　　The Dutian Demonic Deity Formation, since the Qi family’s establishment and gradual rise, has been continuously repaired and enhanced.
　　Since the end of the internal strife within the Spirit Sword Pavilion, this formation has remained unused！
　　Everyone knows the Qi family is the Spirit Sword Pavilion’s staunch ally—who would dare move against them？
　　Yet today, it had to be activated！
　　The hundred-zhang-tall bull-horned demonic deity stood tall and imposing, its visage menacing.
　　Its crimson eyes fixed intently on Ye Wushuang, its entire body wreathed in baleful energy.
　　Ye Wushuang looked up calmly and said, “The Dutian Demonic Deity Formation—the Qi family’s ultimate life-preserving formation！”
　　”If Qi Zhenzhong and over forty Star-Plucking experts joined forces to activate it, they might stall me for a while. But with just over a dozen Star-Plucking experts, none at the peak realm, how can you stop me？”
　　As Ye Wushuang’s words fell, he raised his hand and swung his sword.
　　Ten Thousand Flames Sword Art.
　　Third Form： Flames Devour the Heavens！
　　With a single sword strike, the Earthfire Four Symbols Core Flame surged forth with the sword energy, roaring out as countless sword energies condensed into countless flames, crashing violently onto the hundred-zhang-tall demon god’s body.
　　Boom　boom　boom…
　　One after another, the sword energies tore through with devastating force, while the demon god’s body abruptly swung its sword to slash out, blocking the incoming sword energies. The shield before it trembled violently before hurtling forward.
　　But…
　　It was only a momentary clash.
　　Boom…
　　The　next　moment.
　　The earth shook and mountains quaked.
　　The hundred-zhang-tall demon god’s phantom collapsed in an instant under the devouring force of the sword energies.
　　Its body exploded, immediately releasing thousands of spiritual energy strands, carrying scorching flames—chaotic, frenzied, and erupting wildly in all directions.
　　Then…
　　Those strands crashed onto the ground, igniting the entire Qi family estate, with hundreds of locations blazing skyward.
　　This was the Earthfire Four Symbols Core Flame fused by Ye Wushuang, refined by Heavenly Fire Essence Stone, nearly reaching the level of Heavenly Flames—how could ordinary rain possibly extinguish it？
　　Curses, wails, and cries of grievance filled the air incessantly.
　　And those dozen or so Qi Family Star-Gathering Realm elites also suffered backlash from the formation, each vomiting blood as they plummeted to the ground, smashing through one Qi Family building after another, their fates unknown.
　　Inside and outside the Qi Family estate, thousands of martial artists witnessed this scene, standing dumbfounded like idiots, utterly clueless about what to do.
　　This Ye Wushuang, rumored to have reached the peak of the Star-Gathering Realm… everyone only knew his cultivation advanced rapidly, but who could have imagined his mastery over his own power was so refined, and his explosive force could reach such terrifying heights?
　　”Come！”
　　With cold eyes, Ye Wushuang gave a sharp shout while beckoning with his palm.
　　The Golden-Winged Spirit Falcon shot forward in an instant.
　　Though currently at the late-stage Star-Gathering Realm, its speed was no weaker than peak-level experts of the same realm.
　　With over a dozen Star-Gathering Realm experts in the Qi Family all injured, its appearance now left no one capable of stopping it.
　　”Wake　up　too！”
　　Ye Wushuang clenched his fist, revealing the small, adorable Crimson God Insect in his palm.
　　”You little freeloader, lazing around eating and sleeping all day won’t cut it anymore. Before, you thought I couldn’t compare to your previous master, but now—things are different！”
　　”This place has endless blood qi for you to absorb, and this blood qi is many times more powerful than the meager amount that the Kirin Blood Vine exudes.”
　　Ye Wushuang raised his palm and said, “Go on, let’s see what rank you can evolve to this time！”
　　The small, squid-like figure of the Crimson God Worm burrowed into the ground and quickly disappeared from sight.
　　Without wasting words, Ye Wushuang gripped the Holy Heaven Sword and charged toward the Qi Family’s mansion.
　　One by one, the injured Star-Snatchers of the Qi Family regrouped, attempting to block Ye Wushuang.
