"Why do I feel like you're scolding me?"
The demon rolled his eyes at Jade In The Book, but he had a different feeling in his heart. "The past twenty-odd years are really different from thirty thousand years ago. I used to think that as long as I'm strong, I can dominate the world. I don't have anything to pursue. But after following this kid for twenty-odd years, things have changed."
Jade In The Book smiled. "Let's deal with the trouble here first. There's still a heavy responsibility waiting for this kid in this world."
At this moment, Yu Luocha also looked at the demon with a strange expression and smiled gently. She suddenly recalled the time when they were in the desolate forest. At that time, the demon was still very arrogant, acting as if the heavens were the boss and he was the boss. However, he still saved Qin Shi several times.
"Phew, what should come will eventually come." The demon raised his eyes and looked at Nine Demon Kings.
Nine Demon Kings looked at the demon in disdain. "Tch, Devouring Heaven, you're not my opponent right now."
"Nine Break Heaven Shattering Destruction!"
Nine Demon Kings called out to the chaotic demonic clouds. In that instant, a ravine appeared in the sky. The ravine was dyed pitch-black in that instant. It was as if a black river had appeared in the sky that led to an abyss.
Looking at the black ravine, all the experts of the Beast Realm clenched their fists and their eyes turned solemn. They could feel an extremely terrifying power coming from the ravine. It was as if even the heavens and earth were going to shrink by half.
"This is the Reincarnation Intent!" The Nirvana Flame around the nine heavens trembled.
He took a deep breath and said, "Reincarnation Intent, crossing life and death. This power is truly too powerful."
Long Tian also nodded. "Yes, I wonder if little friend Jade In The Book and the Demon Sovereign can stop it … If they can't, I'm afraid that our Beast Realm won't have a chance to get through this calamity."
All the experts of the Beast Realm felt their hearts tighten. Right now, they knew that this battle was no longer something that they could control. This battle had already risen to the level of the survival of the world in ancient times. It was a true ancient battle. Although it wasn't as powerful as the calamity thirty thousand years ago, it was enough to decide the future of the world and the survival of the Beast Realm.
"Since this kid wants to fight, then let's fight!"
The evil spirit roared at this time, and its figure suddenly changed into a ninety-thousand-meter-tall phantom. The nine-eyed Qilin, at this time, had already opened its eight eyes.
Jade In The Book teased him with her lily-white hands and smiled sweetly, "Believe in that kid, he can always turn the tide!"
On the dazzling Starry Sky Sword, tens of thousands of formation diagrams covered the sky.
Rumble!
In an instant, the entire Beast World seemed to be trembling. Countless parts of the Beast World shattered as blood clouds covered the sky. This was a calamity for the Beast World.
Innumerable ravines appeared in the Beast World. Even the sea around the Beast World was trembling. Mountains and rivers were collapsing. At this moment, the Beast World was plunged into misery. The experts of the three alliances were fighting with their lives on the line.
The blood cloud in the sky gradually spread at this moment. As countless ferocious demon remnant souls charged into it, the Demonic Slaughter Qi within the blood cloud continued to grow stronger. In the end, it covered over half of the Beast Realm. There was no longer any light in any place that was covered by the blood cloud. There was only endless darkness and a chilling feeling of death.
"Is this the blood cloud?!"
Countless experts of the Beast Realm widened their eyes in anger. They could feel that their land was gradually being stripped away from the Wasteland Continent and being devoured.
Long Tian sighed, "Thirty thousand years ago, the Human Sovereign did not hesitate to destroy his bloodline and body to stop this calamity. Can we really stop it this time?"
The war in the Beast Realm finally broke out.
At this moment, the blood cloud spread out in all directions from the Beast Realm. Countless ferocious demons seemed to have gone crazy, fusing into the blood cloud like moths to a flame.
At this moment, the golden pagoda that Qin Shi was in became the only pure land between the heavens and earth. The evil spirit, Jade In The Book, Yu Luocha, Long Tian, Xiao Cai, and everyone in the Beast Realm firmly protected the golden pagoda at the center.
Because they all knew that the victory of this war depended on whether Qin Shi could successfully break through the Death Realm.
At the same time, Qin Shi, who was enveloped by the nine-layered golden pagoda, was also giving it his all.
This was the first time that Qin Shi felt such a heavy pressure. He knew that he had to succeed this time, and he had to be fast. The Beast Realm didn't give him much time. If he couldn't break through before the blood cloud enveloped the entire Beast Realm, then the Beast Realm would disappear completely and be devoured by the void that covered the sky of the Wasteland Continent.
When that time came, the blood cloud would descend, and the heavens and earth would fall into eternal darkness.
"I have to hurry."
In the golden pagoda, the blood jade rose from his hand.
Qin Shi looked at the blood jade. The blood jade was filled with a power that seemed to be able to awaken a certain kind of power in his body.
