He had been tricked!

Wang Ye’s eyelids twitched as he looked at the scene in front of him.

How was this a relic of life?!

It had all been an illusion!

This is too f*cking eerie!

“Why? It can’t be that you want to go back?” Elder demon tree cackled, “But even if you want to go back now, you can’t.”

“Not really,” Wang Ye said, “It’s just that this place feels very familiar as if I’ve returned home.”

“…” Elder demon tree.

“Very well, come with me,” Elder demon tree said calmly, “Also, the resources that you collected previously have changed. Take them out and throw them away.”

“?” Wang Ye.

He was stunned and immediately looked into his spatial sphere.

Immediately, the corner of his mouth twitched.

The materials that he had just collected, which were worth hundreds of millions, had turned into stones and rotten flowers.

This was too much!

What the hell was this place?

Wang Ye was expressionless.

“If you want to cry, then cry,” Elder demon tree sneered, “Did you really think that those treasures would be given to you for free? In the words of you humans, how can there be a free dinner in this world? Moreover, this is the Infernal Relic! That being said, since you are the first human to enter the Internal Relic in all these years, we have thus prepared a reward specifically for you.”

“Well, cut the crap. Hurry up and take it out,” Wang Ye said.

Elder demon tree felt that there was something wrong with this human.

He didn’t seem to be very afraid.

The elder demon tree’s branch shook slightly, and the pearl landed in front of Wang Ye.

“This is the blood wood divine seed,” Elder demon tree’s hollow trunk suddenly revealed a devil-like smile, “This is our great gift to you humans.”

Wang Ye stared at the pearl and began to ponder.

This place was somewhat eerie.

It was like an illusory world. Since he didn’t notice anything after entering, it must be of an extremely high level.

Moreover, based on the information from the simulation, Qixing Investigation Corps had come here and had a huge battle, which meant that this place wasn’t simple.

In other words, it wasn’t something that he could contend against alone.

That giant mantis was already very strong.

This elder demon tree before him was the second big brother of the giant mantis, which meant its strength hould be even more ridiculous.

Wang Ye couldn’t sense how strong the other party was.

On top of that, he had a very deep question in his heart.

Elder demon tree had called this place “a paradise for fierce beasts”, and they seemed to be fierce beasts as well.

However, fierce beasts usually did not have much intelligence, let alone speak human language.

What on Earth was this place?

“What’s the use of this thing?” Wang Ye asked.

“Humph,” Elder demon tree said indifferently, “This thing is a talent secret treasure. It can strengthen the talents of you humans and even help you awaken some powerful talents. How about it?”

Wang Ye was slightly surprised.

That was quite a precious treasure!

“For humans who value talent, it’s a peerless treasure,” Elder demon tree suddenly gave a strange laugh, “Since you’ve chosen it, you have to take it now. Otherwise, you won’t be able to enter the next stage and can only stay here.”

Wang Ye looked at the elder demon tree that was laughing strangely.

This thing must have some side effects.

“Can you let me rest for a while?” Wang Ye asked.

“It’s up to you. But since you’ve come to the Infernal Relic, you won’t be able to leave for the time being,” Elder demon tree said indifferently, “Make a decision quickly. There’s still the next stage waiting for you. You can only leave if you get to the center of this place. Otherwise, you’ll be trapped here forever.”

“?” Wang Ye was speechless. It was indeed not a good place, was it?

Walking to the side, Wang Ye and the white python looked at each other.

“Huji!” The white python nudged Wang Ye.

Wang Ye nodded.

The man and the pet looked at each other, already understanding what the other party was thinking.

In the distance, the elder demon tree was silent.

“Come on then, simulate!” Wang Ye muttered in his heart.

This place was indeed strange, but at least that elder demon tree still followed the rules.

Otherwise, it wouldn’t have let that giant mantis stop earlier.

[The simulation begins, loading… ]

[Your Beastmaster consumed the blood wood divine seed, and his talent improved. This was supposed to be a good thing, but you don’t feel good about it. Your Beastmaster started exuding an uncomfortable aura, but you didn’t think much of it.]

[As you continued forward, you encountered a strange fierce beast with a human head and snake body. It had a peerless appearance, causing your Beastmaster to be mesmerized by it. You immediately slapped your Beastmaster awake with your tail in anger. After that, the strange fierce beast claimed to be a hornless dragon, saying that it had been trapped here for over a hundred years, hoping that a human would be able to bring it away.]

[You felt that there was something wrong with the other party, but your Beastmaster couldn’t control himself and agreed to the hornless dragon’s request. As a result, he signed a pet contract with this fierce beast. At that moment, you suddenly sensed that your pet contract with him was gradually fading away.]

