Heaven Slaying Blade

The group of struggling Gray Land creatures was excited! Some were even a bit crazed! They couldn't imagine that there was such a place with essence energy this rich in the world. The Gray Land they lived in, compared to others in the Tunnel, was simply a garbage dump, but compared to this vast territory in front of them, it was clearly not even as good as a latrine!

This place is wonderful!

A large number of Gray Land creatures even drooled uncontrollably, moved to the point of tears.

However, the leader of these Gray Land creatures was quite cautious. Although all its subordinates could be used as cannon fodder, it had to ensure that its own interests were not compromised.

So, it first calmed the agitated Gray Land creature warriors, and then proceeded forward. It had heard that there was terrifying curse power in this magical territory. Thus, it was very careful and sent two subordinates to investigate.

The two Gray Land creatures, with their ugly appearances, although humanoid, would never be mistaken for humans by anyone who saw them.

They had crocodile-like skin, hyena-like heads, a tail full of sharp spikes behind them, two strong legs that appeared powerful and mighty. Their upper limbs were relatively thinner, but had eagle claw-like fingers that glinted coldly and were extremely sharp.

They seemed somewhat afraid of the legend, moving forward slowly.

The leader of the Gray Land creatures roared, "Hurry up!"

The two ugly creatures shivered, quickened their pace, and charged into the territory with utmost density of essence energy, bracing themselves for the worst.

But once they were inside, nothing happened. Instead, the overwhelmingly dense essence energy frenziedly poured into their bodies. There was no need to run any cultivation techniques, no need to actively cultivate. They could just lie there sleeping with their eyes closed and gain significant improvement!

"Oh my god!"

"Good heavens!"

The two ugly Gray Land creatures were so excited that they almost shed tears.

"This is the most wonderful place in the world!"

"This is an incredibly beautiful world!"

They stood there, dancing and shouting loudly, excitedly embracing each other.

The scene was quite comical no matter how one looked at it.

Their leader, however, watched coldly, not fooled by the illusions. Could a place that made the Ancient Dongfang Clan pay such a price truly be without any crisis?

The leader of these Gray Land creatures appeared to be in his thirties, and there wasn't a bit of resemblance to those two ugly creatures from his appearance, yet he, like those two ugly creatures and the millions of troops around him, all belonged to the same race!

The Mane Clan!

He was a descendant of the Mane God Patriarch, who once fiercely battled General Wulong!

This youth had no name, but later gave himself the name Mane Burst; he thought it sounded cool. His cultivation had reached the late ancestral realm. He wasn't very famous in the Gray Land, but within the Mane Clan, he held considerable prestige.

This time, coming along with the Mane God Patriarch to join the fray, the one responsible for negotiating with the Dongfang Family was the Mane God Patriarch. Mane Burst acted as a general in the vanguard army.

He led his troops to explore the reality of the situation first. The Mane God Patriarch, with a larger army, was inspecting his domain accompanied and guided by the young members of the Ancient Dongfang Clan... because there was an agreement between both parties that if they could break through the ruins of the Chu Clan's royal family and cut off Chu Mo's head, this boundless land would belong to the Mane God Patriarch!

The Gray Land creatures... would finally be able to run rampant in the Tunnel one day. Even if the ancient clans might turn their backs and come to hunt them down in the future, by that time, the upper echelons of the Mane Clan would have long led the elite members to loot all the valuable things on this land.

Neither party trusted the other; there was no talk of trust, just a cooperation based on mutual benefit!

Mane Burst's name might sound a bit dim-witted, but in reality, he was no fool. He was well aware that in a critical moment, the Mane God Patriarch would not hesitate to abandon him. This was the usual practice among the Gray Land creatures, and he had long grown accustomed to it.

So he was very cautious, watching the two fools stand there celebrating, prompting Mane Burst to shout in anger, "Go deeper! I made you scouts, not foodies! Idiots! If you don't want to die, hurry up and delve deeper!"

The two creatures were startled by Mane Burst's frightful reputation and shuddered, then cautiously ventured further in.

The deeper they went, the richer the essence energy became. It was dense to the point of being almost unabsorbable!

Eventually, these two Gray Land creatures from the Mane Clan could grab a handful of essence energy just by reaching out!

They swallowed it down, feeling as though they could soar from delight.

"General! There's no danger!"

"General, it's very safe here!"

The two creatures released their divine sense, exploring billions of miles within the area, without sensing any crisis. They immediately relayed the message to Mane Burst.

Mane Burst cast his gaze toward a young man beside him, and said in a deep voice, "Didn't they say that Young Master Mo set up two flagpoles on this borderland? And then hung the heads of your clan's two Supreme ancestors on them? Why haven't I seen it?"

