CHAPTER 1144 THE FIRST SIGHT OF THE PRIMITIVE WILDERNESS

As Darren and the others rose, immersed in the golden light, everything on the Lothlann Continent was

gradually growing farther and farther away from them.

After a while, they looked down and found that the world under their feet was as bright as the galaxy

until they couldn't see the Lothlann Continent anymore. It seemed to have become a tiny speck among

hundreds of millions of grains of sand.

As they slowly rose further, Darren and the others could no longer see anything except the bright

golden light.

"Close your eyes."

A voice warned Darren and the others.

Even without the warning, Darren and the others didn't dare open their eyes again. The golden light

shined so brightly that they knew they'd go blind if they tried.

After a long time, Darren felt his body become heavier. Then they began to fall.

The feeling of the wind on all their faces rustled some of them to open their eyes.

Darren opened his eyes first. What he saw was a desolate and ancient world.

It was cold and misty. There was a bountiful primeval forest beneath a cliff. In the distance, the roars of

fierce beasts echoed every now and then.

"This is the Primitive Wilderness."

Darren had mixed feelings when he saw this ancient world.

"Welcome to the Primitive Wildness."

As soon as Darren and his companions descended, an old man with waist length white hair appeared

beside them.

"Nice to meet you, sir."

Darren sensed him for a moment and found the seemingly ordinary looking old man had a profound

aura that he couldn't quite figure out.

"Politeness is not necessary in the Primitive Wilderness. In this world, the law of the jungle rules all.

This is my first lesson for you,"

the old man said coldly. His expression was devoid of emotion. holds text © rights.

"Now, I have something to tell you. Listen carefully."

The old man paused for a moment and then continued, "There are many races born in the Primitive

Wilderness. They are all very powerful. At the bottom of this food chain however, is the human race.

Therefore, we have to make every means to find geniuses to enhance the strength of the population of

the human race, so as to get rid of our predicament of being enslaved by those stronger than us."

Hearing this, Darren was confused.

"Get rid of the predicament of being enslaved? So, you're saying the human race is actually enslaved?"

Darren's heart sank with despair.

"Do not speak unless I ask you a question." The old man shot a cold look at Darren, and avoided

answering his question.

"Tell me, when you were in the mortal world, did any force of the Primitive Wilderness come to rope you

in?" the old man asked with a serious face.

Darren hesitated for a while and answered, "No."

"Tell me the truth." This time, the old man's voice seemed to be filled with a threatening god's power as

he prodded Darren.

"No." Lord Starry Sword had told Darren that they weren't allowed to go to the mortal worlds to recruit

talents. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Darren said no.

"That's good." The old man nodded slowly and continued, "Follow me to the Ancestral Land, where you

will be given ten years to cultivate. Then, all forces will come to choose disciples. Take advantage of

this opportunity."

"Wait!" Scott took two steps forward and asked, "Can we choose not to go with you and cultivate by

ourselves?"

"Are you sure you'd want to do that?" The old man turned around and looked at Scott with an intense

gaze.

Scott was speechless.

"Are you sure you want to give up ten vital years of protection and cultivation period? If you insist, I can

agree." The old man was still massively indifferent. He continued, "However, once you give up, you will

no longer belong to our race. To be exact, you will no longer be a member of human race."

"What?" Finley gave a nervous gulp as he choked back his words.

The Water Kylin couldn't help jumping out and yelled, "Old man, you are way too arrogant! We don't

need your stupid protection. You can fuck off!"

"You don't belong to the human race, so you shouldn't even be here. Calm yourself. I need this

Reincarnation Master to make a choice." The old man paid no attention to the Water Kylin's tantrum.

"Damn it! I really don't like you. You're such a prick. You can't blame me for bullying you!"

The Water Kylin jumped and swiped at the old man with his claws.

Bang!

Before his claws could even reach the old man, the Water Kylin fell to the ground. His body felt like it

was tens of thousands of kilograms heavy. He lay on the ground and didn't have the strength to even

raise his head.

The Water Kylin was terrified. 'This ordinary looking old man is super powerful, ' he thought.

"Little legendary beast, don't be so pompous. I'm the middle-level law god. How dare you bare your

claws at me? One more strike from you and you're dead," the old man warned sternly.

"Water Kyliln! Behave yourself!" Darren hissed. "We choose to go with you."

Darren made up his mind.

"It's very wise of you. If you left the human race, you wouldn't have survived for more than two hours

out here. Come with me. Don't look around when you are on the way, and don't provoke anything you

see."

As he spoke, the old man flew down the cliff toward the lush forest.

Following Darren's suit, everyone else began to follow the old man as well.

The rotten smell of dead trees pervaded in the humid forest and the wind that blew occasionally was

mixed with the rotten smell of corpses.

They advanced along a path with fallen leaves. The old man covered five kilometers with a single step.

Darren and the others followed him.

"Howl!"

Darren and the others could see many powerful beasts along the way. Their roars were frightening.

"Are they Shuras?"

As they walked forward for a while, Darren suddenly saw two blood-red figures holding spears in their

hands. They looked exactly like the Shura Darren knew.

The two Shuras were attacking a huge beast. They roared so loudly that the earth and sky seemed to

tremble.

"Don't watch. Keep walking."

After walking for a long time, they traveled about several thousand kilometers. On the way, they saw

many bloody scenes and many powerful and unknown races.

A faint light shone from the distance. Darren squinted to get a look, and saw a vague shape of what

looked like a palace.

"Are we almost there?"

"Yes," the old man replied.

Darren unconsciously turned his head to look around again, and saw another bloody scene. This time,

it was different. The actors of the bloody scene were not beasts, but humans.

"Howl!"

Several black creatures were mauling two humans.

Darren sensed that the two humans were about as strong as the old man.

After a short clash, one of the humans was torn into pieces, and the black creatures chowed down at

his corpse, enjoying their food.

Another human, standing in the center, looked upon his companion's death with painful anguish.

"Get to safety!"

Darren shouted, ready to fly over to save that human.

"Stop!"

Unexpectedly, the old man let out an earth-shaking roar.

"Why? I don't understand. We just watched a human being die, and we can't save the other one?" For

the first time since they arrived, anger and rage coursed through Darren.

"Save him? The Primitive Wilderness is cruel. This is survival of the fittest. What reason do we have to

save him? They have cultivated for ten years, but they are just at the middle-level of the Primary God

Realm. Their incompetence makes it clear that they don't deserve to live."

These two humans were human geniuses that had just come out of the Ancestral Land.

Darren gritted his teeth and let out a hiss of frustration. While they were speaking, the other human had

been completely devoured by the black creatures.

"Howl!"

As if not satisfied by their recent meals, the black creatures looked at Darren and the others with blood

lust.

"Let's go." The old man gestured for Darren to push forward.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Suddenly, several fierce figures rushed over.
