The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal-Chapter 1012 - : The Void Beast and the Three-legged Golden Toad
Chapter 1012 -1012: The Void Beast and the Three-legged Golden Toad
"Lord Void Beast is so powerful! And how formidable must one's combat strength be to defeat such an astonishing Void Beast of the same class?"
Ye Feng fell into deep thought.
He was eager to know if he could win a battle against a Void Beast of the same class and successfully obtain the Mark of Void.
"Sect Leader, do you know what this is? I always feel that it's not as simple as an orange cat," Mo Ying pointed at the Void Beast sitting on the ground and licking its paws.
Ye Feng explained:
"This is the Void Realm, connecting the Three Thousand Realms and the Starry Sky World. This orange cat is called a Void Beast."
"It is responsible for the assessment."
"Everyone battles it at the same class, and if they win, they can obtain the Mark of Void, using the Void Realm as a stepping stone to travel unhindered between the Starry Sky World and the Three Thousand Realms."
"Don't underestimate the Void Beast."
"It may look like a fat orange cat, but its combat power of the same class is said to be invincible, and only the most top-tier prodigies can defeat it."
With this, Ye Feng stopped talking.
Because deep in the bamboo forest, a Three-legged Golden Toad hopped along, coming to rest beside the Void Beast.
The Three-legged Golden Toad's cultivation level was not weak; it was actually at the Saint Entry Realm.
It lay on the ground, with two legs in front and one in the middle at the back, totaling three legs, and its entire body was as big as a basketball. It was hard to gauge its weight. Its eyes, wide and sparkling.
Slap!
The Void Beast slapped the top of the Three-legged Golden Toad's head.
"Gu gu gu!"
At once, the Three-legged Golden Toad uttered croaks and then, spoken words: "Hello, I am the pet beast of Lord Void Beast and can answer any questions on its behalf."
Seeing the talking Three-legged Golden Toad, all the disciples crouched down, eyes wide in fascination.
"My goodness!"
"Is this the legendary Three-legged Golden Toad?"
"They say it's a divine beast!"
"Saint Entry Realm... It's actually at the Saint Entry Realm!"
The disciples expressed their astonishment.
"Can you... help me out here?" At that moment, Wang Ping'an, still stuck in the bamboo slit, was grasping a bamboo pole with one hand and waving his other hand.
His face was filled with helplessness.
As everyone turned back, they realized Wang Ping'an was still stuck in the bamboo slit and rushed forward to grab his hand.
"Ouch!"
"Why can't we pull him out?"
The disciples pulled at Wang Ping'an's hand with all their might, only to find his body seemed to be firmly wedged in the bamboo slit; even with full strength, they could not rescue him.
Slap!
The Void Beast slapped the Three-legged Golden Toad once again.
The Three-legged Golden Toad understood and immediately said, "This little fellow dared to insult Lord Void Beast; he must be punished!"
Ye Feng looked at the Void Beast and the Three-legged Golden Toad, then at Wang Ping'an stuck in the bamboo slit, and said:
"Stop wasting your effort; besides me and the Void Beast, no one can get Wang Ping'an out. Let him stay stuck in the bamboo for now, to reflect on his actions!"
This bamboo was not ordinary Purple Bamboo, but high-quality Spatial Purple Bamboo, though it could not withstand the power of the Void Break Realm.
Logically, Wang Ping'an should not be subdued by them.
But because the entire Void Realm was imbued with the power of the Void Beast, the Purple Bamboo had become exceptionally tough, containing a suppressive force. To break free, there were only three ways.
One, to possess strength surpassing ten layers of the Hundred Tribulations Realm.
Two, to have the Eye of Decryption that can break all worldly restrictions.
Three, for the Void Beast to voluntarily release its grip.
"Lord Void Beast, please forgive me! I have lots of dried fish here for you, all for you!"
Wang Ping'an wasn't a fool; he quickly took out a basketful of dried fish and placed it on the ground covered with bamboo leaves.
"Meow!"
The Void Beast hopped over to the basket, sniffed at the dried fish, its eyes lighting up, and its little paws waved gently.
Bang!
Wang Ping'an slid from the bamboo slit and landed on the ground, finally safe.
Long Tianxing, who had previously experienced the "fat rump to the face" by the Void Beast, also got up from the ground and offered the dried fish he had hidden in his storage ring.
The Void Beast nodded in approval, forgiving his earlier offense.
