Originally, there had only been one Monster Loach in the Primal Zone, and it had a power level of over 300,000. Along with almost ten other Enlighter realm astral beasts, they had formed a group of astral beasts that had invaded Ironblood Weave. However, ever since the Celestial Beast Empire had sent reinforcements, several more powerful astral beasts had appeared. There was the Enlighter realm Amethyst Beast, as well as the Void Thunderbeast that had been guarding the energy gap. All of these beasts had come from the Celestial Beast Empire, and now, another terrifying astral beast with a power level of over 350,000 had appeared — the Three-Tailed Greedbeast.
The moment the Three-Tailed Greedbeast appeared, all the behemoths in the starry skies submitted. Even Monster Loach felt somewhat flustered when facing the Three-Tailed Greedbeast.
The Three-Tailed White Centipede was a strange giant beast wrapped in a white skeleton. Its three tails danced in the starry sky, creating layers of ripples.
It was rumored that in the Celestial Beast Empire, the Three-Tailed Greedbeast was extremely bloodthirsty. Now that the empire had sent it out, it represented their determination to conquer the Outerverse.
Aside from the Three-Tailed Greedbeast, there was also Cursewind, who was ranked on Skymender's List, and Skymender's disciple, Tian Hou, as well as five Enlighter realm astral beasts.
This was an unstoppable force.
Cursewind's true form was a blue lion. He had a pair of strange eyes. His left eye was wind, and his right eye was fire. The surface of his body was suffused with an extremely high temperature. Every step he took caused space to distort and even crack open.
The Three-Tailed Greedbeast did not stay in the Primal Zone for long, and it led all of the other beasts towards Ironblood Weave.
Only Cursewind looked at Lu Yin's planet with interest. There was a strange look in his eyes, as this was a phenomenon, but it had been suppressed. There was no need to rush, as this human was able to produce a phenomenon when he broke through, which meant that he was very talented. Cursewind would deal with Lu Yin after conquering Ironblood Weave.
In the Three-Tailed Greedbeast's eyes, no matter how talented Lu Yin was, he was still just an Explorer, so he wasn't much of a threat. As for the corpse, there was no need to be anxious. Right now, the most important thing was to conquer the human Outerverse. The Greedbeast had made a military order to the Imperial Tutor, so it had to capture the corpse as soon as possible.
Monster Loach had sent a Hunter realm astral beast to guard Lu Yin. Regardless of whether or not Lu Yin had successfully broken through, the Hunter realm astral beasts would not let him off. The most important thing was still that desiccated corpse, as it was too strange. They could only wait for the Three-Tailed Greedbeast to deal with it.
As for the energy gap, it was still guarded by the Void Thunderbeast. No one could destroy it.
At Seasons Fort, the universe trembled as a massive white skeletal tail pierced through the holes in the sourcebox's danger zone. It tore through the void and shattered the pass.
Liu Qiuyu was taken aback. This was an elite with a combat power of more than 300,000.
Bang Bang Bang
The transparent coffin fell from the pass. Inside the coffin, Wang Wen screamed for help.
But at this moment, there was no one left to save him. Viletree and Wen Qichen had both died in battle, and the only Enlighters left in Seasons Fort were Liu Qiuyu and Topmist.
The moment the Three-Tailed Greedbeast attacked, Seasons Fort was destined to be destroyed. Liu Qiuyu had already predicted this outcome.
Countless beasts invaded Seasons Fort, and all of the humans began to furiously counterattack.
Karon held the Reveal Sword and roared as he charged into the sky.
The Void Wanderers filled the sky, tearing apart countless spatial rifts and bringing out countless mutated beasts.
In outer space, the Three-Tailed Greedbeast roared, and its violent roar caused all of Seasons Fort to tremble.
Enormous cracks spread out along the pass, splitting the land and the planet apart. It was as if Seasons Fort had been split in half.
Liu Qiuyu's eyes widened. They couldn't stop this old monster. Aside from Elder Lohar, no one else could stop him, but Elder Lohar would definitely be blocked by the other beasts. Seasons Fort was finished.
