Chapter 452: Natural Beast, Qiongqi. Massacre In West Mountain.

　　“So the ‘Classics of Mountains and Seas’ is a cookbook?”

　　Yang Jian and Ao Cheng had an instant realization. They kept nodding. “No wonder, thank you Jade Emperor and Empress for explaining!”

　　Their problems were instantly resolved.

　　Of course, what realm was the expert in? He pointed out so many beasts, how was he merely joking around? He wanted to eat them!

　　The Jade Emperor said in a serious tone, “The expert came to our world, it’s our blessing! He merely wants to taste those beasts. This is a small matter. We must make it happen!”

　　Ao Cheng nodded and agreed, “Jade Emperor’s right. After all the time spent with the expert, he does enjoy good food. The rarer the species, the more the expert enjoys it. We must take this seriously!”

　　Yang Jian could no longer wait. “Then what are we waiting for? Now that the expert gave us the cookbook, we must hurry and hunt them down for the expert! If I can’t even do this well, I might as well quit being a Judicial God!”

　　He had gained so much from the expert, all he wanted to do was to repay him. Once he knew that the expert liked to eat wild meat, he could no longer wait. How he wished to go hunting right away!

　　“These beasts don’t look ordinary. No wonder the expert kept them in his cookbook, he even made them into a book! It’s their honor!”

　　The Jade Emperor nodded. He continued, “We can’t be too hurried. I’ll ask my people to search for these creatures in the three realms. Once we come across these strange creatures, we’ll form a group to hunt them down!”

　　Meanwhile, along with a blood-red flash, a small dot appeared in the Lingxiao palace. A figure was then formed. It was Mosquito Taoist.

　　She still had the black robe on and her face was not showing. However, her chest was rising up and down. She was not calm. She said with a serious tone, “I’ve contacted Styx Laozu. He was at a western mountain in the Immortal Realm. A few sects and towns were massacred by him!”

　　Recently, she had been searching for Styx Laozu. After going to the Bloody Sea, she realized that Styx Laozu was not to be found. He had gone out to cause a scene!

　　The Jade Emperor’s face straightened. He growled, “What a bastard! How dare he!?”

　　The destructiveness of a Quasi-Saint massacring the public is beyond one’s imagination. The people were so weak in comparison. How would the people be able to take it?

　　The Empress said in a low voice, “Do you know what he’s trying to do?”

　　Mosquito Taoist shook her head. “He seems to be planning something big. I only know he’s trying to create a boundless massacre. He even contacted me. He wants me to join him. Furthermore, according to what he said, he has a very powerful ancient Natural Beast named Qiongqi with him.”

　　The so-called Natural Beast was the same as Mosquito Taoist. The Bloody Sea was known for its filth. It made Styx Laozu and Mosquito Taoist. Qiongqi was made by the eerie wind and it symbolized violence. It could fly, was good at hiding, and liked eating humans!

　　“Qiongqi?”

　　The faces of the crowd straightened, especially Yang Jian. His heart was thumping quickly. His third eye opened again and played a projection.

　　Instantly, a beast was shown.

　　It was a Natural Beast with black thorns all over it. It looked like a tiger on the outside and it was the size of a cow with a pair of wings on its back. There was even a pair of black deer horns on its head. It looked fierce and violent.

　　Yang Jian asked, “You meant this dish?”

　　He already called it a dish?

　　Mosquito Taoist felt that Yang Jian’s thinking was too absurd. Obviously, this was not the time to argue about this. He said, “I haven’t seen it before. I rushed over here once I heard about this news.”

　　“This should be it, this is likely to be one of the specified dishes!” the Jade Emperor said, his eyes filled with joy. He said, “It’s so easy to have found one! We did it without any effort!”

　　The Empress frowned. She was thinking deeply as she said, “Jade Emperor, the expert just handed us the cookbook, and right away, we learned that Qiongqi and Styx Laozu are massacring the masses. Do you think this is all a coincidence?”

　　Now that she mentioned it, it was apparent.

　　With that said, everyone jolted.

　　The Jade Emperor’s eyes started to glow. He cried out, “Right, he’s the expert! Of course, he’d know about Styx Laozu’s doings. He must be upset. His goal isn’t just having Qiongqi for a dish, he doesn’t want Styx Laozu to get away!”

　　“The expert wants us to soothe the chaos!” Ao Cheng said emotionally. “Nothing goes miscalculated, everything’s within the grasp of the expert!”

　　“Styx Laozu mustn’t get away! Regardless if it was an order from the expert or for the sake of the people!” Yang Jian said with a solemn look. “Jade Emperor, I’d like to call for a war!”

　　“Of course, there’ll be war! However, the Styx Laozu is quite powerful, he won’t give in so easily! We must be fully prepared!”

