180: The peak of the fifth level, looking down on the world!

Soon, three days had passed since the great battle for Mount Tai.

As the world's grand destiny restarted, many fierce beasts began their path of claiming mountains as their kingdoms. Some fierce beasts, having found opportunities and greatly increased their strength, even aggressively attacked nearby fierce beasts, seizing their territories and declaring themselves kings.

During this time, almost every day, large numbers of tragic cries or unwilling roars erupted from various mountain forests, causing a host of low-level fierce beasts to cower and hide in their small corners of the world, not daring to move freely.

The inheritor of that human True Monarch also left Mount Tai, but he did not take the other fierce beasts with him. It was unknown whether he continued to search for Xia Fan's whereabouts or sought other opportunities to quickly make up for his losses.

At this moment, Mahamayuri stood on a giant rock, his proud head held high, looking down at the many fierce beasts before him. "Henceforth, Mount Tai is my territory. Anyone who dares to violate my authority will be killed without mercy!"

"You are all my servants. From today onwards, you shall undertake the patrol duties of Mount Tai. If any outsider is discovered crossing into my territory, they too shall be killed without mercy!"

All the fierce beasts remained silent; they dared not resist this powerful being.

After all, just a quarter of an hour ago, a fierce beast at the peak of the fourth rank, just one step away from entering the fifth rank, defied Mahamayuri and was torn apart by his claw, without even time to resist.

With this act of 'killing a chicken to warn the monkeys,' Mahamayuri successfully controlled these fierce beasts, becoming one of the overlords of Mount Tai, now commanding a large number of Mount Tai's fierce beasts.

The reason he was 'one of the overlords' was because the other two fifth-rank fierce beasts had directly joined forces and controlled the other half of Mount Tai.

They had also gathered quite a few fierce beasts, but even so, they could only barely contend with Mahamayuri.

The gap between the two kings was not small.

Of course, the current Mount Tai stretched for thousands of miles, containing countless fierce beasts. Therefore, even Mahamayuri had only unilaterally declared his rule over Mount Tai.

He still found it difficult to achieve absolute control over Mount Tai!

"Immortal Aunt!"

"You... you truly are a person of destiny!"

On Mount Emei, its former sect master seemed to have awakened some inheritance, not only transforming into the Emei Immortal Aunt but also regaining her youth, immediately causing the nuns in the mountain to rejoice and offer congratulations.

After opening her eyes, the Emei Immortal Aunt nodded slightly, then commanded, "Pass down my sect's order: effective immediately, any woman who is homeless or has a heart for the Dao may come to Mount Emei to pay respects and cultivate. Those with superior aptitude will receive personal guidance from me."

Upon hearing this, the nuns were all greatly surprised, as their former sect master had long since withdrawn from worldly affairs for many years!

Mount Emei, besides Mount Tai, was another place that gained opportunity and soared to prominence due to the great changes in heaven and earth. The Emei Immortal Aunt was one of the newly ascended powerhouses there.

Across the Divine Land, similar situations were occurring in famous mountains everywhere. The human nuns cultivating on Mount Emei were just one example.

For instance, the already renowned Shu Mountain Sword Immortal, and on Mount Hua, there was even a goshawk that had occupied the mountain and begun to establish a sect.

Speaking of which, this fierce beast was quite unique.

On Mount Hua, the goshawk faced a group of fierce beasts and some nervous humans, smiling indifferently, "I have long said that cultivation is about both talent and destiny."

"In my eyes, all things in the world can cultivate, and there is no distinction of sect or race, just as you humans say, 'education without discrimination'!"

"Therefore, everyone present today, whether human or fierce beast, as long as you pass the basic test I have set, you can learn the arts."

"Those who excel, I will impart all my insights without reservation!"

Besides these, powerful beings appeared in various famous mountains such as Mount Heng and Mount Song, and as soon as they emerged, they began to dominate an area, either aggressively expanding their territory or gathering followers.

All newly ascended powerhouses wanted to strengthen their foundations as much as possible at this time.

Only Kunlun Mountain remained without news of any new powerhouses claiming it or establishing a sect there.

After the changes in heaven and earth, Kunlun Mountain became the largest famous mountain, its area expanded countless times, and even to this day, no one could measure it, so no one knew how vast Kunlun Mountain truly was.

And because there were more legends about Kunlun Mountain than any other famous mountain, even if there were new powerhouses nearby, they dared not brazenly occupy this place and declare themselves kings!

...At this moment, deep beneath the sea, a majestic aura was surging.

This caused passing sea beasts, even those dozens or hundreds of nautical miles away, to flee far away, not daring to approach easily.

Seven days had passed since Xia Fan swallowed that innate spiritual fruit. During this period, he remained motionless, as if in a deep slumber, but the aura on his body continuously climbed, now incredibly vast.

Not far away, a fourth-rank late-stage sea turtle was stirring restlessly.

Now, seeing that Xia Fan still showed no movement, he secretly thought, "This land fierce beast must have drowned, right? Otherwise, why hasn't he woken up after so many days?"

"This guy's body contains endless flesh and blood; if I devour him, I will surely be able to successfully enter the fifth rank!"

Thinking this, the sea turtle slightly opened its mouth, about to make a move.

Buzz—

But just then, Xia Fan's tightly closed eyes suddenly opened, and the aura emanating from them instantly sent the sea turtle flying, causing it to tumble repeatedly, looking extremely disheveled!

"Finally finished digesting!"

Xia Fan muttered to himself, a satisfied expression on his face. His eyes now held an air of looking down on the world, for he was already a fifth-rank peak existence!

Now, he believed that in this grand era, he could still become one of the strongest.

"You're doing well too."

At this moment, Xia Fan's gaze shifted to the side.

The Magic Cat had followed him for so long and received many benefits; now it also seemed to be breaking through. Fortunately, it had the protection of the eastern emperor bell just now, otherwise, the aura and pressure he unleashed during his breakthrough would probably have interrupted the Magic Cat's progress.

As for the overturned sea turtle, Xia Fan didn't even spare it a glance. All his attention was now focused on the Magic Cat, and he even murmured to himself, "If this little guy advances to the fifth rank, my own boost will be even greater."

"Perhaps, after we merge, I'll be able to unleash sixth-rank combat power!"

"At the current stage, there shouldn't be any powerhouses who can achieve this, right?"
