The swift Golden Roc carried the crowd across many forests and barren lands. It rushed straight toward the distant Nine Phantom Mountain Range. On the way, they came across many experts flying through the sky as fast as shooting stars. Some of them were in groups while others were alone. They were all rushing toward the Nine Phantom Mountain Range: it seemed like news about the Mother Nest’s trails had already gotten out.

“Lord, I think that it’s best for us to launch a surprise attack and seize the Mother Nest, then leave right away. No one will be able to overtake us thanks to Mertesacker’s high speed,” the Dark Dragon King suggested in a loud voice. He was full of confidence in the Golden Roc’s speed.

“No, we should promptly enter the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension after we grab it. Then, even a strong Core Deity won’t be able to deal with us.” The Blood Angel Ophelia opposed the Dark Dragon King’s suggestion. The Golden Roc was very swift, but running away still wasn’t as safe and secure as entering the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension.

The group discussed this spiritedly. They were facing many difficulties, but they still wanted to capture the rare Mother Nest. The Magical Beast Divine Branch was already developing rapidly. If they could subdue the Mother Nest, which could produce several Wandering Divine Beasts, then the Magical Beast Army’s power would rise yet another level. Then, they would really have enough power to contend against apex factions.

“Lord, the Nine Phantom Mountain Range is ahead of us. Take a look: various great factions’ elites are assembled on the ground. If I’m right, the Mother Nest is hiding somewhere nearby.” The Golden Roc flapped its wings. As it spoke, it passed through a mass of black clouds.

Yang Ling looked at the boundless forest and the large groups of experts before he issued orders in a deep voice. “Fine, Mertesacker. Look for a remote corner, and let’s land.”

The shot would always hit the bird that poked its head out. The City Amongst the Clouds, the Power King, and other great factions were determined to get the Mother Nest. It would be very stupid to attack impulsively without understanding the real situation, and they might suffer assassination attempts or surprise attacks. However, if they hid their power and their tracks, and kept all their operations on the sly, then they might have a chance of success.

The Nine Phantom Mountain Range was situated in the western region of the Far West Land. It had high peaks and a boundless primitive forest that stretched for a billion miles. No one knew how large this mountain range was. It had steep cliffs, hidden underground caves, caverns of unfathomable depths, and many other types of complex terrain. Everybody knew that the Mother Nest was hiding in this region, but neither the City Amongst the Clouds with its a large number of people nor lone hidden practitioners could come up with a way to accurately pinpoint the Mother Nest’s hiding spot. Instead, many people were killed by the Mother Nest’s surprise attacks. Yang Ling’s team came across several mangled corpses after walking only a short distance.

“Their chests were torn open, and their internal organs were shredded. It seemed like the Mother Nest’s carrier, the Mother Empress, has gotten larger, and her offensive power has gotten stronger.” An expert crouched on the ground and carefully observed the injuries of one of the bodies. His expression turned more grave.

It could be said that the Mother Nest was the most mysterious organism in the innumerable Dimensions. If it stayed in one place, it would be able to turn into a large nest that would quickly expand along the mountain range and absorb a large amount of energy from the vicinity. But once it started moving, it would turn into a Mother Empress, a being with a snake’s body and an eagle’s wings that was able to travel at a high speed. It was said that once the Mother Nest advanced to a high level, it wouldn’t just be able to produce natural Wandering Divine Beasts–the power of its incarnation, the Mother Empress, would also reach an astounding level. It would be able to kill an ordinary Dimensional Wanderer instantly with its claws.

The Mother Nest they were hunting was still in its most primal form, and it hadn’t yet grasped all kinds of terrifying innate magical abilities. Despite this, the fighting prowess of its incarnation, the Mother Empress, was no small thing, and it got stronger with every passing day. This was why the crowd was very worried.

“That’s right, look at this. This corpse was torn into shreds, and so was its Godhead. The Mother Empress’s claws really are so terrifying.”

“Huh? A blood-red sickle. Isn’t this the Slavic Divine Branch’s Jermaine? Several million years ago, he’d already practiced to the peak of the Eighth Level Divine Duty Stage, and now, he was traveling with a large group of the Slavic Divine Branch’s elites. How is it possible for him to die here?” An experienced wanderer quickly recognized the dead man and was astounded.

The Corpse Wizard King, the Golden Roc, and the others led by Yang Ling disguised themselves as a group of ordinary wanderers, observing everything calmly. Soon, they had learned a lot about what was happening from the numerous wanderers.

The mysterious Mother Nest was still in its nascent stage, but its fighting prowess was already higher than ordinary wanderers. It had at least a Dimensional Wanderer’s power. There was still a little disparity between it and the City Amongst the Clouds’ Lord, the Algernon Core Deity, the Power King, and other real peerless powerhouses. Still, its power was more than enough to deal with a Divine Duty Expert, as it could instantly kill even a Divine Duty Expert at the peak of the Eighth Level.

It was still in its nascent stage, yet it already possessed a Wandering Divine Beast’s power, and it could instantly kill an apex Eighth Level Divine Duty Expert?

