Chapter 888 -882 Eve of the Great War: Nine Beast Spiritual Mechanism
The dark clouds loom menacingly over the city, threatening to crush it. Although there are no dark clouds in the Abandoned Land, the tense atmosphere before the impending great battle still makes countless creatures in the gathering place feel uneasy.
Many violent and reckless individuals wear their emotions on their sleeves. If anyone dares to provoke them, a fierce beating ensues to vent their restless feelings.
As the great battle approaches, many creatures have secluded themselves in their homes, not daring to venture out. While there’s been a reduction in skirmishes, the heavy-handed actions of these irritable individuals have instead caused the mortality rate to soar!
The reason for this is that the Demon Clan found their schemes foiled and have openly planned a forceful entry into the Extreme Abyss gathering place!
Their objectives are clear, and the challenge letter has already been delivered to Bato Demon King!
Indeed, the target chosen by the Demon Clan for this battle is Bato, the demon from the Abyss!
The Demon Clan includes wise individuals, and among them are cunning old demons, insidious and treacherous.
Though irritated by the handful of idiotic demons who, for reasons unknown, senselessly leaked their plans, they have been forced to choose a frontal assault, which will result in considerable losses, even if victorious.
But these beings are not rash; they cleverly selected one opponent, thereby avoiding a two-front battle against both Bato Demon King and the Angel Divine Clan.
As long as it is not a two-front war, given their strength and the power expanded by subjugating and absorbing monsters and Demon Gods from various realms over the years, they truly fear no opponent!
They avoided choosing the seemingly weaker Light God Clan as their target and instead aimed at the more ferocious Bato Demon King because of the chaotic power under this Abyss demon. Once war breaks out, it will offer them numerous opportunities!
Unlike the Light Temple’s angels, who strictly adhere to the hierarchy and commands, facing no dissent when orders are given.
Even though the Angel Divine Clan, trapped in the Abandoned Land, now numbers only tens of thousands, they remain mighty and elite. Under the command of the ten-winged archangel, they would bravely charge through even a mountain of swords and a sea of fire!
The angel army’s warriors are already tough to handle, not to mention the multitude of powerful individuals from various realms they’ve gathered under their banner.
Even though powers other than the Light Type, like the White Dragon, are not heavily relied upon, their sheer numbers make them a formidable force nonetheless.
Thus, after discussing among the powerful Demon Immortals of the Demon Clan, they unanimously set Bato Demon King as their primary target.
Should the Demon King’s power prove too formidable to resist, they’d then consider dealing with the slightly weaker individual combat power of Archangel Di Jia!
This day, hulking and fierce demon creatures marched down the streets, converging outside the gathering place.
Bato Demon King’s forces are extremely chaotic, maintaining the brutal Abyssal rules even within the Abandoned Land, with fierce internal struggles.
And this Demon King accepts all creatures who come to pledge allegiance to him, yet most become mere outer members, rank-and-file subordinates, with very few catching the Demon King’s discerning eye.
The streets are filled with chaotic footsteps. Do not expect these demons from various races to maintain any semblance of order and march with precision; it’s quite remarkable if they don’t start fighting amongst themselves over minor disputes on the way!
With Bato Demon King’s demonic army moving out, the streets suddenly cleared, and the once bustling scenes disappeared in no time.
Except for a few exceptionally powerful beings who dared to watch openly, the rest of the creatures hid back in their domains, glancing stealthily through cracks in their doors.
Very few creatures dared to appear in front of this demon army at this time; otherwise, if some powerful being found them displeasing and decided to slay them for a sacrifice or have a blood feast to replenish strength before the battle, such things were very likely to happen.
After all, the past demon army had committed such acts quite frequently!
For a time, only demons under Bato Demon King’s command filled the streets, from the weakest among them used as cannon fodder, the Little Demons, to the hulking double-headed demons wielding flails, or Flame Demons cloaked in red armor and dark red flames, the Illusion Demons with shifting phantom forms, Shadow Demons cloaked and hiding behind other demons, and the Snake Demons covered in scales of various colors with forked tongues hissing constantly, and Winged Demons flying low with devil wings spread…
All kinds, endless variety!
Countless demon species appeared in the streets, marching grandly outside the gathering place.
Their ranks even included numerous massive and terrifyingly-looking demon beasts, each more savage and seemingly stronger than many demons!
At this time, the Hellhound transformed into a humanoid form, wearing half-body chain armor. Its three fearsome dog heads occasionally looked around while carrying a thighbone of some unknown monster on its shoulder. This enormous bone had dozens of monster fangs irregularly embedded into it, used as a wolf fang club!
