Kle In was meditating when he felt a powerful aura approaching swiftly towards his location. Having killed Nascent Soul experts, he could already deduce the ripples generated by the incoming figure are signatures of what this world considers apex of cultivation and is probably here because of Hur Mab.

He stored the Spiritual Vein Model into one of his spatial rings for safe keeping in case something unexpected happens.

After a few seconds, an old man with disheveled hair wearing a white luxurious robe appeared and before he descended, he spread his suffocating and murderous aura to pressure Kle In. The old man walked towards Hur Mab's body. The lifeless body of his only son looked dismembered from the inside and his guards squeezed to pulps. He could not imagine what kind of pain they all went through. It was a plain and one sided massacre that even the protective magic tool he bestowed had no signs of being activated.

"My condolences but you see, they forced my hands."

The old man heard a deep menacing cold voice. No words could describe his rage. He vowed to torture this simian devil and extract his soul. His vengeful wrath burst out and in mere seconds, the atmosphere within the area has been covered with his killing intent.

"You think a transformed devil cannot feel pain? I will skin you alive..."

The old man turned to Kle In but before it could even finish his sentence, tentacles made of Qi Projections ensnared his limbs and body and even his mouth completely suppressing his movements.

Arrkkhh

The old man in reflex summoned a talisman from his ring and was able to break it before his movements were sealed. In a blink of an eye, the situation took a hundred eighty degree turn.

Kle In walked slowly towards the old man. He did not dare be polite. One thing he learned is that talking is unnecessary if megalomaniac cultivators greet him with hostility. He could just kill this old man and toss it somewhere, but seeing this mighty cultivator flew all the way to him to volunteer to become a Spiritual Vein Model, he was and will make sure this old man's effort will not be in vain.

He inserted his Qi into the old man's circulation circuit, however before he could deliver a lethal blow to the head and gain complete control of the old man's dantian, he felt another powerful aura approaching.

Kle In paused and looked towards the sky. After a few seconds, another Nascent Soul Expert appeared mid air and this time, an Elven.

"Is there something I can be of assistance with?"

Kle In sarcastically asked in cold grin. The newly arrived guest descended and clasped his fist and respectfully greeted.

"This esteemed friend, my name is Pe'i and I don't know how this misunderstanding transpired but I am confident our Mountain Alliance can compensate for offending this senior."

Kle In is waiting for signal for this Elven to release his killing intent so he could grab him and turn him into a Spiritual Vein Model as well, however after ten seconds of awkward silence, he paused and turned to Pe'i. Unlike the old man in his mercy, this Elven is not afflicted with I-am-powerful syndrome and landed on the ground and even respectfully kowtowed.

“What do you know about Ul Al'iya clan?

"Beast Transformation being cured is a rumor spread by human race ten thousand years ago during the Unification War. There is a forbidden ritual that uses the essence of a Greater Kay'u Tree to extend one's life however this method was buried along with the Ul Al'iya clan and the Tree is endemic to the west."

Pe'i presupposed his answer on the premise that that it was asked by a Transformed Devil seeking knowledge about an ancient clan believed to cure such illness.

Kle In was amazed by how direct this Elven was and on top of that, civilized and extremely knowledgeable.

"This old man used his aura earlier to suppress my movements and I find the technique fascinating."

"This senior, this technique can only be practiced..."

Arrggh

Pe'i heard a silent groan from the old man and when he looked, two Qi Projection Rods were pierced into the old man's knee caps compelling him to divulge a secret technique. He summoned a crystal ball and with a few hand strokes, he recorded a technique into the ball before tossing it towards Kle In.

"I don't like being followed."

Kle In stored the ball into his spatial ring then activated his wings and levitated. He then retracted his Qi Projections and released the old man in captivity and flew off. He wanted to go on killing spree but the Elven did not exhibiting the same twisted modus operandi of every Nascent Soul experts he met including the old man. He even provided him valuable knowledge, so he gladly spared them.

Pe'i immediately tended to the old man as soon as Kle In disappeared. Earlier when he received the distress signal, he travelled with his full might and was ready to rescue his comrade but he felt a formidable bone chilling technique upon arrival. On top of that, he was greeted with merciless and murderous tone.

He had experienced the power of Dao Cultivators in the past but the strength of the newly transformed beast before him was completely out of this world.

It was all luck that they were spared. He decided to recall all their forces when they get back to ensure no one will offend such monster. He placed the old man in his flying tool and retrieved all the dead bodies around before departing. He was interested with all the plants that are beaming with Spiritual Qi but he was afraid the monster might return soon and kill them.
