"Why wait any longer? Awaken now!"
Nine Infants' voice boomed like thunder across the core region of the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains.
As his words fell, a rustling sound came from a massive stone mountain before him.
Looking closely, it was no ordinary stone mountain. It was clearly a yao mountain formed from countless giant yao piled atop one another.
As the giant yao awakened and crawled outward, the yao mountain began to collapse, turning back into individual North Sea Giant Demons. Their scarlet eyes held nothing but boundless savagery.
"Hungry!"
"Food! We need food!"
"I smell food! Kill them all!"
Hearing the giant yaos' unrestrained roars, Nine Infants grew excited and raised an arm in a shout.
"My children, no one in Hong Huang can control us anymore! The food is right before us—follow me and kill!"

Any plants they encountered either turned to ash or were completely corroded by the poisonous mist.
"The food is ahead! Charge!"
When they saw the leaders of the myriad clans led by the North Border Leopard Tribe Leader, the North Sea Giant Demons sped up even more, afraid they would miss out on the food if they were too slow.
Watching the giant yaos pounce toward them, the North Border Leopard Tribe Leader broke out in a cold sweat. Using the last of his strength, he forced himself to kneel and held up the offerings he had brought.
"Seniors, we are willing to submit!"
One sharp-eyed leader spotted Kunpeng in the distance and could not help crying out, "Demon Master! Demon Master! We are willing to submit! Please save us!"
