The road is vague

Chapter 412 The Great Conflict of a Hundred Races
The distinctive feature of the ethereal Taoist tradition lies in its continuous progress toward dreams, hopes, and miracles.

The dreams of the ethereal demon race are for a more tenacious life, a stronger physique, greater power, and more outstanding talent.

Because of the Misty Box, Li Mo's development path is completely different from that of the Misty Daoist lineage.

His cultivation process was undoubtedly simpler; it seemed that all conditions were developing in a favorable direction, and he only needed to persevere, work hard, and explore.

"who are you?"

The Bloodthirsty War Bear King stared intently at Li Mo.

He was curious about the two thousand-faced birds, but as a member of the bear clan, he couldn't be bothered to care. However, this human who had cultivated the ethereal Dao lineage made him feel uneasy.

Li Mo didn't speak; he was somewhat puzzled.

Seeing that Li Mo did not respond, the bloodthirsty war bear king, who had originally come here only to rescue the rabbit people, gradually turned bloodshot.

He was actually preparing to unleash the Bear Clan's bloodthirsty talent.

As long as there is a continuous supply of blood and qi, the Bloodthirsty War Bear King's stamina is inexhaustible, and it possesses incredible regenerative and recovery abilities. However, this talent also has a negative effect: it will gradually lose its rationality and become a bloodthirsty monster.

As the Bloodthirsty War Bear King, he was known among all races for his two acts of bloodlust. He once fought a battle with the snow wolf pack of the far north ice plains for several days, resulting in rivers of blood.

It was because of this battle that the frost monsters that were ravaged by the harsh winter never dared to set foot in the Needle Leaf Ridge again.

Now, seeing that a mere human has actually cultivated a mysterious lineage, the Bloodthirsty War Bear King is enraged.

"How dare a mere human meddle in the ethereal Dao! Roar!"

The Bloodthirsty War Bear King let out a roar to the sky.

The ground beneath him, centered on his shadow, was rapidly swirling with snow in all directions. The surrounding area was swept by a fierce wind, bending the branches of the coniferous forest.

Gudong! Gudong! Gudong!

The Bloodthirsty War Bear King's aura rose steadily, seemingly increasing with each heartbeat, causing Li Mo, the Thousand-Faced King, and Princess Dai, who were already at a disadvantage, to change their expressions drastically.

The two sides were hundreds of feet apart, and Li Mo's protective aura was constantly being shattered.

The ink on his body never stopped, and the facial makeup of various characters flickered. Although it looked extremely strange, it was actually a demonic clone constantly taking some kind of damage for him.

What's even more terrifying is that Li Mo has no way of discerning the path and effect of this kind of harm.

"This guy is just too terrifying!"

Li Mo's eyelids twitched violently, and the thought of giving up crossed his mind. Even the money-stealing rat hiding in his sleeve was trembling.

However, this means that there will be fewer direct descendants in the process of establishing a stable place in the future, which is a real pity. Moreover, given the terrifying strength that this Bear King has shown, it will probably not be an easy task to escape smoothly.

at this time.

A sound came from the ground.

"Bear King! Stop right now!"

The Bloodthirsty War Bear King, surrounded by visible blood-red ripples, suddenly stopped moving. His bloodthirsty eyes looked down at the ground, and he couldn't help but frown slightly. It was Queen Zhang calling him.

Queen Zhang, one of the bear-men, looked anxious.

"This is a misunderstanding. My fellow countrymen were not captured by humans. They were migrating here voluntarily!"

Li Mo looked down at the ground and saw the rabbit girl among the many bear-men.

It must be said that this bunny girl is extremely charming and alluring; even as she anxiously calls out, she still exudes a captivating and seductive charm.

Li Mo narrowed his eyes slightly, immediately making the connection between the two, and made up his mind at the first moment that if the situation got out of control, he would immediately try to take them hostage at all costs, so that the bloodthirsty war bear king would hesitate to act rashly.

If it were during the Great Qian Dynasty, he certainly wouldn't have acted this way.

But he is no longer the inspector who only knew how to uphold justice.

Upon hearing this, the bloodlustful war bear king's eyes gradually lost their crimson light.

After observing the rabbit-people closely, he noticed that they were all armed and did not seem to be coerced, which made him somewhat suspicious.

Seeing this opportunity, Li Mo quickly said, "This Bear King must have some misunderstanding. These rabbit people were not coerced by us. On the contrary, we rescued them..."

The Bloodthirsty War Bear King listened to Li Mo's explanation, watched the rabbit people talking with Queen Zhang, and then looked at the Thousand-Year-Old King and Queen Dai, who had transformed into the Thousand-Faced Bird. Then, he narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Li Mo.

"Who exactly are you, and why have you cultivated the ethereal path of our Hundred Ethereal Races!"

Li Mo sensed the opponent's intense killing intent, which was almost tangible. After a slight pause, his thoughts raced, and he immediately understood.

He then let out a helpless sigh, and his body transformed into the form of a fox spirit.

"Now the Bear King should understand, right?"

Li Mo's melancholy expression as a fox-man immediately stunned the Bloodthirsty War Bear King. He quickly realized what was happening, his mouth agape as the bloodthirsty glint in his eyes vanished.

"You're a member of the Nine-Tailed Fox Organization!" Every race has its own troubles and worries.

If the Bear Clan's troubles lie in facing suppression from the Golden Lion Clan and the Bear Kings being divided by the wives of other clans, then the Nine Fox Clan's troubles and worries lie in the struggles with the Peacock Clan and the desperate resistance of the lower-ranking fox men.