[Immediately after, your Beastmaster brought the hornless dragon out of the Infernal Relic. You felt extremely angry and sad. You stayed in the Infernal Relic, waiting for your Beastmaster to come back and look for you every day.]

[However, as the days passed, your Beastmaster didn’t return. Instead, a powerful investigator came and clean up this place.]

[You were killed as a fierce beast.]

[The simulation time was too short. No reward.]

“…” Wang Ye.

“Huji?” The confusion in the white python’s eyes gradually cleared, and it stared at Wang Ye.

“Huji, huji!” The white python began to hit Wang Ye angrily with its tail.

Wang Ye hurriedly used his hand to block, “No, there must be a reason for this! It’s definitely not because of me!”

The white python stopped.

It raised its head, looked at Wang Ye, and snorted.

Wang Ye was a little speechless.

No matter how he looked at it, the whole matter seemed strange.

Unfortunately, the simulation had been from the white python’s perspective, so after he left, he couldn’t know what had happened.

What a pity…

“It shouldn’t be. Why would I bring the hornless dragon and leave, giving up on you?” Wang Ye muttered to himself, “Am I the kind of person who would be tempted by beauty? The beauty of a fierce beast at that? Are you kidding me?”

The white python nodded, indicating, “Whatever, you are!”

“…” Wang Ye.

“No, it’s definitely not like that!” Wang Ye denied, “I still have the characteristic Calm and Collected. There must be something wrong with that blood wood divine seed. Or, there must be something wrong with that hornless dragon!”

The white python turned its head away.

“Human, hurry up and take the blood wood divine seed, then continue moving forward!” At this moment, the elder demon tree said.

“Since it’s such a treasure, I’d like to keep it for later,” Wang Ye said.

“Oh? Don’t you want to improve your talent?” Elder devil tree paused slightly.

“Of course I do, but my talent is just trash,” Wang Ye shrugged. “It’s useless even if I improve it. I want to sell it for money.”

“Don’t worry about that. As long as you consume the blood wood divine seed, your talent will become more powerful than before,” Elder demon tree said indifferently, “According to the classification of your human talent sequences, even the most trashy earthly talent will become an ace talent comparable to the four Ace Sequences. Furthermore, this is the only seed left. In addition, you won’t be able to reach the end by relying on your pet alone. If you don’t consume this blood divine seed, you’ll die sooner or later.”

Something was wrong, something was definitely wrong with this thing.

What kind of peerless treasure could be so awesome that it could improve an earthly talent till it was on part with an ace talent?

Wang Ye didn’t believe it. The elder demon tree must be lying to him.

“Other than raising my talent, can’t it improve my pet instead?” Wang Ye suddenly asked.

The elder demon tree was silent for a while, then said hoarsely, “Why? Do you want to give such a treasure to your pet?”

“What else?” Wang Ye was puzzled.

“Interesting, interesting. You humans value your talent so much, and this thing is so useful to you, yet you still want to give it to your pet? Are you still human?”

“Hey, why are you insulting me?” Wang Ye frowned.

“It’s up to you. I don’t know what this thing can do to your pet, since no one has tried it before,” Elder demon tree let out a strange laugh, “Putting that aside, it’s time for you to set off.”

With that, the elder demon tree waved its branch, and the space around it changed. Then, it disappeared, as well as the road under his feet.

Wang Ye glanced at the white python and chose not to consume the blood wood divine seed for the time being.

He just put it away.

Then, Wang Ye took some supplements as he moved forward.

The white python was quite reluctant, but it seemed that it had no other choice at this time.

It tightly wrapped itself around Wang Ye’s arm and watched him continue to move forward.

Not long after, Wang Ye arrived at a desolate land. The desolate land was filled with broken and dilapidated walls that were covered with all kinds of pitch-black vines.

A pitch-black, sharp-toothed crow hovered above Wang Ye, letting out vicious screeches.

When Wang Ye walked into the desolate land, it immediately flew away and disappeared.

“Hiss, hiss, hiss…” At this moment, a strange sound came from a broken wall in front of them.

Immediately after, a human-headed, snake-bodied fierce beast twisted its green snake body and stuck out its head.

It had a face that could be said to be peerless. Every inch of its facial features seemed to have gone through the most precise calculation. When they happened to meet, it was so beautiful that it did not seem like a face that could be born on a human.

It was like a God’s face that had been secretly descended from the heavens. The charm it exuded could make any living creature fall for it.

“…” Wang Ye.
