Chapter 1953: Chapter 1951: Ten Thousand Demon Burial Pit
Ye Tianchen, accompanied by the Flying Little Leopard, the young from the Black Sky Cat Clan, the burly man from the Divine Power Pangolin Clan, and the maiden from the Immortal Deer Descendant Clan, charged into this Barbaric Forbidden Land together!
However, upon entering the Forbidden Land, the scene they encountered was utterly bizarre, contrary to the ominous and unfathomable rumors that surround this Barbaric Forbidden Land. What exactly is going on?
Let’s not forget that within this Barbaric Forbidden Land, many powerful demon beasts reside, capable of flying and escaping, omnipotent, yet confined to this area’s limits. Otherwise, they might have dominated the three Ancient Martial Worlds by now. However, when Ye Tianchen and his companions went in, not a single bird or ant was seen. Everywhere was unusually calm, cloaked in a mysterious aura. Furthermore, these young ones from the four demon beast clans were astonished, for following Ye Tianchen into the forbidden land was a significant risk, almost with a mindset of certain death!
It’s important to know that the five demon beast clans have been enslaved by a formidable being within the Barbaric Forbidden Land for nearly ten thousand years. Though there’s a deep-seated desire to rebel, they dare not blatantly enter this forbidden territory publicly. The danger of instant shock-kill looms, or even a threat of extermination. Yet, having ventured in, flying miles ahead, they felt no effect of enslavement curses taking hold. Why is it so?
While Ye Tianchen and the group of five were puzzled by the oddly unsettling atmosphere within the Barbaric Forbidden Land, suddenly a furious aura surged not far ahead, invigoratingly spreading across hundreds of miles. Luckily, this forbidden area is vast, thrice as large as any Ancient Martial World, possibly even bigger. Otherwise, it might have alerted some monstrous beings.
With doubts and a desire to avoid reckless charging, Ye Tianchen soared towards the ominous aura. The burly man from the Divine Power Pangolin Clan and the maiden from the Immortal Deer Descendant Clan followed suit. The young from the Flying Little Leopard and Black Sky Cat Clan hesitated but, realizing they had come together, decided to unite and push forward after exchanging glances.
However, when the Flying Little Leopard and the Black Sky Cat Clan’s young finally arrived at the ominous aura location, they found Ye Tianchen standing defiantly ahead, followed by the burly man from the Divine Power Pangolin Clan and the maiden from the Immortal Deer Descendant Clan, all frozen mid-air. What could this mean?
Instinctively!
The Flying Little Leopard and the young from the Black Sky Cat Clan also glanced below at the looming ominous aura and were momentarily stunned, terror flashing in their eyes.
"I didn’t expect such a powerful aura to reveal this scene—it’s incredibly shocking!" murmured Ye Tianchen, his gaze locked onto the giant pit below in amazement.
"Seeing is believing, who would have thought?" questioned the burly man from the Divine Power Pangolin Clan, his tone incredulous.
"It’s horrifying, devastating. Why is this? What happened here?" the maiden from the Immortal Deer Descendant Clan frowned and queried.
"What... What is happening here?" stammered the young from the Black Sky Cat Clan.
"Such a vast aura... were they all innocently massacred?" the Flying Little Leopard asked in disbelief.
In the ominous aura surge they witnessed was a massive pit, where everywhere beneath lay blood and mangled bodies, thousands of demon beast corpses brutally slain, hardly any left intact. These demon beasts, mostly of low cultivation, perished here, emitting fierce resentment from their remains, voicing their rage, their discontent, and their refusal to rest in peace. Yet, they are already dead, voiceless. Only their unwavering resentment provides their final rebellion!
The scene was profoundly shocking, leaving Ye Tianchen and his companions astounded, incredibly surprised. The massive pit and the blood bath of demon beasts’ own making immersed them. The accumulated resentment forged this sky-high spectacle.
"I’ll go down and take a look; you wait up here!" instructed Ye Tianchen to the four demon beasts behind him.
Whoosh!
