684 The Hunt and the Feast

"A Magic Beast lord has appeared ahead!"

"What kind of Magic Beast is it?"

"It seems to be a thirteenth-rank Thunder Eel Magic Beast minor lord. It had been lurking deep within a hollow beneath a huge boulder when it suddenly sprang out and fired a bolt of lightning, killing over a dozen Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivators. That lightning attack was far too fast—the cultivator team that got hit did not even have time to flee before the entire team was wiped out."

"A lightning-element Magic Beast lord? That's a rare sight indeed!"

As the Nascent Soul Cultivators retreated in disorder, they also exchanged the latest intelligence.

Hearing the chaotic discussions of the many cultivators retreating from the front, Ye Qin finally learned the exact situation ahead. A Magic Beast lord—even a minor lord—possessed the strength of the thirteenth rank, far surpassing Nascent Soul Cultivators.

"Should I run?"

He now faced a choice: whether to immediately flee this place and take a detour to continue onward.

Just as Ye Qin was preparing to leave, he suddenly noticed something strange. While a great number of Nascent Soul Cultivators were fleeing back in panic, several elite Nascent Soul Cultivator teams were actually pushing forward against the tide, their faces brimming with excitement as they charged toward the chaos.

No fewer than a thousand Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivators remained at the spot where the Thunder Eel minor lord had first been discovered. Violent booms rang out without pause.

Those Nascent Soul Cultivators actually wanted to kill that Magic Beast minor lord?!

Ye Qin was somewhat shocked.

But after a brief moment of confusion, he understood.

In the East Sea immortal cultivation world, a Spirit Transformation cultivator or a Demon Sage could beat the Nascent Soul Cultivators of the entire East Sea
