718 Massacre (1/2)

Everyone realized that only by killing the Fire Domain's Beast Kings could they continue to advance. The increase from killing one of the Fire Domain's Beast Kings was most likely higher than killing a thousand Pinnacle Beast Kings.

Mo Wen and Nangong Mingzhu's auras right now already made it hard for some of the human ancient martial art practitioners to breathe. Even the Fire Bull Beast King was shocked right now, let alone the human ancient martial art practitioners. The cultivation of these two human ancient martial art practitioners was actually almost catching up to its own.

Just the thought that the two of them had killed the more powerful Giant Crocodile Beast King sent a shiver down the Fire Bull Beast King's spine. It was weaker than the Giant Crocodile Beast King. Against two even more powerful human ancient martial art practitioners, as well as the group of human ancient martial art practitioners surrounding it, how could it possibly escape alive?

The Fire Bull Beast King indeed had no way to escape alive. With Nangong Mingzhu's replica Crimson Moon Demonic Tower and Mo Wen's Heavenly Serpent Divine Spear, it had no chance of escape. It was turned to dust by the two absolute powers. The whole process only took a few breaths.

Starlight shone. After killing the Fire Bull Beast King, an uncountable amount of starlight surged out. Large amounts of the light surrounded both Mo Wen and Nangong Mingzhu. There were more than ten other very small clumps of starlight that surged towards the other human ancient martial art practitioners that surrounded the Fire Bull Beast King. Both Mo Wen and Nangong Mingzhu's light masses were the largest, followed by Chu Yuan and Tan Qiyue's, and then the rest of the human ancient martial art practitioners that had reached the Martial Arts Grandmaster third realm.

Having gone through another baptism of starlight, Mo Wen's cultivation increased by another large amount. Right now, even he could not tell what level his cultivation was at. It had certainly far surpassed the Martial Arts Grandmaster third realm and was already even comparable to a mythical beast such as the Fire Bull Beast King.

However, even though he had such strong and deep cultivation, Mo Wen was still at the Martial Arts Grandmaster Realm. It was impossible for him to reach the Primordial Soul Realm. The difference between the two realms was absolute. One could not surpass the differences through this method.

Originally, under normal circumstances, once human ancient martial art practitioners reached the Martial Arts Grandmaster third realm, their cultivation would not improve anymore. It became almost completely stagnant and further improvement would be incredibly difficult. But here, the Tower Spirit had completely changed this rule, causing the human ancient martial art practitioner's Inner Qi cultivation to still be able to advance after reaching the Martial Arts Grandmaster third realm. There seemed to be no upper limit.

A bolt of lightning flashed and Mo Wen's aura was unprecedentedly powerful. Standing in mid-air, he was like a mythical beast in human form. If he appeared in the outside world now, he would certainly shake the entire ancient martial arts world.

It was the same for Nangong Mingzhu. Her aura had reached a mysterious and powerful stage. If she encountered the Giant Crocodile Beast King again, she would most likely be able to kill it easily.

Mo Wen and Nangong Mingzhu benefited the most but Chu Yuan and Tan Qiyue also benefited a lot. Their cultivation improved greatly, showing obvious increments from that of before. Even those humans who were at the Martial Arts Grandmaster third realm had broken through the limit of Martial Arts Grandmaster third realm one by one, reaching a greater height.

Mo Wen and Nangong Mingzhu looked at each other. As expected, the starlight produced by the Fire Domain's Beast Kings was different from normal starlight. Although these human ancient martial art practitioners did not absorb much, their increments were very large, many times more effective than that of ordinary Beast Kings.

After the Fire Bull Beast King died, dazzling lights suddenly filled the sky. A few masses of light appeared in mid-air. They were the rewards for killing the Fire Bull Beast King. There were six masses of light, just one fewer than the rewards for killing the Giant Crocodile Beast King.

Mo Wen waved his hand and a mass of light flew into it. It was a small red flag with a beautiful firebird carved on it. It was the mythical beast, the Vermillion Bird. Needless to say, this was the Vermillion Bird Flag, the final flag for the Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem.

Right now, the four flags of the Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem had finally been gathered. Mo Wen had not expected that the flags for the Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem would appear in such a manner. The complete set of flags had only appeared after they killed all four of the Fire Domain's Beast Kings. Clearly, this Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem would only be useful when they proceeded to the third stage.

Once the Vermillion Bird Flag appeared in his hand, it immediately became a beam of red light that flew into the air. The next moment, the Azure Dragon Flag, White Tiger Flag, and Black Tortoise Flag on him all flew out as well. They flew up into the sky, coming together with the Vermillion Bird Flag as they released beams of spiritual treasure light.

Information suddenly appeared in Mo Wen's mind. It was knowledge about how to use the Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem and other related information.

”So that's how it is.” A look of glee flashed in his eyes. He took a deep breath. He finally understood the use of the Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem and why they had appeared in such a manner.

The Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem was a challenge supporting item given to the human ancient martial art practitioners by the Tower Spirit. The stratagem would only be used in the third stage: it could not be used in the first two stages at all. It was also the reason why the complete set of the Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem only appeared after they killed the four Fire Domain's Beast Kings in the first two stages. If the human ancient martial art practitioners could not even pass the first two stages, naturally the Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem would not be needed.

Mo Wen frowned. The Tower Spirit had given this Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem in the third stage as a supporting treasure. From this, they could tell that the third stage would be far more difficult than they had imagined. The situation most likely would not give them any cause for optimism.

After he took the Vermillion Bird Flag, Mo Wen did not look at any of the other items. Without any lingering affection, he turned and left, leaving the rest of the rewards to the others. He already had enough good items on him. He did not need to challenge for more. The more treasures the other human ancient martial art practitioners could get, the more they could contribute later on.

Nangong Mingzhu glanced at the remaining treasures. She pointed her finger and a red light appeared in her hand. She also only took one item. However, she had taken a superb grade Healing Light. It could be said to be the most valuable of all the items there.

However, nobody dared to say anything. After all, the Fire Bull Beast King's death had depended mostly on Nangong Mingzhu's and Mo Wen's contributions. Furthermore, with her current cultivation, nobody dared to fight her.

”We will not take any. May the two of you please take the rest. We only hope that in the third stage, everyone can work together and give it their all.”
