Chapter 681: Chapter 681: Forbidden Zone, Corpse Emperor Mountain

After receiving five hundred drops of Holy Blood, Lin Yi was fully confident that he could break through to the Sixth Level of Venerable.

Next, he planned to go into seclusion for a while, striving to elevate his strength to a new level!

By then, even if he were to face a Lower Realm Saint on his own, he was confident he could fight and defeat them!

…

The news of the great battle at Peacock Sacred Land quickly spread throughout the entire Demon Beast World, causing a stir across the land.

In this battle, the Peacock Saint Master became famous in one fight!

He overwhelmingly defeated two Upper Realm Old Demon Saints from the Golden Crow and Suanni clans, vanquished masters of several Royal Families such as the Green Bird, Devil Elephant, and Vajra Ape, and slew the lord of the Nine Netherworld Snake, Ming Konghai, collecting impressive battle achievements!

With the Peacock Saint Master’s heaven-defying combat power on display, he had already been acclaimed as the number one person beneath the Saint King within the Demon Beast World!

As such, the status of the Peacock Sacred Land greatly increased. It was no longer just a regular Royal Family but had become a top-tier Royal Family, a peer to the Imperial Families!

In this battle, the name Kong Linyun once again became famous!

It was said that before the Peacock Saint Master defeated the various clan Saints, Kong Linyun had battled the Netherworld Snake, Ming Konghai, and had not been defeated!

Such battle achievements were virtually like a myth among the younger generation!

With the identity of a young prodigy, he fought a battle against the Saint Master of a Royal Family—such an invincible figure!

Yet, many old monsters in the Demon Beast World were puzzled; although the Peacock Saint Master’s strength had increased dramatically, he still seemed inferior in front of the imperial powerhouses from the Golden Crow and Suanni clans!

Why were the Peacock Sacred Land able to drive back the two great Imperial Families this time, and why did the Golden Crow Demon Emperor and the Lion Demon Emperor, these two giant figures of the Demon Emperors, not make a move to punish the Peacock Saint Master?

This matter was baffling!

Could it be that there were even more powerful beings drawing the attention of these two major figures?

What could it be?

However, while rumors about the Peacock Sacred Land were attracting the attention of the entire Demon Beast World, in the northern reaches of the same world, there stood a dark region filled with an aura of death.

This place was called Corpse Emperor Mountain, situated in the Demon World, and was a well-known No Man’s Forbidden Zone within the Green Ruins Realm.

Yet today, outside Corpse Emperor Mountain, there was a strange Barrier enveloping the entire Yin Yang Mountain.

Suddenly, the void outside of Yin Yang Mountain twisted, and two figures appeared one after the other. If anyone were there, they would surely recognize them as the Golden Crow Emperor and the Suanni Lion Emperor, two of the giants within the Demon Beast World!

At this moment, both these giants from the Demon Clan were looking at the forbidden area in front of them with extremely serious expressions, “Recently, a Barrier has appeared around Corpse Emperor Mountain, isolating it from the outside world; it must be brewing a great conspiracy.”

“The Seal of the Vigorous Corpse Emperor has lasted for a thousand years, and it may already be loosening. We were preparing to enter to investigate these past few days, but this Barrier has unexpectedly appeared, barring us from approaching Corpse Emperor Mountain.”

“This is no coincidence. Recently, the Green Ruins Realm has been unsettled. Although the Undying Blood Clan’s rebellion in the Eastern Domain was suppressed by the Ancestor Dragon Sacred Dynasty, disturbances from the Outer Realm Evil Clan have emerged in other domains, indicating that the entire Green Ruins Realm may soon be in chaos.”

“The Corpse Emperor Mountain is the sealing ground of the Vigorous Corpse Emperor. If the Pi Jue Corpse Clan is trying to make a comeback, they will certainly need to free the Vigorous Corpse Emperor.”

“However, I’ve already investigated, and the power of this Barrier is strong. Even if we joined forces, we couldn’t break through forcibly. With this Barrier in place, I fear no one can enter Corpse Emperor Mountain or take a step beyond the line.”

“That may not be the case.”

The Suanni Lion Emperor waved his hand, “This Barrier around Corpse Emperor Mountain is only effective against those above the Saint Realm. It doesn’t have much effect on those below.”

The Golden Crow Emperor’s eyes lit up slightly, “You mean, we can send those below the Saint Realm to explore the inside of Corpse Emperor Mountain?”

“Exactly.”

The Suanni Lion Emperor nodded, “Summon the top experts below the Saint Realm from all clans to enter Corpse Emperor Mountain!”

“But Corpse Emperor Mountain is such a dangerous place. I doubt many will comply with the summons.”

The Golden Crow Emperor shook his head.

“With immense rewards, there will surely be brave men.”

The Suanni Lion Emperor said, “As long as the rewards offered are generous enough, there will be those willing to take the risk.”

“Besides, this matter is related to the safety of the entire Demon Beast World. Each clan should send their strong warriors to Corpse Emperor Mountain to contribute their strength!”

The Golden Crow Emperor nodded, “After returning, we will immediately issue the Demon Emperor Order and notify all the clans!”

“And those hidden Royal Families that enjoy peace from behind the scenes, making us two deal with the trivial matters out in the open, now that the Green Ruins Realm is on the brink of chaos, it’s time they contributed.”

The Demon Beast World was not limited to the Golden Crow and the Suanni clans. There were other Royal Families descending from Ancient Times hidden in the background, whose strengths were not weaker than those of the Golden Crow and Suanni clans!

…

Peacock Sacred Land.

Inside a cave dwelling.

Lin Yi was seated cross-legged on a stone bed, his body radiating a mighty energy that evolved into numerous shadows of Suanni—a manifestation of the Suanni Lion Sacred Blood’s power!

Of those one thousand drops of Holy Blood, five hundred drops of Golden Crow Holy Blood went to the Peacock Saint Master, while the remaining five hundred drops of Suanni Lion Sacred Blood were entrusted to Lin Yi!

After all, the Golden Crow Holy Blood was more beneficial to the Peacock Clan. As for Lin Yi, not being a true Peacock but a human, there was actually not much difference for him between the Suanni Lion Sacred Blood and the Golden Crow Holy Blood.
