When the four major divine beasts appeared, the entire space was radiating with magnificent beams of light. There was auspicious Qi diffusing everywhere. The initial killing spirit that was in the air had disappeared completely. In the sky, four rays of light shone down through the clouds. The rays enveloped the figures of the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, and Black Tortoise.
"The arrival of the divine beasts is an auspicious sign," the Dragon Horse said gently. It immediately stopped attacking the four figures that were shrouded in light. Its gold eyes were fixed on the four major divine beasts that had appeared in the sky. Legend had it that the Azure Dragon, the White Tiger, the Vermillion Bird, and the Black Tortoise were auspicious beasts. They guarded the Square World and were a global representation of luck.
To a certain degree, the Heaven and Earth Four Spirits were of a much higher position than the average divine beasts. They were said to be even higher than immortals. However, although the Heaven and Earth Four Spirits had existed since time immemorial, nobody had ever seen them. Hence, even immortals could not say for sure if they truly existed.
There was one thing for certain, however, and that was the fact that in the world of Immortal Cultivators, there were many remarkable powers, mysterious principles, secret techniques, stratagems, and the like. Hence, there was a very close relationship between Immortal Cultivators and the Heaven and Earth Four Spirits. The laws and powers related to the Heaven and Earth Four Spirits were also very broad and numerous.
The Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem encompassed the Laws related to the Heaven and Earth Four Spirits. It could harness the auspicious energy from the Heaven and Earth Four Spirits and trigger its Body Differentiation Technique. It was not even a small portion of the Heaven and Earth Four Spirit's power, but to the average Immortal Cultivator, it was an exceptional power.
Almost as soon as the Heaven and Earth Four Spirits had appeared, the figures of the three major mystical beasts had been solidified in mid-air. They seemed extremely frightened as they looked at the four major divine beasts.
"How could he release such auspicious energy!" The Dragon Horse suddenly looked over at Mo Wen with a look of disbelief in its eyes. Its expression had turned solemn for the first time. It was an expression that the Dragon Horse would make only when faced with a dangerous situation that it could not handle.
"Four Guardians Heaven Sealing." Mo Wen extended his finger and tapped. Immediately, the Heaven and Earth Four Spirits flew out and formed a colorful beam.
The next moment, the colorful beam had disappeared. When it reappeared, it was above the head of the snow-white Dragon Horse. The colorful swirl descended and the Dragon Horse instantly inhaled it. Even with the Dragon Horse's abilities, there was no way of resisting it.
The body of the Dragon Horse was radiating with white light and burning in a radiant gold flame. There were waves of frightening power rolling out. However, it was no match for the auspicious light. Without any delay, the Dragon Horse had been engulfed completely by the swirl.
"Lord Dragon Horse!"
"Lord Dragon Horse…"
Both the Peacock Beast King and Dragon Beast King were so shocked that their expressions changed. They let out exclamations of shock and in their anxiousness, their bodies trembled and they teleported thousands of meters to appear before the auspicious swirl. They continued to attack the auspicious swirl, seemingly with the intention of destroying it. However, their power was no threat to the auspicious swirl at all and so they had no effect. Instead, all of the attacks aimed at the auspicious swirl were reflected back on the two mythical beasts.
Not only had the two renowned mythical beasts of the Fire Domain failed in their rescue attempt, but they had also sustained a whole body of injuries.
"They've really captured Dragon Horse." A surprised look flashed in Nangong Mingzhu's eyes. She could not believe that Mo Wen had actually captured the Dragon Horse, the head of the Fire Domain Beast Kings and the one whose cultivation was so strong that nobody could even fathom just how powerful it was. Everyone knew just how terrifying the Dragon Horse was. It was more formidable than the Peacock Beast King and Dragon Beast King combined. Being able to capture the Dragon Horse really meant a lot to all ancient martial art practitioners.
"He really succeeded…!"
"The Heaven and Earth Four Spirits are so strong that their auspicious power is indeed no match for any opponent."
"Perhaps we really do have a chance of winning!"
Looks of joy appeared in the eyes of all the human ancient martial art practitioners. Now that the Dragon Horse was captured, there was nothing that could faze them. Instantly, all of them held their heads up, and they were once again full of fighting spirit. Even their auras had strengthened significantly.
"What have you all done to Lord Dragon Horse?"
"B*stard, release Lord Dragon Horse at once. If not, I will swallow all of you alive."
The Peacock Beast King and Dragon Beast King had grown very flustered. The Dragon Beast King began to shout angrily at all the human ancient martial art practitioners beneath him. With a sway of his huge figure, he lunged towards the Four Guardians Light Shroud in an attempt to go all out for an attack. He did it with the aim of completely destroying the light shroud.
However, the Four Guardians Light Shroud was still as strong as ever. Previously, even with the collaboration of the three major mystical beasts, it had not been destroyed. Now that only the Peacock Beast King and Dragon Beast King remained, they would fail even more badly in trying to destroy it.
"Attack!" Mo Wen let out a light humph. With the flash of lightning, his figure disappeared on the spot. He was the first to leave the Four Guardians Light Shroud in an attack aimed at the Peacock Beast King.
Although the Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem had trapped Dragon Horse, Mo Wen knew that with Dragon Horse's strength, it would not be trapped for too long. It was not the Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem that was lacking in ability. It was them. Even if all the human ancient martial art practitioners joined forces to power the Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem, it would not be able to sustain it for long.
Now was the best time for them to kill the Peacock Beast King and Dragon Beast King. Each minute and second was very precious. The human ancient martial art practitioners had been well-prepared beforehand and followed Mo Wen as he headed for the Peacock Beast King and lunged at him.