It’s unknown which of Bato Demon King’s subordinates skilled in crafting Demon Artifacts assisted it in refining this weapon. This item looked quite shabby, yet in its grasp, combined with its three vicious dog heads and muscularly robust form, was utterly intimidating.
It did not march with the regular demons but mingled amongst a group of formidable beings.
The three-headed Hellhound is inherently a very powerful creature, and after being cultivated by Qin Feng for many years, merging various bloodlines, and training in the Heavenly Dog Clan’s Cultivation Technique, its combat prowess far surpasses comparable demon beasts of its rank.
Even having concealed its Heavenly Dog Clan techniques, not exerting full force in past battles, its ferocity still intimidated quite a few demons!
More importantly, the Hellhound, at the time of pledging loyalty to Bato Demon King, already possessed a realm comparable to the Peak of Middle Rank God. Later, for uncovering the Demon Clan’s covert intrigues and calculating plans for war between Bato Demon King and the Angel Divine Clan, it gained considerable favor from the Bato Demon King.
Despite his brutal nature, Bato Demon King is quite generous towards subordinates showcasing great merit, rewarding it directly from his treasure vault with numerous treasures, including a Divine Status of an Upper Demon God!
After consuming these treasures, the Hellhound firmly elevated its cultivation by a notch, overcoming its shackles, and with the Heavenly Dog Clan’s Guardian Technique as its foundation, achieved the Profound Immortal realm!
Of course, externally it declared advancement to Upper Divine Spirit!
It is the fourth Lifebound Spirit Beast under Qin Feng to achieve the Profound Immortal.
The other three are the Life Tree, Divine Turtle, and Spring and Autumn Cicada!
The Life Tree, having merged with the World Tree and the Golden Apple Tree—the strongest Spirit Roots from high-level worlds—alongside other miraculous tree species like the War Ancient Tree, stands as a Spirit Root Divine Tree with huge potential, even in Biluo!
Thus, for it, no major bottlenecks exist until the Immortal Realm, unlike the World Tree and the Golden Apple, constrained from birth, hindering the awakening of Spiritual Intelligence. The Life Tree’s Spiritual Intelligence is complete, with the Laws within the Life Spring to guide it, making it the first under Qin Feng to advance to the Profound Immortal!
Next is the Divine Turtle.
Although after ascending, Qin Feng could no longer merge it with other Spiritual Turtles’ Bloodline Divine Powers to give it enormous short-term benefits like before, the solid foundation established early on, combined with its unique Innate Divine Ability, provided it with an intuitive sense for treasures and resources that could enhance its strength.
In the past few years, while assisting Qin Feng in managing the Ten Thousand Demons Pavilion’s business, it managed to exchange numerous beneficial treasures from many powerful beings. With the accumulation of various resources, it became the second existence under Qin Feng to advance to the Profound Immortal.
The third was the Spring and Autumn Cicada, which was constantly clutching the Time Wand, determined not to rest until it had absorbed it completely. With the assistance of such a large amount of Power of Time and Time Principle, the Spring and Autumn Cicada did not encounter any major bottlenecks.
Originally, Qin Feng assumed that the third of his subordinates to advance to Profound Immortal would be the Three-legged Death Crow, considering that he had given it the Origin Divine Object, Abyss Evil Water, obtained from the Great Light Temple.
However, Qin Feng ultimately underestimated the difficulty of advancing to Profound Immortal. He assumed that since he had ascended easily, his Spiritual Beasts would do the same.
In reality, regardless of the Realm, it becomes a significant checkpoint on the path of cultivation, and every bottleneck would hinder more than half of all life forms, a situation that becomes more apparent with higher Realms.
Thus, even though his nine Main Spirit Beasts had each merged with various Bloodline Divine Powers, each being a formidable existence, whether they could advance to Profound Immortal depended on chance!
Of course, if Qin Feng were to share his insights into the various Laws with them, it would also increase their chances of ascending.
However, the Demon Refining Pot was his Lifebound Immortal Artifact, and he could easily probe the minds of his Main Spirit Beasts, yet they were unable to infiltrate Qin Feng’s spirit with their Divine Sense, only receiving some help whenever Qin Feng had spare time.
Although the Three-legged Death Crow had not yet advanced, Qin Feng was not overly concerned. Its slow progress was merely due to the malevolence of the Abyss Evil Water, which was not as easily refined as other Origin Divine Objects; each refining could only be done cautiously in small amounts.
Yet, with accumulation over time, it would sooner or later refine more Abyss Evil Water, gain its Origin Qi, and ascend.
Another who spared Qin Feng worry was the Swallowing Sky Toad.
This fellow, though not yet advanced, had achieved the Heavenly Immortal Peak and had pretended to be loyal to the Demon Clan for years, but was in fact devouring all kinds of life under their name.
