Chapter 2265 The Beast Emperor of Radiance And Chimera Seeds
The title was quite impressive and Lin Mu could see the reverence the people had for the Beast Emperor to name him that.
''The only other beasts I''ve seen being referred to with such reverence are the Guardian Beasts.'' Lin Mu thought to himself.
It showed that the status of the Beast Emperor of Radiance was no less than the Four Guardian beasts, and perhaps might have been greater than that too.
Just how great though, it was a matter that was not essible to Lin Mu.
Neither was it something he should think about as it was beyond the scope of his understanding.
"You''ve never seen the Beast Emperor of Radiance yourself?" Lin Mu asked feeling curious.
"No, I''ve never had the chance." Xukong replied. "Though I dide close to it once… but another matter drew me away from encountering him." He added recalling an old memory.
"Then… what would you ce the Beast Emperor Of Radiance''s cultivation base at?" Lin Mu asked curiously.
"That is hard to say." Xukong stated. "It was certainly greater than most experts in the Cultivation world… And he was certainly at the peak of the Celestial Realm too." He added. Lin Mu could read between the lines and knew that he could not know anything more than that. He was simply too weak to know about the matters of the realms above.
But as Lin Mu thought about this, there was still a matter that had been left unsolved.
''Just who or what was it that broke the image of the Chimeric God Fiend?'' Lin Mu wondered. "Is there a chance you did it yourself?" Xukong asked just in case.
"Myself?" Lin Mu shook his head. "I heard a voice that stopped it." He added.
"Do you remember what it was like?" Xukong asked. "No… my focus was on the image so I didn''t clearly listen to it. But I do know it said ''Begone''." Lin Mu replied. "Could it have been another external influence?" he asked.
"That''s not possible." Xukong denied. "If there was anyone else that could do something like that, it would also mean they would be able toe into the Sleepscape. Something like that would be detected by me too." He exined.
"Then who was it?" Lin Mu was now very confused about it.
"Hmm… whatever it might be, it helped you so it should be fine." Xukong had concerns about it too, but for now there were other things they needed to deal with. "But what matters right now is the Chimeric Qi." He stated.
"Ah yes!" Lin Mu understood. "Now that the Chimeric Qi has appeared from that rock, what do we do or rather what will happen?" he asked.
"That is a bit hard to say since there are a few possibilities." Xukong replied. "You said you felt Dao Traces there too right?" he asked.
"Yes! There were certainly Dao Traces within that rock. But I can''t tell what kind they were." Lin Mu answered. "Wait, could it really have been a Dao Essence Crystal?"
"That is indeed one of the possibilities." Xukong answered. "But if it was a Dao Essence Crystal and it was apanied by the Chimeric Qi… that will make things a lot more difficult." He said, with a dark look in his eyes. N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.
Lin Mu could sense the tenseness and waited for Xukong to speak further.
"I think… that rock might just have been a ''Chimera Seed''." Xukong stated.
"A seed? As in a nt?" Lin Mu raised his brows.
"Quite literally yes." Xukong nodded. "But it is a special kind of nt that produces more Chimeras." He revealed.
"Huh? But the Chimeric Qi was killing all the Chimeric Beasts it came in contact with." Lin Mu replied. "It was also mixing freely with the Death Qi." He added.
"Exactly. The Chimeric Qi is a derivative Qi that isposed of many kinds of other Qis, thus it can consume them. The Chimeric Beasts were simply being ''eaten'' by the Chimeric Qi as a fuel for the ''Chimera Seed''." Xukong answered.
"Then even the Death Qi… is going to be fuel for the nt?" Lin Mu raised his brows.
"Indeed… and the Chimeras that will be produced from that will be on a different level than anything you all have seen so far." Xukong replied. "These Chimera Seeds have been used in the past for war… they''re basically a source of endless cannon fodder that were used by the Chimeric Fiend God." He exined.
"Then all the Chimeric Beasts we''ve seen so far… they were made by Chimera Seeds too?" Lin Mu asked.
"It is likely." Xukong nodded. "The murals in the offering hall said that there were underground nests of the Chimeric Beasts and they hade out from there even after being wiped out. Then there were also many that were produced by the meteors thatnded.
It is likely that the ones born from the meteors were ''malnourished'' Chimeric beasts that were produced by a Chimera nt that didn''t have much to ''eat''." He exined.
Hearing all that, Lin Mu felt rmed.
"If that is true then… The Death Qi boundaries that had been restraining the Chimeric Beasts all this time… they will—" Lin Mu grasped the graveness of the situation.
"They will no longer work." Xukong replied. "The new Chimera nt that will be produced… it might make new Chimeric Beasts that are resistant to the Death Qi." He confirmed.
"We need to stop it." Lin Mu stated. "We need to stop it before the nt grows." "I''m afraid it is already toote." Xukong shook his head. "The Death Qi won''t let you all wander out anyways. Even with your best defenses, it will be an impossible task." He stated.
"Then what do we do?" Lin Mu asked.
"You can only deal with it when the timees." Xukong answered. "Though it isn''t all bad. The Chimera nt will still take some time to grow before it can produce Chimeric Beasts. For now it will simply gather as much energy as it can." He exined.
