Chapter 335: River Monster
After Li Xianyu’s blood flew into the blood pool, the line of blood stopped inching up. Instead, it rushed straight into the peak, and the gap between the two stone gates was filled by that line of blood.
This result was unexpected to everyone. At the next moment, the expression of surprise covered everyone’s face. After the surprise came excitement. The surging mood made them ignore the irrationality of the phenomenon that just happened.
For example, why did Li Xianyu’s blood force the originally slowly increasing line of blood to shoot to the top? Some people might have doubts, but with the heavy creaking sound when the stone gate was being opened, all their doubts were insignificant.
Li Xianyu stared at the wound that had already healed on his fingertip. Was it because he had consumed the meat of evolution? Or did his blood hold special significance to the Great Deities Palace?
He knew that his blood had some issues, such as the miraculous healing ability. The healing power of his blood was not only useful for himself, but also effective for others. This was by no means the abilities of the Li family. He had always suspected that it has something to do with his father, Li Wuxiang, but there was no evidence.
But now it seemed like the self-healing power really had something to do with the Great Deities Palace. What else did Li Wuxiang bring out that time from the Great Deities Palace?
As he was thinking, he felt a nudge. The long-legged beauty whispered, “What are you thinking? It’s time to go in.”
Li Xianyu returned to his senses and found that the demon descendants around him were rushing into the already opened stone gate as if they were at the subway station at seven o’clock in the morning. But even then, the spacious stone gates did not make it seem very crowded.
Behind the stone gate was a heavy fog, with visibility less than 10 meters. Even with the enhanced eyesight of demon descendants, they could at most see up to 30 or 40 meters. Any further and it was just a blur.
The thick fog was like a solidified cloud, floating quietly in the air, blocking the line of sight.
“There’s a faint stench.” God of Food sniffed.
Li Xianyu was a little stunned, and he sniffed, but he did not notice the peculiar smell. He knew immediately that it was because he was not proficient enough in the unique skill of “recognizing women by their scent”.
In the face of insufficient vision, the major forces all stopped. But those who did not have any factions were just like beggars who saw the golden mountain and couldn’t wait to rush into the fog.
Plop...
There were a few sounds of people dropping into water, followed by heart-wrenching screams.
“There’s water. Be careful. There’s water ahead.” There was a shout in the crowd.
The Chen family tacitly stepped out and formed a line. They took a deep breath and blew out the air together. All of a sudden, a strong wind formed and the mist shook violently. The mist was originally a frozen oil painting, but now it seemed to have come alive.
Among the seven surnames, the Chen family was known for their manipulation of the winds, as they have the ability to control the airflow.
The thick fog spread out layer by layer, and the air pressure pushed the thick fog out of the stone gate, rushing to the outside world.
The Chen family all worked together to clear out a broad field of vision with a visibility of up to 100 meters, and the scene ahead appeared in the eyes of the demon descendants.
A huge black river is in front of them, and the fog floated on the river.
“The Black Water River?” Li Xianyu whispered. The dark river reminds him of a famous river in The Journey to the West.
“There’s a path!” Cui Hua pointed to the front and stated.
Facing the stone gate, which was in front of all the people, there was a 30-meter wide road. It was suspended on the river, but no one could see how long it went. The end of the path went to the deep fog.
“The Great Deities Palace is at the end of the road.” Someone guessed.
An inexplicable emotion was brewing in the crowd. After a moment of silence, the emotion named greed reached its peak. Dozens of factionless demon descendants took the lead and rushed on the broad and flat road.
God of Food walked to the entrance of the road, drew out a short knife, and knocked the tip of the knife on the ground. The same dark road was as though it was cast out of black gold. It had the luster of metal and was solid and sturdy. Yet the short knife that could cut through metals like butter left not even a scratch.
God of Food squatted by the river with the knife. He put the tip of the knife into the river, stirred it, and lifted it up and smelled it.
“What did you find?” Black God walked to the river and squatted down side by side with God of Food.
“You smell it.” God of Food lifted the tip of the knife to Black God’s nose. The latter took a sniff and shook his head. “There is a strange smell, but I can’t describe it.”
