Chapter 2182 - 2175: But the Others Didn’t Agree

Zhang Menglong managed to take down these two seventh-grade Transcenders not because his current strength was exceptionally powerful, but rather as a result of a combination of various factors. Under normal circumstances, it would still take him considerable effort to deal with just one seventh-grade Transcender.

As soon as Zhang Menglong’s two opponents were defeated, he immediately joined another battle, which quickly ended in a significant victory for them.

Six seventh-grade Transcenders and one eighth-grade Transcender were killed, leaving only the captain named Kanaru.

He was badly beaten by Zelans, with his chest being pierced right through by the harpoon that had just injured Soren. He was now on the brink of life and death.

His expression could no longer maintain the arrogance and haughtiness from before; it was instead filled with fear.

"Zelans, you can’t kill me! The Holy Soul Alliance does not permit Explorers to slaughter each other!"

Kanaru was still talking about the rules of the Holy Soul Alliance at this time, which made them really want to laugh.

They didn’t believe for a moment that they were Kanaru’s first prey. Before this, with their special abilities, they must have raided many other teams, even committing considerable murder. If the rules of the Holy Soul Alliance were to be considered, they should have died more than once already.

"Is this mutual slaughter?" Zelans laughed, "I’ve collected enough evidence of your attack on us. Even according to the Holy Soul Alliance, it’s merely self-defense for me. Maybe they’ll even give me an award!"

"So, tell me, how are you able to see under normal sight in the Blood Pond?" This was something Zelans was very interested in.

"If I tell you, will you spare me?" Kanaru bargained, as this was his only bargaining chip for survival.

"Alright, I promise, as long as you tell us, I won’t kill you!" Zelans agreed.

"Do you remember that time our team attacked you with a Blood Slave Beast?" Kanaru said.

"Hmm!" Zelans nodded coldly. Mentioning this matter made him angry, as he had lost several well-acquainted teammates that time!

"We used every method to kill that Blood Slave Beast. As you know, it’s almost impossible to kill a Blood Slave Beast in the Blood Pond. The entire Blood Pond is their Life Source. If it gets dragged out, we could be exhausted."

"Then we suddenly thought of a method. Since the Blood Slave Beast relies on the Blood Pond to survive, what if we could separate it from the Blood Pond?"

"By special methods, we isolated part of the Blood Pond from the Blood Slave Beast, even before it completed its body reconstitution. As we thought, its recovery stopped, and we destroyed the rest of it completely. The Blood Slave Beast was left with a very special kind of energy, which can be absorbed by the human body. After absorbing it, we gained the ability to see in the Blood Pond."

"Blood Slave Beast..." Zhang Menglong murmured. Right, he clearly felt something in the Blood Pond attracting him, but until now Zhang Menglong had focused on the Blood Pond itself, ignoring the existence of the Blood Slave Beast.

They might just be the most special existence in this Blood Pond!

"I didn’t expect Blood Slave Beasts to have such a role," Zelans also heard of this for the first time, because until now, it seems no one had successfully captured or truly killed a Blood Slave Beast.

Of course, even if someone did, once they know this information, they’ll likely keep it to themselves to make a fortune, rather than tell others.

"How credible are his words?" Mo Ji clearly didn’t believe him much.

"It should be over 90% credible," Zhang Menglong was monitoring his spiritual power fluctuations. If he was lying, he wouldn’t escape his observation, "Do you have any important information you haven’t disclosed to us? What are you hiding?"

Kanaru shuddered. He knew Zhang Menglong’s Soul Power was extremely powerful and could make judgments based on their spiritual power fluctuations while speaking. So anything he said was true, but he selectively withheld some things, not expecting Zhang Menglong to discover it.

"I’ve already said everything, I’ve hidden nothing," Kanaru still clung to hope.

"In that case, kill him," Zhang Menglong said to Zelans, "He didn’t tell the truth."

"Hmm, since Menglong said he’s lying, then he’s lying," saying this, Zelans directly pulled out the harpoon from his chest.

Kanaru screamed in pain, Zelans was truly ruthless!

And don’t they have any ability to think for themselves? Just because a first-grade Transcender says he’s lying doesn’t mean he’s lying! If he says he’s Emperor Qin Shi Huang, does that make him Emperor Qin Shi Huang?

"Wait! I’ll speak!" Kanaru shivered in fright. If another harpoon attack came, that might be the end of him.

"I’ll give you 1 minute to prepare. If you lie or hide anything again, there won’t be another chance," Zhang Menglong said with a half-smile, his gaze full of menace.

"After the Blood Slave Beast died, the remaining energy was a hostile Soul Power. We had to combine our strength to shatter this Soul Power. Although we absorbed the energy, it took us several months to recover."

"Well," Zhang Menglong coldly chuckled, "If we’re the least bit careless, our souls might be blown apart by this Remnant Soul Power, and we’ll all be dead, won’t we? You’re really a master strategist!"

Kanaru lowered his head in silence. He had initially harbored this intention.

"Was he lying this time?" Zelans asked Zhang Menglong.

"Probably not," Zhang Menglong nodded. Kanaru’s Soul fluctuations were normal, this time he seemed to be telling the truth.

"Can you let me go now?"

Kanaru barely had time to breathe a sigh of relief before a sharp spear impaled his throat.

In his dying moments, he turned his head to see that the one who had attacked was Mo Ji!

"I promised my comrade that if I ever had the chance, I would avenge him." Mo Ji touched a scar on her chest. The scar wasn’t deep because a teammate had blocked a killing blow from a Blood Slave Beast for her.

The attack pierced through her teammate’s body, and the remaining power wasn’t enough to seriously injure her, leaving only a scar, but the comrade sacrificed themselves.

"You didn’t keep your promise..." Kanaru said unwillingly.

"I did promise, our captain also promised, but others didn’t," Zhang Menglong shrugged, "I have no right to make decisions for others."

Despair flashed in Kanaru’s eyes; he was being played!

But the power within him was leaving. He seemed to see his great-grandmother...
