868: Chapter 869 Ancestor! Save me—!!!

Rumble—!!!

Like stars colliding! A violent energy shockwave instantly swept in all directions!

“Pfft!”

“Ugh, ah!”

The Waning Moon Wolf Pack Formation shook violently, silver light flashing and flickering! Dozens of wolf clan elites in the formation felt as if they had been struck by a heavy hammer, spitting out blood in unison; those with weaker cultivation were directly blown into a bloody mist! The waning moon phantom formed by the formation was actually forced into a massive depression by the impact!

As the core of the formation eye, Silver Extreme Overlord bore the brunt of the attack; his face instantly turned pale as paper, and blood seeped from his seven orifices! His eyes were filled with horror! This Lietian Demon Emperor's strength was even more terrifying than the rumors!

“Lietian! You're looking for death!!” Silver Extreme Overlord was completely enraged, the wolf clan's ferocity utterly overwhelming his reason! A cruel silver light flickered in his eyes as his right claw suddenly lunged out!

“Soul—Rending—Wolf—Claw!”

Following his shrill roar, a massive silver wolf claw phantom—covered in icy scales, with long, curved nails like poisoned hooks and entwined with countless distorted, wailing Soul shadows—tore through the Void Realm and clawed down toward the mythical beast! This strike not only contained terrifying power to tear flesh but also carried a vicious curse that directly attacked, burned, and shredded the Divine Soul!

Facing this fatal blow delivered by a Peak Demon King bolstered by a malevolent formation, a hint of gravity flashed in the mythical beast's massive pupils. Taking it head-on was definitely not wise!

“Roar! True Hou Battle Body!!”

His massive body shook violently! Mysterious dark-gold demonic patterns instantly crawled across his crimson fur, and his entire frame expanded another circle like a balloon! His muscles knotted like iron mountain ranges, radiating a terrifying power capable of clashing with mountains! That dark-gold luster also contained an overbearing attribute that broke through Gang-qi and shattered laws!

“Break for me!!” Lietian roared madly, his massive right claw—similarly entwined with blood-red baleful energy and law-breaking power—swung out boldly to meet the Soul-rending wolf claw!

Boom—!!!

The claw phantoms collided! Space was torn into spiderweb-like cracks! A violent energy storm exploded once again!

Lietian's massive body was shaken slightly backward, and several bloody gashes were torn into his dark-gold fur. Furthermore, a vicious, Soul-burning pain invaded his Sea of Consciousness through the wounds, making him let out a muffled groan! This wolf claw was indeed malicious!

Silver Extreme Overlord was not faring well either; the counter-shock caused his blood and Qi to churn, and the formation became unstable once more!

“Old Yuan! What are you waiting for! Smash the turtle shells of those mutts for me!” Lietian endured the intense Soul pain and roared at Overlord Ape behind him! He knew they had to settle this quickly! Silver Extreme Overlord was clearly determined to capture that fox and still had cards to play!

“Roar!!!” The Overlord Demon Ape, Overlord Ape, had long been impatient! Upon receiving the order, he slammed his chest and let out a heaven-shaking roar!

“Law—Heaven—Phenomenon—Earth!!”

Rumble! Overlord Ape's body expanded frantically like a balloon! In an instant, he transformed into a hundred-zhang tall giant ape that reached the heavens, covered in thick black fur, with feet as red as branding irons, radiating a primal and ferocious aura! It was a weakened version of the Vermilion Ape Divine Ability!

The massive Iron Staff in his hand was now like a pillar supporting the heavens! Carrying a terrifying momentum that stirred the clouds and crushed mountains and rivers, entwined with condensed Astral Winds, he delivered the simplest and most violent strike without any fanfare toward the fluctuating Waning Moon Wolf Pack Formation—Splitting Mount Hua!

“Mutt! Take a blow from your Grandpa Yuan!!”

