Shi Feiyang knew that Elder Kuzhu possessed vast and boundless divine power. Although this was merely a reincarnated body, once it broke free, Shi Feiyang would not be his match.

Especially since the other party had become demonized and was incapable of rational communication. Sitting in the grand hall, he could feel the thick murderous aura emanating from him, clearly indicating that he had lost his sanity. If he were to meet anyone he might start killing immediately and create destruction everywhere. Not only was the Bright Realm at risk of sinking, but the entire Outer Heaven Divine Mountain could potentially be destroyed by him!

He must not allow Elder Kuzhu to escape from this array.

Shi Feiyang quickly assessed the situation, swung the Nine Heavens Yuan Yang Ruler, and released a stream of Hongmeng Purple Qi into the colorful smoke.

At this moment, Elder Kuzhu was exerting his full power within the array, his hands each releasing a Sky-reaching Light Pillar, furiously attacking the top cover of the array.

The colorful smoke tumbled and violently shook, followed by incessant thunderclaps. The colorful smoke above began to disperse to the sides, revealing a gigantic halo with a diameter of several hundred zhang in the center. Five-colored brilliance surged and spilled out, casting down a radiant splendor of ten thousand zhang, creating a dazzling and beautiful spectacle against the surrounding tens of zhang thick swirling colorful clouds.

Within this five-colored radiance, a giant head emerged, with a wolf's head and an elephant's trunk, dragon's eyes and eagle's beak, and long fangs extending beyond its lips, looking extremely fierce.

The head alone was ten zhang in size, shaking as it emerged from the clouds, followed by double wings tens of zhang wide, its body covered in shiny black scales, and a long tail dragging behind as it squeezed out of the clouds and opened its huge mouth to shoot out flames tens of zhang long.

Elder Kuzhu roared and struck with Taiyin Green Spirit Divine Light, the green light meeting the flames. From the outside, ten thousand silvery starry streaks fell like rain. The two forces collided, the green light pushing against the flames upwards, reaching the monster's face. The monster then shot two red beams from its eyes, also hitting the green light, stopping its advance.

Continuously, various kinds of monsters emerged from the clouds, some with horns, some with wings, some covered in feathers, and some in scales. The smallest body amongst them was over twenty zhang in length, each thrashing about, shaking their heads and tails as they squeezed out of the clouds, automatically forming a circle and slowly flying, as if swimming in the ocean.

These monsters were all divine souls and essences of ancient fierce beasts. Some had lived for tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of years. The leading wolf-headed, elephant-trunked beast had lived for over a million years. Shi Feiyang had seen its name in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, called the Elephant Dragon, the most formidable, all slain and imprisoned in the Yu Ding by Yu the Great.

After obtaining the Yu Ding, Shi Feiyang had used the Mysterious Sect Immortal Technique to re-sacrificially refine it. Originally, the majority of these beasts' powers had been sealed, even their consciousness and thoughts completely restrained, each like a clay puppet or wooden dummy, borrowing the metallic essence of Yu Ding to take shape, only able to execute very simple commands from their master.

Their methods of attack, in addition to the Elder Brother Elephant Dragon forged into the Ding Cover who could breathe fire, merely consisted of lunging forward to bite and claw, their movements still very clumsy.

If they encountered someone using a Flying Sword Magical Treasure to attack them, it was akin to directly affecting the Yu Ding. For instance, if Lin Han used the Nanming Leaving Fire Sword to slash at them, it could potentially shatter the Yu Ding into pieces.

Shi Feiyang had used the Five Elements Essence Qi to re-refine them, removing some of their seals. If originally Yu the Great had sealed 99 percent of their powers, Shi Feiyang had released the seals to 80 percent, allowing them to possess some basic thinking abilities similar to ordinary small dogs, and their divine power techniques from their previous lives could also be somewhat used.

Overall, more than three thousand ancient fierce beasts, all released by Shi Feiyang, inside this array, with the Elephant Dragon at the center, spewing fierce fire from its mouth and shooting red light from its eyes, clashing with Elder Kuzhu, while the rest of the beasts formed a huge circle around it, swimming like a school of deep-sea fish.

