Chapter 674: Celestial Desolate Five Poison Beasts

As soon as the Holy Land opened, many experts stood up and hurried toward the Space Gate.

Ten experts from the Kuafu Race stood guard on either side of the Space Gate. The twenty-five-meter-tall Kuafu expert said coolly, “Any expert below the Level of War Emperor may enter. Inside the Holy Land, life and death are your own concern! However…”

His gaze shifted toward the experts from the Divine Cities.

“We are well aware of the rules!”

King Lingxiao replied coolly, “As long as the experts of the Kuafu Race don’t move against our Four-direction Divine City, we naturally won’t harm them!”

The experts from the other three Great Divine Cities echoed his sentiment.

The Kuafu Race expert nodded. “In that case, please enter.”

The experts of the Kuafu Race entered first, followed by the Eight Great Battle Clans.

The War Spirit Holy Land held countless opportunities and many powerful legacies, so all the great War Races had dispatched numerous experts to enter.

The Spirit Cat Race had the fewest experts, but their numbers still exceeded one hundred.

Of course…

The experts of the Spirit Cat Race were all exclusively Cat Girl Warriors. Each possessed a graceful and voluptuous figure, drawing lecherous gazes from many of the other experts.

Hong Yu finally managed to coax Miaomiao off of him and emerged, surrounded by a crowd of Cat Girl Warriors.

He immediately attracted the attention of every expert present.

With the exception of the Kuafu Race experts, nearly every gaze directed at Hong Yu was filled with hostility, or perhaps, thick jealousy.

“So that’s the powerful reinforcement the Spirit Cat Race invited? I’ve never heard of him before!”

“I think his name is Beichen.”

“Tsk, tsk, I’m so jealous of this guy! Not only is he so intimate with the Spirit Cat Queen and the Saintess, but he also has all these Cat Girl Warriors accompanying him alone. Tsk, tsk, what a lucky bastard!”

“You really shouldn’t be jealous. I heard he offended God King Chen Tao and King Lingxiao. Those two are no simple characters. Judging by their expressions, I’m sure they’ll team up to deal with the Spirit Cat Race and that Beichen!”

“King Lingxiao and God King Chen Tao are both incredibly powerful, belonging to the first tier of experts below the City Lord Level. If they team up, that Beichen is a dead man!”

“Beauty truly is a fatal attraction!”

The crowd of experts sighed with emotion.

Hong Yu naturally overheard their conversations, but he paid them no mind. His strength had greatly increased, and he no longer feared King Lingxiao or Chen Tao.

Besides…

He just needed to find the Ten Thousand Year-old Polygonum multiflorum, and he could immediately start Refining the Nine Orifice Breaking God Pill.

Once he broke through to the Primordial Spirit Realm, his combat power would soar to the City Lord Level.

At that time,

He wouldn’t just be unafraid of some God Kings; he wouldn’t even fear the City Lords of the Four Great Divine Cities!

The Spirit Cat Race walked at the very end of the line of the Eight Great Battle Clans.

Just as Hong Yu and his one hundred Cat Girl Warriors reached the front of the Space Gate, he felt several powerful auras lock onto him.

Glancing sideways, he saw King Lingxiao and God King Chen Tao staring at him with cold, sinister smiles.

“Heh heh, enjoy the last moments of your life!”

CRACK!

Chen Tao raised his right hand and slowly drew a line across his own neck, revealing a savage, cold sneer.

Hong Yu’s brow furrowed.

‘These two really won’t be happy until I’m dead!’

“Hmph. Just wait until I break through to the Primordial Spirit Realm. I’ll pin you to the ground and beat you senseless!” Hong Yu muttered, then led the Cat Girl Warriors into the Space Gate.

The space ahead rippled.

Hong Yu and the Cat Girl Warriors were teleported away, entering the War Spirit Holy Land.

The War Spirit Holy Land was vast and majestic.