Before the staff shadow even arrived, the terrifying Astral Wind had already pressed the ground into a collapse! Every wolf clan warrior within the Waning Moon Wolf Pack Formation felt their Divine Souls tremble, sensing an impending doom!

Silver Extreme Overlord was currently using all his strength to maintain the stalemate between his wolf claw and Lietian; how could he have any energy left to block this terrifying giant staff capable of smashing mountain Peaks?! Seeing that the formation was about to be shattered by a single blow and all the wolf clan elites would be turned into meat paste!

He suddenly turned toward the Void Realm and let out a shrill, distorted roar:

“Old Ancestor!! Save me—!!!”

The moment his voice fell!

Boom—!!!

An indescribable, vast as the starry river, and cold as ten-thousand-year-old profound ice pressure descended suddenly, like the silver river of the Nine Heavens pouring down!

Crackle—!

The space for hundreds of miles around the outskirts of Lietian Peak seemed to be instantly frozen! The air solidified! Light distorted! Every plant and stone on the ground was instantly covered in a thick layer of bone-chilling, ice-blue profound ice! Even the clashing Lietian and Silver Extreme Overlord, and Overlord Ape who was swinging his giant staff, had their movements instantly frozen, as if bound by countless invisible ice crystal chains!

Above the sky...

A silver full moon, so massive it obscured half the sky and radiated a ghostly, deathly cold light, emerged silently!

Beneath the full moon...

An ethereal, misty, slender figure, seemingly condensed from the purest moonlight, slowly stepped out...

He was clad in a silver robe flowing with moonbeams, his face blurred, leaving only a pair of narrow, cold eyes that held no human emotion—like two cold silver moons—looking down at the frozen world below.

An Emperor-level pressure that transcended the Demon King realm and seemed to come from the Nine Netherworlds acted like an invisible giant hand, gripping the throats of all living beings present!

A cold, majestic voice with the tone of judgment fell like moonbeams:

“Lietian junior... hand over that Celestial Fox, or else... die.”

A hundred miles away, inside that quiet room filled with dense Spiritual Qi.

Yao Delong sat cross-legged on the jade bed, seemingly resting with eyes closed, but in fact, his Divine Thought had already enveloped the entire Lietian Peak battlefield. When the slanderous words of "the fox demon stealing a great treasure" reached him, his brow furrowed almost imperceptibly.

He turned his gaze to the side, to the little white fox who was diligently pounding his back with her small paws, her tail wagging rapidly.

“Xue Li.”

“Master?” Xue Li stopped her movements immediately and tilted her small head, her glazed eyes full of obedience.

“That Howling Moon Celestial Wolf Clan says you stole a great treasure from their clan.” Yao Delong's voice was flat. “Is this true?”

“Great treasure?!” Xue Li's eyes widened instantly, her small face filled with unbelievable shock and the grievance of being wronged, her head shaking like a rattle: “Master, please see clearly! Xue Li is innocent! That day when I fell into their territory, I had nothing on me except a few ordinary herbs I picked on the way! That Silver Fang pervert clearly saw my beauty... no, saw that I was alone and wanted to kill me for my core! Any great treasure is completely an excuse they made up to catch me!”

As she spoke, a hint of worldly shrewdness flashed in her eyes: “And think about it, Master! If I really took some incredible treasure, they would have mobilized their entire clan to hunt me down long ago. How could they wait until now to chase me here? And only send one Demon King like Silver Extreme Overlord?”

Xue Li's voice carried a hint of chill, revealing a deeper truth: “Now the entire Demon Domain knows that my Heavenly Fox Clan is fighting with the Chaos Python Clan Clan for ownership of the ancient 'Myriad Demon Secret Realm'! To suppress us, the Chaos Python Clan Clan has secretly offered a huge reward for the capture of our core members! Xue Li guesses that Silver Fang must have recognized my Qingqiu Royal Bloodline and wanted to capture me to send to the Chaos Python Clan Clan in exchange for massive benefits!”
