Beast Tamer: I can extract blood

"Captain, that's where our team members disappeared!"

"right here?"

"That's right, Xiaoshan and Da Niu are quite strong, almost at the Silver Knife Warrior level, yet they disappeared without a trace. I feel there's something very wrong with them!"

"Of course there's something wrong. It's just a very dilapidated settlement, yet it managed to make our people disappear without a trace!"

Along the way, no settlement dared to attack us who were flying the Star Moon Tribe's banner. They either surrendered on the spot or wanted some benefits before surrendering.

As someone who was once a member of the community, this is easy to understand. After all, you can tell the difference between being full at one meal and being full at every other meal!

"Be careful, everyone, let's go check it out!"

"Don't forget to report to the general!"

"Don't worry, Captain!"

The three exchanged glances, gripped their weapons tightly, and silently made their way towards the dilapidated settlement before them.

To become scouts for the army, these individuals were among the top soldiers in terms of strength. The captain, in particular, not only reached the limit of the Silver Knife level but also mastered a profound stealth technique from the True Realm, making him an absolute elite in the army.

"what?"

"what is this?"

"Help!"

"Captain, run!"

"Ahhh"

After a series of heart-wrenching screams, the settlement returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.

after one day
On a wide plain, densely packed black military camps are stationed, bringing a sense of solemnity and military might to the originally desolate land!

"Reporting to the general, the reconnaissance team led by Taihe has not been in contact for a day!"

"one day?"

Bengyu looked surprised, then frowned and asked, "Which direction did their team go? What's over there?"

The messenger respectfully handed over the intelligence report, saying, "Please take a look, General."

After quickly reviewing the intelligence, Bengyu's face darkened. "Three days ago, a member of the Dahe Reconnaissance Team had an accident at the Hemu settlement. Why didn't they report it to me? Instead, they went on another solo reconnaissance mission."

The messenger looked embarrassed, unsure how to explain.

Although the three legions were developing separately, it did not mean they were not connected. The generals of the other two armies would not be as involved in everything as Bengyu.

Garuda doesn't care about anything else, as long as I don't make any mistakes, otherwise I'll be punished with his fists.

Xing Yan's situation is slightly better, but he still doesn't handle everything personally. He delegates most of the military affairs to his two disciples, Song Changwen and Li Chengsong, who are elite disciples of the True Realm Holy Land and are quite adept at managing these military matters.

"Phew, whatever, since it's already happened, I'll go see for myself!"

"Tell Beng Hu to prepare a team to come with me to check out the Hemu settlement!"

"By the way, send me the information about the Hemu settlement as well. A small settlement dared to attack our reconnaissance team. They seem to be quite extraordinary!"

"Yes, General!"

Thanks to Bengyu's hands-on approach, the entire legion operated extremely quickly. In just a quarter of an hour, an elite squad led by Benghu was assembled.

"Godfather, where are we headed? Are there any formidable opponents ahead?" Beng Hu asked with a hint of excitement in his eyes.

Bengyu patted Benghu's head and said helplessly, "Benghu, don't always think about fighting and killing. Sometimes you need to use your brain!"

"Brain? You and your godfather might have that, but I prefer to be more direct!"

Bengyu shook his head speechlessly upon hearing this. However, he was still young and strong. If Benghu didn't like to use his brain, then so be it. If Benghu was the same as Bengruo, then that would be a troublesome matter!

"By the way, Godfather, you haven't told me yet, are there any powerful enemies ahead?"

"No, it's just that some strange things have happened. There might be a powerful enemy involved. Come with me to take a look!"

"I'm starting to get excited that my godfather is finding this strange."

Being able to lead tens of thousands of people to wander freely in the Sunset Mountains, Bengyu naturally has a wealth of experience over the years. However, because the alien race is too ostracized, and Bengyu does not want to have contact with people from other tribes, he has been wandering deep in the mountains, so he does not know much about these tribes.

On his way to the Hemu settlement, Bengyu carefully checked the information about it. To be honest, there was nothing special about it; it was just an ordinary settlement where people lived normal lives.

This intelligence came from soldiers in the legion who had contact with the Hemu settlement, so it must be true. So the question is, how could they dare to attack the Xingyue tribe from an ordinary settlement?

"right here?"

Beng Hu looked at the dilapidated settlement in front of him with a hint of doubt on his face. What kind of strong people could there be in a place that looked so poor? Was his godfather joking with him?

"This is the place. Don't be impulsive, follow me!"

