Chapter 141: Slaughter Begins

  Xiao Bai suddenly appeared on Yang Tian's shoulder, his big eyes filled with joy as he looked at the mountains and forests. Having been confused for a long time, he was finally released.

  "Little guy... I'm glad you're here," Yang Tian rubbed Xiao Bai's head, his gaze sweeping around. This mountain range hid many fierce beasts with strong cultivation. Xiao Bai was just their nemesis.

  Whoosh! Xiao Bai's face was full of joy as his figure flashed continuously through the mountains and forests. A trace of demonic aura emanated from him, causing the surrounding fierce beasts to go mad, trembling all over, and fleeing wildly through the mountains.

  "How is this little guy so fast?" Looking at Xiao Bai's joyful figure, Yang Tian exclaimed in his heart. He fully activated the Carefree Eight Desolations Step but couldn't keep up with Xiao Bai's pace, and Xiao Bai hadn't even used his full strength.

  Yang Tian wandered through the mountains for about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea before finding a quite concealed place. He used his broken sword to carve out a cave and directly crawled in.

  Sitting cross-legged in the cave, Yang Tian took a deep breath and checked his physical wounds. The injuries were not severe, just a few broken ribs. It would have been more serious for someone else.

  "The Yin Yang Union Sect, the Ancient Li Clan, the Ancient Sanctuary!" Yang Tian clenched his fists, a fierce look flashing in his eyes. Although Yang Xiao said it wasn't serious, his divine soul was injured and not easy to recover.

  "Fortunately, these families are all discussing matters concerning the Fallen Demon Land. Otherwise, the one who came would have been a War Emperor," Yang Tian exhaled a breath of frustration and murmured, "Can't stay for long, need to leave this place as soon as possible..."

  The endless mountains had been quiet for some time since the last attack on the Fallen Demon Land, but today they finally showed some signs of life.

  Yang Tian was being pursued and fled into the Hundred Thousand Mountains. Wang Lao Mo returned with a gloomy face. Yang Tian was known for his concealment techniques. If it weren't for the Heaven-Supervising Seal discovering his disguise, Yang Tian would have already blended in.

  The Yin Yang Union Sect had dispatched the younger generation in force, vowing to capture Yang Tian alive. Many major families took action, with the Ancient Li Clan and the Ancient Sanctuary being the most aggressive.

  The outskirts of the Hundred Thousand Mountains spanned nearly tens of millions of miles. Capturing a person skilled in concealment within them was like looking for a needle in a haystack...

  Inside the cave, after a day of rest, Yang Tian's energy and spirit had reached their peak, and his internal qi had improved slightly.

  "Uncle Xiao, can you detect some War King powerhouses in advance?" Sitting in the Ancestral Dragon Ring, Yang Tian looked at Yang Xiao, a thought emerging in his heart.

  "Yes, as long as it's not a half-step great power, they can't escape my divine soul detection," Yang Xiao said with a smile beside him, seemingly aware of Yang Tian's thoughts.

  "That makes it easy. I'll play with them for a while," Yang Tian nodded, a hint of joy appearing on his face.

  "Oh, and you must practice Altering Heaven and Earth diligently. Your cultivation is too low right now, and you can't unleash much of its power. Otherwise, the replica of the Heaven-Supervising Seal wouldn't have discovered you," Yang Xiao said after pondering for a while.

  "The Heaven-Supervising Seal!" Hearing this, Yang Tian scratched his head. The name of this treasure was indeed domineering, naming it after supervising the heavens, arrogantly borderless.

  "They are using a replica. The original Heaven-Supervising Seal is a divine artifact, originally from the Tianji Sect in the Central Region. I don't know if the Tianji Sect has been exterminated," Yang Xiao sighed, seemingly familiar with the Tianji Sect.

  "Tsk tsk... a divine artifact..." Hearing this, Yang Tian smacked his lips. The Heaven-Supervising Seal could detect a person's location, truly a marvelous treasure.

  In the endless mountains, under Yang Xiao's guidance, Yang Tian traveled through the forests for a long time, gradually approaching a group of people.

  A dozen people wandered ahead. When they noticed some movement, their gazes instantly converged on the figure ahead.

  "Yang Tian!" Gu Qi licked his lips, his eyes filled with heat, looking at Yang Tian like a treasure trove, thinking to himself how astonishing his luck was to have stumbled upon him directly.

  "Calling me grandfather, what for?" Yang Tian scratched his head and cursed, but his figure was not slow as he sprinted towards a massive mountain.

  "Capture him alive!" A sinister look appeared on Gu Qi's face as he chased forward, with the dozen or so figures behind him also surging forward.

  "You want to capture me alive? Let's see if you can do it," Yang Tian laughed loudly, his figure bursting into the mountains, specifically seeking areas where fierce beasts gathered.

  This mountain range was a million li in size, with relatively few people inside. The chasing group often heard the roars of fierce beasts as they pursued relentlessly.

  Xiao Bai led the way, and the fierce beasts were too busy hiding to even think about attacking.

  Yang Tian leaped over a mountain, casting a mocking glance at the noisy crowd behind him, then his figure shifted and plunged into another forest.

  "This little beast!" Gu Qi's anger burned fiercely within him. Along the way, he had encountered several waves of fierce beast attacks, although they were all low-level beasts, it still delayed him considerably.

  "Gu Qi, my clansman, I think it's better to notify the family," a powerful young man beside him said, his gaze sweeping over the mountains that had already lost trace, frowning as he spoke slowly.

