Chapter 1436 The Whereabouts of the Great Xia Divine Beast
As the wolf Lai Fu bit through the throat of the last severely injured giant rat, the entire battlefield finally returned to silence.
Lin Qiye waved his hand to disperse the summoning magic and looked down at the small golden dragon on his wrist, which had dimmed considerably compared to before, showing how terrifyingly large the mental energy consumption of a top-tier forbidden spell was… Lin Qiye estimated that with the remaining national fortune power, he could at most cast three to four more forbidden spells before the small golden dragon would completely disappear.
When Huo Qubing originally gifted them the national fortune, he intended for the luck within to be enough for them to fight freely for two days and two nights without worrying about consumption, but he never imagined that Lin Qiye would consume such an enormous amount of fortune with just one forbidden spell.
“Lord Qiye!”
White Tiger Fang Mo had already returned to her original form and quickly walked to Lin Qiye and the others, excitedly saying, “Lord Qiye, so you were here too…”
Lin Qiye smiled, “We were just passing by. After clearing this wave of beasts, we’ll immediately head to the front lines.”
As they spoke, other Night Watchers also came over, looking at the [Nightfall] team with admiration.
“Instructor Lin, how is the situation at the front lines?” Li Zhenzhen asked curiously.
“…Not good.”
After a moment of silence, Fang Mo took the initiative to speak, “Lord Qiye, we can actually go to the front lines too… I’ve already broken through to the ‘Sea’ realm.”
“Me too, I’ve also reached the ‘Sea’ realm,” Li Zhenzhen raised her hand as well, her expression very solemn.
Several other Night Watchers also spoke up, their eyes filled with determination.
Lin Qiye’s gaze swept across everyone, and he smiled and shook his head, “It hasn’t gotten that serious yet. When that day truly comes, we’ll naturally call you over… Until then, even if the sky falls, we’ll be the ones holding it up.”
Hearing these words, Fang Mo and the others sighed with disappointment.
“Although we’ve dealt with this wave of beasts, to be safe, you should still follow Commander Zuo’s orders and temporarily station yourselves in Jiangcheng City and the surrounding cities. Each team should send one or two people back to guard their own cities,” Lin Qiye said after thinking for a moment.
“Yes.”
The Night Watchers gathered around dispersed. An Qingyu approached, dragging a giant rat corpse with one hand and a charred yaksha with the other.
“Speaking of which, I’ve been confused about something… Where did the Indian Temple of Gods get so many divine beasts from?” Cao Yuan asked puzzledly. “Not only can they tie down a war fortress guarded by many human powerhouses and Night Watchers, but they can also break through the blockade and charge directly into Daxia’s territory?”
“These aren’t divine beasts in the true sense. They should be artificially bred and raised,” An Qingyu threw the two corpses on the ground and said seriously.
“In Indian mythology, although there are many divine beasts, they’re similar to Daxia’s in that they appear individually and don’t exist as racial groups… If I’m not mistaken, the gods of the Temple of Gods crossbred divine beasts to accelerate their reproduction, using vast amounts of time to create these monstrosities. Although they have god-realm strength, they can’t be considered legitimate ‘divine beasts.'”
Lin Qiye immediately recalled the black crocodile he encountered on the island, which also appeared as a group.
“Crossbreeding their own divine beasts… they went to such lengths to attack Daxia?” Jiang Er frowned slightly. “Wasn’t Brahma supposed to be a benevolent god?”
“In legends, Brahma from a hundred years ago was indeed dominated by benevolence, but now… who can say for sure?” Baili Pangpang shrugged.
Everyone fell silent for a moment, then sighed deeply.
“What about our Daxia divine beasts?”
“…Have Daxia’s divine beasts crossbreed too? We’re not that heartless, are we?” Baili Pangpang’s expression was extremely strange.
“No, I mean we don’t seem to have seen many of Daxia’s divine beasts?” Jiang Er thought for a moment. “So far, we’ve only seen Howling Celestial Dog, Baize, White Tiger… Where are the other divine beasts?”
“That’s a complex question.” Baili Pangpang paused. “Let me put it this way: Daxia’s divine beasts can basically be divided into two categories. One type follows the Celestial Court, like the Howling Celestial Dog, Baize, Azure Dragon, White Tiger, and so on. The other type consists of legendary great ferocious beasts.
The ferocious beasts were disasters by nature, and most were hunted down hundreds of years ago. Even if some survived, they fled from Daxia’s territory.
As for the benevolent beasts, most entered reincarnation with Daxia’s gods during the great calamity a hundred years ago. However, since they didn’t have divine marks or laws, after entering reincarnation, except for some stronger beings, others likely transformed into different creatures and couldn’t respond to the Celestial Court’s summons.
As for where those stronger divine beasts went… I’m not sure either.”
“This, perhaps I know.”
Everyone turned to look at Lin Qiye, who glanced at the departing Fang Mo and others in the distance, then slowly said,
“Before repairing the Celestial Court, the Twelve Golden Immortals chose twelve proxies from Cangnan, and using divine artifacts and divine beasts as nexuses, allowed the two to coexist as one, becoming proxies for Daxia’s Golden Immortals… Fang Mo is from there.”
“You mean the Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, Black Tortoise, and other divine beasts might all exist within the bodies of certain Golden Immortal proxies, like Fang Mo?” Cao Yuan asked in surprise. “Where are they exactly?”
“In a time chamber established by True Lord Yudding. However, they’re too young now, and their strength wouldn’t be greater than Fang Mo’s. Even if released, they wouldn’t have a decisive impact on the battle situation.” Lin Qiye sighed deeply. “You could say their very existence is the seed of continuation prepared by Daxia’s gods…”
“I see.” An Qingyu nodded. “If one day these eleven Golden Immortal proxies emerge… it must be a magnificent sight.”
“Perhaps, but the urgent matter now is the divine battle at the front lines,” Cao Yuan said solemnly. “We should hurry there.”
Everyone nodded in agreement, but just as they were about to set off, Lin Qiye suddenly spoke:
“Wait!”
The others paused and turned back puzzled.
They saw Lin Qiye looking thoughtfully at the terrifying deep hole burned out by the [Yan Flame Sky-Covering Technique]:
“Actually, I just had a thought… a very bold idea.”
