Chapter 718: Massacre

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Everyone realized that only by killing the Fire Domain’s Beast Kings could they continue to advance. The increase from killing one of the Fire Domain’s Beast Kings was most likely higher than killing a thousand Pinnacle Beast Kings.

Mo Wen and Nangong Mingzhu’s auras right now already made it hard for some of the human ancient martial art practitioners to breathe. Even the Fire Bull Beast King was shocked right now, let alone the human ancient martial art practitioners. The cultivation of these two human ancient martial art practitioners was actually almost catching up to its own.

Just the thought that the two of them had killed the more powerful Giant Crocodile Beast King sent a shiver down the Fire Bull Beast King’s spine. It was weaker than the Giant Crocodile Beast King. Against two even more powerful human ancient martial art practitioners, as well as the group of human ancient martial art practitioners surrounding it, how could it possibly escape alive?

The Fire Bull Beast King indeed had no way to escape alive. With Nangong Mingzhu’s replica Crimson Moon Demonic Tower and Mo Wen’s Heavenly Serpent Divine Spear, it had no chance of escape. It was turned to dust by the two absolute powers. The whole process only took a few breaths.

Starlight shone. After killing the Fire Bull Beast King, an uncountable amount of starlight surged out. Large amounts of the light surrounded both Mo Wen and Nangong Mingzhu. There were more than ten other very small clumps of starlight that surged towards the other human ancient martial art practitioners that surrounded the Fire Bull Beast King. Both Mo Wen and Nangong Mingzhu’s light masses were the largest, followed by Chu Yuan and Tan Qiyue’s, and then the rest of the human ancient martial art practitioners that had reached the Martial Arts Grandmaster third realm.

Having gone through another baptism of starlight, Mo Wen’s cultivation increased by another large amount. Right now, even he could not tell what level his cultivation was at. It had certainly far surpassed the Martial Arts Grandmaster third realm and was already even comparable to a mythical beast such as the Fire Bull Beast King.

However, even though he had such strong and deep cultivation, Mo Wen was still at the Martial Arts Grandmaster Realm. It was impossible for him to reach the Primordial Soul Realm. The difference between the two realms was absolute. One could not surpass the differences through this method.

Originally, under normal circumstances, once human ancient martial art practitioners reached the Martial Arts Grandmaster third realm, their cultivation would not improve anymore. It became almost completely stagnant and further improvement would be incredibly difficult. But here, the Tower Spirit had completely changed this rule, causing the human ancient martial art practitioner’s Inner Qi cultivation to still be able to advance after reaching the Martial Arts Grandmaster third realm. There seemed to be no upper limit.

A bolt of lightning flashed and Mo Wen’s aura was unprecedentedly powerful. Standing in mid-air, he was like a mythical beast in human form. If he appeared in the outside world now, he would certainly shake the entire ancient martial arts world.

It was the same for Nangong Mingzhu. Her aura had reached a mysterious and powerful stage. If she encountered the Giant Crocodile Beast King again, she would most likely be able to kill it easily.

Mo Wen and Nangong Mingzhu benefited the most but Chu Yuan and Tan Qiyue also benefited a lot. Their cultivation improved greatly, showing obvious increments from that of before. Even those humans who were at the Martial Arts Grandmaster third realm had broken through the limit of Martial Arts Grandmaster third realm one by one, reaching a greater height.

Mo Wen and Nangong Mingzhu looked at each other. As expected, the starlight produced by the Fire Domain’s Beast Kings was different from normal starlight. Although these human ancient martial art practitioners did not absorb much, their increments were very large, many times more effective than that of ordinary Beast Kings.

After the Fire Bull Beast King died, dazzling lights suddenly filled the sky. A few masses of light appeared in mid-air. They were the rewards for killing the Fire Bull Beast King. There were six masses of light, just one fewer than the rewards for killing the Giant Crocodile Beast King.

Mo Wen waved his hand and a mass of light flew into it. It was a small red flag with a beautiful firebird carved on it. It was the mythical beast, the Vermillion Bird. Needless to say, this was the Vermillion Bird Flag, the final flag for the Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem.

Right now, the four flags of the Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem had finally been gathered. Mo Wen had not expected that the flags for the Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem would appear in such a manner. The complete set of flags had only appeared after they killed all four of the Fire Domain’s Beast Kings. Clearly, this Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem would only be useful when they proceeded to the third stage.

Once the Vermillion Bird Flag appeared in his hand, it immediately became a beam of red light that flew into the air. The next moment, the Azure Dragon Flag, White Tiger Flag, and Black Tortoise Flag on him all flew out as well. They flew up into the sky, coming together with the Vermillion Bird Flag as they released beams of spiritual treasure light.

Information suddenly appeared in Mo Wen’s mind. It was knowledge about how to use the Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem and other related information.

“So that’s how it is.” A look of glee flashed in his eyes. He took a deep breath. He finally understood the use of the Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem and why they had appeared in such a manner.

The Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem was a challenge supporting item given to the human ancient martial art practitioners by the Tower Spirit. The stratagem would only be used in the third stage: it could not be used in the first two stages at all. It was also the reason why the complete set of the Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem only appeared after they killed the four Fire Domain’s Beast Kings in the first two stages. If the human ancient martial art practitioners could not even pass the first two stages, naturally the Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem would not be needed.