God of Food did not answer, but looked at the back of the more and more distant factionless people, and sneered. “This group of guys who are greedy for money, couldn’t they calm down and look around? Neither the seven big families nor the Taoist and Buddhist Association moved. These little things are just testing the path for us.”
The major forces were truly scheming. They released the news of the location of the Great Deities Palace, which attracted all the demon descendants in the surrounding areas. They were not only used as a large blood bank reserve for blood sacrifices but also had pawns to explore the way.
Ironically, the factionless demon descendants and the small forces were not only willing to be cannon fodder, but they were also thankful to them for sharing the Great Deities Palace. It was a scam of a trade that some of these underdogs were really willing to take part in.
With a swift movement, White God hugged Black God’s shoulders, she bumped into his body to lean forward, causing him to nearly fall into the river. She put her arms around her man’s neck and said with a smile, “God of Food, have you found anything?”
Li Xianyu, who happened to be standing behind the couple was struck with jealousy. Deep down, he was quite envious. After all, they were husband and wife. There was nothing wrong with showing affection in public.
On the other hand, although there were so many girls in his harem, all of them were untouchable. Firstly, Great-Grandma and Hua Yang were elders, one was an empress dowager and the other was a grand empress dowager. Cui Hua was a cat. While she was in her human form he could at least take advantage of her a little bit, but in reality, any relationship between them was something that couldn’t be rushed.
The long-legged beauty was more “bitchy”. She was always flirting with him, and just based on their vague relationship she was always asking for money and contribution points. But if he were to want her to jump onto his back, hug his neck and hook onto his waist with her legs, it would be merely impossible.
In San Wu’s words, this kind of silly girl, any man with a little conscience, would not take advantage of her.
He was the kind of male lead in the legend, who seemed to live a fulfilling life, but in fact was empty, lonely and cold.
“There is a fishy smell in the water. It’s the excretion or secretion of some kind of organism. And there are many, many of them,” God of Food stated.
White God’s willow eyebrow lightly flicked. “There is something in the water?”
“The Great Deities Palace is a closed small world that has existed for endless years, what could possibly survive in this closed Great Deities Palace?” Black God said in a deep voice.
God of Food said, “Believe my sense of smell, although it is inconceivable, since the Great Deities Palace is related to the ancient demon, it can’t be judged by common sense. Lightning King’s judgment was right for Baoze to have only sent us and 40 senior employees.”
Li Xianyu eyebrows jumped, “Could the ancient demons be hiding underwater?” He glanced at the dark and peaceful river, which was dead and immobile. The river was like a black and bright mirror.
People with thalassophobia (fear of deep waters), like him, were always afraid of a monster like a water monster or a dragon bursting out from the river.
As if to verify the words of Li Xianyu, the calm water in the distance suddenly bubbled. Then, the waves rose, and a ferocious and terrible beast leaped out of the river.
...
The moonlight was bright, coating the overlapping mountain ranges in the distance with a layer of silver lacquer.
Li Peiyun stood in the distance, looking at the cliff on the west side of the mountain peak. Not long ago, there suddenly appeared a mist, which seemed to open the door of the fairyland. Now the mist was gone, but the wisps of mist were still coming out of the cliff.
He looked at the right where the guardians of the Great Demons Alliance stood. Led by the Emperor, they all changed their appearances. The Emperor took off the silver alloy face mask and showed a plain face.
Li Peiyun was very curious about the appearance of the Emperor. His intuition told him that she was an unimaginable beauty.
The Great Demons Alliance was a cult with a sensitive identity. It couldn’t enter the Great Deities Palace with Baoze’s people, so they traded a piece of the meat of evolution and saved Li Peiyun for his ticket.
To his left was a group of overseas forces, among which was the Aoki family of the island country. During the action of exposing the crime of Taoist Reverend, the Aoki family helped Li Zhu and Li Peiyun. This testification was part of the deal for tickets to enter the Great Deities Palace.
In addition, there was the Green Family from the United States Dawn Alliance. Dawn Alliance was one of the three demon descendant forces in the United States. They were equivalent to Taoism or Buddhism in the native community and had a huge influence in the US. And the Green Family was a big shareholder in the Dawn alliance.
The leader of the Green family was a big man with black tattoos on his bare head and silver nose rings on his nose. His name was Wright Green, the top S-class, the famous expert of the Green family.
