Chapter 1176: You Enter the Palace as Well
Time slowly passed, and before long, the mountain summit had been basked in the light of the setting sun, presenting a beautiful sight to behold.
At this point, there were already close to a hundred people gathered on the plaza on the mountain summit, close to twenty of which were Great Encompassment cultivators, sixteen of whom were the chiefs of the sixteen premier primordial tribes.
Aside from these Great Encompassment Stage beings, the rest of the people gathered on the plaza were all the brightest young talents with the purest bloodlines in the primordial tribes, and only they were able to endure the climb to the mountain summit.
Among the tribes present, the Huntun Tribe had the most people, numbering in excess of ten, while the Mountain Moving Ape Tribe had the least people, namely only Yuan Shanbai and the tribal chief.
The Huntun Tribe was a descendant tribe of the Rahu, one of the eight ancient True Spirit Kings, and theirs was an extremely powerful tribe.
Their current chief was a tall and imposing middle-aged man dressed in a very eye-catching, embroidered purple robe, outside of which was a suit of black scale armor. His entire body was bulging with muscles that gave off an appearance of explosive power.
His facial features were extremely hideous, with his entire face riddled with sharp spkes, and his mouth was as wide as that of a toad. There was also a short, purple beard on his chin, and the individual strands of hair in the beard appeared as sharp and straight as steel needles.
His enormous aura indicated that he was a late-Great Encompassment cultivator, and at this moment, he was scouring the entire plaza with a perplexed look on his face.
After a brief hesitation, he made his way to the center of the plaza, where he extended a respectful salute toward Bai Ze, then asked, "Your Majesty, it appears that everyone has already gathered, so why has the blood inheritance ceremony still not commenced?"
"We're waiting on one more person. He should be here soon," Bai Ze replied.
As soon as his voice trailed off, a low roar suddenly rang out from the northern edge of the plaza, following which a giant spider-like figure sprang up into the air before crashing down onto the plaza.
