The legendary warrior novel Chapter 264

Splatters and smears of blood on the floor were all too intriguing for the people of eight great powers. Their curiosity led them to follow the blood trail to wherever it might take them.

The stench intensified the more they followed the blood trail. The smell of death filled every inch of the surrounding area. Meanwhile, Ricky's senses were tingling as his two powerful zones detected a tremendous power lurking in the depths of where they were.

'Are fierce monsters guarding something valuable over here? Like a Treasure from Heaven and Earth?' Ricky thought to himself.

Despite the fact that there might be a chance that something valuable was hidden in this valley, Ricky did not suppose that the legendary opportunity that every one in the Chaotic Region was seeking, which would crown a warrior as an innate spiritual king, would be found here in this weird valley. And that was why the Eight Demi-immortal Forces only sent their disciples to the valley instead of coming in person to see what was going on.

That only meant one thing, and that was they weren't there for the precious chance to become an innate spiritual king. All the leaders from the Eight Demi-immortal Forces ever wanted was to become innate spirits. They would definitely show up if the opportunity was here in the valley.

Ricky's mind was trailing behind. He snapped out of it and retreated his thoughts. With one cautious foot in front of the other, he focused on the mission they were in and followed the people of eight Forces into the depths of the valley that reeked death.

Finally, after six hours of tedious search, they found the source of the rotten corpse and the end of the blood trail. The monsters they defeated previously were also hiding around.

The trail ended in an immensely deep hole of several hundred meters. It was so deep that no one could see the bottom of it.

Stinky blood and rotten corpses filled here and there in this deep hole. It was safe to assume that all the foul smell were coming from this deep hole.

The defeated monsters that guarded the hole trembled with fear when they met the eyes of the people of eight Forces. But more than this, they were even more scared of what was underneath the layers of corpse and rotten flesh that were inside the hole.

The unsightly scene made Ricky nauseous. He saw that the mound of rotten flesh and corpse were moving. The limbs and the torn down flesh wriggled in unison as if something underneath was causing the movement. It was as if a creature underneath the stack of corpses was devouring at that time.

Ricky's eyes widened. He realized that this was the ferocious power that he had sensed when they got to the valley.

'Hmm. What could it be? What could be lurking underneath this deep hole?' Ricky asked himself.

While all the people of eight great powers had to bear with the repulsive smell of the deep hole, they mustered up all the courage they needed to tolerate the smell and gathered around the hole in a circle.

"The monster must be absorbing the blood and corpses to recover." The man of the Arhat Palace said, "Dear all, let us merge all our powers to defeat this beast with one massive attack. Because if we don't, we'll definitely suffer the rage of the eight demi-immortals back home."

"Of course we must!" The rest of the seven people agreed in unison. They wanted to take down the beast as much as the man of the Arhat Palace. Soon after, they prepared for their attack.

'It seems that there are no Treasures from Heaven and Earth nor good chances here. The eight Forces must have a really profound hatred towards the creature in the deep hole. And the creature avenged itself with a great surge of beasts to the Chaotic Region, '

Ricky thought to himself upon hearing what the people of eight Forces were talking about.

'But why did the people of eight Forces forbid other warriors from coming here? Those warriors could have served as their scapegoat if they approached this area. I don't think the people of eight Forces are kind enough and merciful to care about others' lives.' Ricky was baffled. He wanted to know the truth and more about what the beef was between the creature in the hole and the people of eight Forces.

"You stupid beasts, get out! Or do you want to suffer and go to hell with the damn monster in the deep hole? Get away from us!" The thin elder from the Nether Palace yelled at hesitant beasts who were preying on them. He tried to scare them off to clear their path of any distractions. Sure enough, they only wanted the best of their powers combined to defeat the powerful creature in the hole.

The elder wasn't talking in vain for high grade Bone Reinforced beasts were capable of understanding human language. The beasts surely knew what the elder was telling them to do.

"Damn you! Do you think we really want to stay here? How dare we leave without the monster's approval!" They chattered and cursed to themselves upon hearing the thin man's demands.
