Matchless Pill God

13. The Desert

Translator: Flying Lines

The Devil Dragon Wasteland, a vast area, was located on the frontier of Beichen Kingdom.

Qin Sheng was like a skilled hunter, leading everyone to turn left and right, and easily got rid of the chase of the corpse king. They soon left the mining area and came to the wasteland.

The Devil Dragon Wasteland had been dead for countless years. Legend had it that countless sect relics had been buried. One of the most famous wars was the Ancient War, during which a devil dragon died in the wasteland in blood. It was a divine beast. The divine blood of devil dragon corroded all the creatures, deposited under the ground, and turned into a large area of ​​primordial mining area.

The mining area was underground, and above the mining area was the wasteland.

Ten thousand years ago, the Devil Dragon Mining area was also extremely prosperous. Countless warriors excavated the primordial stones here, and countless dynasties and sects were born.

However, thousands of years had passed, and everything had already long gone with the wind. Especially during the legendary War of the Armageddon, the other war of the two great wars, the wasteland was invaded by foreign powerhouses. The mining area was exploited up, and the beasts were almost extinct…

Silence and desolation became the eternal theme here.

As soon as he walked out of the mining area, Qin Sheng looked around and soon discovered that the wasteland had undergone tremendous changes.

Qin Sheng felt that the meta force here was several times stronger than before! This was a very terrifying change. The towering giant trees that had died thousands of years ago had green seedlings on the charred and decaying trunks, as if they were about to be reborn!

A strong smell of blood spread over and filled the air. Qin Sheng couldn’t help but frown. He took a closer look, and couldn’t help but inhale a cold breath.

Not far away, a large group of beasts died on the pile of rocks. Most of them were first-level beasts, and some of them were second-level beasts. There were even some third-level beasts.

At this time, looking at the corpses of those beasts, Xia Bingning’s pretty face quickly became serious, “These beasts’ corpses are placed very regularly, and all the beast cores have been taken away, as if they were…”

“This is a soul refining altar. Someone sacrificed all the battle souls of these beasts to obtain the purest soul force!” Qin Sheng said in a deep voice, “It is not suitable to stay here for too long. Those people should be still around here. We need to leave immediately.”

Upon hearing this, Xia Bingning also nodded.

Only evil soul masters would build a soul refining altar, use such cruel methods to kill beasts and obtain their soul force like this. If they encounter those evil soul masters, they were not going to end up well.

According to legends, after the War of Armageddon, the Devil Dragon Wasteland had been cursed, and countless cult demons had been imprisoned here. But now the wasteland was beginning to recover. Trees, flowers and plants were emerging like mushrooms after the rain. and even those old trees that had not decayed for thousands of years were restored to life.

Qin Sheng led a group of students who participated in the assessment to zigzag. There were more and more ancient trees of ten feet high, and even a hundred feet high forest appeared, which made people lose sense of diretions.

As they progressed, they could hear more and more roars from terrifying beasts. The most frightening thing was that Qin Sheng actually took them directly to those dens of third-level, fourth-levle and even fifth-level beasts. Even if the dean of Floating Cloud Academy personally led these freshmen, he would not dare to pass by these dens so blatantly.

“Hey, Qin Sheng, are you leading the wrong way? Why do we feel that we are going deeper and deeper into the wasteland?”

“That’s the point. We just passed by the lair of a fifth level beast. Are you serious?”

Some students felt something was wrong and couldn’t help asking.

“Shut up!” Qin Sheng turned around and rebuked, “There are beasts fighting!”

The Devil Dragon Wasteland was revived, and the meta force was everywhere. Many ancient ruins reappeared, and there were too many treasures and elixir inside. These beasts were fighting for their chances.

In the distance, a giant snake with wings covered in black flame was floating in the air and spitting out black fire continuously towards the stone mountain.

“Oh my God, this is a ninth-level beast–Black Flame Winged Snake.”

A student exclaimed.

Even though they were dozens of miles away, the aura from the Black Flame Winged Snake still made them breathless. Except for Qin Sheng and Xia Bingning, the rest of the students were all prostrate on the ground and shivering.

