180: Whispering

“Rebirth of a Supreme Bone…”

The goatee-bearded Great Witch was stunned.

He almost couldn’t believe his eyes.

Something of legend was actually happening before him.

“This oppressive feeling… it feels even stronger than the last Supreme Bone… Senior Sister… you did it.”

Le Xiaoyao’s eyes showed a hint of pleasant surprise.

But also a touch of melancholy.

This feeling was as if he had returned to a hundred years ago.

Even after a Breakthrough to the Profound Cave Realm, he was no match for the young girl before him.

Upon closer thought, a hundred years had already passed.

Whoosh—

The goatee-bearded Great Witch burned his Bloodline, fleeing toward the horizon at extreme speed.

“Oh no! This person is trying to escape!”

Le Xiaoyao suddenly startled awake.

“No rush… he can’t escape…”

Before he knew it, Qian Ya had already arrived beside Le Xiaoyao.

Breaking through to the Profound Cave Realm in Body Refining and becoming a Great Witch meant that even without burning Witch Blood, her speed, strength, and defense were comprehensively enhanced.

She was seen with surging Qi and Blood, and a dense Qi and Blood Power gathered on her body surface, materializing into a phantom like a Demon God.

“This is the Witch Clan’s Demon God Body… such a powerful enhancement effect.”

Qian Ya’s eyes suddenly sharpened as she looked toward the horizon, a slight curve forming on her lips.

Bang—

With a stomp of her foot, the Void Realm trembled violently, erupting with pure white airflow that shot toward the horizon.

Ten breaths later, a scream came from the horizon.

Witch Blood rained down into the forest like water.

“We should go…”

“Alright, Senior Sister.”

The two exchanged a smile, just as they had a hundred years ago when they first entered the Witch Clan World.

After a long while, two figures crawled out of the underground cave, cautiously looking toward the horizon.

“The three Clan Chiefs of the Royal Clan are all dead… our Witch Clan has no more Great Witches…”

Zhou Xin’s face was ashen, filled with despondency.

Although the Royal Clan oppressed the lower echelons of the Witch Clan, at this moment of chaos, they were the Witch Clan’s pillar of support.

Now, this pillar… had fallen… Once the news spread, other forces would likely madly devour them, and exterminating the Witch Clan might not be impossible.

“Could it be that our Witch Clan is truly destined for extinction…”

Thinking this, Zhou Xin’s face couldn’t help but show despair.

Mo Lin, beside him, scoffed, a hint of madness appearing in her eyes: “What’s there to fear? We will Breakthrough to Great Witches and become the new Royal Clan…”

These past few days, she had felt the Golden Source Blood within her body continuously being digested, and her strength constantly increasing.

The Great Witch Realm was not an unattainable Domain.

“You’re right, with the Witch God’s blessing, we can surely restore the Witch Clan’s glory and expel the Extraterrestrial Demon from our world.” Zhou Xin gritted his teeth, a glimmer of hope appearing in his eyes.

“Mm… for now, we must quickly collect the essence blood left by those three old ghosts. After a while, we will slaughter the Royal Clan, replace them, and migrate our Witch Clan to the Northern Cold Region.”

The Great Witch’s remaining essence blood, even after Qian Ya had blasted it apart and absorbed most of it, still had a considerable amount scattered throughout this area with the blood rain.

Qian Ya didn’t care for the residual Qi and Blood Power.

But that didn’t mean the two of them didn’t.

Mo Lin’s Qi and Blood surged, her body covered in a faint golden layer, and an infinite suction force appeared in her palm.

The Witch Blood remaining on the soil, leaves, and rocks seemed to be summoned, rushing madly toward her.

A moment later, the two re-submerged into the ground… Shu Mountain.

Immortal Cave secret chamber.

Gu Changsheng sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, muttering incantations. His Soul Sea churned, emitting strange and inexplicable syllables that continuously merged into the Void Realm.

Suddenly, he abruptly opened his eyes, a smile appearing in them.

“A creature in the Strange Beast World has heard my babbling…”

The Incantation Descent Method, for descending into another world, had restrictive conditions.

Aside from the strength of the body and the sacrifice of essence blood,

the most important was the Soul resonance of the otherworldly creature.

Only then could it hear the caster’s babbling and become the spirit medium for the descent.

Gu Changsheng’s eyes flickered, and his gaze fell upon the golden beast bone in his Dantian.

The beast bone, which was originally several zhang in size, was now less than one zhang.