After Yang Ling got over his shock, he nodded with satisfaction. He became more interested in the Mother Nest. If he could capture the Mother Nest and tame it with his blood, he would obviously increase the Magical Beast Army’s power and growth potential greatly. This would be better than taming a single Wandering Divine Beast.

Give a man a fish, he eats for a day; teach a man to fish, he eats for a lifetime!

Taming the Mother Nest, which could produce Wandering Divine Beasts, wasn’t any different than taming a group of Wandering Divine Beasts. As long as he put enough time in, he would probably be able to form a battle team of Wandering Divine Beasts, or even a Wandering Corps of Wandering Divine Beasts.

After Yang Ling got the lay of the land, he followed the various factions with the Corpse Wizard King and the others. They worked alongside them and calmly made more inquiries to get a further understanding of the situation. They waited patiently for a good opportunity to attack. The sharp Battle Soul Blade, the mysterious and powerful Wizard Spells, the swift Golden Roc, as well as the mysterious Wizard Pagoda’s dimension: these were what they depended upon the most, and these were the source of their confidence.

The Nine Phantom Mountain Range stretched for billions of miles, and the mountain range’s surroundings were the very symbol of vastness. Even though they knew that the Mother Nest was hiding in the mountain range’s surroundings, the Power King Branch’s Titans couldn’t find its specific location, nor could the other factions. The Mother Egg could only detect the Mother Nest’s approximate location; it couldn’t pinpoint its specific hiding spot.

Yang Ling’s team toured the Nine Phantom Mountain Range’s surroundings for several days. They couldn’t find the Mother Nest’s specific location, nor could they find the legendary Skyreach Tower. They did, however, discover something very useful: many factions were already drawing weapons. This was probably because they had to fight over the Mother Nest, and it was also probably because they had blood feuds. In any case, they all wanted to hack each other into pieces. Still, they were all reluctantly held back by their commanders, and they showed restraint.

“Lord, look over there!”

That evening, the group continued looking for the Mother Nest under the hazy moonlight. The Corpse Wizard King was walking in the front and looking everywhere when he inadvertently discovered a dozen corpses lying among shrubs in a forest of pine trees. There were Twelve-Winged Angels, Titans a dozen meters tall, and some unknown wanderers. They were all torn into shreds, and distinct claw marks could be seen on the hard bluestone. It seemed that those pitiful people had suffered the Mother Empress’s surprise attack.

“Lord, if I’m not wrong, those should be various great factions’ scouts. They must have discovered the Mother Empress in this forest of pine trees. Unfortunately, they must have been murdered by it before they could sound the alarm.” The old Dragon Turtle, Kaleisa, was very experienced. After he carefully examined the wounds of the numerous corpses and the marks at the scene, he quickly came up with a conclusion.

“Lord, the bloodstain on the ground hasn’t dried yet. So why don’t we follow the marks left behind by the Mother Empress and chase it down?” The Golden Roc twitched its nose. It sharply sniffed a peculiar odor in the air. This faint smell was bitter; it had to be an odor left behind by the Mother Empress. Unfortunately, the Mother Empress had a natural gift when it came to hiding Energy Ripples. The Golden Roc spread its Divine Consciousness with its whole power, but it still couldn’t find the Mother Empress’s exact location.

“Capturing the Mother Nest, which has turned into the Mother Empress, is very important. But first, we must handle a more important matter.” As Yang Ling observed the corpses on the ground, he had an idea. He sneered coldly. He said, “Now, there is a clash between various factions, and it’s only getting more intense. If we fan the flames further, the whole forest would probably burn.”

“Lord, are you implying that you will launch a surprise attack on great factions’ scouts and elites? Will you come up with a way to incite them to kill great numbers of their foes?” The Corpse Wizard King had a keen response. Concocting plots was second-nature to him, and he quickly understood Yang Ling’s intentions before the latter could state them.

“Assassinations and sneak attacks are just one tool. Sometimes, spreading rumors will give rise to an even greater commotion.” Yang Ling chuckled and paused for a moment before saying, “If the various great factions don’t have a falling-out, we won’t get a chance to seize the Mother Nest. As long as the factions’ elites are still here, even if we find the Mother Nest and come up with a way to capture it, we still probably won’t be able to get away.”

“Hehe! Lord, I’ve got it; you can set your mind at ease.” The Corpse Wizard King chuckled and rolled his eyes. He came up with several malicious ideas. After discussing these ideas for a while, they separated and took two different paths. The Corpse Wizard King was in charge of spreading rumors everywhere while Yang Ling was in charge of commanding the old Dragon Turtle, Kaleisa, the Golden Roc, and the others. He was in charge of mounting sneak attacks on various great factions’ elites.

It was said that the City Amongst the Clouds’ Lord, the Algernon Divine Branch’s Core Deity, and other real powerhouses had already sneaked into the Nine Phantom Mountain Range to seize the Mother Nest. Normally, it would be nearly impossible for a group with the Magical Beast Divine Branch’s current power to seize the Mother Nest in front of everybody and get away with it. But if the factions descended into chaos, they might have a chance.

If they couldn’t find an opportunity, they would just have to come up with a way to create an opportunity. Yang Ling was always fond of taking the initiative.
