A shocking change erupted without warning.
Heaven collapsed and earth split; Shanhai overturned.
As black radiance burst from the Black Tiger Yao's entire body, boundless, eerie Black Blood surged from underground.
Evil and ominous, twisted and uncanny.
It was viscous, like a black sea.
In an instant, the black sea covered a third of the Half-Demon Grounds. Beneath the Black Tiger Yao's feet, it gradually formed an enormous heavenly stairway spiraling upward.
The moment this stairway appeared, it shrouded the entire Black Mountain Demon Stockade in a "human" aura that made the yaos' scalps crawl.
Vast and seemingly endless, it spread recklessly outward with the Black Tiger Yao at its center.
Ten miles, a hundred miles!
The contamination rippled like water. The closer to the Black Tiger Yao and the stairway, the worse it became; erosion had already begun in this area.
Some Lesser Yao with weak resistance howled in agony. Demon Power was forcibly squeezed out of their bodies, while violent Humanization rapidly overtook every part of them.
Some had their features gradually twist. As blood streamed from their seven orifices, equally despairing human faces grew out of their yao blood.
Some had their tails break off at the root. Their hunched, crooked yao spines cracked violently, straightening upright little by little.
Beyond these, there were many other signs of erosion.
Humanization of the features, Humanization of the limbs.
Humanization of the bones, Humanization of the internal organs.
Even their own bloodlines were rapidly turning into human bloodlines.
Around the Black Tiger Yao, meanwhile, soil churned constantly and Black Blood boiled, with strange phenomena appearing one after another.
Grave upon grave exuding human smoke.
Altar upon altar bearing offerings of the five grains.
On the altars, yin incense burned without wind, and the faint sounds of human sacrificial chants
