A thousand-feet high tsunami clearly drawn by the towering golden ship, a magical treasure, headed straight for Demon City.
The sea was a crimson red, layers of corpses piled up, and resentnt soaring into the skies.
Tens of thousands of human clan cultivators and demons, just like Tao Qian, had their eyes locked onto the person on the golden ship.
He appeared to be a young male cultivator in his thirties, tall and thin, with a gaunt appearance. Dressed in blue robes and wearing a scholar's square scarf, his eyes cunning like those of a sly fox. Anyone who looked at his face and witnessed his actions would angrily proclaim, "What a malevolent scholar!"
Much like another encounter Tao Qian had in Southern Yue with an alchemist saint child, Qin Wuxiang, this man was also from the Cavernous Mystery Realm.
But his thods were even more ruthless and clever than those of Qin Wuxiang.
Hearing Shan Jiu's story, Tao Qian had already realized the cause of this horrifying scene:
"Huang Chong is quite skilled and had prepared well for the 'blood sacrifice.'"
"Besides the four million disaster-stricken populace, he transported so remnants from beyond the southern borders of the Longevity Heavenly Dynasty."
"Such remnants, mostly relocated outside of Longevity Heavenly Dynasty due to wars, plagues, and other disasters, appear not to be citizens of Tian Chao, but they share the sa bloodline and could completely deceive the Mountain and River Map."
"After Tianjiang Immortal intervened, Huang Chong imdiately began slaughtering these remnants. Shan Jiu, by chance, had infiltrated a transport team of the Changchun Society and was thus able to return early to report."
"Within that tsunami, there were corpses of 1.8 million remnants, and due to the mistreatnt they suffered while alive, the resentnt source qi emitted was enough to rival the density when four million disaster victims were killed."
"With these millions of corpses replacing the disaster victims for the blood sacrifice, it was enough for Ling Qi to refine the Mountain and River Map."
This realization dawned not only on Tao Qian.
Everyone present had co to understand, especially in the next mont.
Huang Chong, standing on the golden ship, voluntarily started to boast of his achievents:
"Your Highness, proceed swiftly in refining the treasure."
"Do not be tender-hearted and soft; how can you achieve sainthood without sacrifices, without any cost?"
"Should anyone here wish to stop you, Your Highness, just comnce a massacre."
Huang Chong's words struck directly at Ling Qi's spirit.
This Ninth Prince of the current dynasty had completely lost his sanity.
He stepped towards the Heaven Rank, laughing maniacally as he went:
"Good, very well said."
"I am the Saint Sovereign, and all who dare obstruct shall die."
As his laughter echoed, within the realms of Demon City, brutal scenes began to unfold without any warning.
The "Ancestor God Radiance", which initially could only drag people, seed to transform into a light of slaughter due to the right mont.
Thunderous explosions resounded, and tens of thousands of cultivators and demons were immobilized.
Starting from those with the lowest cultivation, one after another began to endure the attacks of the Mountain and River Map.
Each beam of light was mountainous.
Those who could not withstand it would burst into death with a "boom."
Blood and flesh fireworks!
Thus, they unfolded everywhere in Demon City.
Tao Qian, having directly bypassed this ordeal, was naturally unafraid.
Especially since he was currently enduring his second tribulation and receiving blessings from the Heavenly Venerate, no one could harm him.
Tao Qian stood there, watching the continuous bursts of blood and flesh fireworks, the drifting black snow, the flauntingly flashing Death Star, the white bones spewing from the Earth Orifice, and layers of resentful corpses approaching... Suddenly, as if realizing sothing, Tao Qian vaguely felt that he had uncovered another significant secret.
"Mountain and River Map, Sheji Seal, these kinds of treasures spawned from the fragnts of the Ancestor God Forbidden Technique."
"To refine them, blood sacrifices and the like are perhaps just appearances."
"The real condition: a chaotic world triggered by demons causing people to suffer unbearably, with continuous anomalies."
"To so extent, it's practically imitating that Ancestor Emperor who swept across the wilderness, seizing control from demons, aliens, transcendents, and other species that viewed the human clan as re two-legged sheep."
With these realizations, not only did the rage in Tao Qian's eyes not diminish, but it also surged ever higher.
He understood what was just appearances, and considering Ling Qi and Zhang Jiudeng who had the treasure map, they must have known from the start.
"These two beasts, knowing that the conditions to refine the exotic treasure were not ripe."
"So, without the conditions, they created their own to refine."
"My sweet rain... truly malevolent."
Tao Qian was cursing furiously in his heart when Tianjiang Immortal flew into a rage.
This Ultimate Happiness Cultivator, who had originally planned to return to the Secret Realm of All People, saw the tsunami strike, corpses surging into the boundaries of Demon City, and the stench of death and resentnt crazily spreading, his expression imdiately turned solemn.
"You audacious scoundrels!"
Tianjiang Immortal roared angrily, about to cast a spell.
But before he could act, the completely crazed Ling Qi suddenly pulled sothing from his bosom and threw it directly towards the location of the Secret Realm of All People.
It was a pitch-black bead, as large as a baby's head.
Hanging above the secret realm, it started to spin erratically.
Extrely dazzling and unstable Demon Light surged wildly; the bead... seed on the verge of self-destruction?
Alarming qi swept across Demon City.
Simultaneously, Ling Qi's twisted screams echoed.
"Old Tianjiang, take a look, what is this?"
"Taishang Heavenly Demon Pearl!"
Just as he was about to take action to kill Huang Chong, Tianjiang Immortal had to pause, frowning.
With his status and cultivation, he imdiately recognized the origin of the treasure bead.
One of the renowned magical treasures of the Taishang Demon Sect.
Sowhat similar to the Nine Toad Bead, it could be part of a set or used separately.
This one, clearly belonged to Taishang Demon Saint True Monarch Lingwa.
But unexpectedly, even against such a ferocious opponent as Kongchan Arhat, Lingwa had still left this treasure to his son.
And Ling Qi's thod of using it was extrely brutal.
"Old Tianjiang, your Primordial Sect's Sealing Spirit Forbidden Technique is quite formidable, but it absolutely cannot withstand the self-destruction of the 'Taishang Heavenly Demon Pearl'."
