Chapter 552: Uniting Against a Common Enemy

"Could it be another you?" Xiao Bai exclaimed before Han Li had a chance to reply.

"What did you just say? I think you need to have some sense beaten into you, Xiao Bai!" Jin Tong snapped as she began rolling up her sleeves.

"No, what I meant to say is, could it be another Gold Devouring Immortal?" Xiao Bai hurriedly amended with a fawning smile.

"Why would another Gold Devouring Immortal be coming here? Can you sense how powerful it is?" Han Li asked.

"It seems... to be a little more powerful than I am," Jin Tong replied in a concerned voice.

Han Li's expression remained unchanged, but internally, he was quite stunned to hear this.

At the moment, Jin Tong was already at the late-Golden Immortal Stage, so did that mean that a High Zenith Stage Gold Devouring Immortal was currently approaching them?

Xiao Bai was also very alarmed to hear this, and it urged in a trembling voice, "We have to run, Master!"

As soon as its voice trailed off, the sound of thunderous drumming rang out from outside, and the peaceful valley immediately erupted into action as countless figures rose up into the sky as streaks of light.

Han Li's brows furrowed slightly upon seeing this.

"Stay in the cave abode for now, I'll go out and take a look," he instructed, then made his way out of the cave abode.

At this moment, more and more beings for the Beast Race were flying out of the Dark Star Canyon, and they were all flying outside.

All of a sudden, a streak of light arrived from afar, then landed in front of Han Li's cave abode to reveal Nuo Qinglin.The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))

"How has your stay been so far, Fellow Daoist Li?" Nuo Qinglin asked with a smile.

"It's been fine. Thank you for the hospitality, Chief Nuo. May I ask what's happening right now?" Han Li asked.

"We're being attacked by the Insect Race, but we already anticipated this and have set up defensive measures, so there's nothing to fear," Nuo Qinglin replied in a confident manner.

"That's good to hear. May I ask why you've come to visit me then?" Han Li asked.

"We're going to be using the restrictions within the Dark Star Canyon later to unleash a secret technique, and no one can remain in the canyon during this time, so I'll have to ask you to leave the canyon with me," Nuo Qinglin explained.

"That's not a problem. I'll go pack up my belongings, then come back out to join you," Han Li replied with a nod, then returned to his cave abode, while Nuo Qinglin continued to wait patiently outside.

After entering his cave abode, Han Li's brows furrowed slightly as he made his way into his secret chamber.

"The Insect Race is attacking, and there's a High Zenith Stage Gold Devouring Immortal among them! We need to leave right away, Master!" Xiao Bai immediately yelled in an urgent voice.

"What do you think, Jin Tong?" Han Li asked.

"I'm sure you already know what happens when two Gold Devouring Immortals encounter one another," Jin Tong said, and a hint of resolve and killing intent appeared in her eyes.

Han Li didn't say anything upon seeing this.

Ahead of all of the Beast Race beings was an even larger army of millions of demon beasts.

Somehow, the Beast Race beings had managed to arrange all of the demon beasts into several organized and uniform units that weren't chaotic in the slightest.

Han Li couldn't help but be a little surprised to see this.

"What do you think of our Beast Race army, Fellow Daoist Li?" Nuo Qinglin asked with a hint of pride in his voice.

"It certainly is a sight to behold," Han Li praised.

Nuo Qinglin burst into laughter upon hearing this, then flew up higher into the sky, while Han Li trailed along behind him.

Hovering in front of the war chariots was a black platform that was over 1,000 feet in size and shimmering with spiritual light, clearly indicating that it was a powerful treasure.

At this moment, there were around 30 to 40 Beast Race beings standing on the platform, and it seemed that they were important tribal leaders.

Nuo Qinglin descended onto the platform with Han Li, and their arrival was immediately met with a furious reaction.

"Chief Nuo Qinglin, why have you brought a human primordial hunter here?"

Han Li turned to discover that a dark-skinned man who was built like a massive black bear was the one who had spoken.

The man was at the pinnacle of the early-Golden Immortal Stage, possessing a slightly higher cultivation base than Nuo Qinglin.

Meanwhile, all of the other tribal leaders were also glowering at Han Li with animosity in their eyes.

There were over 10 Golden Immortals among them, but all of them were at the early-Golden Immortal Stage, while most of the remaining tribal leaders were at the late-True Immortal Stage.

"Don't be alarmed, everyone. This is Fellow Daoist Li Feiyu. He may be a human, but he's not a primordial hunter. Instead, he's only trying to pass through the primordial land enroute to another immortal region, and on top of that, he has assisted our Beast Race, specifically the Longneck Tribe in the past, so he's no enemy of ours," Nuo Qinglin hurriedly explained.

Nuo Yifan was also present, and she declared, "On the way back from the Longneck Tribe, we were attacked by the Insect Race, and it was only thanks to Senior Li's intervention that we were able to return safely to the Dark Star Canyon."

Taj was standing near the edge of the platform, but he made his voice loud and clear as he chimed in, "That's right. Fellow Daoist Li will forever be a friend of our Longneck Tribe."

Everyone else's expressions eased slightly upon hearing this, but they still regarded Han Li with clear distrust in their eyes.

"Don't mind them, Fellow Daoist Li. Human primordial hunters are sworn enemies of our Beast Race, so it's nothing personal against you," Nuo Qinglin said with an apologetic smile.

"I completely understand, Chief Nuo. There's no need to look out for me. My powers are very limited, but I can definitely look after myself," Han Li replied with a faint smile.

"You're far too modest, Fellow Daoist Li. If things take a turn for the worse for our Beast Race in the upcoming battle, I'll be counting on you to lend us your assistance again," Nuo Qinglin said as he cupped his fist in a salute.

All of the other tribal leaders' expressions changed drastically upon hearing this, and the burly dark-skinned man who had spoken earlier exclaimed in a furious voice, "Nuo Qinglin, we are the regal Beast Race! How could you ask for assistance from a deceitful and honorless human?!"

"Brother Ulu, do not forget that the enemy of our Beast Race is the Insect. In order to defeat them, we must recruit all possible allies and unite everyone against a common enemy. I have already spoken to our king about this, and he also approves of my decision," Nuo Qinglin said.

The dark-skinned man's temper immediately died down upon hearing mention of their king, while the other tribal chiefs fell silent as well.