　　Jade Emperor continued, “This is an order from the expert. We must win the war, and we must win it beautifully! We’ll put in all of our effort, we’ll join forces to make sure nothing goes wrong!”

　　Ao Cheng added on the side, “Most importantly, we must bring back the dish!”

　　“This is indeed a very important point,” the Jade Emperor nodded. He then said, “Mosquito Taoist, go and meet with Styx Laozu. Find out what he’s planning to do! If there’s an opportunity to have a surprise attack, it’d be ideal!”

　　Mosquito Taoist nodded. She turned into a blood-red light and disappeared.

　　Meanwhile, at the West Mountain.

　　The General of the Bloody Sea was followed by Black and White Impermanence. They were walking down a village.

　　The village was in a deep mess. There were dead bodies everywhere with rivers filled with blood. It was a heart-breaking sight.

　　Black Impermanence’s face darkened. “This is the sixteenth incident.”

　　“Someone’s massacring the entire West Mountain. They didn’t even let the souls go easily.” White Impermanence frowned. His face did not seem pleasant. “Who’s so daring?”

　　In the Underworld, they noticed that many dead people were coming from this area. More importantly, these people died but their souls did not return to the Underworld. This was very strange.

　　The Onis they sent out to investigate did not make it back.

　　This incident caught their attention. Thus, they came to investigate in person.

　　White Impermanence said, “The dead ones include both ordinary people and cultivators as high ranking as Golden Immortals. The person who causes this is quite powerful himself. And very cruel!”

　　Someone high ranking massacring ordinary people was breaking the law!

　　“This person might be cultivating a very evil power. It’s likely related to souls.” The General of Bloody Sea did not look well as he said, “There’s the smell of death coming from that direction. You both should be careful, this person’s powerful and cruel. He probably has something with him!”

　　On the other side, inside a Sect.

　　A strong scent of blood filled the air, overwhelming the entire Sect. Even the sky had turned bloody red.

　　The Sect had a lot of land. It was built beside a large lake. The palace was well built with bridges and pillars. Meanwhile, screams were resonating in the air.

　　Spells filled the air like fireworks. They were flashing nonstop with many figures fighting in the air.

　　Those who fought with the cultivators were in red robes. There were males and females. The males were evil-looking and the females were evil and beautiful. Each of them was filled with violence.

　　Meanwhile, a dark figure suddenly appeared in the sky. It had a pair of big wings, projecting a gigantic shadow on the ground. It rushed toward the palace and grabbed an elder with its hands.

　　The elder was casting a spell. He jumped as he was caught off guard. Before he could react, the beast opened its mouth and ate him.

　　The beast did not swallow him. In fact, it was enjoying the fear and terror coming out of the elder. The more terrified its food was, the tastier it became. Fear was also a taste in itself.

　　It was Qiongqi.

　　Styx Laozu appeared beside Qiongqi. He smiled and asked, “What do you think?”

　　Qiongqi looked at Styx Laozu. “Good, I’ve not been as free as I am now since my transformation.”

　　“Ha-ha, don’t worry, I can guarantee you’ll be freer in the future!” Styx Laozu’s eyes flickered as he said, “I’ve contacted Mosquito Taoist, it’ll be our time soon! Feel free to eat any human! Just eat as you please, no restrictions!”

　　Qiongqi’s eyes were cruel. It asked, “Are you sure this is going to be okay?”

　　The world did not like Natural Beasts. It knew about that fact so it had been hiding. It ate humans secretly without causing a scene. It had been living like a rat.

　　Up until recently, when Styx Laozu found it and told it that the times had changed. He would protect the Natural Beats and so, Qiongqi came out.

　　“As long as you help me, once this is over, we won’t be afraid of Saints!” Styx Laozu laughed arrogantly. “I’ll become as powerful as a Saint by then! I’ll protect you! Since our birth, it was determined by fate that we wouldn’t become Saints. However, we don’t even have to become one now! We can gain power another way!”

　　His eyes were glinting with excitement. He cultivated the Killing Path. It allowed him to kill and engulf souls to improve his power. Everything was as planned.

　　Qiongqi did not speak. It opened its mouth and spat something out.

　　Instantly, hundreds of souls were spat out from its mouth.

　　These were the souls of the people he swallowed. Since they were swallowed by the Natural Beast, these souls were filled with hatred and violence.

　　Styx Laozu’s eyes glinted. He raised his hands and sucked these souls into the Bloody Sea. Meanwhile, in the bloody battle going on inside, many souls did not manage to go to the Underworld. They were all swallowed.

　　Styx Laozu mumbled, “Why isn’t Mosquito Taoist here yet? If she joins us, we’ll be more efficient”

　　Meanwhile, his eyes narrowed as he locked his gaze in a direction. A cruel smile appeared on his lips. “The annoying flies are here. Let’s make sure they can’t go home!”