In Bengyu's eyes, the sky above this seemingly ordinary gathering place was radiating a very evil blood-red light. However, this was the first time Bengyu had seen such a blood-red light, and he had a bad instinctive feeling about it.

If Chen Jiuge and the others were there, they would probably recognize that this bloody light was resentment, which was emitted by people who suffered great pain before their death.

"Godfather, is it necessary to be so cautious?" Beng Hu was puzzled. With Godfather's strength, apart from a few people, what else was there to fear?
"No, Beng Hu, this time is different. I feel something is very wrong!"

"Do you remember the Heavenly Flame Tiger we encountered back then? This place feels even worse than when we met the Heavenly Flame Tiger!"

"real or fake?"

Beng Hu looked incredulous. You must know that Tianyan Hu is a being comparable to the limit of the King level. Because of its special talent, even an extremely powerful King level cultivator like Beng Yu would not dare to go head-to-head with it.

"Alright, let's go in and take a look!"

The inside and outside of the settlement looked almost identical; it was very dilapidated.

Both sides were lined with dilapidated wooden houses. In slightly better-off settlements, stone houses were usually built, or a mixture of both. Such an impoverished settlement was rare in the Sunset Mountains.

Even Bengyu suspected that this place might be the poorest region in the Sunset Mountains.

"General, we've made a discovery!"

"What is this?" Beng Hu, who rushed over upon hearing the commotion, was somewhat puzzled.

Before him lay a skeleton, its body completely mummified, its face withered and its features indistinguishable. If that were all, Beng Hu wouldn't be surprised, after all, there were quite a few ferocious beasts in the Sunset Mountains that used bloodsucking as their attack method.

But what's strange is that this mummified corpse was in a strange pose after death: hands clasped together, head tilted back, legs folded behind its back in an unusual way, and two dehydrated eyeballs positioned one above the other.

Those present were all warriors who had fought their way through mountains of corpses and seas of blood, but seeing this scene still sent a chill down their spines.

"Don't touch the body. Work in pairs, don't stray too far apart, and search the area again to see if there are any other similar bodies!"

"Yes, General."

Before long, the soldiers who had been searching the surrounding wooden huts all cried out, "I have some here!"

"I have some too, and there are three corpses, they look like a family!"

“I have two bodies here, they should be a couple!” “Don’t touch the bodies!” Sensing something was wrong, Bengyu emphasized again.

"General, we didn't move, but he moved the body!"

A terrified scream came from the nearby wooden houses.

The bloodthirsty beasts and brutal enemies did not frighten these warriors, but being resurrected from the dead was still too much for the cultivators of the Heavenly Gift Realm.

"boom"

With a single punch, the wooden house was completely destroyed. A withered corpse slowly pushed aside the debris on its body, its eyes, which were moving up and down, glowed with a red light, and a thick, dark green liquid even flowed from the corner of its mouth.

"Food, food!"

"It's all mine!"

The hoarse voice reached everyone's ears, and a bad premonition rose in their hearts.

Sure enough, the next moment, all the mummies in the entire Hemu settlement came back to life, and a pervasive feeling surged into my heart.

"What the hell? If you're going to die, then die properly!"

The hot-tempered Beng Hu grabbed a dried corpse by the neck and slammed it hard onto the ground. The dense cracks on the ground proved that Beng Hu had used all his strength.

As the dust settled, Beng Hu's ferocious grin froze: "How is this possible? It can still move?"

The aura emanating from these mummies wasn't actually very strong, probably only at the Silver Knife level. This is why Beng Hu attacked directly, hoping to break through the fear in everyone's hearts. However, his full-force attack had no effect, which was something Beng Hu hadn't expected.

"so hard!"

"They can't be hurt at all?"

"Beng Hu, keep an eye on things!"

After giving its instructions, Bengyu's palm was covered with a layer of fine fish scales. With each contraction and opening, the scales stood up, making it look from a distance as if Bengyu's palm was covered with barbs.

Ding Ding

With a single palm strike, a crisp metallic clang rang out. Beng Yu frowned slightly, then exerted force with his palm again. This time, the mummified corpse's powerful defense could not withstand it.

A green liquid mixed with streaks of blood slowly flowed from the wound.

"boom"

The emaciated corpse did indeed make a very heavy sound when it fell to the ground, and its weight was not as simple as it looked!
"Father!"

Beng Hu's somewhat hurried voice brought Beng Yu back to his senses.