He hurriedly charged towards Wang Wen, wanting to throw him out of Seasons Fort. Even if everyone else died, Wang Wen could not die.
Suddenly, a shockwave swept out, and Liu Qiuyu hurriedly retreated. The void in front of him was distorted by the extreme heat, and it gradually began to boil.
A blue lion stepped through outer space and appeared in front of Liu Qiuyu. "Cursewind of Skymender's List. Please enlighten me."
Liu Qiuyu's eyes narrowed. "Junior, do you really think that you can stand on the same level as the Ten Arbiters? How dare you challenge an Enlighter?"
Cursewind raised his lion head. "What Ten Arbiters? Once we break through the separation between the Innerverse and Outerverse, I'll slaughter all of them." The hurricane in his left eye then transformed into a violent shockwave that tore through the void and swept towards Liu Qiuyu.
Liu Qiuyu slashed out with his sword, and sword qi tore through the hurricane as he faced Cursewind head-on.
Cursewind's right eye was filled with flames that even Liu Qiuyu was afraid of. This was Cursewind's innate gift, which allowed the wind to help the flames grow stronger. The hurricane outside of the flames howled as if the entire region was about to collapse.
Liu Qiuyu's gaze turned cold, and his aura changed drastically. An irresistible pressure condensed and transformed into a sword that pierced through the void.
Cursewind hurriedly dodged, as his attack had been pierced through. If he hadn't dodged quickly enough, the sword would have pierced through his body.
He stared at Liu Qiuyu in shock; this human was actually so powerful.
At that moment, a white skeletal tail smashed down from the sky, slamming Liu Qiuyu into the ground of the stronghold. The tail then pierced through the stronghold and into outer space below.
The Three-Tailed Greedbeast's cold gaze swept past Cursewind as its other two tails whipped towards Seasons Fort.
With a bang, Aden's thunder shield, which had been reinforced by his nine lined battle force, was easily sent flying. The thunder shield shattered into pieces, and Aden spat out a mouthful of blood. It was unknown whether he was still alive.
No one could stop the Three-Tailed Greedbeast.
Elsewhere, on land, a youth had encountered Tian Hou. His name was Lin Le, and he was the former senior of the Innerverse's Myriad Swords Peak. His seniority was even higher than Wendy Yushan's, and he was now a Cruiser with a power level of 80,000.
It should have been easy for a Cruiser to deal with an Explorer, but Lin Le had encountered Tian Hou, and no matter how he attacked, he couldn't harm Tian Hou in the slightest.
Tian Hou merged into the void, and all of Lin Le's attacks were ineffective.
This was Lin Le's first time encountering such a situation, and Tian Hou's methods sent a chill down his spine.
"You should be afraid," Tian Hou inexplicably said.
Lin Le's pupils changed, and he became sluggish and confused. The sword in his hand fell to the ground.
Tian Hou approached Lin Le step by step, and then he raised a hand and pressed it against Lin Le's body. "Devour." Just as he finished speaking, sword qi streaked past, piercing through Tian Hou and tearing the ground apart. Liu Zhan walked out with a serious expression.
Tian Hou turned to look at Liu Zhan calmly. "The Liu family again."
Liu Zhan's eyes were cold. "You're Tian Hou."
Tian Hou was hidden under a black robe, and most people would not recognize him. However, the Liu family was an exception. This was because one of the Liu family's headmasters who had cultivated the Thirteen Swords had been devoured by Tian Hou. The Liu family had an unforgettable hatred for Tian Hou.
"Your Liu family only has the Thirteen Swords that are passable," Tian Hou said indifferently.
At that moment, Lin Le recovered and panted heavily. He picked up his sword and looked at Tian Hou in humiliation.
As a swordsman, he had actually dropped his sword. This was a great humiliation.
"Even if Seasons Fort falls today, I'll kill you. Killing Tian Hou will be a huge blow to the Celestial Beast Empire," Liu Zhan said coldly.
Tian Hou was indifferent. "It's useless. Master has prophesied that I will not die in this battle."
"Is that so?" Liu Zhan stabbed out.
However, the sword pierced through Tian Hou, but it was unable to injure him. Tian Hou's figure slowly disappeared, and he could no longer be seen.
