Yin Xinzhao had never been to the Blood Lake before, so he naturally didn’t know about Black Crow Divine Monarch’s strength. However, Pei Wen Xuan know, but for some reason, he didn’t have any intention of reminding him. His mind raced as he thought about how to protect himself.
A cultivator whispered in Yin Xinzhao’s ear, causing Yin Xinzhao’s eyes to burn with murderous intent, “Disciple of Great Thousand Blood Land? A mere Second Class Force’s disciple dares to spout nonsense here? Get lost!”
Black Crow Divine Monarch had seized the body of Zhou Yi from the Great Thousand Blood Land, so the person who had whispered in Yin Xinzhao’s ear had obviously recognized this face.
Black Crow Divine Monarch turned his head and chuckled, “Boy, what did you say? Say it again?”
Yin Xinzhao became even more furious, “If you dare speak rudely again, I’ll take your dog life!”
Black Crow Divine Monarch couldn’t help nodding, “This Monarch has not appeared in public for many years, but I didn’t know that young people nowadays were so bold.” As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and gently pointed towards Yin Xinzhao.
Yin Xinzhao didn’t put Black Crow Divine Monarch in his eyes. After all, in his opinion, Black Crow Divine Monarch was just a disciple from a second class force, so there was no need for him to pay too much attention to him. If he really provoked 'Black Crow Divine Monarch' and killed him here, the Great Thousand Blood Land wouldn’t dare to even fart.
But when Black Crow Divine Lord pointed out with his finger, he felt that something was wrong. A thick aura of death suddenly enveloped him, as if he was about to die.
A dark red light rapidly expanded in front of him, obscuring his vision and filling his senses.
Before Yin Xinzhao could realize what was happening, he suddenly heard a light cracking sound from his waist, and the identity token hanging on his waist suddenly turned into dust. As the dust flew about, a stream of light flashed from the identity token and slashed towards the red light.
As the red light broke, the stream of light did not slow down and slashed towards Black Crow Divine Monarch.
Black Crow Divine Monarch had suffered such a loss before, and in the palace in the middle of the lake, he had been directly killed by Pei Wen Xuan’s identity token. At this moment, how could he repeat the same mistake? The moment he attacked, he lightly tapped his foot and his figure floated backwards. Although his figure had drifted away, he had left behind a blood shadow that was similar to his figure. It was like a clone and its aura was no different from his own.
The stream of light struck the blood shadow, causing it to turn into a pool of blood and gore.
After cutting this blood shadow, the stream of light also disappeared.
The entire scene was dead silent. Besides Yang Kai, Pei Wen Xuan, and Qu Huachang, everyone else, no matter where they came from, all of them stared at Black Crow Divine Monarch in horror.
Yin Xinzhao’s face was as pale as paper! Even now, he still didn’t understand what had just happened. All he knew was that the identity token his Master had spent a great deal of effort to refine had been activated and his life-saving trump card had been used up.
This identity token would only be activated when his life was in danger. In other words, if it weren’t for the light barrier just now, he would already be a corpse.
What happened? Yin Xinzhao’s thoughts were in a mess.
“Are all the disciples of the Cave Heaven now so shameless? How boring,” Black Crow Divine Monarch shook his head. Before, he had wanted to kill Pei Wen Xuan, but now he didn’t even try to kill Yin Xinzhao. All of them had been blocked by the Divine Abilities activated by the other party’s identity token. He turned to look at Yang Kai and smiled, “These people are much worse than you.”
Among all the young talents present, the only one who caught his eye was Yang Kai. Only Yang Kai could truly fight him and escape from his pursuit.
Yang Kai coldly snorted.
“Your excellency, who are you?” Yin Xinzhao no longer dared to underestimate Black Crow Divine Monarch. Someone who could almost kill him with a single blow, how could it be someone who had been cultivated by the Great Thousand Blood Land? Ding Yi’s performance just now had certainly shocked him, but it was far less terrifying than this moment.
Originally, he had thought that the opening of the Blood Monster Cave Heaven was a place where he could display his talents and dominate others, but who would have thought that the people he met here were all more powerful than the last? [Hoogs: Haha, do you realize how weak you are now without your backing?]
Black Crow Divine Monarch turned his head to look at Pei Wen Xuan and smiled slightly, “Who am I? Why don’t you ask your companion?” What he said was not convincing, but what others said was different.
Many people looked towards Pei Wen Xuan.
Pei Wen Xuan stood far away, his aura ready to burst out at any moment, as if he was ready to flee at any moment. Seeing Black Crow Divine Monarch look over, his heart tightened and he almost fled.
Unexpectedly, Black Crow Divine Monarch smiled and said, “Rest assured, since you have come here, I will not attack you.”
Pei Wen Xuan didn’t know whether to believe him or not, but on second thought, if Black Crow Divine Monarch appeared here and wanted to kill him, he probably wouldn’t be able to escape.
Making up his mind, he relaxed quite a bit and said solemnly, “This is Black Crow Divine Monarch.”
“Divine Monarch?” Everyone was shocked, almost doubting their own ears. Since ancient times, only High Rank Open Heaven had the qualifications to be called Divine Monarch. This Blood Monster Cave Heaven wouldn't even accept Open Heaven master to enter it, so how could there be a High Rank Open Heaven master here? Moreover, no one had ever heard of Black Crow Divine Monarch.
Pei Wen Xuan said, “The Divine Monarch was imprisoned here by the Blood Monster Divine Monarch. His Divine Soul was not destroyed and he seized the Great Thousand Blood Land's disciple's body to be reborn.”
