Condemning the Heavens

Chapter 336: 336

Xue Wei was slightly taken back . The Scarlet Blood Bat was a Fierce Beast, not a Primordial Beast, so how was it possible for it to take on a human body and a human speech?

Sensing his confusion, the woman’s lips curled into a self-mocking smile . "We are indeed Fierce Beasts, but there exists a specific herb, a herb named Scarlet Blood Lily, which has only one purpose which is to remold and remake the body and bloodline of a Scarlet Blood Bat and make them become a Primordial Beast .

"This Scarlet Blood Lily blooms with one flower every three thousand years .

"It is about time for the flower to bloom again, and we have already decided on who should be the next bat queen . However, a Scarlet Blood Bat tribe can’t have more than one Scarlet Blood Bat Queen .

"The Scarlet Blood Bat Princess happens to be my daughter . The moment she is going to take the Scarlet Blood Lily, and have consolidated her foundation as a Primordial Beast, we will have to fight to the death .

"I am not willing to fight against my daughter until one of us dies . I had originally planned on committing suicide, but now you arrived, and it is a heaven-sent opportunity . "

The Scarlet Blood Bat Queen looked at Xue Wei, slightly hesitatingly .

"I understand that we are strangers to you," she began again, her voice filled with worries, "but we have no one to rely on . Around two hundred of the older bats and I would like to leave the Thunder Graveyard Island . We would like to encounter the world outside, but we do not have the strength to leave on our own .

"This is where you come into the picture . The Evil Spirit that resides at the center of the island has a beast tag .

"A beast tag is the same as a storage treasure but not really . It contains a small world of its own, and it can store living creatures .

"A beast and a human, or spirit, can enter into an alliance with a blood bond . This blood bond is a sacred thing, and a beast and a human, or spirit, becomes wholly connected .

"They can share their thoughts, and even their lives are connected . The Evil Spirit has made such a blood bond with a Primordial Beast . This Primordial Beast is a rather ferocious creature . It is a Blue-eyed Flood Dragon .

"Although it has the bloodline of an Azure Dragon . However, this can prove to become a real issue for them . You are a real Azure Dragon, so anyone who is of their descent is purely your slave .

"The Evil Spirit is injured . He previously tried to force his way out of the Thunder Twilight Zone but failed, so right now you have the best chance to fight him .

"Our Scarlet Blood Bat Tribe will also help out . I understand that we are asking for a lot, so in exchange for helping us to escape the Thunder Graveyard Island and the Thunder Twilight Zone, we will promise to work for you for the next two hundred years .

"For the next two hundred years, we will follow you and do your bidding . We will stay in the Beast Tag and be called out whenever you need us . "

The Scarlet Blood Bat Queen had been speaking a lot, and she had spoken fast . Her eyes were filled with worry and fear, but also a longing and slight expectations .

Xue Wei looked at the Queen, but before he even had to open his mouth, Luoluo stepped forward, "This big sister, you already helped us," she said with a gentle voice . "Big Brother is not so ruthless as to not return the favors he receives . Don’t worry; Big Brother will take you all out of this depressing danger zone and into a much brighter world outside . "

Hearing her words, the eyes of the Scarlet Blood Bat Queen opened wide in surprise, as she could not help but look at Xue Wei, to ensure that what the child had said was correct .

Xue Wei chuckled and nodded his head, "Our dear Luoluo has already said so . I am not one to not pay back my favors . "

Understanding what he meant, her face filled with joy and excitement . They suddenly had hope!

Xue Wei smiled when he saw their undisguised happiness .

"Tell us everything you know about the Evil Spirit," Xue Wei requested, as he looked at the Scarlet Blood Bat Queen .

"We do not know much about it," she admitted . "We have mainly stayed here within the passage and in the caves that are connected to it . We have not entered the actual ancient battlefield; neither have we gone to the forest of despair . "

"What a fitting name," Xue Wei muttered when he thought back at the remnant soul fragments .

Smiling wryly, the Scarlet Blood Bat Queen nodded her head, "It is indeed a place of despair and horrors . "

"The Evil Spirit, when he is healthy, roams the battlefield . He is continuously searching for soul power, and soul remnants of the King and Emperor ranked experts who were fighting here on the island once upon a time .

"But right now he is injured, so he is likely to be hiding in his lair . It is an immortal cave made by himself that’s at the outskirts of the battlefield . We will have to cross the entire battlefield to get there . "

The Scarlet Blood Bat Queen hesitated for a moment before she continued, "that is not a bad thing though . There might be some treasures along the way . If we are lucky, we might even encounter soul power . Considering you have two spirits in your group, that would be ideal . "

Xue Wei was not too surprised that she knew of the fact that Luoluo and Bai Tianyi were spirits . She was not too familiar with the Evil Spirit, but she had surely sensed his aura before .