The Nine Fox Clan is a matriarchal royal family.

Unwilling to be suppressed, the fox men established a secret organization called Nine-Tailed Fox.

These fox-men aspire to combine the talents of the Nine Fox Clan into one and cultivate a nine-tailed body, which contradicts the orthodox status that the Nine Fox Clan has gained by dividing its talents and establishing the nine imperial cities.

As for why the Nine Fox Clan differentiated its talents, that story begins after the ancient war, and has been lost to time.

The reason why this secret organization established by the fox man has survived and has never been eradicated by the Nine Fox Clan is not only due to the strong support of the Peacock Clan, but also because of the secret support from many other large and small clans that have poor relations with the Nine Fox Clan.

The Bloodthirsty War Bear King's muscular head conjured up a whole host of images in an instant, and upon seeing Li Mo's resentful expression, everything suddenly became clear.

"Haha! I see!"

The Bloodthirsty War Bear King showed no hostility whatsoever, which made the Thousand-Faced King and Princess Dai frown in the distance.

Then, Princess Dai seemed to realize something, and after a moment of clarity, she whispered to the Thousand-Faced King.

"Brother Su Qi... oh, no, Brother Su Ba, how are you?"

Amidst his casual conversation, the Bloodthirsty War Bear King uttered something that made Li Mo's eyelids twitch.

"I almost forgot, but I heard that twenty years ago, your leader had a fortuitous encounter in the Qian Kingdom, one of the six great nations of mankind, and has already cultivated an eight-tailed spirit body. He only needs the last tail to achieve perfect harmony with his innate talents and recreate the true form of the ancient ethereal spirit body. It is truly a cause for celebration."

Upon hearing this, Li Mo tried his best to respond flawlessly.

"I am sorry to have troubled you, King Bear. Given my lowly status, I have never even met Your Majesty."

Upon hearing this, the Bloodthirsty War Bear King showed a look of surprise.

"With your abilities, you still haven't met Brother Su? It seems your Nine-Tailed Organization is growing stronger and stronger. It's only a matter of time before you can rival those vile women of the Nine-Fox Clan. Oh, by the way, what clan do you belong to?"

Li Mo's thoughts raced.

"silver!"

Upon hearing this, the Bloodthirsty War Bear King scratched his head, revealing a hint of confusion.

"I thought it was the Tushan clan of Linghu City, but Yinshi City is also a great clan. I have something I would like to trouble you with. I wonder if you would be willing to help me make the trip? Well, I can pay you the corresponding reward in advance."

"Bear King, please give your orders."

The Bloodthirsty War Bear King chuckled and began to transmit a secret message.

"I've heard that the Nine Fox Clan possesses a kind of elixir that can greatly increase the fertility of offspring between different demon races. If you are willing to find a few of these in the future, I am willing to purchase them at three times the price. Furthermore, I can immediately dispatch a bear-man army to escort you to the vicinity of the Great Swamp."

"Oh? I wonder what kind of elixir it is?"

Li Mo showed a look of curiosity.

"It seems... it's called the Creation Pill. This pill requires the Blood Dragon Demon Crystal from across the Forbidden Sea as a catalyst, and only royal alchemy masters from a few major cities of the Nine Fox Clan can refine it."

Upon hearing the name "Creation Pill," Li Mo was initially startled.

Upon hearing that the alchemy of this pill required the Blood Flood Dragon Crystal from the other side of the Forbidden Sea as a catalyst, he couldn't help but think of the so-called Flood Dragons of the Lost Continent, who were the offspring of dragon people and other races.

Or perhaps this bear king has other motives?
Those in the distance exchanged bewildered glances as they watched Li Mo and the Bloodthirsty War Bear King secretly communicating.

The chiefs of the three major tribes on the ground, in particular, had brought their inherited methods, intending to use them in the upcoming great battle, but they were disappointed to see things turn out this way.

half a month later.

With the protection of the Bloodthirsty War Bear King, the rabbit people rested and replenished their supplies in the bear-man town before continuing their journey towards the Qingqiu Mountains.

It is worth mentioning that.

Some rabbit people chose to stay in Needle Ridge and follow Queen Zhang to develop in the territory of the War Bear Clan.

As promised, the Bloodthirsty War Bear King dispatched an elite force of bear-men from the Frost Bear tribe to protect the rabbit people as they left the Needle Ridge area. As the force moved further and further away and gradually disappeared into the snowstorm, the Bloodthirsty War Bear King finally withdrew his gaze.

"Bear King, why not keep them all here and let them travel thousands of miles to the Qingqiu Mountains?"

A hint of reproach and resentment flickered in Queen Zhang's eyes.

Upon hearing this, the Bloodthirsty War Bear King wrapped his arm around Queen Zhang's slender waist and chuckled.

"Ever since the Tiger Clan failed to establish the lineage of the King of Beasts a thousand years ago, the secret of the Spirit Transformation of our Hundred Clans has been hidden by the three royal clans to prevent the emergence of a new powerful clan that could threaten their position. This land has been at peace for too long, and it is extremely difficult for the kings of each clan to achieve Spirit Transformation."

After a sigh of regret, the Bloodthirsty War Bear King couldn't help but give a cold laugh.

"Decades ago, I had an encounter with Su Ba of the Nine-Tailed Organization. This man's talent and courage are extraordinary. He once mentioned that he wanted to become a Spirit Transformation King. The simplest way is to kill another Spirit Transformation King or wait for him to pass away so that I can comprehend and inherit his lineage. If I want to seize the secret to advancing to Spirit Transformation, I will most likely have to cooperate with this man."
