Chapter 1150: Not from Hansworth
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Just the recent scent of blood would inevitably attract other spirit beasts.
Braydon Neal walked on the grassy field, handed the small black cat to Jayven Neal, and whispered, “Consider this little black cat a gift for you.”
Jayven: “???”
After a moment of silence, Jayven smiled bitterly and said, “Brother, I can’t subdue it. I lack the strength to control such a powerful spirit beast.”
“No worries!”
Braydon was next to him, making sure the small black cat wouldn’t harm Jayven.
Then, Jayven reluctantly took the small black cat, his face somewhat pale.
The Double-Tailed Demon Cat stared with wide eyes at Jayven, making people’s hearts shiver.
Sapphire Neal’s eyes showed a hint of worry, feeling that the small black cat might not be easily tamed.
Skylar Neal remained calm. He said, “Spirit beasts are beings with awakened intelligence. Even if it doesn’t want to be tamed, it will only wait for an opportunity to escape and won’t harm Jayven.”
After that, Skylar lifted the small black cat by the back of its neck with his left hand.
The small black cat immediately meowed, looking dejected. It sensed that this human with the ghost mask was also a terrifying existence, at least capable of easily taking its life.
Jayven whispered, “Skylar, it seems a bit afraid of you too.”
“Spirit beasts naturally fear strong individuals.”
Sapphire was conflicted, apparently unaware of Skylar’s true strength.
As Braydon walked ahead, he seemed to sense something and smiled faintly, saying, “It seems that there are many spirit beasts in the wilderness.”
“Of course, there are many spirit beasts in the wild. There are also those disguised plant demons, which are even more terrifying. Moreover, there are indigenous people in the ruins.”
Jayven muttered quietly.
Skylar inquired, “What are plant demons?”
“In the plant system, some spirit species gain consciousness after flowering. They are extremely terrifying. Moreover, the veins and ore of spirit stones born from the earth and heaven in the ruins have long been mined by previous generations. Most of the spirit stone mines are nurtured by plant demons.”
Sapphire explained the horror of plant demons.
Plant demons included all plant-based demonic beings.
They rooted themselves in the earth, absorbed the power of the land, and absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, nurturing spirit veins under their roots to form a spirit stone mine.
The more powerful the plant demon, the larger the spirit stone mine it nurtured.
Encountering a plant demon was a death sentence for ordinary martial artists.
Because even the weakest plant demons were at the supreme pinnacle realm.
Wild spirit beasts were terrifying.
Ordinary martial artists who encountered plant demons were undoubtedly doomed.
Moreover, plant demons excelled at disguising themselves, growing in the jungle, posing as a large tree. If it weren’t for martial artists who had opened their spiritual apertures, most people would not sense their presence.
Braydon suddenly interjected, “Who are the indigenous people?”
“The ancient human race. Generations of them have been multiplying and thriving here. Once, a powerful individual captured some of these indigenous people and found that the internal structure of their bodies is similar to ours but different.”
Jayven seemed to recall something.
In the ruins, there were indigenous people, the ancient human race.
They inherently harbored hostility toward outsiders, making peaceful coexistence impossible.
Moreover, these indigenous people did not stay silent in the ruins. They had attempted several times to break through the 14th ancient city, using the entrances and exits to reach the surface.
Allowing these indigenous people to ascend to the surface would cause global chaos.
The indigenous people living in the ruins seemed to follow the law of the jungle.
The weak die.
The strong survive!
If these indigenous people were allowed to enter the outside world, it would probably be a disaster for the global human population. More importantly, Braydon learned from Jayven that these indigenous people worship deities!
Within the ruins, the indigenous people all worship deities. This belief was not allowed in the outside world. Modern martial artists who worshipped deities resemble adherents to the supremacy of divine authority. In such a case, what about national authority? What would the ideals upheld by Braydon’s generation, rooted in the Northern Army, become?
Different ideologies could not coexist!
Braydon calmly asked, “Are the ruins’ indigenous people descendants of Hansworth?”
“No, they have the same appearance as us. However, all major powers have long studied these indigenous people. Their bodies have undergone spirit crystallization, and their internal organs are completely different from ours.”
Jayven answered.
Braydon wasn’t interested in learning more.
Since they weren’t descendants of Hansworth, then they would be killed!
Braydon’s thin lips moved slightly as he said, “Skylar, send a message to Westley and the others. When encountering indigenous people in the wilderness, kill them all. Adherents of divine authority must not be spared; they must be eradicated.”
“Understood!” Skylar noted this down.
Sapphire was somewhat puzzled and asked, “Braydon, Skylar, do you have a grudge against these indigenous people?”
“No!” Braydon shook his head gently.
Jayven questioned, “Then why do you harbor such animosity toward them?”
“You’ll understand in the future!” Skylar responded casually, gazing ahead.
A pack of green wolves appeared, numbering up to a hundred.
They seemed to be attracted by the scent of blood.
“Meow!”
The small black cat’s fur stood on end, and it showed a fierce look in its eyes.
The path forward was blocked by the wolf pack, consisting of over a hundred ice-cold-eyed green wolves, baring their teeth with ferocious expressions. Drool dripped from their mouths, as if they had set their sights on Braydon and his group.
“Meow, meow!”
The small black cat in Jayven’s arms gestured with its small paws toward Braydon.
Was it trying to act cute?
It also seemed to be expressing how brutal the wolf pack was.
When the wolf king appeared within the pack, Braydon seemed to understand why the wolf pack had appeared, blocking their way.
The wolf king was a brownish-green color, over five meters in length, with a majestic and extraordinary physique, exuding a fierce aura.
It had a scar over its left eye, as if it had been wounded by claws, causing it to lose one eye.
Braydon couldn’t help but look at the small black cat’s paws.
It seemed that these two spirit beasts had fought before.
Braydon chuckled and said, “Little black cat, you really know how to cause trouble!”
“Meow, meow!”
The small black cat gestured with its paws, understanding Braydon’s words.
It seemed to be accusing the wolf pack of its brutality, constantly bullying it.
Skylar stepped forward and whispered, “Braydon, let me handle them.”
“Let Jayven handle it!”
As an older brother, Braydon didn’t unconditionally protect his younger brother, Jayven. On the contrary, Jayven was a man and a martial artist. He should experience battles!
Even though Jayven was very young, certain experiences were essential.
A martial artist should not lack the spirit of combat.
Jayven stuttered, “Braydon, this wolf king is at the high-level pinnacle realm. I…”
Before he could finish speaking, Jayven was almost in tears.
A low-level pinnacle facing a high-level pinnacle was suicide.
It was worth noting that the win rate for spirit beasts against humans of the same level was over 80%!
This horrifying win rate indicated that spirit beasts could sweep human martial artists within the same level.
As for why the win rate was 80%, it was because human martial artists of the same level also included invincible individuals.
