The sky was shrouded in thick clouds, lit by flashes of lightning and rumbling thunder.
The mountains shook in waves, and the earth trembled.
People within the Gourd Mountain region even believed this was the end of the world.
But for the Demon Saint·Heaven Returning Wood, tonight truly was its apocalypse!
At the very bottom battlefield of Gourd Mountain, Cheng Feng, holding up his massive flaming body, stood proud and tall. In his hands, the Divine Weapon·Thunderbolt Halberd stabbed downward inch by inch, leaving Heaven Returning Wood with no chance of survival.
From the halberd's tip, bursts of thunderstorm roared, accompanied by the "crack-crack" sound of wood being torn apart...
One must know, the Thunderbolt Halberd descended from the heavens, cutting from above to below.
In this mont, the body of Demon Saint·Heaven Returning Wood had already been split into a "V" shape!
With a thunderous "bang"!
Cheng Feng actually felt the weapon in his hands lighten?
The overbearing Thunderbolt Halberd had sheared through the giant tree, blasted apart its roots, and even pierced straight through Gourd Mountain itself!
Having lost its Demon Soul, Heaven Returning Wood was powerless to turn things around and perished in defeat.
Directly beneath Heaven Returning Wood, there was an Underground Gate!
It was precisely the chill pouring out from here that gave Heaven Returning Wood the ans to contend with the Jade Gourd.
"Hiss..."
"Roar!" As the halberd tip plunged into the Otherworld Gate, a series of Cold Beasts' howls echoed endlessly!
At the sa ti, above Heaven Returning Wood.
Shu Qinghe looked at the collapsed and toppled branches around her. Her face was icy, her voice cold: "Go! We must get Du Yu out first!"
Yang Qingqing's gaze dimd. She scooped up Du Yu with one arm, clamping him at her waist, and vaulted into the air.
The two Immortals could hardly be in good spirits, for the Demon Pet Contract in their minds had been severed...
Alive, they saw no Demon Soul. Dead, there was no corpse.
"Whoosh!" Shu Qinghe soared upward, waving her folding fan, sweeping forth a sudden gale.
The collapsing giant trees were all shredded into splinters.
Yang Qingqing stretched her right hand forward, and a massive presence quietly erged.
At the mouth of Gourd Mountain, atop the peak, the soldiers had retreated far back, not daring to rush forward.
After all, right above in the sky, dark clouds churned, thunder could fall at any mont.
Just as the crowd waited anxiously, a valiant Wind Trace Steed suddenly burst forth!
"Neighhhh~" The steed whinnied, splitting the night sky.
The bleak, far-reaching sound of the horse seed to challenge the black clouds above.
Several people were hanging from the steed's neck.
"Director Shu!"
"Master Qing!" Several soldiers, regardless of danger, activated various defensive barriers and strode forward.
Yang Qingqing imdiately recalled the Wind Trace Steed and, gripping Du Yu, flew aside horizontally.
Shu Qinghe reached out a hand, stopping the soldiers approaching to investigate.
Unlike the swiftly retreating Yang Qingqing, Shu Qinghe landed firmly at Gourd Mouth, standing on the pit's edge, gazing at the terrifying scene of the collapsing trees below.
In this apocalyptic tableau, she could find neither the Red Mud Fire Stove nor the ever-quarrelso Ghost Skull Five Brothers of days past.
Red Mud Fire Stove... was a Demon Emperor, after all.
And yet, under the terrifying Demon Skill of Demon Saint·Heaven Returning Wood, t its doom just like that.
Demon Skill·Heaven Returning Fury Wood did not take the lives of the beloved Demon Pets, at most shattering their battle robes.
The key was the other Demon Skill· Jade Tree and Silver Flowers.
That almost jade-shattering attack—let alone the Demon Pets near the giant tree, even the Mud Po Goddess Sculpture, piled with seven layers of defensive walls, nearly lost half its life...
"Breathe, Du Yu, breathe." Yang Qingqing, holding Du Yu with one arm, reminded softly.
Seeing his face flushed red from suffocation, Yang Qingqing pressed her other hand to his chest, rhythmically compressing as if to help him catch his breath.
"Hah... hah..." Du Yu finally managed to breathe.
Though his eyes were wide open, he couldn't actually see the person before him.
Because all of his attention was in his inner world, and his body was utterly beyond his control.
"Pa! Pa! Pa!" Heaven Returning Wood extended endless vines, wildly lashing against the Shadow Gu Tower, as if it wanted to shatter the tower entirely!
No matter what level this struggle lay upon, the scene Du Yu beheld was exactly this.
"Damn tree, I'll burn you!" Burning Sun Golden Crow, leading the blazing Fire Demon Breath, relentlessly incinerated the great tree.
She charged back and forth inside Shadow Gu Tower, stabbing through the Heaven Returning Wood Demon Soul again and again.
After several clashes, Heaven Returning Wood finally quieted sowhat.
The black-mist woman leaned on her Black Rain Umbrella, slamming its tip heavily on the ground.
"Dong!"
In an instant, both Burning Sun Golden Crow and Heaven Returning Wood froze in place!
Such a sight was truly shocking.
No matter how mighty the being, as long as you are in Demon Soul form, as long as you're on my turf...
If you're a dragon—coil! If you're a tiger—lie down!
I am the Ancient Spiritual Artifact, Shadow Gu Tower!
Just as Shadow Gu Tower once told Du Yu: I was born for this.
The black-mist woman extended her right hand forward, and under that formless force, Burning Sun Golden Crow was instantly flung out.
As for Heaven Returning Wood...
Out of the tiger's den, only to enter the wolf's lair.
It had previously been imprisoned by the Jade Gourd, its body shackled and Demon Breath refined.
Now, it was battered as a Demon Soul by Burning Sun Golden Crow, then securely trapped again by Shadow Gu Tower!
"Mmm~" Blown out of the tower, Burning Sun Golden Crow's figure quietly warped, transforming back into her petite, illusory form.
Little Fen Yang hurriedly stepped forward, two tiny hands clutching the doorway, curiously peeking inside the tower.
Heaven Returning Wood was finally subdued, immobilized.
Its pair of crimson eyes radiated endless murderous intent.
The violent aura swirling inside and outside the tower sent chills down the spine!
Little Fen Yang pouted and muttered softly, "Hmph, who are you trying to scare~"
She watched for a mont before asking, "Sister Ta, do you still need my help?"
