Chapter 789: Divine Ability, Incinerate the Heavens and Boil the Seas
"Devouring All Things Manual! It can consume all sorts of heavenly treasures, demon bloodlines, exotic flowers and plants, even otherworldly spirits! The more it devours, the stronger the physical body becomes, and the more astonishing the innate talent! After mastering this technique, things that were devoured in the past can also be nourished! Memories can be revived from what was devoured, turning into one's own power! The Human Volume focuses on cultivating from the Body Tempering Stage to the Nascent Soul Stage, while the Heaven Volume focuses on cultivating from the Yuan Infant Stage to the Tribulation Crossing Stage!"
After silently reading this introduction, He Yi Ming couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
The records at the Heavenly Dao Academy about the demon race had mentioned their cultivation system being based on the survival of the fittest.
The strong would consume the weak, turning the weak's flesh and blood into their own power. This aspect was quite similar to the behavior of demonic beasts!
Having experienced the Primordial Era, Ancient Era, and even the Lost Era, He Yi Ming had a vague understanding.
The incredibly powerful ancient demon beasts from the abundant Primordial Era were the ancestors of the demon race and demonic beasts in his own era.
In the era of Immortal Emperors, most resources were divided among the human race. With the appearance of Immortal Emperors, humans reached their pinnacle period, causing many incredibly powerful ancient demon beasts to choose to leave.
However, in the Lost Era, these 733 odd races often had the bloodlines of powerful ancient demon beasts flowing within them. They lived together with humans who had also escaped the disaster. Their descendants...
It was likely they were the demon race! Therefore, the million or so humans and other races that He Yi Ming had sent away using the Five-Colored Lotus were designated as ancestors of the demon race by the system!
"What a great thing!" He Yi Ming secretly marveled.
Although the Devouring All Things Manual could also be practiced by humans and demons, its effects could only be maximized by the demon race.
As for the Alchemy Manual...
There was no need to ask!
It was definitely a great treasure!
In this way, He Yi Ming possessed the Formation Manual, Artifact Manual, and Alchemy Manual, the three foundational books.
"Ding!"
"System upgrade task completed! This system is about to be upgraded to Version 4.0 of the Ultimate Sect System!"
"The upgrade will take seven days!"
"During this period, all system functions will be suspended, and the connection to the otherworldly souls cannot be maintained!"
"Please be aware that once confirmed, you can proceed with the upgrade!"
"Friendship reminder: After the system upgrade is complete, the fourth summoning of otherworldly souls can be performed. The maximum number of people will be 100,000! Greater selection space! Also, a brand-new race template selection will be opened, the demon race!"
"More new features will be gradually introduced during the upgrade process!"
At this moment, the prompts from the system made He Yi Ming nod in satisfaction.
However, He Yi Ming didn't upgrade immediately because...
There were still many enemies before him!
"Be careful, Brother Ming!"
"Darn it, so many enemies. Can Brother Ming handle them?"
"Brother Ming, the situation isn't right. Let's run for now!"
...
Many players exclaimed in shock. After all, the current number of demon enemies was overwhelmingly high!
Even if it was Brother Ming, who had just teleported and had expended most of his strength, facing such a massive tide of demons...
Would he be able to hold on?
"He Yi Ming? Is he the He Yi Ming that Demon Lord Mo Shi Tian ordered to be killed?"
"Hehe, the leader of the Flame Yellow Sect? Once he's killed, everything will come to an end!"
"That's right, although his physical body is strong, he's only at the Sixth Order level! Let's kill him first!"
...
Many demon warriors were slightly surprised at first, but then they immediately started moving toward He Yi Ming.
After all, Demon Lord Mo Shi Tian had come specifically to kill He Yi Ming and wipe out the Flame Yellow Sect. Eliminating the other million or so survivors of the sect was a secondary objective.
Now that the survivors had escaped, even if they managed to kill the other Flame Yellow Sect disciples, it wouldn't earn them much credit.
On the contrary, if they could kill He Yi Ming, they might earn more merit by performing well in the subsequent events. This might even pave the way for them to become the next Demon Lord, Demon Lord Mo Shi Tian!
"Kill!!!" Thus, most of the demon warriors and demonic beasts turned their attention to He Yi Ming.
After all, killing a little disciple of the Flame Yellow Sect might not earn much merit, but killing the highest commander on the enemy's side would be a different story!
At this moment, He Yi Ming raised his right hand and smiled faintly as he faced the surging tide of demon enemies.