A ninth-level beast could intimidate peerless masters of the life-through realm, let alone this group of meridian-through weaklings.

On the huge stone mountain was a huge spider. It was hundreds of feet in size, with a huge miserable human face pattern in its abdomen. Its whole body was golden yellow, like it was made of gold. It walked on hard rocks with eight claws and the rocks were split into pieces like tofu.

It was also a ninth-level beast Golden Underworld Spider. Legend had it that it inherited the bloodline of the Golden God Clan, and its strength was very terrifying.

The two nineth-level beasts were vying for a spiritual fruit on the top of the huge stone mountain. Even though they were separated by dozens of miles, Qin Sheng could still feel the strong meta force from the spiritual fruit. What kind of spiritual fruit was it that made the two ninth-level beasts fight. Qin Sheng did not see clearly because they were too far away.

“Growl~”

“Go away, Winged Snake. This spiritual fruit was discovered by me first!” The Golden Underworld Spider was worthy of the trace of bloodline of the Golden God Clan, and it could even speak human language.

On the contrary, the Black Flame Winged Snake could only use meta force to transmit sound. It was arrogant and sending out terrible sounds.

The battle broke out completely, and the surrounding beasts were affected. The afterwinds of the battle shook some fifth-level beasts, or even seventh-level beasts to death, scaring the beasts within a hundred miles to flee the battle zone in groups…

Apparently this was the reason why the beast tide erupted in the Devil Dragon Wasteland. Qin Sheng’s eyes lightened up and he rushed out, wanting to get close to the battle zone and collect the cores or blood of those high-level beasts that had been shaken to death.

The beast core not only contained rich meta force, but also sealed the monster’s battle soul. Therefore, beast cores could exchange for many crystals. Beast cores above third level were especially valuable!

“Qin Sheng, are you courting death? Take us away quickly. The fight between ninth level beasts could easily affect us, and the afterwinds of the battle could kill all of us!”

“Someone has been stunned and need treatment.”

Everyone was afraid of death, and asked Qin Sheng to leave quickly. The aura of a ninth-level beasts was too terrifying.

Qin Sheng didn’t want to give up. He looked at the pile of high-level beasts that had been shaken to death by the afterwinds of the battle, as if it were a mountain of gold and silver. He could see it, but couldn’t get it!

If he was alone, Qin Sheng still had a chance to take a shot and try to dig a few high-level monster cores. However, he didn’t want to cause trouble with these meridian-through students.

“Let’s go.” Qin Sheng looked at the corpses of the high-level beasts with unwillingness, and finally disappeared into the vast wilderness…

In the evening, Qin Sheng actually took them to the back mountain of Dayan City. Not far away was Floating Cloud Academy. Xia Bingning was deeply shocked. She looked at Qin Sheng in surprise. She often went outside for practice, but she was not as familiar with Devil Dragon Mining Area as Qin Sheng!

“Who the hell is this Qin Sheng after all?” Xia Bingning looked at Qin Sheng’s back with suspicion in her mind.

Having survived the crisis, the whole group of students were very excited and shouted loudly to release the pressure of the assessment. And everyone got the tokens issued by senior sister Xia Bingning. As long as they went to Floating Cloud Academy to complete the admission procedures tomorrow morning, they would become formal Flouting Cloud Academy students.

Everyone was very excited and planned to celebrate, and they also invited Qin Sheng to come together.

Qin Sheng shook his head and refused. He felt that his strength was too weak with only two meridians opened up. Although one of them was the legendary saint-level meridian, the amount of meta force needed to activate it was also massive. It had many flaws.

By the way, he had offended Zhao Qingcang. This man was cruel, and he would take revenge on a small offence. And even though Qin Sheng was the heir of his family, he was not in a good situation.

Although he had inherited the memory of Pill Emperor Wanjie, he still need time to grow and excavate

this huge treasure trove.

“I have to become stronger as soon as possible!” Qin Sheng secretly said in his mind. Coupled with the recovery of the Devil Dragon Wasteland, Qin Sheng instinctively felt that Dayan City, no, even Beichen Kingdom was about to change!
