Martial Conquest of the Nine Desolates-Chapter 174 - 172: Ten Thousand Burial Pits

(First update is here, very sorry for being so late.)

"Wang Lin, are you looking for death?"

Long Yu and other young talents on the city wall were shocked. Forty third-class Innate Limit ferocious beasts attacked simultaneously. Besides Jiang Yunfan and the Wu’an County Master, no one could stop them.

However, Xiao Ye turned a deaf ear, rushing towards the ferocious beasts with extreme speed.

"Looking for death?" Xiao Ye’s eyes were cold, "If my strength were only at the third-class Innate Limit, that would indeed be seeking death, but my strength is far beyond that."

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, his strength was too restricted; even the Sun and Moon Seal Technique could not be used.

Xiao Ye slightly raised his head, looking at the forty enormous ferocious beasts, his eyes burning intensely, his blood boiling, and a strong war intent shaking the heavens.

He dared to face forty third-class Innate Limit ferocious beasts alone because he had an invincible physical defense.

He was not a selfless saint; with strength, he could not watch Fierce Beast City being breached and tens of thousands of Human Clan dying under the beasts.

"I can’t openly demonstrate the power of my physical body; I must lure these beasts away. Now the Martial Arts True Intent can’t be activated, and the Innate True Qi, however, isn’t much exhausted."

Upon this thought, Xiao Ye unleashed a torrent of Innate True Qi, transforming into four gigantic hands obscuring the sky, akin to four mountain peaks crashing towards the forty beasts.

Rumble!

The footsteps of the forty beasts were paused, scarcely harmed, their eyes blazing with flames of anger as they stared at Xiao Ye.

"Indeed, if I don’t use the Silent Annihilation Hand at Perfection Level, I can’t even breach the defenses of these beasts." Xiao Ye’s eyes narrowed.

"Silent Annihilation Hand!"

Xiao Ye’s black hair danced wildly, pushing the power of the Silent Annihilation Hand to its peak, fighting forty ferocious beasts alone, the intense combat waves causing the earth to crack, a truly shocking scene.

Standing firm in the field, Xiao Ye exuded mighty waves of power, continuously deploying the Silent Annihilation Hand, secretly bolstering his physical defense, managing to repel the forty ferocious beasts, blood splattering from many of them.

Provocation!

This was extreme provocation!

The forty ferocious beasts were enraged to the extreme, their roars shaking the heavens as they pounced on Xiao Ye.

"This is enough." Xiao Ye thought to himself, then stomped the ground, slipping through the gaps between the massive beasts, charging towards the rear, where the direction of Fierce Beast Mountain lay.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

Forty ferocious beasts missed their target, roaring furiously, their fierce aura overwhelming, their faces savage as they pursued Xiao Ye, each step shaking the ground.

"Lord Wang Lin actually lured the beasts away alone!"

"This..."

Fierce Beast City fell silent, many choked with emotion, everyone silently chanting Wang Lin’s name.

"Alas, from this day on, our Black Dragon Country will have one less powerful young talent." Long Yu sighed, a complex emotion surging in his heart.

That was the melancholy of losing an opponent.

The independent practitioners who were contemplating retreat stood silently on the city wall, gazing at the diminishing figure, full of guilt.

Xiao Ye risked himself, drawing away forty ferocious beasts to protect Fierce Beast City, what face did they have to leave?

"Damn it, with Lord Wang Lin being so righteous, I’m not leaving!"

"I’m not leaving either!"

Those independent practitioners and young talents who had descended from the city wall returned, standing with the soldiers, preparing to defend Fierce Beast City.

If Xiao Ye knew the tremendous impact his actions had on everyone, he would surely be both amused and exasperated.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

The forty beasts roared in unison, their immense voices deafening, scattering the clouds at the edge of the sky. A golden ape with flourishing fur, almost as tall as a small mountain, was incredibly fast, quickly catching up.

Boom!

It lifted its paw, stomping down on Xiao Ye fiercely.

"This distance is far enough from Fierce Beast City."

Xiao Ye suddenly turned, his eyes blazing with intimidating light, his long hair floating in the air, his surging blood forming a massive pillar of light shooting into the Nine Heavens, intertwining into three colossal cauldrons above his head, exuding a suppressive aura over all heavens.

Xiao Ye stood under this sky, the blood in his body raging rapidly, a powerful physical force coursing through his body, like the roaring Yangtze River.

"You enjoyed the chase, didn’t you?"

Xiao Ye sneered coldly in his heart, looking at the enormous foot descending, and simply punched out. His strength received a double amplification, making the punch terrifyingly mighty, almost with the power to tear the sky.

This was the first time Xiao Ye unleashed his full strength after his cultivation broke through to the Innate Realm Ninth Layer.

Boom!

It was like two great mountains colliding, the terrifying power waves spreading like a tide, cracking the ground under Xiao Ye’s feet, dust soaring in the sky.

The golden ape howled miserably, its paw shredded and bloody, its face full of panic as it was shaken and flew, smashing a deep pit into the ground.

It seemed unable to fathom why the strength of this human youth soared so abruptly.

If there were outsiders here, they would surely be astonished, a simple punch hurling a third-class Innate Limit beast, this was terrifyingly astounding.

"I guessed right, once I unleash the power of my physical body, my strength indeed reaches the second-class Innate Limit!" Xiao Ye felt immensely delighted, the feeling of unleashing power without restraint was exhilarating.

