Zhong Yue slipped into the mountain forest, sending his mental power spreading in all directions. Before long, he found a Human race tribe. With a thought, he swept up several pieces of clothing.

"How embarrassing. I got carried away and forgot that my clothes had been torn apart."

Zhong Yue dressed himself properly, only then letting out a sigh of relief. Suddenly remembering something, he asked, "Xin Huo, if I turn my mental power into clothes and drape them over myself, will people see through it?"

"People whose cultivation is lower than yours naturally won't see through it. Those whose cultivation is higher than yours will see at a glance that you're naked."

Suddenly, an aura drifted overhead. At the same time, a pair of eyes descended upon Zhong Yue. Seeing that he was a Human race youth, they paid him no attention.

"Another Shuitu Clan Qi Refiner."

Zhong Yue swept him with a glance and thought nothing of it. Now that he had returned to human form, the Shuitu Clan Qi Refiners were looking for Long Xiang and naturally had no suspicions about him, allowing him to swagger away.

"Those bone ships were heading toward Beast God Ridge just now. What exactly are they?"

As Zhong Yue pondered, he hurried toward Sword Gate and thought, "I saw Demonic Energy swirling around the people aboard those ships. They don't look like Sword Gate's Qi Refiners. Could they be experts of the Demonic Race? Strange. The Demonic Race and Human race are mortal enemies. How can they enter my Great Wilderness, and do so with such fanfare?"

He couldn't make heads or tails of it. Beast God Ridge was located in the heart of the Great Wilderness. Sword Gate couldn't possibly be unaware of the Demonic Race's massive invasion, nor could it simply let them barge into the Great Wilderness. Yet there had been no movement at all until now. That was truly strange.

"These Demonic Race members are heading straight for Beast God Ridge. They must have come for the Beast God Seal. They just don't know that aside from a Beast God's inner core, there is nothing else in Beast God Ridge."

Zhong Yue's expression turned peculiar as he thought, "And they don't know how dangerous the Beast God Seal is now, either. The current Beast God Seal can't be broken by using Totem Spirit patterns to seal the stele alone. The Yin Dragon River and the Grass and Trees Become Soldiers Formation have both been restored by Xin Huo and me..."

At Beast God Ridge, within the Beast God Seal, Sulfur Island Master Yan Yunsheng and another Demonic Race giant from Xiankong City, Brocade Island Master Xiu Tianchen, personally led the Demonic Race Qi Refiners into the seal. Countless Demonic Race Qi Refiners had already begun breaking the seal.

These Demonic Race Qi Refiners were all renowned experts from Xiankong City. Their attainments in formations ran deep, and their understanding of Totem Spirit patterns was even more profound.

Outside the Beast God Seal, a huge toad crouched on the ground, while a giant python coiled beside it. One Demonic Race Qi Refiner after another continuously swung their blades, cutting through the skin of the toad and the python and collecting bucket after bucket of blood, which they carried into the seal.

The Demonic Race experts used the blood of the python and toad to draw all kinds of Totem Spirit patterns. These patterns suppressed the Beast God Totems on the steles, dispelled the power of the Beast God Totems, and shaved away the various Seven Kills within the steles.

The toad had six eyes, each one covering an area of roughly a mu. All six eyes bulged outward, arranged in a great circle.

The giant python, meanwhile, had horn-bones like blades growing from its head. A dorsal fin sprouted from its back, and even thin cicada wings covered both sides of its body!

They were not members of the Demonic Race, nor were they Demonic Beasts. They were spirits—the two great Totem Spirits of the Demonic Race!

The auras of these two Totem Spirits were wild, like gods and demons, and astonishingly powerful.

Clearly, the Demonic Race placed tremendous importance on the Beast God Seal this time. They had actually mobilized the Totem Spirits of Sulfur Island and Brocade Island!

The blood of Totem Spirits was not truly blood. It was natural Totem Spirit patterns gathered into a liquid form, containing the spiritual power accumulated through the Demonic Race's countless years of worship. It was perfect for breaking the Beast God Seal!

"Everyone, stay sharp. Nothing can go wrong!"

