Dust flew in the sky.

Most of the G.o.dly Beasts and Demons had flown up to the sky. Similarly, a minority of the G.o.dly Beasts and Demons went down towards the Heaven Zen Mountain.

That was because they had role models.

Fang Zhengzhi and the rest had once fallen to the foot of the Heaven Zen Mountain. Initially, they thought that Fang Zhengzhi and the rest would definitely die but all of them managed to escape unscathed.

Moreover, all of them reached the G.o.dly State.

In this situation, there were definitely risk-takers amongst the G.o.dly Beasts and Demons. Only the one who was brave enough was able to seize the tremendous opportunity.

“Rumble!” The ground exploded open continuously.

The entire Heaven Zen Mountain was crumbling. The mountain split open from the middle and a large crack was formed. It was pitch black and filled with dust, and n.o.body could see what was at the foot of the mountain.

Meanwhile, at this moment, a scream of horror was heard from the foot of the Heaven Zen Mountain.

After that, he spat out a mouthful of blood. The blood gushed out like spring water and caused the air to be filled with an intense b.l.o.o.d.y scent.

Without the scent of the flowers, the scent of blood became more intense.

“What on earth is down there?” Hong You was surprised as he knew that the scream was from a general of the demon race.

What on earth killed him?

Was it a G.o.dly Beast?

Hong You could not confirm. If they fought with each other in the dust, it meant that there was probably a huge opportunity at the foot of the mountain.

However, the did not hear the sounds of people fighting.

He only heard the mountain rocks crumbling.

Qiong Qi and the other G.o.dly Beasts stared at the dust as they tried to make out what had happened too.

However, the layer of dust was too thick such that they could not make out anything.

At this moment, the second scream of agony was heard. After that, a mouthful of blood burst out and it looked extremely b.l.o.o.d.y at this critical moment.

“Another one dead?!” Besides Hong You, Qiong Qi and the rest of the G.o.dly Beasts, as well as Fang Zhengzhi and the rest, were extremely shocked.

That was because it was obvious that a G.o.dly Beast had died.

The loud beastly roar echoed in the mountain and it was filled with terror.

After that, a terrifying event happened. The beastly roar of the G.o.dly Beast and the sharp screams of the demons resonated from the Heaven Zen Mountain.

Almost every G.o.dly Beast and Generals of the Demon Race were screaming.

“What was it that made the G.o.dly Beasts and Generals of the Demon Race scream in unison?!” All of the G.o.dly Beasts, Demons, and humans in the sky felt chills down their backs.

Many G.o.dly Beasts and Demons went down.

There were more than thirty of them.

All of the G.o.dly Beasts and demons shouted in agony together. How terrifying must the thing at the bottom of the mountain be?

“Should we go down to take a look?”

“No, wait a little longer!”

“…”

The G.o.dly Beasts and demons exchanged gazes and rose higher into the sky. None of them were willing to go down.

Meanwhile, at this moment, a gigantic figure suddenly appeared.

It was extraordinarily fast!

It charged out from the Heaven Zen Mountain like a mountain and went towards the sky. Its eyes were bloodshot and looked like two red lanterns.

“What is that?!”

“Hurry, dodge…”

“Wait, he looks like ‘Lu Shu' 1 !”

“Lu Shu?!”

The G.o.dly Beasts and demons were stunned.

Lu Shu was one of the G.o.dly Beasts. He had a body of a horse and the fur of a tiger. He had a gigantic build and was extremely fast.

Lu Shu went down earlier on.

Yet now, he was trying to get out of the Heaven Zen Mountain with all his might.

“Quickly, quickly tell us what happened inside there?” One of the G.o.dly Beasts shouted at Lu Shu and tried to get some details from him.

“Run, quickly…” screamed Lu Shu.

However, he did not complete his sentence as a gigantic arm appeared behind him and grabbed onto his hind leg violently.

“No!!! Let me go, let me go!” Lu Shu roared crazily as he fiddled with the broken rocks with his front legs, trying hard to get out.

However, the broken rocks immediately turned into dust.

He could not grasp onto them at all.

Boom!

Lu Shu's body was forcefully dragged down by the gigantic hand and was buried in the dust instantly. Only the echoes of the astonished roars were left in the mountain.

“A hand?!”

“There's indeed something at the foot of the Heaven Zen Mountain!”

