Zhong Yue snuck into the mountain forest, his Spiritual Power spreading outwards. Before long, he found a Human race tribe. With a thought, his Spiritual Power swept up a few pieces of clothing.
"Shameful. I got carried away and forgot my clothes were torn."
Zhong Yue dressed himself neatly and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Suddenly, he remembered something and asked, "Xin Huo, if my Spiritual Power were to transform into clothes and wear them, would people be able to see through it?"
"Those with lower cultivation than you naturally wouldn't. Those with higher cultivation than you would see you're mooning them with a single glance."
Suddenly, a breath of air wafted down from above. At the same time, a pair of eyes fell upon Zhong Yue. Seeing he was a young Human, they paid him no mind.
"It's the Qi Refiners from the Shuitu Clan again."
Zhong Yue glanced around, unconcerned. He had returned to his human form now. The Shuitu Clan's Qi Refiners were looking for Dragon Steed, so they naturally wouldn't suspect him. They let him swagger away.
"Where did those bone ships sailing towards Beast God Ridge come from?"
Zhong Yue pondered as he hurried towards Sword Gate. He thought, The people on those ships were enveloped in demonic energy. They don't seem like Sword Gate's Qi Refiners. Could they be powerful figures from the Demonic Race? Strange, the Demonic Race and our Human race are like fire and water. How can they enter our Great Wilderness so openly?
He couldn't figure it out. Beast God Ridge was in the heart of the Great Wilderness. Sword Gate couldn't possibly be unaware of the Demonic Race's large-scale invasion, nor could they allow them to enter the Great Wilderness. Yet, there had been no movement from them. This was quite peculiar.
"These Demonic Race members are heading straight for Beast God Ridge. They must be after the Beast God Seal. They just don't know that besides a Beast God Inner Core, there's nothing else in Beast God Ridge."
Zhong Yue's expression was strange. He thought, Furthermore, they don't know how dangerous the current Beast God Seal is. The current Beast God Seal is far from enough to be sealed by just totem patterns on a stone tablet, because 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, the Sulfur Island Master Yan Yunsheng and another Demonic Race magnate from Xiankong City, the Brocade Island Master Xiu Tianchen, personally led Demonic Race Qi Refiners into the seal. Countless Demonic Race Qi Refiners had already begun to break the seal.
These Demonic Race Qi Refiners were all renowned and respected powerhouses from Xiankong City, possessing profound attainments in formations and an even deeper understanding of totem patterns.
Outside the Beast God Seal, a giant toad squatted on the ground, and a giant python coiled beside it. Demonic Race Qi Refiners continuously swung their blades, cutting open the toad's and python's skin, collecting buckets of blood, and transporting them into the seal.
The Demonic Race powerhouses then used the blood of the giant python and toad to draw various totem patterns, suppressing the Beast God totem on the stone tablets, neutralizing its power, and stripping away the Seven Kill formations within the tablets.
This toad had six eyes, each the size of an acre, protruding and arranged in a large circle.
The giant python had horn-like bone blades growing from its head, dorsal fins on its back, and even thin, cicada-like wings on its sides!
These were not Demonic Race members or Demonic Beasts, but Spirits—the two great Totem Spirits of the Demonic Race!
The aura of these two Totem Spirits was wild, like that of gods and demons, astonishingly powerful.
Clearly, the Demonic Race attached great importance to this Beast God Seal, hence they deployed the Totem Spirits from Sulfur Island and Brocade Island!
The blood of the Totem Spirits was not ordinary blood, but natural totem patterns condensed into a blood-like form, containing the spiritual power accumulated from countless years of Demonic Race sacrifices. It was the best for breaking the Beast God Seal!
"All of you, stay sharp! Not a single mistake can be made!"
Yan Yunsheng looked around. Seeing the Beast God power within the stone tablets being suppressed, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Beast God Ridge truly is formed from the death of a Beast God. After its death, it transformed into eight hundred li of mountains. This Beast God was incredibly powerful. Brother Xiu Tian, the Sword Gate Master is still alive, but he probably doesn't have much time left. When I went to Sword Gate this time, besides establishing my dominance and suppressing everyone in Sword Gate with my presence, my other goal was to probe his life or death. Although this old ghost broke my aura, he didn't show himself. Instead, he had the Shuitu Clan negotiate with me. If it were based on his past temper as the man known as the Sword God, he wouldn't have negotiated with me; he would have killed me long ago! This shows he is indeed dying."
Xiu Tianchen clasped his hands behind his back and said leisurely, "As long as Old Ghost Feng is alive, no one dares to touch Sword Gate. Once Old Ghost Feng dies, Sword Gate will inevitably be destroyed. The reason he's clinging to life is that he realized this 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. The four young masters, Feng, Fang, Lei, and Jun, have only recently gained fame. Although they can contend with the older generation, they are still a considerable distance from becoming paramount existences. Old Ghost Feng of Sword Gate, I wonder if he can hold on until these four grow into paramount beings."
"The four, Feng, Fang, Lei, and Jun, are all Innate Spiritual Bodies. They possess spirits from birth and are born Qi Refiners. They cannot be underestimated, but their cultivation time is too short."
Yan Yunsheng chuckled, "The Great Wilderness, our Demonic Race will obtain it! The Great Wilderness is our Demonic Race's pasture. These Humans are our Demonic Race's food. They know how to reproduce and hunt for themselves. We just need to let the Humans roam here and harvest a batch every so often, and our Demonic Race's food supply will never be insufficient!"
Xiu Tianchen also personally took action, using the blood of the two Totem Spirits to seal the stone tablets. He said, "This Beast God treasure must contain ancient Beast God's supreme treasures. It's a pity the Lord of Xiankong City is unwilling to come. Otherwise, with him here, our speed in breaking the seal would greatly increase!"
