304: Blood-Eyed Demon Ape

“Hm? Black Feather is dead?”

Just as Xu Qing annihilated the Black Feather Demon Eagle, in the center of the mountain range, a towering peak stood. Atop this peak, there was a spacious cave, and a pair of scarlet eyes opened.

“Who dares to kill my Tu You Mountain Protector!”

A heaven-reaching aura surged skyward, and the next moment, a vast Dao thought swept towards Xu Qing’s direction.

“Troublesome!”

Xu Qing sensed this Dao thought, but it was nothing more than good blood fodder!

“Human Race? You deserve to die!!!”

An incredibly enraged voice reverberated, the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth trembled, and all living beings felt a deafening roar. Some low-Realm beings instantly had their sacred souls shattered, perishing instantly.

Xu Qing stood in the Void Realm, his entire body enveloped in Chaos, his eyes radiating brilliant light. He looked directly at the Dao thought and said coldly, “A mere beast, trying to stop this venerable one?”

“What?”

“You deserve to die!”

A voice filled with killing intent echoed through the Void Realm.

“Don’t you dare screech at me!”

Xu Qing struck with a palm, instantly obliterating its Dao thought!

“Roar!!!”

Above the towering peak, a furious roar resounded.

Under the roaring sound, which contained the violent Dao, the distant mountain range trembled as if an earthquake had struck, and some towering peaks had their summits directly broken off.

“Tu You Mountain, listen to my command, hunt down this person for me!”

A giant figure, ten thousand zhang tall, appeared outside the towering mountain range.

The being within the cave, with its blood-red colossal eyes, let out a ferocious roar filled with killing intent, causing all the Yao Beasts on the mountain to leave their habitats and head towards the Black Feather Demon Eagle’s territory.

Rumble!

Hundreds of thousands of monstrous Emperor Realm auras surged, pressing down upon the Nine Heavens, causing the Void Realm to churn and stirring up boundless Void Realm ripples, making countless living beings tremble in fear.

Among them, there were also many auras that transcended the Dao, surging mightily towards Xu Qing’s direction.

“They’re here!”

Xu Qing smiled faintly. He knew that the Yao Race had simple minds, so he deliberately suppressed his cultivation to the Late Stage of Dao Severing, aiming to attract more Yao Beasts to him.

The first to arrive was a flock of firebirds burning with flames; their terrifying fiery glow dyed half the sky red.

“Screech!”

A fiery red divine beam slashed through the air, and the Void Realm clanged, separating layer by layer.

If this were in the Lower Realm, this one strike alone would be enough to collapse and annihilate vast swathes of space.

This divine feather, capable of slaying an Emperor Realm expert, was simply grabbed and crushed by Xu Qing.

“Swoosh swoosh swoosh!”

A flock of firebirds flapped their wings fiercely. In an instant, fiery feathers filled the sky, like burning meteors, streaking across the heavens, carrying sharp edges, and slashing directly at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing’s expression remained calm. As the fiery feathers approached, a profound power emanated from his body, and strange patterns appeared in the Void Realm, like ancient runes, glowing with mysterious light.

These runes intertwined, instantly transforming into the power of time, freezing the fiery feathers in place.

“Rustle rustle rustle!”

Xu Qing’s body trembled, and the fiery feathers in the sky were reflected back as if by an invisible giant hand, forming a sea of dazzling fiery feathers that swept towards the flock of firebirds.

“Not good!”

Among the firebirds, a fiery red figure, seeing this situation, stepped into the air!

“Prairie Skyfire Dao!”

The fiery red figure roared, and endless flames gushed out from his body, turning into a raging sea of fire that engulfed the fiery feathers, and then, like a prairie fire, pressed towards Xu Qing.

Xu Qing’s expression remained unchanged. He took one step, already treading upon that sea of fire; with another step, Xu Qing was already above the fiery red figure, a cold smile appearing on his face.

The fiery red figure, seeing this, looked panicked.

“Heaven-Burning Fire Sea Dao!”

He was surrounded by surging Dao power, and he formed hand seals, raising his hands from his chest to his forehead, palms facing inward.

The surging sea of fire churned, transforming into a giant firebird that opened its massive maw, attempting to swallow Xu Qing.

