King of Creation-Chapter 632 - 624: Yangh Yiguan’s Bounty

"What? A hundred and seven years ago, the Beast Taming Sect was exterminated by the Demon Race!"

In an instant, everyone was stunned by this shocking secret.

The obliteration of the powerful Beast Taming Sect overnight a hundred years ago had always been one of the three great unsolved mysteries of the True Spirit Domain, with the murderer never found.

Although the Beast Taming Sect was not the number one sect in the True Spirit Domain at the time, even if the top-ranked Green Sun Palace had mobilized its entire sect, it wouldn’t have been possible to wipe out the Beast Taming Sect overnight, let alone ensure not a single one of the tens of thousands of sect members survived.

In fact, nearly sixty thousand disciples of the Beast Taming Sect were killed in one night, with none surviving; their bodies piled up like mountains, shocking the entire True Spirit Domain. And it was only because Elder Yangh Yiguan was out that he escaped this catastrophe.

Afterward, Elder Yangh Yiguan of the Beast Taming Sect traveled far and wide in search of the murderer but found nothing. freeweɓnovel.cøm

And now, Elder Yangh actually stated with certainty that the Beast Taming Sect was wiped out by the Demon Race—had he found some clue?

Many people, including Ye Zhen, were hearing about the existence of the Demon Race within the True Spirit Domain for the first time today, and they never imagined that the shocking massacre of the Beast Taming Sect could possibly have been the work of the unheard-of Demon Race, the extent of shock was imaginable.

Truth be told, if this statement hadn’t come from Elder Yangh Yiguan, a survivor of the Beast Taming Sect, anyone who heard it would have dismissed it with two words—absurd!

"I’m sorry, I didn’t know..."

Because her question reminded Elder Yangh Yiguan of painful memories, Hu Qingtong apologized with a sense of guilt on her face.

Elder Yangh Yiguan generously waved his hand, "No harm done, even if you hadn’t mentioned it, this matter surfaces in my mind every evening, punctually... It has been a hundred and seven years..." He sighed lightly.

"Moreover, since I’ve hosted this banquet and collected five hundred thousand mid-grade Spirit Crystals from you, answering questions means sparing no details; even if it feels like a knife in my heart, I must speak, let alone a bit of heartache from the past!"

These words had everyone in attendance nodding in agreement; it was no wonder that Elder Yangh Yiguan had gained increasing fame over the past hundred years; it was not without good reason.

Changing his tone, Elder Yangh Yiguan suddenly looked towards Hu Qingtong, "Miss Hu, are you satisfied with my answer?"

After receiving an affirmative response, Elder Yangh Yiguan then turned his gaze towards Ye Zhen, "Young Hero Ye, it’s your turn!"

"Elder Yangh, my question is very simple; my demon servant, the Cloud Winged Tiger King, has been stuck at the peak of upper-grade Earth Level for a long time due to its Bloodline Talent. I wonder how to break through these Bloodline Shackles and advance?" Ye Zhen asked.

Elder Yangh Yiguan’s gaze paused slightly, "Young Hero Ye, your Cloud Winged Tiger King is a blood-sacrificed demon servant, right? And it should have already undergone one advancement, hasn’t it?"

"Correct, I was fortunate to get a cub, which was just right to be blood-sacrificed into a demon servant! As an adult, it only reached mid-grade Earth Level, but due to serendipitous circumstances, it broke through once," Ye Zhen explained.

"Young Hero Ye, under normal circumstances, my recommendation would be to get a new demon servant! Since you are able to attend my banquet, it shouldn’t be too difficult for you to procure a Heavenly Level Middle Grade monster beast," Elder Yangh Yiguan advised.

"Heh, I am someone who cherishes old ties. Besides, the Cloud Winged Tiger King grew up with me. Moreover, when it comes to fighting, my Cloud Winged Tiger King may not necessarily be afraid of Heavenly Level beasts, and as for changing demon servants..." Ye Zhen laughed.

"Young Hero Ye, under normal circumstances, advancing your Cloud Winged Tiger King is actually not difficult."

"Oh?" Ye Zhen’s eyes brightened suddenly.

"Compared to Heavenly Level beasts, Earth Level beasts, if one is willing to spend a considerable amount of resources, can have their Bloodline Talent raised to at least Heavenly Level Lower Grade. If your Cloud Winged Tiger King takes a Beast Pill that our sect specializes in for elevating Earth Level monster beasts’ bloodlines, raising its grade to Heavenly Level Lower Grade is not difficult at all," Elder Yangh Yiguan said leisurely.

