Chapter 3196: Chapter 3196: Massacre
The two became increasingly astonished as they delved deeper into the nest .
This was a brutal and one-sided slaughter . Calling it a massacre wouldn’t be an exaggeration .
This nest consisted of one hundred thousand miles of sea . The entire place was red now due to blood flowing - truly a terrible sight to behold .
Most importantly, corpses floated all around . Some were as large as mountains while others the size of a fist . Dead schools of evil fish were seen as well . All in all, all the monsters in this area have been massacred down to the last . Not one was lucky enough to survive .
Moreover, they were killed by a single move each . It was apparent at first glance that none had a chance to resist or scream .
The two progenitors became cautious as a result .
“Who is it?” The scholar wondered, unable to come up with an answer .
In all of Uncrossable Expanse, those with the ability could be counted on one hand .
Yet, all of these beings were preoccupied right now . They certainly weren’t in the mood to sweep through this area .
Nevertheless, the two moved on, wanting to see the killer .
As they delved deeper, they finally heard loud explosions and loud splashes near Burden’s actual lair .
This central area had dangerous, densely-packed reefs and torrential waves .
Deeper in there was a gaping hole, seemingly the result of weathering after millions and millions of years from the seawater . Inside were numerous wind tunnels with howling winds as if devils were screaming down there .
It was as dark as can be with no end in sight, seemingly connected to hell itself . This was the actual nest of Burden, a sea grotto .
Ever since it started dominating, the entire region became its territory . Not to mention regular existence, even progenitors needed to exercise caution in this place .
These nine monsters were just too powerful . Burden had killed and eaten a progenitor before .
However, the waves weren’t as loud as normal in this central region . The reefs were covered with corpses, stopping most of the regular currents that have been painted red from reaching the grotto . Thus, only streams of blood dripped down instead in a horrifying manner .
In front of the entrance was a massive corpse - a creature looking like a sea lion except that it had nine skulls along with bone spurs sticking out of its spine .
This was the main thing stopping water from reaching the grotto due to its sheer size .
The two progenitors recognized this monster - the strongest follower of Burden, a Heaven Devouring Lion .
“I couldn’t kill it the last time I was here for training . ” Wu murmured .
“Crackle . ” They heard the sound of fire burning nearby and looked around .
They saw a bonfire on top of a large reef with a spinning skewer . The tendon on it was gigantic, more than enough to fill ten people .
It was clear and sparkling; its greasy fat dripped down the skewer with a golden hue . The smell could make anyone salivate .
Even a fool knew that this meat was the good stuff, extremely nutritious .
The two saw a youth busy barbecuing by the bonfire . He looked like an expert; each move was skillfully and easily .
The youth looked as normal as can be and could easily be mistaken for a mortal . In this scenario, he looked like a brat selling meat on the street .
Alas, this wasn’t the prosperous street from the mortal world and he was no meat seller . Who else could it be but Li Qiye?
The two progenitors shuddered and felt a sense of respect while looking at him . They were strong enough to have a good gauge of his actual power . That’s why they didn’t dare to show any disrespect and bowed towards him .
He leisurely gestured, telling them to come over: “Come have a taste of this lion foot tendon, quite delicious . ”
It clearly belonged to the Heaven Devouring Lion .
The two of them came over to help him roast this foot . It didn’t take long before this delicious feast was ready .
They were above needless conventional etiquette and hurriedly took off part of the meat to have a bite .
They didn’t hold back and loudly chewed . Liquid gushed out from each bite and streamed down the corner of their lips . The smell spoke volumes about its deliciousness .
They ate like a storm and easily finished a portion meant for ten . Li Qiye belched with satisfaction after finishing .
It seemed that Wu had a bigger appetite compared to Li Qiye and Yun . He licked his lips and said: “That was good, really good . ” He clearly could go for more .
“There’s still another foot . ” Li Qiye smiled .
“I’m going, this is just too good to miss . ” He laughed and instantly stood up to cut off the other foot for another roast .
As he was roasting, Li Qiye slowly picked his teeth while trying to digest .
“My title is Cloudcrossing, he is Brother Martial Ancestor, how should we address you, Senior?” The elegant progenitor bowed towards Li Qiye . [1]
Martial Ancestor was the progenitor of Vermillion Martial Court .
“Li Qiye, and no need to call me senior since I’m only eighteen . ” Li Qiye casually responded .
“It is an honor to meet you . ” Cloudcrossing said with respect .
“Not the first time . We’ve met before when I killed his heart devil . ” Li Qiye glanced at Martial Ancestor .
“So it still escaped . ” Martial Ancestor stopped and could guess what had transpired . He commented: “The descendants are foolish and greedy, only caring about treasures . ”
Martial Ancestor had some craziness in him, resulting in a heart devil . He couldn’t kill it and had to suppress it in his system . Later on, the martial court eventually released it .
“Thank you for helping or many would have died . ” Martial Ancestor bowed deeply towards Li Qiye .
“Just a matter of coincidence . And a touch of fate spared your system from me . ” Li Qiye smiled .
“The unfilial ones probably deserve it in that case and it wouldn’t be your fault, Senior . ” Martial Ancestor sighed .
He had spent a lot of effort on his system but since he had left for so long, those he cared about were no longer there .
Thus, he wouldn’t really mind it if Li Qiye had destroyed his system .
It had nothing to do with the emotionlessness of a top master . This was an issue of time erasing everything .