Their speeds were not fast. As they flew and swam, they lowered their heads and roared at Elder Kuzhu, each opening their massive mouths, either spitting flames, or hail, or poison mist, or thunder...

In an instant, thousands of fierce flames, billions of hailstones, vast poison clouds, countless bolts of lightning, each accompanied by hurricanes, cold lights, yellow dust, golden stars, azure clouds, colorful smoke and more, all poured down, bombarding Elder Kuzhu in a frenzied barrage!

Elder Kuzhu waved his hands, releasing large swathes of green light to protect himself, barraged by various attacks like a waterfall, causing another surge of tumultuous vital energy.

Normally he would not fear this, but now he was in a berserk state, his inner spiritual vital energy already uncontrollable. At this moment, being shaken further made it even more difficult to restrain, and once again, it rebelled and surged backward, causing his internal organs to feel as though they were bursting. Blood surged from his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose once again.

In anger, he roared, "Hairy armors! I will slaughter you all!"

He clasped his hands in front of his chest, turning the Green Spirit Divine Light into a light pillar that enveloped him. His body shot upward from the ground, directly towards the sky, while the surrounding fierce beasts poured their attacks onto him. A layer of silver brilliance formed around his green light, spraying out silvery stars with each attack it met, clashing with the cloud, thunder, water, and fire, cracking and exploding furiously.

Enveloped in the green light, he shot up like an arrow released from its bow, directly withstanding the attacks from all the fierce beasts and heading straight into the body of the Elephant Dragon. The Elephant Dragon, spitting fierce fire and shooting red light from its eyes, was unable to stop him.

Inside the body of the Elephant Dragon, Elder Kuzhu roared, expanding the green light and tearing the body of the Elephant Dragon apart, scattering it into a sky full of colorful light. With a rub of his hands, he scattered more than a thousand Taiyin Green Spirit Divine Thunders. The greenish pearls scattered outward, falling amidst the crowd of fierce beasts, followed by severe explosions.

A series of dense thunderclaps continuously exploded, the fierce beasts blasted into groups of colorful light, dissipating into the air.

Of the three thousand fierce beasts, his scattering of divine thunder had destroyed more than half in one wave, and then he struck again with another wave of thunder.

When an Immortal executes thunder, if the power reaches a certain level, it requires the prior preparation of Thunder Pearls, which can be triggered for use. Otherwise, using the Thunder Skill on-site through one's own essence energy typically yields only a single thunderclap at a time.

Elder Kuzhu's thunderclaps, still numbering over a thousand and produced on-site by hand, were, in fact, significantly draining his primordial qi and even life force.

He was already demonized and didn't care about anything else. He only wanted to use the simplest and most brutal means to kill all the enemies in front of him in the shortest time possible and shatter the array that had made him lose face.

As soon as he scattered the second wave of Thunder Pearls, suddenly golden light flickered above. He hastily looked up and saw that at the seam between the central multicolored light clouds and the surrounding colorful smoke, an additional circle of golden talisman light appeared. As it spun, it detached and swiftly shrank, crashing down.

After becoming demonized, his sensory responses were no longer as clear as before; sometimes his Divine Soul would even tremble, feeling as if he were in a dream. At this moment, he had just looked up when the golden light ring struck down. Unable to avoid it in time, it was imprinted on his forehead, penetrating into the Mud Ball Palace, and a circle formed by three hundred and sixty talisman marks trapped his Primordial Spirit.

His vision darkened, his brain spun, and he plummeted from the sky, crashing heavily to the ground.

On the ground, streams of multicolored smoke rose, twisting around his body like spirit snakes and pythons. Twelve strands drilled into his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose. Meanwhile, a large number of different-colored flowers fell from the colorful smoke clouds in the sky, spiraling as they descended.

