At this moment, in a certain place deep within the Black Death Swamp.

A group of extraordinary individuals was gathering at this location.

Their expressions were serious, as if they had formed a strange formation, surrounding a powerful existence in the center.

"Roar, roar, roar."

In front of these people, a group of blood beasts, emanating a sinister aura, was gathered. From their aura, it was evident that these blood beasts were the native blood beasts of the Black Death Swamp.

Each of these blood beasts possessed peak-level strength of the fifth rank, not weaker than the Mud Dragon that Qin Chen and the others had slain earlier.

However, at this moment, these blood beasts seemed to be obeying the commands of this group of individuals, crazily attacking towards the center of the circle under their control.

And at the center of the circle, a blood beast covered in blood-colored scales was roaring furiously, bleeding profusely while being besieged by seven or eight peak fifth-rank blood beasts.

This blood beast was the extremely terrifying Blood Reaper Beast from the Black Death Swamp.

The Blood Reaper Beast was a sixth-rank noble-level blood beast, considered a tyrant within the Black Death Swamp. Its most astonishing trait was its speed; often, when it struck, the power was terrifying, making it extremely difficult even for sixth-rank Martial Venerables to dodge. As for fifth-rank Wuzongs, they often couldn't even see how this beast struck before being slain.

Such a terrifying blood beast was viewed with great dread by many martial artists exploring the Black Death Swamp, comparable even to the Yin Soul Beast.

But at this moment, this Blood Reaper Beast was surrounded by the formation created by these people, unable to break free no matter how it charged and struggled.

It was drenched in blood, evidently having sustained significant injuries, and beneath its feet lay several fifth-rank blood beasts.

"Poof!"

Amidst its roars, the Blood Reaper Beast went on a rampage. Its sharp claws had razor-like bone blades on its back; those bone blades were serrated, resembling a sickle. In a flash, a fifth-rank blood beast screamed and was instantly cleaved in two, dying on the spot.

"Master, the fifth-rank blood beasts we've worked so hard to control are nearly dead. If this continues and the Blood Reaper Beast escapes, all our efforts will be in vain."

A middle-aged man with a gaunt face nervously spoke beside a robust middle-aged man with an extraordinary presence.

"Mo Qing, there is no need to worry. I have already investigated this Blood Reaper Beast thoroughly. Under our Beast Control Grand Formation, it has no power to escape. Don’t be fooled by its current vigor; it is actually at its last breath. Just wait a moment longer, and it will surely submit."

The robust middle-aged man said with a faint smile, confidence in his tone: “Once we tame this Blood Reaper Beast, the other fifth-rank blood beasts in the Black Death Swamp will be nothing even if they are all killed.”

"I understand, Master."

Mo Qing nodded, and immediately the group's attacks became even more ferocious.

Boom!

In an instant, three more fifth-rank blood beasts fell dead, but the Blood Reaper Beast had also reached its limit, collapsing to the ground, drenched in blood and clearly unable to continue fighting.

“Blood Reaper Beast, I am the Master of the Beast Control Mountain Villa. You are now at the brink of life and death. As long as you submit to me, I will release you. What do you say?”

The robust middle-aged man slowly stepped forward, speaking in a thunderous voice.

As a Beast Tamer, he understood that sixth-rank blood beasts possessed a certain level of simple intelligence. Although they could not communicate normally, they could barely comprehend some simple content in human conversation.

"Roar!"

The Blood Reaper Beast roared, its eyes fierce and filled with murderous intent, clearly refusing to submit.

"Foolish! Do you think your unwillingness means I cannot tame you?"

The robust middle-aged man sneered coldly. A primitive talisman appeared in his hand, and once activated, it immediately emitted a terrifying blood-colored light. The talisman quickly burned, transforming into a blood-colored rune in the void, which suddenly entered the head of the Blood Reaper Beast.
