Chapter 598: Dragon Domain

The Nine-Tail Spirit Fox bowed in gratitude. Although her consciousness had been suppressed all this time, it was clear that she was fully aware of what had been happening outside.

"Ancestor..."

All the Nine-Tail Foxes looked at the Nine-Tail Spirit Fox, their eyes welling up with tears once again. The fluctuations emanating from her filled them with a deep sense of reliance.

"My tribe members..."

The Nine-Tail Spirit Fox gently descended from the altar, her eyes showing a hint of softness and guilt as she looked at her tribe members.

"Ancestor has let all of you down... Ancestor is responsible for what happened." A gloomy expression flashed across the Nine-Tail Spirit Fox's eyes as she spoke.

"Back then, I ignited my Demon Spirit to suppress the three Yimo Kings. I originally intended to die along with them, but I underestimated those fellows' tenacious life force. Even though our physical bodies degraded over time, the consciousness of those three continued to be tightly intertwined with my own. Eventually, they invaded my consciousness and suppressed me..."

"There is a blood connection between the members of the Nine-Tail Tribe. Through my body, those three fellows used some insidious methods to interfere with the tribe's bloodline. This caused all the members of the tribe to be unable to reach the highest cultivation stage... This is also the reason for the mediocrity of the Nine-Tail Tribe over the years."

"While you, my tribe members, were at your wits' end, you thought of going to the Ancestral Soul Hall to seek answers. However, this spiritual body of mine had already been taken over by those three fellows. All I could do over the years was watch as one tribe member after another arrived at this place, only to be deceived by them into entering the sea of blood and turning into blood energy..."

The voice of the Nine-Tail Spirit Fox was filled with grief. This helpless feeling of witnessing but being powerless to stop them must have been extremely tormenting for her.

When they heard this, Nine-Tail Tribe members clenched their lips as tears welled up in their big eyes.

"I know that the lives of my tribe members have been extremely bitter over these years... This is my fault." The Nine-Tail Spirit Fox softly said.

"Ancestor is not at fault... It's those wicked Yimo who are to blame," the Village Chief shook her head and replied.

The Nine-Tail Spirit Fox gave a bitter smile. "Fault is a fault, there's no need to argue. Fortunately, with the suppression of those three fellows gone, our Nine-Tail Tribe can rise again."

She turned to look at the blood sea inside the Ancestral Soul Hall and said softly, "This sea of blood has been formed by the strength of the Nine-Tail Tribe's experts over these countless years. It also contains the pure energy of those three Yimo Kings. Activate the formation I left behind and seal this place completely. The energy here will be returned to you. It won't be a problem for the Nine-Tail Tribe to regain its former glory."

The energy here was terrifyingly powerful. If returned to the Nine-Tail Tribe now, it would certainly produce many strong individuals.

Originally, there was a considerable distance between the two places. However, with Xiao Ming's strength, something as small as the distance was reduced to a matter of waving his hand.

However, he didn't directly tear through space to reach this place after leaving the Nine-Tail Tribe. Instead, he had his three female companions engage in battles with the Demonic Beasts along the way to hone their skills, which caused the three women to complain incessantly.

Although they had to endure some hardships, the results were quite noticeable. All three of them had successfully reached the Nirvana Stage, and their combat strength was far superior to others at the same stage.

"The Yuan Power here is so rich!"

The four of them immediately sensed the extraordinary richness of Yuan Power in this place as soon as they arrived in the Dragon Region. It was several times denser than the chaotic Beast War Region. Cultivating in such an environment would undoubtedly yield twice the results with half the effort.

"Who dares to intrude upon our Dragon Domain?!"

Xiao Ming and his companions had only just appeared, but the sound of the wind breaking could already be heard all around. It was clear that the Dragon Tribe's reaction was much faster than that of the Nine-Tail Tribe.

A group of elite warriors clad in dragon-scale armor swiftly arrived and surrounded Xiao Ming's group. These elite warriors exuded extremely formidable auras. Their Yuan Qi intertwined to form a lifelike Dragon Tribe totem. The totem was like a mini coiling dragon. It gave off the feeling of life and a mighty presence.

"This area is accessible only to the Dragon Tribe and friends of the Dragon Tribe. No one else is allowed to enter within a hundred thousand miles of it. Who are you? If you have entered by mistake, please leave now."

In the Demon Domain, strength was paramount, and the Dragon Tribe held a dominant position at the top of the pyramid. But while they ruled with authority, these patrolling guards were no fools. The sudden appearance of Xiao Ming and his group was clearly unusual. Therefore, they did not immediately resort to violence.

"We have come specifically to visit your tribe leader."

Xiao Ming said with a smile. He emitted a hint of aura that immediately made the various Dragon Tribe warriors who were on alert feel a deep-seated panic and tremble from the depths of their souls. This pressure was even more terrifying than that of their own tribe leader!

Fortunately, this feeling only lasted for a moment, preventing them from showing any embarrassment.

The Dragon Tribe warriors, feeling intimidated, swallowed nervously and respectfully bowed.

"Allow us to report to our superiors. Please wait a moment, Sir."

With a nod from Xiao Ming, the lead warrior disappeared through the empty space to report to the high-ranking members of the Dragon Tribe.
