The entire Sky-Devouring Beast was shrouded under the earth's crust, and the pressed down crust was all coated with a layer of luster, appearing extremely hard, and those inverted peaks were like sharp spears.
However, although Xiao San, the Sky-Swallowing Beast, was in a state of hunger, he was not completely irrational. When the crust of the mountain pressed down, he instinctively twisted his body to avoid the place where the sharp peak fell. His entire body was pressed under the ground of the desolate valley by the earth and rock crust.
“Mmmmm…”
“Boom… Boom… Boom… Boom…”
The Sky-Devouring Beast covered underground was struggling hard, twisting its body and swinging its tail. The few pieces of crust that fell were constantly rising and falling, and some even began to crack.
The two demon kings were suspended in the air watching this scene, then looked back at the thousands of goblins and monsters who were good at using earth magic. They were all trying their best to cast spells to maintain their situation, chanting incantations, some were sweating profusely, and some were trembling.
A demon cultivator with two large black wings behind him flapped his wings a few times and flew to the side of the young demon king in brocade robe.
"My lord, they can't hold on any longer."
"Well, they are just a bunch of rubbish, so we don't expect them to be of much use."
As he spoke, the man looked at the man in animal skins not far away.
"Now that the people of Weimei Sect have crossed the border without reason, it is not us who are causing trouble. The Weimei Sect indulged the immortal beasts and slaughtered our demon clan, so they must pay the price!"
The man in the animal skin clothes looked very rough, but he just smiled.
"Then the Miaoyun Demon King can just take action."
The man in brocade robe narrowed his eyes and looked at the man in animal skins.
"Why, you won't do anything?"
"The Sky Devouring Beast has a childish mindset and is difficult to control. The people of the Weimei Sect are alone and deep in the country. The Miaoyun Demon King is leading his troops outside. I think they can handle it easily. I won't make a fool of myself."
"Well, then just stand here and watch!"
The young man in brocade robe known as the Miaoyun Demon King did not say much. He simply swung his palm and sent a demonic wind flying towards the constantly shaking ground where the Sky-Devouring Beast was buried. The man in the animal skin clothes behind him shouted only after he left.
"By the way, the woman on top of the Sky-Swallowing Beast is no ordinary woman. Demon King Miaoyun must not be careless!"
The young man turned around and glanced coldly at the man in animal skins in the sky, then flew down to the ground at an even faster speed. In less than two breaths, he had already stepped on the earth's crust.
As soon as the toes touched the ground, slight ripples spread out within a foot outside the soles of the feet, and then the ripples grew bigger and bigger, finally causing a storm.
"boom--"
The ground in the desolate valley was like being hit by a giant hammer, and the area within a few miles collapsed several feet. The earth and rock storm was centered at the feet of the young man in brocade robe, and continued to spread outward, and several cracked pieces of the earth's crust closed up again in an instant.
"Roar..."
The Sky-Devouring Beast roared in pain for the first time, and the magic lights on many buildings on its back were shattered, and many pavilions and towers collapsed. Jiang Xueling stood in front of the Sky-Devouring Beast's forehead, pinched a seal with one hand, and with the other hand, grabbed his whisk and swept it towards the sky a few times, which slowed down the downward momentum of the earth's crust a lot, but it still made the Sky-Devouring Beast extremely uncomfortable.
The observatory on the back of the Sky-Devouring Beast is a very special location. Even though the surrounding buildings collapsed, there was still no impact on the observatory. Even the tea in the teacups on the tables of Ji Yuan and others did not cause any ripples.
"The demon king values strength above all else. Although his state of mind is not as good as that of immortal cultivators like me, his killing power cannot be underestimated!"
Ju Yuanzi looked up at the earth and rock crust that had been pressed down and said so to Ji Yuan and Lian Baiping, and Ji Yuan then turned his eyes away from the direction of the Sky-Swallowing Beast's head.
"The Demon King has his own ways, otherwise he wouldn't be so powerful. The Southern Wasteland is truly the territory of demons and monsters, and there are quite a few demons. Although it's not as chaotic as the Black Wasteland, it's definitely not a good place. We must be ready to take action at any time."
After Ji Yuan said this, Lian Baiping and Ju Yuanzi of course said "yes" in response, and Lian Baiping changed the subject after responding.
"But Mr. Ji, I have heard that the transformation of the Sky-Swallowing Beast also requires the stimulation of potential and the experience of tribulations. Perhaps this is also the Sky-Swallowing Beast's tribulation. We should not intervene too early."
"That makes sense." "Let's wait and see."
Lian Baiping's words made sense, and they came from his mouth. Jiang Xueling had to intervene, and it helped the Sky-Swallowing Beast, but it also made it more difficult for it to succeed. Ji Yuan and others could not act rashly.
On the outside, the Demon King stepped forward and only the Sky-Devouring Beast cried out in pain but no scream was heard. The other foot that was suspended in the air immediately stepped down heavily again.
"Boom..."
Countless pieces of gravel and dust suddenly exploded from the edge of the desolate valley and the gaps between several compacted crusts.
“Woohoo—”
The Sky-Devouring Beast's voice was filled with more anger amidst the pain. Jiang Xueling in front of its forehead still only swung the whisk twice, only sharing some of the pressure, and then spoke in a slightly cold voice.
"Xiao San, people are about to crush you with the mountain. If they trample the earth's crust into one, you will be suppressed underground. Even if you don't die, I don't know how many years it will take for you to come out, let alone eat."
“Mmmmm…”
Boom... Rumble, rumble, rumble...
