Ao Sheng's Divine Might, Qilin Ancestral God

Immortal King Wuzhong seemed to have realized something; a sharp glint flashed in his eyes as he scanned his surroundings, his gaze finally landing on a massive black stone statue at the boundary wall.

"Fellow Daoists, perhaps we can utilize this formation to subdue Ao Sheng!" Immortal King Wuzhong waved his hand, scattering a sheet of immortal radiance. As the iridescent light covered the grimy, black statue, wisps of black smoke suddenly rose from it and dissipated into the air.

As the immortal radiance blanketed it, the statue continuously emitted black mist, and gradually, the true form of the once pitch-black, filthy statue was revealed.

The statue was carved from snow-white, suet-like ancient jade. It was shaped like a Kirin, lifelike and vivid—truly a work of divine craftsmanship!

The Kirin Demon-Suppressing Statue!

The primary purpose of this Demon-Suppressing Statue was as a sealing formation laid down by the Primal Ancient Realm to prevent the Foreign Realm from bypassing defenses to launch sneak attacks; in ordinary times, it served to seal away those demons who had fled into the ancient realm, preventing them from wreaking havoc.

"If we Immortal Kings join forces to activate it, we might be able to subdue Ao Sheng," Immortal King Six Paths Reincarnation stated.

"Quickly, let us inject our immortal power into the Kirin Divine Statue and activate the formation together!" Immortal King Sanqing commanded loudly.

The other Immortal Kings understood immediately. They swiftly formed seals and channeled their magic power, activating the massive runic formation. Beams of brilliant light rose from the formation, forming a colossal curtain of light that descended to envelop Ao Sheng.

Seeing this, a flash of surprise crossed Ao Sheng's eyes.

This group of Immortal Kings was truly courting death!

To dare pull such flashy tricks right under his nose—they clearly did not hold him in any regard!

Ao Sheng had not expected these Immortal Kings to join forces to attack him, yet there was not a trace of fear on his face; instead, he wore a mocking sneer.

"You ants dare to strike at this Venerable One!" Ao Sheng bellowed, his aura erupting violently and shattering the descending curtain of light.

However, the very moment his power erupted, Immortal King Wuzhong and the other Immortal Kings seized the opportunity, pouring their full strength into the Kirin stone statue.

The Kirin Divine Statue suddenly burst into intense radiance, and a majestic power emanated from it. A massive phantom slowly emerged, shuddering violently as it let out a deafening roar. A powerful energy fluctuation instantly spread outward, shaking the entire space.

As the energy fluctuations intensified, a colossal phantom gradually emerged from the Kirin Divine Statue. It was a majestic and domineering Kirin, its body radiating brilliant light as if it were composed of endless stars.

"The Ancestor of the Ten Fiend Kirins!" an Immortal King cried out in disbelief. The origin of this Kirin stone statue was astonishing; it could actually summon the phantom of an Ancestral God at the peak of the Immortal King giant level.

The phantom of the Ten Fiend Kirin Ancestral God stood tall and fierce, its body exuding a powerful aura that exerted a crushing sense of pressure.

"Ao Sheng, surrender at once!" Immortal King Wuzhong shouted. He and the other Immortal Kings formed a formation, continuously injecting immortal power into the Kirin Ancestral God phantom.

Blessed by the power of the Immortal Kings, the phantom of the Ten Fiend Kirin Ancestral God glowed with brilliant immortal light, radiating endless might as it lunged fiercely toward Ao Sheng, intent on killing him.

As its massive claws swung, they seemed to tear through the void, emitting an aura of destruction.

Witnessing the strength of the Kirin Ancestral God phantom, Ao Sheng dared not be negligent and immediately channeled his magic power to meet it head-on.

He formed seals with both hands, releasing beams of brilliant light that collided with the attacks of the Kirin Ancestral God.

The Kirin Progenitor phantom opened its blood-red maw and spat out a brilliant pillar of light that shot straight into the heavens. Wherever the pillar passed, the void seemed to be torn asunder, revealing a massive spatial rift.

Seeing this, Ao Sheng dodged in haste, forming seals with his hands to release powerful spells in an attempt to block the Kirin Progenitor's attacks, fearing he might be struck.

However, the power of the Kirin Progenitor phantom seemed inexhaustible; every attack forced Ao Sheng to exert his full strength just to defend. The battle in the void grew increasingly intense, the figures of Ao Sheng and the Kirin Progenitor phantom intertwined, erupting with dazzling light.

Ao Sheng's attacks were violent and swift, like thunder, while the Kirin Progenitor phantom used softness to overcome hardness, deflecting Ao Sheng's attacks at every critical moment.

Throughout their struggle, the entire space trembled incessantly. Endless energy gathered, collided, and exploded in this region, forming a brilliant curtain of light that was dizzying to behold.

The other Immortal Kings stood to the side, pouring their full immortal power into the Kirin Divine Statue, their faces filled with astonishment. They had not expected Ao Sheng to be able to contend with the Kirin Progenitor phantom for so long.

In this fierce battle, the strength of both Ao Sheng and the Kirin Progenitor phantom was displayed to the fullest. Ao Sheng's attacks were like a raging storm, while the Kirin Progenitor phantom used softness to overcome hardness, borrowing strength to deflect all of Ao Sheng's strikes.

Watching the Kirin Progenitor phantom grow more valiant with every exchange, a flash of ruthlessness crossed Ao Sheng's eyes. He formed a forbidden seal with both hands, his aura erupting to its absolute limit, a faint radiance flickering around his body, blindingly bright.

BOOM!

A powerful spell flew from his hands, slamming into the Kirin Progenitor phantom.

The Kirin Progenitor phantom was sent flying back over a thousand meters by the blow, and even its majestic, awe-inspiring beastly form appeared significantly more translucent.

"Half... step... breaking... the... realm...!"

"A Half-Emperor!"

Finally, during a violent collision, the Kirin Progenitor phantom let out a heaven-shaking roar, leaving behind a tragic cry that seemed to speak of its unwillingness and regret. The entire space trembled, and then, the brilliant light gradually dimmed until it finally dissipated into the void.

Ao Sheng stood proudly in the air, a trace of fatigue on his face. Although he had successfully defeated the Kirin Progenitor phantom, the battle had consumed a significant amount of his magic power.

"Did you think you could trap this Venerable One with such things?" Ao Sheng sneered. "Truly overestimating yourselves!"

With that, his figure flickered and he vanished from the spot instantly.

By the time the Immortal Kings saw him again, he had already reached the core of the formation. He slammed a palm onto the Kirin stone statue, and a powerful aura erupted, shattering the entire statue into dust.

The collapse of the Kirin stone statue sent a violent shock through the Immortal Kings; they knew that it was now impossible to subdue Ao Sheng.

However, at that very moment, a mysterious aura suddenly appeared at the boundary of the ancient realm, not far from where they stood.

This aura felt very familiar to the Immortal Kings, yet they could not pinpoint its source. A sense of intense vigilance rose in their hearts, and they rushed toward the boundary to investigate the situation.

When they arrived at the boundary, they discovered that Ao Sheng was confronting this mysterious aura. The two powerful forces collided in the air, forming a massive energy storm that caused the entire ancient realm to tremble.
