The Silver Moon’s Radiance!_3 Chapter 529: Chapter 189: Alien Beasts of Heaven and Earth!

The Silver Moon’s Radiance!_3 “Indeed!

In the previous encounter, we lost two men and were effortlessly eluded by it.

This time, we must capture it!” The one known as Elder Miao was a gaunt old man, his deep-set eyes wearing a black robe, but the cold glint in those eyes was enough to send shivers down one’s spine.

Even the Innate Elders of the East Star Sect held a considerable fear of Elder Miao, solely because he was not only one of the strongest in the sect, second only to Dong Yunkuang in terms of Cultivation Realm, but also adept in the eerie art of poison tactics.

One careless move, and you could be ensnared!

“Alien Beasts…

If I can kill that Alien Beast, it will be my fortune!

Selling it to the Great Flame Royal Family, I could mostly likely gain a chance to enter the Cave of Ten Thousand Soldiers, and perhaps I can comprehend Blade Intent and advance further!”
Dong Yunkuang’s eyes were fervent.

Alien Beasts are strange creatures, incredibly rare, even more so than Demon Monsters; to say their entire body is a treasure would be no exaggeration.

In ancient times, a powerful group of creatures known as True Beasts existed, like dragons, phoenixes, qilin, and other mythical creatures, which were among the types of True Beasts.

They were few in number, capable of controlling the weather, possessing a might beyond the common man’s imagination!

Therefore, countless strong folk hunted True Beasts, eating their flesh, drinking their blood to strengthen themselves.

Even Martial Saints risked downfall by slaying dragons and phoenixes, seeking their flesh and blood, thus leaving behind many immortal tales!

In the present era, True Beasts had almost been driven to extinction and become the stuff of legends.

Looking back over two to three thousand years of history in the Great Flame Empire, the last time a True Beast appeared within its borders was a thousand years ago, a creature encountered once in a millennia.

It’s said that during that appearance, numerous Martial Saints took action to hunt it, and even powerhouses from the other nine empires and nations coveted it, proving the strength and rarity of True Beasts.

There are two theories about Alien Beasts.

One says that these so-called Alien Beasts are wild beasts that have consumed heavenly materials and treasures and have returned to their Innate state, hence becoming extraordinary and powerful!

The other theory suggests that Alien Beasts are the descendants of True Beasts, born with extraordinary bloodlines.

Alien Beasts are tens or hundreds of times rarer than Demon Monsters, hard to find in this world.

Although they cannot compare to the prized creatures like dragons, phoenixes, and qilin from legends, they are still considered treasures from head to toe.

Eating the flesh and blood of Alien Beasts, even for mighty Martial Artists, could be a nine-deaths-one-life ordeal.

However, if one could survive, the process could completely transform them, endowing them with a unique constitution and breaking through previously insurmountable limits aEUR” not inferior to miraculous pills at all!

If traces of an Alien Beast are found, even a Five-Qi Grandmaster would take the initiative to hunt it personally.

The reason the East Star Sect launched an extensive campaign to Silver Moon Mountain and directly killed and silenced other Martial Artists that stumbled upon the scene was simple: an Alien Beast was lurking in Silver Moon Mountain!

Having received the news, Dong Yunkuang himself led the elite and experts of his sect to this place to hunt the Alien Beast.

This Alien Beast was incredibly powerful.

Dong Yunkuang and the other powerhouses had previously engaged in a fierce battle with it, but had failed to gain any advantage.

Their side lost two Innate Martial Artists, and the Alien Beast fled and went into hiding.

After some discussions, Dong Yunkuang and his men changed their strategy, opting for a direct combat approach.

Even if they could emerge victorious, it was feared that they would suffer heavy casualties among their Innate Martial Artists.

Dong Yunkuang decided to first weaken the Alien Beast’s strength, and the method he thought of was to use poison.

The Alien Beast had also sustained some injuries previously and needed high-quality food to replenish itself, so Dong Yunkuang had Elder Miao, an expert in the art of poison within his sect, place poisonous insects in the bodies of their elite disciples, deliberately dispersing them to search for the Alien Beast.

Given the strength of the Alien Beast, once these Qi-Blood Realm Martial Artists split up, encountering it would mean sending themselves to death.

And when these Qi-Blood Realm Martial Artists were devoured alive by the Alien Beast, the poisonous insects planted within them would naturally enter the body of the Alien Beast.

The more it ate, the more poisonous insects it would ingest.

Then, with Elder Miao’s manipulation, these insects could greatly affect the Alien Beast during the fierce battle, ensuring it was almost certain to be captured!

This method was simple and vicious, using the lives of their own disciples as bait.

However, for Dong Yunkuang, the loss of dozens of disciples was a trivial price to pay if it meant capturing an Alien Beast.

If they could hunt down the Alien Beast, even if Dong Yunkuang didn’t consume its flesh and blood himself, or sold parts of it to the Great Flame Royal Family, he could exchange them for tremendous benefits!

The Great Flame Royal Family controlled a place called the Cave of Ten Thousand Soldiers, which provided an environment conducive to comprehending Intent Realm.

If he could enter it just once, Dong Yunkuang felt he might comprehend the Blade Intent, a prerequisite for becoming a Five-Qi Grandmaster.

Once he became a Five-Qi Grandmaster, he would be qualified to aspire to the rank of Martial Saint!

“As soon as that Alien Beast appears to hunt our sect’s disciples, we’ll rush over and surround it for the kill!”
Dong Yunkuang said coldly, his eyes revealing a piercing chill.

It would be safest to wait a bit longer, but Mu Yangwen and the others had been gone for so long, he was worried that an accident might have occurred.

Tonight, they had to make their move.

As soon as the Alien Beast showed itself, they would engage in the final battle!

“It’s so quiet…”
It was deep into the night, and as the moon rose over Silver Moon Mountain, its light draped the area in a layer of silver veil.

The wind rustled the branches of the trees, producing a soft sibilant sound, adding to the eerie silence.

Su Changkong sat cross-legged beneath a large tree, calmly waiting.

According to the information Su Changkong had, Dong Yunkuang and his followers were hunting some kind of monster.

Given the exceptional care the East Star Sect was taking, it must be something potent.

He just needed to wait for the East Star Sect to confront this unknown monster.

Hiding in the shadows and striking with a cold shot at the vital moment, he could potentially take them all down!

Su Changkong pondered silently, keeping an ear out for any disturbances around him.

“Hmm?” Suddenly, Su Changkong’s face changed, as he got a sense of a very faint movement in the air; almost imperceptible to the average person, it was like a gentle breeze that no one would notice.

However, it immediately set off alarm bells in Su Changkong’s mind!
