Xu Zimei revealed himself to Feng Jiu and the others, admitting he killed their ancestor, the Pure Yang Phoenix Emperor. Despite their shock and fear, Xu Zimei sought information about Great Emperor Tianqi, which Elder Quan of the Long-haired White Dog Clan provided. Quan Lao explained that Great Emperor Tianqi's descendants live hidden within Monster Soul Cliff, a place formerly occupied by the Tyrannosaur Clan.

At the same time.

Inside the camp where Ba Tian was located.

He was drinking and eating meat voraciously.

As a member of the Tyrannosaur Clan, they only eat meat, and they don't care whether it's human race or monster race meat.

"L... Lord, something terrible has happened."

A monster race member rushed in frantically.

Halfway through, he couldn't keep his balance and stumbled, falling directly to the ground.

"Stand up, look at yourself, what a disgrace," Ba Tian said indifferently.

His brow furrowed, looking incredibly imposing.

He said, "What happened? Speak slowly."

"King Zhu Tiangang went in pursuit of the humans and has been found dead by a member of the monster race."

The monster race member said in horror.

"It seems to have been dismembered by the humans with a knife."

Upon hearing this, Ba Tian was suddenly enraged.

However, he hid his emotions.

He was much more cautious compared to Zhu Tiangang.

A human venturing alone into the deep heart of monster territory was already suspicious.

Moreover, possessing such strength.

It must be noted that in the monster race, Zhu Tiangang was only second to Ba Tian himself, others couldn't easily defeat him.

Yet Ba Tian could not remain silent on this matter.

Such an important monster race figure was dead; if Ba Tian did nothing, unified monster hearts could cause trouble for his rule.

Thus, Ba Tian thought for a moment.

He directly said, "All members of the monster race, heed my command, find the human presence, and we shall fight together to avenge King Zhu Tiangang."

Ba Tian chose a compromise approach.

That is, prioritizing numbers and using force to overwhelm.

Once the monster race weakened the humans sufficiently, he would strike, ensuring foolproof success.

This was Ba Tian's clever plan.

Under his command, all monster race members under his control took action.

...…

Meanwhile, Xu Zimei, following the route told by Quan Lao, began searching for Monster Soul Cliff.

The characteristics of this Monster Soul Cliff were very apparent.

Because the cliff was thousands of meters high, souls ascended with the mist, thus named Monster Soul Cliff.

Given its obvious features.

As Xu Zimei traversed space, his gaze pierced through countless mists, sensing every place.

He quickly found this location.

He descended from the sky, landing above Monster Soul Cliff.

The cliff's depths were unfathomable, blanketed in white mist, with souls drifting like sleepwalkers.

Above, the souls would completely dissipate.

It was a very peculiar sight.

Though countless people had explored, none found answers; gradually, no one cared anymore.

Xu Zimei's gaze shifted to the bottom of the cliff.

Even from kilometers away, he could clearly see the scene inside.

If descendants of Great Emperor Tianqi were here, they wouldn't escape his gaze.

"Found it!"

After surveying for a while, Xu Zimei's eyes brightened as he finally spotted some figures.

Though yet uncertain if they were descendants of Great Emperor Tianqi.

He descended swiftly, leaping towards the bottom of the cliff.

...…

"Brother, I'm scared!"

Zhong Shanxue hid in the depths of a dark cave, trembling all over.

Beside her, a man dressed in a black robe, resting on bedding, named Zhong Shanshen.

He was the brother; at the moment, he held an axe in his hand.

An ordinary axe for chopping wood.

In his other hand was a Jade Pendant.

The Jade Pendant was cracked, faint halos emanating from it.

"Don't worry, Shanxue," Zhong Shanshen said.

"Those monsters dare not enter casually, brother will protect you."

Despite his own fears.

But to protect his sister, he had no choice.

"Brother, has Ancestor run into trouble?" Zhong Shanxue couldn't help but ask.

"Don't speak such nonsense, Ancestor couldn't be troubled," Zhong Shanshen replied.

"But our protective Jade Pendant is broken," Zhong Shanxue said.

"When Father handed this Jade Pendant to us, he said as long as Ancestor existed, our family would continue flourishing."

"Even if we don't cultivate, we won't fear harassment from any demons or monsters."

"Yet now the Jade Pendant's broken, Uncle and others have died in battle."

Upon hearing his sister's words, Zhong Shanshen remained silent for a moment.

He indeed had such suspicions in his heart.

But he couldn't say it, as it was their sole hope.

Otherwise, in monster territory, how would they survive?

Moreover, the current monster race was chaotic; staying longer wasn't a viable option.

Originally, their family had plans to leave.

Unexpectedly, such an incident occurred: the protective Jade Pendant shattered, and their kin perished, becoming food for Monster Beasts.

Only he and his sister were left with the last protective Jade Pendant.

And the Jade Pendant already cracked, bound to break soon.

Outside the cave, footsteps approached.

The footsteps sounded heavy, clearly those of a Monster Beast.

"Don't make a sound," Zhong Shanshen whispered to his sister.

Outside the cave, the monster race was still searching for the siblings.

Since the Long-haired White Dog clan was driven away, the land of Monster Soul Cliff had been occupied by the White Roaring Tiger race.

They also followed the command of Ba Tian's subordinates.

These White Roaring Tigers differed greatly from ordinary tigers, walking upright with various weapons at their waist.

Their limbs were sharp, especially their fur, like bronze heads and iron arms.

This White Roaring Tiger race excelled in both attack and defense, as well as speed, among the monster race.

Their only weakness was their weak bloodline, making it difficult to progress further later on.

In the monster race, bloodline was highly valued.

If a monster race member could achieve ancestral bloodline, their future prospects increased.

At that moment, a dozen White Roaring Tigers searched outside.

One tiger said, "Recently the food's been too bland; now encountering some humans, how could we let them escape?"

"The Long-haired White Dog clan was too worthless; these humans survived here for so long peacefully."

"This time is crucial; Ba Tian's key moment to break Phoenix Imprisoning Phoenix.

No one should leave posts unattended; everyone guard these lands well."

"Once the dust settles and territories are divided, perhaps this land will belong to our White Roaring Tiger race."

The tigers chatted among themselves, then footsteps resounded.

As the monster race had very sensitive hearing.

All tigers turned, shouting, "Who's there?"

"Why is it a human?"

"The human who just escaped?"

The tigers saw Xu Zimei's figure, each began smiling cruelly.