"Is the Death Realm finally going to break through?"
Qin Shi took a deep breath and closed his eyes. At this moment, the blood jade suddenly melted and enveloped Qin Shi like an endless ocean.
In the ocean, Qin Shi felt an unprecedented warmth. It was as if he was bathed in divine light. Qin Shi could clearly feel that the blood jade was passing through all the bottlenecks in his body, including the only shackle of the Death Realm.
At this moment, Qin Shi closed his eyes and tried his best to feel the changes in the aura around him. Very soon, he was completely immersed in the blood sea. However, in the blood sea, he didn't need to do anything intentionally. There was an endless amount of power gathering towards him.
The blood sea was like a huge energy whirlpool. These whirlpools didn't seem to have found a center, but when Qin Shi appeared, they immediately became excited. Then, with Qin Shi as the center of the whirlpool, they rotated extremely quickly. As the whirlpool rotated, thumb-sized crystals gradually condensed and integrated into Qin Shi's body through Qin Shi's mouth and nose.
"So comfortable!"
Qin Shi couldn't help but moan. These crystals made Qin Shi feel an unprecedented sense of freedom. It was as if all the weight in his body had disappeared at this moment.
These crystals flowed along the blood vessels in Qin Shi's body like little spirits. Then, as if they had found a place they were satisfied with, they quickly gathered in Qin Shi's dantian.
At this moment, the world in his dantian was occupied by these small crystals.
When the crystals appeared, Qin Shi clearly felt a strong power of death erupt from his body. It was as if ancient patterns were imprinted in his sea of consciousness. He seemed to have possessed this power for a long time, but he had never awakened it. But at this moment, it was as if he had awakened from a deep slumber.
Seeing this power, Qin Shi couldn't help but be surprised. "Death Qi?"
"In this blood jade, there is a comprehension of the Death Realm left by the ancestor?"
Qin Shi was surprised when he felt the gathering of the death qi.
"Bang!"
But suddenly, when Qin Shi tried to circulate some of the death qi, Qin Shi suffered a great pain. His facial features twisted. The heavy pain made him feel as if he had really died. Qin Shi's eyes suddenly sunk. The scene in front of him kept changing. What he saw was his own death again and again.
"Bang!"
At this moment, a flame ignited in Qin Shi's Dantian.
Qin Shi's nascent soul had died in the fire, and then it had been reborn in the fire. Qin Shi felt that if it hadn't been for this Nirvana Flame, he would have died.
He was afraid that he would really be devoured by the Death Qi this time.
"That was close."
When Qin Shi woke up, he was already drenched in sweat. Although he did not die, the deathly aura that he had just condensed in his body had completely dissipated.
"Did I fail?" Qin Shi couldn't help but frown as he looked at his empty dantian.
Qin Shi couldn't figure it out. Everything was so natural just now. Why did he suddenly fail when he wanted to circulate the Death Qi?
"Let's try again."
In the nine-storey golden pagoda, Qin Shi closed his eyes slightly again. The blood-colored sea revolved around him again, condensing into crystals again and gathering in Qin Shi's dantian. A strong sense of death almost enveloped Qin Shi's surroundings.
Qin Shi sat quietly in the golden pagoda. At this moment, he was surrounded by a chilling aura of death. No one could feel a trace of vitality from him. If it wasn't for the fact that he was still breathing, anyone would have thought that he was just a corpse that had passed away.
But every time the Death Qi appeared, it would suddenly disappear. Then, Qin Shi's dantian would be empty again.
"Failed again?"
Qin Shi furrowed his brows once again. He had already lost count of how many times he had tried this. However, every time he condensed the deathly aura, the deathly aura would escape his body like a torrent the moment he tried to circulate it.
Qin Shi realized that he could only condense the Death Qi, but he couldn't use it no matter what.
"I keep failing, but this shouldn't be the case. If it was just at the beginning, it was because I wasn't familiar with the Death Qi. After so many times, I have a very good understanding of the Death Qi now. Even when I broke through to the Life Realm, this didn't happen."
Qin Shi couldn't figure out where he went wrong. Why couldn't he circulate the Death Qi? He was so close, but he just couldn't break through.
Most importantly, the current situation did not allow him to delay any further. The current situation in the Beast Realm did not allow him to continue experimenting. He had to find the root of the problem.
However, at this moment, Qin Shi's eyes suddenly focused. What he saw was that piece of blood jade. Within the blood jade, there was actually a faint silhouette. The silhouette was currently looking at him warmly. It was extremely ancient, yet it was also extremely warm.
The shadow was only the size of a palm. It smiled faintly from the blood jade. "Little guy, we meet again."
Qin Shi was slightly shocked when he saw the thin shadow. A hint of disbelief appeared in his eyes.
"Ancestor …"
