Qian Lingye Takes Action!

Above the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, countless eyes were fixed on the battlefield.

The Four Symbols Seal the Heavens Grand Array had fully taken shape. A vast, multicolored net stretched across the entire battlefield, completely enveloping Golza and Gagi.

The two Soul Beasts were sealed in place, unable to move an inch.

Almost everyone watching the battle quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Was it finally over?"

Ning Fengzhi stood beside the foundation of the forbidden ground, his palms slick with cold sweat. His taut shoulders finally relaxed a little.

As long as they could trap the two giant beasts, even at a terrible cost, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could at least keep the Earth Vein and preserve the foundation of the sect.

In Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong stared at the projected image with her purple eyes.

She had previously deduced that the two strange beasts were controlled by the same being, but that had only been a conjecture.

After seeing the four join forces and firmly restrain both beasts with her own eyes, even she began to waver.

Could it be that I was overthinking things?

Were these two nothing more than untamable Ferocious Beasts?

Just as everyone thought the crisis was about to end-

Riiip!!

Without warning, a pitch-black rift was torn open across the entire sky!

Within the pitch-black rift, no mountains or land could be seen, nor sun, moon, or stars. There was only a boundless darkness of eternal night that devoured every glimmer of light, while waves of icy pressure slowly flowed out through the rift.

At that moment, every sound between heaven and earth abruptly fell silent.

The wind stopped, the clouds froze, and even the rubble scattering across the battlefield seemed to hang briefly in midair.

Countless gazes were drawn uncontrollably to the terrifying spatial rift.

The next moment-

A fair, slender hand wreathed in a faint, eerie glow slowly reached out from the rift in the void.

The hand was small, with slender knuckles, and even had something of a child's soft, endearing appearance.

Yet with every inch it reached forward, the Soul Power throughout heaven and earth trembled a little more.

There was no overwhelming killing intent, no brilliant radiance, but merely hovering quietly in midair, it sent an instinctive chill rising from the depths of every expert's soul.

A deathly silence gripped the entire scene.

"What is that?! Who's making a move?"

"I can't sense their presence at all... Is that a means of tearing through space?"

"..."

Bibi Dong's delicate brows knitted tightly.

There it is!

She focused and probed into the depths of the rift, but her divine sense was like something cast into a vast, deep sea; it could find nothing.

She was a Level 99 Limit Douluo, standing at the pinnacle of power on this continent.

She, too, could tear through space to make a move, but never so effortlessly.

The uncertainty she had felt earlier vanished without a trace.

Her conjecture had come true.

There really was a being behind the scenes!

Bibi Dong involuntarily recalled the ominous-star chart Qian Daoliu had given her.

That calamitous star from beyond the realm that had appeared out of nowhere...

Could the source of the calamity be behind the rift?

Meanwhile, outside the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Di Tian's soul tensed, his dragon eyes fixed on the hand reaching out of the rift in the void.

He had already suspected that someone must be directing the two Soul Beasts from behind the scenes, and now that suspicion had been confirmed.

But what followed was even deeper bewilderment.

The dark power coiling around the hand was utterly unfamiliar.

He had lived for nearly a million years, witnessed the rise and fall of the myriad races of Star Dou, seen the Dragon God split apart and perish, and followed the Silver Dragon King in cultivation and seclusion. He had come into contact with the origin of the world's Soul Beasts, the divine power of the Divine Realm, and the authority of the dragon race.

But this wisp of power before him lay outside everything he had ever known. It was neither the power of the dragon race nor the origin of Soul Beasts, and still less was it the sacred radiance of the gods of the Divine Realm.

What weighed even more heavily on his heart with shock was the method just used to tear through space and project a hand across a vast distance.

Even he could not interfere in a battlefield so casually from a thousand miles away by merely reaching out a hand.

What was the origin of the being behind the rift?

Among Shrek's group, Tang San went cold all over. He operated his Purple Demon Eye at full power, trying to see through the black rift and glimpse the truth behind it, but the moment his gaze touched its edge, it was repelled by endless darkness, and a sharp pain stabbed through his soul.

Rumble!!

Golza and Gagi, the two giant beasts who had been firmly suppressed by the five experts, made the same movement at once.

Their mountain-sized bodies crashed to their knees!

Their enormous heads bowed low as they prostrated themselves devoutly before the hand that had reached out of nowhere high above.

The sight completely shattered everyone's mental defenses!

It was true!!

Two 300,000-year-old giant beasts, whose combat strength was enough to sweep across the continent, were kneeling in submission before the hand in the void!

Fear, suppressed to its limit, grew wildly in everyone's hearts.

"That's the mastermind behind it all!!"

"Tearing through space! Controlling two 300,000-year-old strange beasts... Just what level of being is this?!"

"It's definitely not a Titled Douluo! Even a Limit Douluo could never do this! Could it be... a god descending into the world?"

"No! That power is darkness! It isn't the Divine Realm's holy light! It's a calamity from beyond the realm!!"

Countless gasps rang out one after another as everyone frantically imagined the true identity of the unknown master behind the rift.

Some guessed it was a slumbering ancient devil god, others an emperor of darkness from another plane, while some thought of the calamitous star from beyond the world that would destroy everything in Qian Daoliu's prophecy.

Yet not one of them dared imagine a nine-year-old child.

High in the void, the fair, tender little hand pointed its five fingertips slightly downward and made a gentle tap.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!!

Five black threads shot from the fingertips, piercing Golza and Gagi's bodies.

That eerie hand was like a puppeteer pulling strings. Golza and Gagi, who had been kneeling on the ground, actually rose slowly under the pull of the black threads, lifting the vast multicolored net with them.

Pitch-black mist surged madly from every crevice in the two giant beasts' skin, staining their eyes red.

Black lines spread across Golza's lava armor, and Gagi's horn erupted with a dark, eerie light.

Both of their presences suddenly surged like a breached dam!

"What?" Di Tian's heart churned with stormy waves.

As the strongest being present, he felt it most directly.

Not only had the two Soul Beasts' stamina fully recovered in an instant, but it had also increased by more than half!

Everything had happened in the span of a single instant!

"Roar!"

Golza and Gagi let out an earthshaking roar in unison, then burst through the vast multicolored net in an instant!

Bang!

Ning Xuanyuan, Chen Xin, Gu Rong, and Yu Yuanzhen.

All four experts suffered backlash at once.

Pfft-

Pfft-

Pfft-

Pfft!!

Four muffled groans rang out almost simultaneously.

Blood sprayed from the mouths of all four men.

Their bodies jerked as though struck by lightning, then flew backward and crashed to the ground far away.

The four ancient towers also slowly faded like extinguished fireworks. Large numbers of Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect disciples suffered backlash and fell backward in droves...

A deathly silence fell over the entire scene.
