Little Sorcerer, Divine Doctor-Chapter 741 - 234: Legends of the Eight Desolates
The group of people brought by the Fourth Elder are truly the elite of the Mainland Magic Elite Camp. With their talent and strength, they didn’t gain such honor even in the new recruits’ trial initially.
What is Yun Sheng’s cultivation level?
She joined the camp not more than a couple of years ago, and her cultivation level had just broken through to a Holy Mage. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚
Frankly speaking, such people are not worthy of standing here, on an equal footing with them.
Yun Sheng had anticipated that some wouldn’t believe it, so without further ado, she took out a pouch from the Beast Language Ring.
As the pouch was tipped over, more than a thousand soul stones rolled out noisily.
What was most rare was that all these soul stones were the same size, and their color and shape were identical.
"These are all soul stones of the Blood Teeth Crocodile, and they are in good condition," the Fourth Elder inspected.
"I have also observed it, her battle record has no problems," the Second Elder also testified personally.
Feng Tian felt somewhat annoyed; he did not expect to be defeated by someone a level lower in the Magic Realm.
The Second Elder has already announced the results, which prove, indeed, that Yun Sheng’s performance was merited.
"Here is a Soul Cleansing Pill as a reward for first place. As for the second and third places, you will receive the opportunity to learn advanced magic, which will be awarded once we return to the Elite Camp," due to this unexpected incident of trainees’ disappearance, the Second Elder currently had no mindset to think about the new recruits’ trial.
Yun Sheng received the Soul Cleansing Pill, but alas, she couldn’t find the occasion to use it immediately.
After concluding the affairs of the new recruits’ trial, the Second Elder and Fourth Elder discussed through the night, and soon they had a plan.
"Due to today’s urgent situation, we must quickly find those more than twenty trainees. The Fourth Elder and I have decided to form a temporary battle team to carry out this rescue mission. Before that, I want to tell you all some things about the Dutian Beast Blood Realm, which could be said to be the biggest secret of the Dutian Beast Blood Realm."
The Second Elder analyzed the current situation and decided to disclose the matters of the Beast Blood Realm to the public.
Upon hearing this, the new trainees all showed a curious expression, while the older trainees, especially Liu Tongtian and Lan, looked indifferent, clearly already aware of the secrets of the Beast Blood Realm.
The Second Elder departed from his usually amiable demeanor, appearing very solemn.
"I believe that everyone here should know about the origins of the Dutian Beast Blood Realm. The continent’s strongest Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts also gained fame in the Beast Blood Realm. Do you also know about the strongest eight great beast clans on the continent thousands of years ago?"
Gu Feng thought for a moment, "It’s recorded in the ’Brief History of the Continent’ that the strongest eight Great Beast God families in ancient times, also called the Eight Desolate Beast Clans, encompass the Black Qilin, Jiuluan, Heavenly Fox, Ba Snake, Pengyu Clan, Azure Nether Wolf, Bimong, and Di Clan. It’s said that these eight great desolate beast leaders perished in this Dutian Beast Blood Realm."
What Gu Feng mentioned was something most of the people present already knew.
On the Wuji Continent, whether they are Martial Artists, Mages, or Summoners, upon entering the Martial Arts Hall, Magic Temple, or Summoning Institute, they all need to study the corresponding ’Brief History of the Continent,’ which includes records about the Human Clan’s greatest enemies, the Eight Desolate Beast Clan, the Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts, and the Eight Great Masters.
The ’Brief History of the Continent’ starts with the Chapter on the Eight Desolates.
About five thousand years ago, the Wuji Continent was completely ruled by the Beast Clan.
The Beast Clan was debauched, imposed heavy taxes, and even enslaved the Human Clan who, weakly subjugated, were enslaved for thousands of years.
It was then that eight extraordinarily talented powerhouses emerged from the Human Clan. They were the greatest Mages, Warriors, and Summoners on the continent at that time.
These eight powerhouses found the continent’s most outstanding Artifact Refining Master to forge the Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts, and vowed to drive out the Beast Clan.
The great war erupted, and nearly the entire continent was plunged into turmoil.
The flames of war spread across the continent, with nearly ninety percent of the Human Clan and Beast Clan being involved.
In the end, the Eight Great Masters and the clan leaders of the Eight Desolate Beast Clans, gathered a million troops, vowing to fight to the death.
At that time, the Eight Great Masters and the eight beast clan leaders, all possessed terrifying strength capable of destroying heaven and earth, and they worried that a final desperate struggle might involve the entire continent.
No one desired, at the end of the great war, to inherit a continent riddled with scars.
In order to prevent catastrophe to all living beings, they used supreme magic to temporarily create a Magic Space called the Blood Realm.
The Blood Realm, which is the precursor to today’s Dutian Beast Blood Realm, was also the battlefield where the million troops of the Human Clan and Beast Clan fought bitterly.
The Beast Clan and the Human Clan competed for dominion over the continent, and in the end, the eight human masters, with the Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts, beheaded the eight great clan leaders and used the blood of the eight clan leaders to draw an invincible Magic Array, finally quelling the nearly century-long gruesome war.
That Magic Array is the Dutian Blood Seal located in the most central area of the Beast Blood Realm.
Despite the beheading of the eight great clan leaders, a large number of demon beasts and demon soldiers were trapped in the Blood Realm, and eventually, they were trapped alive and died in the Dutian Blood Realm, forming mountains of corpses and seas of blood over the years, congealing into blood fiends, making even the air toxic.
These blood fiends, accumulated over years, formed the Beast Blood Cloud.
Some of the Beast Blood Cloud hatched within the Dutian Blood Realm, turning into the demon beasts that today roam the Beast Blood Realm, while others slipped through the cracks of the Blood Realm, entering the Wuji Continent.
This is what the trainees present know from the brief recorded history of the continent.
"Second Elder, what does this have to do with our rescue mission this time?" Gu Feng’s question was also everyone else’s.
"The brief history of the continent only records a part of the facts. Within it, there lies a secret unknown to the public. That is, the thought-to-be long-extinct Eight Desolate Beast Clan has not actually been completely exterminated," sighed the Second Elder.
"What?" The trainees were all utterly shocked upon hearing this.
Yun Sheng’s heart also skipped a beat.
She herself is a descendant of the Eight Desolate Beast Clan, but she never imagined, aside from her mother Hu Jiusheng, that there were other descendants of the Eight Desolate Beast Clan alive in this world.
History always records the most glorified side of the victors.
The descendants of the Eight Great Masters established several great countries on the Wuji Continent, and their descendants also whitewashed the facts.
In the continent, only a very few history books record that although the Eight Great Masters killed the clan leaders of the Eight Desolate Beast Clan.
However, those eight desolate beast clan leaders were also once formidable supreme masters and in their dying moments, they used the last strand of Divine Power to open a pathway in the Blood Realm.
Through that secret passage, the clan leaders of the Eight Desolate Beast Clan sent the last bloodline of their respective tribes to another continent.
"Having said this, you should also have roughly guessed the cause of this incident," the Second Elder had learned of these matters from the personal notebooks of the founders of the Mainland Elite Camp.
If the Mainland Elite Camp is aware of this matter, then other powers on the continent likely know it to some extent as well.
"That is to say, the Eight Desolate Beast Clan has not been extinguished at all, and their descendants might still be thriving on another continent?" Upon hearing this, the trainees became agitated and restless.
