904 Appear before me! Pikachu! (1/2)
At the beast domain, one of Nine Great Despairs, Scarlet Forest.
When mankind strives to become the strongest esper, the berserk beasts never give up. Each one of them struggled to reach the peak too. These past few days, dozens of honorable rank beasts and even half-emperor rank beasts arrived in Scarlet Forest for the power of Scarlet Forest.
According to a legend, there is a legacy left by a certain heavenly emperor rank beast in Scarlet Forest that is enough to drive each of them mad.
Of course, there were some who believed it and some who didn't.
”What's with this inheritance from a heavenly emperor rank beast? In the history of berserk beasts, since when did we have a heavenly emperor rank beast? If a heavenly emperor rank beast did exist, wouldn't humanity have been eliminated a long time ago?” A tiger humanoid disdainfully said.
”Hmmphh.” Another beast with a pair of horns retorted, ”You know nothing. According to the legend, Scarlet Forest is the residence of Heavenly Emperor Mingguang. In the deepest part of Scarlet Forest, there is a mass grave. Heavenly Emperor Mingguang lived nearby and possessed the so-called Nine Lamps that suppressed the luck of us berserk beasts.”
”Bullshit.” The tiger humanoid expressed his disdain, ”Heavenly emperor? Nine Lamps? You think this is a legend? It's none other than a rumour! Tell me then, since we have a Heavenly Emperor, why didn't he take action? We beasts have always been in a war with mankind. Why not kill all the humans over on the other side?”
”Uh...”
The one with horns was obviously speechless, and his face turned red. He couldn't help but refute, ”Since you don't believe me, why are you here then?”
”Because of the treasure.” The humanoid tiger continued in a greedy tone, ”We have slaughtered our way here, and no fewer than a hundred honorable rank beasts died. This Scarlet Forest definitely has treasures.”
”Enough!” A half-emperor rank beast glanced over, and no one dared to speak anymore.
”I have attempted to breakthrough into the emperor rank, but never have I ever stepped into this rank. Since when is heavenly emperor rank that easy to reach? Our heavenly emperor rank and mankind's strongest esper is merely a legend. At least, I have never seen it before with my own eyes.” That half-emperor rank beast said, and no one dared to add any words.
”It's almost the end of Scarlet Forest now.” That half-emperor beast said in a fierce tone, ”I also wish to see what kind of secrets are hidden in this Scarlet Forest?”
”Yeah!”
All beasts replied in unison.
Walking through Scarlet Forest, dozens of powerful beasts finally reached the deepest part. However, when they stepped into that region, all the beasts were shocked. Because after passing through the terrifying Scarlet Forest, a mass grave was in their sight where countless heads were placed.
Suddenly all the beasts felt the chill in their heart.
”There really is a mass grave!”
”Could the legend be real?”
”In other words... the inheritance of Heavenly Emperor Mingguang?”
All the beasts' eyes were red. Even that half-emperor rank beast earlier was having short breaths, ”Could the so-called inheritance of a heavenly emperor rank beast be true?”
Crack~
Crack~
Everyone literally rushed all over the place and suddenly halted.
”Stop!” That half-emperor rank beast shouted out loudly.
Everyone was shocked and stopped immediately, ”Senior, why?”
”That is...”
That half-emperor rank beast swallowed his saliva for a bit as he pointed at those heads in disbelief. One could see the horrified look in his eyes, ”Do you all see those heads?”
”What's with those heads...”
When the beasts looked over there, they suddenly had goosebumps all over their body.
”This is...”
”This is also...”
”Humans, Tian family!”
”How could they be here? A few days ago, I thought I heard the Tian family had disappeared? Something about the Su family or Federation destroying them, why would they be here?”
Those beasts were horrified.
They felt that they had missed something.
”This is...”
Suddenly one beast pointed at the head the half-emperor rank beast was looking at and finally understood why he was shocked. This is because that face was a legend, the strongest man closest to becoming the strongest esper, the Tian family's old ancestor! In an instant, everyone felt a chill in their heart.
He, why did he die here?
In the end, what happened?
”Inheritance!”
”Someone must have obtained the inheritance of Heavenly Emperor Mingguang before being able to kill the Tian family's old ancestor!”
”So, in other words, there is really an inheritance here?”
The moment they thought of this, each beast blushed. Even the half-emperor rank beast's face was looking reddish as he looked over there. All the beasts slowly approached the mass grave.
There...
Would there really be an inheritance from Heavenly Emperor Mingguang?
”Hehe, you all won't obtain any inheritance.”
A voice rang, causing the half-emperor rank beast to furrow his eyebrows. He coldly snorted, ”How do you know?”
As soon as that voice fell, he suddenly felt something was wrong. That voice wasn't from those around him. All the beasts were afraid. Did someone come here first?
”Who are you? Stop pretending to be mysterious! Show yourself now!”
”How do you know that I can't get the inheritance? Because you have already taken it away?”
That half-emperor rank beast looked around sinisterly, ”Or could it be that you followed us and then slipped in? There has never been anyone who stepped inside Scarlet Forest. Are you from the Shadow Clan?”
”No.”
A voice casually floated in the air.
That voice came from far to near, and a figure leisurely appeared instantly and landed in front of everyone indifferently, ”Because... I am still alive.”
Swish!
