153: C153 Taboo Task Target

C153 Taboo Task Target

Compared to the other areas of the continent, the Devil Beast mountain range within the borders of the Yuanyang Empire was not on a very large scale.

However, because the terrain here was extremely special, there were many dark deep valleys and swamps. There were many different kinds of high level Devil Beast in the hidden mountain range, and it still caused quite a headache for the Yuanyang Empire army.

However, for Xu Yang's team, this kind of quest did not pose any challenge at all.

Spirit Ship searched the entire way, and quickly reached their designated target. There were over thirty elite guards hibernating, and the outer perimeter was surrounded by over a hundred high ranking demon wolves.

In a place like the Devil Beast Mountain Range, there was no fear of lions or tigers or crocodiles. What they feared the most were wolves that lived together as a group.

This kind of high level demon wolf especially, although it couldn't speak human language, its intelligence level wasn't the least bit inferior to Homo Clan. Some demon wolves even used hunting methods that were more advanced than the battle methods of the Homo Clan army.

At this moment, this group of several dozen soldiers were all injured to varying degrees. If they didn't get reinforcements soon, they would be on the verge of dying.

"I see it, it's over there!"

Without saying a word, Xu Yang was the first to rush down, turning into a shadow and arriving in front of the soldiers. Soon after, Bai Lianxue and the other two landed on the ground one after another and started to heal the soldiers.

The wounds of the soldiers quickly healed. On average, these soldiers were at the level of their Golden Core Stage, and the two leading them were at the middle level of the Nascent Soul Stage. They did not have the qualifications to study in the academy, and their ranks were accumulated by completing missions in the army.

"You are …"

"General Hu sent them to save you. Rest in peace. They will no longer be in danger."

Bai Lianxue's golden halo enveloped these warriors, greatly alleviating their pain.

"Little brother, you're in danger!"

No.0's soldier saw Xu Yang walk out of the rock pile to cover himself and wanted to shout for him to come back.

"Don't worry, big brother. Even if there were a hundred times more demon wolves like these, they would still not be able to defeat that young man."

The soldiers were all startled, and just as they heard a loud bang from behind them, the howls of all the demon wolves instantly vanished, never to be heard again.

"Wh, what!?" He killed all of these high level demon wolves in a single move? "This …"

The soldiers looked at Xu Yang's team of four with hundreds of shocked looks. They were really convinced. Xu Yang and the other three were a calm group of soldiers. Opponents at this level couldn't arouse their interest at all.

"Alright, the danger has been averted. I'll bring you all up onto the Spirit Ship and back to your homes."

As Xu Yang said this, the leader of the Nascent Infant Stage had a bitter look on his face, as if he didn't want to go back at all.

"What's wrong?"

"Great god, I won't hide it from you, our mission this time is an [A] class mission, our target is not these demon wolves, but a berserk lion with high bloodshot eyes. Because the appearance of these demon wolves is a hindrance to our battle plan, now that we have recovered, we don't want to give up on this mission, because our team has already failed three times in a row, if we don't succeed this time, we will be demoted …"

Xu Yang thought for a moment and said, "How about this, we'll go together. Besides that Bloody-eyed Lion, it's not too late to go back. It's still too early anyway."

"Awesome!"

The soldiers were extremely excited, immediately taking out the map of the lion's habitat.

As everyone advanced deeper into the mountain range, they saw many vicious fissures along the way. It was as if the mountain range had been cut down by a terrifying force, which didn't seem to be an innate formation.

"This is the strangest Devil Beast habitat I've ever seen …"

Bai Lianxue voiced out Xu Yang's thoughts, and the guard captain also agreed.

"Rumor has it that ten thousand years ago, this mountain range was originally a sea. However, because of the calamity that engulfed the entire Dao Province, everything within the boundaries of the Yuanyang Empire changed drastically. Even the ancestors of the Yuanyang Empire were able to rise to prominence in that era and establish this empire."

"Ten thousand years ago?"2

Xu Yang and the others were stunned. They looked at each other and clearly thought of the same point.

Ten thousand years ago, wasn't it the key moment when the Hidden Dragon Secret of the 3000 Dao Prefectures was born?

Thinking about how the Holy Soul Academy was a secret, Xu Yang couldn't help but feel that the entire birth of the Yuanyang Empire was related to this secret.

Unknowingly, the group had already arrived at the coordinates area. However, they did not discover any trace of the Blood-eyed Ferocious Lion. However, the air was filled with a thick stench of blood …

Roar!

Suddenly, a muffled sound of a beast's roar could be heard, followed by the sound of a foot stomping on the ground. When the gigantic figure appeared in front of them, all the soldiers were stupefied.

"This is …" The taboo S-rank quest target from before, the Golden Winged Soaring Dragon! The most top-notch Devil Beast in the entire mountain range! "No, are we really going to die here …"

The soldiers were about to go crazy. Never in their wildest dreams did they expect that today they would run into such an unlucky situation. Originally, they were trapped in a dead end and were just waiting for reinforcements, not thinking about retreating yet they still greedily wanted to complete the mission.

"Hahaha, lowly Homo Clan ants, you guys keep disturbing me, and you actually continue to send people over, you are truly afraid that I will get hungry!"

The giant python licked its lips, the blood-red scar seemed to prove something.

"You, you swallowed that Ferocious Lion!"

"Otherwise? From today onwards, all the territories within the mountain range will belong to me, whether it is Homo Clan or Devil Beast, if you dare to interfere here, I will kill you all without mercy! "

Roar!

The Savage Python let out a roar that was even louder than a lion's roar, it was obvious that it already had the intention to kill.

"Wait."

Xu Yang suddenly went forward and looked at the python with a calm expression.

"Before I eat us, I have a question. Please answer it."

"Speak. This sovereign is in a good mood today, I'll let you all know when you die."

Xu Yang's observation skills were tyrannical. He had already seen that there was something wrong with the Raging Python. The Original Aura in its body was completely different from the demon spirits in this mountain range. It was as if it was a brand-new foreigner.

"According to my observation, the origin of your body didn't come from this mountain range. This proves that not long ago, you didn't belong here. Why did you suddenly choose to live here?"

The giant python's eyes couldn't help but light up: "Good kid, a mere Qi Refinement Stage ant was able to see through my secrets! "Since you asked, I shall satisfy your curiosity. I was born a python, but my bloodline is not pure and I need to evolve into the next level of a dragon python. And this mountain range contains dragon aura, which is the true resource that I need."

"What did you say!"
