Chapter 193 – Rumor! (2/2)

Huang Qing and Qing Hai’s expressions changed when they heard this, and then Huang Qing said, “How could that be possible? King Rank Darkbeasts are extremely proud. So, besides Spirit Rank Darkbeasts, it’s impossible for them to lower their heads before any Darkbeast at the same rank!”

Qing Hai spoke in agreement. “Brother Huang is right. Even if this King Rank Darkbeast is a royal of the Darkbeast Empire, it’s still very unlikely for it to be able to make all the other Darkbeasts obey its command!”

The woman called Hai Xue glanced indifferently at them, and then she said, “How could it not be possible. Our human race has an extraordinarily monstrous genius like Yuan Tong, so why can’t such a genius appear in the Darkbeast Empire? Just think about it, if Yuan Tong is willing to summon all the partic.i.p.ating profounders on Ascension Mountain Range, then how many would follow his lead?”

“But King Rank Darkbeasts are extremely proud fellows….” Huang Qing argued.

Beneath the veil of night, Xue Hai revealed a solemn expression and said, “It’s exactly for that reason that this is even more terrifying. Exactly how terrifying is that extraordinary monstrous genius amongst Darkbeasts that it would be able to make these extremely proud King Rank Darkbeasts willing to listen to its command?”

All of them fell silent, and the night seemed to be even quieter.

After a short while, Xue Hai continued. “I heard that the Royal Clans of the Darkbeast Empire, the Gold Behemoth Clan, the Steel Ape Clan, the Heaven Devouring Python Clan, and the Skyhowl Demon Wolf Clan that possess the legendary blood of a Divine Beast have all dispatched the elites of their clans to Ascension Mountain Range. Perhaps both of you haven’t heard of these four clans, but you just have to know that these clans aren’t inferior to the six great powers in terms of strength!”

“They’re not inferior to the six great powers!?” When they heard this, the expressions of both Qing Hai and Huang Qing had changed, and their faces gradually became solemn.

What did that mean? Simply speaking, besides the genius disciples of the six great powers, the other independent cultivators like the three of them would probably die if they encountered the members of these clans!

“Hai Xue, are those four clans really that terrifying?” Huang Qing asked in a low voice.

Hai Xue nodded and said, “In the past, I had the fortune to see a Steel Ape while gaining experience and tempering in the Grand Myriad Mountains. Its body was extremely enormous like a small mountain, and that wasn’t the most terrifying aspect of it. The most terrifying aspect was its strength. I watched with my own two eyes as that Steel Ape who hadn’t attained the King Rank had utilized its enormous palms to smash a mountain that was over 30m tall and around 15m wide into powder. Even some high leveled Profound Rank techniques don’t possess such might, yet that Steel Ape had merely launched a casual attack and wasn’t even at the King Rank….”

Huang Qing said in a low voice, “It would be alright if these Darkbeasts were being commanded by these four clans, but if they aren’t….”

Huang Qing didn’t continue after he spoke up to here. However, the expressions of both Hai Xue and Qing Hai had turned solemn. If a Darkbeast that was even more formidable than the four Darkbeast clans had appeared, then how terrifying would it be to actually be able to make the elites of the four clans obey its command?

A little bit above on the tree, Yang Ye had a solemn expression as well. Since the beginning, he’d always had disregarded or underestimated the Darkbeasts of the Grand Myriad Mountain because he had the little fellow by his side! However, when he heard the woman called Hai Xue, he felt that this matter was probably not simple. Even though the little fellow was extremely formidable, it wasn’t invincible!

Fortunately, besides the violet mink, he had another seven big fellows with him. So, when he was added in as well, then their group should probably have no need to fear that monstrous genius amongst the Darkbeasts.

Actually, even if he didn’t have the little fellow and the seven big fellows, Yang Ye wasn’t afraid at all. Because he’d always yearned to fight with all his might! He hadn’t utilized his full strength in that battle with Wenren Yue, and this caused him to feel slightly disgruntled in his heart. But it was fine because he would fight that monstrous genius amongst the Darkbeasts or the monstrous geniuses of the Origin School in the end.

Because Yang Ye’s target was the 1st in the Ascension Rankings. Since it was the 1st, then he was bound to trample on countless geniuses on his way up. He had no other choice in the matter because it was related to his mother!

Yang Ye took a deep breath. Suddenly, he said to himself, s.h.i.+t!

Sure enough, right at the moment that he took a deep breath, the three people beneath him had swiftly flashed off the tree, and then three powerful blasts of energy shot swiftly towards him.

Yang Ye had no other choice. He shook his head as he drew his sword and slashed.
