Primordial Star Scripture - Chapter 986 - 936: 9 Spots
The valley where Ye Chen was located.
When the “Nine Beasts Cauldron” landed in Ye Chen’s hands, he found that the cauldron was only the size of a palm, yet it was engraved with the images of nine exotic beasts.
Seeing these images, Ye Chen narrowed his eyes; these nine exotic beast engravings were exactly the same as the nine-headed exotic beasts he had seen earlier on the “Heaven Cauldron”!
Though he couldn’t recognize what these nine exotic beasts were, it was clear that they had a great connection with the “Heaven Cauldron” and the “Ancient Forbidden Grounds”!
At this moment, of the nine images on the “Nine Beasts Cauldron,” eight were of normal colors, but one exotic beast image suddenly started to flicker, emitting a mysterious cold light.
Ye Chen looked at this exotic beast image and saw it was a wolf-like creature.
However, unlike a normal wolf beast, this wolf-like exotic beast had three heads, revealing six terrifying fangs, and also had a pair of serrated wings.
“Fire Winged Tusked Beast.”
As Ye Chen studied this exotic beast image that suddenly emitted a cold light, an inexplicable message emanated from the “Nine Beasts Cauldron.”
Ye Chen’s heart shook, and he immediately knew that the first kind of slaughter beast he had to face was probably this “Fire Winged Tusked Beast.”
Awooo! Awooo! Awooo!
Just as Ye Chen flipped over his hand and put away the “Nine Beasts Cauldron,” he heard the sound of wolf howls coming from the front of the valley.
In the next moment, as many as thirty-six wolf-like exotic beasts flashed out from the front, appearing before Ye Chen.
From the “Nine Beasts Cauldron,” the “Fire Winged Tusked Beast” was shown as just a small image.
But when these thirty-six “Fire Winged Tusked Beasts” appeared before Ye Chen, he discovered that each of these exotic beasts was over a hundred feet tall.
Their three heads and six terrifying fangs all emitted a cold light, and more notably, their serrated wings were like two blazing flames, radiating a fiery red glow.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
As Ye Chen observed these “Fire Winged Tusked Beasts,” they spread their wings and flew up from Void Heaven, rushing towards Ye Chen.
Seeing the thirty-six “Fire Winged Tusked Beasts” forming a siege and charging at him, Ye Chen remained unperturbed.
He pointed his finger at these “Fire Winged Tusked Beasts.”
Pft! Pft! Pft! Pft!
Thirty-six sword lights, like thirty-six bolts of lightning, directly struck these thirty-six “Fire Winged Tusked Beasts.”
In an instant, these thirty-six “Fire Winged Tusked Beasts” were slain by Ye Chen on the spot!
“This first exotic beast is only at the ‘Lower Immortal Divine Venerable’ level of battle power, posing no threat to me.”
“It seems that the initial exotic beasts in this Nine Beasts onslaught are not too formidable.”
Ye Chen’s figure flickered, and he arrived beside the corpses of these thirty-six “Fire Winged Tusked Beasts.”
However, next, Ye Chen frowned.
Because Ye Chen did not find the “Beast Spirit” mentioned on the Ancient Stele on these “Fire Winged Tusked Beasts” corpses.
According to the Ancient Stele, only by obtaining the “Beast Spirit” of nine different exotic beasts and placing them into the “Nine Beasts Cauldron” can the “Nine Beasts Cauldron” be activated, allowing entry into the Ancient Temple with the Unsurpassed Divine Fire.
Now, the absence of a “Beast Spirit” from the first exotic beast clearly indicated that Ye Chen had not completed the task of slaying the first exotic beast.
“It seems acquiring a ‘Beast Spirit’ isn’t that easy. There must be other places with these ‘Fire Winged Tusked Beasts’.”
Ye Chen’s figure shook and disappeared from where he stood.
In the next moment, he appeared in another area of the vast valley, and Ye Chen saw three “Fire Winged Tusked Beasts” lying in that area.
This vast valley was about tens of thousands of miles across.
But curiously, the valley was filled with fiery red fog, significantly affecting Divine Sense detection. With Ye Chen’s Divine Soul strength, his Divine Sense detection in the valley could only cover a few hundred miles.
After Ye Chen flew across ten different areas and killed over two hundred “Fire Winged Tusked Beasts,” he finally found the “Beast Spirit” described on the Ancient Stele on one “Fire Winged Tusked Beast’s” corpse—a beast soul shadow identical to the “Fire Winged Tusked Beast,” but in the form of mist.
Ye Chen directly grabbed the “Beast Spirit,” flipped his hand, and the “Nine Beasts Cauldron” appeared in his hand; he then placed the first “Beast Spirit” into the “Nine Beasts Cauldron.”
Swoosh!
At the moment the “Fire Winged Tusked Beast” Beast Spirit was placed into the “Nine Beasts Cauldron,” the cold light on the “Fire Winged Tusked Beast” image vanished, replaced by the image turning from normal black to fiery red.
This clearly indicated that the task of the first exotic beast had been completed by Ye Chen.
Ye Chen also noticed that after completing the task of the first exotic beast, the “Nine Beasts Cauldron” emitted an inexplicable guidance.
A direction pointing towards the “Ancient Temple.”
Ye Chen understood that with this guidance, he could enter the next area to face the next exotic beast.
“According to what was said on the Ancient Stele earlier, those below the Sovereign Realm will gradually converge, so perhaps in the next area, I will encounter others.”
“But there’s no rush to head directly to the next area.”
