660 Bloodline of the Dragon Clan

Hou Jingfeng and Gong Zhangyan smashed onto the ground one after another. Dust flew into the air. They clutched their chests and vomited a great deal of blood. Their faces were pale, and their complexions pasty. Their eyes began to look hazy and unfocused.

After a moment of subconscious struggling, the two of them laid on the ground with dazed expressions. They were not able to get up again.

Pei Fengwu took a deep breath. She could tell from one glance that the injuries the two had suffered were serious. It was likely that their souls had been injured. What had happened after they went in? Could there be something even more terrifying in the altar?

The two had so badly injured in a very short space of time. With their capabilities, they should have been able to hold out for longer, even if they were going head to head with three mythical beasts.

Neither of them had the beast king's treasure box with them. They had evidently failed the task.

Pei Fengwu glanced at Mo Wen. Could he have known early on that it taking the treasure box from the altar would not be an easy task?

Mo Wen smirked. If it was that simple, it would not have needed four people to complete the task. Furthermore, he could sense that there was an unusual power inside the altar.

Of course, he only knew that something different was inside the altar. He had not expected that the two would be so badly affected by just a few moments inside the light film surrounding the altar. What exactly was inside it? It could injure two genius warriors who were in the post-Golden Elixir realm!

"Mo Wen…" Pei Fengwu's expression turned grave. The unknown made one even more afraid. What exactly was inside the altar?

Mo Wen waved his hand. Two balls of red light flew out from his sleeve. They were low-grade healing lights.

Mo Wen had quite a few of them, so he was not afraid of using them on others.

The two balls of red light landed on Hou Jingfeng and Gong Zhangyan respectively. The red light enveloped their bodies in the blink of an eye as if it was a layer of embryonic membrane.

The two had been heavily injured and could not use the healing light on themselves. Mo Wen did not know if they would die if he did not heal them immediately, but they would definitely be eaten by monstrous beasts.

If any other circumstances, Mo Wen would not have saved them. However, things were different right now. Without the two others, it was almost impossible to complete the task.

The results of the Healing Lights were spectacular. Mo Wen could see their injuries healing as he looked at them. Their complexions improved hugely in the blink of an eye.

However, the two were too badly injured for the low-grade healing light to heal them completely. Only a mid-grade healing light would be able to do that.

However, Mo Wen only had one mid-grade healing light. He would not, of course, use it on someone else.

In just moments, the injuries of the two took a turn for the better with the help of the low-grade healing light. The murky look in their eyes gradually grew clear.

The healing lights could not only heal physical bodies but could also heal injuries to the soul. This was something that had surprised Mo Wen.

His soul had been damaged before when the Cries of Hades Bell had been activated by the corpse puppet. He had been completely healed after using the healing lights.

Mo Wen had quickly understood that the most serious injuries that the two had suffered were not physical, but were injuries to the soul.

The three mythical beasts did not attack but guarded the area in front of the altar, looking at Mo Wen and the others warily.

Allowing Hou Jingfeng and Gong Zhangyan to enter was a failure on their part. They naturally did not want that to happen again. As such, the three mythical beasts abandoned their pursuit of Mo Wen and Pei Fengwu as one and returned to guard the altar.

The three mythical beasts looked at them in an unfriendly manner. As soon as they sensed the humans approaching the altar, they would immediately unleash their greatest power to destroy their enemies completely.

Hou Jingfeng and Gong Zhangyan slowly regained consciousness from their dazed state. They looked left and right and immediately recalled what had happened to them.

The two were so frightened that they sweated profusely. They had lost consciousness in such a dangerous place. They would be powerless if someone tried to kill them.

Pei Fengwu harrumphed lightly. "Mo Wen saved the two of you, you idiots." She was rather dissatisfied with how Hou Jingfeng and Gong Zhangyan had only cared about their own interests and had disregarded those of the entire team. Mo Wen seemed to be the better person by quite a long way, no matter how she thought about it. He had been willing to save them.

Gong Zhangyan and Hou Jingfeng were shocked when they heard that Mo Wen had saved their lives. Gong Zhangyan looked at Mo Wen with a complicated expression. He lowered his eyes and did not say anything.

Hou Jingfeng harrumphed and a look of disdain flashed in his eyes. Mo Wen had saved him because he needed him right now. It was not because he was kind. He had almost died at Mo Wen's hands earlier.

Mo Wen glanced at the others. "The three of you think of a way to block the three mythical beasts for a moment. I will go into the altar to take a look," he said lightly.

Even though he knew that it was scary and dangerous inside the altar, he was not willing to give up. Since Hou Jingfeng and Gong Zhangyan were able to leave the place alive, it should not be too dangerous.

"Mo Wen, there are unknown dangers in the altar. Have you considered this carefully?" Pei Fengwu frowned. She had not expected that Mo Wen would still want to enter the altar at a time like this. Hou Jingfeng and Gong Zhangyan had almost died inside. Could he manage it alone?

Her eyes flashed and she glanced at Hou Jingfeng and Gong Zhangyan. She hoped that the two could describe the situation inside the altar.