The mummies have too high defense; Beng Hu can only repel them and cannot inflict any effective damage. Now that the number of mummies is increasing, Beng Hu can no longer protect everyone.

The Bengyu took a deep breath, and the scales on its gills stood up, while a row of bone spikes rose up along its spine. This was the Bengyu's state when it was attacking at full power.

After a muffled thud, all the mummies lay on the ground, and the green liquid recolored the earth.

"General, I think I see Dahe's corpse!"

One of the soldiers looked at the corpse on the ground with a complicated expression. As an elite soldier in the army, he knew most of them. Even if they were not very familiar with each other, they still knew what the corpse looked like.

"The river's corpse?"

Bengyu paused for a moment, then followed the gaze. Although the facial features were completely indistinguishable, the military uniform was still recognizable.

"It seems they really did have an accident here!"

"The mummified corpses have been completely dealt with. Let's search again. Such a strange change has occurred in the Hemu settlement. Something must be causing this!"

"Everyone be careful, and tell me immediately if you notice anything unusual!"

"Yes, General."

The Hemu settlement was not large, and without the influence of the mummified corpses, the entire settlement was searched in less than an hour.

"Is this the only anomaly?"

Bengyu arrived at the largest wooden house, where a Buddha statue with a half-smile was enshrined in the main hall.

This black Buddha statue, made of an unknown material, exudes a strange aura. Once you get close, you can feel a distinct chill, and even those present, who are not ordinary people, cannot help but feel a coldness.

"bang"

After crushing it with his bare hands, Bengyu realized something was wrong: "When?"

"Godfather, what should we do here?"

Beng Hu and the others did not notice anything unusual. Instead, they thought that Beng Yu had discovered the danger and nipped it in the bud.

Suppressing his surprise, Bengyu said calmly, "Yes, let's go back!"

Beyond the Sunset Mountains, in a secluded forest.

"Huh? The Corpse Demon Buddha I left behind has actually been broken?"

Hong Ri was slightly surprised, but then he thought of the natives he had met when he first arrived in the Heavenly Gift Realm. He wasn't too surprised, after all, he was only at the second step of the Great Luo Realm, and there were even third-step experts among these natives. It was normal that they could break through his Corpse Ghost Buddha.

"Fortunately, only one area was damaged, so it won't affect the overall situation!"

"What's more important now is the 'Measure of All Things'!"

As Hong Ri probed into his mind with his divine sense, he looked at the ruler radiating a silver halo and his expression darkened: "Even now, you still want to refuse?"

The Ruler of All Things twitched slightly, but did not respond, as if mocking the red sun, thinking, "You think you can become the host of the Nine Great Treasures?"

"If Xiao Jiu hadn't failed to return, causing the Nine Heavens Earth-Changing Array to lose a portion of its essence, you would have been mine long ago!"

Of the nine people who were once in the Tomb of the Dead, only the rebellious Xiao Jiu remained in Star Moon City. By chance, out of curiosity, he became Chen Jiuge's apprentice and learned the art of beast taming. He then stayed in Star Moon City and did not return, thus escaping a calamity.

Of the remaining eight, Xiao Ba died fighting against the invasion, and the other six were all sacrificed by the Red Sun. The other six probably never knew until their deaths that the reason they didn't save Xiao Ba wasn't because they weren't strong enough, but because the Red Sun needed their life essence!

As for its purpose, it is of course the Myriad Things Ruler, one of the nine great treasures!

"Phew, no rush. Although Xiao Jiu is missing, I have a backup plan. As long as the Corpse Demon Buddha can absorb a certain amount of essence blood, it won't be a big problem!"

"We've waited all these years, what's a little more!"

After the red sun's divine sense withdrew, a small old man appeared on the surface of the Myriad Things Ruler.

Dragging a white beard longer than his body, the old man kept wandering across the surface of the Myriad Things Ruler, a worried look on his face: "Why hasn't Zi Nu arrived yet? That damned girl won't betray me, will she?"

The old man's face showed a hint of fear when he thought that his future host would be the Red Sun.

Given Hong Ri's vengeful nature, once he becomes the host of the Ruler of All Things, he will most likely be wiped out, with a very small chance of being tortured to the point of ecstasy. As for whether he will have a good ending, he has no hope.

"No, we can't rely entirely on that Zi Nu guy. We have to prepare a backup plan!"

As the longest-surviving spirit of a supreme artifact, the Ruler of All Things naturally possesses its own set of methods; however, the extent of its effectiveness is entirely up to fate. (End of Chapter)
