Chapter 241 - The Hunting Ground, The Suppression From The Human Race’s Prodigies (1/2)
...
'The higher the advancement in my martial cultivation, the more energy I need. Moreover, the beast calamity is imminent, and there's not much time left. It's impossible for me to be like before, leisurely reading books in the library and then relying on those cultivation techniques to slowly cultivate to increase my strength.
'I must advance in the shortest time possible.'
After his gaze steeled for a moment, Ye Xiao took a deep breath and jumped down the Heavenly Devil Cliff.
Just as he jumped down the Heavenly Devil Cliff, Ye Xiao clearly felt that there was a force that was constantly rushing upwards.
That force was not trying to lift him up, but because there were too many of them below. It was too dense and had already exceeded the limits of what could be endured below.
That was why it would continuously charge up, releasing its own evil energy, baleful energy, and filthy energy.
Ye Xiao did not use the Divine Intent technique. Instead, he allowed himself to slowly descend.
Although his strength was already very strong, he should still be more or less cautious.
After all, he was still not an invincible existence.
He had never come to the Heavenly Devil Cliff before, so he did not know what the situation below the Heavenly Devil Cliff was like.
He slowly descended like this. If there were any abnormalities, he would be able to escape in time.
When he began to descend into the black fog, his vision was already obstructed.
Even though he was already a lesser King realm martial artist and had cultivated an eye technique, his vision was still not that good in that place. Furthermore, as his body continued to descend. Under the situation where the murderous aura below was getting more and more intense, his vision would be further obstructed.
No wonder it was said that not many people dared to come to that place.
He was already at the lesser King realm. Even if he came here, his senses would be suppressed to a certain extent, not to mention those ordinary divine sects.
When they came here, they would most likely be blind. They would not even be able to see a single thing.
In the darkness, Ye Xiao seemed to feel that there were countless eyes staring at him.
However, Ye Xiao was not flustered because he still had one more move, the spiritual cultivation technique, Big Dipper's Grand Mystery.
Although there was a very dense baleful aura inside, the baleful aura could only shield the senses on the body, but it could not shield spiritual energy.
The Big Dipper's Grand Mystery revolved and rapidly spread out in the surroundings at a frequency of several hundred times per second.
That way, the entire Heavenly Devil Cliff seemed to instantly turn into broad daylight in Ye Xiao's mind.
He could see everything clearly.
It was also at that moment that he could clearly see what exactly those things that were staring at him were.
They were densely packed with star beasts. Of course, other than the star beasts, there were also some beastmen.
The vast majority of them were hiding inside, wanting to avoid the pursuit of the humans. Once the beast calamity descended, they would immediately charge up the Heavenly Devil Cliff and crazily attack the humans.
Ye Xiao even saw a few humans among them.
However, those few humans were clearly no longer ordinary humans.
They were very likely to have eaten the star beast's star core. In addition to the feeling of cultivating some evil techniques, they looked neither human nor ghost.
However, the vast majority of their strength was above Houtian fifth grade, around Houtian seventh or eighth grade.
Very few would have the strength of Houtian ninth grade.
The grandmasters did not see it.
The two sides of the cliff were not flat, and there were many traces left behind by the attacks.
Perhaps it was left behind by the internal strife between those star beasts, or it could also be left behind by the battle between those human martial arts experts and star beast in ancient times.
Many traces looked extremely terrifying.
Speaking of which, although that Heavenly Devil Cliff had experienced the baptism of a very long time, Ye Xiao had a feeling.
It was not formed naturally but was slashed into that state by another person's sword.
That Heavenly Devil Cliff was bottomless. It was at least tens of thousands of feet deep. If that was earth, it would probably be able to pierce through the magma layer.
So deep!
As for the other party to have such strength, he definitely surpassed the current him.
After thinking about it carefully, it made sense.
The other party was an ancient prodigy, and the ancient prodigies themselves were much stronger than the current era's prodigies.
There had been many prodigies that shocked the entire river of history!
It was not uncommon for there to be a few existences that were stronger than his current strength.
Moreover, even now, there were still many existences stronger than him.
The King realm martial artists on the space battlefield, the legendary Emperor realm martial artist, the divine beasts among the star beasts, and the super divine beasts were all existences that were above him.
Although Ye Xiao's descent was very slow, no matter how slow he was, he would not be slower than a person falling from a high altitude.
Therefore, he quickly descended to a distance of fewer than 10,000 feet.
At that distance, one could already see some Xiantian first-grade grandmaster-level star beasts.
Ye Xiao calculated for a moment. It seemed that the further down he went, the better it was for the star beasts to cultivate.
That was because the star beasts that died here were the martial arts experts among the star beasts. After they died, the exuberant blood essence would definitely be the densest at the bottom. Only then would it slowly expand outward until it charged out of the Heavenly Devil Cliff.
Needless to say, from the looks of it, the Heavenly Devil Cliff was also a very good place to cultivate.
There was too much blood essence there.
It was just that that place was not very suitable for the human race because there was a large amount of resentment and baleful energy...
