Chapter 55: " incoming Calamity "
Roar…
A sudden roar shook the land. The deafening sound echoed through the boundless mountain range, reaching even its outermost regions. Experts fleeing in panic felt their bodies weaken instantly, their legs turning to jelly. Many collapsed onto the ground, unable to muster the strength to continue their escape.
Their mounts had long since stopped obeying orders. Overcome with fear, they lay trembling on the ground, their bodies paralyzed by terror. None dared to lift their heads. Instead, they prostrated themselves, kowtowing toward the desolate lands as if offering reverence to an unknown force.
At the farthest reaches of the mountain range, dreadful auras clashed, shaking the heavens. Four great creatures were locked in a fierce battle. The scene resembled the birth of a new world—blazing flames pierced the sky, black mists swallowed the sun, and at times, an iron rod swept across the vast expanse like a celestial weapon.
In the distance, a mountain peak crumbled, unable to withstand the sheer force of their clashes. Rivers boiled under the oppressive heat of the flames, while the once-clear skies twisted with dark clouds summoned by their wrath. Even the most hardened experts could only watch in despair, knowing this was a power far beyond mortal reach.
This was a battle of apocalyptic scale. If not for the ten or so precious bones within the valley suppressing the vast mountain range, one could hardly imagine what devastation would have befallen these lands.
In this chaotic mist, a bird's cry pierced the nine heavens.
The small, fiery-red griffin fought furiously against its opponent in close quarters. Scarlet flames surged from its body, soaring into the sky and setting half the heavens ablaze with unbearable heat.
Roar!
A thunderous roar shook heaven and earth. Its opponent devoured mountains and rivers with a presence so vast that it seemed to dominate the world itself. Multicolored light exploded into the sky, clashing against the inferno and suppressing the raging flames.
If anyone had witnessed this battle, they would have been left dumbstruck. The little red Griffin 's opponent was no ordinary creature—it was a colossal bird, yet its cry carried the ferocity of a beast.
Every flap of its wings sent ripples through the land, shaking mountains and rivers alike. If not for the precious bones suppressing the range, everything in sight would have been reduced to ruin.
Whoomph!
Its massive wings stretched across the sky, dark as a black cloud, concealing the heavens. The oppressive shadow it cast unexpectedly dimmed the scarlet flames by a great amount. Then, with a sudden movement, a pair of enormous talons descended, attempting to seize the little red griffin.
That vicious bird was colossal—it filled the entire sky. Its vast feathered wings spanned across the heavens, covering a hundred thousand mountains. The sheer pressure of its presence was overwhelming, making human souls tremble with fear.
Jiu!
With a sharp, piercing cry, the fiery-red griffin shot upward. Though small in size, its strength was incomparable. As it clashed against the massive talons, sparks erupted in every direction, illuminating the battlefield in fleeting bursts of light.
Boom!
A deafening explosion echoed through the battlefield as the two forces collided, unleashing waves of destruction that threatened to tear the heavens asunder.
The two creatures exchanged blows with all their might. The enormous bird blotted out the skies and darkened the land below. Its entire form was shrouded in thick black mist, making it nearly impossible to see its true shape. From the distance, only a pair of blood-red eyes glowed ominously, like two eerie moons hanging in the heavens.
Doooom!
A deafening explosion echoed as their powers clashed once more, shaking the very fabric of the battlefield.
The force of their collision sent shockwaves rippling through the mountains, splitting ancient peaks in half. Rivers churned violently as the heavens trembled beneath the overwhelming power of their battle. Even the most fearless creatures of the land cowered, hiding in their burrows as the sky turned into a battlefield of gods."
That massive, vicious bird was simply too large. With each flap of its wings, it seemed as if even the skies could no longer contain it. Its attacks were unmatched, and every movement shook the heavens.
The little red Griffin was struggling from its injuries. It had already fought day and night against that iron-rod-wielding creature, and both sides had suffered greatly as a result of their battle.
Xiu, xiu!
Multicolored scarlet rays pierced through the skies. Dense symbols interwove and flickered across the little red Griffin's body, forming an intricate web of power. It opened its shimmering, diamond-like red beak and unleashed streaks of blazing light.
This was an incomparably powerful precious technique. Divine radiance condensed into razor-sharp scarlet immortal swords, each burning with heavenly flames as they slashed toward the enormous bird.
Hou!
That massive, mist-shrouded vicious bird let out a wild roar. It sensed immense danger approaching and immediately unfurled its colossal wings, soaring into the vast blue sky.
