In the image revealed by the Eye of Ti, after the Demon Clan, Insect Race, and Blood Clan jointly drove those slaves away, another group of people appeared behind them!
This group of people was following those demons and slaves from afar, acting discreetly, occasionally turning their heads to look around, cautiously observing everything around them.
Their appearance was also quite strange; their upper body resembled that of humans, but the lower body was a long, giant snake tail, and they undulated forward by twisting the tail.
Among them, leading the group was an elder with vivid red snake scales, whose aura was unfathomable, even more formidable than the Pain Acolyte seen before with the whip. He must have entered the Ascension Stage long ago and advanced several levels in this stage as a supre powerhouse.
Such a level of powerhouse, even in the Central Continent, would only be found among the leaders of racial holy lands or large powers, like the 295-level Barbarian Saint who personally went to Hero’s Continent to hunt Huang Yi before from the Half-Beast Holy Land!
Figures of this tier, with a single command, would have countless followers, holding noble positions, generally disdain to do such sneaky tracking of others.
Yet this Red Scaled Warrior was leading a group of subordinates, quietly tracking the demons ahead.
Could there be another force also tracking those demons?
What is their purpose?
Huang Yi suddenly felt a multitude of doubts in his heart.
"Brother Yi, did you discover sothing new?" At this mont, Young Master Luo will Lead You saw the shocked expression on Huang Yi’s face and couldn’t help but ask. The rest of them were also staring closely at Huang Yi.
Huang Yi took a deep breath and closed the Eye of Ti, nodding, "Yes! I discovered sothing new. Besides us, there is another group also tracking those demons. The leader among them is a supre powerhouse of level over 290! These people have a human-like upper body, and a huge snake tail on the lower body. I wonder if there is such a looking tribe in the Blood Moon Continent?"
"A human-like upper body and a snake tail lower body?" Young Master Luo will Lead You tilted his head to think for a mont and shook his head, "The Blood Moon Continent doesn’t have such a tribe! And you said the leader is a supre expert over 290 levels; in the entire Blood Moon Continent, there’s only one person who has reached that power, which is our Blood Clan’s leader, but from your description of appearance, it’s clearly not him. To my knowledge, even the strongest in the Central Continent have no such figure with a human body and snake tail at this level."
"Then, they should co from outside the Second World, possibly Nagas from the First World!" Huang Yi said thoughtfully.
Previously he heard the dean of Oskan Royal Academy ntion the appearance of Nagas. Nagas have Nasha’s bloodline, with a human-like upper body and a snake tail lower body, which is just identical to those people seen in the Eye of Ti.
Moreover, Nagas are among the strongest races in the First World. According to the dean, their leader, dusa the Gorgon, is an extrely powerful Divine Domain expert. So naturally, there would be a batch of Ascension Tier experts within the Naga Tribe, and this elder with red scales could likely be one of them.
If this is indeed the case, then the purpose of this Naga group visiting the Second World becos very mysterious.
They quietly ca to the Second World, not going elsewhere, but ca specifically to the Blood Moon Continent to track the demons. What on earth for?
"This trip to the Blood Moon Continent might be more complicated than we originally envisaged!" Huang Yi turned to glance at the others, cautioning, "Everyone be more careful! Our advantage now is hiding in the shadows; the Demon Clan, Blood Clan, Insect Race, and even the Nagas behind still don’t know of our existence."
"Okay! Then I’ll continue to scout ahead!" Young Master Luo will Lead You said, once more flying into the sky, hurrying along the path of footprints.
Huang Yi and the others deliberately delayed for a bit, following from afar, continuing onward.
...
In the blink of an eye, two days passed.
During these two days, Huang Yi and others spent most of their ti on the move, except for logging out to eat, drink, and use the toilet.
In fact, given their flying speed, it wouldn’t have taken them so long, but on the Blood Moon Continent, they had to be cautious and didn’t dare to fly at full speed.
That evening, Huang Yi and his companions finally reached the edge of the swamp. The ground below had little mud and water, starting to turn into hard soil. The type of vegetation had also changed, and ahead was a vast expanse of plains.
At this mont, the Bright Moon had begun to rise into the sky but was half obscured by the Red Star, making the moon appear as a blood moon. The blood-colored moonlight and starlight poured over the plains ahead, lending it a strange beauty.
"Brother Yi, I found them." At this mont, Huang Yi suddenly received a ssage from Young Master Luo will Lead You.
Their hearts skipped a beat, and they sped up, soon reaching the waiting Young Master Luo will Lead You upahead.
