Boom!
Chen Nan's words struck Wu Suo like a bolt from the blue.
It hadn't expected Niuniu Cave and Tutu Mountain to attack the Divine Stone Mine at this time.
Even less did it expect Chen Nan to be the mastermind behind it all.
Chen Nan's actions had cut off its retreat.
Leaving it with nowhere to go.
It also made it realize Chen Nan's terrifying capabilities.
It thought it was already very clever.
But compared to Chen Nan, there was still a considerable gap.
If it was said to think one step ahead.
Then Chen Nan was thinking five steps ahead.
Chen Nan had been controlling the overall situation all along.
"Since there's no escape, let's fight to the death!" Wu Suo roared.
Rolling demonic energy surged from its body, transforming into a demonic being about a thousand meters tall.
Its eyes were scarlet, like two blood moons hanging in the night sky.
There was no emotion in its gaze.
Its fists were as large as mountains, exuding immense power.
The other demonic beings also reverted to their true forms upon seeing this.
Hundreds of thousands of demonic beings, each a thousand meters tall, appeared in the world. Their scarlet eyes locked onto Chen Nan and his companions atop the mountain peak.
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became heavy.
A strong sense of oppression arose in everyone's hearts.
Even Chen Nan felt it.
Although he could use the magical ability - Bean Soldiers.
The true forms of the demonic beings were too massive.
Even with the Bean Soldiers, it would be difficult to contend with so many of them.
Thinking of this.
Chen Nan couldn't help but shudder.
Wait.
Bean Soldiers could not only transform into me.
I could transform into some large creatures to fight the enemies!
Without further thought, Chen Nan grabbed a handful of beans and scattered them into the sky.
In an instant.
Dozens of mad apes, each a thousand meters tall, appeared in the world. Each was powerful and muscular, resembling King Kong from science fiction movies.
The battlefield situation immediately became more balanced.
Deafening thunderclaps echoed incessantly.
Multicolored lights flashed across the night sky.
The shockwaves spread for hundreds of miles.
"Frost Blade Art!"
Xuan Qingniao uttered a cold voice, and ice frost erupted from within her, enveloping her slender body and transforming into a crystal-clear suit of armor.
It further accentuated her graceful figure.
Giving her an aura of heroic spirit.
The next moment, she charged into the horde of demonic beings, wielding a long saber.
Sitting idly by was not her style.
She preferred to take the initiative.
The members of the Phoenix tribe also charged out immediately.
Despite their tribe numbering only a little over sixty, each individual's strength had reached the Divine Venerable Realm.
And they all possessed the ability to defeat opponents of higher cultivation.
Even facing countless demonic beings.
They showed no fear.
Moreover, their movement techniques were already very agile.
Especially when facing thousand-meter-tall demonic beings with restricted movement.
Even surrounded by them, they moved as if in an empty space.
Chen Nan stood quietly on the mountain peak.
He occasionally scattered handfuls of beans.
Causing the thousand-meter-tall mad apes to engage in combat with the demonic beings.
Although many demonic beings rushed towards him during this time, attempting to kill him.
They were slain by Chen Nan's blade intent before they could get close.
As the battle continued.
Many demonic beings also fell to the ground.
Blood pooled on the ground, forming a large lake.
The thick, viscous blood emitted a pungent, fishy odor.
As the energy of the battle spread.
The blood stirred as if a blood dragon was writhing and roaring within.
The Nine-Headed Flame Lion, looking exhausted, arrived at the mountaintop, panting heavily. "Boss, I can't go on!"
Chen Nan looked at it and said indifferently, "Besides saying you can't go on, can you say anything else?"
The Nine-Headed Flame Lion cautiously asked, "I can't take it anymore?"
Seeing Chen Nan's speechless gaze, the Nine-Headed Flame Lion continued, "The blood of these demonic beings affects my mind. If this continues, I'll lose my sanity!"
Chen Nan looked at the others.
As expected.
Their speed had all slowed, and their expressions were grim.
This was not due to excessive consumption of divine power.
But rather, the smell emanating from the demonic beings' blood was unbearable for them.
Wu Suo laughed heartily, "Excellent. The blood of our demonic beings can drive people insane. Soon, you will all go mad."
"This move has never failed."
"It's how I ascended to Lingxiao in the past."
"Your human race often says that one trick can conquer the world, and that's what it means!"
"Is that so?" Chen Nan revealed a hint of a smile.
The next second.
The blood-red staff appeared in his hand.
The moment the blood-red staff appeared in Chen Nan's hand, all the surviving demonic beings on the battlefield turned their gaze towards Chen Nan in unison.
Disbelief flickered in their eyes.
Wu Suo let out a cry of disbelief, "You actually have our sacred artifact? Impossible! How can this treasure be in your hands?"
"I understand now."
"You used it before to resist the influence of the demonic artifact."
"You know too late!" The blood-red staff in Chen Nan's hand turned into a stream of blood-red light and soared into the air. Under Chen Nan's control, it unleashed a blinding radiance.
The next second.
The bloody aura from the blood lake on the ground seemed to be summoned, flying into the blood-red staff in a visible manner.
Devour!
This was a major ability of the demonic sacred artifact.
As it devoured, the skulls on the staff began to writhe, as if wanting to break free, giving a bizarre and eerie impression.
"Run!"
Wu Suo snapped out of its shock.
It didn't know why Chen Nan possessed this terrifying sacred artifact.
But it knew the artifact's formidable power.
Once this sacred artifact began to devour.
It didn't just devour the blood of the dead.
Even living beings would be affected.
"Since I've taken out this sacred artifact, do you think you can still leave alive?" Chen Nan's eyes were scarlet, his primary soul controlling his body.
Hum!
A dazzling light erupted from the red staff, enveloping this small world, encompassing everyone within it.
Before this.
Chen Nan had instructed Xuan Qingniao and the others to enter the Immortal Mansion.
"No!"
A humanoid demonic being close to the blood-red staff let out a heart-wrenching scream.
It wanted to escape.
But the blood within its body was like a surging flood, completely beyond its control.
In an instant.
Its physical body turned into a dried husk.
The other demonic beings were greatly alarmed by this.
They had all heard of this sacred artifact.
But this was the first time they had witnessed it.
It was indeed as terrifying as the legends said.
They fled frantically.
However.
The radiance emanating from the sacred artifact relentlessly devoured their blood.
Husk after husk drifted down from the sky.
Wu Suo was filled with despair, pleading, "Chen Nan, I am willing to become your servant! Please spare my life! As long as you spare me, I will give you many treasures!"
Chen Nan roared, "Can the hatred between us be erased by the mere treasures you speak of?"
"If I let you go, how can I face the mountains and rivers you have invaded?"
"How can I face the citizens of the Three Realms who died at your hands?"
"How can I face the righteous path of this heaven and earth?"
"How can I face my own conscience?"
