Chapter 1207: Clans-Ground
Chapter 1207: Clans-Ground
Xue Ying and the team of natives rushed to the core of this sky-floating island at the fastest speed. With the natives leading the way, things were incredibly smooth.
And on another side.
"Hua hua hua..."
A lump of black fog condensed. It turned into many Death Disaster Clansmen. Some of them were beasts and some were humans. The leading one was that black-robed girl.
"King, these invaders are very powerful."
"We can't defeat them just with us!"
They were all looking at that black-robed girl.
That black-robed girl examined her black claws and gave it a twirl. At the same time, her eyes were filled with coldness as she nonchalantly said: "The invaders have already surpassed the strength of our team. The few of you should retreat. Remember, evade them. Don't send yourselves to death! Our losses this time is huge. I'll report this news upwards and let the elders worry about it instead."
"Yes, King." All the subordinates replied respectfully with their heads looking downwards.
The black-robed girl then turned into a fog. In a flash, he disappeared.
These subordinates also transformed into black fog before tunneling underground.
The sky-floating island was the place of their birth. Over here, they held the initiative to fight or to retreat.
...
The core of this sky-floating island was a huge mountain that had practically been dug empty. Within the mountain was a palace dug. It was quite amazing for the Death Disaster clansmen to have constructed these palaces. Some of the weaker Death Disaster clansmen had intelligence similar to many wild animals, of which only the elite experts were more intelligent. Of course, those at the top and core members had the highest intelligence. But compared to cultivators and the natives, they were far too lacking.
An unseen ripple fluctuated.
At the next moment, a lump of black fog appeared before the fluctuating ripples. It transformed into a black-robed girl.
Amidst those ripples, a pitch black mutated beast face appeared. He stared at the black-robed girl.
"King Fu Suo, why have you returned to the clans ground?" That ugly-looking beast face muttered.
"I have an important matter to report to the Emperor! Hurry up and pass the word." The black-robed girl shouted. She felt disdainful from speaking to these protectors.
"Report to the Emperor?" The face of that beast felt startled, "King Fu Suo, you really have something which you have to report to the Emperor?"
"Why would I lie about such matters?" The black-robed girl roared, "Don't waste my time any longer. Hurry up and go."
That beast-like face hesitated momentarily. Even though this group of Death Disaster clansmen who stayed in the clans ground held Death Disaster clansmen living outside in contempt, since this was an important matter which had to be reported to the Emperor, nobody would be that daring to lie about it.
"Hua."
The unseen ripple immediately split apart to form a passage.
"Please go to the Elder Hall to wait." An enormous beast with a fiery head and black body growled by the side.
"Hmph." The black-robed girl was too lazy to give this protector a glance. She hurried over to the Elder Hall.
There was a huge mountain which occupied an immensely huge area. It was also the core area of the entire sky-floating island.
The black-robed girl did not randomly intrude the place. Instead, she came directly to the Elder Hall.
Elder Hall...
That was an enormous palace hall. This hall looked dimmed, and had three thrones within it. At the center of this simple hall, there was an enormous water pool filled with black liquid. A bizarre slanted tree could be seen growing in this pool. Currently, two fruits were hanging off that tree. The skin of the fruits were thin-one could easily see the sparkle of light within them.
This tree was about 33 meters tall. At the top of the tree, there was an exotic 'grayish eye'.
The grayish eye was also emitting an incorporeal power.
"King Fu Suo, please wait here for a moment." The two protectors outside the Elder Hall looked coldly at King Fu Suo.
King Fu Suo snorted before standing outside and waited.
GIven her temper, if not for the fact that the intruders were very powerful this time and she had to report upwards, she would be too lazy to pay the clans-ground a visit. The strength of the invaders had reached a stage that would cause the clan to enter high alert. If she did not report such matters upward and it was determined through investigations after the matter. She would be in deep trouble.
"King Fu Suo, what is it that requires you to report to the Emperor? Do you not know that the Emperor and the Elders are currently in deep sleep?" A tall and thin male walked over. He dragged a thin and long tail with him on the ground. The tall and thin male sneered, "You should know that the Emperor and Elders would definitely be furious if they were to be awakened from their sleep. If the matter isn't that important, you might even be punished from it."
"King Qi Du, I've discovered some invaders in my territory." King Fu Suo coldly replied, "The invaders include a team of natives and three cultivators from the Realm Heart Great Land. The commander of the natives aren't any weaker than me! And one of the three cultivators from Realm Heart Great Land is stronger than me. He is at least at the peak of king level."
"Oh?" The tall and thin male revealed a look of astonishment, "There are even intruders from the Realm Heart Great Land? And one at least at the peak of king level?"
It was rare for cultivators from Realm Heart Great Land to come.
Even though most Cosmos Gods with avatars in Realm Heart Great Land would pay the Broken Teeth Mountain Range a visit frequently to try their luck, the Broken Teeth Mountain Range was ultimately too big. This sky-floating island did not encounter many cultivators from the Realm Heart Great Land. There had only been once when a 'at least peak of king level' cultivator came.
