"Roar!"
"Honk!!"
"Awoo!"
Four terrifying roars of beasts echoed across the Heavenly Demon Plain, the four terrifying auras carrying a world-destroying force, surging towards the long river spanning the void.
The slight power that leaked out had already caused the surrounding Nirvana Realm experts to vomit blood and retreat, their bodies pressed to the ground, unable to move.
Fu Zhu, standing on the long river, raised its eyes to look at the four majestic and ferocious giant beast phantoms above, a dignified look flashing in its agile eyes.
These were the Four Fiend Beasts, existences of equal status to the Four Sacred Beasts in ancient times, even higher in status than them, these divine beasts, being eight primordial beings born with the heavens and earth.
Each one, in its prime, possessed the strength of the Ancestor Realm, something that they, these Reincarnation Realm divine beasts, could not compare with.
If the power of the Four Fiend Beasts had not been suppressed in the Four Demon Halls by this space, Fu Zhu would definitely have turned around and ran without hesitation.
Those were the Four Fiend Beasts, the strongest beings in the Primordial Era. To some extent, the Four Sacred Beasts were slightly inferior in combat power. After all, the Four Fiend Beasts represented the power of battle and slaughter!
But even so, facing the Chaos, Taowu, Taotie, and Qiongqi Four Fiend Beasts at the same time, Fu Zhu only felt that the enormous pressure, like the Primordial Divine Peak carried by Black Tortoise, was pressing down on its weak body.
Qiongqi's scarlet eyes stared at Lin Xuan, who was protected by Fu Zhu and unaffected. Then, it locked onto Fu Zhu. As its huge tiger mouth opened, a monstrous aura of slaughter filled the heavens and the earth.
"Roar! Fu Zhu, do you really think that just because you are a top divine beast, you dare to provoke my majesty? If you don't get out of here, I will kill you until your spirit scatters!"
"Yoo yoo!"
Fu Zhu bleated uneasily twice, but still did not move. Its pair of intelligent eyes stared at the Four Ferocious Beasts in front of it, its whole body tense.
This was not only its Promise to Lin Xuan, but also the loyalty of the most faithful warriors under the Four Sacred Beasts to the four adults! Since Lin Xuan had obtained the unanimous approval of the four adults, then he was the commander of all divine beasts!
"Aww! Courting death!"
Seeing that Fu Zhu did not retreat, Taowu immediately became furious. After roaring, a huge wave of energy instantly swept towards Fu Zhu.
"Yoo yoo!"
Looking at the energy torrent flying straight towards it, Fu Zhu quickly bleated twice. Immediately afterward, a huge water curtain instantly rose from the mid-air long river beneath its feet, forming a water curtain barrier in front of Fu Zhu.
Below, countless Nirvana Realm experts looked at the terrifying exchange with horror. Such power had definitely surpassed the power that the Nirvana Realm could unleash. Perhaps, it had already reached the level of the Life and Death Profound Realm.
A group of spirit beasts and ferocious beasts that had died countless years ago could still unleash such terrifying power with just their remnant spirits. What kind of terrifying strength would these beings have in their prime?
Under everyone's gaze, the astonishing energy torrent finally crashed into the huge water curtain, instantly erupting a very powerful energy ripple.
"Boom!"
The terrifying energy directly exploded on the water curtain, instantly blasting out waves of huge waves. However, it was quickly filled by the constantly surging water flow.
Countless huge waves were blasted into the sky, and then, after dissipating all their power, they turned into endless torrential rain, falling towards the earth.
"Splash!"
Instantly, the torrential rain transformed from countless water waves drenched the entire Heavenly Demon Plain, and also drenched everyone's clothes. However, the good news was that almost all the clothes had already been soaked before, so this torrential rain had no impact.
After the torrential rain fell, countless people stared at the water curtain, and when they saw it slowly descend, revealing the unharmed Fu Zhu and Lin Xuan sitting cross-legged on Fu Zhu's back, many people subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
If Fu Zhu was defeated and Sword Saint was driven away, they had no doubt that with the ferocious and tyrannical nature of the four beasts in front of them, no, five beasts, none of them would survive.
Many people's gazes shifted downwards, looking at the ferocious beast Zhu Yan, which seemed to be curled up and squatting on the ground in front of the Zhu Yan Hall. Gazing at those eyes that flickered with a cruel light, everyone's hearts skipped a beat.
"Aowu!"
Seeing that its attack was actually blocked by Fu Zhu, the arrogant Taowu let out an angry roar. Qiongqi and Taotie also had a hint of anger flashing in their eyes. Although Chaos didn't have any expression in its eyes, the chaotic aura on its body became even more intense.