　　But for Ye Wushuang, who had reached the peak of the Transformation Realm, these charging foes were merely throwing themselves to their deaths.
　　Each Star-Snatcher could be dealt with in just a single sword strike.
　　Soon, over a dozen injured Star-Snatchers of the Qi Family fell under Ye Wushuang’s blade.
　　Subsequently, those at the Delusion Realm level had no choice but to begin encircling Ye Wushuang.
　　But this was nothing more than a mantis trying to stop a chariot！
　　Screams！
　　Curses！
　　Wails！
　　The sounds never ceased, echoing throughout the Qi Family’s mansion and beyond.
　　”We can’t hold him off！”
　　A Delusion Realm expert at the seventh calamity level shouted, “Quick, take the clansmen and flee! He alone can’t chase all of us.”
　　Boom…
　　At this moment, an earth-shattering roar erupted.
　　The entire Qi family mansion and the town’s ground trembled at this instant.
　　Cracks began to appear on the ground, gradually widening, causing many buildings to collapse.
　　And then…
　　Thick, blood-red tentacles, like octopus arms, rampaged out from the ground’s fissures, wrapping around the Qi family members.
　　Bang　bang　bang…
　　Every Qi family member struck exploded into a mist of blood, boiling and spreading.
　　But that blood mist was directly absorbed by the tentacles, which then grew even stronger and more terrifying.
　　Crimson　God　Worm！
　　By devouring blood and qi, it can rapidly grow stronger, even accumulating enough to break through and ascend in rank.
　　In its true form, it looks like a cute little inkfish, translucent and soft.
　　But in this frenzied state, its countless tentacles become an absolutely lethal killing weapon.
　　Ye Wushuang.
　　Golden-Winged　Spirit　Falcon.
　　Crimson　God　Worm.
　　One man and two beasts charged forward relentlessly at this moment.
　　Star-Picking Realm experts and Deluded Self Realm experts were utterly powerless to stop Ye Wushuang and the Golden-Winged Spirit Falcon’s slaughter.
　　As for those Void Refinement, Return to Origin, and Myriad Laws realm martial artists attempting to flee, all were beheaded by the Crimson God Worm’s antennae.
　　The rain fell heavier and heavier.
　　The blood on the streets of the Qi family’s mansion flowed more and more.
　　Yet the screams, wails, and curses grew fainter and weaker.
　　From the moment Ye Wushuang appeared before the Qi family until their mansion became a sea of flames—a hellscape—only about half an hour had passed.
　　The entire Qi family mansion lay in ruins at a glance, with corpses bearing gruesome deaths scattered everywhere.
　　Gradually, within and outside the Qi residence—resembling a small city—only the flashes of lightning and the roar of torrential rain filled the air.
　　Ye Wushuang stood atop a high tower, letting the rain pour over him.
　　The Golden-Winged Spirit Falcon shrank to about ten feet tall and perched not far from Ye Wushuang.
　　”After tonight, the Qi family will cease to exist in the Tianyuan Continent！”
　　Ye Wushuang’s voice was calm and indifferent.
　　”Huaihua…”
　　Ye Wushuang slowly raised a hand, reminiscing, “I’m sorry… this day came too late for you.”
　　Not just for Lin Huaihua—it was too late for Lin Yunjin, Xia Yuanzheng and his wife, and the tens of thousands of Lin family clansmen as well！
　　The downpour continued unceasingly; the thunder and lightning never stopped.
　　At some unknown time.
　　On the edge of a palace in the Qi family, a figure suddenly appeared.
　　Then, behind that figure, over a dozen figures clad in black-and-white striped armor emerged, each wielding weapons with restrained auras.
　　A bolt of lightning flashed, illuminating the man’s face.
　　His figure was tall, clad in a blood-red soft armor, with regular features and eyes that shone especially bright in the darkness of night.
　　The man, along with the dozen or so behind him, stood no more than a hundred zhang away from Ye Wushuang.
　　The golden-winged spirit falcon standing beside Ye Wushuang sensed the murderous intent emanating from this group and immediately glared fiercely, letting out a low, threatening cry toward them.
