Chapter 70: Subduing the Beast King A Mysterious Treasure Land
Ye Wushang stepped into the air, fists clenched, unleashing a terrifying aura as he struck the Roaring Lion Beast King.
His combat power was monstrous.
Each punch rivaled Heaven-grade martial techniques, and with a bit more force, could match Royal-grade techniques.
The beast king was forced back repeatedly, blood spilling from its mouth.
The surrounding lion beasts, who had initially intended to tear Ye Wushang apart, now retreated in fear.
Their eyes were filled with awe that this human was a walking calamity.
Under the relentless barrage, the beast king began to falter.
Yet it refused to submit.
Ye Wushang paused, realizing brute force alone wouldn’t win its loyalty.
He looked down at the battered beast king and spoke calmly.
“Submit to me, and I’ll lead your tribe out of this secret realm.
You’ll grow stronger, perhaps even reclaim your ancient glory as a primordial beast clan.”
The beast king raised its head, eyes flickering with doubt.
Ye Wushang disliked wasting words, but he understood.
Beasts were stubborn.
If they didn’t willingly submit, they’d rather die than be enslaved.
He locked eyes with the beast king.
Suddenly, in the beast king’s soul world, a vision appeared.
Ye Wushang’s towering figure descended.
He glanced at the beast king, then unleashed a slash.
A blade light tore through the heavens, its terrifying aura unforgettable.
The beast king was stunned.
Ye Wushang was a blade cultivator and terrifyingly powerful.
If that slash had been aimed at its tribe, they would’ve been annihilated instantly.
Perhaps following him wasn’t such a bad idea.
Still, as the tribe’s leader, it had to be cautious.
Ye Wushang sensed its hesitation and laid out his terms.
“Follow me. Guard the Ye clan’s rear mountain.
Your territory will be many times larger than this canyon.
Each year, offer 100 drops of adult lion beast blood.
In return, the Ye clan will provide equal-value herbs and resources, plus generous spirit stones.
Within ten years, I’ll help you break through to the Cave Heaven Realm.”
“If you refuse, I’ll kill you and take the blood myself.”
The beast king’s pupils shrank.
Ye Wushang wasn’t offering choices just consequences.
But the offer was tempting.
This secret realm suppressed breakthroughs to the Cave Heaven Realm.
Leaving it could unlock their potential.
With a roar, the beast king stepped forward, lowered its head, and bowed before Ye Wushang.
This was the beast tribe’s ritual of submission.
“Open your soul,” Ye Wushang said.
He needed to control the beast king.
Not out of arrogance, but practicality.
He didn’t believe in blind loyalty.
Once the beast king submitted, the rest of the tribe followed.
Ye Wushang had successfully tamed the Roaring Lion Beast Clan.
Just then, three powerful auras approached.
Ye Wushang turned to see three formidable men flying toward him.
Their cultivation was impressive.
The leader was Level Four Dharma Aspect Realm, the others were Level Three.
Clearly, they weren’t from the Canglan Domain.
They hailed from other regions of Tianluo Daozhou.
Canglan was mid-tier neither weak nor elite.
It was normal for other domains to produce stronger prodigies.
“Roaring Lion Beasts! Such a rare species!”
“We’ve struck gold. Their blood, bones, organs all are priceless.
Perfect for alchemy and medicine.
There are nearly 200 of them here. If we take them all, we’ll be rich!”
The leader, Du Yunfeng, smiled. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹✶𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗲✶𝗻𝗲𝘁
“With these beasts, I’ll surpass the others and become Henglin Domain’s top prodigy!”
He ignored Ye Wushang and the beast king.
To him, Ye Wushang was just a Level One Dharma Aspect ant.
Even the beast king didn’t concern him.
He was used to defeating stronger foes.
Henglin Domain ranked among the top five in Tianluo Daozhou.
They looked down on most other regions.
“Kid, you’ve got some skill—taming the beast king.
But you’re unlucky to meet us.
Hand over the control method and leave. I’ll spare you.”
Du Yunfeng thought he was being generous.
The beast king growled, ready to attack.
Ye Wushang placed a hand on its head, signaling it to stay.
He stepped forward, eyes cold.
The three laughed, mocking his audacity.
“Another arrogant fool.”
“He thinks he’s invincible in his little domain.
He’s about to learn a painful lesson.”
Ye Wushang didn’t respond.
He raised his hand and slashed.
A blade light erupted, freezing the air.
It surged toward the trio with unstoppable force.
Ye Wushang hadn’t even drawn his blade.
He used his hand as a weapon.
One of the Level Three prodigies lashed out with a whip, sneering:
“Ant! You dare look down on us? I’ll—what?!”
Before he could finish, Ye Wushang’s blade light shattered his whip like tofu.
The slash continued, radiating terrifying killing intent.
The trio’s expressions changed.
Ye Wushang wasn’t ordinary.
A mountain range exploded, split by the blade light for thousands of miles.
Dust and smoke filled the air.
A weak cough echoed—barely audible.
When the dust settled, the scene was clear.
The two Level Three prodigies were cut in half.
Only Du Yunfeng survived—barely.
His chest was bloodied, face pale, aura nearly gone.
He stared at Ye Wushang in horror.
“Who… who are you? How are you this strong?”
To him, Ye Wushang felt like a Cave Heaven Realm cultivator.
Ye Wushang’s blade intent surged.
Du Yunfeng knew—he was about to die.
“You dare kill me? I’m the Holy Son of the Du Clan, an ancient family!
If you kill me, they’ll find you. Your clan—your family—will suffer!”
Before he could finish, a cold light flashed.
His head flew into the air, eyes wide in disbelief.
The beast king was stunned.
Those three prodigies had radiated immense power.
Even if they were repelled, his tribe would’ve suffered greatly.
Yet Ye Wushang had slain them in one move.
His respect for Ye Wushang reached a new peak.
Suddenly, the beast king roared.
Ye Wushang turned—receiving a message.
“You know of a treasure-filled sanctuary?
But it’s occupied by other beasts—even you don’t dare approach?”
Ye Wushang’s eyes lit up.
If the beast king coveted it, the treasures must be extraordinary.
Without hesitation, he ordered the beast king to lead the way.
