Dragon Blood Saint Emperor

After passing through the tunnel and the dangerous Ancient Forest, Ye Wushuang stepped into his destination, his eyes immediately fixing on a round stone platform in the center of the cavern.

The stone platform was the color of dark indigo and emanated a thin, arched halo of light. Suspended within it was a simple, ancient-looking scroll.

Ye Wushuang knew exactly what that scroll was. It was the Fourth-Grade Combat Skill that Dii Qingxue had tossed in here!

’A Fourth-Grade Combat Skill!’

Staring at it, Ye Wushuang couldn’t look away. It might be nothing to Dii Qingxue, but to him, it was exceptionally precious.

As far as Ye Wushuang knew, Combat Skills were miraculous abilities that complemented Cultivation Techniques. They were divided into nine grades, and above those were Spirit-Level Combat Skills.

Typically, a Ninth-Grade Combat Skill was already at the level of a family heirloom. Even the Ye Family didn’t possess one. As for Spirit-Level Combat Skills, he had never even seen one; only a powerful Sect like the Ancient Spirit Sect would have them.

One could imagine how valuable a Combat Skill was to a Cultivator. Before him was a Fourth-Grade Combat Skill, an absolutely priceless treasure for a disciple in the Body Tempering Realm.

Ye Wushuang walked to the stone platform, eagerly reaching for the scroll, planning to grab it and make a run for it.

However, before his hand could get near the scroll, he stopped. A chill ran down his spine as a deadly sense of crisis washed over him.

When he turned around, his pupils contracted. Ten massive beasts had violently smashed through the stone wall, the impacts echoing with a series of loud THUDS.

’Fierce Beasts!’

Ye Wushuang silently stared at the Fierce Beasts that had appeared. They were slightly larger than tigers and emanated a violent aura.

Their blood-red eyes, like two lanterns, were fixed on Ye Wushuang. Disgusting saliva dripped from their mouths. In their eyes, Ye Wushuang saw bloodlust and greed.

’The auras of these Fierce Beasts are so powerful. What realm are they at?’

’This is a perfect chance to test how strong my Combat Power has become!’

Ye Wushuang assessed them inwardly, not even bothering to wonder how these ten Fierce Beasts had appeared. He began to analyze the situation.

ROAR!

The ten Fierce Beasts seemed to dislike the staring contest. They roared ferociously, their eyes flashing with malice. One of them took the lead and charged at Ye Wushuang to kill.

SWOOSH!

A lion-like Fierce Beast bounded through the air, swiping its sharp claws as it lunged murderously toward Ye Wushuang.

Ye Wushuang’s expression turned grim. He dodged to the side with incredible speed.

But the Fierce Beast was astonishingly fast. With a RIP, its sharp claws shredded the clothes on Ye Wushuang’s chest, leaving behind several bloody gashes of varying lengths.

HSSS!

Ye Wushuang sucked in a cold breath, grimacing in pain.

"Damn beast, I’ll rip you apart today!"

In the blink of an eye, Ye Wushuang flew into a rage. His muscles bulged, and like a humanoid Violent Ape, he charged toward the Fierce Beast.

Die!

As he neared the Fierce Beast, Ye Wushuang shot into the air. With a clenched fist, he plummeted down, landing a blow on the beast’s body with a loud CRACK.

The Fierce Beast’s body was unusually tough. His fist smashed against it, not only producing the sound of clashing metal but also striking some sparks.

Of course, it also heavily injured the Fierce Beast.

ROAR!

The Fierce Beast cried out in pain. It thrashed its body, throwing Ye Wushuang to the ground. However, thanks to the physical benefits of the Heaven-Devouring Dragon Technique, he wasn’t seriously injured.

"Kill!"

Ye Wushuang performed a kip-up to get back on his feet. With a BOOM, he charged forward again. Moving like the wind, he dodged the Fierce Beast’s attack, planted his foot, and vaulted onto its back. His iron-like fists rained down, smashing its head. CRACK! With one final blow, he slammed it to the ground.

Immediately, Ye Wushuang’s fist suddenly morphed into a claw. With a sickening RIP, he dug into the shattered wound and brutally ripped the Fierce Beast’s body apart.

SPLURT! SPLURT!

Gushes of fresh blood spurted out, splashing onto Ye Wushuang’s face and body, then trickling down his skin.

At that moment, the Heaven-Devouring Dragon Technique strangely activated on its own, madly devouring the Blood of Fierce Beasts. A wave of power poured into his meridians.

’The Blood of Fierce Beasts also contains terrifying power! This should be able to raise my Cultivation by a fair amount!’

Ye Wushuang was overjoyed. Understanding the unique nature of his Heaven-Devouring Dragon Technique, he quickly began to circulate it, frantically absorbing the Fierce Beast’s essence blood. At the same time, his fierce eyes turned to the remaining Fierce Beasts, a fervent heat in his gaze.

At that moment, it was as if Ye Wushuang was the true Fierce Beast, emerging from hibernation!