Yan Yunsheng looked around. Seeing the Beast God's power being suppressed within one stele after another, he finally relaxed and said, "Beast God Ridge really was transformed from the Beast God after his death. He became eight hundred li of mountain ranges after dying. That Beast God was powerful beyond imagination. Brother Xiu, the Sect Master of Sword Gate is still alive, but I estimate he doesn't have much longer. This time, when I go to Sword Gate, I will not only establish my might and suppress everyone in Sword Gate with sheer momentum; I also have another purpose—to investigate whether that old ghost is alive or dead. Although that old ghost broke my momentum, he never showed himself and instead had the Shuitu Clan negotiate with me. If that man, who was once known as the Sword God, still had his old temper, how could he have negotiated with me? He would have attacked and killed me long ago! Clearly, he truly is dying."

Brocade Island Master Xiu Tianchen stood with his hands behind his back and said leisurely, "As long as Old Ghost Feng is not dead, no one dares touch Sword Gate. Once Old Ghost Feng dies, Sword Gate will surely be destroyed. The reason he is clinging to life is that he saw this coming and wants to live a few more years to cultivate the next Sect Master for Sword Gate. Unfortunately, Sword Gate's older generation has withered away. As for the four great experts of the younger generation—Feng, Fang, Lei, and Jun—they only rose to fame in recent years. Although they can contend with the older generation, they are still far from becoming giants. I wonder whether Old Ghost Feng of Sword Gate can hold on until the day these four grow into giants."

"Feng, Fang, Lei, and Jun are all innate Spiritual Bodies. They possess spirits from birth and are born Qi Refiners. They cannot be underestimated. Unfortunately, they have cultivated for too short a time."

Yan Yunsheng laughed. "The Great Wilderness is destined to belong to my Demonic Race! The Great Wilderness is my Demonic Race's pasture. These Humans are our livestock, and they even know how to breed and hunt for themselves. We only need to let the Humans roam free here and harvest a batch every so often. Then my Demonic Race's food will never run out!"

Xiu Tianchen also personally took action, using the blood of the two Totem Spirits to seal one stele after another. "This Beast God treasure surely contains the ancient Beast God's supreme treasure. What a pity that the Lord of Xiankong City was unwilling to come. With him here, our speed in breaking the seal would increase tremendously!"

The Beast God Totems on one stele after another were suppressed. The many Demonic Race Qi Refiners, along with Yan Yunsheng and Xiu Tianchen, gradually advanced deeper into the seal.

"This river..."

Xiu Tianchen suddenly stopped. He stared blankly at the stream flowing gently not far from his feet, his face filled with thought. All at once, his face twisted into a savage grimace. Drawing in a breath, he shouted sharply, "Stop! All of you, stop!"

His voice was deafening, leaving the Demonic Race Qi Refiners dizzy and disoriented. Without realizing it, they stopped what they were doing.

Yan Yunsheng frowned. "Brother Xiu, what happened?"

Xiu Tianchen's face was sallow. He slowly retreated, his voice somewhat hoarse. "There is a second layer of sealing within this Beast God Seal. We only broke through the first layer; the second remains untouched. Withdraw immediately. Retrace our path. Do not take even one wrong step!"

Yan Yunsheng also saw that something was amiss and immediately retreated along the path they had come.

Suddenly, a Demonic Race Qi Refiner took one wrong step.

The surroundings abruptly fell silent. Not the slightest sound could be heard. Xiu Tianchen and Yan Yunsheng's expressions changed drastically, and they hurriedly fled backward at full speed!

Boom!

The thin river within the Beast God Seal suddenly rose into the air and expanded wildly. In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a black dragon, ferocious and vicious, churning the winds and clouds within the seal and slaughtering everything in its path!

At that moment, all the Demonic Race Qi Refiners panicked. They scattered in every direction, desperately trying to escape the seal!

At the same time, blood began to gush from within the steles, streaming out in rivulets. The Beast God Totem patterns that the Demonic Race Qi Refiners had painstakingly suppressed just moments earlier had actually broken free. One stele after another awakened, and one Seven Kill Formation after another began to take shape!