A hundred years had consumed sixty percent of the golden beast bone’s power.

At most, one more Supreme Bone could be condensed.

Fortunately, Gu Changsheng had already deduced the origin of this bone.

It originated from the Strange Beast World.

“In fifty years at most, the golden beast bone will be completely depleted.

Fortunately, a creature in the Strange Beast World has responded to my babbling… I hope… it’s a humanoid Strange Beast…”

Gu Changsheng’s eyes turned grayish-white, his Soul Sea churned, and a mass of consciousness gradually merged into the Void Realm, as if enveloped in a void wrapped in amniotic fluid.

The earth, mountains, and sky gradually became smaller and smaller, until they passed through an indescribable barrier. The entire world seemed like a giant egg wrapped in gray mist.

“Is this the Human Realm…”

This mass of consciousness merged into the depths of the Void Realm, and in the ethereal, he heard familiar babbling, clear as a guide.

After drifting for a long time, a world surrounded by a crimson crystal wall appeared before his eyes.

“Strange Beast World…”

The consciousness, like a swimming fish, plunged into this world… Strange Beast World.

Bai Shi City.

A woman in black armor with an exquisitely beautiful face floated in the Void Realm, her silver hair swaying in the wind, her eyes filled with icy killing intent.

Before her, a massive number of wriggling Strange Beasts surrounded the entire city.

The strongest one, a Tier 4 Qiya Strange Elephant, was a hundred zhang tall and less than ten li from the city wall.

“Cut.”

A cold voice emerged.

Bang bang bang—

The head of the enormous, mountain-like Qiya Strange Elephant exploded, its foul-smelling brain matter splattering everywhere, and its life force dissipated.

Inside the city, countless Ghoul Humans exclaimed in awe.

“The Tier 4 Qiya Strange Elephant is dead… as expected of the Royal Clan’s little princess.

So strong!”

“Our Bai Shi City’s beast tide crisis is over!”

“This is the thirteenth city Princess Yun Liu has rescued…”

“That’s great, we no longer have to wander the Great Wilderness…”

Yun Liu swung her greatsword, burning with icy bone flames, easily severing the Qiya Strange Elephant’s head, a slight curve forming on her lips.

Her Qi and Blood circulated, countless miniature Strange Beast carvings lit up, their auras connected as one, and a black hole-like suction force generated in her palm.

Visibly, the Tier 4 Qiya Strange Elephant’s head melted like a gelatinous substance, and strands of essence converged into her Bloodline. Immediately, Yun Liu felt as if she had taken a powerful tonic, her aura growing even stronger.

“Woof woof.”

The big black dog beside her jumped up and down anxiously, its tail wagging incessantly.

“Hei Yun, what’s the rush?

This Tier 4 beast tide, with over a hundred thousand creatures, is enough for us to refine for a while.”

“Woof woof.”

The big black dog’s eyes showed longing.

“Alright.”

“I’ll give you one at most…”

Yun Liu exerted force with her five fingers, forcibly breaking off a one-zhang-long section of pure white ivory and tossing it to the big black dog beside her.

Immediately, the big black dog seemed to have found a priceless treasure, biting down on the ivory tightly.

Strangely, the pure white ivory before it also melted like a gelatinous substance, gradually being swallowed down its throat into its belly.

Yun Liu felt her Bloodline Power gradually strengthening, and a scene from her childhood appeared in her mind.

A majestic figure from another world, surging golden Qi and Blood, carving thousands of Strange Beast reliefs within her imperceptible body.

Devouring Strange Beast skulls to enhance Bloodline Power.

This was a power bestowed by ‘God’.

Only she in the entire Ghoul Clan possessed it.

Oh, no… and the big black dog, Hei Yun, before her.

“God of another world… Yun Liu will meet you one day…”

Yun Liu looked toward the horizon, her eyes filled with unwavering determination… Outside Luan Shi City.

A shabby shack built with rotten wood.

On a crude wooden bed, a shriveled, emaciated young man lay shirtless, a small amount of blood slowly flowing from his heart.

A bone knife, about a foot long, lay quietly on the ground.

The cause of death was self-evident.

Suddenly, the blood flowed backward, and the wound in his heart healed rapidly.

Thump thump—

A dull, powerful heartbeat sounded.

The young man’s body twisted, his limbs moving unconsciously, like a ritual dance.

He suddenly opened his eyes.

“A different aura… the Strange Beast World… I’ve finally arrived…”

Gu Changsheng took a deep breath.