Ye Zhen was delighted but also impatient, "There’s such a Beast Pill? As long as it can enhance the grade of my Cloud Winged Tiger King, please just state your price, Elder Yangh..."

"Young Hero Ye, please be patient and let me finish," Elder Yangh Yiguan interrupted Ye Zhen.

"Oh, I was too eager," seeing Elder Yangh Yiguan’s serious demeanor, the previously excited Ye Zhen suddenly had a bad premonition.

"Young Hero Ye, has your Cloud Winged Tiger King had any kind of unusual adventure? Has it ever swallowed Innate Essence Blood of a High-level monster beast?" Elder Yangh Yiguan suddenly asked.

Ye Zhen was stunned for a moment; swallowing Innate Essence Blood of a High-level monster beast was something that had never happened. Just as Ye Zhen was about to deny it, he suddenly remembered the unique black patterns on the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten.

That was a change that appeared on the Cloud Winged Tiger King after Ye Zhen entered the Black Dragon Underground Palace in the Black Dragon Domain. If there had been any adventure, it would have been that one.

Before Ye Zhen could reply, Elder Yangh Yiguan’s voice rang out again.

"I should be able to confirm this point! Otherwise, with the Cloud Winged Tiger King’s Bloodline Grade, it would have already been terrified out of its wits amidst a group of Heavenly Level beasts, not daring to even breath heavily, let alone daring to approach other Heavenly Level beasts.

Furthermore, I once used a Secret Technique beforehand to sense it, and indeed, within your Cloud Winged Tiger King, there is Innate Essence Blood of another powerful monster beast.

Based on my estimate, the Innate Essence Blood that your Cloud Winged Tiger King has consumed likely belongs to a Heavenly Level Middle Grade or even Heavenly Level High Grade beast, and to this day, it has not yet merged, or rather, it has only merged an extremely small part.

Under these circumstances, as long as your Cloud Winged Tiger King can merge the Innate Essence Blood of that High-level beast within its body, it can naturally advance to Heavenly Level Lower Grade, Heavenly Level Middle Grade, and possibly even Heavenly Level High Grade," Elder Yangh Yiguan declared.

This statement shocked all the martial artists present; Duan Yingnian was especially astonished looking at Ye Zhen. If Ye Zhen’s demon servant could truly advance to Heavenly Level High Grade, that would be truly significant.

A Heavenly Level High Grade beast was a combatant nearing the power of an Establishment Realm King.

"It just... takes a rather long time!" Ye Zhen’s heart plummeted at the words that followed from Yangh Yiguan.

"How long... would that be?" Ye Zhen asked.

"How long has your Cloud Winged Tiger King been devouring the Innate Essence Blood of High-level Monster Beasts?" Yangh Yiguan asked again.

After thinking for a moment, Ye Zhen answered, "About three to four years."

"Three to four years... Based on the current pace of the bloodline fusion, under normal circumstances, it would take your Cloud Winged Tiger King... possibly hundreds of years, at least three to four hundred years, to fully merge with that powerful monster beast’s Innate Essence Blood," Yangh Yiguan said.

"Hundreds of years? At least three to four hundred years?" Ye Zhen’s eyes widened suddenly. If it would really take hundreds of years to advance, then both he and the Cloud Winged Tiger King would have long turned to dust.

The lifespan of an Upper-grade Earth Level Cloud Winged Tiger King topped out at only one to two hundred years, and even Ye Zhen himself, assuming a perfect physical state, would only live for a maximum of two hundred years. By the time the fusion succeeded, they’d already be long gone.

"That’s right, and that’s in the ideal scenario, depending on the grade of the demon beast from where your Cloud Winged Tiger King has devoured the Innate Essence Blood! If it’s from within the Heavenly Level, three to four hundred years would be the maximum! But if it comes from a bloodline surpassing the Heavenly Level Demon Beasts, it could take hundreds to thousands of years!" Yangh Yiguan explained.

"Hundreds to thousands of years?" Ye Zhen was completely dumbfounded, while Duan Yingnian felt relieved.

"Master Yangh, is there really no other method or possibility?" asked Ye Zhen, his mouth corner tinged with bitterness. Regardless of the outcome, he would not give up on the Cloud Winged Tiger King; however, as his Cultivation continued to rise and he encountered increasingly higher levels of martial artists, if the Cloud Winged Tiger King couldn’t advance, their predicament would become more and more perilous.

