Most of the walking beasts in the Demon Realm were gathered in the area around the Glorious Mountain Range. Half of the territory was occupied by the Qilin Clan, the leader of the beasts. As for the other walking beasts such as the Tiger Clan, Lion Clan, and Iron Eating Clan, they had all moved to other realms. Only the weaker races were left behind.
As for Yi Tian, he had stayed in the Glorious Mountain Range in the Glorious Mountain Range for a while. Ever since he had escaped from the ancient battlefield, he had come here to scout for information. After all, it was an urgent matter to return the bones of the roar spirit, so it was better to deal with these extra matters first.
Furthermore, while he was unable to enter the territory of the Lion Clan, he could still scout for information before making any plans. It was said that the Qilin Clan would invite the other walking beast clans to gather here every thousand years. The purpose of this gathering was to divide the Sweet Marrow Jade Nectar that fell from the Sky Bearing Continent. Such a secret was naturally something that only the higher ups of the Demon Race would know.
As for Yi Tian, he had only heard a few Class 8 demonic beasts discussing this matter when he was passing by the Nightmare Beast Clan. He turned around and asked Xiong Erbao, who also had some understanding of this matter. Then, he slowly explained the ins and outs of this matter.
Every thousand years, the walking beast clans led by the Qilin Clan would hold a sacrificial ceremony to beg for the Celestial Realm seniors to send Sweet Marrow Jade Nectar. Every time, there would only be three to four bottles. However, there were at least a hundred different walking beast clans in the Demon Realm. With so many monks and not enough gruel, it was naturally impossible to divide it properly.
If the larger clans were to monopolize the resources, it would definitely lead to a situation where only one clan would dominate. Thus, the demonic beasts banded together and requested for the Sweet Marrow Jade Nectar to be divided according to proportion, thus eliminating the possibility of a single clan dominating. Otherwise, these weak demonic beasts would cease to exist after a few years.
The stronger clans would usually be able to get seventy to eighty percent of the Sweet Marrow Jade Nectar, leaving the rest for the remaining clans. If the clan did not have a Class 9 demonic beast, then they would be automatically excluded. Normally, the clans with a Class 9 Demon Venerable would divide the twenty-four drops of Sweet Marrow Jade Nectar, and the remaining drops would be divided into three portions. This way, the remaining 18 clans would be able to share the Sweet Marrow Jade Nectar.
As for those who didn't have a Class 8 Demonic Beast in their clan, they basically didn't even have the qualifications to participate.
The Sweet Marrow Dew that fell from the sky pushed away the birds, snakes, aquatic creatures, and insects. Therefore, there was no trace of them here.
After thinking about it, he decided to bring Xiong Erbao to Yaojun City to search for traces of the Lion Tribe. That would save him a lot of trouble.
As for Xiong Erbao, he could find the Iron-Eating Beasts and use them to return to his homeland. It would be better than going there himself.
Along the way, he explained his plan to Xiong Erbao, who nodded repeatedly. After returning to the Demon Realm, his ultimate goal was still to visit the Iron-Eating Beasts. It would be best if he could meet his clansmen here.
The two of them walked around Yaojun City and encountered many demon cultivators. However, they didn't see any Iron-Eating Beast cultivators. After asking in detail, he learned that the demon cultivators of the Tiger Clan and Lion Clan would not come here at all. These demon cultivators of the large clans all thought highly of themselves and would directly go to the sacrificial ceremony.
Xiong Erbao was eager to return home. After asking about the Iron-Eating Beasts' movements, he bid farewell to Yi Tian and went to look for his clansmen.
After settling Xiong Erbao's matter, Yi Tian heaved a sigh of relief. Now, he only needed to return the Roaring Spirit's corpse to the Lion Clan cultivator to achieve his goal.
Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly saw a familiar figure floating in the distance. He recalled that it should be the fox lady Jiang Liuli and her group. He didn't expect that they would also participate in the Sky Bearing Sacrificial Ceremony.
However, seeing that she was in a hurry, something must have happened. Yi Tian quickly followed her without hesitation. He retracted the spiritual pressure on his body and disappeared without attracting any attention from the demon cultivators on the street.
After ten breaths, he followed the path that they took and followed them to a secluded courtyard. After scanning with his spiritual sense, he found that there were layers of restrictions placed outside the door. If there were any intruders, they would immediately activate the restrictions to alert the people inside.
However, these restrictions were completely useless against him. After stealthily flashing past, Yi Tian silently broke through the restrictions and entered.
After arriving behind the door, Yi Tian looked around and found that this was a large courtyard. At this moment, there was a group of fox ladies sitting in the main hall with Jiang Liuli sitting to the left. In the middle was a fox lady who looked to be in her forties and was dressed like a noblewoman. It seemed like she was the owner of this place. The fox ladies present were all only at the seventh grade, and Jiang Liuli was at the peak of the seventh grade. However, this noblewoman was at the middle of the eighth grade and should have the strength to participate in the second stage of the competition for the Sweet Marrow Jade Dew.
Jiang Liuli then said, "Aunt Lian, the Sky Bearing Sacrificial Ceremony is about to begin. Why did you summon me back so urgently? Could it be that the rules of the second stage have changed?"
The upper-class woman called Aunt Lian sighed and said, "Liuli, I won't hide it from you. This time, several elders of the clan are discussing a marriage alliance with the Lion Clan to obtain a complete drop of Sweet Jade Essence. That's why they called you back in such a hurry."
Jiang Liuli's face turned pale as she heard that. She immediately understood the meaning behind those words and said with a sullen face, "What is the clan's intention? Don't tell me they don't care about my master's feelings? "
"Don't use your master to pressure me." Aunt Lian coldly said, "You went to the Nine Immortal Mountain to cultivate for a thousand years, but your cultivation has yet to reach the eighth grade. Now that the clan urgently needs a drop of Sweet Marrow Jade Dew to raise the strength of the younger generation, can't you give up something for the clan? You have to know that in order to let you enter the Nine Immortal Mountain, my fox clan spent a lot of effort. Your achievements are not your own, but the efforts of my entire clan. "
Hearing that, Jiang Liuli was at a loss for words. Thinking about it, she was naturally unable to refute. This time, even the fox girl guards that she usually brought with her all spoke out to persuade her, clearly standing on the clan leader's side.
Jiang Liuli instantly fell into a disadvantageous position, with not a single person standing up for her. At this moment, Aunt Lian opened her mouth and said, "Speaking of which, this marriage alliance with the Lion Clan did not mistreat you. The other party is the grandson of Ancestor Hou Tian. As long as you marry him, Ancestor Hou Tian promised to bestow a drop of Sweet Marrow Jade Dew to our clan. "
Hearing the name of Ancestor Hou Tian, Yi Tian who was standing outside the house had an ugly expression on his face. Back then, it was all because of him that he had to flee to the other world. This time, he had to settle the old and new scores together.
