lamented about the difficulties of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Demons, but Li Peiyun turned a deaf ear to him. There was only one thought in his mind: Lunatic!
"Awakened ones can also obtain great benefits from eating it. It can optimize the Ancient Demon genes in your body, allowing your abilities to be better developed." Hu Yan passed the meat to Li Peiyun. "As long as you join the Alliance of Ten Thousand Demons, you can enjoy them to your heart's content. However, the effect is the best for the first time, but after a few times, there won't be any benefits."
"You guys … were created by it?" Li Peiyun finally understood why there were so many new blood descendants joining the Alliance of Ten Thousand Demons, and why there were seven top-notch experts like the Seven Great Protectors, but no one had heard of them before.
"The few of them were originally S rank, or at least at the threshold of S rank. The Evolution Meat will only allow them to advance a level." Hu Yan explained. "Unfortunately, at this level, the effects of the Evolution Meat won't be that great, because if they advance any further, they would be at the half-step Extreme Dao."
To be able to reach the peak of S rank, regardless of physical body or abilities, they had already been developed to the limit. The benefits of the Evolution Meat won't be that great.
Hu Yan had an excited expression. "Li Peiyun, this is the greatest secret of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Demons. Controlling the Evolution Meat means controlling this world. Will you join the Alliance of Ten Thousand Demons? "
When he asked the last question, his eyes were burning. He had the sincerity of a preacher, but also the craziness of a person who would sacrifice himself for the 'Lord' at any time.
A smart person isn't scary, but a smart person who has found his faith is scary.
Li Peiyun looked at him and suddenly understood. He understood why Hu Yan brought him here.
"So, he didn't bring me here to see the Emperor, but to force me to abdicate.
"He wants to force me to join the Alliance of Ten Thousand Demons. Since I know the biggest secret of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Demons, if I don't agree, it will be hard for me to leave safely.
"Feigning civility and agreeing. They aren't stupid, they will definitely use some method to control me.
"What do you want to do … Oh, I know." Li Peiyun stared at Hu Yan. "I have always known that you want to overturn the Blood Descendant World and change the structure of the Blood Descendant World so that the beasts can live a better life. However, I didn't expect you to be so crazy. No, it's you guys."
Hu Yan was startled and looked at her quietly.
Li Peiyun glanced at everyone. "I don't know what this thing is, but I know that if you guys abuse this Evolution Meat, the order of the Blood Descendant World will be overturned. More and more new Blood Descendants will appear, and they will break the balance between the Blood Descendants and ordinary people. The key is that these people suddenly gain superpowers, and their inflated desires will dominate them, which will then cause social unrest. "
The eyes of the Protectors turned cold. Hu Yan smiled with a hint of ridicule. "Li Peiyun, are you talking about justice with me? You are a person who colludes with evil cultists, and you want to talk about justice with me? "
"Hu Yan, if I was a coward who was afraid of death, would you let the Alliance of Ten Thousand Demons force me to confess?" Li Peiyun suddenly asked.
Hu Yan was silent.
"You see, our relationship is like this. We are allies, not good friends. Only when our interests are aligned can we be allies. When our interests are different, we can only go our separate ways. You and I are allies because we want to deal with the Lord of Dao. But why do you think that I must join the Alliance of Ten Thousand Demons? "
Protector Long chuckled. "If you don't want to join the Alliance of Ten Thousand Demons, then hand over the key."
Li Peiyun ignored her and stared at Hu Yan. "This is not justice. I have never cared about good and evil. But my grandfather is a racist, so I am one too. Most of the people in the Alliance of Ten Thousand Demons are deviants. Deviants do not conform to the moral values of humans. Suddenly, a large number of unscrupulous deviants appeared. What do you want? To fight for territory with humans? To fight for the throne at the top of the food chain? "
"That is not what I want to see. I just want to create a pure land for the deviants so that they can live in peace with humans." Hu Yan sighed. "I am working hard for that. I am trying my best to educate them."
"The premise of peaceful coexistence is fists, not talking. If we don't fight, who will talk to you? Moreover, can you represent the deviants behind you? "Li Peiyun sneered.
Protector Niu was furious. "What do you mean? Are you looking down on us deviants?"
All the Protectors looked at her coldly.
"I am not targeting anyone!" Li Peiyun looked at everyone. "What I mean is, everyone here is trash."
The light of the Sword of Qi suddenly lit up and lit up the dark cave. Li Peiyun turned around and waved his sword. The light of the sword swept across everyone like a ripple. At the same time, his mental energy split into seven swords of will. They were invisible and intangible. They attacked the foreheads of the Protectors.
Everyone was caught off guard. No one expected Li Peiyun to launch a sneak attack without any warning. The cave was narrow and there was not enough space for them to move. They were all hit in an instant.
Hu Yan, who was the closest to him, held his head and screamed in pain. "Li Peiyun, you traitor …"
The Left Protector next to Hu Yan blocked the sword of will. He was an awakened mental energy user, but he could not block the sword of qi. He was hit in the chest by the sword qi. Blood spurted out of his mouth and he slammed into the stone wall.
First, he used the sword of qi to launch a sneak attack. Then, he used the sword of will to attack. However, Li Peiyun knew that his sneak attack would only cause them minor injuries at most. At this time, it was time for a strategic retreat!