"Well, let us get going," Xue Wei said with a smile . He was a lot more casual now than he had been before . Having the protection of thousands of Scarlet Blood Bats made him much calmer .

"Oh right," he paused before exiting the mountain passage, "what should I call you?" he asked as he looked at the Queen .

"Fu," she said casually . The character for her name was the same as the one that spelled the word bat .

"Any last name?" Xue Wei asked, but she just shook her head . She was just a bat; she had no use for a family name .

"Well then, take the name Xue for now . " His family was rather small, so far it only consisted of himself and Luoluo . What harm would there be in adding a Scarlet Blood Bat Queen as well?

Hearing this, Xue Fu felt slightly stunned, but then she felt the warmth . To be considered a person in the same family with a Sovereign Beast, this was indeed a great honor . She had not expected such favor to be bestowed upon her, and her cheeks flushed with pride .

Xue Wei’s childhood was lived as a human . He did not know how revered the Sovereign Beasts were, and he had never grown up thinking he was better than others . In fact, when he grew up, he was always looked down upon and seen as trash . Now that he was able to cultivate, he was still of the mindset that although some people might be geniuses, only hard work was what mattered .

The other bats were also filled with reverence . All of them looked at Xue Wei as if he was a deity who had descended into the mundane world .

They felt that he was capable of fighting against anyone and winning . He was, without a doubt, a Sovereign Beast, and they were unbeatable!

Their faith in Xue Wei was unquestionable .

If the Evil Spirit was against him, he would kill the Evil Spirit . If the heavens were against him, what harm was there in exterminating the heavens too?

They all had complete faith in Xue Wei, anything he wanted to do he could do . They were not even thinking about him being a lower rank than them . Although he was the weakest present, when one looked at cultivation base, he was the one they all looked for to make decisions . He was also the one they felt would save them all when the actual battle would occur .

No one spoke anymore, as they walked out of the passage, and into the battlefield .

The battlefield stretched as far in front of them as far as the eye could see .

Broken bones, armors, banners, and weapons were lying everywhere on the ground . When walking, it was near impossible to find a place to step .

Millions of people had died here . Not all of them were King and Emperor level cultivators, some were Saints, and a few were even Knights .

However, the Knights had died instantly upon entering the battlefield, and that was why so many bones and items could be found at the front of the battlefield .

The further in they came, the fewer skeletons and things they came across, there were at least three to ten meters between each dead person .

Most of these had already been looted, but there were rare herbs everywhere that they harvested one after another .

While the outside was mainly Blood Ginseng and Corpse Grass, a wide variety of herbs were present within the battlefield .

They found Soul Hyacinths, Crimson Blood Sunflowers, Wyvern Tail Lily, Ethereal Light Rose, Radiant Frozen Daisy, Man-Eating Alchemilla, and many more .

These herbs were all immensely rare, and all of them were hundreds of years old, making them able to increase the potency of the herbs that Xue Wei could concoct .

As they came further into the battlefield, they also found various rare ores, and they quickly excavated them .

"My King!" Xue Fu called out and caught the attention of everyone present .

"We have found a top grade essence stone lode," she said humbly, and Xue Wei’s eyes widened in shock when he heard that .

Essence stones were a universal currency throughout the entire world, but at the same time, it was also a resource needed when cultivating .

Essence stones were as the name said, stones that contained heaven and earth essence .

This essence was much denser than it was in the surrounding air, so they could help improving one’s cultivation base much faster than when one relied solely on the usual cultivation speed .

Especially top-ranked stones were very hard to come by, and Xue Wei was ecstatic . Providing for his friends and family was not simple, so if he could mine this lode, he would be able to manage for a long while, both when cultivating, but also when purchasing things .

He, therefore, rushed towards Xue Fu to see how big the lode was, and when he arrived, his eyes widened in shock . It was not a small lode; it was a massive one, so big that there were at least a couple of millions of essence stones, if not more .

"This is going to take some time," Xue Wei muttered, but he was in a brilliant mood, as he began excavating the stones, getting help from the bats and his friends .

Even though they were thousands of creatures who were mining, it ended up taking them four days of intensive work before they had finished taking out every single essence stone .

These essence stones ended up counting a total of eight million, three hundred thousand, and eleven top-ranked essence stones .

It was an astronomical amount, and since the bats had absolutely no use for these stones, all of them were handed over to Xue Wei .

Getting so many essence stones, one of his storage treasures were filled up, with no space for anything else .

Fortunately, he had gained a numerous amount of storage treasures while being on the Thunder Graveyard Island, so he was not about to run out of space .
