Master of Strange Dao

However, in the next moment, Emperor Dui waved the short stick in his hand, and the skull of an exotic beast on the stick opened its mouth and let out a roar.

In the sky, dense demonic Qi appeared out of thin air. A devil beast, thousands of feet tall, without skin and with flesh exposed, manifested from the demonic Qi.

The beast, resembling a gorilla but with four arms and a mouth on its belly, opened its mouth, stuck out its tongue, and licked its belly. The intense smell of blood mixed with demonic Qi roared in.

Yu Ziqing's expression changed slightly.

This was one of the few great calamities left in the Dingmao Era.

A devil from the Abyss broke out, unnoticed at first, devoured a large number of living beings, and transformed into a Great Devil almost at the Ninth Tier Peak.

Moreover, its skin and flesh were so tough that even if it was split in half, it could instantly recover, making it nearly impossible to kill.

Yu Ziqing had not resolved this catastrophe due to the significant power gap and the inability to summon enough Ninth Tier cultivators to deal with it.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Dui truly became devilized, transformed into the Earth Devil Venerate, and could even use the calamity to his advantage.

A Great Devil appeared, and then Emperor Dui continuously waved the short stick.

This time, however, Emperor Dui summoned nothing. The short stick seemed to come alive, suddenly elongating, and the exotic beast skull floated in mid-air.

In one strike, it penetrated the bodies of the three foreign powerhouses, devouring the remaining Ninth Tier incense cultivators.

The strength within the city's remaining non-Ninth Tier incense cultivators and Small Earth Deities was forcibly seized and devoured by the exotic beast skull's open mouth.

Emperor Dui's aura rose once again.

Taking this opportunity, Yu Ziqing immediately spoke.

"Fourteenth Brother, I want that devil's core."

Jia Shisi didn't ask why, and immediately gripped his blade with one hand. A brilliant Blade Gang spanned a hundred miles, like a huge blade that stretched for hundreds of miles, cleaving down from the sky.

In just the blink of an eye, the blade had already descended.

The massive devil beast, which had just gathered and let out a routine howl, suddenly froze in place.

Its gigantic body was split in two by the massive blade.

The Blade Gang acted like a huge barrier of light, separating the devil's left and right bodies.

With a flick of Jia Shisi's wrist, the massive Blade Gang shattered abruptly, and the terrifying energy it contained tore the devil apart into fragments on the spot.

A colossal blood rain hovered in mid-air, like a blood-soaked devilized lake, and before it fell, countless tiny Blade Gangs turned into Blade Qi, shredding it into dust.

Every drop of blood was forcibly shredded and evaporated, spreading across a radius of a hundred miles.

Then, the next moment, an invisible force gathered, forming a pitch-black orb, and instantaneously, the scattering dust suddenly paused.

After a slight pause, it began to converge towards the orb.

"Wang Xiaohu," Wen Lingyou shouted in a low voice.

In an instant, a slender hand appeared out of thin air in front of the orb, grasped it, and disappeared without a trace.

The guard who always stood by Wen Lingyou's side obtained the orb, and his expression changed slightly; his hand had already begun to turn black from the corruption.

Yu Ziqing stepped forward, grasped the orb, and let the power erode his body.

In an instant, his body was covered in Devil Patterns, falling into a deep state of devilization.

The Yin God, with eyes closed, consumed the forcibly generated Devil Thought as if it were munching on spicy snacks.

Yu Ziqing held the orb, standing there as the devil's scattered flesh turned into dust and broke apart.

Yu Ziqing's eyes remained clear, seemingly about to transform into a devil, stuck at this step.

The power of this object was too strong, and the continuously and forcibly catalyzed Devil Thought was not sufficient even for the Yin God to fill its teeth. The Yin God was too lazy to open its eyes.

"Don't worry. For me, devilization is just a routine method. This devil's strongest trait is useless against me."

Yu Ziqing explained to Jia Shisi, who looked curiously and somewhat worriedly at him.

The devil's corruption was so powerful, with such strong recovery, it was no wonder it hadn't been resolved.

Jia Shisi could chop it into dust with one stroke, but it was of no use.

Even if the core was sliced into dust, it could recover, and any other containment wouldn't withstand the corrosive demonization, merely delaying it.

Except for the sealing of Dadui, any sealing attempting to contain it long-term was ineffective.

Even now, Yu Ziqing only treated it as a temporary sealed item to control it, using his unique characteristics to forcibly halt the demonization process.

As long as Yu Ziqing did not lose consciousness, wasn't consumed by Devil Thought, and didn't release his grip, the devil would remain in this state.

At this moment, Emperor Dui stopped pretending, swallowed all the incense cultivators' power, and completed his final power ascent.

"Abandon other plans and form the array directly." Wen Lingyou's expression was solemn, as he felt the greatest pressure among those present.

Such an ultimate Great Devil could step into the Tenth Tier, unrestricted by heaven and earth, without a doubt.

Fortunately, it was now just pure power reaching the Tenth Tier.

Realm, mystery, divine skills, secret techniques, nothing was at the Tenth Tier.

There was still a chance.

With a command from Wen Lingyou, a dozen Ninth Tier cultivators followed the prearranged plan, transforming into tunneling light, standing in mid-air, spreading around in all directions, forming a three-dimensional big array.
