187: The strange guardian of the lock beast tower
Qin Yun immediately activated the Formation Plate's teleportation effect and tried to recall Keer, but both attempts failed.
“Ding! This Secret Realm has Divine-Grade spatial suppression; the Formation Plate’s teleportation effect cannot be used!”
“Ding! Your contracted NPC has been placed under a Restriction and cannot be recalled temporarily!”
“This!!!”
Although Qin Yun wasn't immediately worried about their lives, as they both had resurrection coin, he didn't know what the mysterious Demon God would do to her.
No matter what!
He had to find a way to rescue them!
Qin Yun immediately set off, rapidly heading towards the Lock Beast Tower.
Due to the Demon God's power Restriction in this Secret Realm, flying was impossible, so Qin Yun could only bound forward, reaching the Peak speed of a Nine-Tier.
Roar!
He had just started when many fierce Demonic Beasts attacked him. Their Ranks varied, but none exceeded Eight-Tier!
“Jie! Damn Human Race, you still dare to come in, I’ll kill you!”
The speaker was an Eight-Tier Demonic Beast of the BOSS Rank, a Flame Demon Horned Beast.
But with a single strike,
Qin Yun cut it down!
To rescue them as quickly as possible, Qin Yun didn't intend to get entangled with these Demonic Beasts. He immediately released his innate talent, sweeping through them!
“Infinite Devour!”
The Heavenly Abyss enveloped them.
At the same time.
All the Demonic Beasts stared blankly at the sky.
“What’s happening?”
The next second.
Except for Nine-Tier Demonic Beasts, all other Demonic Beasts, no matter how powerful, whether BOSS or elite beasts, were without exception completely devoured!
Just like the Demon Cave map, all BOSSes were spat out, while otherStrange Beast were spat out randomly!
Besides Little Deer and Golden Niu, Bili Si and a few others were sent by Qin Yun to find upgrade magic boxes.
With such a large map and so many Demonic Beasts devoured, surely at least one or two upgrade magic boxes would drop, right?
As for Qin Yun, he continued forward.
Soon.
Qin Yun passed through the edge area and entered the outer region, arriving at a desert.
“Roar! Human Race brat, was that Devouring Heavenly Abyss just now caused by you?!”
The outer region of the Secret Realm contained a large number of Nine-Tier Demonic Beasts, each over a thousand meters tall and exceptionally fierce!
Normally, Qin Yun would have a good fight with this group of Nine-Tier Demonic Beasts, but now Qin Yun had no such intention!
Cancel Fusion!
Suicide Revival!
In one go!
“He committed suicide?”
This group of Nine-Tier Demonic Beasts was collectively dumbfounded.
Although encountering them meant certain death, it wasn't enough to commit suicide, right?
Suddenly!
Qin Yun's figure appeared behind them.
“Not good! He didn’t commit suicide, he’s bypassing us!”
A Sandworm Demonic Beast BOSS exclaimed in anger.
Its body was round, its mouth layered with sharp teeth, capable of crushing a mountain with one bite.
Before they could act, Qin Yun disappeared again.
Just like that.
Qin Yun easily passed through the outer region and entered the inner region!
The Demonic Beasts here were even stronger!
The weakest was actually a leader-level Nine-Tier BOSS, and the strongest reached the Nine-Tier Beast Emperor level!
When this group of Demonic Beasts saw an intruder, they collectively surrounded him, but how could they stop Qin Yun? The effect of the resurrection coin was simply too unresolvable!
“Ding! You have entered the central area of the Lock Beast Tower Secret Realm. Guarding the Lock Beast Tower is a Nine-Tier Divine-Grade BOSS. You need to defeat it before you can enter the Lock Beast Tower!”
Qin Yun frowned!
He needed to defeat a Nine-Tier Divine-Grade BOSS to enter?
This wasn't going to be easy!
Qin Yun was very clear about the strength of a Nine-Tier Divine-Grade BOSS.
Even though Qin Yun was already Eight-Tier, defeating a BOSS of this Rank would not be easy; it would take a considerable amount of time.
Three days!
Definitely not enough!
No!
It was already less than three days; traveling here had already taken most of a day.
Now, Qin Yun could only brace himself and go for it. At worst, he would see if he could provoke the ancient Demon God who made the move, and let her capture him into the Lock Beast Tower as well!
Immediately.
Qin Yun directly approached the Nine-Tier Divine-Grade BOSS.
The strange thing was.
There were no guards around this BOSS; in such a large place, it was the only one!
And unlike other Demonic Beast BOSSes, its body was not huge; on the contrary, it was quite petite.
It wore full-body demon armor, including its tail, which formed a sharp demonic blade at the tip.
The demon armor was overall black-silver, covered in demonic patterns, with distinct sharp edges, and crimson energy surged within, full of a sense of technology!