Only a dozen people came to the Green family, but all of them were S-class, and one of them had strength on par with Wright Green.
Two top S-level and twelve ordinary S-level. The Green family must be really determined to get the treasures of the Great Deities Palace. But why didn’t they look for Baoze? Instead, they look for me. With the Green family’s financial resources, it is definitely not because my ticket here is cheaper, Li thought. He glanced over the Green family and looked at the demon descendants of the Carpe family in France. The Green family’s lineup had been very luxurious, but the Carpe family was not any weaker.
The Carpe family was a very prominent aristocrat family in France. It once ruled France for more than 300 years. It was called the Carpe Dynasty in French history, which was equivalent to the Aisin Gioro family of the Qing Dynasty.
Only when the throne of the Carpe family was replaced by their branches, the family gradually withdrew from the stage of history. Yet they were still aristocrats and have great influence in the demon descendant community of Europe.
The leader of Carpe Family’s team was a hot woman, Roxanne Carpe, who was famous in Europe. Together with Victoria of the Association of Superpowered Beings, they were called the Valkyries of Europe and America. However, Victoria’s cultivation was slightly inferior to hers.
Then, Li Peiyun looked at the people of the Kashub family from Germany. The lineup was no worse than the first two. The Kashub family was nobility in the kingdom of Prussia and also had a long history.
Next to the Prussian family is the Anderson family from Russia. The Anderson family was related to the Tsar. Before the October Revolution, this family belonged to the relatives of Russia nobility. After the great revolution, it lurked and hid behind the scenes activity, secretly controlling the finances of Russia.
At this moment, Li Peiyun was surrounded by a group of huge forces that could sweep across the whole blood community. With the remnants of the Ancient Gods Clan such as the God of War around him, they could probably fend off the Baoze’s entire force with ease.
A few days ago, this force came to Li Peiyun and was willing to pay a price to borrow the key of the Great Deities Palace. It was very extravagant and they promised him seven to eight magic weapons and gifted him 200 million U.S. dollars on the spot. Li Peiyun’s family abroad received an additional $200 million in promissory notes within five minutes of the deal.
Li Peiyun felt that he could not find a reason to refuse. He was not interested in money, but his family overseas needed money. It was because of him that they left their hometown and went abroad. They needed a lot of money to build their base of operation in other countries.
It’s understandable that the Great Demon Alliance boarded my car to the Great Deities Palace. But why did these forces in China want to come along too? They don’t want to go in with Baoze comfortably but preferred to sneak in like me? They were from different countries, but they all carried a similar box, what’s in it? These guys might be cooperating, Li Peiyun thought.
Several foreign forces had a large rectangular box, two meters long and forty centimeters wide.
Aware of Li Peiyun’s eyes, people of different families react differently to his gaze. The Green family frowned. The Carpe family smiled, and that Valkyrie who gave him a wink. The Prussian aristocracy was emotionless, while the Anderson family of Russia met him with cold eyes.
With so many top S-class in China now, I should find a chance to fight them, Li Peiyun thought to himself as he responded to several big families with his usual cold face. Finally, he focused on a woman with a dark complexion and Southeast Asian yellow characteristics.
It was a young woman with a veil on her face, but what was amazing was that she was carrying a newborn baby in her arms.
The baby was wrapped in swaddling clothes, sleeping peacefully, and there seemed to be nothing out of the ordinary. However, in such a scene, a woman holding a newborn baby was the biggest issue in itself.
Li Peiyun only knew that this woman was from Thailand, and she exchanged 30 million U.S. dollars and a rare Blood Jade Bug for the “right to use” the key to his Great Deities Palace.
“If you are not in a hurry, I propose to wait a little longer,” Li Peiyun said.
He didn’t want to go in now. The Taoist and Buddhist Associations regarded him as a thorn in the eye and Baoze regarded him as a wanted criminal. If he were to go in too early, he would meet them head-on.
It was hard to see what the others would do, but at least Li Xianyu, that son of a b*tch, would instruct his Great-Grandma to beat him.
Unexpectedly, his proposal was unanimously accepted by everyone.
It was understandable for the Great Demons Alliance to agree, as they were even more wanted than himself, but how can these overseas forces also appear to be furtive?