Over these years, countless elites had been swallowed by it, all becoming the accumulation for its ascension to Profound Immortal, just waiting for the day when it had accumulated enough to break through the barrier!
As for the White Dragon, it was still held in high regard in the Light Temple, but since it was not of Angel Divine Clan descent, there was still a barrier of separation.
Plus, the Light resources in the Abandoned Land were limited. Although the Archangel Di Jia generously rewarded Cynthia for acquiring Demon Clan intelligence, he was unwilling to grant White Dragon the Crystal Core left by an old comrade, instead gifting other treasures and Divine Artifacts as compensation.
This left the White Dragon feeling quite dejected, as its gains were evidently less than the Hellhound, which had been rewarded by the Demon King and ascended to Profound Immortal, making it feel a significant disparity.
It thus began praying for the war to break out soon, as its master had promised to obtain the Crystal Core of a Ten-winged Angel to ensure its cultivation resources.
After all, besides the extraordinarily powerful Archangel Di Jia, there were several other Ten-winged Archangels in the Light Temple. Even if they couldn’t defeat Di Jia, could they not handle other Upper Divine Spirit Realm Ten-winged Angels? ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
As for the remaining Phoenix and Ghost-Faced Spider, it was truly a matter of luck.
Fortunately, for true powerhouses, the Abandoned Land was also a treasure trove of opportunities.
Here, not only were strong beings from the Ten Thousand Worlds gathered, but also different treasures and resources from each realm. Qin Feng, during his years in the gathering place, didn’t merely help his senior sister hold fort; while amassing wealth, he also scouted for anything that could aid his subordinates in improving their cultivation.
Relatively speaking, the Ghost-Faced Spider had the greatest chance of advancing, because the Abyss was filled with Abyss Demons, among which many powerful Demon Gods shared attributes similar to the Ghost-Faced Spider.
If this battle could not gather treasures to assist in its advancement, Qin Feng would personally take action next to slay other Upper Demon Gods to aid its ascension.
The situation of the Undying Qingluan was rather special. Through constant purification of its Bloodline over years of cultivation, the Bloodline Power within its body became purer and purer.
The fusion of Qingluan Phoenix Blood with the Phoenix Bloodline inheritance made it count as a new race. By incorporating the Phoenix’s legacy into its cultivation, it caused slight deviations in its original cultivation path.
Qin Feng was greatly concerned for his Spiritual Beast subordinates. To aid the Undying Qingluan’s advancement, he went to the extent of sending strong forces under his senior sister’s name, offering great benefits, to gather intelligence from other gathering places.
Recently, a strong being returned, claiming to have discovered a Heavenly Phoenix at Upper Divine Spirit Realm in another gathering place!
This Heavenly Phoenix, born in some peculiar world, had a similar appearance to a Phoenix but with a sinister aura, vicious and violent. Yet its Lifebound Spiritual Fire had unique qualities, which, if fused by the Undying Qingluan, could greatly benefit it.
The only pity was that the Heavenly Phoenix was in another far distant gathering place and was also the leader of a Great Force with many strong subordinates, making it tough to deal with.
More so, Qin Feng didn’t wish to make too many enemies before solving the Demon Clan’s troubles, so he temporarily shelved this plan, intending to revisit the matter after concluding the current affairs.
The reason Qin Feng was so eager to cultivate all nine of his Main Spirit Beasts to Profound Immortal Realm powerhouses was because he sensed the potential of advancing to the Peak of Profound Immortal Realm.
He realized that to advance further to Half-Step Immortal, he needed to draw more insights from his Spirit Beasts’ experiences.
If they were too weak, it wouldn’t meet his requirements.
In the Heavenly Snake Palace, Qin Feng and Liu Xuanling stood atop the hall, quietly observing the formidable Demon powerhouses’ army passing through the streets ahead.
After the entire demon army had passed, the previously serene and quiet gathering place unknowingly began to experience some turmoil, with many powerhouses of various forces covertly appearing in the distance, obviously wanting to spectate from afar to see the final outcome.
Even several large forces, confident in their strength, began to stir slightly, considering taking action amid the Demon Clan’s challenge to the Barto Demon King.
If the Barto Demon King suffered severe injuries in this battle, they might find an opportunity to seize Barto’s base and occupy that core area.
So although no battles had broken out in the gathering place, beneath the calm surface, many schemes were brewing, and various forces were covertly deploying and preparing!
The two watched until the silhouettes of several major forces’ leaders disappeared into the distance, whereby Qin Feng quietly laughed and turned to Liu Xuanling, “Senior sister, we should take action too!”
