Chapter 1961: Chapter 1959: [Unexpected Barbaric Forbidden Land Situation]
Wuyun Mountain shattered!
It was instead the gathered resentment soaring into the sky; it turns out that the creator of the Ten Thousand Demon Burial Pit and the cultivator of the Demon Clan’s shocking demon skills was the ancestor of the Demon Bat Clan. This was also a long-planned and ambitious move by the Demon Bat Clan.
Unfortunately, the Demon Bat Young Prince overestimated his own capacity, trying to absorb this resentment to rapidly increase his strength, only to end up with a fate of complete annihilation. Instead, he was devoured by the resentment, transforming into a cloud of blood mist!
However, just as Ye Tianchen asked the Flying Little Leopard and other four demon beasts to leave first, while he stayed to resist the resentment that devoured the Demon Bat Young Prince and was now attacking him, a voice unexpectedly emerged from the Barbaric Forbidden Land, as if the resentment heard some kind of summoning and rushed into the Barbaric Forbidden Land.
"What? The ancestor of the Demon Bat Clan who practiced the shocking demon skills is still alive? This... is that even possible?" The Flying Little Leopard asked in disbelief.
"There really is such a possibility. After all, to be able to gather this resentment and summon it like a mountain-sized Great Demon Bat, there isn’t a second person one can think of!" The burly man of the Divine Power Pangolin Clan said with a frown.
"This powerful resentment flew into the Barbaric Forbidden Land, who knows what will happen next!" The girl from the Immortal Deer Descendant Clan thought for a moment and said.
"But, if the ancestor of the Demon Bat Clan is still alive and has also cultivated the shocking demon skills, wouldn’t they be invincible?" The youth from the Black Sky Cat Clan said.
Ye Tianchen paused for a moment, and then looked at the direction where the resentment gathered into a demon bat flew to, and calmly said: "Even if one has cultivated the shocking demon skills, it does not mean they have succeeded. Even if they have cultivated to the realm of Great Success, it does not mean there are no opponents; the Martial Arts World is mysterious and endless, with countless strong ones, there are always some who are exceptional!"
"So what do we do now? Are we still heading into the Barbaric Forbidden Land without any clues?" The Flying Little Leopard thought and asked.
"Of course we are going, but it is not without any clues!" Ye Tianchen smiled slightly.
Swish!
Ye Tianchen’s right hand condensed Martial Arts True Qi, reaching out a hand towards the shattered ruins of Wuyun Mountain. An all-black, palm-sized little demon bat was caught from the ruins, its eyes filled with terror, chirping frantically. Its pair of shining golden eyes were the biggest feature of a Demon Bat Clan member.
"This is... a member of the Demon Bat Clan?" The Flying Little Leopard asked in surprise.
"This thing has been hiding behind us for a long time, tracking us for a long time. Seeing the Demon Bat Young Prince dead, it wanted to sneak away by hiding there, planning to leave after we do, but how could it be that easy!" Ye Tianchen smiled slightly and said.
It turns out that back at the Ten Thousand Demon Burial Pit, Ye Tianchen had already sensed the presence of this little bat from the Demon Bat Clan. After all, Ye Tianchen’s Divine Thought was extremely powerful, and this little bat thought it had gone unnoticed, following quietly all along, using the special power shared among the Demon Bat Clan members to report back to the Demon Bat Young Prince constantly. Ye Tianchen didn’t capture this little bat earlier because he wanted to see who it was liaising with, but unexpectedly, they ended up at Wuyun Mountain, guarded by the Demon Bat Clan. This was indeed a coincidence!
"Has this guy been following us for a long time? It seems this Demon Bat Young Prince was also a sly one!" The Flying Little Leopard said somewhat displeased.
"Just kill it, too despicable and sinister!" The youth from the Black Sky Cat Clan said harshly.
"Hmm, I think so too, how about frying it up to eat? I’m carrying a big pot with me!" Ye Tianchen said with a chuckle.
"No, don’t eat me, don’t kill me. You’ll want to know something, I’ll tell you everything!" The Little Demon Bat Beast shivered in fear and quickly spoke.
"Really? It’s so small, and it can speak human language?" The Flying Little Leopard said, quite surprised.
"I, I was personally enabled to gain spiritual wisdom and speak human language by the Demon Bat Ancestor. Our Demon Clan only has three members left, and now with the Demon Bat Young Prince dead, only the Demon Bat Ancestor and I are left!" The Little Demon Bat Beast quickly explained.
The current Little Demon Bat Beast had a very low cultivation realm. Under normal circumstances, it would take at least a hundred years to gain spiritual wisdom, but after the reemergence of the Demon Bat Clan’s ancestor, it needed to cultivate the Demon Clan’s shocking demon skills. With only three members left in the Demon Clan, highly in need of assistance, they awakened the spiritual wisdom of this Little Demon Bat Beast, allowing it to understand human speech and have a more flexible mind, so that it could serve the Demon Bat Ancestor and the Demon Bat Young Prince!