"There are, in fact, two!"

Yangh Yiguan’s affirmative words reignited hope in Ye Zhen.

"Please enlighten me, Elder Yangh!" Ye Zhen urged somewhat eagerly.

"The first method would be what one calls a miracle! The Heavenly Dao is abundant. There’s always a glimmer of hope left in everything. Should great fortune arrive, or one encounters another serendipity, your Cloud Winged Tiger King might achieve immediate enlightenment and advance on the spot!

However, the chances of this are incredibly slim; you might not see a single instance in hundreds of years! Of course, it’s unpredictable, perhaps in the next moment, or maybe after hundreds or thousands of years, everything is up to fate," Yangh Yiguan said.

Ye Zhen gave a wry smile and shook his head. Clearly, this first method was an improbable one.

"And the second method?"

"The second method is to consume the Sect Guardian Beast Pill Five Elements Blood Melt Pill, a secret pill from the Beast Taming Sect. With the help of the Five Elements Blood Melt Pill as an external force, it would aid the Cloud Winged Tiger King in rapidly refining and merging the Innate Essence Blood of the demon beast it devoured, thereby elevating its grade," Yangh Yiguan explained.

At this, Ye Zhen heaved a sigh of relief. He now had a target for the Five Elements Blood Melt Pill!

When there’s a goal, things are easier to manage. The true despair is when one has strength but no direction to apply it.

"Elder Yangh, I’m not sure if you have this Five Elements Blood Melt Pill here? Or how I might persuade you to bestow upon me one. Please, I ask for clarity," Ye Zhen inquired.

Upon hearing this, Yangh Yiguan laughed heartily, "Young Hero Ye, technically, this should count as your second question! But, out of moral obligation, I will still answer you!"

"I don’t have the Five Elements Blood Melt Pill! It was the treasured legacy of the Beast Taming Sect, known only to the Sect Leader, who could concoct it and had some in possession.

With the Beast Taming Sect destroyed so many years ago, even if I wanted to produce the Five Elements Blood Melt Pill, my hands are tied. I hope for your understanding, Young Hero Ye!"

As the words ’your understanding’ were spoken, Ye Zhen’s figure deflated slightly. He got the impression that the path to the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten’s advancement was being sealed at that moment, causing him an indescribable pain in his heart.

"Young Hero Ye, are you satisfied with my answer?"

Ye Zhen nodded absent-mindedly. Although he did not get the answer he needed, it was undeniable that Yangh Yiguan’s response was very conscientious.

"Everyone, please!"

With the questions over, the banquet entered its genuine feast phase. Despite a table full of delicious food, Ye Zhen ate without any taste, luckily, no one came to the banquet just to eat. After a symbolic few bites and a couple of drinks, the banquet came to an end.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we shall call it a night for the banquet. I thank everyone for gracing this occasion! If there’s anything else you require my service for, you may contact my disciple Ma Yue after today to schedule an appointment, I will be staying in Qinglan Martial City for a month," said Yangh Yiguan.

As he spoke, Yangh Yiguan suddenly clapped his hands, "To express my gratitude to everyone, I have prepared a modest gift for you all, and I hope you will accept it!"

In the next moment, seven disciples of the Beast Taming Sect marched in, each carrying a tray and presented it to the seven individuals present. On the trays were two luminous Jade Scrolls.

"Two Jade Scrolls, the first scroll is a copy of the Demon Spirit Secret Record, a secret technique of the Beast Taming Sect! It includes information on the demon beasts that have appeared in the True Spirit Domain and even across the entire True Profound Continent, including the terrifying beasts within the Endless Dead Sea among the different domains. Their preferences, Bloodline Talents, and temperaments are largely recorded in this Demon Spirit Secret Record.

Even the exceedingly rare information on the Demon Race is also inscribed therein. Hopefully, it will be of assistance to everyone. As for the second Jade Scroll," Yangh Yiguan’s expression suddenly turned solemn.

"The second Jade Scroll is a Reward Jade Scroll containing a bounty I have issued. Whoever finds the item of the bounty, no matter what their request is, I will do my utmost to fulfill it, even if it costs me my old life," Yangh Yiguan said.

At those words, Ye Zhen’s expression abruptly shifted. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation tickets and monthly tickets at Qidian. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian.com to continue reading.)