"Divine Ability!"
"Incinerate the Heavens and Boil the Seas!!!"
...
As He Yi Ming's whispered words echoed, the earth within a hundred-mile radius instantly cracked open, revealing a boundless trench beneath!
Countless trenches emerged and formed what seemed like a vast, endless sea of flames, like a massive, black net covering the land!
The sky was completely engulfed by crimson flames, and at a glance, it seemed as though half the sky had been set ablaze!
"Ah ah ah ah ah!" On the ground, all the demon warriors and demonic beasts let out agonized screams as the terrifying flames that had emerged from the earth burned them to a crisp!
The flying creatures were even worse off—every corner of the sky was swallowed by the horrifying flames, and these flying demon warriors and demonic beasts were instantly vaporized into ashes!
In a breath's time!
With a single divine ability!
Within a hundred miles, completely cleared!
All the demon warriors and demonic beasts were wiped out!
Only demon cores were left scattered on the ground.
"Rise!!!" He Yi Ming raised his hand, and powerful spirit stones spread out, directly covering the enormous area of a hundred miles, retrieving all the demon cores. These cores were sent unceasingly into the Five Elements Small World!
Witnessing this scene, all the players were dumbfounded.
Not only were the surviving players on the ground staring in shock, the players who had turned into ghosts in the sky were going crazy!
"Damn, what kind of divine ability is this? How is it so awesome?"
"Damn it, we struggled for an entire hour, and then Brother Ming arrives and uses one divine ability to wipe out everyone? What the hell is this nonsense?"
"Brother Ming, I want to learn how to act cool like you... Oh, wait, I mean Incinerate the Heavens and Boil the Seas!"
...
At this moment, only around a hundred players were left alive, and aside from Wang Fei Vegeta, the rest of the players were all from the third closed beta who had fused with demonic spirits!
Even He Yi Ming hadn't anticipated this!
Among the top players of the first and second closed beta tests, apart from Wang Fei Sao Jita, everyone else was wiped out!
However, the most useless and more useless third closed beta players who had fused with demonic spirits had survived, creating a complete miracle!
"Disciples, you've done an outstanding job!!!"
"During the most difficult moment, you all triumphed!"
"In this battle of the Lost Era, our Flame Yellow Sect... emerged victorious!"
...
As He Yi Ming raised his right hand and shouted enthusiastically, the surviving players were bursting with excitement!
"Ah ah ah, I've finally made it to the end!"
"This battle was truly too difficult!"
"I never thought that in the end, it would be us who survived!"
...
These players were elated.
But soon, the news that He Yi Ming announced made the surviving players even more ecstatic!
"In recognition of your efforts in this battle, each disciple who made it this far will receive an exclusive title!"
"Indomitable Spear, True Man!"
...
He Yi Ming's announcement caused an uproar among the surviving players.
"Ahahaha, I get it, Brother Ming, I get it! Damn, none of us are real men!"
"Ahahaha, did you see that? Brother Ming personally admitted that I'm the true man with the indomitable spear in his eyes!"
"Hey, it's a shame for those who've turned into ghosts. Blame yourselves for being too soft. The last men standing in this arena are me, not you... Hahaha!"
...
The nearly hundred surviving players were mocking and boasting like crazy, thoroughly enjoying themselves.
"Damn these bastards!"
"Utterly ridiculous!"
"When I resurrect, I'm going to kill these miserable sons of bitches!"
...
The players turned into ghostly forms in the sky were all nearly losing their minds.
But then...
"After we return to the sect, I will distribute rewards! Additionally, seven days after returning to the sect, we will commence..."
"The initiation ceremony for the fourth generation disciples! This time, we will recruit 100,000 disciples! Simultaneously, ten elders will also be selected to oversee various sect affairs! Furthermore, there are many important matters to announce!"
He Yi Ming's casual announcement sent shockwaves through the crowd.
However, the ones who were the most excited and exhilarated were the online viewers who had been following the live broadcast on the forums!
"The fourth beta test is about to begin! There are 100,000 slots available!"
The forums exploded with discussions, causing an earth-shaking sensation. They couldn't believe that 100,000 slots were going to be available for the fourth beta test!
As the forum erupted with excitement and attention, He Yi Ming continued speaking.
"Finally, in this battle of the Lost Era, the top three disciples who displayed the most outstanding performances are..."
With He Yi Ming's words, all players held their breaths, eagerly awaiting the three names that would follow...
