Invincible Kungfu Healer

Chu Yuan had not expected that he would encounter Mo Wen on the Beast King Island, or that this youth would be one of the last three surviving human ancient martial art practitioners. He must be quite capable, to be able to survive such a terrifying Beast Wave for such a long time.

“He he, Mo Wen. Enemies are bound to meet.” Chu Yuan grinned hideously. He did not mind tormenting Mo Wen, despite the circumstances.

“Indeed.” Mo Wen looked at Chu Yuan. The corners of his mouth lifted slightly. He also smiled with glee.

“Huh? That is…” Suddenly, Chu Yuan realized that something was off. He frantically looked towards the sky and saw the huge monstrous beast circling above. A pair of crimson eyes were looking playfully at him and Mo Wen. Its huge claws were crossed in a human fashion. It seemed to be enjoying the show.

Chu Yuan’s expression suddenly changed drastically. He instantly felt a frightening aura from the body of the huge monstrous beast. The aura made him fear for his life. He knew he would be powerless to resist this threat to his life.

“A pinnacle realm Wyvern!” Chu Yuan cried out, looking in disbelief at the sky. His figure was frozen stiff.

He would never have expected that this place would contain a Pinnacle Beast King. Originally, he had charged towards this direction because he noticed that there were few Beast Kings here. Almost no Beast Kings had appeared in this area. He believed that it was very safe, so he had flown over.

He had never imagined that such a terrifying Beast King would be circling above this area. He finally understood why this area had so few Beast Kings. With a Pinnacle Beast King here, what other Beast Kings would dare to come?

The Wyvern Beast King’s ability to hide its aura was extraordinary. As Chu Yuan flew towards the area, he did not sense the Wyvern Beast King’s aura at all. Only now that he was up close did he manage to detect it.

“Chu Yuan, I never imagined that before I die, I would see you head towards your own death. I feel at peace, having someone to die with me,” Mo Wen said with a grin. The originally serious atmosphere seemed to be completely resolved by his smile.

“You will definitely die before me,” Chu Yuan said sinisterly.

“You two have a grudge,” the Wyvern Beast King said somewhat playfully as it looked at Mo Wen and Chu Yuan from the sky above.

“By eating us humans, can you evolve into a member of the Devil Clan?” Mo Wen said. He did not answer the Beast King’s question.

“You know quite a lot. That is right. As long as I eat you, I can break through my shackles and become a demon.” The Wyvern Beast King nodded his head. A greedy look flashed in his crimson gaze. Even at its level of cultivation, advancing further and becoming a demon was not an easy feat. By eating just one person, it could complete its metamorphosis and fulfill its long-held dream of becoming a member of the Devil Clan. It could not help but be excited.

Originally, it had set its eyes on Mo Wen, but it never imagined that another human ancient martial art practitioners would deliver himself to its doorstep.

“If I told you that it was a lie that you would become a demon after eating us and that instead, you would immediately disappear from this world, would you still eat us?” Mo Wen asked with a smile.

He had proof of what he said. All the illusionary beasts on Beast King Island were lives created by the Tower Spirit to test the human ancient martial art practitioners. Since it was to test them, it was impossible for Devil Clan members that exceeded the Beast Kings to appear. Otherwise, it would completely destroy the balance.

Hence, once the illusionary beasts became members of the Devil Clan, they were already of no value. Since they had no value, the Tower Spirit would not possibly let them continue to exist.

“Impossible. The ancestral god would not lie to us. Don’t you dare befog my mind or I will eat you first.” The Wyvern Beast King coldly snorted. When it spoke of the ancestral god, its eyes were full of reverence.

Mo Wen smiled. He knew that it was impossible for the illusionary beasts in this space to betray the Tower Spirit and doubt its words.

“Why do you have to eat me first? My companion is an immortal cultivator. His body has been nourished for a long time by spiritual power. He will taste much more delicious than me.” Still smiling, Mo Wen pointed at Chu Yuan. Ever since Chu Yuan had appeared, Mo Wen had calmed down.

“Stop misleading it with your words.”

Chu Yuan’s expression changed. The mist around him surged as he stared sharply at Mo Wen. He had not expected that Mo Wen even knew that he was an immortal cultivator. In this space, the difference between an ancient martial art practitioner and an immortal cultivator was small. Only those who understood immortal cultivators very well could recognize his power at a glance.

In the Immortal Cultivation world, monstrous beasts did indeed like to eat the flesh of immortal cultivators very much. Once a monstrous beast ate the flesh of an immortal cultivator, there was a very high chance of them undergoing metamorphosis. It could cause monstrous beasts that originally could not evolve into members of the Devil Clan to do so completely.

The most common way a monstrous beast could become a member of the Devil Clan was by using their own bloodline and talent. Some monstrous beasts with prestigious bloodlines were destined to become members of the Devil Clan. Another way to transform was based on fateful encounters. Eating the flesh of an immortal cultivator was one of these types of fateful encounters.

However, monstrous beasts only ate the flesh of immortal cultivators with very high cultivation of at least the Primordial Soul Realm. Only then were their chances of evolving very high. If they ate an immortal cultivator of the Golden Elixir Realm or even lower, the chances of them evolving were rather slim.