“What is it? It managed to capture Lu Shu?”

The G.o.dly Beasts and the demons' faces changed. They felt an immense sense of danger and wanted to escape. However, they did not dare to make their move as they were lured by the Source of G.o.d.

“If there's anything, take it out and we will kill him together!”

“That's right!”

“I don't believe that it can kill all of us. There must be opportunities at the foot of the Heaven Zen Mountain, a huge opportunity!”

The G.o.dly Beasts and demons were determined.

Meanwhile, Fang Zhengzhi flew a distance in the sky with Yun Qingwu. That was because the hand was way too big and looked like a hard meteorite that had green patterns all over it.

“Shameless brat, I… I am a little scared…” Ping Yang leaned towards Fang Zhengzhi and Chi Guyan and seemed to be trembling.

“Fly upwards a little more.” Chi Guyan frowned too.

The true ident.i.ty of the hand must be pretty extraordinary in order for it to be able to kill the G.o.dly Beasts so easily. It could probably be the real mastermind of the scheme of the Land of the Source of G.o.d.

However, that was still slightly impossible.

A monster who could kill G.o.dly Beasts beneath the Source of G.o.d?

It sounded impossible.

After all, based on the records on the stone tablet, after the ancient battle, all of the powerful individuals stopped the Cosmic Disaster with Mother Earth and almost everyone was trapped in the galaxy in the sky.

By right, there should not be any powerful monsters in this world.

If there was, why did it not move for so many years?

“Ping Yang, what did you exactly see when you peered at the ‘tree roots'?” Fang Zhengzhi was also very curious.

When they were at the foot of the Heaven Zen Mountain, they were not attacked by any monsters. According to Ping Yang, there was nothing in the tree roots too.

“Nothing? There's nothing at all. Everything is pitch dark and I can't see anything clearly…” Ping Yang shook her head very hard.

“Pitch dark and you can't see anything clearly?!” Fang Zhengzhi and Chi Guyan exchanged gazes and their expressions changed to become one that was extremely serious.

Ping Yang was not lying.

However, it was precisely because they knew that Ping Yang was not lying, this issue became more important. That was because it was really strange for Ping Yang to not be able to see anything at the root of the tree.

After all, Ping Yang had reached the G.o.dly State.

Even someone at the Sagely State had night vision. So what was it that Ping Yang could not see clearly?

Chills went down Fang Zhengzhi's back as he thought about this.

How fortunate!

It was very fortunate!

It was fortunate that Ping Yang, and not any other person, went to take a look at the roots. Or else, the person would probably have gone into the tree roots to look at the details.

Was this the legendary saying that went “fools are blessed”?

“What's wrong, shameless brat, sister Yan, is there anything wrong? There's nothing inside, I couldn't see anything!” Ping Yang insisted.

“It is very strange because you couldn't see anything!” reminded Chi Guyan.

“Couldn't see anything, strange? Ah… Yeah, I should have already had night vision with my Enlightenment State, why can't I see anything?!” Ping Yang finally reacted.

When she managed to make a breakthrough to the G.o.dly State, all she had in mind was to kill some G.o.dly Beasts to practice. When she saw that it was pitch black inside, she thought that there was nothing.

Now that she recalled, she realized that something was wrong.

“Perhaps it's a blessing in disguise, maybe we managed to escape unscathed because of your ‘stupidity'.” Fang Zhengzhi did not blame Ping Yang.

“What do you mean by my ‘stupidity'?!” Ping Yang was annoyed.

Boom!

At this moment, a loud boom was heard from the Heaven Zen Mountain. All the mountain rocks exploded and shot at the G.o.dly Beasts and Demons in the sky.

“Hurry, run!”

“Dodge!”

“Ah…”

The G.o.dly Beasts and Demons fled but some of the demons were still struck by the stones. However, to them, the impact of the stones was not fatal.

However, to the troops of the Four Great Empires who had yet to disperse…

It was fatal.

When the Heaven Zen Mountain collapsed, the troops of the Four Great Empires dashed down the mountain without hesitation.

However, despite that, they still did not manage to avoid the rocks completely.

After all, everything happened too quickly. The mountain rocks collapsed a crushed the troops of the Four Great Empires, causing them to turn into a pile of dead bodies.

