Chapter 4072 Deduction


    King Ieuan, Eastern Emperor Taiyi and the others remained on the alert. They thought even the weaker


    Treacherous Beings couldn''t be taken lightly.


    The Glede Demons, however, were used to them.


    Even Campbell, an awakened Treacherous Being, couldn''t resist the temptation of the Arcana. How


    much more these unintelligent, friendly ones?


    More and more Treacherous Beings of grotesque shapes gathered around the group, almost


    completely blocking their way.


    "Drive them away," Bhus ordered.


    The Glede Demons swung their des and cut through the Treacherous Beings easily. The weaker


    ones were sliced into pieces. The friendly-type ones dodged and scampered in various directions.


    Although they couldn''t die, the creatures still instinctively evaded danger.


    After clearing the way, the group continued onward.


    The Ghost Mountain was already massive from the outside, almost asrge as half of the Night View


    Ind. Its inner space was even more spacious.


    Up ahead, a row of square prison cells came into view. Beside the cells were stone tablets engraved


    with figures of different creatures.


    "What are those creatures?" the Snake Goddess asked.

    "They are also Treacherous Beings," Bhus exined. "But unlike those outside, the Treacherous


    Beings here can be fused. You can enter the cells after imprinting the zed sheets on the stone


    tablets."


    Decker at the end of the line piped up, "The thorny Treacherous Beings our Wooden Leaf race have


    fused with are over there."


    He pointed to a cell not far away. There was a pattern of Treacherous Being with poisonous spines on


    the stone tablet beside the cell.


    "Only the weakest hostility-level Treacherous Beings are kept here," a Glede Demon pointed out


    disdainfully.


    Of course the Wooden Leaf race would choose such low-level Treacherous Beings. The Glede


    Demons scoffed at such weaklings.


    The gap in strength between the Treacherous Beings they preferred were quiterge. Some top


    hostility-level Treacherous Beings were as strong as the resentment-level ones.


    Among these were the Wolf Owls that the Glede Demons fused with. They were the strongest among


    the hostility-level Treacherous Beings.


    "Now we go to the far right," Bhus pointed out.


    Everyone followed behind Bhus and entered the rightmost passageway.


    After they entered, another row of square prison cells came into view. Hostility-level Treacherous


    Beings were kept in these cells as well.


    "Now we go to the passageway at the far left," said Bhus.


    Theyout of the Ghost Mountain was obviously carefully designed. Treacherous Beings were kept in


    rows upon rows of cells, and the passageway leading to the depths of the Ghost Mountain zigzagged


    from left to right.


    Knowing the Element Spirit Civilization led by the Eye Spirit was very likely to chase after them, the


    group sped along the zigzag passageway.


    "There are about a hundred prison cells in each row, where about a hundred kinds of hostility-level


    Treacherous Beings are kept. We have passed seven rows along the way, so seven hundred kinds of


    Treacherous Beings, too." Surprise was written all over Eastern Emperor Taiyi''s face.


    He never imagined there were so many kinds of Treacherous Beings in the Ghost Mountain.


    Bhus smiled. "There are a total of six hundred rows. At the three hundredth row, there are two


    bypasses, which lead to the left and right regions of the Ghost Mountain."


    "So there are tens of thousands of different kinds of Treacherous Beings in the Ghost Mountain?" Fuxi


    asked in surprise.


    "We''ve calcted that there are one hundred and ten thousand kinds of hostility-level Treacherous


    Beings on this floor alone," answered Bhus.


    Everyone was stunned at the number.


    King Ieuan turned its head and nced at Decker. There were so many kinds of Treacherous Beings,


    yet the Wooden Leaf race only chose those on the first row. How pathetic!


    Noticing the gaze of King Ieuan, Decker could only smile helplessly. Given theck of strength of the


    Wooden Leaf race, they could only choose the weakest Treacherous Beings.


    "Why are there so many?" the Snake Goddess asked, genuinely puzzled.


    The creatures in the chaos could not be Treacherous Beings, after all. All the Treacherous Beings


    came from outside the chaos.


    So how could there be so many of them in the Ghost Mountain?


    "Someone must have captured about one hundred thousand kinds of creatures in the Abstruse Energy


    World and ced them here," Fuxi deduced.


    "And they were all killed and transformed into Treacherous Beings..." Zen trailed off. He also didn''t


    know the reason.


    Why, indeed?


    To facilitate the fusion of creatures on the Night View Ind with Treacherous Beings?


    It didn''t make any sense.


    "Perhaps the creatures captured from the Abstruse Energy World weren''t originally meant to be


    Treacherous Beings," the Snake Goddess mused aloud.


    "So what happened?"


    Bhus asked.


    Even those from the Night View Ind didn''t know much about the Ghost Mountain.


    Over the years, they had just taken it for granted, not thinking deeply about how it came into being.


    "Perhaps there was an extinction-triggering cmity in the Abstruse Energy World, and some people


    hid in the chaos to avoid it. At the same time, they brought the creatures from the Abstruse Energy


    World and built this mountain to hold them. Perhaps an ident caused all the creatures to die, so the


    Ghost Mountain became what it is today," the Snake Goddess said.


    "It''s possible," Eastern Emperor Taiyi said, nodding.


    Zen agreed. "That theory is probably close to the truth," he said.


    It was very likely that there were no original intentions to turn creatures into Treacherous Beings. After


    all, they were all living creatures before they were brought here.


    It took the group more than six hours to reach thest row at the bottom of the Ghost Mountain.


    Although they moved fast, the zigzag passageway impeded their speed, somewhat.


    There were also one hundred prison cells in thisst row. Zen finally spotted the tortoises the Red


    Demon race had fused with and the Wolf Owls the Glede Demon race had fused with.


    At the end of the row of cells, there was a stairway paved with ck stones.


    The steps were several thousand feet high, leading up to the second floor of the Ghost Mountain.


    When they reached the second floor, more prison cells came into view.


    However, these cells wererger.


    The prison bars were quite thick, and through them, they could see the huge resentment-level


    Treacherous Beings.


    There was a giant elephant in the nearest cell.


    Its attention was drawn by the arrival of Zen and his group.


    Its long trunk stretched out from the space between the bars and slowly swept toward them. It looked


    friendly and kind.


    Friendly-type Treacherous Beings were not known to be aggressive, so Fuxi reached out his hand to


    touch the elephant''s trunk.


    But just as he did, the elephant suddenly emitted a disgusting aura!


    The auras released by friendly-type Treacherous Beings were not strong, and could even be negligible.


    But the killing-type and attaching-type Treacherous Beings emanated extremely disgusting auras.


    Fuxi reacted quickly. As soon as he felt the aura, he immediately jumped tens of feet back. Zen and the


    others likewise quickly distanced themselves from the cell where the giant elephant was imprisoned.


    The elephant continued to try to reach Fuxi with its trunk.


    But it was a moment toote. It failed to grab him.


    HOWL!


    The enraged elephant roared in its cell.


    "Didn''t you say the Treacherous Beings in the Ghost Mountain were all friendly-type?" Pearson asked


    gravely.