  "Notifying the family... I don't think that's necessary..." Hearing this, Gu Qi sneered. Such a great merit couldn't be easily given to others.

  The faces of the young men beside him changed slightly, cursing Gu Qi in their hearts for being shameless. They couldn't even catch up, yet he still wanted to seek astonishing merit, but they didn't dare to speak out against him. Their status as elite disciples was far too different from Gu Qi's.

  "We'll split up and search. This little beast is only at the martial artist realm. Although he's fast, he's no match for us," Gu Qi ordered directly, and five or six teams spread out around them.

  "Yang Tian, this time I'm going to flay you alive!" Gu Qi sneered coldly, his eyes filled with malice, and he summoned a jade gourd. His body leaped onto the jade gourd and rushed forward rapidly.

  Inside a dark cave, Yang Tian's figure had just dived in when a very ethereal body swept out, glanced at the entrance, then waved his palm.

  Ahead, dozens of mid-level blood stones were placed near the cave entrance, arranged in an extremely mysterious manner. When the last blood stone landed, the entire cave seemed to be enveloped by a strange luster.

  "This is a formation that conceals qi. Rest inside for a while, and we'll act tonight," Yang Xiao said, then his figure returned to the Ancestral Dragon Ring.

  "This is a formation," Yang Tian walked over, observed for a while, and couldn't help but marvel. He casually laid out a formation, and Yang Xiao was indeed a master in the art of formations.

  "Uncle Xiao, can I learn formations now?" Yang Tian's consciousness appeared in the Ancestral Dragon Ring and asked.

  "You're not suitable to learn yet. Learning formations takes too much time. Wait until your cultivation improves before learning," Yang Xiao shook his head slightly and said indifferently.

  "Oh..." Hearing this, Yang Tian nodded and immediately walked forward, summoning a pill furnace and immersing himself in the art of alchemy...

  Night fell, and the sky was filled with twinkling stars, with strands of moonlight descending. In this quiet and peaceful night, occasionally a few sounds of breaking through the air could be heard.

  "Where has this little rascal gone?" A scolding voice exploded, and two figures sprang from behind, their faces looking displeased.

  "It's all Gu Qi's fault. If he had notified the elders, Yang Tian would have been captured by now," a young man cursed beside him. He was Gu Hai, an elite disciple of the sanctuary.

  In the cave behind them, a pair of dark eyes watched the two approaching. A hint of murderous intent flashed in Yang Tian's eyes. His entire qi was reined in, and the Altering Heaven and Earth technique could not only change qi fluctuations but also hide qi.

  The two drew closer, and suddenly, a white figure appeared before them. Xiao Bai bared his teeth and showed a lively look in his big eyes, his furry tail shaking.

  "Is this... a beast?" The two were startled, but when they saw that it was just a tiny beast, they relaxed and looked at the lively appearance of the small beast, a greed arising in their hearts.

  "You're hooked," Yang Tian licked his lips, a sinister smile appearing on his face as he watched Xiao Bai slowly retreat, unable to suppress a smile.

  "Whimper..." The small beast's face showed fear, shrinking back bit by bit.

  Gu Hai and the other person exchanged glances, their eyes filled with heat as they stepped forward. The Ancient Sanctuary also had beasts, but only those with astonishing talents had the qualifications to possess them.

  "Boom!..." At this moment, the dormant qi within Yang Tian's body awakened like a dragon, and the qi within his body burst forth without reservation, illuminating the dim world with rolling red light.

  With a fierce stomp, Yang Tian's figure appeared in front of the young man like a bolt of lightning, throwing a punch.

  Seeing this, the faces of the two young men changed drastically, but it was already too late. The protective light around their bodies was shattered by the overwhelming fist force, and a bowl-sized hole appeared in their chests as their bodies were sent flying backward.

  On the other side, Xiao Bai's body leaped up, claws flailing as he tore off Gu Hai's arm, blood spraying out immediately.

  "You... you are... Yang Tian!" Seeing the figure before them, the two disciples' faces changed drastically, and they exclaimed in shock. The energy within their bodies was rapidly diminishing, having been severely injured by the previous blow.

  "Congratulations, you guessed right, but there's no reward," Yang Tian shrugged and smiled as he walked forward step by step.

  "You little beast!" The two exchanged glances, and Wang Hai took out a golden long sword with golden patterns spreading on it, a semi-finished Dao weapon, while the other person took out a peak-level Xuan weapon.

  "Hehe, it really is a case of the tables turning. The Ancient Sanctuary isn't as wealthy as one imagines," Yang Tian said with a smile on his face as he looked at the two weapons.

  "Let's make this quick. People are coming from all around," Yang Xiao suddenly said.

  Hearing this, Yang Tian nodded, and a golden seal appeared on his head, shining brilliantly with astonishing divine patterns, and strands of red light descended.

  "What... what is this Golden Dragon Seal... how can you use it!" The thoughts of Gu Hai and the other person became sluggish. Each Dao weapon was imprinted with the soul of a strong cultivator, and outsiders would not dare to use it even if they obtained it.

  "You don't need to worry about this. I'll send you on your way first," Yang Tian smiled, and the Golden Dragon Seal shook violently, two brilliant red lights attacking out, burning and terrifying.

  "Chi!" Gu Hai and the other person's faces showed shock, and they dared not be careless, fully urging the weapons in their hands, with layers of luster wrapping around their bodies.

  Boom! The red light broke through their defensive weapons like a hot knife through butter. The peak-level Xuan weapon cracked and finally exploded with a bang, sending fragments flying in all directions.