At that very moment, the black mist surrounding it began to churn violently. Upon entering the boundless heavens, all of its iron-like feathers spread open, shimmering with eerie brilliance. Symbols flickered across its body, extending outward to envelop the entire sky and earth. In an instant, an endless rain of black light descended, crashing down like a divine calamity.
Boom! Boom!
Blinding divine rays exploded in midair. Black and scarlet immortal swords clashed like falling comets, their collisions ringing through the heavens with a deafening clamor, shaking the desolate land below.
Wu—Wu!
Elsewhere, violent gales howled through the void, tearing through the nine heavens. A colossal iron rod, gripped by an enormous hairy hand, swept through the battlefield with unmatched ferocity. Its fierce battle with the indomitable creature had reached its climax. Each time
the two titanic forces collided, the Skies would be torn apart, sending chaotic shockwaves rippling across the world.
Multicolored light erupted in all four directions, sharp energy slicing through the air like invisible blades. A mysterious artifact hovered up and down in the sky, flickering with an eerie glow. However, the four great creatures did not seize it immediately; instead, they remained locked in combat, each determined to eliminate their opponent first.
With these four terrifying beings present, no other lifeforms dared to approach. Countless third-level and second-level beasts shivered in fear, their instincts screaming at them to stay far away. They cowered in the distance, unwilling to take even a single step closer.
The intensity of the battle gradually escalated. These four unimaginably powerful existences fought with reckless abandon, risking life and limb in their desperate struggle. A terrifying aura spread across the desolate lands, striking fear deep into the hearts of distant spectators, making their souls tremble.
Weng!
Heaven and earth shook violently. A massive, dreadful claw, large enough to blot out the sky, suddenly slashed downward toward the little red griffin. Divine radiance surged like raging waves crashing against the shore.
This was a surprise attack! The towering creature with eerie, ghostly green eyes had abandoned its iron-rod-wielding opponent, choosing instead to unleash its terrifying assault upon the little red griffin.
The fiery red griffin was enraged. With a violent sweep of its wings, a scarlet hurricane burst forth, capable of ripping apart the heavens and the earth. Terrifying flames roared within its vortex, surging toward the colossal claw that threatened to crush it.
At the same time, the massive bird on the other side swooped down in a crisscross trajectory toward the iron rod. The creature shrouded in chaotic mist streaked across the sky in a majestic arc, eclipsing the black clouds as it radiated an overwhelming presence. Thick, swirling black fog rose to the heavens, and from its blood-moon-like eyes, two massive crimson spears as thick as the loftiest mountains shot forward with unparalleled force.
Boom!
The heavens and earth trembled violently, swaying under the immense shockwaves. In an instant, the four great lifeforms had swapped opponents, their killing intent surging to an unimaginable level. They poured all their strength into annihilating one another in this life-and-death battle.
The mountain range was endless and majestic, stretching beyond the horizon. Tens of thousands of towering peaks stood side by side, their silhouettes etched against the sky. Symbols flickered in patches across the land—some scarlet red like fresh blood, some pitch-black like the abyss, and others pure-white like crystalline ice. Yet, despite their stark contrasts, They all blossomed between the heavens and the earth, and these symbols represented the inscriptions of the array in the precious bones that suppressed the entire mountain range.
Without them, during this fierce battle, even if the sky itself didn't come crashing down, a disaster too difficult to deal with would be imminent.
At the far reaches of the mountain range's border, the casual cultivators endured soul-crushing fear. They staggered as they fled for their lives. This area was far too frightening, and it was difficult to imagine what kind of creatures could be behind it all. Even the light they emitted made their knees buckle, and their hearts were trapped in a constant state of terror.
At this very moment, all they wished for was to escape to another land, far from this calamity!
In Puchan town inside the Formation covering the town, there is still a lot of monks stying here, now they are all terrified.
" A large battle is occurring in the middle of the mountains, we truly have no way of knowing just what kind of Devine creatures are causing such an intense battle. "
I've always felt that there was a mysterious power locking the mountains valleys in place. Otherwise, everything within a range of fifty thousand miles might have encountered disaster a long time ago.
Monks were muttered as they become anxious and Frightened at the thought of how long this terrifying battle would continue for.
...
The desperate battle continued. Within the heart of the mountains, if it wasn't the tsunami-like roar of a beast that engulfed the nine heavens and trembled everything between heaven and earth, then it was the astonishing cry of a bird that sounded like the soul-crushing voice of a deity.
This battle unexpectedly went on for several days with no sign of stopping!