“Name: Lock Beast Tower Guardian · Thorn Shadow Makat · Divine-Grade BOSS”
“Rank: Nine-Tier LV270”
It sat on the steps at the entrance of the Lock Beast Tower, holding a book titled “On the Self-Cultivation of Demonic Beasts,” reading it carefully.
It was clear that this was a very tasteful Divine-Grade Demonic Beast!
Clap!
Thorn Shadow Makat closed the ancient demon book in its hand and elegantly stood up: “A newly emerged Beast Taming Race, the Human Race? Interesting, a little Human Race fellow can actually make it here, not simple. Was that Devouring Heavenly Abyss just now released by you?!”
Its voice was that of an intellectual woman, sexy, gentle, without any hint of killing intent, forming a stark contrast with the Demonic Beasts outside!
“Is killing you the only way for me to enter the Lock Beast Tower?”
“No need to kill me, just defeat me will suffice, or, if I voluntarily concede, that works too!”
“Hmm?”
Qin Yun’s eyes narrowed slightly; this BOSS was a bit unusual!
Was this truly a Demonic Beast Divine-Grade BOSS?
Why did its behavior resemble an NPC?
Could it be an NPC in disguise?
Just like the Dark Believers!
“Are you interested in hearing a story from me?”
“…”
“Sorry, because it’s been too long since a living being came here, I’ve been lonely for too long, and I talk a bit much. If you want to choose to fight me directly, I’ll have to make my move now.”
Makat said elegantly.
“How long will your story take?”
If he could make her voluntarily concede, it would save a lot of time.
“Not long, just an hour! If you can listen carefully, perhaps I will voluntarily concede and let you in, and even give you a hint!”
Tap!
Qin Yun took out a table from his backpack and some food and wine: “If you don’t mind, you can drink while you tell your story!”
“An interesting Human Race fellow, big sis would be delighted!”
Makat sat down and began to eat and drink.
Qin Yun noticed that the mouth revealed beneath her demon armor was not a Demonic Beast’s mouth, but a soft, small mouth like that of a Human Race girl.
“A long, long time ago, there was a special Race called the Demon Taming Race. They specialized in taming Demonic Beasts and took pride in contracting them!”
“This Race gave birth to an unprecedented super Genius. She could fuse with various Demonic Beasts, becoming infinitely powerful, and also created the miraculous Dao item, the upgrade magic box, which could upgrade any Dao item, up to +10!”
Hearing this, Qin Yun’s heart trembled. The upgrade magic box wasn't a rule Dao item? It was created by the Demon Taming Race?
Were other magic boxes also created by the Demon Taming Race?
Qin Yun didn't ask questions and continued to be a listener.
“But she didn’t know that the price of infinitely fusing Demonic Beasts was eventually losing her true nature and becoming a terrifying fiend who only knew slaughter!”
“One day, she finally became completely demonized. The Demon Taming Race was personally buried and destroyed by her, and she also became a unique Demon God Dominator, even more ferocious than foreign beasts, destroying everything she saw, including foreign beasts!”
Makat became more and more agitated as she spoke, recounting the Hellish slaughter in detail.
“Finally, she was surrounded and defeated by the Dominators of the Nine Great Forbidden Zones of the foreign beasts, but that also allowed her to regain some sanity. She deeply regretted personally destroying the Demon Taming Race.”
“To revive the Demon Taming Race, she fought her way out, escaping and creating a Secret Realm here, locking herself at the top of the Lock Beast Tower, never to leave until the Demon Taming Race Bloodline was revived! The story is finished, exactly one hour!”
Makat finished speaking, wiping away tears from the corners of her eyes.
“Why did you tell me this story? Are you perhaps the revived Bloodline of the Demon Taming Race?”
Qin Yun asked.
“No, that’s not it. The reason I told you this story is simply because I’ve been lonely for too long, and also, it’s to help you understand the situation of the Lock Beast Tower more easily!”
“The Lock Beast Tower has 12 floors, built based on the Beast Taming Tower. The first floor is One-Tier Demonic Beasts, the second floor is Two-Tier, and so on, up to the twelfth floor, which is an Upper-Rank Demon God!”
“These Demonic Beasts are all separated from the Demon God Dominator’s body, which means these Demonic Beasts are all the Demon God Dominator’s power!”
“So, you should understand now, right? Alright, I concede, you can go in. Your friend was captured by the guy on the twelfth floor. That’s the evil Origin of the Demon God Dominator, the most powerful. It just depends on whether you have the ability to rescue your friend from her hands!”
“Oh! Right, a hint for you: because she forcibly made a move, she suffered a backlash from the Secret Realm’s rules. Now she is only Nine-Tier Rank and needs 48 hours to recover. You still have 36 hours to ascend the tower.”
After speaking, Makat sat back on the steps on her own, continuing to read “On the Self-Cultivation of Demonic Beasts.”
