Chapter 422 The Great Battle of Foundation Establishment in the Heavenly Dao (4)
Xuan Yan Turtle is now truly convinced by Shen Rugo and completely believes in what Lie Tian Crocodile said, regarding Shen Rugo as the reincarnation of an ancient god.
For these demonic beasts, being able to follow a true ancient god is the greatest opportunity.
Otherwise, relying on their own cultivation, they probably wouldn't even be able to leave this secret realm, let alone truly embark on the path of cultivation and achieve the status of a demon immortal.
"Old turtle head, it all depends on your performance."
"If you behave well and please me, I'll naturally put in a good word for you with the Immortal Lord. Otherwise, you'll stay in this secret realm for tens of thousands, even millions of years, until you finally turn into a handful of dust!"
The Sky-Splitter Crocodile suddenly became extremely arrogant and sneered.
"Of course, of course!"
If you're willing to speak up for me, you'll naturally reap the rewards.
"Look at this snow-covered flower I've collected for countless years. It can enhance the essence and physique of demonic beasts. Why don't you take it and give it a try?"
As the Xuan Yan Turtle spoke, it spat out a flower from its mouth.
As soon as the flower appeared, it exuded a powerful aura, revealing itself to be a celestial herb over a million years old.
This is a treasure that the Xuan Yan Turtle has kept for tens of thousands of years without using it, intending to use it only when it breaks through to the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.
This immortal herb is an open secret among all the Nascent Soul demons in the secret realm, and the Sky-Splitting Crocodile has long coveted it.
Upon seeing it, it was overjoyed and immediately snatched it without hesitation, saying repeatedly, "Old turtle, now there are only the two of us left among the Nascent Soul realm demon beasts in the entire secret realm. If I don't help you, who will I help!"
Don't worry, with your sincerity, I will definitely do my best to speak well of you in front of the Immortal Lord and make her accept you, so that she can take both of us away together!
Just think about it, as long as we follow the immortals, we can roam freely across the vast heavens and earth. Not only will we be able to escape this secret realm, but we can also embark on a broader and freer true immortal path..."
The Sky-Splitter Crocodile was so happy that it talked non-stop, completely disregarding whether Shen Rugo would agree.
In fact, not only the Xuan Yan Turtle, but even it itself was unsure whether Shen Rugo would take it away.
Upon hearing this, Xuan Yan Gui was naturally moved to tears, repeatedly expressing his gratitude. At the same time, he hoped that Shen Rugo could unleash her full power and defeat Wu Xuemei.
Meanwhile, atop the sacred mountain, the longer Wu Xuemei fought, the more shocked and furious she became.
She discovered that even when she pushed the Devouring Demon Art to its limit, her speed of absorbing the power of the Heavenly Dao was still less than 30% of Shen Rugo's!
Shen Rugo's Five Elements Nine Revolutions Divine Art has an extremely high affinity with the power of the Heavenly Dao, and its refining efficiency is nothing short of incredible.
The two figures could be seen constantly moving around the sacred mountain. Of the nine steps that circled the mountain, the fifth and sixth steps had completely disappeared, and then the third step also vanished completely.
As for the light and shadow on the first, second, and seventh steps, they became increasingly dim, with very little energy remaining.
Wu Xuemei was extremely anxious and immediately launched a fierce attack, forcing Shen Rugo back, while she herself rushed towards the eighth step with all her might.
However, Shen Rugo had already anticipated her movements.
Just as Wu Xuemei stepped onto the eighth step, a despairing light suddenly shone beneath her feet and around her!
This time, not two or three array plates, but a full five array plates were activated by Shen Rugo at the same time.
Two trapping formations, two illusion formations, and a Nine Dragons Fire Formation brimming with killing intent!
The five formations overlapped, creating layers of light and shadow, distorting and deforming space. The fire dragon once again displayed its divine power, instantly engulfing Wu Xuemei.
"Hahaha, Wu Xuemei, you're such a fool, you've brought this upon yourself."
Shen Rugo stood outside the formation, watching Wu Xuemei struggle and fight her way through the formation, her demonic energy scattered by the fire dragon, looking disheveled. She laughed loudly, "Knowing that my formation is not easy to bear, you still willingly go in again and again."
"Do you think you've lived too long, or do you feel I don't have enough array formations?"
"Shen! Ru! Ge!"
Wu Xuemei roared like a wild beast from within the formation, her demonic energy surging with rage. A sweet taste rose in her throat as she spat out another mouthful of blood, staining the demonic energy before her red. "I will definitely kill you! I will definitely kill you!"
She cursed wildly, unleashing a torrent of vicious words.
Shen Rugo said no more. While maintaining the operation of the formation and increasing the power of the fire, she stepped onto the eighth step and began to frantically extract the energy.
Five great formations, plus the Nine Dragons Fire Formation at its full power!
Wu Xuemei felt a chill in her heart. She knew very well that by the time she broke through these five layers of formations, Shen Rugo would probably have already snatched all the power of the Heavenly Dao!
By then, she will have no chance of turning the tables!
"No! I will never accept this!"
Extreme anger and despair overwhelmed her reason, and a glint of madness and determination flashed in her eyes!
"With my demonic blood, I offer my demonic soul! Supreme Demon Lord, grant me the power to destroy the world!"
Wu Xuemei screamed and chanted ancient and evil incantations.
She actually risked damaging her own demonic essence to forcibly activate a secret technique!
She had previously absorbed a large amount of Heavenly Dao power, reaching the half-step Golden Core realm, and even had one foot in the threshold of the Golden Core realm, making her strength far beyond what she used to be.
At this moment, the use of the secret technique is extremely powerful!
"Buzz!"
A terrifying demonic power that sent shivers down one's spine suddenly erupted from her body!
The demonic energy around her was no longer black, but turned dark red, like congealed blood, filled with violence, destruction and misfortune!
"Roar!"
Dark red demonic energy condensed behind her, vaguely forming a huge demonic shadow.
Although the demonic shadow remained blurry, its domineering and ruthless will caused the entire secret realm to ripple.
"Give it to me! Break it!"
Wu Xuemei's eyes were bloodshot, and she ripped forward with both hands!
"Tsk-!"
A loud thud, like cloth being torn apart, was heard!
The five-layered array shattered like glass under the impact of the dark red demonic energy!
The light barriers of the two trapping formations and the two illusion formations collapsed instantly!
Even the nine ferocious, roaring fire dragons let out a mournful cry the moment they came into contact with the dark red demonic energy, and were directly eroded and devoured by the demonic energy!
In just over ten breaths, the five great formations collapsed and vanished into thin air!
At this moment, Shen Rugo had just extracted all the vast power of the Heavenly Dao from the eighth step and poured it into her eighteen divine mountain-like Dao foundations!
At the very instant that this massive amount of pure Heavenly Dao power surged in,
"boom!!"
Within Shen Rugo's dantian, it was as if a world-shaking change had occurred, and a loud bang that only she could hear exploded out!
Those eighteen divine mountain-like foundations, which had been washed, baptized, and infused with the endless power of the Heavenly Dao, finally reached a certain critical point at this moment!
They are no longer illusory light and shadow, nor semi-substantial energy bodies, but have completely transformed into real existences, radiating an aura of eternal immortality and suppressing all heavens—the foundation of the Dao!
The eighteen Dao Foundations are all majestic and imposing, with countless innate Dao patterns flowing across them, surrounded by the laws of the Five Elements, and even permeated with wisps of chaotic energy!
They all burst forth with endless, dazzling celestial light, a light that was sacred, pure, and supreme, illuminating Shen Rugo's entire dantian and qi sea as if it were a sacred world at the beginning of creation!