Liu Zhan was unwilling to accept this outcome. Since ancient times, Tian Hou's legend had been a disgrace to the Sword Sect. He had heard many rumors about Tian Hou, and the most recent one was during the Astral Combat Academy's Tournament of the Strongest, where Tian Hou had been defeated by Lu Yin. Liu Zhan had believed that Lu Yin would be able to defeat Tian Hou, and as a peak Hunter, he should not have any problems either. However, he had underestimated Tian Hou's strength.
Seasons Fort was collapsing as the Three-Tailed Greedbeast frantically destroyed the stronghold. Countless people had died.
Topmist gritted his teeth, as he did not want to die. When he saw the Three-Tailed Greedbeast's tail whip towards him, he cursed under his breath. He then carefully took out an ancient box and opened it. "Seniors, I'm sorry. This disciple was forced to do this." He then reached into the box, revealing a thin layer of a bloody handprint.
Across from him, the Enlighter beast shattered the heavens as it charged towards Topmist. Topmist suddenly looked up, and his face was pale as if he was enduring extreme pain. He then roared and reached out with his right hand from the box. His palm was covered in boiling blood, and the bloody handprint had completely fused into his palm.
In an instant, the heavens froze. All living beings, regardless of whether they were humans or beasts, whether they were Sentinels, Melders, or terrifying powerhouses with power levels of 300,000, seemed to feel the heavens' might. Everyone froze.
The sky was collapsing. This was what all living beings felt.
It was not just limited to Seasons Fort, but also the entire Ironblood Weave. It even extended to Eastly Weave and Northcastle Weave.
Topmist howled in anguish as his palm burned under the layer of blood. The unbearable pain caused him to attack the Three-Tailed Greedbeast without hesitation.
The beast did not move or resist, and it simply allowed Topmist's palm to strike it. Its giant body was instantly shattered, but Topmist's power did not diminish. He continued his attack through space and even pierced through the danger zone of the sourcebox.
Countless people stared at Topmist in a daze as the bloody water poured down from the sky. This person had just killed a powerhouse with a power level of over 300,000 with a single palm strike.
Liu Qiuyu looked up from the ground, his eyes filled with indescribable shock.
Wang Wen's mouth fell open, as this was unexpected.
Topmist was still howling in anguish. His palm was gone, and it had been completely incinerated.
The ancient box had also cracked open, but there was nothing inside. The Bloody Handprint had disappeared after it had been used up.
With the Three-Tailed Greedbeast dead, the beast quickly retreated.
Cursewind fearfully rushed out of Seasons Fort. The humans had hidden themselves too deeply, and who knew what other power vessels they had? That handprint had terrified Cursewind, as it had never felt such a powerful force before.
Everyone relaxed and rejoiced that they had survived. They had all thought that they would definitely die.
Liu Qiuyu soared into the sky and looked at Topmist.
Countless people looked at Topmist, as he was the biggest contributor to their survival this time.
Wang Wen walked out of the coffin and walked over to Topmist to praise him.
Topmist felt bitter. That was Mafioso Planet's Bloody Handprint, which had been passed down since ancient times. It was already very thin, and he had only used it once. He had never thought that it would disappear after it was used up. It had been his trump card.
However, Topmist did not reveal any of this, and he solemnly put away the box. Aside from him, no one else knew that the Bloody Handprint was gone, and he could still use it to intimidate others.
He had thought that killing the Three-Tailed Greedbeast would be enough to intimidate Seasons Fort for a few days, but who would have thought that the astral beasts would invade again the very next day?
However, no powerhouse with a power level of over 300,000 appeared this time. Instead, there were two more Enlighter realm astral beasts. Using the Bloody Handprint to kill a powerhouse with a power level of over 300,000 was worth it, but using it to deal with an Enlighter realm astral beast was not worth it. The Astral Beast Domain was not stupid.
The astral beasts' determination to invade the Outerverse was too strong, and they seemed to be very impatient. Even if Topmist had a heaven-defying technique, he could not stop the astral beasts' determination.
Seasons Fort was on the verge of collapse.
