Kill!
Over a hundred human cultivators charged into the demon beast horde. The demon beasts, like a surging tide, swarmed in from all directions, blotting out the sky and obscuring the sun, as if they could instantly drown the hundred-plus human cultivators.
Fortunately, Zhang Fan's Sword Dao Domain enveloped everyone. Although Zhang Fan didn't deliberately control the domain's power, its inherent might, coupled with the ubiquitous sword intent, easily slaughtered demon beasts below the Fourth Tribulation Realm.
In mere moments, within the Sword Dao Domain, tens of thousands of demon beasts perished. Some were beheaded by sword intent that materialized out of thin air, their blood gushing like a river. Others were mangled by the dense laws of the Sword Dao, their flesh and blood scattered.
A multitude of avian corpses rained down from the sky. The earth turned blood-red, and within a thousand-mile radius, a blood-rain descended. The pungent stench of blood rapidly permeated the air.
Despite this, countless demon beasts of the Golden Core stage and low-tier Nascent Soul stage were driven by their beast kings, fearlessly charging into the Sword Dao Domain. In mere breaths, a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood formed around them.
The human cultivators within the domain, while not suppressed by its power, truly felt its terror.
Xiao Kun, the hall master of the Six Kings' Mansion's Fengyun Hall, had reached the peak of the Sixth Tribulation Realm before entering the Great Luo Realm. After entering, he utilized the acquired resources to successfully overcome the seventh Nascent Soul tribulation.
His cultivation had since reached the peak of the Seventh Tribulation Realm, just one step away from the Eighth Tribulation Realm. However, he had only condensed an ordinary silver Nascent Soul, making it exceedingly difficult to fight across realms.
Yet, within this Sword Dao Domain, the demon beasts' power was greatly suppressed. With the domain's assistance, he was able to fight evenly with a peak Eighth Tribulation Realm demon beast.
His heart thrummed with excitement. With the domain's aid, human cultivators were like fish in water. The longer the battle raged, the more disadvantageous it became for the demon beasts. As long as they continued to skirmish, the peak Eighth Tribulation Realm demon beast was destined to be defeated.
It wasn't just Xiao Kun; many human cultivators realized this, their fighting spirit soaring. Normally, hunting demon beasts of the same level was incredibly difficult for them. Today, within this Sword Dao Domain, they could even hunt demon beasts far more powerful than themselves.
Hunting powerful demon beasts not only yielded valuable cultivation resources but also greatly aided their cultivation by allowing them to comprehend higher-level powers.
For cultivators below the Ninth Tribulation Realm, this was an excellent opportunity to hone their skills. But for the top-tier Nascent Soul cultivators, it was a feast of slaughter. Gong Yiyi of the True Fire Grotto-Heaven, needing to attend to the disciples of her sect with lower cultivation, could not fully unleash her might.
However, Zhang Fan, Shen Feichen, and the siblings Canglan Mingyue and Canglan Qiuyue were in a frenzy. Each of them possessed at least the strength of a peak Nascent Soul cultivator. Within this Sword Dao Domain, demon beasts below the Ninth Tribulation Realm were no match for them.
Zhang Fan, wielding his iron sword, transformed into lightning, reaping a harvest among the beast horde with unparalleled speed. His iron sword was stained with the blood of countless demon beasts, the dense blood fiend aura almost solidifying.
As Zhang Fan's natal blood-refined divine weapon, it naturally absorbed blood fiend energy for growth. Although it had already devoured a considerable amount of cultivators' essence and blood before, compared to this moment, it was but a drop in the ocean.
Canglan Mingyue and Canglan Qiuyue, with a saber and sword respectively, weaved through the beast horde. Wherever they passed, countless demon beast heads flew, their scorching blood sprayed, and their Nascent Souls were dug out before they could even escape their bodies.
Despite the profound heritage of their Canghai Palace, opportunities to acquire such a large number of high-tier demon beast Nascent Souls were rare, and they naturally cherished them immensely.
With Zhang Fan watching his back, Shen Feichen no longer had to worry about the safety of the Six Kings' Mansion cultivators. He unleashed his full potential, charging through the beast horde with his formidable physique, and with his unparalleled fist techniques, he pulverized one demon beast after another. Even weaker Ninth Tribulation Realm demon beasts could not withstand his onslaught.
Although Liu Mu's cultivation was only at the peak of the Eighth Tribulation Realm, with his top-tier golden Nascent Soul and exquisite swordsmanship, his displayed power far surpassed that of an ordinary Ninth Tribulation Realm cultivator.
Clad in pristine white, he wielded a three-foot Qingfeng sword, darting through the demon beast ranks, his every strike fatal.
His sword remained unstained by blood, his body pristine, performing a deadly art of slaughter that was both beautiful and chilling.
The Blood Demon Flood Dragon transformed into its true form, wreaking havoc. It seemed to possess an internal space, devouring demon beast after demon beast, its aura rapidly growing.
Lin Haotian, Luo Xiaoxiao, Wuchen Jianxian, and Tianhua Tianjun formed a team, refining a Celestial-grade Four Symbols Grand Array. The already formidable quartet, under Luo Xiaoxiao's leadership, became invincible as long as they deliberately avoided Ninth Tribulation Realm demon beasts.
On the current battlefield, there was no right or wrong, only strength or weakness. Any hesitation or pity would only bring disaster.
Relying on Zhang Fan's Sword Dao Domain, the human cultivators temporarily held an absolute advantage. Every second, a large number of demon beasts fell. However, their sheer numbers were overwhelming. They could encircle the vast dark plains, numbering at least in the millions. While over ninety-nine percent were merely Golden Core and low-tier Nascent Soul demon beasts, the number of demon beasts above the Fourth Tribulation Realm still reached a terrifying figure.
As one demon beast fell, several more rushed forward. The dense blood fiend aura and the frenzied slaughter had driven many demon beasts mad, fully displaying their beastly nature. Gradually, some human cultivators could no longer hold on, their bodies torn asunder by the demon beasts, their Nascent Souls crushed, their agonizing screams echoing.
At the periphery of the Sword Dao Domain, several beast kings observed. Simultaneously, beast kings guarding other directions of the Dark Plains were rapidly converging, surrounding the human cultivators from all sides.
To be a beast king meant possessing intelligence and strength far exceeding ordinary demon beasts. Witnessing the countless demon beasts being slain, their eyes were devoid of emotion, showing no trace of fluctuation. They watched the frenzied human cultivators with the indifference of those who viewed them as already dead.