Therefore, this Little Demon Bat Beast itself was quite weak, unlike the Demon Bat Young Prince who was arrogant and cocky. Especially after witnessing Ye Tianchen’s strength, with the Demon Bat Young Prince being completely outmatched, this Little Demon Bat Beast could only think that it hoped this powerful human clan cultivator wouldn’t kill it. It hadn’t even started its cultivation yet, hadn’t grown strong, and to be killed like this was a bit unjust, and a bit reluctant!
"Alright, if you can answer our questions properly and truthfully, we will consider sparing you. But if you say even half a lie or refuse to speak, we’ll cook you right away!" The Flying Little Leopard grinned mischievously as he spoke.
"Exactly. We can tell if what you say is true or false. You don’t want to die so soon, do you?" laughed the Black Sky Cat Clan youth.
"You... you can ask your questions!" The Little Demon Bat Beast, thoroughly frightened, could only nod in agreement.
"First question, how big is the Barbaric Forbidden Land?" Ye Tianchen pondered for a moment before asking.
"I don’t know. What I know is that the Barbaric Forbidden Land is divided into the four great continents: East, South, West, and North!" The Little Demon Bat Beast shook his head as he replied.
"What? Four great continents in the directions of East, South, West, and North?" Ye Tianchen was stunned. Wouldn’t that mean it’s much larger than all three Ancient Martial Worlds combined?
"This is what our Demon Bat Clan’s ancestor mentioned. It said that the Barbaric Forbidden Land once encompassed a large part of Earth, passed down from the Ancient Era!" The Little Demon Bat Beast thought for a moment before asking.
"Are there only powerful Demon Beasts and dormant Ancient Alien Races here?" Ye Tianchen continued his questioning.
"There are indeed many powerful Demon Beast clans, yet it seems no one has ever seen these dormant Ancient Alien Races. However, many are mistaken; in the Barbaric Forbidden Land, there are actually many Human Clan cultivators, especially the strong young generation. Many have come here for training!" The Little Demon Bat Beast spoke.
"No way! How could the strong young generation of the Human Clan get in? The Demon Clans safeguarding the edge of the Barbaric Forbidden Land are formidable and not to be trifled with. No one could possibly get in!" The Flying Little Leopard clearly didn’t believe it.
The Little Demon Bat Beast glanced at the Flying Little Leopard with an evident look of contempt, as if saying these five guardians at the edge of the Barbaric Forbidden Land were of inferior, low-class species. Angered, the Flying Little Leopard almost wanted to punch the Little Demon Bat Beast, but Ye Tianchen stopped him, reasoning that they had finally captured someone who was willing to talk, and if he were to be beaten to death, that would be tragic!
"It seems these long-established Cultivation Families and Cultivation Immortal Sects on Earth have some secret techniques, secretly sending young disciples of their lineage here without needing to pass through the edge of the Barbaric Forbidden Land!" Ye Tianchen thought aloud.
"Exactly. Entering the Barbaric Forbidden Land via the edge is just a common method for many. In reality, there is also a special short-distance teleportation formation that directly sends some people into the Barbaric Forbidden Land!" The Little Demon Bat Beast explained.
Ye Tianchen nodded. When the Little Demon Bat Beast mentioned that Human Clan’s strong young generation had entered here, Ye Tianchen had envisioned such a possibility. Back at the Earth Sea Domain, when he competed for the Immortal Roc Stone Sculpture inheritance, Qing Tian, Pangu Yun, Huo Xianer, Jing Wuhuan, and others suddenly appeared. They had been sent by a special formation associated with the inheritance. Considering that old-timers with inheritance might send the young generation to seize opportunities, it’s conceivable that they’d also send them to the Barbaric Forbidden Land for training, perhaps seeking even greater chances.
"No way! The Barbaric Forbidden Land could be enclosed by a formation?" The Black Sky Cat Clan youth was also doubtful.
"The formations within the Barbaric Forbidden Land only encompass this space within; they don’t prevent others from entering. It’s not a defensive formation!" A burly man from the Divine Power Pangolin Clan shook his head and explained.
"Yes, precisely for this reason, every so often, these inheritances send young people in to seize opportunities. Unfortunately, most never return." The Little Demon Bat Beast nodded, affirming.
"I just want to know, within the Barbaric Forbidden Land, which continent is most likely where we can find Spiritual Medicine Divine Grass or potentially life-extending Immortal Elixir?" Ye Tianchen pondered a moment before asking.
"Spiritual Medicine Divine Grass is most abundant in the East Continent, but there’s no life-extending Immortal Elixir!" The Little Demon Bat Beast shook his head as he replied.
"That seems right. Let’s head to the East Continent. You’ll come along with us and we’ll see if you’re telling the truth!" Ye Tianchen chuckled as he said.
"Huh? No, please don’t go to the East Continent!" The Little Demon Bat Beast quickly retracted, looking distressed.
"Why can’t we go to the East Continent? We’re giving you more time to live. Don’t you want to live?" The Flying Little Leopard responded annoyed.
"Going to the East Continent would really just prolong life momentarily; there’s certain death there!" The Little Demon Bat Beast looked as if he was about to cry. (To be continued.