Most of the time, they encountered the natives!
"Now that you know the invaders are extraordinary, hurry up and report to the Emperor." The black-robed girl said.
"No rush, no rush. Waking the Elders or Emperor are exceptional matters which I have to discuss with other kings first." The tall and thin male said.
"Still planning to discuss?" The black-robed girl was slightly anxious, "By the time you finish discussing, the invaders would have reached."
The tall and thin male merely sneered.
A 'king' who did not belong to the clans-ground wasn't qualified to question how the clans-ground handle matters.
The clans-ground was the place that ruled the sky-floating island.
"Hmph." The black-robed girl snorted after seeing what was happening, "I've already informed about what has happened. If any unforeseen circumstances happened, and the Emperor plans on putting the blame on someone, you can't say it's me."
"Rest assured." The tall and thin male answered. At the same time, he transmitted over and conversed with other kings.
After some trivial discussions.
After the time taken to brew a cup of tea.
"After our discussion, given that there is a peak king within the group of invaders, he could very well be at the unparalleled level in Realm Heart Great Land. It is fine if we wake Second Elder and Third Elder! We will temporarily not awaken the Grand Elder and Emperor." The tall and thin male said.
"The enemy is still concealing some of his strength." The black-robed girl said.
"Haha, don't we still have us kings? Hmph hmph, we have been given birth amidst the death of Chaotic Origin Lifeforms. As for those bereaved clans from the Chaotic Origin bloodline, their body contains the blood of Chaotic Origin Lifeforms too." The tall and thin male sneered, "Compared to our two great clans, the cultivators are much weaker. Furthermore, we are in the sky-floating island. We hold the terrain advantage and this is sufficient in dealing against them."
"The cultivators have to walk step by step from weak. Their usage of energy is incredibly profound. I think we should wake the Grand Elder at least."
"The two elders are also at the peak king level. It wouldn't be too late to wake the Grand Elder should the group of kings in our clans-ground fail to resist against the intruders."
The tall and thin male chuckled, "Just wait here while I go awaken the two elders."
At the same time when the tall and thin male walked out of the Elder Hall-
A figure hurried over.
"Quick quick quick, there are intruders! The intruders have already crossed the outer perimeter. They are traveling at an extremely fast speed and will soon be reaching the clans-ground." A single-horned male wearing black robe roared as he rushed over. He was one of the kings currently responsible for guarding the outermost perimeter of the clans-ground, "There is also a cultivator from the Realm Heart Great Land who is very powerful. He is at the peak king level, similar to the elders."
"What, so fast?" The tall and thin male was startled.
When the black-robed girl in the Elder Hall heard that, she shouted out: "King Qi Du, I've already informed you to be quick. See! They are already reaching the clans-ground now!"
The tall and thin male, King Qi Du, no longer spoke. He immediately transformed into black fog and went over to see the elders.
Deep under one of the mountains here.
There was an enormous lake of water. The water lake contained a liquid deep green in color. A huge black body lay within this liquid. Because it was too big, part of its body surfaced out from the liquid.
And around this lake, there were three smaller lakes.
Those three smaller lakes contained a body laying within.
"Second Elder, Third Elder."
The tall and thin male, King Qi Du came and immediately transmitted the message over. Many ripples tunneled into the two figures sleeping within the smaller lakes.
Very soon.
Those two smaller lakes fluctuated as the bodies began opening their eyes.
"Hu, hu."
The two figures transformed into black fog and disappeared. Following that, they appeared by the side of King Qi Du.
"King Qi Du, why did you wake us?" The two elders stared at King Qi Du.
King Qi Du slightly bowed, saying: "There are invaders. The invaders consist of a team of natives and three cultivators from the Realm Heart Great Land. There is an expert in the three cultivators from Realm Heart Great Land who uses sword. His strength is determined to be at the peak king level. Cultivators usually have incredibly high realms, and the few of us are having a hard time surviving, much less resisting against them."
...
And on another side.
Xue Ying's group of cultivators and the team of natives had just defeated a team of Death Disaster clansmen that ambushed them. This team of Death Disaster clansmen should not be too clear of their strength. Given Swordmaster's power, he easily killed five Death Disaster clansmen, forcing the remaining 20 over Death Disaster clansmen to escape in fear.
"Our speed is sufficiently fast. The Death Disaster Clan should not know much about us. Hurry! We are about to reach the core clans-ground of the Death Disaster Clan." The natives were all incredibly excited. That Majesty Blood Flame Ji even transmitted a message to Xue Ying and the other two, "We will use our fastest speed to rush to the clans-ground. Just grab whatever treasures you see. After that, we'll hurry away."
"Understood."
Xue Ying and the others looked forward to it. They were about to reach the core area, the clans-ground?
