Chapter 2322  A Second Offering Hall

Crown Princess Shang's suggestion was definitely interesting but there were other's who hadn't spoken yet.

"You might change your thoughts after hearing our observations." Lady Kang interjected.

"What did you find?" Lin Mu asked, remembering that Lady Kang had asked him to wait until everyone was here.

"We found another Offering Hall along with a new Chimeric Beast." Lady Kang revealed.

"What?" Everyone was surprised now.

"Could that be the offering hall that was used by the unknown party?" Qiao De couldn't help but question.

"It might be possible." Lady Kang nodded. "But we didn't go inside." She added.

"You didn't? Why?" Crown Princess Shang questioned.

"Was there a barrier of Baleful energies like the first offering hall?" Monk Hushu asked.

"No. The Offering Hall was actually open." Lady Kang replied. "But there was another obstacle in our way… a new Chimeric Beast." She revealed.

That was a surprising revelation for the group. After all, they had not seen any Chimeric Beasts act in any way towards the Offering Hall. Even if there were Chimeric beasts near the Offering hall, they never actually came close or took any interest in the building.

"Huh?" the group didn't expect that to be the reason.

"What kind of Chimeric Beast is it?" Lin Mu asked. "And what was its cultivation base?" he thought that since they found it an obstacle, the Chimeric Beast was certainly not weak.

"It was certainly at the Seventh Tribulation Stage of the Immortal realm from the energy fluctuations it was exuding. Though it's form was rather peculiar… it was bipedal." Lady Kang answered.

"Bipedal…" Crown Prince Feng Shun had a bad feeling about it.

"Let me show you." Lady Kang said as he drew up the image of the Chimeric beast on the formation screen. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

~SHUA~

Everyone looked at it finding the Chimeric Beast to be very imposing.

Like Lady Kang had said, it was bipedal and stood as tall as twenty meters. But it did not seem to be the mix of any common bipedal beasts that one might think of such as Apes and monkeys. Instead, it looked like an entirely new beast.

It had two muscular legs that had three big toes each and similarly thick arms. Though it had four fingers on each hand and they were covered with a thick layer of fur. Its torso was broad, but its belly was very fat and bulged out like a balloon.

Unlike its arms, the rest of its body was hairless and with wrinkles. Its head was squarish but only had a single large eyeball with no nose under it. Its mouth was also strange, being under its chin, instead of being on the front. And when the mouth opened, a long and fleshy tube of some kind extended. This tube was covered in sharp fangs and dripped with noxious saliva. On the strange Chimeric Beast's back were small deformed wings that were tipped with a hooked claws. Waves of Chimeric Qi swirled around it while it sat on the ground, leaned against the Offering Hall.

"What is that thing?" Crown Princess Shang was taken aback.

While it wasn't as disgusting as the other Chimeric Beasts she had seen, it certainly had an ugly and off-putting appearance.

"It doesn't seem to have any characteristic from beasts I can identify." Daoist Chu said, observing it closely.

"A Cyclops perhaps?" Ziran thought after seeing its single eye.

"It's head is too squarish for that." Elder Hu replied. "Also that mouth and that flesh tube… that's definitely something from an insect beast." He added.

"Actually… that seems to be something from a Sea Cucumber." Lin Mu replied. "I've read about some Sea Cucumber beasts that have such mouths that they can extend out and consume their prey. Though rather than mouth, you can think of it as their entire guts that they expel outside." He explained.

"Huh… How peculiar…" Ziran furrowed his brows. "Those arms are probably from a gorilla beast of some kind, no?" Qiao De chimed in. "Except for the fingers."

"It does seem like it." Lady Kang nodded. "Those legs… A Tapir Beast, perhaps?" Lin Mu said after comparing them with all the beasts he could think of. "They have three toes like that too." He pointed.

"How about the wings?" Daoist Chu asked. "Do you think they're naturally deformed or they suffered some damage?" "There are far too many combinations that could yield wings like those. But they are probably natural. There isn't much that could damage a Seventh Tribulation Stage immortal realm Chimeric beast here after all. It should be the peak of strength in this plane." Lin Mu answered.

"Great, so a mix of a Cyclops, Sea Cucumber, Tapir, Gorilla and who knows what other beasts. Anyone got a guess of what kind of abilities it can have?" Qiao De inquired, feeling uneasy about it.

They had been discussing the characteristics of the Chimeric Beast in the hopes that they might be able to figure out its abilities. After all, Lady Kang and Min Ju hadn't fought it nor had stayed long enough for it to do anything, thus they were only going off the appearances.

"It's definitely got a lot of physical strength. Speed probably not… toughness for sure." Crown Prince Feng Shun assessed. "A limited scope of vision as well." Ziran reminded. "Unlike the other Chimeric Beasts we've encountered, this one has the least number of eyes… they tend to be generous with them, usually." He explained.

"True… that might come in handy." Monk Hushu could think of a few ways to outmaneuver the Chimeric Beast.

The group discussed a bit more before deciding that they would go to the east to deal with the Chimeric Beast.

"Considering the fact that it is staying next to the Offering hall and not going elsewhere, it is certainly guarding it. We might find something in there that isn't in other Offering Halls." Crown Prince Feng Shun started speaking. "It might do us good to get rid of it first, since we might be able to take advantage of its characteristics. Especially if we fight together." He stated.