ROAR! ROAR!

The remaining nine Fierce Beasts were incited by the scent of blood and charged forward to kill.

"If you’re not afraid to die, then come!"

Ye Wushuang was now brimming with confidence. His figure flickered as he used his fists as weapons. He grabbed one Fierce Beast while his other hand rained down punches on its head. The sickening CRACK, CRACK of breaking bones was horrifying to hear.

RIP! RIP!

One tearing sound after another echoed through the cavern, followed by more. Fresh blood splattered everywhere, covering the entire cave. His methods were utterly brutal.

In the blink of an eye, all ten Fierce Beasts had been dealt with in the same manner—brutally torn in half. All the while, the Heaven-Devouring Dragon Technique was continuously helping him devour the Blood of Fierce Beasts.

RUMBLE!

At this moment, a surging power flowed within Ye Wushuang’s body. It began to refine his bones, pushing him toward the Body Tempering Seventh-Layer Bone Refining Realm.

’This Heaven-Devouring Dragon Technique is as terrifying as they say! It devours everything! And this body... it’s terrifying too!’

Looking back at the floor littered with severed limbs and mangled corpses, Ye Wushuang was ecstatic. The Fierce Beasts were fearsome, but his physical body was even more so!

He quickly snatched the scroll and dashed in a direction leading out of the palace.

He was completely unaware that there had been Tier Seven Fierce Beasts or a Tier Eight Fierce Beast among them. He only knew that the Blood of Fierce Beasts could help him increase his strength, and he didn’t want to expose the Heaven-Devouring Dragon Technique too early. It was best to leave as soon as possible.

But what Ye Wushuang didn’t know was that this brutal scene had been witnessed by a young woman.

This young woman was none other than Yangg Qing’er.

At this moment, Yangg Qing’er’s beautiful eyes were wide. Her face was pale with fright, and her eyes were filled with terror.

The bloody, violent massacre that had taken place in the cave was still vivid in her mind. Combined with the shocking sight at the waterfall from before, a primal fear took root in her heart.

BOOM!

Not long after Ye Wushuang had left, Dii Qingxue and Elder Huang, who had come to deal with the trouble, also arrived.

Gazing at the bloody scene in the cave, Dii Qingxue’s delicate brows furrowed slightly in surprise. Without saying a word, she turned and left.

Elder Huang, who was beside her, was startled. In all his long years, he had never encountered such a brutal and terrifying scene. In what felt like an instant, ten Fierce Beasts lay on the ground, mangled beyond recognition.

’Could it have been that kid?’

Elder Huang immediately thought of Ye Wushuang, the first one to enter the cavern, as no one else had arrived yet. Suppressing his shock, he followed Dii Qingxue and left.

"First place is mine, and the Fourth-Grade Combat Skill belongs to me, Duan Yu!"

Duan Yu was ahead of Yangg Hao and the others. A smug look on his face, he transformed into an afterimage and rushed into the ancient cave, heading straight for the central platform.

Just as he was about to reach the stone platform, he stepped on a Fierce Beast’s head. His body slipped, and he fell flat on his face. In a clumsy sprawl, his face landed in a pool of blood before the round platform, getting smeared with a thick, warm layer of it.

"Bastard! How dare you plot against me? It’s... huh?"

Duan Yu scrambled up and started cursing, but when he saw the blood on his body, he was startled and stumbled back several steps.

When he looked around, his pupils shrank even more. He saw Fierce Beasts torn into several pieces, their mangled limbs and bodies scattered across the ground, with blood splattered everywhere!

The brutality of the methods and the gruesomeness of the scene left Duan Yu completely stunned. What the hell happened here...?

SWOOSH! SWOOSH!

Afterward, Yangg Hao and a group of disciples arrived. The moment they entered the ancient cave, they too froze, their scalps tingling with dread.

"What the hell... is this? A Tier Seven Fierce Beast, and even a Tier Eight Fierce Beast, are all dead! And the blood is still warm! This must have just happened!"

The crowd was terrified. They scanned the great hall, and their gazes all landed on Duan Yu, who was covered in blood.

"I... I just got here too!" Duan Yu said to the crowd, his lips trembling. He was only just now coming to his senses.

"You really didn’t kill them?" a young man asked with a frown.

"If he had this kind of ability, he would’ve entered the Inner Sect long ago!" Yangg Hao said from the side. Even he, a battle-hardened veteran, couldn’t hope to match such terrifying methods, let alone the inexperienced Duan Yu.

"Then who was it? That guy is an absolute monster!"

Yangg Hao murmured.

"Yeah, a monster! This is too savage!"

The others agreed, all feeling a bit scared. Only a true monster could pull off such brutal methods.

Meanwhile, back at the main hall of Yunhua Peak, Dii Qingxue and Elder Huang had just returned when they saw Yangg Qing’er walk out, her little face deathly pale.

"Senior Sister, it was him! He was the one who tore apart the ten Fierce Beasts!"
