Chapter 128 Did you save him?
The cat clan chief was standing by the altar, presiding over the ceremony with complete concentration, chanting incantations and making intricate hand gestures with his hands.
Beside him are the cat clan elders and Elder Xue.
“We must stop them.” Yue Qing said resolutely. “It looks like the ceremony will be completed soon.”
Silver Tiger's golden pupils narrowed, flashing with a dangerous light: "Let's launch a surprise attack while they're at the most crucial point of their ritual and can't afford to be distracted."
Yu Yun and the catwoman nodded, their faces showing a resolute determination to die for their cause.
The four exchanged a glance, then, without further hesitation, stealthily made their way towards the heavily guarded altar like ghosts in the night.
As they broke through the outer perimeter and were about to approach the cave entrance, a sharp alarm suddenly pierced the night sky!
"Intruder!"
Elder Xue and the cat clan chief suddenly looked up, a fierce glint flashing in their eyes.
"You've come at the perfect time! Let me show you the true power of the Beast God!" Elder Xue sneered, grabbing a pottery jar containing a small amount of the Beast God's source blood that had been fully catalyzed, and said in a sinister voice.
He and the cat clan chief drank the source blood in one gulp, and at the same time, several trusted cat clan warriors guarding the altar followed suit.
In an instant, their bodies cracked and popped, their muscles bulged, their eyes turned bloodshot, and their aura surged!
"kill!"
Battle is imminent!
Silver Tiger was the first to be hit, and his terrifying SS-level pressure suddenly erupted. However, when his golden energy claws, which were powerful enough to tear mountains apart, struck the mutated cat warriors, he felt an invisible resistance.
A strange energy field permeated the area around the altar, which seemed to suppress his power, making him feel as if he were trapped in quagmire, and his offensive stalled!
The eerie energy field not only suppressed Silver Tiger, but even Yueqing felt a sudden stagnation, as if invisible threads were binding her, slowing down her usually proud speed.
Yu Yun and the catwoman's attacks were also affected, their power greatly reduced.
"Hahaha, it's useless!" Elder Xue laughed triumphantly and hoarsely. "This altar has drawn upon the power of the earth's veins and is further enhanced by the will of the Beast God. Your power will be infinitely weakened here, while we will only grow stronger!"
Before the words were even finished, the cat warriors who had drunk the blood of the Beast God roared and pounced forward.
Their speed and strength have indeed been terrifyingly amplified, and their moves have become more ruthless, a style of fighting where they trade blows for blows.
Silver Tiger snorted angrily, its golden pupils burning with even more fury. Although its SS-level pressure was blocked, its powerful physique and fighting instincts remained intact.
He swayed, dodging the claws of a mutated cat warrior, and struck him in the chest with a backhand. A dull cracking sound rang out, and the cat warrior screamed and flew backward, but struggled to his feet, his crimson eyes filled with nothing but a frenzied bloodlust.
"These guys have become puppets who feel no pain!" Yu Yun swung his sword to dodge the attack of two cat warriors, his arm slightly numb, his expression solemn.
Yueqing was anxious, her eyes quickly scanning the battlefield.
The cat clan chieftain continued chanting incantations at the altar, the light of the Seed of Life growing dimmer, while the Beast God's Blood Pool, which it had catalyzed, shone brightly red, emanating a nauseating aura of blood and evil.
"We must destroy the altar first, or reclaim the Seed of Life!" Yue Qing shouted, her figure suddenly accelerating as she tried to bypass the fighting warriors and rush straight to the altar.
"Don't even think about it!" Elder Xue's eyes flashed with cold light, and her figure appeared like a ghost in front of Yue Qing, her withered claws carrying a chilling force as they grabbed at her face.
At this critical moment, Silver Tiger sensed Yueqing's perilous situation, roared, and forcefully activated the energy within his body, attempting to break through the suppression of the energy field and rescue Yueqing.
However, Elder Xue had anticipated this. He smiled sinisterly, and with his other hand, he had already condensed a ball of dark red energy that was more solid and more evil. He seized the momentary opening in Silver Tiger's heart, which was created by forcibly stimulating his energy, as his old strength had just been exhausted and his new strength had not yet been generated.
"Silver Tiger, watch out!" Yue Qing was horrified. Seeing the fatal attack about to hit her, she almost instinctively turned around without thinking and stood in front of Silver Tiger!
In the blink of an eye, the life energy within Yueqing's body, which originated from the Seed of Life and was transformed through her own unique physique, resonated once again with the golden tiger clan power surging around Silver Tiger due to its forced eruption!
A soft yet resilient cyan-gold aura suddenly erupted from Yueqing's body, instantly forming a peculiar energy shield that enveloped her and the silver tiger.
"Bang!"
Elder Xue's ball of evil energy crashed hard into the cyan-gold shield, but instead of breaking through it, it was as if it had hit an indestructible mirror, with most of the power being directly reflected back!
Caught off guard, Elder Xue was shaken by the aftershock of the energy she had emitted, causing her blood and qi to surge. She groaned and staggered back several steps, her face full of surprise and uncertainty.
He stared intently at the mysterious and powerful energy connection between Yueqing and the Silver Tiger. The cyan-gold light possessed both the purity of the Seed of Life and the domineering power of the Tiger Clan King. The perfect fusion of these two completely different forces produced such an incredible effect.
Elder Xue steadied himself, his gaze sweeping over Yue Qing like a venomous snake.
Looking at the special healing energy on Yueqing, which he could still vaguely sense, similar to the one he had perceived on a chaotic night deep in his memory, and seeing the almost instinctive and unusual energy resonance between her and Yin Hu, several fragments flashed through his mind.
Yueqing had inexplicably become pregnant and gave birth, and Yinhu, after being on the verge of death and severely injured, not only miraculously recovered but also seemed to have experienced a subtle improvement in his strength...
A vague memory, which he had deliberately suppressed and almost forgotten, flashed through his mind like lightning: he had encountered a severely injured and unconscious Silver Tiger outside a secret stronghold of the Beast God's ritual, and had cleverly used a special, evil method that was being experimented with at the time to treat him, attempting to control or destroy him.
At the time, he thought his treatment had failed. Silver Tiger's life force had actually recovered, though weakly, but it was indeed improving. He thought it was because Silver Tiger had a strong life force, or because other tiger clan elders had secretly intervened.
But now, in the scene before me, there is that familiar healing aura emanating from Yueqing.
An absurd yet seemingly the only reasonable guess began to form wildly in his mind.
He stared intently at Yue Qing, then looked incredulously at the cold-faced Yin Hu, and cried out, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! That night... Yin Hu was seriously injured... Could it be you?! You saved him?!"
