Beauty and the Bodyguard

"Oh, okay." Lin Yi's heart skipped a beat-he'd been curious about where this thing came from for a long, long time, and he'd finally be able to uncover the truth.

However, before that, the most important matter for him at this moment was naturally to put the heart-devouring exquisite grass in his bag.

To be honest, the fact that the heart-devouring exquisite grass was still intact after the ghost-eyed Golden Eagle's powerful wind made Lin Yi feel surprised and lucky. If the grass had been blown away along with the rocks, he'd be crying over his grave.

With one hand holding onto the tree trunk to stabilize his body, the other hand deftly kept all the heart-devouring exquisite grass into his bag. The remaining task was to find a way to return to the surface.

The vine rope was broken by the Eagle, but that didn't stop Lin Yi from climbing up. Humans were animals that could do anything when they were forced into a corner, not to mention Lin Yi was an early Foundation Stage master.

It didn't matter if the stone wall was steep or smooth.

Using the remaining pure Qi in his body, Lin Yi punched a deep hole in the cliff and easily found the point of leverage. One step up, one punch, one step up, and another punch. After leaving a horrifying fist pit, Lin Yi climbed up to the ground with ease.

He entered the Jade space and started recovering his Qi as he turned to the ghostly thing,""Senior ghost, can you tell me now?"

The demonic thing didn't answer and instead asked,"you should have guessed my origin, right?" Let's hear it first. "

Lin Yi was stunned for a moment before answering,"from what I can see, senior ghost, you're probably someone from Sky Class Island. You're probably a Big Shot too. I wonder if this is a good guess?"

The ghastly thing smiled noncommittally and said,""You're half right and half wrong-I was born on Sky Class Island, that's true, but when did I say I was human?"

"Ha?" Lin Yi was dumbfounded. After a while, he said, "Y-you're not human?"

"Look at me now, kid. Which part of me looks like a human?" The ghastly thing chuckled.

"You don 't, but aren't you in your primordial spirit state? it's normal for you to not look like a human." Lin Yi pouted, speechless.

When he first encountered the ghostly thing, he did not treat it as a human, but a ghost. However, even if it was a ghost, they would have thought that it was a ghost after death. Who would have thought that this guy was not a human when he was alive!

"Then, are you a spirit beast?" Lin Yi asked carefully. If it wasn't a human, then it had to be a spirit beast. He'd never heard of any other creature that had intelligence comparable to a human.

"That's right, I'm indeed a spirit beast. But as for what my true form is, you don't have to ask. You'll know when the time comes." "You've been in the welcome Pavilion for a long time. You should have heard about the spirit beast clan, right?"the ghostly thing paused for a moment and said.

It was indeed a spirit beast! Lin Yi suddenly remembered that when he was in the common world, the ghost said that small one's body wasn't suitable for martial arts. Lin Yi thought it was weird at first, but now that he thought about it, the ghost was a spirit beast, just like the purple lightning Beast. It might be good at some lightning or physical martial arts. It would be a miracle if small one could use it!

Lin Yi nodded,"I've heard Lu Shixiong and ku Shixiong talk about it when I was free. They say that there are a lot of high level spirit beasts gathered on the South Island of the Sky Class Island. Each of them is extremely powerful. They've formed a powerful force called the spirit beast clan!"

"That's right. Do you know how the spirit beast clan came about? You must know that in the beginning, no matter how powerful the spirit beasts are, they all fought on their own, just like what you saw in the outer area of the back mountain. They never joined forces, nor did they form a huge force. " The ghastly thing said with a sigh.

"I'm all ears," Lin Yi's ears perked up-this was a great opportunity to learn more about the Sky Class island's forces. He might need it in the future, so he naturally had to remember it.

"The formation of the spirit beast clan is based on a spirit beast. It is the most powerful spirit beast in history. We call it the king of spirit beasts."

The ghastly thing's tone was filled with unparalleled respect and admiration as it continued,""Its power can't be described with words, but you only need to know one thing to understand. 10000 years ago, in order to suppress its rise, the Sky Class island's three strongest Masters joined forces to fight it, but the final result was that it never lost."

Undefeatable meant undefeatable, but Lin Yi was still in awe. Against three of humanity's strongest Masters working together, undefeatable meant victory.

Lin Yi was only in the early phase of the Foundation Stage-he was just starting out on Sky Class Island. He didn't have a clear idea of how strong the strongest could be, but that didn't stop him from imagining the fight.

That battle would definitely be recorded in history.

"After that battle, no one could stop it. It beat down the strongest spirit beasts one by one and made them submit to it. They followed it to the South of the sky-class Island and dominated the area. From then on, there was the so-called spirit beast clan. " The ghastly thing sighed.

Lin Yi interrupted, confused."Senior ghost, since the spirit beast clan is located in the southern part of the island, it should be rare to see them in other places. Why are there so many spirit beasts in the back mountain?"

"Spirit beasts are different from humans. It's impossible for the various races to live in peace. Some of them are even born to feed on the spirit beasts of other races. The southern part of the island was once in turmoil because of this problem, but it was later suppressed by the king of the spirit beasts and left behind a rule. "

"Spirit beasts of all races can only enter the southern part of the island after they have reached a certain level and are able to completely suppress their bestial instincts. Before that, they can only be scattered all over the place. Just like the spirit beasts you've seen in the back mountain, the spirit beast clan has never interfered when they kill each other or human cultivators. "

"However, if they are acknowledged to enter the southern island and officially become members of the spirit beast clan, they are forbidden from killing each other. If human cultivators dare to attack them, they will become enemies with the entire spirit beast clan and will not rest until one of them is dead." (To be continued.)
