Pursued by the Top Grade Saintess after Engagement Annulled

Chapter 647 - 643: Resentful Beast Transformation, Snatching Food from the Tiger’s Mouth

After the Death God emerged, he first looked at the Demon with disdain, then his entire body expanded a bit, strands of gray Death Qi constantly scavenging the remaining Death Qi from the Great Dao of Life and Death left by the Fake Celestial Pill, causing his body to grow increasingly solid.

"Instead of dwelling on useless thoughts here, why not construct several Resentful Beast Transformation Arrays?"

"Those damn Heavenly Talents destroyed several crucial transformation nodes, significantly delaying the birth of the Gate of Death."

"No one knows who dealt with Great Monarch Morris, delaying the arrival of the Nether Race, which is entirely unfavorable for the later plans to seize the Celestial Pill."

A red flame appeared in his hollow skull eyes, staring intensely at the Demon, as if urging.

"You know as well as I do, the Celestial Pill can bring forth another existence close to a Great Monarch for our two races, which is critically important for breaking the Barrier ahead."

"So don’t screw up at such a critical moment, like Great Monarch Morris did, as even his residual soul can’t be found now, and who knows where he has run off to."

He looked noticeably agitated, but the Demon merely muttered something without rebutting him, proceeding to jointly set up a fairly substantial Resentful Beast Transformation Array.

After the birth of the Fake Celestial Pill, the scattered Pill Qi and the omnipresent Great Dao of Life and Death were directly absorbed by the Array, transforming into a continuous stream of resentment.

As the resentment intertwined, dark red miasma began to spread everywhere, obscuring the Array’s outline, and then low-level Resentful Beasts emerged from the Array Talisman, attacking each other and slowly forming into more powerful Resentful Beasts.

After completing all this, the Death God and Demon stopped their actions, proudly clapped their hands, then watched the newly birthed Resentful Beasts, resembling newborn creatures, scan their surroundings with fiendish expressions before pouncing to gnaw at the surrounding Pill Qi.

The strong Resentful Beasts even left the Array’s range, directly rushing outside the valley, relentlessly pursuing the Pill Beasts until they had completely devoured them, then proceeded to seek the next target.

The Demon and Death God exchanged a glance: "These little ones seem quite vigorous, if all the Resentful Beasts we nurture are of this level, there’s no fear our plan won’t succeed."

The Death God snorted lightly: "It’s only by leveraging the Pill Qi of the Fake Celestial Pill that we birthed such good specimens, to reach this level across the board, it’ll take some endurance."

"Don’t overthink it, if we lack quality, we’ll make up for it with quantity."

"Those Heavenly Talents that just left appeared very strong; if we follow them, perhaps we’ll find another good opportunity to make a move."

So Xia Feng followed Tang Yunqi for a distance and vaguely felt something was amiss behind them, but when he extended his Divine Sense, he detected nothing.

Tang Yunqi noticed Xia Feng’s expression and approached with some confusion to inquire: "Did you notice something?"

Xia Feng frowned slightly, consistently feeling something trailing behind them, yet unable to detect any trace of those people.

This baseless suspicion didn’t warrant mentioning to Tang Yunqi, only subtly hinting at a sense of unease.

Unbeknownst to them, the Death God and Demon behind them were already astonished: "Which Noble Family’s Heavenly Talent is this, how is their Divine Sense so powerful?"

"If it weren’t for our Great Monarch integrating Death Qi into this Secret Realm to obscure our moves, that keen little one would have already sensed our presence."

"No matter how the battles within this Secret Realm turn out, that little one must be dealt with, or else after leaving the Secret Realm, his sensory capabilities could prove to be quite troublesome for our races."

The Demon nodded in agreement: "Don’t worry, their destination seems to be just ahead; I heard from Kabunai that a batch of Heavenly Talents is already waiting there."

"I reckon these two groups will surely collide, and with a few tricks, they’ll end up killing each other."

Xia Feng constantly sensed behind him as he flew, yet ultimately detected no issues.

Upon entering the valley and seeing the Fake Celestial Pill already birthed, even in the grasp of a Heavenly Talent, he quickly dismissed that strange feeling, concentrating solely on the Heavenly Talents before him.

Tang Yunqi appeared to hold a rather special status within the Hidden Clan, as the Heavenly Talents ahead eyed him with some alertness and guardedness upon seeing him.

"Young Master Tang, when did you start mingling with these people from the Divine Domain?"

Tang Yunqi clicked his tongue lightly, surveying the others: "The Fake Celestial Pill in your hand is of the Sword Dao, right? It won’t be of any use in your Chu Family, why not trade it with me?"

Hearing Tang Yunqi mention trade, Chu Ba’s eyes showed a slight intrigue, but he quickly restrained it.

"Trading with Young Master Tang is naturally advantageous, but we have a little one here who can absorb this Fake Celestial Pill, so unfortunately, we won’t be able to make a trade with you."

Tang Yunqi’s expression held a hint of surprise; he was quite familiar with the Chu Family members before him, knowing none cultivated the Sword Dao.

Finally, his gaze fell on the unfamiliar Heavenly Talents behind, raising a brow thoughtfully and saying: "From your earlier words, I thought your Chu Family didn’t favor these Heavenly Talents from the Divine Domain."

Chu Ba’s expression stiffened, glancing at those people, then refrained from explaining: "Merely some test subjects, happened upon by chance so we didn’t reject their approach, unlike Young Master Tang’s good intentions."

Tang Yunqi remained noncommittal, but also disinclined to waste breath with them, directly saying: "We are determined to acquire this Fake Celestial Pill, name your price if you’re willing."

"Otherwise..."

The rest remained unsaid, as Chu Ba’s expression had already darkened, gazing at Tang Yunqi with some caution and scrutiny, perplexed by why such a persistent attitude was displayed by the Young Clan Leader of the trade family.

After a brief hesitation, Chu Ba sighed slightly: "Alright, I didn’t wish for conflict over this, the Sword Dao Fake Celestial Pill is merely intended for experimentation."

He held the Fake Celestial Pill, waiting for Tang Yunqi’s offer.

Xia Feng also breathed a slight sigh of relief, as a real dispute would undoubtedly require much greater effort and could potentially delay the timing of the next Fake Celestial Pill’s birth.

Just as they conversed, a sword shadow suddenly appeared, slipping directly from Chu Ba’s grasp, snatching away the Fake Celestial Pill.