Clearly, the Four Ferocious Beasts were all somewhat angered that Fu Zhu was able to withstand Taowu's attack.
They thought of how prestigious the Four Ferocious Beasts were in the Primordial Era. Each occupied a territory, and no Sacred Beast dared to bring its subordinates to their door.
In the Ancient Era, the Four Ferocious Beasts joined forces and even instigated a large number of Divine Beasts to rebel. Then, they launched a world-destroying war against the Four Sacred Beasts, even directly causing the Four Sacred Beasts to commit suicide.
Fu Zhu inwardly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Lin Xuan's methods were truly effective, actually being able to help it reunite its bloodline, allowing its remnant soul to still grasp some of the power of rules in this space. Otherwise, it would definitely not have been able to withstand Taowu's attack.
Taowu, also known as Ao Hen, this guy was the most arrogant and ruthless of the Four Ferocious Beasts. When he attacked, it was always a death move.
"..."
A special sound wave suddenly came from within Chaos's body. Immediately afterwards, waves of enormous energy fluctuations emanated from Taowu, Taotie, and Qiongqi.
"Aowu!"
"Roar!"
"Keng!"
As the beast roars rang out, four special rays of light were seen condensing in front of the Four Ferocious Beasts. Immediately afterwards, everyone saw that the four clusters of special light actually transformed into four special Divine Swords.
A dark red Sword of Slaughter, a pitch-black Sword of Tyranny, a gray-black Sword of Greed, and a Chaos-colored Sword of Chaos!
"Clang!!"
As soon as the four swords appeared, an astonishing killing intent instantly enveloped the entire world, causing everyone's faces to turn pale. That terrifying killing intent made the group of Nirvana Realm experts below feel that Death was so close to them.
Fu Zhu looked at the four killing swords condensed from the power of the Four Ferocious Beasts' origins in the sky, and its pupils instantly shrank.
Fu Zhu would never forget these four killing intents. In the Ancient Era, it was these four killing swords that ended the era of Divine Beasts, causing all the Divine Beasts to die within them.
In the end, the four adults took the initiative to dissolve their bodies, suppressing and killing the Four Ferocious Beasts, and burning their own origins to protect the inheritance of most of the Divine Beast bloodlines.
These four swords were said to be a Heaven and Earth Killing Formation, melted from the origins of the Four Ferocious Beasts. During the twilight of the Ancient Divine Beasts, they had an extremely terrifying name—the God Slaying Grand Formation, also known as the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation!
The Immortal Slaughtering, Entrapment Immortal, Slaughter Immortal, and Extinction Immortal Swords. However, this world-destroying killing formation had only appeared once in the Ancient Era. That one time, it split a piece of the world into fragments!
"Yoyo!"
Fu Zhu did not hesitate. All the origins in its bloodline inheritance were mobilized, and endless river water began to gather around Fu Zhu.
"Roar!"
Fu Zhu, who had always chirped, actually burst out with a shocking roar at this moment. In the next moment, an entire enormous river went against the current and surged towards the four peerless killing swords higher up.
It must not let those four swords fall. Otherwise, if Lin Xuan died, the Divine Beast inheritance that the four adults had preserved at the cost of their lives might never have a chance to recover.
"Clang!"
After the four shocking killing swords let out a Sword Cry, they were driven by the Four Ferocious Beasts and directly slashed towards Fu Zhu.
"Hua!!"
The four sharp Swords fell, directly splitting open the surging river water, and relentlessly struck towards Fu Zhu, who was standing in the river. Their momentum suggested they intended to eliminate Fu Zhu, along with the Four Sacred Beasts' inheritance, in one fell swoop.
Fu Zhu looked up at the four murderous Swords descending, gritting its teeth but not retreating a step, the power of its origin constantly surging within its body.
Just as Fu Zhu was preparing to burn its bloodline inheritance and fight to the death, a slightly cool palm suddenly grabbed one of its beast horns. Immediately, Fu Zhu felt that Lin Xuan, who had been sitting on its back, had stood up at this moment.
Lin Xuan looked up at the four murderous Swords, the immense pressure causing the silver hair behind his head to flutter.
"Chirp!"
A Sword Cry suddenly resounded between heaven and earth. Immediately, everyone discovered that the immense pressure that had been suppressing them, rendering them unable to move, had completely dissipated at this moment.