At least 30 ancient martial art practitioners had dashed out of the Four Guardians Light Shroud. They split into two waves. The first wave lunged at the Peacock Beast King and the second one lunged towards the Dragon Beast King.
"Everyone, give it your all and do not hold back." With a slight turn of his body, Mo Wen lunged at the Dragon Beast King. Out of the three major mystical beasts, the Dragon Beast King was the easiest to kill. As he launched his attack, Mo Wen hurriedly instructed the other human ancient martial art practitioners to fight with all their might.
In a moment, rays of blue light were emitted from the Four Guardians Light Shroud. When all the inner Qi of the ancient martial art practitioners had been drained, the warriors immediately used their Recovery Lights, in order to continuously channel their energy into the Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem.
The light that was still trapping Dragon Horse within had morphed into another form. It seemed to experience a serious collision from the inside. However, no matter how its shape changed, it still did not break, all thanks to the additional and continuous energy pumped in by human ancient martial art practitioners.
Nangong Mingzhu followed closely behind Mo Wen and lunged at the Dragon Beast King at the same time. In the plan, Mo Wen had calculated that he and Nangong Mingzhu would lead 20 human ancient martial art practitioners to kill the Dragon Beast King in the quickest possible time. Meanwhile, Chu Yuan and Tan Qiyue would lead another 20 ancient martial art practitioners to slow down the Peacock Beast King, preventing the two mystical beasts from working together.
"Despicable human, you've come at the right time. I will eat all of you alive." The Dragon Beast King roared in anger and was not in the least bit afraid of a battle. Instead, it was bellowing continuously and was initiating the fight. The fact that Lord Dragon Horse was in danger had riled it up completely.
"You won't get the chance." With a flash of lightning, Mo Wen appeared in front of the Dragon Beast King. The Heavenly Serpent Divine Spear released a beam of lightning before it turned into a hundred-meter long divine spear illusion, viciously colliding with the Dragon Beast King.
"Humph! You overestimate yourself." The Dragon Beast King moved one of his dragon claws forwards and showed no fear of the sharp Heavenly Serpent Divine Spear. It aimed to destroy the illusion by using its claw to strike the Heavenly Serpent Divine Spear.
A frighteningly strong power exploded and Mo Wen was sent flying backward. Strong waves of energy radiated within his body, destroying his internal organs. Mo Wen was shocked. The Dragon Beast King was four to five times stronger than the Giant Crocodile Beast King. A simple strike like that could actually be so powerful.
However, Mo Wen had also improved greatly. Although he was no match for the blow that he had just been dealt, he had not been too badly injured.
"Can't even handle a single blow of mine." The Dragon Beast King let out a cold humph. It would not admit it, but it was also shocked. Its gaze grew more solemn. A portion of the scales in his claws had been destroyed, and there was blood flowing out, dripping into the sea below.
The human ancient martial art practitioner's Heavenly Serpent Divine Spear was very sharp. The Dragon Beast King had never encountered such a frightening weapon before. The strange long spear even had the potential to instill the fear of being destroyed. Even the Dragon Beast King, with its strong cultivation, could be terrified by it. It was simply unthinkable just what level this weapon was.
Without waiting for the subsequent attacks from the Dragon Beast King, the human martial art practitioners continued to attack him. The cultivations of the 20 other ancient martial art practitioners fighting alongside Mo Wen were no higher than the third realm Martial Arts Grandmaster. Hence, none of them were any threat to the Dragon Beast King at all. However, when they all joined forces and gathered their strength, they created a formidable power.
The powerful Grandmasters did not hold back in unleashing their signature attacks either. They went all out in their attack against the Dragon Beast King. Some Grandmasters even used talisman after talisman against the Dragon Beast King without a care. Other than their generous use of light tools, they used their talismans very casually as well. Amongst all the human ancient martial art practitioners, there was quite a number who owned at least ten talismans.
With the torrent of attacks, the Dragon Beast King got a fright. In the midst of a crimson light mass, his huge body immediately shrank. Although his thousand-meter body had looked very daunting, it was also a larger target area which made it an easier live target.
A black figure flew out suddenly. The Crimson Jade Miniature Tower in Mo Wen's hand suddenly emitted a bunch of crimson light mass. In the next moment, a Crimson Tower the size of a mountain appeared in mid-air, radiating a bunch of crimson light mass. Immediately, it engulfed the Dragon Beast King.
The Dragon Beast King's body stopped shrinking all of a sudden. It seemed to have met with an obstacle which maintained his length at 700 to 800 meters.
A large torrent of attacks descended upon the Dragon Beast King's body, causing serious injuries.
Awoo!
The Dragon Beast King let out a loud cry of pain. His large body jerked and an unbelievably large amount of power burst out of his body, directly enveloping the crimson light mass and destroying it. The giant Dragon Beast King swayed and used the Divine Dragon Tail Flick technique to crash viciously into the Crimson Moon Demonic Tower.
The Crimson Moon Demonic Tower was swatted by the Dragon Beast King's tail. However, even with such a powerful blow, it remained strong.
Nangong Mingzhu's face turned pale, and she coughed up a mouthful of blood. The frightening reflection force had caused her to be injured. A ruthless look flashed in her eyes as she gave it her all and the Crimson Moon Demonic Tower made a turn back in the opposite direction. It released a huge amount of crimson light mass which turned into thin rays of light that stemmed from nowhere. There was no stopping it as it tied itself around the Dragon Beast King like a piece of string.
