Swoosh!

  A beam of bright light shot out from the void and instantly pierced through that formation enveloping the heaven and earth, shooting toward the Bi Fang.

  Someone hidden in the dark finally attacked, unable to restrain himself.

  It was like a signal. More than a dozen beams of light burst out from the void, attacking the battlefield at the same moment once this force struck.

  The scene instantaneously turned chaotic.

  Tianshu pressed down on Ding Hao’s shoulder and said, “Don’t worry, it’s not yet time for us to strike. Let’s inch closer without alerting them.”


  Ding Hao said, “I didn’t intend to attack now anyway.”


  Tianshu was speechless.

  With the help of their silver cloaks, the two slowly approached the battlefield without anyone noticing.

  He did not know where this coarse-looking old man, Tianshu, got this cloak from. It was really wonderful. No one detected their presence as they crept stealthily, the remnant waves of the battle passing through their bodies without causing any ripples.

  Ding Hao had made up his mind. He would not return this cloak after this battle.

  In the distance.

  The extraordinary level of the battle meant that this formation between the heaven and earth had also been shattered.

  The two inched forward furtively, without making any noise.

  In the distance, suddenly—


  “Humph, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”


  With a scornful snort, that Blood Ant Great Demon, who had not yet made a move, waved its forelimbs casually in the void. That person who had rushed forward grabbed that bright beam of light. Suddenly and noiselessly, he shattered into two. There wasn’t even a scream of pain.

  “What terrifying technique.”


  Ding Hao was shocked.

  That blinding light was an expert of the Human Clan, with a strength of at least a one or two-apertured Martial Grand Emperor. Yet, confronted by the Blood Ant Great Demon, he was no better than a piece of tofu. This ant could kill in a single stroke, striking from hundreds of meters away. This Great Demon must have long reached the Demon Saint Realm.

  In other words, the other five powerful figures of the Demon Clan must be also Martial Sage experts.

  There was really no room for any mistake in this battle. It was a dance with Death at the tip of a blade.

  In the blink of an eye, the Blood Ant Great Demon unleashed its power and turned into an adult human, flapping the crystalline wings on his back and morphing into a black bolt of lightning, streaking across the void. It was unstoppable. Accompanied by loud booms, bloody fogs exploded in the void. Translucent white bones and torn limbs were strewn everywhere……

  In the twinkling of an eye, he slew all the forces that struck, whether of the Demon Clan or the Human Clan.

  His huge eyes, like a pair of blood-red lanterns, were only faintly visible in the billowing Demon Aura, shooting out crimson beams of light.

  All of a sudden, the Blood Ant looked in the direction where Ding Hao and his companion were hiding.

  His gaze was like two crimson bolts of lightning, putting them under tremendous pressure and suffocating them.

  “Oh no, did he discover us?” Ding Hao was shocked. Swept by this terrifying gaze, he felt intense pain all over his body, as though stabbed by a knife.

  However, in the next instant, this streak of crimson light from its eyes finally retracted. It did not linger on them.

  A false alarm.

  In the distance.

  The six great powers of the Demon Clan had been torn apart by internal strife. They were engaged in a fierce battle.

  The horrific Demon Aura in the sky was billowing. The sky seemed to have collapsed and the earth to have fissured. The sun and the moon were dim, as mountains and rivers fractured. In the end, the Colossal Charred Tree that tried to swallow the Bi Fang’s body became the target of everyone’s attacks. It was the first to be seriously injured—its majestic black body was almost smashed, with tens of millions of its branches lopped off. Its main trunk was nearly chopped off by the giant Blood Ant’s jaws.

  In the end, the Colossal Charred Tree had no choice but to abandon the Bi Fang’s body and flee. It was badly injured and its inner vitality depleted. It might even regress in its cultivation realm.

  It turned into a black halo of light and disappeared into the void.

  Since the remaining five powerful figures of the Demon Clan had already fallen out with each other, they no longer had any scruples about fighting.

  Soon, the body of the injured Silver Snow Pangolin King was almost maimed, its silver-scaled armor crashing to the ground. Its flesh and blood splattered everywhere. It bellowed wrathfully, flying away……

  The gray Flood Dragon had no choice but to join forces with the Blood Ant to fight the two Green Bulls.

  Large splashes of blood containing endless Demon Aura rained down from the sky, like a sea pouring down water, extinguishing the flames below. The Bi Fang’s body lay on a charred mountain peak. It was dying and could not move at all—at the mercy of its attackers……

  Swoosh!

  A scintillating light flashed, gushing with hidden power, streaking across the sky.

  Another expert hiding in the dark could not restrain himself. He moved toward the Bi Fang’s body on the charred mountain peak.

  “You must be tired of living! All of you, die!”


  The four powerful figures of the Demon Clan, who were engaged in a bloody battle, attacked at the same time. Their terrible power erupted like a raging tide, crushing that greedy man in the void, instantly steamrolling him.

  The four powerful figures of the Demon Clan were fighting fiercely, as Heaven Fire burst like sparks.

  More than two hours passed, and the scene became even more appalling.

  The four powerful figures of the Demon Clan seemed to have detected something, gradually holding back their strength.

