928 Divine Beast Bloodline

Perfected Lord Mystic Stone looked at Lin Feng, then at the anxious Perfected Lord Feng. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, “Perfected Lord Lin, while Perfected Lord Feng was setting off to invite you, we had actually already made some progress on the origins of that Chaotic spirit beast.”

“Oh?”

It had to be known that even if Chaotic spirit beasts were defeated, it should not be that difficult for them to escape. Even if they really could not escape, it should not be difficult for them to pretend to be subdued for the time being.

Those Chaotic spirit beasts were almost all sentient. They had all developed intelligence and were not inferior to cultivators. To a certain extent, those Chaotic spirit beasts could even be considered cultivators.

It was almost impossible for them to submit to other Chaotic spirit beasts. At most, they would save their own lives first before thinking of ways to escape. Even Chaotic Perfected Lords could not control Chaotic spirit beasts.

Otherwise, the Chaotic Perfected Lords would probably have already controlled countless Chaotic spirit beasts.

Since there were no methods to control them, how could that mysterious Chaotic spirit beast control other Chaotic spirit beasts and become the leader of those Chaotic spirit beasts?

This in itself was bizarre.

Perfected Lord Wind did not say the reason. He did not know the reason either. He had only mentioned that the origins of the mysterious Chaotic spirit beast were a mystery. Now, the Mystic Stone City Lord actually already had some understanding of the origin of the mysterious Chaotic spirit beast.

However, looking at how the Mystic Stone City Lord was behaving, the origin of this mysterious Chaotic spirit beast seemed to be very extraordinary.

“Perfected Lord Lin, you should know that the few major cultivation realms of the perfected spirit realm are Perfected Lords, Perfected Deities, and Hallowed Spirits. It’s the same for Chaotic spirit beasts. Above Chaotic spirit beasts are Chaotic divine beasts and Chaotic hallowed beasts, which correspond to Perfected Deities and Hallowed Spirits, respectively.

“We collected various information previously. In addition, when Perfected Lord Wind was away, that mysterious Chaotic spirit beast took the initiative to attack Mystic Stone City again. However, due to the Chaotic array of Mystic Stone City, it had no choice but to retreat. Even so, the array of Mystic Stone City won’t be able to hold out for more than a few attacks.

“And we have finally collected enough information. We can almost be certain now that it should be a descendant of a divine beast.”

The Mystic Stone City Lord’s tone was solemn. When he said “descendant of a divine beast”, the entire living room fell silent. Even Perfected Lord Wind’s mouth fell open in disbelief.

Only Lin Feng only frowned slightly. He did not have many thoughts on a descendant of a divine beast.

“Impossible. There has never been a Chaotic divine beast on the Hallowed Beast Continent. How can there be a descendant of a divine beast?”

Perfected Lord Wind immediately shook his head. He did not believe it at all.

The Mystic Stone City Lord smiled weakly and said, “In the beginning, we couldn’t believe it either, but when we browsed through the ancient texts, we did discover that this mysterious Chaotic spirit beast is 60 to 70% similar to a terrifying divine beast recorded in the texts, the Torch Dragon, which dominated the Chaos. The legendary Chaotic divine beast, the Torch Dragon, had a human face and a serpentine body. Its skin is red as blood, its size is massive, and it is even vaguely related to the Rule of Time. It is one of the most mysterious divine beasts in the Chaos. Many people had only heard of its name, but have never seen it.

“Moreover, you’ve all experienced the strange innate ability of that Chaotic spirit beast yourselves. What do you think of it?”

“Innate ability? Can everyone tell me about the innate ability of that mysterious Chaotic spirit beast?” Lin Feng suddenly spoke.

Since he was to deal with that Chaotic spirit beast, he naturally had to understand its abilities and everything about it. Only by understanding it in detail could he better adopt a strategy.

Perfected Lord Wind hesitated for a moment, and his expression gradually turned solemn. He glanced at Lin Feng, then explained, “The innate ability of that mysterious Chaotic spirit beast is indeed very strange. It’s just a beam of light, a black light. The black light filled the surroundings. Our senses seemed to be stripped away, and even our mental power was useless. Our attacks also became incomparably slow. Not just our attacks, everything around us seemed to have slowed. Only that Chaotic spirit beast could move as usual. Under such circumstances, we were powerless to resist or attack even if we wanted to. This is also why that Chaotic spirit beast could kill a Perfected Lord. We were completely powerless to resist its attacks. There was nothing we could do.”

Lin Feng’s eyes narrowed slightly, but his heart skipped a beat at the same time.

This ability was too bizarre, and he had never heard of it. He had seen many innate abilities, such as the Eye of Annulment of the Three-eyed Giants, and the Chaotic storm of the Griffins.

However, the ability to slow one’s movements and even slow everything around them was too strange. Moreover, it was a strange ability that even a Perfected Lord could not break.

Lin Feng was not an arrogant person. After understanding this situation, he was also considering countermeasures.

“As far as I know, the Torch Dragon has the ability to control time. Although there are many limitations, it is indeed a mysterious ability related to time. Now, not only does this Chaotic spirit beast look very similar to the Torch Dragon, even its innate abilities are similar. Hence, we have determined that this mysterious Chaotic spirit beast is a descendant of a divine beast, and possesses the Torch Dragon bloodline!”

The Mystic Stone City Lord drew a deep breath, and there was not much spirit in his face.

A descendant of a divine beast, and one with the Torch Dragon bloodline at that. Any descendant of a divine beast would be earth-shattering, and almost invincible among Chaotic spirit beasts.

Even a top-notch Chaotic Perfected Lord might not be able to defeat such a Chaotic spirit beast.

“Why can’t it be a Torch Dragon divine beast?” Lin Feng asked curiously.

The Mystic Stone City Lord shook his head and said, “Impossible. The reason is very simple. There is only one Torch Dragon in the Chaos! It’s impossible for there to be a second Torch Dragon. Even if there is, it would only possess the Torch Dragon bloodline. It’s impossible for it to become a divine beast. No matter how abundant the bloodline is, and even if it reverts to its atavistic state, it’ll never be able to become a divine beast. Every divine beast in the Chaos has a name, and every divine beast has an extraordinary background. Every divine beast can create a Chaotic dire beast race. Hence, this mysterious Chaotic spirit beast can only be a spirit beast. It can’t possibly be the Torch Dragon.”

Lin Feng understood now. In reality, this was general knowledge.

There would always be only one true Torch Dragon divine beast in the world. Even if the Torch Dragon had fallen, it was impossible for a second Torch Dragon to appear. This was because even if one had the Torch Dragon bloodline and was a descendant of the Torch Dragon, even if its bloodline was strengthened to the limit, it was impossible for them to become a true divine beast.

Even so, a Chaotic spirit beast with the bloodline of the Torch Dragon was enough to render any cultivator below the level of a Perfected Deity helpless.
