The force of explosions spread far and wide, covering the Cang Lan sect's inner court. With the missing barriers, there was nothing to stop the shock wave from proceeding and knocking down the remaining buildings.
As for the people who were caught in this shock wave?
A majority managed to survive simply due to the fact that the sect had already triggered a state of emergency and they had all retreated.
After all, the true emergency started right from the moment the outer court barrier of the sect had fallen. That and the six large bone pillars were had also killed quite a few people around where they had appeared.
This too contributed to many people escaping the sect. Though there were still a significant number of disciples that had yet to leave the sect. This was simply due to the fact that it would be against the rules to leave the sect when it was under distress.
Right now what they were doing was to assist all the guests in leaving the sect. Only after they were gone, would they try to do so as well.
"Elders! Protect the juniors!" The patriarch gave out orders to the elders within the sect.
There were many that had gone out to carry out orders earlier and thus they were perfect the protect the disciples in the outer and inner sect right now.
The core of the sect though was in a bad state now, having a quarter of its land flattened due to the many attacks that had been used here.
~SWOOSH~
Finally, the shockwave dissipated, causing a secondary gale of wind to blow around the sect. The blinding light disappeared as well, allowing them to look at the scene of devastation once more.
Their spirit senses were also not able to get past the turbulent spirit Qi from the attacks and thus they could only look with their eyes for now.
"WHAT!?" But when they looked at the area, they were stunned.
"How is it still fine!?" Cang Anyu shouted.
~crack~crack~crack~
'ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ No(v) e lBin ᴏɴʟʏ.',
The sound of ground cracking was heard, and a massive figure started to rise from it.
"That was a nice demonstration, I must say." The strange distorted voice of the Calamity Fiend could be heard again. "But I'm afraid nice is all I can say about it."
~RUMBLE~
The Calamity Fiend spoke before rising its head and body with it. The body continued to rise from the ground, and allowed everyone to realize just how large it really was.
"Heavens… this is truly a monster…" The elders said with deep shock.
From their original reports, the size of the Calamity Fiend was said to be around a hundred and fifty meters. But now that they saw it with their own eyes, it was easily double that.
"How can it grow this big in such a short time?" Patriarch Bing, who had seen the Calamity Fiend once before, said.
He had seen the full body of the Calamity Fiend, but this was a lot bigger than that.
"It really is tough." Shirong said after scanning the monster's body.
There was not a single trace of injury on the Calamity Fiend, and its aura also seemed to be stronger than before.
'How can my attacks not injure it at all? Even Senior Lin Wu praised that it was strong.' Shirong wondered.
This was a thought that everyone was having at this moment. After all, the Calamity Fiend had shrugged off multiple attacks from several Dao Treading realm experts. That too at once.
"Impossible, even Immortal Ascension realm elders will be injured from this." The female Dao Treading realm elder from the Long clan said.
The Long clan elders were the best to comment on this as they had two Immortal Ascension realm elders of their own. They had the most knowledge about such experts and what they could do.
After having pulled its entire body from the ground, the Calamity Fiend's multiple eyes gazed at everyone.
"Well then, I won't waste any more time and get started for real." The Monster spoke casually.
~ROAR!!!~
Then in the next moment, the Calamity Fiend opened its mouth wide, letting out an earth shaking roar.
The roar was different than a normal roar though, as everyone felt like their body was being hammered by hundreds of small weapons at this moment.
"W-what… is… this…" Wang Xiong muttered with great difficulty.
'This is a Qi skill… it's actually infusing spirit Qi into his roar to damage us.' Patriarch Bing realized, finding it a little familiar.
"Stop it!" Cang Anyu shouted before attacking.
This time, he used a different skill. "Three oceans whip!"
',
From his sleeves, three streams of water shot out. If one looked closer, they would see that this water wasn't actually corporeal and was made out of thousands of small runes.
Only an expert formation master would be able to recognize that each of the rune was actually in the Dao Script. But to actually understand what the runes meant would need an even greater expert and they would discover that the runes each read Ocean!
It was the Dao Script Character for Ocean and it was composed of several smaller characters such as water, drops, flow, waves and more.
Each sub character was from the Dao of Water and represented one part of it. After all, the Dao Of water gave rise to many derivative Daos and if one managed to compose all of them, they would find the true meaning of it.
But the significance of this was that it showed the cultivation base of patriarch Cang Anyu. Only those at the Dao Comprehension Stage of the Dao treading realm would be able to comprehend the Dao Traces at this level of depth.
As for them, appearing in the skill that Cang Anyu had used only meant that he had already mastered this aspect of his power.
This wasn't just any normal skill, it was a Dao Skill!
A Dao Skill that had had been created due to Cang Anyu's Dao Embryo!