"Humph, you beasts dare chase me, you are seeking death!"

Xiao Ye let out a long howl, forming a strange seal with his hand, immediately a disc-like Lonely Moon appeared, radiating infinite clear light.

"All of you, die!" Xiao Ye coldly shouted, pushing the Lonely Moon forward, shooting towards the thirty-nine pursuing beasts.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The clear light emitted by the Lonely Moon, like sharp swords sweeping towards those beasts, carving stripes of blood marks on their bodies, blood flowing, their massive bodies all being blasted away.

The nearing Perfection Lonely Moon Seal was much stronger than the Perfect-level Silent Annihilation Hand.

Xiao Ye unleashed his full strength, all three cauldrons out, deploying the Fighting Fist Technique, actively charging towards the forty beasts, engaging them fiercely.

Every punch he threw, at least one beast was knocked flying, he rampaged through the beast horde, invincible.

At this moment, Xiao Ye seemed more like a human-shaped beast, single-handedly defeating the forty feral beasts, leaving them unable to lift their heads.

Within just one incense stick’s time, Xiao Ye didn’t even draw his Flame Saber, and the massive bodies of the forty feral beasts were all laid down, the ground soaked with blood like streams.

"Fierce beast blood of the Innate Limit, can’t be wasted." Xiao Ye took out a bamboo tube he had prepared, walking towards one of the beasts.

He had prepared the bamboo tube before coming to Fierce Beast City, carrying it for the convenience of collecting beast blood.

"The blood near the heart of a ferocious beast is the essence." Xiao Ye recalled the records in the Sixth Elder’s Body Secret Technique, drawing out the Flame Saber to start collecting the blood.

Gurgle! Gurgle!

Beast blood flowed like a fountain, quickly filling the bamboo tube.

"The great task is accomplished! Now all treasures for refining the Ten Treasures Pill are collected, haha!" Xiao Ye capped the bamboo tube, his face full of excitement.

Once the Ten Treasures Pill is refined, when his physical body’s Four Cauldron Power reaches great success, adding on the Perfect Innate True Qi, perhaps he could leap to the Superior Innate Limit’s strength, winning the Heavenly Pride Battle without suspense.

"And there’s the Empress cause and effect!" Xiao Ye’s eyes brightened.

The Human Race Four Emperors, each stood at the pinnacle of Martial Dao, overlooking the Nine Desolates; forming cause and effect with such figures was thrilling just to think about.

Just as Xiao Ye was about to return, he suddenly felt a movement in his heart, looking into the distance at the Fierce Beast Mountain Range.

"These beasts attacking Fierce Beast City unrelentingly must have a special reason." A strong urge to explore arose in Xiao Ye’s mind.

"The Wu’an County Master said that there are no Xuanwu Realm beasts in this Fierce Beast Mountain, so I need not fear." Skilled and daring, Xiao Ye headed towards the Fierce Beast Mountain Range.

The Fierce Beast Mountain Range is enormous, with countless beasts inside, a forbidden land for the Human Clan, only Innate Limit martial artists could set foot.

As soon as Xiao Ye entered, he encountered a multitude of ferocious beasts, but the strongest was merely at the Innate Realm Ninth Layer.

He certainly showed no mercy, unleashing his full strength, traversing over piles of beast corpses.

"I feel something unusual here." The closer Xiao Ye approached the center of the Fierce Beast Mountain Range, the more he felt a chilling sensation, even his hair stood on end, as if a pair of eyes were watching him.

Yet the intensifying desire to explore drove him forward.

"Hmm? There is a stele over there!" Xiao Ye’s eyes sharpened.

It’s more of a mountain peak than a stele, quite conspicuous in the mountain range, which is why he noticed it at a glance.

The stele seemed to have stood through eternity, indestructible by any force, exuding an ancient aura.

Upon seeing the stele, Xiao Ye’s heart began to pound uncontrollably.

He also noticed that the beasts attacking him dared not come closer, as if encountering something terrifying, they retreated hastily.

Hesitating for a moment, Xiao Ye drew his Flame Saber, stepping towards the stele.

"This is..." As Xiao Ye approached the stele, his pupils contracted sharply, engulfed by a strong sense of crisis.

This is no longer the Fierce Beast Mountain Range, it’s a hell on earth.

Surrounding the stele lay countless corpses, densely packed and innumerable.

Ninety percent were humans, and ten percent were beasts. Their blood seemed drained by something, leaving only shriveled skin covering the skeletons.

Some of the corpses, both human and beast, exuded an aura familiar to Xiao Ye.

"These are definitely the corpses of Xuanwu Realm beasts and powerful Xuanwu Realm individuals!" Xiao Ye was utterly horrified.

Having fought Xuanwu Realm experts before, this aura was nothing unfamiliar to him.

As Xiao Ye’s gaze shifted, he even noticed a lifelike corpse, without any decay, even in death the suppression it radiated was strong.

"Could this be a corpse surpassing the Xuanwu Realm?" Xiao Ye was astonished.

That gigantic stele stood atop the mountain of corpses, filling Xiao Ye with dread.

"Could it be the beasts’ frenzy to attack Fierce Beast City was to transport human corpses here?" Xiao Ye suppressed his fury, glanced at the stele.

"The Ten Thousand Burial Pits, bury the world’s heroes, drink the blood of heroes, to sustain my life, and when I awaken, it shall be the time to proclaim emperorship!" These words were engraved on the stele.