Amidst the green mountains and clear waters, the figures of Desolate Beasts could be seen moving about. However, these Desolate Beasts were not very strong. Sensing the spatial fluctuations, they scattered and fled.

“Where are we?” Hong Yu asked.

A Cat Girl Warrior stepped forward and said respectfully, “My lord, the teleportation was random, so we do not know our current location. However, Her Majesty the Queen gave this subordinate a map and instructed me to give it to you after we entered the Holy Land.”

“Mm.”

Hong Yu accepted a Jade Scroll.

After pouring his Spiritual Brand into the Jade Scroll, Hong Yu memorized the map. He then handed it back to the Cat Girl Warrior. “Did Mei’Er have any other instructions?”

“Her Majesty the Queen also had this subordinate give you a Holy Spirit Command Stone, my lord. If anything major happens, you can use this Holy Spirit Command Stone to contact Her Majesty. However, it can only be used once before it is destroyed,” the Cat Girl Warrior said.

Hong Yu took the Holy Spirit Command Stone and placed it in his Storage Ring.

He then recalled the map and said, “We are currently in the Celestial Desolation Valley. It’s guarded by a Celestial Desolate Five Poison Beast. To leave this place, we have to kill the Celestial Desolate Five Poison Beast and exit through its territory. Otherwise, even if we take to the sky, we will be constrained by the Holy Land’s Prohibition.”

“The medicinal garden is about half a month’s journey from here. It seems we’ll have to kill the Celestial Desolate Five Poison Beast first and get out of here before anything else,” Hong Yu muttered to himself.

He then commanded the Cat Girl Warriors under him, “Spread out and find the Celestial Desolate Five Poison Beast. After we kill it, we’ll leave this place!”

“Understood, my lord!”

The Cat Girl Warriors were well-trained and quickly set about their task.

Hong Yu, however, sat cross-legged on the ground and began to cultivate quietly. The situation in the War Spirit Holy Land was currently turbulent.

‘The Four Great Divine Cities are all connected; they’ll definitely join forces against me.’

And besides them…

‘The Eight Great Battle Clans are no pushovers either.’

All of this required him to maintain his Peak condition at all times, or he would struggle to handle any sudden crises.

The Cat Girl Warriors were highly efficient. About an hour later, one returned and said respectfully, “My lord, we’ve found the exit to the east. The Celestial Desolate Five Poison Beast is asleep!”

“Good. You wait here. Come find me in half an hour,” Hong Yu instructed.

The Cat Girl Warrior hesitated. “But Her Majesty the Queen ordered us to prioritize your safety, my lord. We…”

Hong Yu waved his hand dismissively. “Even your queen listens to me, so you just wait here. That Celestial Desolate Five Poison Beast is an expert in poison. If you all come along, you’ll just be a burden to me!”

“…”

The Cat Girl Warrior was speechless.

In the end, however, she had no choice but to nod in agreement.

Now that he was alone, with no outsiders around, Hong Yu could unleash his Divine Demon Wings without restraint. Soaring through the air, he found the Celestial Desolate Five Poison Beast in about five minutes.

The Celestial Desolate Five Poison Beast was covered in venomous tumors.

It resembled a gigantic spider, with nine dark eyes on its head. Its eight long, spider-like legs were planted firmly in the ground like steel rods. The valley’s only exit was right behind the beast.

“This thing is disgusting!”

Hong Yu rubbed his nose.

Ever since he was little, he’d never liked things like spiders, Zhang Lang, or toads.

“ROAR!”

The Celestial Desolate Five Poison Beast had clearly sensed Hong Yu’s killing intent. It slowly awoke, its nine black eyes sweeping toward Hong Yu as it let out an enraged roar.

“PFFT!”

Its mouth, filled with sharp Tusks, suddenly snapped open.

A huge, ghastly white web shot toward Hong Yu.

Aided by his Illusory Spirit Celestial Eyes, Hong Yu’s vision was Insightful, allowing him to see the tiniest details.

