The giant ape divine form had already grown far too enormous.
Its five fingers were like five mountain peaks.
The lines in its palm resembled ravines and valleys.
Its streaming long fur swayed like forests upon the mountains.
Boundless, majestic divine power supported the movements of this divine form.
This reckless palm strike seemed intent on slaughtering every Demon Race member present in one sweep!
Had that truly been the case, Lu Qilang would not have been alarmed. Everyone could join forces and fight for their lives, while he endured until the end and seized that fleeting best opportunity.
But the inspiration that leaped into his mind told him with tremendous certainty that the giant ape divine form's true target was the tiny spark buried deep within the ashes in the bronze cauldron.
Then he could not endure any longer...
The mountain-like palm had only just spread open.
The demons atop the Celestial Demon Dharma Altar had already scattered like birds and beasts.
Up the mountain stairs, down the mountain paths, around the edges of the Cloud Terrace, even into midair—they fled in every direction, like the petals of a split plum blossom.
Only Lu Qilang, hand on his sword as he looked around, remained standing alone before the bronze cauldron.
His handsome face flushed red as he righteously called out, "The Celestial Demon Dharma Altar was left behind by the sages of old. How can we sit by and watch it be easily destroyed by an evil god?!"
The only response was the fur-covered palm of the giant ape divine form, snapping through the fierce wind.
Truly, the times had declined, and demon hearts were no longer what they used to be.
No one was even willing to protect the Celestial Demon Dharma Altar anymore!