The Sky-Devouring Beast was shaking all over, and the shaking was getting more and more violent. The observatory where Ji Yuan and the others were located began to crack. Ju Yuanzi simply slapped the ground, and the entire observatory actually broke away from the base on the back of the Sky-Devouring Beast, and floated one foot in the air. The cracked parts also closed together, becoming a complete square platform again.
Of course, the violent vibration underground was also transmitted to the upper part, making the Demon King's legs numb and itchy, and a trace of surprise appeared on his face. The power of the Sky-Devouring Beast was indeed terrifying.
"You monsters, use the mud-transforming technique!"
"Yes, my king!" "Yes!"
The demon king spoke loudly, and instantly all the monsters and demons in and outside the valley heard his orders and began to cast spells.
Amidst a series of strange or sharp humming sounds, the soil beneath the earth's crust, especially under the body of the Sky-Devouring Beast, began to soften and become extremely muddy.
“Hahaha, now that you’re away from solid ground, I wonder how much strength you can exert!”
The demon king laughed mockingly above the earth's crust, and then stomped his feet heavily again.
boom…
The earth's crust sank several feet into the ground again and began to merge with each other. Countless spirits around it cast spells and chanted in unison, making the fusion faster. Even the earth and rocks piled up above formed the outlines of some mountains, which looked like a mountain-suppressing method. It was powerful and brutal at the same time.
Jiang Xueling's breathing remained steady throughout, while Ji Yuan and the other three spectators were still pouring tea. Seeing this scene, Ji Yuan sighed with a smile.
"This Sky-Swallowing Beast looks as terrifying as a mountain, but it is somewhat like a fish, turning mud into pulp. The Sky-Swallowing Beast is not without support, but is actually helping it!"
"So it is said that monsters are heavy and difficult to conform to the Tao!"
Lian Baiping also laughed. As soon as they finished speaking, they felt that the Sky-Devouring Beast actually took the initiative to dive into the muddy underground, causing the Demon King standing outside the earth's crust to feel as if he was stepping on empty air for a moment.
'what happened?'
As this thought came to my mind, I suddenly heard the sound of rolling water coming from underground, and the next moment, a huge force erupted from under my feet.
"Boom boom——" "Crash..."
The earth's crust exploded without warning, and countless muds mixed with gravel and soil formed a hemispherical shape and flew in all directions. A giant fish rolling in the mud twisted in the mud and rushed out of the ground in one fell swoop. Its huge mouth as dark as the abyss swallowed upwards, and it was self-evident who the target was.
The Demon King flew into the sky at this moment. Although the dim light swallowed by the Sky-Devouring Beast emitted a strange pulling force, it was not enough to completely pull the Demon King into its mouth.
Despite this, the Miaoyun Demon King who flew into the sky was still frightened. Looking down, he saw many spirits and monsters who were affected and failed to retreat in time, just like people falling into a whirlpool in the water, constantly gathering towards the mouth of the Sky-Swallowing Beast.
"My Lord, save me...!" "My Lord!"
"ah… "
The monsters' cries for help were just noise to the Sky-Devouring Beast and the Demon King. Watching them being devoured had no effect on the Demon King at all. However, the Sky-Devouring Beast's escape made him very angry. He turned to look at the man in animal skin clothes at the other end of the sky. Although the other party did not make a sound, he always felt that he was laughing.
"Weimeishi monk, you trespassed into the southern wilderness of my demon clan and slaughtered my demon people. Don't you have anything to say?"
The mud on the Sky-Devouring Beast's body was sliding down in all directions. Some of the wounds on its body that originally looked horrific but were actually negligible to the beast itself were healing, and it was floating up again.
Jiang Xueling stood at the forehead and said loudly.
"My immortal way and you demons are on opposite sides of the coin. There is no point in talking any more. You didn't become the demon king just by talking, did you?"
Ji Yuan frowned slightly when he heard Jiang Xueling's words. It had to be said that, in the overall direction, immortals and demons could not coexist was the typical thinking of many immortal figures, and even Jiang Xueling was no exception. At this moment, it seemed like a matter of course. However, in Ji Yuan's heart, strictly speaking, they were not in the right this time.
"You! You are courting death! Huang Gu Monster King, if you don't help me, the immortals will laugh at us, and we are the only monsters left!"
The man in the animal skin coat had no intention of standing by and watching anymore, and he started laughing wildly.
“Hahahahahaha… It’s said that the Weimei Sect is also famous for being unkind in the immortal world. It seems to be true. Since you are seeking death today, I will grant your wish. Roar—”
As he roared, the man's demonic energy almost turned into tangible flames, burning the entire sky as if it were on fire. His animal skin clothes began to stretch continuously, and the hair on his body continued to grow. His body stretched and expanded in all directions, eventually turning into a giant leopard with a body of hundreds of feet long, revealing its true form. Although it was still very small compared to the Sky-Devouring Beast, it was much stronger than the Sky-Devouring Beast under the sweeping of his terrifying demonic energy.
"This Sky Devouring Beast is so huge. After it is killed, it will be enough for all the monsters within a thousand miles to have a feast, devour the spiritual essence in its body, and get a taste of the immortal energy. Hahaha..."
"good!"
One of the two demon kings revealed his true form, and with a loud bang, he jumped directly onto the back of the Sky-Devouring Beast. He waved his claws to tear a piece of blood, causing the Sky-Devouring Beast to twist and struggle; the other one directly transformed a sword from his back and rushed towards Jiang Xueling like a meteor. The demonic energy was condensed into a sharp sword light, and the momentum was like a rainbow and it was difficult to resist.