  “It’s almost time. Get ready to fight.” Tianshu picked his nose again, digging out another booger and flicking it away in the most natural and unrestrained manner. Then, he said to Ding Hao, “Later, when I shout, we attack at the same time. You help intercept the four Great Demon Saints and those hidden opponents. I’ll deal with the Bi Fang. Remember, unleash your full power. After striking them once, run immediately to the south.”


  Ding Hao nodded.

  At this moment, in the distant battlefield, there was a sudden, totally unexpected change—


  Just as the four great Demon Saints were gradually holding back themselves, the Bi Fang—now as small as a hill chicken, lying on the charred mountain peak and panting heavily—suddenly opened its eyes. Four deep blue flames shot out from its pupils. As fast as lightning, they instantly stabbed into the bodies of the four Great Demon Saints in the sky.

  “Ah……” One of the Demon Saints, the Green Ox, was the first to howl miserably.

  A presence like a Demon Saint would have gone through countless battles. Even if it were smashed to pieces, it would not have howled so miserably. But now it was howling like mad, proving how horrible that deep blue flame was.

  It was just a small spark, but was raging almost instantaneously like a fire seed dropped into a barrel of gasoline, gone totally out of control. Even the Demon Aura around the Green Bull Demon Saint was burning wildly.

  The other three Demon Saints were facing pretty much the same situation. They were all hit by the sparks of that dark blue flame, twirling around their bodies.

  The sky was suddenly filled with the smell of charred and barbecued meat.

  “Innate True Fire!” This phrase flashed through Ding Hao’s mind.

  Only the Innate True Fire of a Divine Big Dipper Beast like the Bi Fang would be able to burn everything in the world, so they claimed. It was the only fire that could make a Demon Saint howl so miserably.

  The Bi Fang was playing dead.

  What a cunning creature!

  “Screech!”


  The next moment, a stream of flowing light shot up the sky. As expected, the dying Bi Fang seemed to be reborn in the fire, its entire body burning with a sky-blue flame, like a sharp arrow shooting across the sky.

  The two Green Bull Demon Saints were almost instantaneously pierced by this flowing light, their huge bodies completely engulfed by the flames.

  Soon, Ding Hao could no longer hear their roars.

  The Blood Ant and the gray Flood Dragon saw that the situation was against them, so they immediately turned around and fled in panic.

  However, the blue flame still splashed onto their bodies, spreading and burning wildly.

  The Blood Ant bellowed furiously and snapped off its waist with its front jaws. The lower half of its burning body fell from the sky, turning into ashes before hitting the ground. Dragging the lower half of its body, it morphed into a crimson light, vanishing into the distant horizon……

  The gray Flood Dragon used almost the same method to sever itself, cutting off one-third of its body, so as to avoid being completely burned into ashes. Its body plunged into the void and disappeared, like a pond loach diving into the mud.

  In the sky, the blue flame was burning wildly.

  The Bi Fang let off a long, delighted and gloating screech, filled with a tremendously powerful aura.

  This scene frightened some of the mysterious experts and forces who were hiding in the void and about to strike. They stepped back at once, afraid that this savage archean creature would unleash its fierce power and kill them all.

  Ding Hao was also shocked.

  That blue flame was simply too horrific.

  But right at this moment……

  “Don’t keep staring like that. Lad, attack now! Unleash your full power and hack the northwest…… quick!” Uncle Tianshu shouted, turning into a stream of flowing light, rushing toward the Bi Fang in the sky dauntlessly, like a moth to a flame.

  Ding Hao was stunned.

  “Is this old fella tired of living and looking to die?”


  The Bi Fang had been reborn in the fire, like a phoenix undergoing nirvana. Its Innate True Fire had almost destroyed several Demon Saints in an instant, yet he was still going after it? He was really willing to give up his life for profits!

  Gazing at Uncle Tianshu’s back like he were a martyr, Ding Hao realized it was too late to pull him back.

  The next moment, with the rusted sword in his hand, Ding Hao unhesitatingly and madly injected Hell Ice Qi into it, activating the sword’s supreme power. Its rust began to swirl like flowing fire. The sword, which was only two fingers wide, was crystal clear like jade and totally flawless, resembling a beam of condensed sunlight. Its unparalleled power surged out, shocking everyone.

  This was how it should be when the rusted sword was activated.

  In the past, every time Ding Hao activated its forbidden power, there would be such a transformation.

  But this time, it was not the same.

  To Ding Hao’s surprise, this was not the end.

  Because in the next moment, the rusted sword continued to transform and expand, finally turning into a half-meter-wide, two-meter-long giant sword. Strange runes seemed faintly discernible on its crystalline sword body. Its entire body was even bigger than Ding Hao.

  Ding Hao’s Hell Ice Qi, which was at the one-apertured Martial King Realm, almost all sucked dry in that instant.

  “Chop!”


  Ding Hao shouted, waving his sword and hacking down.

  Like what Uncle Tianshu had instructed him, Ding Hao hacked down his sword in the northwest.

  He swung down his sword, but it was not as horrific as it used to be.

  The giant crystalline sword was like the sun, and the rust around its body like myriad stars, streaking across the void. An incredible scene unfolded—


  There was a cracking sound in the void, in the direction the sword blade was pointing. A sheet of jade-colored ice materialized.

  More than half of the void froze in that instant.
