“I don’t know!” Kaitlyn Houston shook her head before continuing.
“The Demonic Beasts are very powerful, especially the Beast King. He should have the strength of a ninth-rank Heavenly Empyrean Realm. Princess and Lord Josiah Shaw are no match for him, even if they join forces.”
“Lord Josiah Shaw was killed by the Demonic Beasts while trying to save the princess. His soul was also devoured by them.”
“The young master of the Holy Sect is dead?” Stout paused, and Billy’s face showed a hint of surprise.
“Yes!” Kaitlyn Houston’s expression showed a hint of sorrow.
“Not only him, but everyone from our Imperial Clan and the Holy Sect who came here, except for me and the princess, are all dead.”
“That’s terrible,” Stout couldn’t help but comment.
It seems like there’s no way out of this!
Out of the four hundred people who entered, it’s estimated that only a few of them are left, and I don’t know if those few people at the entrance are still alive.
“Everyone from the Imperial Clan, except for you two, should be dead,” Kaitlyn Houston added.
“I tried contacting them with a sound transmission talisman, but there was no response. The same goes for those at the entrance.”
“Alright!” Stout replied before asking, “Why did the people from the Emperor Clan attack you here? Didn’t they follow the Demonic Beasts to the tower?”
“At first, the Demonic Beasts killed some members of the Emperor Clan. Several mid-stage Heavenly Empyrean Realm experts from the Emperor Clan died at their hands,” Kaitlyn Houston responded.
“Dayton Krueger knew he couldn’t match the Demonic Beasts, so he willingly became their servant by giving them his Soulbrand.”
“The Demonic Beasts were in a hurry to enter the tower, so they had Dayton Krueger lead an attack on me, the other members of the Imperial Clan, and the Holy Sect. They took the princess with them.”
“I see!” Stout shrugged his shoulders. “The Crown Prince of the Emperor Clan knows how to adapt to the situation.”
“Besides the Beast King, are there any other powerful Demonic Beasts?” Billy asked.
“Yes!” Kaitlyn Houston nodded.
“In addition to the Beast King, there are four late-stage Heavenly Empyrean Realm Demonic Beasts, including two eighth-rank Heavenly Empyrean Realm and two seventh-rank Heavenly Empyrean Realm. The princess and Lord Josiah Shaw killed the two seventh-rank Heavenly Empyrean Realm Demonic Beasts.”
“The Demonic Beasts here are not only powerful but also numerous. I estimate there are at least tens of thousands of them,” Kaitlyn Houston said with a grave expression.
“Is that true?” Stout clicked his tongue. “No wonder none of the previous people who entered made it out alive.”
As they continued their conversation, the three of them hurried forward. Before long, they arrived at the peak of Fog Mountain.
“Boss, look! There’s really a tower down there!” Stout pointed down to a building with a tower rising from it.
“Yes!” Billy nodded slightly. “Don’t let your guard down!”
Before his words could finish, figures flew up from the forest below.
There were at least a thousand of them, led by a completely humanoid woman. Apart from her, a small portion were half-human and half-beast, while the rest were various kinds of fierce beasts.
“Kaitlyn, is she the Beast King?” Stout asked.
“No!” Kaitlyn Houston shook her head. “She is one of the two eighth-rank Heavenly Empyrean Realm Demonic Beasts!”
“You’re still alive?” The woman approached and glanced at Kaitlyn Houston not far away. “That waste from the Emperor Clan couldn’t even kill you? What a waste!”
While speaking, she glanced at Billy and Stout and then completely ignored them.
A first-rank Comprehending Empyrean Realm and a half-step Comprehending Empyrean Realm were not worth her attention.
“Where is our princess?” Stout asked.
“How dare you!” A half-human and half-beast man from their side roared angrily and launched a violent attack towards Stout.
Kaitlyn Houston raised her hand and countered with an attack. After a loud bang, the man flew out hundreds of meters away and his physical body instantly perished.
With the help of two healing pills, Kaitlyn Houston’s injuries had recovered quite a bit. It was not difficult for her to destroy the physical body of a three-rank Heavenly Empyrean Realm Demonic Beast with a wave of her hand.
“You’re seeking death!” The woman raised her hand and waved. “Attack and kill them!”
As she spoke, thousands of Demonic Beasts surrounded Billy and his companions.
“Hehe, I love it when there are many… oh no, I mean when there are many beasts!” Stout licked his lips and rushed forward while activating his Ancient Book.
In an instant, characters resembling ‘Meteor’ fell from above, causing a violent shockwave that swept through the surroundings.
Most of these Demonic Beasts were below Heavenly Empyrean Realm strength. After the shockwave passed, their souls were annihilated instantly.
The Demonic Beasts in the early-stage Heavenly Empyrean Realm had their physical bodies turned into nothingness, while their souls flew into the air.
Only dozens of mid-stage Heavenly Empyrean Realm Demonic Beasts were sent flying hundreds of meters away by the shockwave. Apart from their changed expressions, they didn’t suffer much damage.
At the same time, Dark Puppet emerged from Billy’s body.
With so many souls, they couldn’t be wasted. Even flies are meat.
“Hmm?!” Seeing this scene, the leading woman furrowed her brows.
Immediately after, she rushed towards Stout but was interrupted halfway when a blood-red blade flashed past her, causing her physical body to perish instantly.
“You… you destroyed my physical body?!” The woman’s soul looked at Billy in astonishment.
At the same time she spoke, Kaitlyn Houston’s face once again showed a hint of shock.
Even though she had witnessed Billy beheading Emperor Jun earlier, she was still shocked by what she saw now. It was truly incredible!
“Where is our princess?” Billy calmly asked.
“You despicable humans! Since you’ve destroyed my physical body, I will make sure you never reincarnate!” The woman shouted angrily.
Naturally, her shock was no less than Kaitlyn Houston’s!
A half-step Comprehending Empyrean Realm human actually beheaded her physical body with one strike. She had lived for tens of thousands of years and had never encountered such a monstrous person!
Not only was she shocked, but the remaining mid-stage Heavenly Empyrean Realm Demonic Beasts were also dumbfounded.
Have humans become so abnormal now?
“One last question, where is our princess?” Billy asked again.
“What are you all waiting for? Attack together and kill them…” The woman ignored Billy and turned to the mid-stage Heavenly Empyrean Realm Demonic Beasts.
Before she could finish speaking, Dark Puppet had already arrived not far behind her and sucked her in with one gulp.
Another eighth-rank Heavenly Empyrean Realm soul-a great supplement!
“You bastard!” Just then, an extremely angry voice sounded as a man flew up from below.
From his aura, it could be seen that he also had an eighth-rank Heavenly Empyrean Realm cultivation level.
“He is another eighth-rank Heavenly Empyrean Realm Demonic Beast!” Kaitlyn Houston turned to Billy and said.
“He’s not the Beast King?” Stout shrugged his shoulders. “Boss, there’s no need to waste words with him. Just kill him!”
Kaitlyn Houston thought to herself: When did eighth-rank Heavenly Empyrean Realm become so weak? We can just kill them without any hesitation?
“Where is our princess?”
Billy looked at the man and asked while taking out two high-grade Chi Condensing Pills from his body and swallowing them.
After reaching half-step Comprehending Empyrean Realm cultivation level, although using Punish Heaven still consumed a large amount of Chi and Psychic Power, it was relatively better than before.
With the help of high-grade Chi Condensing Pills and soul water, it wouldn’t take long for him to fully recover…