He noticed that the web was covered in countless barbs, almost invisible to the naked eye. Each barb looked incredibly tough, and there were likely over a hundred million of them on the entire web.

If he were to be caught in a web like this, he probably wouldn’t be able to break free anytime soon.

“World-Burning Golden Lotus!”

The golden, flame-like lotus-shaped pupil in his right eye bloomed slightly.

Specks of dark golden Nine Netherworld Burning World Flame appeared around his body like blooming flowers, burning fiercely and swaying like petals.

“HISS!”

The moment the web touched the Nine Netherworld Burning World Flame, it instantly caught fire.

As puffs of green smoke rose, the web melted, dripping a white liquid.

The white liquid dripped onto the ground, making a harsh “HISS” as it melted and burned through the earth.

The web was highly venomous!

“Damn, that’s nasty. Good thing I have the Nine Netherworld Burning World Flame. Dealing with this beast would’ve been a real hassle otherwise!” Hong Yu licked his lips. Wreathed in the Nine Netherworld Burning World Flame, he transformed into a fiery meteor and shot toward the Celestial Desolate Five Poison Beast.

“ROAR!”

The Celestial Desolate Five Poison Beast was furious.

Its eight steel-rod-like legs pushed off the ground, launching its body high into the air. It opened its mouth and spat out a volley of seven or eight webs.

These webs were incredibly tough and laced with deadly venom.

Even an ordinary God King expert wouldn’t be able to escape easily if caught.

Fortunately, Hong Yu had the Nine Netherworld Burning World Flame, so he had no fear of the webs. He charged forward with his Godslaying Spear and arrived before the Celestial Desolate Five Poison Beast.

“SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!”

He thrust his spear three times in quick succession.

Each thrust of the Godslaying Spear carried a golden radiance, like a rain of golden lances falling from the sky.

“ROAR!”

The Celestial Desolate Five Poison Beast’s eight spider legs moved like eight arms, striking out one after another.

Its speed was not to be underestimated. Its eight legs moved like eight master spearmen, clashing with Hong Yu.

“CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!”

The crisp sound of weapons clashing rang out clearly.

Sparks flew through the air like brilliant fireworks.

“You’re tough, but now you die!”

Hong Yu stomped on the air, then used Electric Flash to instantly appear beneath the Celestial Desolate Five Poison Beast’s abdomen. With a flap of his Divine Demon Wings, he shot upward.

“PFFT!”

The Godslaying Spear was truly formidable.

With a single thrust, golden light exploded, and the spear instantly pierced through the Celestial Desolate Five Poison Beast’s body.

He entered through its abdomen and burst straight out of its back.

“ROAR!”

The Celestial Desolate Five Poison Beast let out a low growl.

But Hong Yu had already shattered its Demon Spirit. It let out a wretched cry and collapsed limply onto the ground.

Hong Yu breathed a sigh of relief. He walked over to the Celestial Desolate Five Poison Beast and severed its eight spider legs.

They were extremely sharp and durable materials that would be useful later on.

He then blasted apart the web blocking the exit and waited a few minutes for the one hundred Cat Girl Warriors to arrive.

When they saw the Celestial Desolate Five Poison Beast that Hong Yu had killed, the eyes of the Cat Girl Warriors shone with fervent admiration. The Celestial Desolate Five Poison Beast was an incredibly powerful Desolate Beast that was anything but easy to deal with!

Hong Yu rubbed his nose and stood up. “Let’s go. We still don’t know what’s waiting for us up ahead.”

The Cat Girl Warriors nodded and followed him out of the cave entrance.

It was a very long tunnel. Even with Hong Yu’s and the Cat Girl Warriors’ speed, it took them a full half an hour to traverse. When they finally walked out of the valley and saw the scene before them, they were all stunned…

“Holy hell, is the War Spirit Holy Land this rich? They even have these things?”