Ye Tianchen’s swift movements took him to the pit’s depths, approaching a beast’s corpse. Frowning after observing, he proceeded to another, still frowning, inspecting several corpses, appearing gravely solemn before flashing back to the Flying Little Leopard and the others.
"How is it?" asked the Flying Little Leopard, anxious.
"They’re all dead!" Ye Tianchen shook his head conclusively.
"Is there anything strange here?" asked the burly man from the Divine Power Pangolin Clan.
"Many things. First, most of these demon beasts have low cultivation; second, they come from different species; third, it’s as if they’ve been gathered together and punched to death!" Ye Tianchen frowned as he recalled the scene he had just witnessed.
"This..."
"This..."
They were stunned. Upon hearing Ye Tianchen’s words, the Flying Little Leopard, the young boy from the Black Sky Cat Clan, the burly man from the Divine Power Pangolin Clan, and the young girl from the Immortal Deer Descendant Clan were all taken aback and couldn’t utter a single word. They were all outstanding future generations of their respective races, with not weak cultivation and high spiritual wisdom. Ye Tianchen’s words left them full of questions!
First of all, why were most of these demon beasts that were slaughtered of low cultivation? Secondly, these demon beasts came from different species; why gathered together? What drew them together, or did someone capture them and confine them to one place? Lastly, the fact that all these tens of thousands of demon beasts were punched to death at once, how powerful must that be? To kill tens of thousands of demon beasts with a single punch, all at once, such power... even Ye Tianchen could not achieve something like this!
"The Ten Thousand Demon Burial Pit!" Ye Tianchen said with a frown.
"Tens of thousands of demon beasts, with low cultivation, yet they all died tragically here, their blood soaking in a massive pit, soaking their own corpses. It’s simply too tragic!" The Flying Little Leopard shook his head as he spoke.
"Why would they gather together? It’s understandable if it’s the same species, but different species gathering together is inherently illogical!" The young boy from the Black Sky Cat Clan asked in confusion.
"In my opinion, they must have been brought here by someone and confined here against their will; otherwise, the contest between demon beast species would not allow them to gather peacefully like this!" The burly man from the Divine Power Pangolin Clan nodded in agreement.
"Who could it be? To kill so many low-cultivation demon beasts with a single punch, why do such a thing?" The young girl from the Immortal Deer Descendant Clan asked somewhat sorrowfully.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Suddenly, several streams of resentment shot up into the sky, exploding above the massive pit. The resentment of these demon beasts was intense; they were of low cultivation, lacking in power, easy targets, yet they were slaughtered, their blood staining the ground, innocent casualties. How could they tolerate this? Yet resentment is all that remains for them; what more could they do? If resentment could seek revenge, could kill, they wouldn’t have died so tragically!
"Could it be... no, it can’t be!" The burly man from the Divine Power Pangolin Clan suddenly seemed to think of something, shaking his head in disbelief.
"What is it?" Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but ask, puzzled.
The burly man from the Divine Power Pangolin Clan glanced at Ye Tianchen, then at the Flying Little Leopard, the young boy from the Black Sky Cat Clan, and the young girl from the Immortal Deer Descendant Clan, speaking seriously: "Haven’t you thought of the story passed down from the Ancient Times of the demon clan?"
"This... could it be..." The Flying Little Leopard was shocked and asked in astonishment.
"It’s just like the ancient legend passed down in our demon clan!" The young boy from the Black Sky Cat Clan also seemed to remember something.
"Could such a method truly exist? But... it’s too cruel. Wouldn’t casting such a shocking demon skill cultivated in this way be afraid of the resentment backfiring?" The young girl from the Immortal Deer Descendant Clan asked, frowning.
The Ten Thousand Demon Burial Pit is a scene that leaves one utterly speechless: tens of thousands of demon beasts slaughtered, most with low or no cultivation, ensnared in a massive pit, their corpses soaked in their own blood. Such innocent, wrongful death, such heavy resentment from wrongful slaughter—it’s already overwhelming. Soaking their corpses in the blood that flowed from their own bodies, rotting their own bodies with it—is there anything more tragic than this? Their resentment would not dissipate until the moment their bodies vanished... (To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets at Qidian (qidian.com).