All the monks, and even the mortal inhabitants of the surrounding countries, began to flee deep into the territory of the Qinglin Sect. They moved away from the area and finally managed to escape back to where they came from, but their hearts continued to beat incessantly. Even though a distance of several thousand miles separated them, a dark mood loomed over them, and they all felt as if an ominous event was about to occur.
The land is going to go nuts. There is no way to know what going to happen" a few Casual monks muttered.
"hopefully the confusion would stopped soon" many people were praying.
As the battle raged on in the endless mountains, the surrounding immortal cities and even The Qinglin Sect are all Uneasy, the air inside the Qinglin Sect grew heavy with tension.
The Sect, a prestigious Golden Core Sect, was home to the Sect Master, a peak Golden Core cultivator, as well as several Elders at the early stages of the Golden Core realm and hundreds of Foundation Building monks.
For the past several days, even as they still far away from the Endless mountains, the earth had trembled under the impact of the catastrophic fight between the powerful beasts. The roar of the beasts and the terrifying clashes of their attacks echoed in the distance, filling the air with a sense of impending doom.
Inside the Sect, the normally serene atmosphere was replaced by an undercurrent of worry and unease. The air itself seemed thick with pressure
The Elders gathered in the main hall, their faces grim as they exchanged looks of concern. They could all feel the battle far in the mountains, the vibrations began reaching even here.
"We cannot afford to be careless," Sect Master Mo Hua, a tall and imposing figure with sharp eyes, Peak Golden Core Realm and the strongest one in the Sect, spoke in a low voice, his tone calm but carrying an unmistakable weight.
"although the formation protecting our Sect is strong, but it Definitely can not withstand such overwhelming forces. If the battle spreads to us…"
A silence fell over the room, and all eyes turned to the glowing formation that surrounded the Sect. But even the most powerful arrays had their limits, and no one could guarantee that it would hold if the beasts' clash reached their doorstep.
One of the Golden cores Elders, a middle-aged man with graying hair, clenched his fists in worry.
" Sect master, shoud we send the news to the Taiyi Sect? The power behind those beasts is unimaginable. We Definitely can not withstand such overwhelming forces. If the battle spreads to us, then we can only wait to die.
Outside, the disciples of the Sect could feel the growing tension, their faces pale as they whispered among themselves. They had never experienced anything like this before. The winds carried the distant sound of the battle, and the once tranquil atmosphere now felt charged with an oppressive weight. The fear of a catastrophe hung in the air like an unspoken truth.
Sect Master Mo said. "I have already sent the news, and they said they will send a Nascent Soul ancestor to assess the situation. We can only wait now, hoping the battle will end quickly."
....
In the far reaches of the boundless mountain range, a pure red divine object was being battered between these four supreme lifeforms. Their fierce fight never stopped as they sometimes reached out to try and grab the divine object.
Shiiish!
Chaotic mist surged up, and that red divine object was knocked away, flying into a distant location. It unexpectedly pierced through the dense mountain valleys covered with symbols, and those ten or so precious bones were unable to lock this place down anymore.
Boom!
A huge beast's foot treaded outward. It stood in place with mist curling up all around it, and its ghostly eyes swept in all directions as it said, "This divine object is of utmost importance. The fewer the amount of people who know about it, the better!"
"Then kill them all, starting with all the humans. Wipe all these loose-lipped humans and other creatures clean," retorted the vicious bird. It also rushed out, covered in a chaotic aura. Its omnipresent wings flapped, covering the entire mountain range below. Its size was unrivaled, and with a pair of eyes like blood moons, it's vicious might astonished even the heavens.
Dong!
An iron rod as large as a mountain ridge stabbed outward. It was majestically held within a huge, hairy hand. This creature was also shrouded within mist. Each swing of its iron rod contained unrivaled divine might!
A little red griffin followed, and a blazing light covered the entire sky.
Four creatures with unimaginable divine might fought and roared as they shook the entire area. The ancient precious bones were struggling to restrict the area.
"Every soul, listen to my commands. Flatten the entire area!" In the middle of the mist, a pair of ghastly green eyes increased in intensity, their ice-cold gaze emanating from the frightening, towering creature as it ordered.
"Go! Sweep everything in your path flat!" That vicious bird no longer produced a beastly cry and started using human speech.
Its voice rumbled as it gave the command, and those blood-red moon eyes were incredibly cold and terrifying.
Chaotic air fled the area as that pure-white divine object bobbed up and down. It was on the verge of falling into the hands of the creature with the iron rod, and the other three terrifying Existences all cries out as they charged and chased after it.