Everyone felt their scalps go numb as Ba Liang exclaimed, “Really?”
Pei Wen Xuan nodded solemnly.
No one doubted his words. After all, everyone had witnessed the scene just now. Besides a Divine Monarch who had possessed another’s body and be reborn, who else had the ability to kill Yin Xinzhao in one blow?
In an instant, not only did the Cave Heaven Paradise disciples look towards Black Crow Divine Monarch vigilantly, even the people standing beside Yang Kai became nervous.
From Black Crow Divine Monarch’s actions just now, it was clear that this fellow was not some kind-hearted person. It was highly likely that he was a temperamental character who would kill without hesitation.
Once this kind of person’s murderous intent erupted, no one present would be able to resist.
“Don’t be nervous,” Black Crow Divine Monarch said with a smile, “This Monarch did not painstakingly gather all of you here to kill you.”
“You gathered us here?” Yang Kai frowned.
“Naturally,” Black Crow Divine Monarch turned his head, “If it wasn’t for this Monarch taking action, do you think any of you would have been able to safely arrive here? The many dangers and restrictions along the way were all removed by this Monarch.”
Yang Kai didn’t doubt his words too much. His journey here had indeed been smooth and unobstructed, so logically speaking, it shouldn’t have been like this. Now, he realized that Black Crow Divine Monarch had eliminated all the dangers along the way. No wonder no one had been able to enter the depths of Blood Monster Cave Heaven for so many years, but suddenly so many people had come this time.
“I have a question to ask you,” Ding Yi suddenly said.
“Ask,” Black Crow Divine Monarch looked towards him.
Ding Yi said, “Sir Divine Monarch, after you reincarnate, you should focus on cultivating. Why are you gathering all of us here? What does Sir Divine Monarch want?”
This question hit the nail on the head and everyone wanted to know the answer.
Black Crow Divine Monarch let out a low laugh, appearing somewhat sinister, “Naturally, it’s for the Blood Monster Divine Palace. Otherwise, why do you think this Monarch would waste so much effort?”
“Blood Monster Divine Palace!”
A series of exclamations rang out as everyone’s eyes burned with excitement. It was rumored that in the deepest depths of Blood Monster Cave Heaven, there was a Blood Monster Divine Palace where the inheritance of Blood Monster Divine Monarch were hidden. If anyone could find the Blood Monster Divine Palace and pass the test of Blood Monster Divine Monarch, they would be able to inherit everything inside the Blood Monster Cave Heaven!
However, the rumors were only rumors, and no one had ever verified them. After all, for so many years, no one had even found the Blood Monster Divine Palace, so how could they prove it?
At this moment, Black Crow Divine Monarch had mentioned the Blood Monster Divine Palace!
“The Blood Monster Divine Palace really exists? Are you trying to deceive us?” Yang Kai looked at him suspiciously.
Black Crow Divine Monarch chuckled, “The Blood Monster Divine Palace naturally exists, and I’m not afraid to tell you that the Blood Monster Divine Palace is right in front of you, in this mountain valley.” As he spoke, he pointed downwards.
Everyone turned to look, but there was no sign of the Blood Monster Divine Palace. Although the valley was verdant and the scenery was extraordinary, there was no trace of a palace.
Black Crow Divine Monarch calmly said, “If the restriction isn’t broken, the Divine Palace won’t appear. If we want to find the Blood Monster Divine Palace, we must break the restriction!”
Yang Kai asked solemnly, “What does this have to do with you gathering us here?”
Black Crow Divine Monarch said, “If this Monarch's strength hadn’t fallen… no, as long as this Monarch had ten percent of his cultivation power when he was alive, breaking this restriction would naturally not be a problem. However, this Monarch's current situation is something all of you can see, the ability this Monarch can display is truly limited. Although this Monarch knows the mysteries of this place’s restriction, if this Monarch wants to break it alone, it will be somewhat difficult, so I need the help of many people!”
Hearing this, everyone suddenly understood why he had gathered so many people here. This kind of existence that required many people to work together to break the restriction was not uncommon, so his words were not a problem.
“One more point,” Black Crow Divine Monarch’s expression became slightly solemn, “There should be a Monster Beast guarding this place. If this Monarch is not mistaken, it should be a Seventh Order Monster Beast!”
“Seventh Order!” Everyone cried out in surprise. Along the way, they had more or less killed some Monster Beasts, and all of them had their own judgements regarding the level of Monster Beasts. A Fifth Order Monster Beast was equivalent to a Half Open Heaven, a Sixth Order Monster Beast was at least equivalent to a Low Rank Open Heaven, so wouldn’t a Seventh Order Monster Beast be able to display a Mid Rank Open Heaven strength?
With so many people present, who could defeat such a Monster Beast? Even Black Crow Divine Monarch himself would not be able to defeat it.
“The reason why you can’t detect the existence of that Monster Beast is because it is in a deep sleep, but if we starts to break the restriction, it will definitely wake up. So, besides needing someone to help break the restriction, I also need someone to stop that Seventh Order Monster Beast.”
“Are you joking?” Yang Kai sneered. When he fought with the Golden Baboon King in Ding Feng City, he didn’t gain any advantage. The Golden Baboon King was a peak Sixth Order Monster Beast, and it was also heavily injured. If the Golden Baboon King was that powerful, how powerful would a Seventh Order Monster Beast be?
With everyone’s strength, encountering a Seventh Order Monster Beast was simply courting death.