The young man replied, "This is clearly just a rumor spread by word of mouth. Given Chu Mo's realm, how could he possibly injure our clan's Supreme elders?"

Mane Burst sneered, then suddenly struck, giving the young man a harsh slap.

Smack!

The sound was sharp and crisp, directly stunning the young man.

He looked at Mane Burst angrily, "Why did you hit me?"

"You think I'm an idiot, don't you? Only you Humans are smart in this world, right?" Mane Burst's eyes shot out extremely dangerous gleams as he coldly bared his fangs at the young man, saying, "If that person were as simple as you say, would your family have been forcibly driven away by him alone? Damn you, little thing, just because your family is cooperating with us Mane Clan now, don't think you're safe. It's been a long time since I've tasted human! You look tender and juicy, must be delicious."

"You, you can't treat me like this!" The young man was furious, his face flushed, and a powerful ancestral realm aura erupted from his body.

"Hahahaha, little guy, can I consider your actions as a form of provocation?" Facing the young member of the Ancient Dongfang Clan with a powerful aura, Mane Burst laughed disdainfully, totally disregarding him. He calmly said, "I'm not hungry right now! If you're sensible, don't provoke me. Tell me clearly what you know about that Young Master Mo, just how strong he is. And what mysteries lie in this Chu Clan royal ruins! If you leave out a single word, I'll... take you first, then kill you!"

Mane Burst deliberately extended his long tongue, licking his lips, looking at the handsome young member of the Ancient Dongfang Clan with a wicked charm.

Listening to these vulgar words, the young member of the Ancient Dongfang Clan was so angry his eyes turned red, but he held back. Before coming, the elders had already told him this was an extremely dangerous mission, where he might die at the hands of the Chu Clan royals or be torn apart by these low-intelligence Gray Land creatures from the Mane Clan. For there often was no reason to be expected from these Gray Land creatures.

Yet he came without hesitation, as his hatred for Chu Mo had long surpassed life and death.

He was among the few Dongfang Clan members who had narrowly escaped when Chu Mo swept through their great city, so he had a relatively good understanding of Chu Mo's might. At this moment, he detailed Chu Mo's abilities to Mane Burst.

"Tell me the truth, were your two Supreme realm ancestors from the Ancient Dongfang Clan really beheaded by Young Master Mo and hung on the flagpoles?" Mane Burst was most concerned about this.

A single move to destroy an ancestral city's main hub required great power but not only the Supreme could achieve this. However, if someone could truly decapitate Supremes and hang their heads on flagpoles, it was beyond what creatures in the ancestral realm could achieve!

They wanted all the resources in this territory, but they hadn't gone mad! The warriors under their Mane Clan banner were expendable, but it still wanted to live well.

The young member of the Ancient Dongfang Clan said, "That's what's being said outside, but I haven't witnessed it myself, and I don't think it's true either!"

Mane Burst rubbed his head and sinisterly said to the young member of the Ancient Dongfang Clan, "You'd better pray you're telling the truth, because if anything happens, I'll be the first to kill you!"

With that, Mane Burst waved his large hand, "Tenth Legion, Ninth Legion... charge in first!"

Boom!

Boom!

Two terrifying auras burst forth from the void, unleashing immense killing intent.

Then, a staggering twenty million Gray Land creatures charged directly into the ruins of the Chu Clan royal grounds. They had long been coveting the endless vitality inside!

As for the danger... haven't those two guys still been hopping around alive? What should they fear?

After the two corps went in, Mane Burst waited for a long time. Still, no anomalies were detected. Frowning, he muttered, "Why does it feel like something's wrong? It shouldn't be this quiet, should it? Could it be that those people, knowing we're coming, have been scared off?"

Mane Burst knew the only thing that could frighten Tunnel cultivators about Gray Land creatures was their sheer numbers!

If ten million creatures couldn't win, they would deploy a hundred million! If a hundred million weren't enough, then a billion, a trillion... or even more!

Gray Land lacked everything, was desperately poor, but it never lacked living creatures!

This vanguard, with only about a dozen billion Gray Land creatures, was already considered very few.

What Mane God brought, those tens of trillions of Gray Land creatures, was truly terrifying. Even Supreme realm cultivators wouldn't dare clash head-on with them. That's why Mane God dared accept this mission.

A classic case of ants overwhelming an elephant!

Because these creatures from Gray Land were a terrifying swarm of ants!

At that moment, completely unknown to Mane Burst and all Gray Land creatures, several pairs of eyes were silently observing them.

The flagpoles were still there!

The heads of the two Supreme ancient ancestors on the flagpoles were still there too!

It's just that none of the creatures below could see them.

Chu Mo looked at Dongfang Hengtai and Dongfang Yunluo and smiled, saying, "Your descendants are quite promising!"