Right now, he was hovering at the edge of the plains, hesitating to move forward. Seeing Huang Yi and others arrive, he imdiately pointed toward the distant horizon and said, "Brother Yi, in the plains ahead, countless slaves seem to be building sothing. If we fly further, we might be discovered by them."
Huang Yi and the others imdiately looked up and saw countless weeds waving in the night wind on the vast plains ahead, cloaked in a layer of blood-colored starlight.
At the edge of the horizon, they could vaguely see countless small black dots busy under the blood moon. Upon closer inspection, those small black dots were humanoid figures, presumably the slaves.
At that mont, the group of slaves was constructing a gigantic, unusual building.
The building rose from the flat plains, oval-shaped, like a giant erected egg covered in countless hexagonal openings arranged with extre precision. Each hexagonal opening was several ters in width and height, leading to the interior of the building, possessing a geotric elegance.
Many slaves were busily coming in and out of those hexagonal openings. Around them flew overseer-like figures of various races: Blood Clan, Demon Clan, and Insect Race, patrolling and supervising, ready to punish any lounging slaves.
"They are building a beehive!" Suddenly, the Youth with Middle School Syndro exclaid.
"A beehive?" Young Master Luo will Lead You looked puzzled, "What is that? What’s it for?"
"It’s a specific structure of the Bee Insect Clan." The Youth with Middle School Syndro gazed at the distant building under construction and explained, "The three major royal clans within the Insect Race have different structures: the Ant Tribe has underground anthills, Spiders spin webs, and Bee Insects have beehives. They brew Divine Nectar within the beehives."
Huang Yi looked toward the building, searching carefully and focusing on the overseer-like figures among the Demon Clan and the Bee Insects.
According to the scenes he saw before with the Eye of Ti, the leaders of the Demon Clan and the Bee Insects were Ascension Tier powerhouses. But now, he did not see those two powerhouses.
Huang Yi pondered for a mont, then turned to look at Overlord and said, "Overlord, try sensing the tail sting of that Bee Insect again to see if it’s near that beehive?"
"Okay!" Overlord nodded, took out the tail sting, closed his eyes, and began chanting a strange lody.
When the chant finished, Overlord opened his eyes, shook his head, and said, "The body of that Bee Insect is not near that beehive but in another area at a considerable distance from here."
"It seems the place you’re talking about is likely the main base of the Demon Clan on the Blood Moon Continent!" Huang Yi stroked his chin and speculated, "These Insect Races, after entering The Second World, ca to the Blood Moon Continent and, along with the Demon Clan and Blood Clan, drove those slaves, searching for suitable places to build beehives, eventually choosing this plain. During the construction of the beehive, the leaders of the Bee Insects and the Demon Clan might have returned to the Demon Clan’s main base."
"Should we investigate the Demon Clan’s main base?" Qing Ming suggested, turning to look at He Tu and smiled, "He Tu and I can combine and transform into any race we’ve seen, making us perfect for infiltrating to gather information."
"Let’s observe for a while before making any moves!" Huang Yi shook his head, "We are now too few in number and shouldn’t act rashly; otherwise, if discovered by the Demon Clan and Insect Race, it will lead to certain death. The two leaders of the Demon Clan and Insect Race are Ascension Tier powerhouses, much stronger than us, and even have so top-level Heavenly Domain subordinates, entirely beyond the capability of our small team of six. Since this beehive is a crucial structure, let’s stay nearby and wait for the hive to be completed. Then the leaders of the Demon Clan and Insect Race should reappear here."
Huang Yi spoke and glanced at other directions on the plains, his eyes sweeping over the endless weeds, murmuring, "Now that we know the construction sites of the Demon Clan’s main base and the beehive, there’s one uncertain factor remaining—those suspected Nagas. They might be hiding in this plain like us, lurking behind so grass clump watching the hive construction. We must find them and monitor them lest they affect our plans."
Upon finishing, Huang Yi’s gaze swept across the group, assigning tasks: "Qing Ming, He Tu, you two combine and transform into the form of a Demon Clan mber, search to the east of the beehive; Young Master Luo will Lead You, use your Blood Clan form and search the south of the hive; Youth with Middle School Syndro, take on your Insect Race form and search the west of the hive. I can turn into the form of a Demon Clan mber, so I’ll search the north of the hive. This way, even if discovered, we won’t expose our true identities. As for Overlord, stay here and monitor the hive, and anyone who finds anything will inform each other imdiately."