“Sword Slashes Asura Dao!”

Xu Qing whispered softly, his palm facing downwards, and endless slaughter bloomed. Thousands of blood-colored sword lights, like an inverted heavenly waterfall, poured down, instantly engulfing the fiery red figure and all the firebirds.

“Puff puff puff!”

“Ah…”

“No!!!”

Within the sword light waterfall, cries of agony echoed, and patches of scorching blood rain fell, then transformed into streams of Qi that were devoured by Xu Qing.

“Audacious Human Race, daring to invade my Tu You Mountain, killing my mountain’s Protector, ten thousand deaths cannot atone!”

Just then, from afar, terrifying auras rapidly approached.

The Yao Race army, carrying monstrous auras, arrived. A rough count revealed over a million of them, with the lowest cultivation being Peak Quasi-Emperor Realm.

“Seventeen Dao Severing, over a thousand Emperor Realm. Excellent!”

Xu Qing looked up, his eyes gleaming.

“Bastard! You’re courting death!”

Seemingly recognizing the predatory look in Xu Qing’s eyes, the Yao Beasts were enraged. Rolling Dao might pressed down, stirring up waves of Chaos Qi that swept through the vast Void Realm.

One particularly enormous ape-like being, ten thousand zhang tall, roared in fury, broke away from the ranks, and with a great leap, crossed a million zhang, charging rapidly towards Xu Qing.

Boom clatter clatter!

As it passed a divine peak, lightning surged around its body. It embraced the divine peak with both hands, and with the force of uprooting a mountain, it tore up the peak and hurled it towards Xu Qing. At this moment, the heavens truly collapsed and the earth split, with thunder and lightning rumbling across the sky!

This was a world-shattering, astonishing scene, and all the weaker beings trembled at this moment.

“One Sword Shatters Rivers and Mountains!”

Xu Qing used his finger as a sword, slashing towards the divine peak. The terrifying sword Dao power condensed into a single point, then instantly erupted.

“Swoosh~”

The sword light pierced through layers of the Void Realm, instantly penetrating the divine peak. With a “boom,” the divine peak exploded in the Void Realm, but the sword light’s momentum remained undiminished, striking the thunder ape’s glabella at an incredibly fast speed.

“Boom!”

The thunder ape shuddered all over, and the next moment, its eyes dimmed, and it crashed heavily to the ground, kicking up a sky full of dust.

“What?”

At this moment, Heaven and Earth fell silent. All the Yao Beasts’ fur stood on end in horror, and their Divine Souls trembled.

The thunder ape’s cultivation was not weak; he was already at the Late Stage of Dao Severing, considered extremely powerful among them. Yet, such a being was instantly killed in one move, without even having time to unleash his Dao techniques.

“Now it’s your turn!”

As Xu Qing’s voice fell, his body was enveloped in boundless and infinite Dao techniques.

Rumble!

He extended a colossal hand that blotted out the sky, imbued with rich Dao power, and it rumbled down. The entire firmament shook violently, almost collapsing.

“Dao Supreme!”

Feeling the aura emanating from Xu Qing, the Yao Beasts were horrified and tried to flee into the distance, but their speed was no match for the massive hand.

“Stop!”

Heaven and Earth suddenly changed color, like divine thunder exploding, and terrifying killing intent intertwined, forming a furry fist that slammed into the massive hand.

“Rumble!”

Beneath the firmament, various terrifying phenomena appeared, stirring up raging, turbulent energy that shook the sky. With the point of impact as the epicenter, an area of ten million li was completely reduced to a dead zone, where only beings above the Emperor Realm had a chance to escape such a deadly Realm.

“Bastard, you deceived me!”

An angry voice rang out. A figure ten thousand zhang tall appeared from afar. This was a giant ape completely enveloped in blood Qi, with fangs showing.

“I didn’t expect it to be a Blood-Eyed Demon Ape!”

Xu Qing was surprised. The Blood-Eyed Demon Ape was an ancient exotic beast with a powerful Bloodline. Although the opponent was only at Perfection in Dao Severing, he was powerful enough to kill an Early Stage Dao Lord beyond his Realm, and even contend with a Middle Stage Dao Lord!
