Array Killing Qi Refiner

Zhong Yue looked around, seeing stone tablets like a forest and high platforms standing tall. He couldn't help but shiver. "After the Beast God died, its Spiritual Power didn't dissipate. It triggered the formation, and seven demon gods emerged from the stone tablets to devour that ram. This is just the most basic Seven Kill Formation! If the intermediate formation composed of forty-nine Seven Kill Formations were triggered, how powerful would it be?"

And how powerful would the large formation formed by forty-nine intermediate formations be if it were triggered?

Perhaps the Great Wilderness for a hundred thousand miles would once again witness the terrifying scene of gods and demons descending.

And this was merely the seal left by the Beast God before its death. If this Beast God had been at its peak strength, the sealing power would surely have been even more formidable!

Walking into such a terrifying formation, even with Xin Huo's guidance, he still felt uneasy!

However, he even felt a sense of anticipation, looking forward to seeing the complete Beast God Grand Formation unleash its power.

"I must have been corrupted by Xin Huo. Why would I anticipate such a grand formation erupting?"

Zhong Yue blinked and followed Xin Huo's instructions step by step into the formation, not taking a single wrong step. He thought to himself, "If this grand formation were to erupt, it would likely be as terrifying as a natural disaster. Even this eight-hundred-mile Beast God Ridge would be in jeopardy. Only those who wish for chaos would hope for the formation to erupt, right?"

"Little Yue, if this grand formation erupts, it will be incredibly spectacular. Later, let's see if we can retrieve that sunken high platform and complete this formation!" Xin Huo said excitedly.

"As expected, I've been corrupted by him," Zhong Yue thought.

Xin Huo muttered incantations, calculating the principles of the formation's operation, and gradually guided him deeper into the formation. They proceeded without incident.

"Huh? Why are there totem markings on this stone tablet?"

Zhong Yue suddenly saw a stone tablet covered in fresh blood, which hadn't yet dried. A strange totem pattern was drawn on it, piquing his curiosity.

The other stone tablets were clean. Only when someone triggered the formation would totem patterns appear to slay the intruders. After the intruders died, the totem patterns would automatically vanish.

"The totem patterns on this stone tablet are definitely not part of the Beast God Seal. Someone else must have set them up. Could it be the ram's master, that Demonic Race Qi Refiner?"

Zhong Yue's heart stirred. "By leaving these totem patterns on the stone tablet, is he perhaps using them to break and suppress the Seven Kill Formation?"

He carefully examined these totem patterns. The textures were extremely profound and completely different from the totem patterns of Sword Gate. Sword Gate's totem patterns revered nature. Whether it was the Thunder Totem patterns or the Flood Dragon Totem patterns that Zhong Yue had learned so far, they were conceived based on the patterns of thunder and flood dragons in nature. The variations in thunder patterns and dragon markings ultimately stemmed from the same source.

However, these Demonic Race totem patterns contained much more killing intent and demonic variations. They were crafted with blood to enhance their power, making them even more bizarre!

"This blood is human blood!"

Zhong Yue sniffed the blood and his expression turned cold. The totem patterns on the stone tablet were drawn with human blood, and specifically, the blood of virgin boys and girls!

"Is our Human race truly so insignificant outside the Great Wilderness? If, as Xin Huo said, our Human race are descendants of the Fuxi Divine Clan, why have we fallen to such a state?"

He steadied himself and, following Xin Huo's guidance, walked forward, delving deeper into the grand formation. Not long after, Zhong Yue suddenly saw demonic energy permeating the air ahead, forming a hazy, gray mist.

Within the mist, blood seemed to surge, forming a colossal body, like a god or a demon, writhing in the fog.

"Could it be that Demonic Race Qi Refiner?"

Just as Zhong Yue thought this, the mist suddenly shifted. The colossal body formed by blood within the mist abruptly turned its head and looked at him. A massive, fiery red eye flickered within the mist!

Zhong Yue immediately felt the world spin. A gigantic blood-red eye appeared in his Sea of Consciousness, rolling around, floating above his Sea of Consciousness, covering an area of several acres!

Under its gaze, his entire body's blood and qi almost boiled, surging towards his Sea of Consciousness, as if about to be completely devoured by this blood-red eye!

"Such a bizarre attack method! Is that Demonic Race Qi Refiner targeting me? How dare he harm me within my Sea of Consciousness?"

Zhong Yue grunted and immediately visualized Suihuang. His Sea of Consciousness churned, and his Soul transformed into Suihuang, rising slowly from the Sea of Consciousness amidst lightning and thunder!

Anything struck by the lightning was shattered, and anything crushed by the thunder was annihilated!

With Suihuang's appearance, it was as if a Divine Emperor sat on the heavenly court, banishing all demons!

The blood-red eye floating above his Sea of Consciousness let out a crackling sound and was refined by Suihuang, turning into pure Spiritual Power. It rained down like a deluge, causing Zhong Yue's Sea of Consciousness to rise rapidly, and his Spiritual Power cultivation increased by nearly half!

"Refining this blood-red eye is equivalent to consuming over a hundred Feather Spirit Pills!"

Zhong Yue was both shocked and delighted. A muffled groan came from the gray mist. The mist dissipated, and the god-like figure within it also vanished. A strange voice said coldly, "A Qi Refiner from Sword Gate? And such a young brat. If I capture you and take you outside the Great Wilderness, I can sell you for a handsome price! Since you're here, I assume my three disciples have met their demise?"

"Qi Refiner? He actually thinks I'm a Qi Refiner from Sword Gate? Didn't he see that I haven't become a Qi Refiner yet?"