He backhanded his sword and the sharp sword qi slashed at the meat in the middle of the cave. He was trying to save the prey by attacking it while he rushed into the tunnel in the opposite direction.
F * ck your controlling the world. I will kill it with one sword.
The vast expanse of white Sword Qi illuminated the cave, and the candles were extinguished under the pressure of the Sword Qi.
"Damn it!"
"Bastard!"
"The Emperor is still in seclusion."
Everyone was furious and wanted to save it. However, none of them had special abilities in speed, so it was impossible to catch up with the sword light. If they attacked, they were afraid of damaging the Evolved Flesh. They came to welcome the Emperor out of seclusion, but they did not expect to force her out.
The breathing of the Evolved Flesh paused. Before the sword light slashed, a snow-white and slender wrist stretched out from the brown flesh and patted it gently. The sword of qi suddenly exploded and a gust of wind was set off in the cave.
After patting the sword of qi, the slender hand flicked and a bean-sized fireball flew out. It expanded rapidly in the process of wind and when it caught up with Li Peiyun, it was already a big fireball with a diameter of half a meter.
The hot wind behind him was extremely fast. Li Peiyun's hair stood up and he was alarmed. He turned around and slashed with his sword.
The sword of qi slashed the fireball, and with a bang, both of them exploded.
A scorching wind blew in the cave and the passageway, and the flowing light scattered in all directions. Li Peiyun's hair and eyebrows were burned in an instant, and the smell of burning organic matter filled the tunnel.
He groaned, and his blood boiled.
"You can't escape." A cold voice was heard, and the flesh separated automatically. A pair of beautiful long legs walked out from the brown flesh. She was wearing cropped pants and a white singlet. Her waist was slender, her legs long, and her breasts were full. Her hair was draped over her shoulders.
She was wearing a silver mask made of some kind of alloy. The face under the mask could not be seen, only a pair of deep, cold eyes could be seen.
"She is the Emperor?" Li Peiyun froze on the spot, not daring to move. He felt that he was being locked on, and if he made the slightest movement, he would be met with a destructive attack.
"Emperor, have you broken through the Extreme Dao?" the Guardian of the Right asked nervously and expectantly.
She asked the question that everyone was thinking about. The Guardians looked at the Emperor expectantly, and they could not help but hold their breath. Even Li Peiyun was too lazy to care.
The Thousand Beasts Alliance had always been looking forward to the birth of a new Extreme Dao. If the Emperor became the new Extreme Dao, she would not even need to negotiate with Bosch. She could just split the land and make herself the ruler of the Bloodline Realm.
The big boss of the Bosch Group was like a little brother in front of the Emperor, she could do whatever she wanted.
But the Emperor's answer disappointed everyone. She shook her head and said calmly: "I failed."
Hu Yan closed his eyes and sighed: "The difficulty of the Extreme Dao is as difficult as reaching the sky."
After sighing, he looked at Li Peiyun: "Emperor, how should we deal with him?"
Two beams of light shone on Li Peiyun.
The woman thought for a bit, then asked: "If we kill him, will we be able to obtain the key to the Pantheon Palace?"
Hu Yan smiled bitterly: "With that brat's temper, it will be difficult"
The woman nodded, then walked in front of Li Peiyun. "Tell me, why are you not willing to be my subordinate?"
She was very close, less than a meter away from him. She was not afraid of a sneak attack from Li Peiyun.
With the light from the torchlight, he carefully looked at the woman in front of him. This was probably the most majestic and perfect woman he had ever seen … For some reason, this thought appeared in Li Peiyun's mind.
He had never even seen the woman's face before.
He had seen the unparalleled Li family's War Soul, the seductive Aokiki Kurumi, and all kinds of beautiful women.
But the moment he saw the woman at such a close distance, he had this absurd thought.
"If I'm not willing, then I'm not willing" Li Peiyun said.
The woman stared at him silently, her cold eyes seemed to be able to see through him. After a long time, she said: "Pure heart and strong will, you are indeed the best candidate to practice the Three Talents Sword Art."
"If that's the case, then let's form an alliance" The woman said: "This is your only choice, form an alliance with the Thousand Beasts Alliance and share the key to the Pantheon Palace. The time limit is the opening of the Pantheon Palace. "
Li Peiyun secretly heaved a sigh of relief. The key to the Pantheon Palace had saved his life once again.
He suddenly felt some sympathy for Li Xianyu, that guy's life had been saved by the Pantheon Palace time and time again. The Pantheon Palace was his nightmare, but also his protective talisman.
"Aren't you afraid that I will go back on my words?" Li Peiyun probed.
"Unless you want to die" The woman's answer was concise and comprehensive.
"…" After thinking for a while, Li Peiyun chose to accept the suggestion. Although he and the Thousand Beasts Alliance had different opinions, under the current situation, they could only choose to cooperate.
"Before the Pantheon Palace opens, you can't leave this place" The woman said.
"I understand" Li Peiyun said: "However, before that, you have to solve some problems first."
"Speak."
Li Peiyun looked at the Left Protector and shrugged: "Don't thank me, I have helped you find your clue."
The Left Protector: "!!!"
At this moment, the entire mountain shook as if there was an earthquake.