Mo Wen frowned. The Tower Spirit had given this Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem in the third stage as a supporting treasure. From this, they could tell that the third stage would be far more difficult than they had imagined. The situation most likely would not give them any cause for optimism.

After he took the Vermillion Bird Flag, Mo Wen did not look at any of the other items. Without any lingering affection, he turned and left, leaving the rest of the rewards to the others. He already had enough good items on him. He did not need to challenge for more. The more treasures the other human ancient martial art practitioners could get, the more they could contribute later on.

Nangong Mingzhu glanced at the remaining treasures. She pointed her finger and a red light appeared in her hand. She also only took one item. However, she had taken a superb grade Healing Light. It could be said to be the most valuable of all the items there.

However, nobody dared to say anything. After all, the Fire Bull Beast King’s death had depended mostly on Nangong Mingzhu’s and Mo Wen’s contributions. Furthermore, with her current cultivation, nobody dared to fight her.

“We will not take any. May the two of you please take the rest. We only hope that in the third stage, everyone can work together and give it their all.”

Gao Hanshan saluted at Tan Qiyue and Chu Yuan with his fists, not looking at the items at all. He turned and left, flying towards the sea of Beast Kings below. He had to immediately return, hoping that nothing had happened to the members of the Gao Clan.

Granny Jin Hua and the other third realm Martial Arts Grandmasters responded in the same way as Gao Hanshan. None of them took anything and they turned and left. They knew that in this game, they could only play a very small role. Only a few people could be called the main force. They were not qualified to fight over resources with them. In comparison, putting resources in their hands was an absolute waste from the overall perspective.

Therefore, even though Gao Hanshan did not see eye to eye with Chu Yuan, he did not fight him for the rewards now. If it hadn’t have been for Chu Yuan and Tan Qiyue’s astonishing powers and their ability to block the Fire Bull Beast King’s power, the rest of them would not have the ability to hold off this ferocious beast at all.

Only by pooling their resources in the hands of the strongest few did they have a slight hope of making it through the third stage.

Wang Changhan cast a longing glance at the few masses of light floating in mid-air. He was not happy, but like the others knew not to fight over them. Even if he dared to challenge for the rewards, he most likely would not succeed. He could only helplessly turn and return to the Ming Temple faction.

“We each get two.” Chu Yuan glanced at Tan Qiyue. With a wave of his sleeves, Chu Yuan picked up two masses of light. He then turned around and left.

Tan Qiyue kept the last two masses of light. All the rewards dropped after killing the Fire Bull Beast King were now distributed.

With a flash of lightning, Mo Wen appeared in mid-air above the sea of Beast Kings. An utmost powerful aura emanated from his body. All the Beast Kings within the radius of a thousand meters trembled in fear. The beasts’ limbs went weak and they fell to the ground. It was as though a spell had been cast into their minds. The beasts did not have any inclination to resist.

The human ancient martial art practitioners seized the opportunity and killed as many Beast Kings as they could. A massacre took place at the area where Mo Wen was. The cultivation of a large group of human ancient martial art practitioners improved drastically, climbing up realm after realm.

Immediately, even the human ancient martial art practitioners who were far away headed towards Mo Wen’s position.

The Heavenly Serpent Divine Spear flashed with silver light. Immediately, thunder roared and lightning flashed. The skies were filled with lightning as thick as a man’s arm. The lightning crashed down on the Beast Kings below. Each blast was enough to severely injure a Beast King.

Rumble!

A huge rumble sounded. Even Beast Kings who were slightly further out fell to the ground, one after another. But these Beast Kings were only severely injured and were not dead. A few human ancient martial art practitioners immediately pounced forward, beating up the fallen foes and easily killing those severely injured Beast Kings.

As time passed, the death rate of the Beast Kings rose significantly. After the defeat of the Fire Domain’s Beast Kings, the sea of Beast Kings was in complete chaos. They tried to escape in all directions, no longer being able to amass an effective battle formation.

Light tools appeared one by one in mid-air. The more Beast Kings died, the more light tools appeared. Aside from light tools, there were also various talismans. Occasionally, they would even drop one or two magical treasures. Large amounts of treasure floated in mid-air like raindrops.

Mo Wen did not fight over the treasures with the human ancient martial art practitioners. The items dropped by these Beast Kings were already meaningless to him.

“Congratulations to the human ancient martial art practitioners for successfully passing the second stage. The third stage will commence shortly. You have fifteen minutes to prepare.” The voice of the Tower Spirit sounded from the void.

Fifteen minutes was enough for the human ancient martial art practitioners to kill many more Beast Kings. Mo Wen, Nangong Mingzhu, Chu Yuan and the others joined the ranks of those depleting the power of the Beast Kings, increasing the cultivation of all human ancient martial art practitioners to the highest possible level.

Pei Fengwu waved her long sword, diligently killing Beast Kings. The surrounding Beast Kings were all lambs to the slaughter. All she had to do was strike.

Her cultivation soared. In a short while, she rose from the Martial Arts Grandmaster first realm to the Martial Arts Grandmaster second realm, and then once again headed towards the Martial Arts Grandmaster third realm.

She occasionally took time to look at the tall figure in the sky, towering over them like a god. Her heart was filled with an unprecedented sense of awe.

Fifteen minutes passed. All the human ancient martial art practitioners were killing until they lost themselves. Suddenly, they discovered that there was already a change happening in their surroundings.

Time and space shifted. Everyone discovered that they had appeared in a vast ocean.
