while the competition was on its peak.... some where inside the secret realm
a beast with shadow form was talking to another bear beast...in beast language...
(so do you want power....)
(yes, a human killed my husband .... i want revenge...i want him to die.. no i will kill all the humans.)
( excellent.... i mean ...how sad.. they killed your husband .... your children and you are now homeless....you have no job...its hard to live as a widow in this modern beast society....)
(errr...what are you talking about .. i m a male ????!!!!!)
(oh... wow..i didn't know you swing.. i mean ..you know...forget it .. i can give you the power to get revenge but remember i can only make you an peak level origin beast..once you turn into spirit beast i can teleport you by an enchantment .. so will you still want to be a origin level beast just for revenge.....)
(yes , i want revenge, i will kill all humans and will drink their blood and make my home out of their skeletons ...)
(ok take this black core and eat it, you will feel powerful like never before)
The bear took the core and ate it... after some time an agonizing scream filled the whole area..the bear was changing its form inside a black smoke...its getting bigger....
at this time another shadow figure emerged near the previous shadow figure..
(are you sure this thing will work..if not lord will be pissed)
(look i and you can not enter this secret realm with our cultivation but we can project our shadows .. if we cant do anything why not make others who are desperate to do the job. there is something about this bear that i found fascinating and do you think i only given this bear the sacred core?!..there are still other pawns )
(how many...???)
(i dont remember but 50 to 100 may be.)
(thats enough .. i guess.. lets retreat.. the enchantment wont hold long.. the cultivators will know our location..)
(yeah ok..lets go.. let the carnage begin)
At this time the bear finished its transformation.. it looks twice as big from before... a black aura is oozing out of its body... blood red eyes filled with rage...sharp metallic claws... fangs are long and sharp..body hair is like long metal pin...its now ready for its revenge..a Demonic Bear
but it didnt know unlike the other demonic beast it now has the power to corrupt other beasts and his thoughts changed into
(kill ..... murder..... destroy.... exterminate.....massacre....slaughter..)

a secret cave...somewhere...
Previous two shadows manifested themselves ..
a surge of power moved from inside of the cave and the shadows found kneeling themselves before this pressure..
,"is it done?" a heavy voice sounded through the cave.
"yes my lord, we have planted the sacred seeds among the beasts in secret realm"one of them replied
"good ,you can leave and wait near the secret realm to lift their enchantment.. you will wait for the cultivators and attack them ... kill as many as you want .. take them by surprise and retreat"
" lord do you need any help regarding your wound.." the beast couldn't speak more as a big black hand choked him by strangling its neck
"do as you told.. dont try to act over smart... or you die"
the demonic hand then threw the beast to the ground.. and the beast was gasping for air...
after they left the cave the other beast said to his friend
,"was that really necessary"
"yes , getting tortured , treated like a garbage or getting stepped on by a stronger person fulfils me.."
"yes .. i know..your preferences... but next time don't do it when i am any where around you"
In side the dimly lit cave a human silhouette can be seen sitting on a stone throne.. hair and clothes dishevelled.. a sword scar running from his face to his left hand and his chest..mumbling
" Tianmen sect..... Wei Qi ... i am coming for my revenge..i will kill every single one of you"
______________
Oblivious to what was going on inside the secret realm, the competitors were getting ready for the second day of competition .. they have to collect 20 cores today or they will loose ...
Everyone is getting ready except for some people.. like Peng yuan.. who is cursing the secret realm because he couldn't sleep well on the tree branch , its hard and as he has no experience he kept rolling and falling from the branch..
and with beast roars , occasionally attacking beasts through night the young master couldn't get enough sleep.
Yun mei also couldn't sleep as she kept having nightmares about her past and she had to keep vigilance as she thought there are still people who will target her ...
Chen hu who was mourning the death of the bear.....
Xi nan And Shi mei as they couldn't found a place to match their elegance so they slept on the largest tree they found as they said that the tree matched their elegance..
Only people who slept well are the guy with spear , the masked guy with sword and the two hungry malnourished wolves in human clothing as they are searching for a beast to silence the hungry roar their stomach was making..
unnoticed by them the beasts are running or hiding from something in the core area of the secret realm...some beasts also could be seen howling or chirping with agony as they were fighting a black aura on their body but soon they succumb to it , loose their rationality and attack their own kin... even parent beasts attack their own child... pack leader hunting his own pack...
A massacre was taking place...
oblivious to this the sect master ,the elders are only watching their favourite competitors ...they didn't know their negligence was going to cost the competitors their lives as the darkness was bearing its fang wide open to strike at the right moment .. A storm was coming and this was the calmness before the storm....
