Chapter 828: Deceived
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The gigantic blue bat was none other than the Divine Bat Emperor, one of the four Dao Integration Stage mythological beasts. It was currently guarding the Heavenly Beast Divine Mountain with three other Return to Void Final Stage immortal beasts. They were using the spell formation there to hinder the movements of the three other mythological beasts.
Energy ripples coming from the direction of the Vast Land of Blood was clearly a bad sign.
It took out its voice transmission talisman. It wanted to ask Nightmare Mud Man about the current situation.
It activated the voice transmission talisman, yet no one picked up.
“Hmm? Strange…”
The blue bat squinted its eyes. Nightmare Mud Man wouldn’t dare ignore its calls. Either it had come across an extremely pressing matter, or it had died.
It then tried to contact the flaming falcon, the dark dragon ape, and the Jade Bone Immortal Butterfly. There was no reply from any of them. It was unable to contact any of the four Return to Void Stage immortal beasts who stood guard outside the Vast Land of Blood… This situation was extremely worrying…
There was still one more beast tribe member it could contact. That was, the squad leader of the Divine Guardian Squad—the golden groundhog, Peerless Saber Demon!
The Divine Bat Emperor tried to contact its voice transmission talisman.
…
Meanwhile, in the Heavenly Basin, which was located tens of thousands of kilometers away.
The golden groundhog was still spectating the Nightmare Mud Man being pummeled by Dongfang Zhuangshi. He was with the two bludgers, Divine Poison Frog and Ao Niu.
Right at this moment, the golden groundhog’s voice transmission talisman lit up. It was given a fright when it looked down. “Holy f*ck! It’s the Divine Bat Emperor!”
The Divine Poison Frog and Ao Niu shuddered upon hearing this. Their bodies started trembling uncontrollably.
The Divine Bat Emperor had a fearsome reputation in the Sinister Spirit Beast Cesspool. It was a demonic being that would engulf an entire city’s worth of living beings if it was provoked. It was the embodiment of terror. All members of the beast tribes were naturally fearful of it.
“Ribbit! Could it be that the Divine Bat Emperor has realized something?” the Divine Poison Frog stammered.
“Its attention was probably caught by that explosion.” There was a lingering fear in Ao Niu’s heart as it gazed at the slowly dying flames in the distance.
They were also given a fright by that explosion. The apocalyptic flames seared an unforgettable image in their minds.
“So, should I answer it or not?” The golden groundhog struggled with indecision.
The fact that the voice transmission talismans connected signified that the golden groundhog had already left the Vast Land of Blood. If it didn’t answer the call, the Divine Bat Emperor would definitely become suspicious. If it did answer the call, its ability to lie would be seriously tested under the unavoidable torrent of question.
“Answer it! Ribbit!”
“Moo! We’ll provide you with advice.”
The golden groundhog hesitated for a moment. Then, it gritted its teeth and answered the voice transmission talisman, “Hello? Divine Bat Emperor, it’s me, Peerless Saber Demon.”
The Divine Bat Emperor’s hoarse and terror-inducing voice traveled over, “Saber Demon, you’re near the exit of the Vast Land of Blood, am I correct? What happened there? How come I can’t contact the Nightmare Mud Man, Jade Bone Immortal Bug, flaming falcon, or dark dragon ape?”
The golden groundhog had already prepared an excuse for this. “A human cultivator of the Return to Void Final Stage suddenly appeared in the Heavenly Basin. He was discovered by Nightmare Mud Man, and they’re currently locked in battle.”
The Divine Bat Emperor was silent for a moment. “The humans are also sticking their noses in this matter? Are you able to deal with it? Remember not to let any other beings into the Vast Land of Blood!”
“We have it under control,” the golden groundhog assured. “The human cultivator is about to lose. Rest assured, Divine Emperor! I’m currently guarding the entrance of the Vast Land of Blood. I definitely won’t allow any foreign being through!”
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Collisions of energy and explosions started to sound in the distance.
Dongfang Zhuangshi’s hands transformed into kirin claws, which were surrounded by crimson lightning. He stabbed them into Nightmare Mud Man’s chest and tore in opposite directions.
Rip!
Blood spurted into the air, and Nightmare Mud Man’s anguished cry reverberated through the heavens.
The pitch-black and sticky substance that had been ripped into two soared into the sky and fused back into one body.
