Devil beasts

Devil beasts (魔怪 moguai), from the Devil Realm

XTD inner sect disciples face them in the Inner sect competition and Infernal Devil Abyss. The three-meter-tall devil beasts flooded over them. The disciples were in a barren land that stretched as far as they could see. An aura of decay filled the air, and this barren land was covered in innumerable devil beasts.

## Ranks

Although their bodies weren't huge, their auras were very tyrannical.

Furthermore, some of these devil beasts were stronger than the others. Black runes covered their bodies, and that powerful pressure was clearly the aura of eighth rank devil beasts.

The eighth rank for devil beasts was equivalent to human cultivators' Foundation Forging realm. They were very powerful.

As the endless devil beasts rushed over, the ground constantly shook. As they got closer, people saw that some devil beasts were like apes that had grown fangs, some were like crocodiles in human form, and some only had limbs with no head. It was unknown what they were.

Even from dozens of miles away, they could smell the scent of decay and death pouring over them. It was no wonder this place was called the Infernal Devil Abyss. It was like they were facing devils from hell.

## Anatomy

Black blood and flesh flew through the air. It was miserable and bloody, but these devil beasts didn't seem to have any fear of death. They continued to crazily charge forward even as they saw their companions being killed.

Long Chen was studying a devil beast's head that had just been cut off.

That devil beast's teeth were as sharp as a Treasure item. Black lines covered in the teeth that emitted the aura of death.

This was a special aura, and once bitten, it would invade your body. Even Heavenly Dao energy had trouble erasing it, so being injured by a devil beast was a very troublesome matter.

Long Chen snapped off one of its half-a-foot-long teeth and carefully examined its aura. For some unknown reason, he felt another very familiar aura within its sinister aura.

## Yuan Energy

Any creature would feel innate fear toward danger and death. But these devil beasts didn't. They didn't even have spiritual fluctuations.

If they didn't have bodies of flesh, Long Chen would suspect that they were puppets made to kill people.

"Puppets... they really are like puppets."

Long Chen's eyes brightened. These devil beasts were just like a kind of puppet. Their attacks were practically instinctual, and that was the basic nature of a puppet.

Long Chen reached into the devil beast's chest and pulled out a black stone.

The stone was the size of a baby's fist, and it was covered in lines that were like wriggling centipedes. It looked very evil.

But he also sensed another kind of energy fluctuations within this stone. He suddenly cried out, "These are yuan energy fluctuations! It's practically the same as the fluctuations from yuan spirit stones!"

Only a small amount of the devil beast core's energy was yuan spiritual energy. The energy inside was complicated. The yuan spiritual energy only made up a tenth of its energy. The remaining ninety percent was a berserk, dark kind of energy, and that kind of energy was poison to cultivators. There was no way to extract the yuan spiritual energy like this, so there was no way to use this stone.

## 9th rank

That was a thirty-meter devil beast with an ox head and rodent body. It was covered in fine veined patterns, and there was a long tail growing out of its back.

Its roar caused the sky to shake, and a terrifying pressure crashed down upon them, making everyone's hair stand on end.

As the ninth rank devil beast charged over, it knocked aside any seventh and eighth rank devil beasts in its path. The ground trembled as it moved.