“The Ancient Stele mentioned that when the nine kinds of exotic beasts appear, the ‘Nine Profound Threads,’ which can collect the ‘Unsurpassed Divine Fire’ from the ‘Ancient Temple,’ will also appear separately.”
“The higher the grade of the ‘Nine Mystic Threads’, the greater the probability of obtaining the ‘Legendary Divine Fire’ in the Ancient Temple.”
“Now, however, we must search for the best first type of ‘Nine Mystic Threads’ in this initial area!”
At this moment, Ye Chen slayed the ‘Firewing Fang Beast’ and obtained the ‘Beast Spirit’, having only covered about a tenth of the initial area’s space.
There were still many areas he hadn’t explored.
The next moment, Ye Chen disappeared from the spot once more.
About an hour later, Ye Chen finally walked out of this first gigantic valley and entered into a massive canyon.
In Ye Chen’s hand was a strand of “fire red silk thread,” which he continuously examined.
“Nine Mystic Threads.”
“This is what the Ancient Stele described as the first type of Nine Mystic Threads—the ‘Fire Red Nine Mysteries Silk’.”
“I’ve searched every part of the gigantic valley, and found hundreds of these Nine Mystic Threads, yet the strand in my hand is the most mystical.”
“And this strand of ‘Nine Mystic Threads’ was the hardest to acquire. It was hidden in a mysterious stone cave space. If not for my strong Divine Soul, I might not have discovered it.”
“I don’t even know what grade this ‘Nine Mystic Threads’ has reached.”
Ye Chen discovered that the strand of “Fire Red Nine Mystic Threads” in his hand was engraved with nine spots.
Ye Chen speculated that this probably represented the grade of the ‘Fire Red Nine Mystic Threads’.
…
What Ye Chen didn’t know was that at this time, in other valleys, many martial artists below the Sovereign Realm had also obtained the ‘Fire Red Nine Mystic Threads’.
The first type of Exotic Beast, the ‘Firewing Fang Beast’, all had Lower Immortal Divine Venerable level combat power. For the members of the Blood Wing Clan and Nine Flames Clan who entered, they posed no threat, allowing everyone to slay them smoothly and ultimately obtain the ‘Beast Spirit’.
However, the ‘Fire Red Nine Mystic Threads’ that everyone obtained varied greatly.
Some searched all the valley areas and finally found what they considered the most precious ‘Fire Red Nine Mystic Threads’.
Others were obstructed by many areas within the valley, unable to enter, and could only search within the range they could traverse, ultimately seizing the best ‘Nine Mystic Threads’ they could find.
If Ye Chen could see all the Nine Mystic Threads in everyone’s hands, he would surely find that everyone’s first type of Nine Mystic Threads was red in color, with spots engraved on them.
But unlike the nine-spotted ‘Fire Red Nine Mystic Threads’ he acquired, most of the other people’s Nine Mystic Threads had fewer than six spots, with only a little over twenty percent having more than six spots.
Like Ye Chen, only eight people obtained the nine-spotted ones.
Among them, the little girl Cai Xiao’er, and the Blood Wing Clan’s top trainees Xueling Chan and Blood Flying Yan, all obtained nine-spotted ‘Fire Red Nine Mystic Threads’.
“Fortunately, my ‘Nine Spirits Divine Body’ can sense things related to fire, allowing me to discover this strand of ‘Nine Mystic Threads’.” Cai Xiao’er nodded her little head in satisfaction as she looked at the Nine Mystic Threads in her hand.
Then she looked ahead on her path.
In front of her, like Ye Chen, she also faced a vast canyon area.
Xueling Chan and Blood Flying Yan both stood outside two gigantic canyons at this moment.
As they looked at the ‘Nine Mystic Threads’ they just obtained from the first area, a gleam flashed in their eyes: “Nine is a special number. These nine spots most likely represent the highest grade of the ‘Nine Mystic Threads’.”
“My power allowed me to thoroughly search all areas of the first valley. With my unique Divine Skills, I didn’t miss even the hidden areas.”
“There’s no way anyone found a Nine Mystic Threads better than mine!”
“Hmph, in total, nine types of Exotic Beasts must be slain to obtain nine types of Nine Mystic Threads. Later on, I’ll definitely find the other eight most precious Nine Mystic Threads as well.”
“In the end, the Legendary Divine Fire in the Ancient Temple will definitely be mine!”
Xueling Chan and Blood Flying Yan both carried absolute confidence.
…
Upon entering the second area—the gigantic canyon, Ye Chen immediately felt that his Divine Sense was being suppressed more severely, only able to probe a few dozen miles around.
Ye Chen also noticed that the second pattern on the ‘Nine Beast Cauldron’ emitted a chilling light.
This second pattern depicted an Exotic Beast resembling a spider, but unlike normal spiders, its body was engraved with a special flame spiral, looking extremely bizarre.
“Flame Devouring Demon Spider.”
Ye Chen also sensed the name of this Exotic Beast from the ‘Nine Beast Cauldron’.
As Ye Chen walked about a few hundred feet deep into the second area—the gigantic canyon, suddenly, an enormous spider web over a hundred feet wide descended from the sky, attempting to completely ensnare Ye Chen within it.
Looking up through the web, he saw an enormous spider over dozens of feet tall with eight legs emerging.
This giant spider’s body displayed a special flame spiral on its stomach and back.
Even from below, Ye Chen could clearly see that these were bizarre flame spirals of a dark blue color.
Ye Chen also found out that this giant spider’s combat power was slightly stronger than the first type of Exotic Beast, the ‘Firewing Fang Beast’, reaching the Mid Immortal Divine Venerable level directly.
