It had been nearly two months since Ralph split up from hisrades.


    Ralph''s Ancestral Tiger Group was moving through the extremely dangerous forests that had be the boundaries between nations.


    As of this moment, Ralph''s Ancestral Tiger Gang had already passed the Sinyalian Kingdom''s old territory and was going through the Principality of Aseca.


    Ralph''s destination was the Beast Empire. But this Empire had another name on the human maps. It was known as the Woltensian Empire.


    The Woltensian Empire was the Holy Land for the Beasts on Frascoia Continent. Not even the supreme experts of the Great Qin Empire could dare to venture into thisnd.


    Thisnd was guarded by the legacies of the four cardinal beasts: Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, and the ck Tortoise.


    The presence of their aura greatly affected thews in this region. It was said that these four divine beasts sacrificed their lives to safeguard this region for the entire beast race.


    This urred during the Ancient Era when the human race gave birth to their first 9 Star Warrior, Qin Feng.


    Nearly all the locations crowded with beasts were slowly being cleared. The beasts were extremely worried about their survival and their future generations.


    Thus, the four cardinal beasts took action. They sacrificed their bodies for the entire Beast Race and safeguarded this region. Their Divine Power flooded the region and separated the Laws inside it from the Laws of the Frascoia Continent.


    The power of all warriors except that of beasts would be suppressed by a single rank. In other words, a Transcendent Saint would be suppressed to the Saint Rank. And the Saint Rank would be suppressed to the Emperor Rank.


    The beasts constructed a huge empire in this region, and the humans named it Woltensian Empire.


    The beasts were extremely grateful to cardinal beasts for sacrificing their bodies and assisting the entire Beast Race. Thus, the beasts would regrly uphold blood sacrificial ceremonies to pay their utmost respects to the four cardinal beasts.


    Four special tombs were constructed inside the Woltensian Empire at different locations. One for each cardinal beast.


    Legend said that each of these tombs possessed the Spirit of the Cardinal Beasts from the Ancient Era.


    The uracy of these legends had yet to be determined, but many beasts would regrly visit these tombs and conduct blood ceremonies in an attempt to please the respective cardinal beast.


    They believed that their lives would go extremely smoothly if a cardinal beast''s spirit would take not of them.


    The sacrifice of the cardinal beasts was considered extremely sacred. They had not only protected the rare species of the Beast Race but also gave a ce where the beasts could grow quickly. This was an extraordinary blessing since a beast would normally require hundreds or thousands of years to be an adult.


    Another reason that the Woltensian Empire was the Holy Land of the Beasts was that it contained nearly all the Ancient Legacies of the Beasts.


    It was said that if a Beast wanted to go past their potential, they had to mutate or visit the Woltensian Empire.


    There were so many Ancient Bloodline Legacies of the Beasts that numerous ns existed in the Woltensian Empire.


    Initially, a dozen of these Beast ns had Beast Gods as their leaders. However, those ns fought for some reason, and the number of Beast Gods dropped to three.


    The three that survived were the strongest of those Beast Gods. These three became the true rulers of the beasts.


    The Chaos Dragon.


    Heavenly Devouring Sparrow.


    Adamantine Shelled Tortoise.


    The Chaos Dragon possessed the strongest Ardor out of the three Beast Gods. The Heavenly Devouring Sparrow was the fastest in the air, while the Adamantine Shelled Tortoise possessed the strongest defense in the world.


    Each of these Beast Gods possessed a trace of the Cardinal Beasts'' Bloodlines. The Chaos Dragon possessed a trace of the Azure Dragon''s bloodline. However, the potential of the Chaos Dragon was considered even above the Azure Dragon.


    The Heavenly Devouring Sparrow possessed the bloodline of the Vermillion Bird, but its potential surpassed the Vermillion Bird.


    The Adamantine Shelled Tortoise shared a simr rtionship with the ck Tortoise.


    In fact, these three Beast Gods had already reached the cultivation level of the Cardinal Beasts. However, even then, none of them dared to be disrespectful towards the Cardinal Beasts.


    This was very extraordinary since the beast race acted ording to their instincts. The beasts typically respected those with either superior bloodline or power.


    This implied that the respect for the Cardinal Beasts had been deeply imprinted into their soul and bloodlines!


    Even Ralph, who had only inherited a Cougar King''s Bloodline and a drop of the Ancient Tiger, was branded with this stigma.


    As Ralph was traveling across the nations with his group, he decided to get some information from nearby cities. From those cities, he found out how difficult it was for humans to enter the Woltensian Empire.


    It meant he had to leave behind the Ancestral Tiger Gang and enter the Woltensian Empire with a small group of Demi-Beasts.


    Apparently, the Woltensian Empire epted the Demi-Beasts without much issue.


    Ralph decided to gather more information regarding the Woltensian Empire, but there was nothing he could find in the human cities.


    It was only natural that the humans wouldn''t have deep information regarding the Beast Empire.


    However, this did not imply that no one had the answers to Ralph''s queries. The beasts did.


    And the one to question them was none other than Zena.


    While Ralph was questioning humans, Zena questioned the beasts in the nearby area. The results were very optimistic as most of the beasts in the area had visited the Woltensian Empire once.


    They had sufficient information to answer Ralph''s questions.


    Through these beasts, Ralph discovered that there were multiple ns such as the Lion n, Tiger n, Dragon n, Phoenix n, Tortoise n, Hawk n, and many other ns in the Woltensian Empire.


    The Lion n, Tiger n, Dragon n, Phoenix n, Hawk n, and some other ns resided on the mountain peaks. The legacies of the respective n were on that mountain peak.


    Over each Mountain Peak were several other beast ns that had submitted to that great n. Each of these beast ns was assigned a specific region on a mountain peak.


    If they wanted to increase their territory, they had to fight other ns. Thus, battles between beast ns for territory or just to show their superiority were very normal.


    Meanwhile, the Sea Monsters like the Tortoise n resided in the ocean, and it was unclear how they lived.


    Ralph was satisfied with this information. He did wonder whether he could join the Tiger n after entering the Woltensian Empire.
