Chapter 364 – Project Innate Atavism
Both Wang Wei and Huo Fenghuang acted at the same time and punched in a direction close to the dragon bones. Although there was nothing in their sights, they still hit something.
Crack!
The sound of bones cracking could be heard followed by an intense scream. A small pool of blood splattered on the ground, and the thing that they hit was momentarily revealed:
'Chameleon Race?'
The strange demon race that looked like a humanoid chameleon only appeared for a brief moment before disappearing once again. More ever, soon afterward, a space fluctuation enveloped him and he broke free from the Void Blocking Talisman and disappeared.
'Since when did the demon race have such good thing that could ignore a Quasi-Emperor Void Blocking Talisman?' thought Wang Wei. Even if the latter used the same ranked Void Escaping Talisman, it would still take them some time before escaping.
Yet, this person instantly vanished.
Both Wang Wei and Huo Fenghuang checked before discovering that this person managed to steal at least one drop of blood from the spine of the dragon.
After seeing this, Wang Wei internally sighed. If it was his main body, there is no way that this Demon race would so easily pass undetected through his senses, no matter how good the camouflage of the Chameleon race is.
So, he realized that the situation is constantly changing and it is best to deal with the bones as soon as possible.
He immediately took out five drops of blood from the spin and handed it to Huo Fenghuang. Then, he began to put away the entire bone. The process lasted at least two minutes since the bone seemed to instinctively resist.
During the process, he did not forget to stare at Huo Fenghuang in case she decided to go back on her words. However, she seemed to a woman of her words.
Nevertheless, a slight accident did occur. As soon as the bone was placed away, the entire tomb began to shake. Space cracks appeared everywhere in less than a second.
This phenomenon was alerting as Wang Wei noticed that even with his clash against Huo Fenghuang–which reached the level of True Monarch–the space in this tomb was completely fine.
"It seems that the space of this tomb is about to collapse," muttered Wang Wei.
With the instability of the tomb's space, his talisman was proven worthless. So, not long after the tremors began, Huo Fenghuang's Dao Protectors appeared in the room.
"Young Lady, is everything fine?" asked one of them.
"I"m alright."
Then, they looked at Wang Wei with suspicion.
"Let's go," said Huo Fenghuang. Then, these people broke the space and teleported away. In the space channel, one of them asked:
"Young Lady, what happened? Do you succeed in acquiring the dragon blood?"
"I had a fight with the Wang Clan Young Master. And Yes, I did succeed."
"I bet the young lady defeated him."
"You are wrong about that; it was a tie."
"I bet that the young lady did not use all her strength."
"You are right, but so did he. Plus, my Heavenly Eye told me that this was just a clone of him with probably 50 to 70% of the real body's strength."
The True Monarchs became quiet after hearing this. Before leaving the clan, the Patriarch warned them to pay attention to Wang Wei and Di Tian, but they did not expect that this person was so powerful.
"There is no need to worry," said Huo Fenghuang calmly. "The Heaven Will Battle is years ahead, and having an advantage now does not mean it will be the same later on."
Meanwhile, as Wang Wei watched her leave, he summarized the things he already knew about Huo Fenghuang in this short confrontation.
The first is the fact that her body is full of Innate Qi. As a person who absorbed Innate Materials inside his body, he was quite sensitive to Innate Qi, and he could feel a vast quantity of them inside her body that has not been completely refined.
Once she has done so, her strength would drastically increase.
The second thing is that she is had a very noble bloodline inside her body–most likely related to the Innate Demon, the Phoenix. And unlike Fang Lijuan of the Divine Dao League, her bloodline is not a shackle to her.
Instead, it seemed to boost her strength, speed, talent, and give her special abilities beyond the norm. Her bloodline is basically the same as Fang Lijuan's after she used the Invisibility Talisman to break from her restrictions.
And in terms of power, purity, and level, Fang Lijuan's current bloodline is nothing compared to Huo Fenghuang. However, the Talisman might still give her the ability to fight.
"With the dragon blood, this girl might want to turn her bloodline into a Dragon and Phoenix Bloodline. I wonder how powerful she will be then," muttered Wang Wei.
However, he soon gave up thinking about such a thing. Anyway, he was just a clone. So, let the main body deal with such a problem.
He then flew from the tomb to the hallways, heading back to the entrance. Midway through his fly, he encountered the people from the Dao Opening Sect.
"Young master, what happened? Our formation suddenly became unstable and many people have begun to rush in."
"After I got the things inside, the entire space began to collapse. So, let's leave immediately."
After opening a space channel, the group quickly arrived outside, floating on top of Array Mountain. Ever since the main tomb began to collapse, the formation on the mountain became dormant, so people do not have to slowly walk up the mountain, they can just fly there.
So, many people rushed up there to enter the core in the hopes of finding something valuable.
Ignoring these people, Wang Wei said: "Let's begin."
The people behind him immediately began to lay Array Flags in specific parts surrounding the mountain. And once everyone was done, Wang Wei activated the formation he was laying down.
A massive circle surrounded the Array Mountain, then, it began to separate from the ground. Everything in a few thousand kilometers shook, and the people still flying on top of the mountain were randomly sent out.
A few seconds later, the mountain floated in the sky, then, one of the True Monarchs waved his sleeve and the large mountain disappeared.
Ever since Wang Wei discovered that this mountain contained natural arrays, he was planned to take it back to the Sect as a Secret Realm to train more Formation Masters.
However, he still needed to find a way to take the mountain while preserving the formations on it. So, he has been planning and setting a formation for the past 200 years.
Once everything was done, Wang Wei left.
As for the people who entered the crumbling tombs, they soon had to run out of there. And once they saw that even the mountain was taken away, these Emperor Lineages could only sighed out loud.
The people of the Dao Opening Sect not only got whatever fortunate encounter was inside but even the Array Mountain was taken away. Truth be told, not many people cared about the mountain–until it was taken away.
They finally realized that this mountain was as valuable as any fortunate encounter; it can be used to strengthen the foundation of any sect–even an Emperor Lineage.
…
Somewhere in the Northern Continent, the space tore apart and a humanoid chameleon stepped out of it. He coughed a large of mouthful blood while groaning in pain.
However, the chameleon just swallowed a handful of pills before rushing to his destination. He broke the space on his own and headed to a specific destination.
Soon, he found himself deep in a mountain range. If anyone could observe the entire range, they would find out that it was used to lay a very powerful formation.
After observing the surroundings, the chameleon headed to one specific mountain and rushed straight at it. However, he did not crash on the mountain but passed through it.
Soon, he was in a completely different place or world. There was one city full of demons of all ethnicity, and in the middle of that city was a large mansion.
The chameleon headed straight for that mansion without stopping. None of the guards noticed him. Inside of the rooms was a handsome young man with two dragon horns waiting for him.
"Did you succeed?" asked the young man with a deep and grave voice.
"Young Master, I only managed to get two drops of blood," replied the Chamelion with his head down. Then, he handed a jade vial to the young man who immediately opened the lid and smell the blood inside.
"This is more than enough."
As the young man smelled the blood inside, scales appeared on his body, and his pupils turned vertical like a snake: no, like a dragon.
A powerful aura emanated from his body which forced the Chameleon to kneel on the ground.. This act was not by choice but an instinct from deep inside his bloodline.