“Hahaha… I heard that you’re called Nightmare Mud Man? You may as well change your name to Nightmare Mush.” Dongfang Zhuangshi laughed heartily. “No matter how I punch and kick, you’re just a slop of useless mush!” The roars of kirins could be heard as Dongfang Zhuangshi continued to slash his claws toward Nightmare Mud Man.
Nightmare Mud Man roared as he retreated, “Demonic Blood Kirin! You dare to kill my tribe’s flaming falcon and dark dragon ape? You really think that the Divine Bat Emperor will let this matter slide?”
“The Divine Bat Emperor can do sh*t all! It’s merely a newly ranked up mythological beast. If it comes, I’ll also beat the sh*t out of it!” Dongfang Zhuangshi wore a carefree expression as he spoke.
Regardless of whether they were battling or exchanging barbs, their actions were all earth-shaking.
Most importantly, the golden groundhog was currently talking to the Divine Bat Emperor through their voice transmission talismans. The exchange between the two battling beings was clearly heard by the Divine Bat Emperor.
Golden Groundhog: “…”
Divine Bat Emperor: “…”
Ao Niu and Divine Poison Frog: “…”
“Peerless Saber Demon…” The Divine Bat Emperor’s voice sounded hellish, and it caused one to tremble uncontrollably. “Care to explain yourself?”
I’m done for… I’ve been busted!
The Golden Groundhog immediately cut off the call.
Beep, beep, beep…
The voice transmission talisman disconnected.
The Divine Bat Emperor was dazed for a few seconds as it stared at the disconnected voice transmission talisman.
What the hell is going on? Have I been deceived?
I was almost played…
No! I’ve already been played!
How long has it been… How long has it been since a beast has dared to challenge my authority…
Boom!
A blue column of light soared into the skies and shook the heavens!
…
Within the Heavenly Basin.
“Master! Our existence has been discovered by the Divine Bat Emperor! We need to flee!”
The golden groundhog yelled at the middle-aged male in the sky.
Dongfang Zhuangshi faltered upon hearing this. A look of delight spread over Nightmare Mud Man’s face.
“Hahahaha… Demonic Blood Kirin, this is the benefit of having a powerful life force! So what if I can’t defeat you? As long as I can hold on until the Divine Bat Emperor arrives, you’re all dead meat!”
The Nightmare Mud Man roared with laughter.
The power of the divine dao surged through the Nightmare Mud Man’s body, and countless nightmarish shadows enveloped the sky. Countless pitch-black chains materialized and snaked out from some point in the sky. They rattled down and caged an area of thousands of meters in radius.
“This time, none of you can escape!”
…
Outside the Heavenly Basin, where the flaming falcon had self-detonated.
A mini Heavenly Basin had appeared here. It was a crater that spanned dozens of kilometers in radius. Destructive energy, spatial turbulence… All kinds of terrifying energies wreaked havoc in this area.
There was a black-robed female in the white-robed male’s arms, and the white-robed male was currently in the embrace of two silver Gundams.
Next to them was a stretching black dragon, a crippled Gluttony, and a scorched Jade Bone Immortal Butterfly.
“An Lin! Are you okay?” Xu Xiaolan shook the male before her.
“Hmm… It hurts a bit. Let me hug you for a bit longer…” An Lin squinted his eyes in happiness as he hugged onto the soft and slender body.
Xu Xiaolan: “…”
Boom!
An Lin was blasted back by a gigantic force.
“Hurry up and attend to proper matters!” Xu Xiaolan blushed, and she scolded An Lin in embarrassment.
An Lin started gathering his battle companions.
The flaming falcon’s self-detonation was indeed terrifying. If it had been a supreme being of the Return to Void Initial Stage, then they would have been blasted to death considering their close proximity at the time. However, it was a shame that An Lin’s team was full of tough cookies.
Xiao Ze’s defense was freakish, so he didn’t receive any injuries. The Jade Bone Immortal Butterfly was relatively far away at the time, so it wasn’t blasted to death. Gluttony possessed a divine swallowing ability, so it was able to swallow a portion of the explosive energy and survive.
As for An Lin and Xu Xiaolan, they were protected by Gundam Three and Gundam Four’s Ionic Deprivation Protection Formation, and they remained completely unharmed.
At this moment, An Lin’s voice transmission talisman lit up.
An Lin picked it up, and Ao Niu’s panicked voice immediately traveled over.
“We’re in trouble! Senior An Lin, the Divine Bat Emperor has already found out what we’ve done! It’s likely that it’s already heading over!”
An Lin: “!!!”