Above the sky, the four enormous phantom images of the Ferocious Beasts, three of them narrowed their eyes, locking onto Lin Xuan's figure, a hint of shock seemingly flashing in their eyes.
"Gather!"
Lin Xuan raised his right hand, forming a Sword Finger in front of him, and lightly uttered a word.
As Lin Xuan's voice echoed, in the next instant, in the void in front of Lin Xuan and Fu Zhu, rays of light emerged.
The light scattered throughout the void, like array patterns. After they were all lit up, countless array patterns were connected by thin lines. Soon, a massive spirit array appeared in the void in front of Lin Xuan and Fu Zhu.
"Buzz!"
As soon as the spirit array appeared, a special wave spread out, blocking the four Ferocious Swords that had arrived before the spirit array.
"Heaven and Earth are boundless, the Four Symbols return to their positions!"
Lin Xuan shouted again, and as he spoke, the hand forming the Sword Finger began to change hand seals. With Lin Xuan's movements, a ray of light suddenly descended from the sky.
"Boom!"
"Screech!"
After the crimson light pillar descended, a massive crimson divine bird, rising with flames, flew out of the light pillar and circled around Lin Xuan.
Below, countless people watched this scene, which could be called a sacred miracle, in stunned silence. No one could have imagined that just as they were about to be defeated, and even Death was about to descend, the Sword Saint would suddenly awaken and turn the tide in one fell swoop!
Lin Xuan continued to change the hand seals in his hand, and then lightly shouted again.
"Spirits of the Four Symbols, Vermilion Bird of the South, return to your position!"
As Lin Xuan's shout fell, the massive crimson divine bird transformed into a massive spirit pattern and entered the grand array. Immediately, it was seen that the array patterns in the southern part of the array seemed to have become different, with a few more special spiritual qualities.
However, this was just the beginning!
After the crimson divine bird appeared, another golden-white light pillar descended, and a pure white divine tiger, carrying gusts of wind, stepped out of the light pillar.
"Roar!"
In the earth-shattering roar, there was a sense of uprightness and awe-inspiring righteousness, causing some people to tremble involuntarily.
"Spirits of the Four Symbols, White Tiger of the West, return to your position!"
After the Sacred Beast White Tiger transformed into a spirit pattern and merged into the grand array, the array patterns on the west side of the array were instantly lit up.
Immediately afterward, another black light pillar fell, the black light pillar was different from the black light on the Four Ferocious Beasts, revealing a magnanimous and dignified aura.
"Ooo!"
After the gentle and soft voice echoed between heaven and earth, an incomparably enormous tortoise-snake spiritual beast stepped out from the pillar of light.
"Boom!"
The moment that enormous tortoise-snake divine beast stepped onto the earth, the entire ground couldn't help but tremble. However, what was astonishing was that although the earth shook incessantly, the surrounding peaks of the plain did not show the slightest sign of shaking, as if, at that moment, the entire earth was connected together.
"The spirit of the Four Symbols, the Black Tortoise of the North, return to your place!"
Above the sky, Taotie, Taowu, Qiongqi, and the 'invisible' Chaos, were all quietly watching Lin Xuan below, watching that enormous Black Tortoise Sacred Beast phantom, transform into spiritual patterns, and merge into the grand formation.
"Roar!"
As the fourth azure-green pillar of light descended, a shocking dragon's roar instantly resounded throughout the entire heaven and earth. Immediately afterwards, a massive Azure Dragon, winding and coiling in the void, gazed at the Four Ferocious Beasts opposite.
The moment that massive Azure Dragon appeared, clouds of mist continuously gathered in the heaven and earth.
And Qing Zhi, the Azure Dragon King, far away in the Azure Dragon Hall of the Northwest region, stood up abruptly at this moment, gazing towards the Northeast region, with an unbelievable look in his eyes. The ten-thousand-foot Azure Dragon beneath his feet seemed to tremble slightly subconsciously.
Qing Zhi never imagined that someone would actually be able to find the inheritance of the ancient Sacred Beast Azure Dragon!
That was the ancient Sacred Beast Azure Dragon. In the past, Qing Zhi was just a mixed-blood dragon clan member. It was because he obtained a trace of the Sacred Beast Azure Dragon's legacy in this ancient space that he created the Azure Heaven Dragon Transformation Art, thus being able to achieve today's accomplishments.
To some extent, Qing Zhi should be considered a disciple of the Sacred Beast Azure Dragon.
Qing Zhi's title of Azure Dragon King is actually a tribute to the Sacred Beast Azure Dragon. The king among the dragon clan is called Dragon King, and Qing is the title!