Elder Kuzhu's Primordial Spirit and flesh both underwent what could only be described as horrific torture. He could neither see with his eyes nor hear with his ears. Staggering on the spot, suddenly, a blue light and silver radiance burst out from all his pores, breaking the twelve strands of colorful smoke, which then dissipated. The Heavenly Talisman Gold Ring inside his Mud Ball Palace also shattered.

"How can you contend with me! How can you contend with me!" Elder Kuzhu roared loudly, soaring upwards again.

He intended to shatter that multicolored light cloud and escape through it to go on a killing spree.

Suddenly, a zither note rang out in the air, a "thud" that seemed to directly vibrate his heartstrings, making his Primordial Spirit jump.

This time Shi Feiyang was playing "Ambush from Ten Sides." The sound of the zither was crisp, echoing continuously, each note tugging at the listener's resolve, making one sense danger from behind!

"Thud!" Elder Kuzhu felt an attack coming from behind, hastily turned around, and expelled a stream of blue light, naturally hitting nothing.

"Thud!" Elder Kuzhu thought someone was on his left, threw out a blue light, and missed again.

"Thud!" Again, Elder Kuzhu sensed someone on his right and immediately launched an attack.

...

As the zither music intensified, Elder Kuzhu felt surrounded by enemies on all sides. Thinking the enemies were hidden among the billowing colorful clouds around him, he continuously fired beams of Taiyin Green Spirit Divine Light. Later, feeling overrun by enemies and that the Divine Light was too slow, he began to manually create Thunder Pearls, flinging them out by the thousands, striking into the colorful clouds around him, causing explosions like the sky shattering and the earth splitting.

Hearing the music of the Cave Spirit Zither, Ye Bin outside recognized it instantly and hurried into the great hall, only to be stopped by Deng Bagu, "Where do you think you're going?"

Ye Bin, in a rush, calculated with his fingers, "Is that Demon Dragon playing the Cave Spirit Zither?"

Deng Bagu coldly said, "Mind your tone when you speak!"

Ye Bin had no time to quarrel and flew off to meet with Qian Kang, "The Demon Dragon has awakened. Elder... that Senior entered the formation and has not yet come out. I don't know..."

Qian Kang said, "Don't worry. With that Senior's technique and divine power, no array, no matter how mystical, can truly trap him, even if it's not the Emei Sect's Liangyi Six Harmonies Microdust Formation."

Ye Bin, unable to hide his concern, said, "Should we join forces with the Senior to break this formation?"

"It's best not to!" Qian Kang quickly said, "That Senior is known as one of the Cosmic Six Strange, extremely weird and even unsociable. Although I haven't met him, I've heard stories several times. If we rashly help him, not only will he not appreciate it, he might even think we look down on him and get very upset..."

Ye Bin nodded, "I've also heard that the old man's temper is unpredictable. Now that the Demon Dragon has awakened and the Senior has not come out yet... Ah, I don't know what his plans are, but this zither sound seems ominous. I just silently calculated a divination in my heart, and it was extremely ominous."

"Oh? That really is something. Let me calculate as well." Qian Kang also made a calculation, and the result was also extremely ominous, his face suddenly turning pale.

Ye Bin saw his complexion turn very ugly, "Right? You also calculated a bad outcome."

Qian Kang, worried, glanced at Tianxin Palace. Deng Bagu, Xiong Man, Yuan Hua, Lin Han, and Shi Sheng were all standing on the roof of the great hall. Only the sound of the zither could be heard inside, and the exact situation was unknown.

He thought for a moment, then tentatively suggested, "Should we perhaps leave first?"

"Hmm?" Ye Bin was quite surprised he would suggest this.

Qian Kang said, "With Elder Kuzhu's divine power and techniques, he doesn't need help from others. If the time comes when he needs help, our modest abilities won't be of any use. If we rush down to fight now, for the past three days we and his disciples have only managed a draw, unable to even enter the palace gates. Now that he has awakened, we stand even less of a chance. It might be better to leave now. If Elder Kuzhu wants to leave, he can naturally do so at will. Staying here, we're just a burden to him."
