We're Rich!

"Yeah!"

"This is highly unusual!"

"Not a single Demonic Beast can be seen in the black mist. This has simply never happened before."

The many elders looked at one another, all finding it unbelievable.

In their hearts,

a faint, inexplicable worry surfaced as well.

More often than not, it was the unknown that frightened people most.

"What do we do next?"

One elder could not help asking.

"Let's keep moving forward and take a look!"

The Tianbi Sect elder said, "We have to find out what exactly happened."

Everyone nodded.

The spirit vessel maintained a steady speed as it continued into the black mist.

However,

after traveling a great distance farther, they still had not seen a single Demonic Beast.

This completely unsettled everyone.

If there were no Demonic Beasts in only one area, it might have been a coincidence. But if there were no Demonic Beasts across a vast region, then something must have gone wrong.

"Look over there."

Just then, one of the elders cried out in alarm, his eyes wide as though he had seen something utterly inconceivable.

At his words,

everyone turned to look in the direction he indicated.

With that one look, everyone aboard the spirit vessel was dumbstruck.

Because ahead of them stood a small mountain.

And that small mountain was actually piled entirely from Demonic Beast corpses.

"Quick."

"Get closer and take a look."

An elder shouted.

The spirit vessel slowly drew near and arrived before the small mountain. This time, they saw it even more clearly—it truly was a small mountain formed from piled Demonic Beast corpses.

"How many corpses could there be here?"

One elder asked in disbelief.

Everyone shook their heads. No one could answer him.

"Why did they die here in such massive numbers?" Another elder raised the question.
