The three massive characters carved above the mountain gate—“Battle Formation Hall”—carried a strange kind of pressure.At first glance, they just looked like ordinary stone carvings. Nothing special. But the longer you stared, the more wrong it felt. Like something was quietly shifting underneath your thoughts.Each stroke of those characters seemed… sharp. Not literally, but in a way that made your instincts twitch. Almost like invisible blades were hidden in the lines, waiting.And when you looked at all three together, it got even stranger. They didn’t feel like simple writing anymore. More like part of a complete formation—something alive, breathing in a silent way.A faint oppressive aura lingered around the gate. Quiet, but heavy. Like an unspoken warning: don’t treat this place casually.Ye Wuqian stood at the base of the mountain, eyes fixed on the plaque.After a moment, he spoke in a calm voice.“Those three words… could they actually contain a battle formation?”He sounded

The glow from the Battle Formation Fate Crystal Ball had already reached its peak. Honestly, it felt like it couldn’t get any brighter.And then—crack.It split.Right in Ye Wuqian’s hand, the crystal shattered completely.Just like that, everything changed.The massive light trapped inside it didn’t fade or scatter. No, it broke free. Like something that had been locked away for ages and finally couldn’t hold itself back anymore.It burst out into the great hall in one violent wave of brilliance.But strangely… it didn’t feel dangerous.It was warm.Really warm.Not the kind of heat that burns—but the kind that makes you relax without realizing it. Like stepping into sunlight after a long winter.For a moment, the entire hall felt… soft.Almost comforting.Zhai Qing and Ziling were both standing there in that glow. Their bodies shook slightly, but not from fear.More like… emotional shock.It felt like sinking into a calm ocean that just held you gently. Like going back to being a ch

A faint hum hung in the air. Barely noticeable at first… as if the world itself were holding its breath.Then everything changed.A sudden burst of crimson firelight exploded outward, swallowing the quiet forest clearing in an instant. It wasn’t soft or beautiful. No, it hit like a hammer. Fierce. Violent. Almost like the flames had a will of their own.Four blurred figures moved at the same time.They split apart in perfect sync, each one shooting toward a different direction around a single point. So fast it was hard to follow—only streaking afterimages were left behind, cutting through the air like burning trails.And then—They struck.Boom.The ground let out a deep, heavy rumble as four streams of crimson flame slammed into the same target from different angles. The impact was brutal. The earth caved in immediately, and a wave of scorching heat rolled outward like a firestorm wind.When everything finally settled down, a deep crater was left behind.About ten paces wide.The ins

Five massive shadows ripped through the gray horizon.Each one was huge—easily twenty paces tall. And honestly, “beast” didn’t feel like the right word anymore. Their bodies were twisted, corrupted, wrapped in thick black death qi that kept curling and writhing like smoke with a mind of its own. Every step they took left behind a rotting, decayed mark on the ground.They weren’t alive.Not really.But they weren’t dead either.Something in-between… something worse.A heavy killing intent spread out the moment they charged, crushing the already silent Burial Heaven Secret Domain even further.From behind Darian Kaelthorn, Dathric Valen narrowed his eyes slightly.“Our luck really isn’t great,” he said casually. “We’ve barely entered and already run into death demon beasts.”No panic in his voice, though. Not even a hint.If anything… he sounded a little excited.A month of closed-door cultivation had changed all of them. Now every fight wasn’t a disaster waiting to happen—it was a chan

The moment the Bloodthirsty Dragon Alligator fell, the pressure around Ye Wuque and the others eased a little.Just a little—but enough that everyone could finally breathe without feeling like a mountain was sitting on their chests.That suffocating tension? It loosened, like a rope that had been pulled too tight, finally getting a bit of slack.That beast wasn’t simple either. It came straight from the Blood Hell, its body covered in thick, terrifying keratin armor. Honestly, that defense was ridiculous—normal attacks would’ve taken forever to break through it. Maybe even turned into a fight where nobody knew who would come out alive.But Ye Wuque’s Golden Finger Sky Calamity Kill changed everything.That piercing force… it went straight through the tough defense like it wasn’t even there.Without it, things would’ve been a lot messier. That much was obvious.The group stood there quietly for a moment, looking at the huge corpse on the ground.It was massive—easily over eighteen zhan
