Omega Summoner

The Den of Beasts live up to its name as the trio already encountered numerous beasts that are not found in the main world. They do not know how to fight these minsters, but they decided to avoid them rather than fight because the lowest level is level 280.

They might be able to fight against monsters of that level but that would take up their valuable time. Peridot enveloped them in mist to obscure their figure not only from monsters but also from the other people inside the forbidden zone.

Peridot has heard of stories of other people killing one another just because they covet the treasure in their hands. This type of behavior is not that different in the eastern continent where it is strength that rules. There are very few rules in the eastern continent, but the four divine beasts make sure to enforce them so that the whole population does not get wiped out.

One of the most prominent rules in the eastern continent is that those that cultivate into Immortals must not touch the ordinary folk. There was a time that an immortal thought that he could reign supreme and decided to slaughter the city official of a small kingdom. The divine beasts became enraged of this and all four personally dispatched that troublesome immortal.

The next prominent rule is that sects must not wage war against one another unless the ordinary citizens living in their areas are all evacuated. If they want to wage war, then a martial arts competition should be held to settle grudges instead of fighting openly. Fights between cultivators often change the landscape of the place which stir the ire of the divine beasts.

In the end, the eastern continent's observed peace is determined by the divine beasts which in turn is given faith by the people. This is the reason why divine beasts shelter the ordinary citizens as their power comes from them.

Even the cultivators know of this which is why some allegedly tried to kill all non-cultivators back then but the whole eastern continent was sieged by never ending tides of calamities. The four divine beasts became enraged of this and showed their divine might to the point that they killed off all the powerful cultivators at that time period.

"In the end, the cultivators needed to abide by these rules which is difficult for their natures. Cultivators abide by the going against the heavens which is why they do not like the divine beasts as much. That is also the reason why you can see less cultivators when in the territory of the four divine beasts." Peridot explained.

"From your definition, we just walked into a kill zone. A place where cultivators can vent their anger." Lycan stated as that is what he got from Peridot's explanation.

"You can think of it as that, but we should be quite safe as long as we do not contend with any treasure. The only thing we need is the information about the Rider of the East or the Horseman of War." Peridot stated as she led the group deeper in the Den of Beasts.

They encountered many creatures that could be said as mythical in a way as they are monsters popular in the east. They mainly saw monsters that weird in a way but very powerful. Even the cute looking winged monster with six legs and no face is a level 290 powerhouse. They cannot be lax in a place like this or else they would perish easily.

They also do not want to die prematurely without getting anything as it would take another month for them to enter which is already stretching it. The rubbles of the ruined clan could be found in the middle area of the Den of Beasts, but it is also a strange place. It is a strange place because both man and beast stay away from it.

The cultivators stay away from it as they believe it is bad luck and that they might bring ruin to their clans. It is also noted that anything of value in that place has already been taken. Even the secret storages are said to have been raided by those that attacked the Demonic Beast Clan.

The beasts stay away from it because it has become a den of one of the fierce beasts in the Den of Beasts called the Taowu. It is avoided by even the beasts of the inner parts of the Den of Beasts because it is one of the four evils that roam around the area.

Inside the Den of Beasts, there are four beasts that should be avoided at all costs as fighting them is a losing battle. They are monsters that do not die even if killed but they will respawn after a set time. The cultivators call them the Four Evils but if players were to call them that would be Field Bosses. The only difference is that they roam the entire Den of Beasts and have no set location.

These four field bosses are called Hundun, Taotie, Qiongqi and Taowu. Each have distinct appearances that are very different from the rest of the monsters in the Den of Beasts. If the monsters in the Den of Beasts have harmony in their body as they are natural beasts, the Four Evils are different as they are beings of malice and chaos.

The Taowu is a giant canine-like beast which once threatened the western areas of China. It has a human face with two boar tusks protruding from its lips. An arrogant and stubborn beast of might, it thrashes wildly through the wilderness and fights any living being it encounters to the death.

What is even more frightening is that fact that these four match your power when you face them. They are field bosses that adjusts their levels depending on the challengers that face them which is why it is pointless to dispose of them with an army. It is also pointless to kill them since they will just respawn.
