Meanwhile...
At the edge of Sun Valley!
An utterly terrifying scene was unfolding!
There!
"Aooo! Aooo! Aooo!" A mountainlike Four-Eared Giant Ape, tens of thousands of feet tall, blazed with golden light. Golden light runes shimmered all over his body, sending boundless golden threads rippling outward as he unleashed furious, suffocating roars. With his four enormous ears and his colossal arm, he gripped a cottonlike ball of light tens of thousands of feet across, swung it up, and smashed it savagely into the ground...
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Earth-shaking explosions erupted into the sky. Boundless astral winds raged through heaven and earth, bursting in every direction. Wherever they passed, the world crumbled and shattered. Enormous craters already pocked the ground...
Waves of orange light rippled across the ground, evidently concealing another world beneath it...
This colossal Four-Eared Giant Ape was none other than Li Xiaoya, transformed through the Myriad Beasts Body Tempering Diagram... And that huge, cottonlike ball of light was the transformed Heaven-Stepping Sheep Immortal...
As it turned out!
When Li Xiaoya had first used that Turtle-Shaped Demon Beast to batter the Heaven-Stepping Sheep Immortal, he had discovered that the defense afforded by its wool was far from ordinary...
No.
Rather than calling its defense formidable, it was more accurate to say that the Heaven-Stepping Sheep Immortal's wool, refined through some unknown method, could actually absorb most of the force. Li Xiaoya had smashed it down seven or eight times without weakening its aura in the slightest. After pounding away for so long, he still could do nothing to the damned Heaven-Stepping Sheep Immortal... And when he unleashed his other divine abilities into its thick wool, they had no effect whatsoever...
In a fit of rage, Li Xiaoya had simply grabbed the Heaven-Stepping Sheep Immortal and begun smashing it down...
