Chapter 396: Cause And Effects
A gray cloud floated up from the peak of a mountain with three shadows standing inside. It was drifting towards the north.
“Rumble!” After the three left, a great change happened at the Feng cemetery. The energy of death reversed back into the mountain and disappeared completely.
The nearby vicinity was a land of death but now, some signs of life began again.
Only the top of the mountain was still full of miasma and flowing blood on top of screeching crows.
Of course, Feiyun didn’t know all of these changes. They were already a thousand miles away.
The first clan master became young again with his transcending aura and kind expression like a loving senior. He stood above the clouds as his purple robe fluttered in the wind. An auspicious light gathered above his head.
A ray formed beneath the cloud as it soared across the sky. Feng Feiyun didn’t speak a word and showed an emotionless appearance. After all, the guy’s cultivation was too high. He couldn’t escape even if he wanted to.
“Yama’s Corpse was taken from a Heaven’s Emergence tomb. It was only a half skeleton when it was excavated with a spine, left hand, right thigh, three ribs, a heart, and a skull. Eight in total.” The clan master said.
Feiyun didn’t know why the guy was speaking about this matter. It was clearly a secret to the upper echelon of this cultivation world. Ordinary people weren’t privy to this information.
Feiyun didn’t interrupt and let him continued.
Sure enough, he went on: “Yama’s body contained a monstrous power, a thousand times stronger than a Giant. Just one drop of decay blood alone could slay one of them. This power was contained in all eight parts. Those who could obtain one of them would be able to gain a peerless strength.”
Feiyun finally asked: “That skeleton hanging on the Daomization Tree is Yama?”
“Yes.” The old man nodded.
“Why is there only a spine and a right thigh left?”
The old man answered: “Let me tell you an old story. Initially, Yama’s corpse was sealed by the four great kings at the Violetsea Cave. However, around 1,500 years ago, several big shots from a couple of great powers wanted to steal it from the cave before dividing it with each other. The intruders all died in the cave; they didn’t even get to see Yama’s corpse before being eliminated by the corpse controllers. Finally, this group came up with a method to take the corpse without letting anyone know it was them.”
“What method?” Feiyun asked.
“Using the Yang Soul Holy Embryo’s blood to open a Yang Soul Trigram to summon a Divine Yang Behemoth. This god wasn’t a creature from this world so it wasn’t afraid of Yama’s evil energy. Moreover, it was 374 meters tall with immense power. Giants couldn’t stop it at all.” The old man said.
A Divine Yang Behemoth!
Feiyun thought about the giant slumbering beneath the river of blood. The image of one that could wear the sky with a terrifying shout, causing birds to flee…
The old man saw Feiyun’s expression and smiled: “That’s’ right. The skeleton below that river is the Divine Yang Behemoth!
“It might not belong in this world but it still had a body made out of flesh and blood. This body simply couldn’t handle the evil energy from yama. Its body melted into that river of blood while its bones slumbered beneath. Only by using the blood of the Yang Soul Holy Embryo would one be able to wake it up for the second time.”
This behemoth could slay a Giant with one punch. It ferociously rushed into the cave and broke the four kings’ seal before taking Yama’s remains away.
Such an existence, if woken up, would be an incalculable destructive force.
Feiyun was startled: “The Yang Soul Holy Embryo is essential in waking it up?”
The old man nodded: “Have to borrow the Yang Soul Trigram from the Ji Clan too.”
The Yang Soul Holy Embryo was a type of Abnormality twins, not just Ji Xinnu and Ji Xiaonu. No wonder why the Ji Clan and the Yang World wanted to capture them again. It turned out their blood could activate the trigram to wake up this behemoth.
Anyone who could wake it up would gain an invincible general that could sweep through the world.
Feiyun said: “Then which powers were involved in stealing Yama from the cave?”
The old man didn’t hold anything back: “Yang World’s Monarch, Yin World’s Mother, Ji Clan, and the First Hall of the Senluo Temple.”
Feiyun took a deep breath. These were all super-level sects! The leaders of the Yang and Yin Worlds on top of the First Hall.
Only the First Hall had yet to show itself among the ten. It seemed particularly mysterious.
