Cultivation System: Stronger with Age-Chapter 786 - 318: Nine Great Fierce Beasts, Spiritual Beasts, and Qilin Spirit Mountain
The Ba Xia Race!
Lin Xuankong frowned and said, "The Blood-colored Mist Forbidden Land, is it within the territory of the Ba Xia Race?"
Lin Xuankong had seen some records of the Ba Xia Race in the tomes of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect.
This race, one of the Nine Great Fierce Beast Clans, is renowned for their cloud-swirling and mist-breathing powers, immense strength, and invincible defense. Not to mention their cloud-swirling, mist-breathing abilities, and immense strength, their invincible defense alone gives opponents of the same Realm headaches. This formidable defense, derived from their Talent Bloodline, makes even the Profound Yin Demon Sect’s Black Soul Demon Armor, heralded as the ’Absolute Defense,’ seem slightly inferior! 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
It is said that the Ba Xia Race’s formidable defense is so strong that even Immortal Artifacts struggle to breach it. Even if Earth Immortals, Demon Cultivators, and other Demons of the same Realm were to self-detonate beside them, they could hardly inflict any significant damage. Such terrifying defense makes even the other clans among the Nine Great Fierce Beast Clans hesitant to confront the Ba Xia Race.
If the Blood-colored Mist Forbidden Land is indeed within the Ba Xia Race’s territory, this will be quite troublesome!
The Cyan-forehead Qilin kicked its little hooves beside him and said, "Though the Blood-colored Mist Forbidden Land isn’t entirely within the Ba Xia Race’s territory, another part of it falls within the domain of the Vengeful Spirit Race. Compared to the Vengeful Spirit Race, the Ba Xia Race is at least somewhat open to communication. The fierce beasts of the Vengeful Spirit Race are among the Demon Races most hostile to the Human Race. If Mr. Mu wants to enter the Blood-colored Mist Forbidden Land through their territory, I’m afraid he’d have to fight a battle to the death with the Vengeful Spirit Race’s Demon Kings..."
The Vengeful Spirit Race... well, that Demon Race is completely beyond communication!
Lin Xuankong shook his head speechlessly, but soon an idea struck him. He turned to Cyan-forehead Qilin and White-forehead Qilin, asking with some confusion, "That can’t be right. Isn’t the Qilin Race one of the Four Great Spirit Beast Clans in the Ten Thousand Demon Realm? Don’t they stand alongside the Cyan Dragon Race, Black Tortoise Race, and Fire Phoenix Race as the strongest clans? Since you two are geniuses of the Qilin Race, how could the Ba Xia Race possibly stop you?"
Cyan-forehead Qilin glanced at Lin Xuankong and said somewhat helplessly, "In the eyes of those 200,000- to 300,000-year-old monsters of the Ba Xia Race, we two are merely young ones who’ve only lived for a few thousand years. They certainly won’t give us two Little Qilins any face. However, if we return to the Qilin Race territory and ask an Ancestor to step forward, those old monsters of the Ba Xia Race will definitely show the Qilin Race some respect. That would allow Sister Bai and me to enter the Blood-colored Mist Forbidden Land! The problem is, Mr. Mu, you aren’t a member of the Qilin Race! Those brutes from the Ba Xia Race will definitely not welcome an Earth Immortal of the Human Race into their territory! Most importantly, the Central Province Divine Dynasty Immortal Realm is about to engage in a major war with the Profound Yin Demon Sect, one that will affect the entire Immortal Realm. At a time like this, Mr. Mu, you absolutely cannot afford to fall out with the Ba Xia Race. If you were to incite conflict between the Human Race Immortal Realm and the Ten Thousand Demon Realm now, the Human Race Immortal Realm would not only have to face the threat from the Profound Yin Demon Sect but also hostility from the Ten Thousand Demon Realm. That would be a huge disaster!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Xuankong couldn’t help but recall a story about Wang Qizhen, the Sect Founder of the Yang Immortal Sect. He and dozens of fellow cultivators were once chased by bizarrely-shaped giant tortoises while treasure hunting at Boundaryless Mountain. It seems those bizarrely-shaped giant tortoises Wang Qizhen spoke of were demons of the Ba Xia Race!
But Wang Qizhen and his group only encountered Mortal Tier demons of the Ba Xia Race. When I enter the Ba Xia Race’s territory with Cyan-forehead Qilin and White-forehead Qilin, we’ll likely face their Immortal Tier demons, perhaps even powerful demons at the Top Demon King Level!
The crucial point, just as Cyan-forehead Qilin said, is that with the ongoing war between the Central Divine Dynasty and the Profound Yin Demon Sect, I definitely can’t afford a full-blown conflict with the Ba Xia Race in the Ten Thousand Demon Realm. If a war were to erupt between the Human Race Immortal Realm and the Ten Thousand Demon Realm, it would indeed be a massive problem!
After frowning in thought for a moment, Lin Xuankong couldn’t help but say, "Whatever happens, we absolutely cannot fight the Ba Xia Race at this critical juncture of the Immortal Demon War! However, we’re just passing through their territory to reach the Blood-colored Mist Forbidden Land. Those giant tortoises shouldn’t overreact, should they? Worst case, we can offer them some benefits, pay a toll... say, a few Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts?"
Upon hearing Lin Xuankong’s suggestion, both White-forehead Qilin and Cyan-forehead Qilin were left speechless. Cyan-forehead Qilin, nursing a headache, said, "Mr. Mu, oh, Mr. Mu, how can Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts seem so worthless in your hands! Do you have any idea how many Earth Immortals there are in our Central Province Divine Dynasty Immortal Realm? Nearly ninety percent of them don’t even possess a single Initial Tier Immortal Artifact! Furthermore, in the entire Central Province Divine Dynasty Immortal Realm, you’re probably the only one, Mr. Mu, who would casually offer several Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts as a mere toll. Besides you, even my master, Immortal Lord Luoshui, wouldn’t dream of casually gifting away several Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts!"
White-forehead Qilin also chimed in, "Mr. Mu, you may have quite a few Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts, but you painstakingly refined each one. Who knows how many failures it took before you successfully crafted a single Initial Tier Immortal Artifact? How can you just give them away so easily to the Ba Xia Race?"