"You helped me earlier and since you wish to enter, I will definitely help you to restrain the mythical beasts." Hou Jingfeng acted as if he did not see Pei Fengwu's glance at him. Instead, he turned to look at Mo Wen and spoke lightly. He sniggered coldly in his heart. Since Mo Wen was seeking death, he would not stop him.

He was not interested in telling him what happened on the altar. Mo Wen could go inside the altar to take a look if he wanted to know.

He hoped that Mo Wen would not come out ever again.

Gong Zhangyan pursed his lips and did not speak. He only took out his spiritual weapon and gestured that he would work with Mo Wen and would restrain the mythical beast.

Pei Fengwu's expression was ugly. She had not expected that the two were still going against Mo Wen at a time like this. They refused to talk about what happened on the altar.

"Alright, then you all will be in charge of restraining the mythical beasts." Mo Wen nodded. He had no intentions of grilling them.

Pei Fengwu sighed lightly and did not speak. She flew up into the air to harass the Cyan Light Eagle.

The Cyan Light Eagle cried angrily when it saw Pei Fengwu approaching it of her own accord once again. It would not have bothered with this woman usually. It would definitely be able to kill her if they continued to fight.

However, the important thing now was to guard the altar: not fight with others.

The attention of all three mythical beasts was split. They could not completely let go of their duties. As such, their abilities were not as strong as they could be.

Hou Jingfeng and Gong Zhangyan attacked at the same time. They tackled the Erupting Inferno Lion and the blue-eyed Earth Shattering Pangolin.

The three humans and three beasts fought. However, this time, the three mythical beasts refused to be too far away from the altar. They kept an eye on its surroundings at all times, afraid that someone would take the opportunity to enter the altar.

Mo Wen frowned. The three mythical beasts had all learned their lesson. They were not too far away from the altar. They would have time to discover and attack anyone who thought about entering it. Even with Pei Fengwu and the other two holding the beasts back, the humans' abilities were not enough to threaten the three mythical beasts.

If someone prepared to enter the altar, it was very likely that the beasts would give up defending themselves against the humans' attacks and would instead turn to attack the person entering the altar.

Mo Wen's body shimmered and he flew towards the altar. As long as he could defend himself against an attack from the first mythical beast, he would be able to enter it.

After a few shimmers, Mo Wen finally appeared in front of the altar.

Indeed, the three mythical beasts had, almost at the same time, given up on Pei Fengwu and the others. They allowed the humans to attack them as they roared in anger, preparing to attack Mo Wen with all they had.

However, Mo Wen had long been prepared. He was not flustered and used the three Glory techniques and two top grade spiritual weapons. He managed to block the first combined attack from the three beasts.

However, the Five Beast Hoops and the Gray Mountain Peak were quickly rendered useless. Mo Wen paled and a large burst of energy tossed him into the air. He smashed onto the protective shield of the altar behind him. There was a splutter and Mo Wen fell into the altar.

There was a flash of light and everything before him became clear.

Mo Wen found himself standing on an enormous altar. It was the size of several football fields. It was wide and empty.

In the middle of the altar was a pillar of white light. Inside the pillar of light, floated a white jade treasure box.

It was the Beast King's treasure, and that was Mo Wen's goal.

However, he did not immediately pick up the white jade treasure box. Instead, he surveyed his surroundings warily.

Not far away from the white jade treasure box was an enormous figure. The figure was much larger than the four Lord Monstrous Beasts. Its aura made even Mo Wen shudder in shock.

This monstrous beast was the ruler of the ancient city. It was the Beast King Grandmaster.

It was an enormous monstrous beast that had a head the size of a small mountain. It was covered in extremely vibrant bright red scales, giving it the appearance of a burning flame.

A Red Scaled Earth Dragon!

Mo Wen's pupils shrank. The beast king bore the bloodline of the Dragon Clan. It had the faint aura of a dragon.

The Dragon Clan! It was the most powerful of all the demon clans. In the past, the clan had ruled over the demon clans for a long period of time.

The bloodline of the Dragon Clan had a strong ability to spread. Many monstrous beasts had some dragon blood. One could say that the Dragon Clan was the most common clan for monstrous beasts to belong to.

However, a pure dragon clan bloodline was extremely rare. Even though there were many monstrous beasts with dragon blood, a monstrous beast with pure dragon blood was extremely unusual.

The Red Scaled Earth Dragon was a monstrous beast with dragon blood. It was from the Earth Dragon Clan.

However, the Red Scaled Earth Dragon was not a pure-blooded dragon. One could only say that it had a little earth dragon blood. Their ancestors were pure-blooded Red Flame Dragons.

Red Flame Dragons were true earth dragons.

Of course, there was a wide variety of earth dragons. Other than the Red Flame Dragons, there were Thunder Dragons, Overlord Dragons, Horned Sword Dragons, and other pure blooded dragon clans.

Disregarding the rare existence of these pure blooded dragons, one could say that monstrous beasts with dragon blood were all extremely powerful. Other than unusually talented monstrous beasts, ordinary monstrous beasts could not be compared to monstrous beasts with dragon blood.

Of course, the bloodline of the Dragon Clan was the most powerful bloodline amongst demon clans. The legendary demonic world was large and limitless. There were more than 10 demonic clan bloodlines that were no weaker than the Dragon Clan bloodlines.
