Chapter 1544: Land of Lightning Penalty (1/2)
As they made their way to the tribe, Huang Xiaolong asked Feng Yaozhong, “Brother Yaozhong, have you seen other outsiders whose appearances have resembled us in the past?”
Feng Yaozhong nodded his head, “Yes, I did. Every few years, outsiders will appear and in my several hundreds of thousands of years of existence, I have met a few of them.”
“What happened to them?”
All these outsiders he was referring to had to be experts from the Divine Realm who were sucked into this space by the Ghost River!
As for their mysterious disappearance, it definitely had something to do with the space they were in!
“What happened to them?” Feng Yaozhong thought for a second before replying, “They died.”
Dead!
His words echoed like thunderclaps in the ears of Huang Xiaolong and company.
It was a no brainer… They definitely died from old age due to the devouring force sucking up their vitality.
Thinking up to this point, Huang Xiaolong and the rest felt as though their heart skipped a beat.
“The stronger ones were able to live for several tens of years in this space. As for the weaker ones, they died in about a year…” Feng Yaozhong shook his head and sighed.
“Could it be that there is no exit to this space?” Huang Xiaolong felt a sense of panic rising in his heart.
“Leave?” Feng Yaozhong started to laugh. “If there really was a way to leave, you wouldn’t be able to see me here. Since time immemorial, my ancestors have been trapped here and all of us desire nothing but to leave this place.”
Hearing what the Barbarian said, all of them felt a crushing weight pressing down on their heart.
Is there really no way to leave this space?!
Despite having doubts about being unable to leave, they couldn’t help but think of the Barbarian Ancestors. They had been trapped here for god-knew how long! What if it was true?! What if there was really no way out?!
“There has been a tradition passed down from the forefathers and it states that the person who brings us out of this space will be crowned the King of Barbarians! As long as anyone is able to bring us out, we will follow his order down to the letter!”
A stunned silence fell over Huang Xiaolong’s party.
The King of Barbarians?!
Despite there being an absence of godforce in Feng Yaozhong’s body, Huang Xiaolong could tell that he was a foe to be reckoned with. The power he had in his fleshy body made him comparable to ordinary God King Realm experts. Not just mere low-level God King Realm experts, but he was comparable to a high-level God King!
A single Feng Yaozhong had such power… Huang Xiaolong could only imagine the power of the Barbarians as a whole.
The moment anyone obtained the title of the King of Barbarians, they would be able to command an extraordinarily strong force.
“Who is the current leader of the Barbarians right now?” Jiang Hong asked.
“We are split up into different tribes and most of our tribes consist of several tens of thousands of barbarians. As for the five biggest tribes, they have at the very least, thirty to forty million members. Every single tribe has its own Head Chieftains but the Head Chieftains of the five biggest tribes can be said to be the leader of all the Barbarians.” Feng Yaozhong continued, “I’m from one of the biggest tribes and we are called the Barbaric Wind Tribe.”
“Barbaric Wind Tribe.” Huang Xiaolong repeated the name in his head several times.
“As for the other four tribes, they are called the Barbaric Lightning Tribe, Barbaric Flame Tribe, Barbaric Rain Tribe, and the Barbaric Light Tribe.”
When Huang Xiaolong heard the names, he felt that they weren’t too bad. Well, that was until the names ‘Barbaric Rain Tribe’ and ‘Barbaric Brilliance Tribe’ came out of Feng Yaozhong’s mouth. He couldn’t help but crack a smile.
He had to say, the Barbarians had a unique way of naming their tribes.
Despite laughing at their names, Huang Xiaolong didn’t forget to ask Feng Yaozhong about the strength of the tribes.
Since he didn’t plan on hiding anything, Feng Yaozhong revealed everything they wanted to know. “In your terms, the chiefs of the five biggest tribes are experts in the Emperor Realm.”
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.
Five Emperors!