Zhong Yue was baffled. He didn't realize that he had refined the blood-red eye in the blink of an eye. Although it hadn't caused much damage to the Demonic Race Qi Refiner, such terrifying Spiritual Power resilience and attack power were undeniably the abilities of a Qi Refiner!

However, the Demonic Race Qi Refiner hadn't expected that while Zhong Yue's Spiritual Power resilience and attack power had reached the level of a Qi Refiner, his Spiritual Power cultivation was still very weak, with a Sea of Consciousness only five hundred acres in size.

When the Demonic Race Qi Refiner rashly launched a mental attack, he naturally couldn't ascertain Zhong Yue's true cultivation level.

"Your three disciples, were they a sheep, a snake, and a bear?"

Zhong Yue laughed heartily, feeling no fear whatsoever. He declared loudly, "I killed two, and the remaining one fled into this seal and died after triggering the formation himself. Brother Demonic Race, please accept my condolences."

"Hehehe, they deserved to die for being inferior. But since you killed my disciples, you deserve to die too!"

The Demonic Race Qi Refiner's voice grew even more sinister. He chuckled, "Although you are a Qi Refiner, your skills are inferior to mine. Moreover, I am of the Demonic Race, kin to the Beast Gods. Within this Beast God Seal, I can harness the power of the formation to obliterate you! Brat..."

Zhong Yue strode forward. Before the Demonic Race Qi Refiner could finish speaking, Zhong Yue had already reached his front, his steps carrying him as if through empty space, treating the treacherous formation as if it were nothing.

Zhong Yue looked back. The Demonic Race Qi Refiner was tall and thin, over ten feet tall. He looked human, but his skin was covered in scales, making it unclear what race he belonged to.

On his back was a gourd as tall as a person. Blood gurgled within the gourd, and clumps of blood rolled around the opening of the gourd. Within each clump of blood was the soul of a virgin boy or girl.

This gourd contained the blood of virgin boys and girls. How many people had to be killed to refine such a gourd of blood!

Seeing Zhong Yue reach him in just a few steps, the Demonic Race Qi Refiner was startled. "Is this fellow playing dumb to catch a tiger, pretending to be a young Qi Refiner but actually an old monster from Sword Gate? Otherwise, how could he be so familiar with this formation and penetrate the Beast God Seal so easily... No!"

Zhong Yue was very close to him, only a few stone tablets away. He could immediately see through Zhong Yue's cultivation!

"A human brat, a brat who hasn't even sensed a Spirit!"

The Demonic Race Qi Refiner stared blankly at Zhong Yue and exclaimed, "You're not a Qi Refiner from Sword Gate, so how do you know the Beast God Seal so well and walk here?"

He was instantly overjoyed and laughed heartily, "I haven't even become a Qi Refiner yet, and my Spiritual Power is already not much weaker than a Qi Refiner's. Truly a top-tier human! If I capture you, you'll fetch an even higher price than a Qi Refiner! Brat, just stay put obediently! Blood Gourd, sacrifice!"

The gourd immediately gurgled and oozed blood, transforming into a bloody hand about ten feet in radius. It reached for Zhong Yue through the stone tablets!

"Kid Yue, take three steps left and jump forward sixteen feet," Xin Huo instructed.

Zhong Yue did as he was told, taking three steps and leaping sixteen feet forward, landing precisely at the edge of this Seven Kill Formation. The bloody hand was already behind him.

At the same time, the stone tablets of the Seven Kill Formation suddenly changed. Blood flowed from them, and then the totem patterns on the tablets activated the Seven Kill Formation!

Xin Huo said unhurriedly, "Take one step forward."

Zhong Yue stepped forward, exiting the Seven Kill Formation. Just then, as the Seven Kill Formation activated and the hand from the Blood Gourd was about to strike, terrifying auras erupted from the seven stone tablets. The Spiritual Power of the Beast God, hidden within the stone tablets, surged out, transforming into seven divine demons that shattered the bloody hand with a roar!

"Xin Huo, what would happen if I attacked this killing formation from the outside?" Zhong Yue looked back at the Seven Kill Formation. He realized he had already moved out of the range of the forty-nine stone tablets near the platform. His heart stirred, and he suddenly asked.

Xin Huo chuckled, "You would activate this intermediate killing formation. What, do you have destructive urges and want to witness the power of this intermediate killing formation?"

"Then let me witness it!"

A sharp glint flashed in Zhong Yue's eyes. He let out a low roar, and his Spiritual Power manifested as a Flood Dragon, charging fiercely into the formation, heading towards the seven divine demons!

The Demonic Race Qi Refiner's eyes widened in fury. He quickly turned and fled out of the formation. Just then, the seven divine demons suddenly merged, transforming into a monstrous creature with seven heads and fourteen arms and legs. Before Zhong Yue's Flood Dragon manifestation could even get close, it was crushed by the divine demon's aura!

Simultaneously, the other forty-eight killing formations activated. Blood gushed from the stone tablets, and divine demons appeared, roaring loudly!

As this intermediate killing formation activated, the divine demons merged with each other, their power growing stronger and stronger. Only forty-nine seven-headed divine demons remained, charging back and forth within the formation, shredding everything!

Zhong Yue watched from outside the formation. The Demonic Race Qi Refiner only had time to let out a scream before he was torn to shreds and completely devoured by the forty-nine seven-headed divine demons!

Then, the forty-nine divine demons merged again, two by two, forming a single, towering divine demon that let out a sky-shattering roar, scattering the clouds above. It was incredibly awe-inspiring!

This was the power of an intermediate killing formation!

"Intermediate killing formations are indeed formidable!"

Zhong Yue shook his head and walked forward. "Great Wilderness is not a place for your Demonic Race. It's a pity you realized it too late."