At the same time, the flowers, grass, and trees within the seal began to sway restlessly. Every flower and blade of grass, every leaf and branch, seemed to transform into a soul weapon of unimaginable power, becoming blades of peril beyond measure!

Clang, clang, clang! The flowers, grass, and trees rose into the air. The iron horse turned its weapons upon its own side, and killing intent filled every inch of space in an instant!

Within the Beast God Seal, heads fell to the ground one after another. The limbs of the Demonic Race Qi Refiners flew in all directions, severed cleanly. Some Qi Refiners roared and transformed into their true forms—colossal Demonic Beasts of immeasurable size. They summoned soul weapons to resist the activated Beast God Seal!

Yet the moment they revealed their true forms, huge gods and demons strode out from the steles. In an instant, the Beast God Seal was filled with surging gods and demons, which seized the giant beasts one after another and tore them apart!

Who knew how many Demonic Race Qi Refiners were ripped to shreds and devoured by the gods and demons?

Fortunately, quite a few Qi Refiners were extraordinarily powerful and managed to withstand the gods and demons around them. Yan Yunsheng and Xiu Tianchen, in particular, were incomparably strong as island masters. With a single palm strike, they sent one god and demon after another flying.

Those still alive were all elites among the Demonic Race Qi Refiners. In Sword Gate, they would likewise have been renowned experts!

"Roar!"

A roar rang out as the middle formation of the Beast God Seal activated. Thousand-zhang gods and demons charged back and forth through the seal, slaughtering everything in their path. Blood and flesh flew everywhere. In less than the time it took to draw a breath, more than a thousand Demonic Race Qi Refiners had been wiped out, leaving only the two island masters, Yan Yunsheng and Xiu Tianchen.

The two rushed to the edge of the seal. They were only one step away from escaping when the platforms within the Beast God Seal began to shake violently. The rumbling sounded like a tide, and beams of light shot from the platforms into the blue heavens!

At that moment, Zhong Yue was already nearing Sword Gate. He suddenly turned his head and looked back. In the direction of Beast God Ridge, forty-nine thick beams of light shot into the sky, followed by a dazzling curtain of light forming overhead!

The curtain of light was like a bright mirror, spinning endlessly. One thousand-zhang god and demon after another was sucked into the mirror.

"The three great formations have finally activated together!"

Xin Huo was overjoyed. He leapt out of Zhong Yue's sea of consciousness and hopped onto Zhong Yue's head, sitting there as he watched. "Little brat Yue, hurry and look at the grand spectacle!"

Zhong Yue looked over, and his heart shook violently. He saw the mirror-like curtain of light tremble, and a leg more than a li thick slowly descended from within it, covered in dragon scales. Next came an enormous body, a long tail, and a head like a mountain!

Long Xiang!

A Long Xiang formed entirely from Totem Spirit patterns, a Long Xiang so immense that its size defied imagination!

That terrifying, god-and-demon-like aura shook the entire Great Wilderness, making every person and every living creature tremble in their hearts!

The Long Xiang descended into Beast God Ridge. Its enormous body could still be seen from far away, rising and falling amid Beast God Ridge like a mountain range!

A black dragon also moved among the mountains, appearing and disappearing. Sword qi tore through the sky, as if it could cleave the heavens apart!

Suddenly, a six-eyed toad soared through the air carrying a white bone ship on its back. Beneath the toad's feet, a giant python rose into the air, carrying the toad as it swam through the sky and roared away!

In the next moment, the giant python was dragged back and devoured by the black dragon. Sword qi ripped through the air and cut down the six-eyed toad. With a roar, the Long Xiang crashed into the bone ship, shattering it. Two figures tumbled out and were sent flying from Beast God Ridge by the impact.

Zhong Yue was dazzled and shaken to the core. Xin Huo shook his head and said, "They actually didn't all die. Could I have made a mistake in my arrangements and failed to unleash the full power of the three killing formations... It definitely wasn't me! How could someone as wise and mighty as I make a mistake? It must be that Beast God fellow's skills were mediocre! Yes, that has to be it!"