As the Beast God totems on the stone tablets were suppressed, the numerous Demonic Race Qi Refiners, along with Yan Yunsheng and Xiu Tianchen, gradually delved deeper into the seal.
"This river..."
Xiu Tianchen suddenly stopped, staring blankly at the gently flowing river not far from his feet, a look of contemplation on his face. Suddenly, his expression contorted into a ferocious grimace. He took a deep breath and shouted sternly, "Stop! Everyone, stop!"
The sound was deafening, making the Demonic Race Qi Refiners dizzy and causing them to involuntarily cease their actions.
Yan Yunsheng frowned and asked, "Brother Xiu Tian, what happened?"
Xiu Tianchen's face turned sallow, and he slowly retreated, his voice hoarse. "There's a second layer of seal within this Beast God Seal. We've only broken the first layer. The second layer hasn't been broken yet. Retreat immediately, go back the way you came, don't take a single wrong step!"
Yan Yunsheng also sensed something was amiss and immediately retreated.
Suddenly, a Demonic Race Qi Refiner took a wrong step.
The surroundings instantly became silent, not a single sound could be heard. Xiu Tianchen and Yan Yunsheng's faces changed drastically, and they frantically sprinted backward!
BOOM!
The slender river within the Beast God Seal suddenly soared into the sky, expanding madly. In an instant, it transformed into a black dragon, ferocious and malevolent, wreaking havoc and slaughtering within the seal!
At this moment, all the Demonic Race Qi Refiners descended into chaos, scattering in all directions, desperately trying to escape the seal!
And at this time, blood began to gush out from the stone tablets. The Beast God totem patterns that these Demonic Race Qi Refiners had barely suppressed were now breaking free. The stone tablets revived, and the Seven Kill formations began to form!
Simultaneously, the flowers and trees within the seal swayed erratically. Each flower, each blade of grass, each leaf, each branch seemed to transform into incredibly powerful Soul Weapons, becoming extremely dangerous armaments!
CLANG, CLANG, CLANG! Flowers and trees soared into the air, iron horses overturned, and a murderous aura instantly filled all space!
Within the Beast God Seal, heads fell. The limbs of the Demonic Race Qi Refiners flew in all directions, severed. Some Demonic Race Qi Refiners roared and transformed into their true forms, becoming colossal Demonic Beasts, wielding Soul Weapons to resist the activated Beast God Seal!
But as soon as they revealed themselves, colossal gods and demons emerged from the stone tablets. In an instant, the Beast God Seal was filled with surging gods and demons, grabbing the giant beasts and tearing them apart!
God knows how many Demonic Race Qi Refiners were torn to shreds and devoured by the gods and demons.
Fortunately, quite a few Qi Refiners were extremely powerful, resisting the surrounding gods and demons. In particular, the two Island Masters, Yan Yunsheng and Xiu Tianchen, possessed unparalleled strength, repelling the gods and demons with a single palm strike.
Those who survived were the elites among the Demonic Race Qi Refiners, renowned powerhouses even within Sword Gate!
"ROAR!"
A roar echoed as the intermediate great formation of the Beast God Seal activated. Thousand-zhang gods and demons charged and battled within the seal. Blood and flesh flew. In less than a single breath, over a thousand Demonic Race Qi Refiners were annihilated, leaving only the two Island Masters, Yan Yunsheng and Xiu Tianchen.
The two of them rushed to the edge of the seal, just one step away from breaking free, when suddenly, the high platforms within the Beast God Seal shook violently. A rumbling sound, like a surging tide, erupted, and beams of light shot out from the platforms into the sky!
At that moment, Zhong Yue, who was nearing Sword Gate, suddenly looked back. He saw that from the direction of Beast God Ridge, forty-nine thick beams of light pierced the sky, followed by the formation of a dazzling curtain of light in the heavens!
The curtain of light resembled a bright mirror, constantly rotating. Within it, divine demons thousands of feet tall were being sucked in.
"The three great formations have finally activated together!"
Xin Huo, ecstatic, leaped out from Zhong Yue's Sea of Consciousness and perched on his forehead, observing the spectacle. "Kid Yue, look at this grand scene!"
Zhong Yue looked and his heart suddenly jolted. He saw the curtain of light, the mirror, tremble as a leg and foot, about a li thick, slowly descended from the mirror. It was covered in dragon scales, followed by an incredibly massive body, a long tail, and a head like a mountain!
Dragon Steed!
A Dragon Steed entirely composed of totem patterns, unimaginably huge!
That terrifying, god-like aura shook the entire Great Wilderness, making all people and all living beings tremble!
The Dragon Steed landed in Beast God Ridge. Its colossal body could still be seen from afar, undulating like mountain ranges within Beast God Ridge!
Another black dragon also appeared, flickering in and out of sight among the mountains, and sword qi slashed through the air, seeming capable of cleaving the heavens!
Suddenly, a six-eyed toad carrying a great ship of white bones soared through the air. Beneath the toad, a giant python slithered into the sky, carrying the toad as it swam through the air, whistling as it went!
The next moment, the giant python was snatched back and devoured by the black dragon. Sword qi slashed through the air, striking down the six-eyed toad. The Dragon Steed roared and crashed into the bone ship, shattering it. Two figures fell out, flung out of Beast God Ridge by the impact.
Zhong Yue watched, dazed. Xin Huo shook his head and said, "They didn't all die? Did my arrangements go wrong, failing to fully unleash the power of the three killing formations... It couldn't have been me! As brilliant and mighty as I am, how could I make a mistake? It must be that Beast God fellow's skill is lacking! Yes, that must be it!"
