Overriding the Heaven

The huge beast was like a rhinoceros. It had a huge body, but it was so dried up that only skin and bones remained. Large areas of its body were covered by snow.    

However, the position of his chest had been cut open by the sharp blade.    

The wound was like an open door.    

Through the wound, the twisted muscles and muscles could be seen.    

These muscles were all purplish black, like withered vines.    

At this moment, it was clear that something had been dug out from the center of the muscles and veins.    

Kong Ci stood in front of the gigantic beast.    

His face was terrifyingly pale and his eyes were filled with despair. His hands that were hanging down were also slightly trembling.    

"Senior-apprentice Brother Kong, what is this?" As a disciple of the Beast King Pavilion, when Cao Feng saw the huge beast, he immediately went over to inspect it closely.    

The more he looked at it, the more surprised he became.    

"This monster seems to have been dead for at least a thousand years. Why is it here? And from the looks of it, this wound seemed to have just been opened recently." Cao Feng said to himself.    

Kong Ci, however, did not answer Cao Feng's question.    

At this moment, his brain rumbled.    

Although Cao Feng's words reached his ears, it did not enter his brain to think.    

As if he was a walking corpse, he turned and looked at Kong Yu, and Kong Ci's eyes immediately turned red.    

Seeing this huge beast's corpse, Kong Yu seemed to have understood something.    

He smiled slightly and said, "Big Brother, you and Father and Mother have already done their best. I won't blame you."    

Kong Ci did not say anything, but his tears continued flowing out.    

A man was trying so hard to hold back his tears in front of everyone.    

But Kong Ci had no way to continue.    

Those who had not experienced it would not be able to understand the pain of having no way to save their loved ones.    

Weakness, pain, heartbreak.    

At this moment, all kinds of emotions were as though a ruthless big hand was ripping Kong Ci's heart into pieces.    

"Senior-apprentice Brother Kong, what's going on?" Seeing that, Lin Miaoran's eyes flashed.    

She had already guessed the possibility from Kong Ci's and Kong Yu's expression and conversation.    

But she needed confirmation.    

"I, I can't save Kong Yu anymore, I, as your big brother, am useless!" With an angry growl, Kong Ci kneeled down on one knee, and smashed a heavy punch into the ground, creating a huge pit.    

Water slowly began to stain the part of the crater that had collapsed.    

Kong Ci's tears fell like rain.    

"I... "So useless …"    

At some point, waves of cold wind were blowing all around them. It was as if someone was crying.    

"This dead beast, can it save Kong Yu's disease?" Lin Miaoran looked at the wound of the gigantic beast and frowned.    

In next to no time, she understood the gist of it.    

"Senior-apprentice Brother Kong, have you been here before?"    

"No, I didn't. My parents came by." Kong Ci did not plan to keep it a secret anymore.    

"At that time, I was still young, and my parents were all disciples of the Mountain Sea Sect. They came to the Frost Tomb together with a group of seniors and juniors, hoping to get some good fortune and prepare for their future promotion.    

At that time, they were still disciples of the Pulse Condensation Stage, and in the end, they encountered the attack of the Rhinoceros in the Heavenly Frost Tomb.    

At that time, my mother was already pregnant and what she carried in her womb was Kong Yu.    

In the end, my mother was hit by the death aura that the Rhinoceros spat out.    

Although she was promptly saved by the sect's elders and my mother quickly recovered, the death aura still affected Kong Yu, who was still a fetus at that time.    

After Kong Yu was born, he had always been sick. Even though his cultivation was not affected, as he grew older, his condition became more and more severe. "    

"If you want to solve this problem, you have to come back and find this Rhinoceros, right?" Li Xiu asked.    

"Yes." Kong Ci nodded.    

"Then why haven't your parents come before?" Cao Feng looked at Kong Yu suspiciously, "Kong Yu, how old are you today?"    

"Fifteen." Kong Yu's state of mind could still be considered stable, as if he had mentally prepared himself for this matter.    

"Haven't you tried it again in fifteen years?" Cao Feng asked.    

"I've tried. Every year, whether it was my parents who came personally, or the other people in the sect that came to invite us, or the bounty missions, we've never given up on a single opportunity."    

Kong Ci's face revealed a painful expression, "But it's just as I said before, every time we come to the Thousand Goblins Tomb, the things that we see are all different.    

So many times in the past, he'd returned empty-handed.    

On one hand, we have to pray that the Rhinoceros will appear when we come here.    

On the one hand, he was praying that when other cultivators came, it wouldn't appear.    

But I definitely did not expect that when this Rhinoceros appeared, someone would actually, unexpectedly beat me to it … "    

Kong Ci clenched his fists so tightly that his teeth chattered.    

Everyone fell silent for a moment.    

They could all feel Kong Ci's pain at this moment.    

Even though Kong Ci's parents were both disciples of the Mountain Sea Sect, their status should not be too high.    

Because of this, the resources they could use were limited.    

But even so, they still did their best to save their son's life.    

From Kong Ci's currently pained expression, everyone could feel that all these years, as the eldest brother, Kong Ci had definitely expended a lot of effort and energy on this matter.    

In this world, the most unacceptable thing was not despair.    

It was to give you hope first, then to make you despair, to let you fall into the abyss.    

And now this happened.    

The Rhinoceros that he had bitterly wished for for for more than a decade had once again appeared.    

However, when they arrived, all they saw was a corpse with its heart dug out.    

"withering frostheart —" Kong Ci said in a low voice, "As long as we can obtain this Rhinoceros, then we can save Kong Yu's life. But now, now —"    

His voice was filled with self-blame.    

Everyone lowered their heads, feeling upset.    

Would it have been different if they had been faster?    

Unfortunately, there were no 'ifs' in this world.    

Kong Yu walked to Kong Ci's side, bent down, and half hugged his big brother's shoulders as he consoled him in a low voice.    

The entire platform once again quieted down.    

Everyone was silent.    

No one wanted such a thing to happen.    

Chu Yan muttered to himself for a moment, then walked to the front of the Rhinoceros's corpse.    

The wound on the corpse's chest was as large as a washbasin. It was completely split open and one could see the muscles and flesh inside it.    

Chu Yan frowned, he extended two fingers and extended them out, slowly stroking along the wound's edge.    

After a moment, Chu Yan seemed to have discovered something.    

However, he did not say anything. He closed his eyes and continued to carefully feel his surroundings.    

After a while, Chu Yan suddenly opened his eyes.    

An excited light flashed in his eyes.