The problem was that it was almost impossible for monstrous beasts to defeat an immortal cultivator of or above the Primordial Soul Realm. Even a Pinnacle Beast King was not on the same level as a Primordial Soul realm immortal cultivator. Hence, the monstrous beasts that evolved into members of the Devil Clan through this method would have done so through fateful encounters, for example, encountering the corpses of already dead powerful immortal cultivators.

“Oh, so you are an immortal cultivator.”

A strange look flashed in the eyes of the Wyvern Beast King. A pair of crimson eyes locked on to Chu Yuan, shining brightly. Monstrous beasts would always be most interested in the flesh of immortal cultivators. Even if Chu Yuan’s cultivation was too low, and the chances of the Beast King evolving into a member of the Devil Clan after eating him were very slim, it could not stop the passion of the Wyvern Beast King for wanting to eat him. It was because the flesh of an immortal cultivator was indeed the most delicious food in the eyes of the monstrous beasts.

“I have told you his identity as an immortal cultivator. After eating him, you will immediately become a member of the Devil Clan. You shouldn’t need to eat me then, right? I am just an ancient martial art practitioner. My skin is rough and my meat is tough. I will be very unappetizing,” Mo Wen said grinning as he crossed his arms and looked at the Wyvern Beast King in the sky.

“No, I will eat this immortal cultivator and I will eat you as well. Neither of you shall escape.” The Wyvern Beast King shook its head and extended its huge tongue, licking its lips. In its eyes, Mo Wen and Chu Yuan were delicious prey. How could it possibly be willing to let one go?

“Mo Wen, you will die a horrible death.” Chu Yuan’s face was sullen. He had yet to get back at Mo Wen and now he had been sold out by the youth yet again. If the Wyvern Beast King let Mo Wen go in order to eat him, Chu Yuan would cough up blood in fury.

Chu Yuan was full of regret. Why had he headed in this direction? If he hadn’t, only Mo Wen would be eaten. Now, they both faced the same fate.

Mo Wen raised his hands and said, “As you can see, no matter what, it will not let us go. Maybe we will only have a chance of survival by joining forces.”

Chu Yuan’s face was sullen. He pouted and did not say a word. Joining forces with Mo Wen was indeed the best choice. But he deep down he that Mo Wen would not truly join forces with him. Of course, Chu Yuan didn’t intend to co-operate completely with Mo Wen either.

“Neither of you can escape. Even if you join forces, it will be useless.” The Wyvern Beast King laughed. Before absolute power, any resistance was futile. Even if it was facing eight to ten more humans, it would not take them seriously.

The Wyvern Beast King seemed to have lost its patience. A beam of black light shone out from its body.

Chu Yuan became wary. Without any hesitation, he turned and ran. His entire person became a beam of black light, instantly disappearing from his spot.

Mo Wen snickered. A gale swept out from his body, and at the same time, he became a gust of wind, chasing Chu Yuan.

“Mo Wen, why are you following me? Do you want to die?” Chu Yuan’s expression was sullen. He had not expected that Mo Wen would follow him.

If they had split up and escaped, their chances of survival would be slightly higher. Both of them heading in the same direction was suicidal. Mo Wen’s behavior made Chu Yuan unable to discern his intentions. Could it be that Mo Wen wanted to die alongside him?

“You are an immortal cultivator. Your flesh is delicious. If it catches us both together, it will eat you first. I will be safe for a period of time.”

Mo Wen casually followed Chu Yuan. In terms of speed, he surpassed Chu Yuan. Hence, Chu Yuan could not shake him off at all.

“You…” Chu Yuan was furious. This Mo Wen was a complete brat. Could it be that Mo Wen believed that after the Pinnacle Beast King ate Chu Yuan, it would let him go?

“Don’t be mad. After all, the two of us can’t escape. I will be very happy to see you die before me,” Mo Wen said with a smile.

“As I’ve already told you, you won’t escape. Youth, you are interesting. Seeing that you are cooperating, I will consider eating the immortal cultivator first, then eating you.”

The Wyvern Beast King laughed hideously. It had never met such a funny human ancient martial art practitioner. In the eyes of the Wyvern Beast King, Mo Wen was a comedic character.

Roar!

A roar that sounded like that of a beast, but also like that of a dragon reverberated through the land. The Wyvern Beast King’s forehead suddenly lit up with a rune.

Once the rune appeared, the surrounding space twisted. A black screen descended from the sky. It transformed into a cage, enveloping a radius of a thousand meters.

Faced with such a huge cage, Mo Wen and Chu Yuan could not escape at all.

“Devil Bone Runes.”

Mo Wen narrowed his gaze. The Wyvern Beast King possessed Devil Bone Runes. This was a rare occurrence among members of the Devil Clan.

Usually, the Devil Bone Runes were only found on members of the Devil Clan with prestigious bloodlines. Ordinary Devil Clan members did not have such Devil Bone Runes.

The Devil Bone Runes technique was similar to the Ancestral Devil Sacred Spirit. Both were powers inherited from ancestral devils. However, where the Devil Bone Runes were different was that the Ancestral Devil Sacred Spirit mostly relied on whether the ancestral devil was powerful or not. One would have a hard time changing the Ancestral Devil Sacred Spirit’s capabilities.
