Ancestor's Stone Statue

The Ancient Buddha Script, in the wind, instantly grew larger, like a chaotic Buddha Mountain, and fiercely pressed down.

The Purple Demon Race leader was terrified.

"Demonic Light Divine Flame!"

Astonishing demonic flames surged from his entire body, madly attacking the Ancient Buddha Script. He unleashed his full power, striking the Ancient Buddha Script, yet it couldn't be moved an inch!

BOOM!

The Purple Demon Race leader was instantly crushed into the ground by the Ancient Buddha Script!

The entire Buddha cave trembled.

The ground of the Buddha cave continuously cracked and spread, forming astonishing rift valleys.

The other Purple Demon Race experts who were about to charge over were all scared to a halt. They stared blankly at their leader, who had been crushed into the ground by the Ancient Buddha Script.

At this moment, the Ancient Buddha Script flew up and returned to Lu Yiping's hand.

The Purple Demon Race leader was already completely embedded in the ground, mixed with the earth. His flesh and blood had turned into a paste.

All these changes happened in the blink of an eye.

The Purple Demon Race experts were dumbfounded, their minds blank, as they watched their leader suddenly get blasted to death.

A True God Realm expert, whose divine body was as strong as a regular Divine Artifact, was instantly turned into a paste.

Just as the Purple Demon Race experts were staring dumbfoundedly, Zhang Jin, Zhao Wen, Wei Bing, and Chen Yongyuan made their move. Their figures flickered, and colossal elephants condensed behind them.

"Heavenly Elephant Divine Prison Fist!"

They unleashed their attacks simultaneously.

Four mountain-like fist imprints tore through the air.

Nearly a hundred Purple Demon Race experts were sent flying.

Screams echoed throughout the Buddha cave.

But soon, the sounds abruptly stopped.

The entire Buddha cave was stained with purple blood.

Lu Yiping recalled the purple blood on the Lord of All Gods' saber. However, the purple blood on the Lord of All Gods' saber was slightly different from the blood of the Purple Demon Race.

Afterward, Lu Yiping had Zhang Jin and the others collect the belongings of the Purple Demon Race experts, then they left the Buddha cave, exited the Fire Dragon Temple, and continued towards the Baihua Empire.

Not long after Lu Yiping and the others left the Fire Dragon Temple, they saw batches of Tan Family experts arriving.

These Tan Family experts looked at the fallen Tan Family experts along the way, their faces sinking.

"Who is it that killed so many of my Tan Family experts!" a Tan Family True God Realm ancestor who had arrived roared, his eyes blood red.

However, when they followed the bloodstains to the depths of the Buddha cave and saw the corpses of the Purple Demon Race experts, they couldn't help but freeze.

"It was the Purple Demon Race?!"

"But then, who killed these Purple Demon Race experts?"

The Tan Family experts were filled with doubt and uncertainty.

The next day.

Lu Yiping and the others arrived at the Black Sea of the Baihua Empire.

The Black Sea, its waters as dark as ink, was named for this reason.

And Black Sea Mountain was located in the center of the Black Sea.

Lu Yiping looked at the ink-like Black Sea before him, recalling some scenes from when his friend Chen Xiaotian founded the Asura Gate.

He had helped his friend Chen Xiaotian choose the location for the Asura Gate back then, choosing this Black Sea.

The Black Sea remained, but the old friend was gone.

After pausing for a moment, Lu Yiping and the others flew towards Black Sea Mountain.

At this time, on Black Sea Mountain, Li Fei, the sect master of the Thousand Demon Sect, was directing the disciples of the Thousand Demon Sect in major construction.

Ever since their Thousand Demon Sect destroyed the Asura Gate and occupied this place, he had planned to make it a crucial branch of the Thousand Demon Sect.

Located in the Black Sea, surrounded by water, the Black Sea's Spiritual Energy was rich, making it ideal for cultivating their Thousand Demon Sect's techniques.

After three years of continuous demolition, renovation, and rebuilding, the Asura Gate's main hall had changed dramatically.

Li Fei looked at the newly renovated Asura Gate main hall and the surrounding buildings with satisfaction. He paced out of the main hall and saw a statue of the Asura Gate's founder, Chen Xiaotian, standing tall in the plaza in front of the hall. His brow furrowed.

From the main hall, one could see the Black Sea, offering an excellent view.

However, this statue, nearly a hundred meters tall, greatly obstructed the view from the main hall.

"You all will take action later and blast and dismantle that statue for me," Li Fei said to a group of Thousand Demon Sect experts beside him.

The Thousand Demon Sect experts exchanged glances.

"Sect Master, this statue of the Asura Gate's founder is a bit strange," one Thousand Demon Sect expert said. "The statue possesses a mysterious power that no one can dismantle."

"Mysterious power?" Li Fei was surprised.

The Thousand Demon Sect experts nodded.

Li Fei pondered, "Then let's not worry about it for now. Grand Elder Ke Jie of the Flying Flower Sect will be coming here for an inspection soon, and I heard that experts from the Martial God Hall will be accompanying him. Prepare yourselves, and we'll go out to welcome them later."

"Martial God Hall experts!" The Thousand Demon Sect experts were shocked.

Li Fei nodded with a smile, "It's Young Master Zhao Zihao from the Martial God Hall."

The crowd stirred.

On the Divine Martial Continent, there were four great young masters: firstly, Wan Hong of the Wan Family; secondly, Zhao Zihao of the Martial God Hall; thirdly, Yun Haitian of the Yun Family; and fourthly, Chen Yuan of the Chen Family.

The Chen Family was the family of Chen Qingyang, the foremost formation master on the Divine Martial Continent, and this Chen Yuan was Chen Qingyang's son.

"Therefore, when you welcome Young Master Zhao Zihao with me later, you absolutely cannot make any mistakes, do you understand?" Li Fei said solemnly.

The Thousand Demon Sect experts' hearts tightened, and they respectfully agreed.

Not long after, two figures were seen breaking through the air from the distant sea. A man and a woman, they were Grand Elder Ke Jie of the Flying Flower Sect and Zhao Zihao of the Martial God Hall.

The Thousand Demon Sect group, who had been waiting for a long time, saw the two appear and quickly went to meet them.

"Greetings, Grand Elder Ke Jie!" Li Fei, the Sect Master of the Thousand Demon Sect, prostrated himself before them. "Young Master Zhao Zihao!"

Ke Jie asked Li Fei and the others to rise. Then, under the reception of the Thousand Demon Sect experts, he and Zhao Zihao arrived at the Asura Plaza in Black Sea Mountain.

Landing on Asura Plaza, Ke Jie looked up at the statue of the Asura Ancestor standing in the center of the plaza. She frowned, "Have this stone statue dismantled."

Sect Master Li Fei of the Thousand Demon Sect respectfully agreed. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Grand Elder Ke Jie, this Asura Ancestor stone statue is somewhat peculiar. It contains mysterious power within and has stood for countless years without falling. It's difficult to dismantle."

Zhao Zihao of the Martial God Hall looked surprised. His gaze fell upon the stone statue, and his eyes flickered with sharp light. He seemed to discover something. He strode forward to the statue and walked around it, sometimes frowning deeply, sometimes relaxing his brow, and then shaking his head.

"Young Master Zhao, you are a formation master. Is there a formation within this stone statue?" Ke Jie asked, feeling strange at Zhao Zihao's expression.

Zhao Zihao pondered deeply and then said, "It's like a formation but not quite. The technique somewhat resembles the Snow Gathering Array and Snow Dissipation Array of Luoxue City."

He then smiled and said, "However, it's not difficult to dismantle this stone statue. Let me try!"
