Chapter 651: Chapter 385: The Human Clan Triumphs! The Great Saint of Beishan!_2

"To achieve a breakthrough amidst battle, unprecedented... He truly is someone who thrives through war..."

Recalling his own experience, the cautious steps it had taken when he broke through the Refining God Realm, he felt a surge of emotions.

It was exactly because cultivation was so arduous, breakthroughs so challenging.

Thus, whether it was Refining Essence into Qi or advancing from Qi Refining to God Transformation, it usually required an extremely stable and peaceful place for one to focus their heart and mind.

To achieve Qi Refining and God Transformation during combat was an unparalleled feat.

In the past, on Taixuan Divine Mountain, there were two experts at the peak of the Qi Refining Realm. During their battle against evil forces, trapped in desperate straits, they attempted to forcefully achieve Qi Refining and God Transformation.

One was instantly annihilated, their Primordial Spirit scattered, and though their physical body remained intact, it was soon devoured by the evil forces.

The other, during Deceit Night, had their Three Souls and Seven Spirits tainted by a strange miasma, becoming profoundly sinister and evil, their physical body crumbling shortly after.

Mr. Lu felt a deep sense of amazement in his heart: "For him to achieve Qi Refining and God Transformation is not surprising, but to break through during battle... surely the Human Clan’s leadership will be deeply shaken by this."

——

The sky brightened.

To the rear of the sixth line of defense of the Heavenly Mechanism Flag, in the direction of Yuan Shan City ahead.

Here, the ground was strewn with corpses, casualties were immense.

"It’s over..."

The First True Master of the Sacred Land’s Second Lineage closed his eyes slightly, and said softly: "It ended a little better than this old man had anticipated."

Although over half of their forces were lost, they ultimately succeeded in exterminating three Evil Spirits of extraordinary tiers.

Through a sleepless night of relentless battle, the dreadful Deceit Night had finally abated, and dawn arose.

"Had the Taixuan Garrison reinforcements not arrived, at least half of the remaining forces would have perished!"

The Great City Guard of Yuan Shan City threw down his blade and collapsed in exhaustion.

Not far off, a white-haired youth from the Observatory of Qifeng Prefecture City gasped heavily, saying: "Taixuan Divine Mountain was in critical danger this night. You were tasked with protecting the Saint Master—why did you abandon your post?"

"On orders from the Saint Master, we assisted all of you in annihilating the three Evil Venerables."

The Refining God Realm Martial Artist leading the group exhaled and frowned as he said, "Are you accusing us of wrongdoing? Our team of thirty-six assembled into formation to contain one extraordinary-tier Evil Spirit, preventing your entire army from being annihilated..."

He glanced behind him: of the thirty-six, twelve had fallen in battle, four were critically injured, and the remaining survivors bore minor wounds, their energy nearly depleted.

"The Saint Master must not come to harm!"

The white-haired youth’s voice was heavy as he declared, "We came here prepared to die. Even if we all fell in battle, it was within our expectations! And you..."

His expression was icily grim as he continued, "Even if you achieved merits here, should anything happen to the Saint Master, we would all be held accountable as sinners!"

At those words, a bright light suddenly emanated from afar, transforming into a resounding voice that rang across the four directions!

"The Saint Master achieved a breakthrough during battle, exterminated four Great Demon Kings, cleared a hundred miles of demonic evil, and slew countless foes!"

——

The defenders of the Heavenly Mechanism Flag’s line moved forward.

From afar, a mountain came into view.

At the mountain’s base lay countless rodent carcasses.

Nearby, rising heat shimmered above rocks, where a colossal flood dragon’s head, covered in crimson scale armor, rested. Its body had been severed into three pieces, scattered in various directions.

Not far off, a black tiger, as massive as a mountain, lay prostrate on the ground.

Yet its severed head was ten miles away.

Further ahead, two icy wings glittered with a chilling light, one to the left and one to the right.

Upon closer inspection, they were not merely wings but part of a mutilated torso.

The four Great Demon Kings had fallen here!

At the mountain’s summit, a solitary "insignificant" figure slowly stood upright, sheathing their blade.

Everyone held their breath.

This figure stood tall and straight.

At the mountain peak, the morning wind blew gently.

Their garments fluttered as they gazed toward the north.

"From this night onward, Taixuan Divine Mountain’s Heavenly Mechanism Flag boundary shall advance a hundred miles!"

They only heard the Saint Master’s voice resound, brimming with determination: "From this moment, this is the Heavenly Mechanism Flag’s foremost front line!"

As those words echoed, all present fell into silence.

What was the Saint Master implying?

This mountain summit was now the foremost front line of the Heavenly Mechanism Flag?

Meaning that, from this mountain under the Saint Master’s feet southward, covering a hundred miles, was no longer part of the Demon Domain?

The Human Clan... had invaded the Demon Domain?

While all the soldiers stood in awe, they saw the figure on the mountain turn, facing the gathered troops, and declare: "The ground beneath your feet, starting today, belongs to the Human Clan!"

"Glory to the Saint Master!!!"

Lv Tang suddenly bellowed.

Soon, a deafening chorus rose in response.

"Glory to the Saint Master!!!"

The voices of thousands surged like tidal waves, roaring across the skies!

Lin Yan closed his eyes slightly, sensing that the power of incense was now rising exponentially!

"..."

The Little White Ape seemed to grasp something, thinking to itself: "So this was why Mr. Lu insisted that I adopt the Saint Master’s image—to bring greater prestige to his esteemed self?"

——

Atop Taixuan Divine Mountain.

The Great Banner Master gazed far into the distance, remarking with emotion: "With the Saint Master’s current renown, though his Primordial Spirit has only just formed, his reputation ensures an endless flow of incense... enough for his Primordial Spirit to unleash the peak power of the Refining God Realm!"

"In addition, with the Netherworld’s Inner Realm Divine Domain, he could almost be considered a peak God Lord already!"

"But at the end of the day, his Primordial Spirit has only just been formed... One day, when he refines it to its zenith, aided by the power of incense, the depth of his foundation will be unimaginable!"

The Great Banner Master’s eyes shone with fervent excitement.

With the Saint Master’s immense fortune and the blessings of the Ancient Immortal’s Injunction, even before forming his Primordial Spirit, he could rival Creation Gods as a Creation Mortal Lord.

Now, as a true God Lord, once he reaches his pinnacle, bolstered by the power of incense, perhaps... in terms of raw strength, he could rival a Human Martial Saint!

"Relay my orders to the troops: have all members of the Array Formation Hall from the Sacred Land assemble at the Heavenly Mechanism Flag front line."

The Great Banner Master turned slightly and spoke.

Beside him, an Earth Evil Flag Master whispered, "The members of the Array Formation Hall are currently stationed across various defensive positions, repairing the array runes damaged in last night’s battle..."