At this moment, Mo Ying's brows furrowed slightly, and she said, "Strange, why can't my Divine Sense spread more than a hundred yards away?"
The others quickly tried it out.
"Eh! Mine too."
"I found that my Divine Sense spreads out to a hundred yards, it's like it touched a fog and can't extend any further."
"Is there a restriction in the Void Realm?"
The disciples started discussing.
Smack!
The Void Beast patted the Three-legged Golden Toad on its head.
"It's like this! The Void Realm buries the bones of countless challengers. Lord Void Beast has set up a prohibition so that Divine Sense can't explore too far, lest it disturbs the Heroic Spirits of those people."
The Three-legged Golden Toad explained.
Hearing this, everyone turned to look at the Three-legged Golden Toad.
They all had a strange thought: The Void Beast couldn't speak, so it specifically trained the Three-legged Golden Toad to speak for it.
"Meow!"
At this moment, the Void Beast, having eaten all the dried fish, cheerfully called out several times and walked into the depths of the bamboo forest.
"Follow me!"
The Three-legged Golden Toad also ran over, and before leaving, didn't forget to turn its head and remind Ye Feng and the others.
"Let's go!" Ye Feng led everyone to follow.
At this time, his mind was full of doubts.
Why did the third page of the "Nameless Sword Manual" drift from the Void Realm to Northern Emperor Star?
Who created the Void Beast?
Who arranged for it to guard the ancient passage between the Starry Sky World and the Three Thousand Realms?
How strong must one be to defeat the Void Beast?
...
Before long.
The group followed the Void Beast and Three-legged Golden Toad's footsteps, walked along the winding bamboo forest's stone path, passed a beautiful arch bridge made of Purple Bamboo, glanced at the clear, bottom-visible river water below, and finally arrived in front of a bamboo cottage on the other side of the river.
The bamboo cottage wasn't large.
It was two meters long and wide, and one and a half meters high, built entirely out of Purple Bamboo, simple and unadorned.
Clearly, this was no place for people to live.
"This is Lord Void Beast's residence, Meow Pavilion!"
The Three-legged Golden Toad stood up on its hind legs, used its front leg to point at the small cottage, and everyone squatted down to look at the door's plaque.
On it, there were indeed the words "Meow Pavilion" written.
The handwriting was crooked and askew, even worse than if it had been written with a chicken's claw.
"Looking across the entire Void Realm, our Lord Void Beast's handwriting is top-notch." The Three-legged Golden Toad praised, but its eyes clearly dodged, as if sheepish.
Hearing this, Ye Feng and the others exchanged glances, speechless.
After all, in the entire Void Realm, with only a fat orange cat and a Three-legged Golden Toad, even if they wrote with their feet it would be top-notch! novelbuddy.cσ๓
This statement was undeniably true.
"Elder Golden Toad, since the Meow Pavilion is the residence of Elder Void Beast, then where do you live?" Second-generation Disciple Lan Die pointed at the Meow Pavilion and then looked around.
She noticed there was only this one small cottage nearby.
"Of course, I live under the bridge!" The Three-legged Golden Toad pointed towards the bamboo arch bridge about ten meters away.
Everyone took a closer look.
Under the bridge, there was a smooth stone about the size of a millstone, its surface polished sleek like jade.
Near the stone, there were also several Blue Lotuses.
Indeed, it was a place well-suited for the Three-legged Golden Toad.
"Meow!"
Just then, the Void Beast cheerfully cried out, lazily sprawled inside the bamboo house, with half its head poking out the door, resting on a smooth stone, calmly observing the distance.
"Eh, there seems to be a lot of paper piled inside the bamboo house!"
Huo Yunjie pointed at the Meow Pavilion and took out the third page of the sword manual, finding that these papers looked identical, "Could it be that the source of the "Nameless Sword Manual" is right here?"
"Nameless Sword Manual?"
The Three-legged Golden Toad paused, stood up on its hind leg, pointed at the third page of the sword manual in Huo Yunjie's hand with surprise, and asked:
"This is our Lord Void Beast's toilet paper; where did you get this from? You didn't pick it up in the outside world, did you?"
"Toilet paper?" Huo Yunjie's hand couldn't help but tremble.
Everyone else's eyes widened, their gaze all falling on the third page of the sword manual that Huo Yunjie was clutching tightly.
For a moment.
The atmosphere on the scene became eerily quiet.