The Emperors of the Four Great Empires had their eyes bloodshot.

Nearly half of the tens of thousands of soldiers who were the elites of the empires had died in the pile of mountain rocks. This was extremely unexpected.

They were not killed by the G.o.dly Beasts.

Neither were they killed by the demon race.

However, they were buried under the mountain rocks and a large pile of dead bodies was on the ground, staining the mountain rocks completely red.

This was a battle that had almost wiped out the population before it started.

A mountain collapsed.

As compared to a Cosmic Disaster, it was worse,

“Shameless thief, save them!” Chi Guyan immediately moved and a large number of bright spots turned into a gigantic light screen.

The light screen shrouded the troops of the Four Great Empires like a gemstone.

However, despite that, it was still unable to completely block out all the mountain rocks.

Screams of agony were heard.

Seeing this, Fang Zhengzhi moved without hesitation. Large patches of azure blue light landed and shone through the light screen.

After that, the soldiers who were crushed under the mountain rocks vanished into thin air.

Heavenly Rebirth Dao!

Fang Zhengzhi used the Heavenly Rebirth Dao to send the soldiers down to the bottom of the mountain. However, such a gigantic troop used up the majority of his powers.

After Fang Zhengzhi and Chi Guyan made their moves consecutively, Mu Qingfeng and the rest also moved. Many light screens shone down and protected the troops of the Four Great Empires as they made their evacuation.

All the Emperors of the Four Great Empires cried.

They came all the way to the Heaven Zen Mountain to find some opportunities. However, little did they know that not only did they not manage to find anything, but their Heaven Dao Sage Tablet was “s.n.a.t.c.hed” away.

Only they knew how painful this was.

“Let's run!”

“Run!”

“All to retreat!”

The Emperors of the three great empires shouted.

Lin Mubai had a better time as compared to the others as he was hugged by Qian Yu in midair. However, the troops of the Great Xia Dynasty still suffered great loss.

This time, none of the empires had an advantage.

“Boom!” A loud boom was heard from the sky before a bolt of lightning landed and looked like it was splitting the sky into two.

When the lightning bolt struck the Heaven Zen Mountain, the Heaven Zen Mountain could no longer withstand the impact and was completely destroyed.

Dust flew all over the place.

After that, a large amount of blood light gushed out of the Heaven Zen Mountain. They covered the entire ground like fresh blood.

“What's that?!” At this moment, even Qiong Qi who had swallowed the fruit and had his powers increase tremendously felt the threat. That was because the aura was too violent.

Besides him, Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five, Monster Emperor Baizhi and Hong You also felt stunned. There seemed to be something that scared them greatly in the b.l.o.o.d.y light.

“The murderous aura is really strong!”

“It felt as though it can engulf the entire sky!”

“Is this the opportunity at the foot of the Heaven Zen Mountain?!”

The G.o.dly Beasts and the Generals of the Demon Race were horrified as the b.l.o.o.d.y light was moving extremely quickly towards them.

“Run now!” All of them dashed up into the sky.

However, despite that, some of the slower-moving G.o.dly Beasts and demons were stained by the blood light and made agonizing screams.

Fang Zhengzhi's forehead was covered in sweat.

For this first time in forever, he felt fearful. The intense murderous aura was completely different from a killing intent. It was way more immense and creepy.

It felt as though the air froze.

One's hands and feet became numb and could not move.

His powers had increased by seven to eight times and four-fifth of the Origin Energy in his Small Dimension had turned into ocean.

Yet, he was still affected by the murderous aura. Then what would the other G.o.dly Beasts and demons feel?

“Ah!”

“No, I don't want to die!”

“No…”

As the agonizing screams were heard, the G.o.dly Beasts and demons who were stained by the b.l.o.o.d.y light had their reactions slowed down and they seemed to be stuck in their predicament.

Then, a strange but terrifying scene took place.

The bodies of the G.o.dly Beasts withered extremely quickly. Their flesh vanished and their bones were filled with a deadly aura. Eventually, their bones turned into powder form.

Boom!

At this moment, a gigantic hand stretched out from the b.l.o.o.d.y light and a gigantic ax came out from the ground and sliced the ground and the b.l.o.o.d.y light apart.

It was a gigantic ax that was as red as blood and exuded a terrifying aura. The blood of the G.o.dly Beast was dripping continuously too.
