Chapter 48 - Chapter 48 Disaster and Chaos on the Land

This vast wild land is boundless. Towering mountains stand one after another. The forests are thick, ancient beasts roar, and fierce birds strike the sky. Here is completely in chaos!

"Moo..."

A roar of a wild ox resounded for hundreds of miles. With flames soaring into the sky, a colossal ox, as red as blood, over ten meters tall and thirty meters long, rushed out of a cracked mountain, carrying lava and wrapped in firelight.

It was precisely the Blazing Bull Demon, which had once fought a great battle with the Golden Suanni and had one of its fiery red large horns broken. It had existed for a long time and commanded great awe in the wild land. Even the elders of the Stone Village had grown up listening to its legends. Its four hooves tread on flames, and its entire body was bathed in firelight. Its red fur was as smooth as satin, shining with a red glow, as it charged towards the distance.

Behind it were countless fierce beasts, all of different species. Avoiding the lava and the fire, they followed it out of the vast mountains and charged towards the outside of the mountains.

"Ah... No!"

In a village of several hundred households, everyone was terrified. So many fierce beasts were charging over. The leading Blazing Bull Demon was far more powerful than their divine spirit. How could they resist?

The divine spirit of this village sensed something was wrong and immediately abandoned this place and fled, not daring to resist. In the end, it even merged into the tide of beasts and became one of them.

This was a tragic scene. The Blazing Bull Demon charged through. Let alone the divine spirit of this village, even the divine spirit of a large tribe would not be its match. Nothing could stop its steps. Stone houses, altars, etc. were directly lifted and shattered by its only remaining red large horn, brutally crushing everything in its way.

Dust soared into the sky as it charged towards the far end of the land.

Behind it, the fierce beasts all over the mountains and plains brandished their claws and pounced. These villagers fought desperately, but they seemed insignificant among this flood-like tide of beasts. The sounds of "Puff, puff" were endless. The sharp claws and snow-white teeth reaped one life after another.

This was a human tragedy. A village was submerged by the tide of beasts in the blink of an eye. The entire village was annihilated, and not a single person survived.

The same thing happened in other places. In just a short moment, seven or eight villages on the outer edge of the vast mountains were flattened, leaving behind large patches of blood.

Deep in the mountains, the two terrifying beings gave orders. All kinds of fierce birds and beasts dared not disobey. They rushed out in large numbers from the wild land and washed this land with blood.

In fact, some of the fierce birds and beasts were stopped. The little red bird and the being holding the iron rod halted them. Otherwise, there would be even more.

In the Xiaogu Mountain Town, a golden-haired lion charged over. Its fur was shiny, and its entire body flowed with golden rays of light. It walked upright, over twenty meters tall. A large horn grew on its brow, with lightning flashes. Its eyes were blood-red as it charged into the town.

"God, it's actually that golden-haired lion coming!" The people in the town were terrified. This was an ancient beast. Many elders had heard its legends in this wild land. No one expected it to arrive here.

"Run quickly!"

No one dared to resist. This remnant was extremely terrifying. As soon as it entered the town, it swung its paw, and immediately seven or eight people on the street were smashed, their flesh and blood smeared. Then with another claw, several stone houses collapsed, and more than ten people were crushed to death by the boulders.

The Xiaogu Mountain Town was in chaos. People fled in all directions, but terrifyingly discovered that the town was surrounded by fierce beasts. There was no way to escape. The tide of beasts appeared and submerged the place.

"Heaven, why do you punish us like this?" A white-haired elder looked up to the sky and roared angrily.

"Dad, save me!" A child was crying in terror.

...

The Xiaogu Mountain Town was plunged into panic. The end of the world had come. Everyone was fleeing for their lives, but found there was no way out. People roared in despair.

"Old golden-haired lion, I'll fight you to the death!" The number one expert in the town was a robust middle-aged man, carrying a broad sword over half a person's height. His beard and hair were bristling, and his entire body was shining as he charged towards the beast king.

"Puff!"

Unfortunately, he was far from being the match of this remnant. With just one claw, he was grabbed along with his sword and torn in two. Blood spurted high.

"Boom"

In the center of the town, the low stone mountain shook violently. A boulder rose from it, its entire body emitting a soft glow and covered with runes. It rushed forward rapidly.

"Dang!"

The golden-haired lion waved its sharp large paw and "Slap", it struck the boulder. Immediately, sparks flew everywhere, and the boulder rolled away.

"Roar..."

The tide of beasts submerged the Xiaogu Mountain Town. A group of fierce beasts charged forward and bit the boulder covered with runes. There was a clanging sound and stone chips flew everywhere. The boulder glowed, shaking out a powerful force. It continued to collide. In the blink of an eye, a group of fierce beasts were smashed into minced meat and blood splashed.

The golden-haired lion roared, and the entire town trembled. The large horn on its head emitted a brilliant beam of light. A bolt of lightning struck the boulder, and with a "Crack", several cracks appeared on it.

"You are so fierce and wild, washing this land with blood. Aren't you afraid of being punished? I am the descendant of the Mountain God!" The boulder glowed and sent out a divine thought fluctuation.

"Say these to the several beings in the mountains!" The golden-haired lion also sent out divine thought fluctuations. Opening its bloody mouth, it spat out an even more splendid lightning and then pounced on it entirely.

"Crack"

Despite the fierce resistance of the divine spirit of the Xiaogu Mountain Town and the interwoven runes, it was eventually smashed by this golden-haired lion, splashing a brilliant spray of blood, which was swallowed by the fierce beasts.

A moment later, the Xiaogu Mountain Town became ruins, with broken walls and collapsed houses and bloodstains everywhere. Everyone was dead, and not even their bones remained. They were all buried in the bellies of the fierce beasts.

The mountains and plains were full of fierce beasts. Outside the wild land was a scene like the end of the world. Led by the powerful remnants, the tide of beasts washed everywhere and charged towards the end of the land.

In the Stone Village, the willow tree was silent. The tender branch emitted a soft halo, covering the entire village. The tide of beasts charged, but avoided this place from a distance.

Perhaps, this was the only place that was spared.

"Creatures are suffering. I don't know how many people will die tragically. I'm afraid there won't be many villages left nearby." An elder of the clan sighed, his face showing sadness. Struggling and surviving in the wild land together, seeing a great disaster approaching, he couldn't help but feel sad and sympathetic.

He didn't know that this disaster was much more serious than he imagined. This was no longer a disaster around the mountains, but radiated to the boundless land!

On this day, blood splashed on the land. I don't know how many clans were destroyed. Fierce birds and beasts ran rampant, and prehistoric remnants appeared, sweeping across all the populated areas. This was a catastrophe.

In the vast mountains, chaotic gas filled the air. Divine light rose from time to time. The four supreme beings were in a decisive battle, competing for the sacred object.

Divine fire collapsed half of the sky. The colossal bird swept across the nine heavens. The fierce beast tore apart the firmament. The iron rod pierced through the clouds. The battle became more and more intense!

The crystal white sacred object changed hands several times and kept changing owners. It was obtained by the four beings respectively, but no one could truly possess it. The battle continued.

The dozen or so original precious bones of the ancient remnants could no longer protect this mountain range. The decisive battle of the four supreme beings made boulders fly here, and one mountain after another collapsed, being destroyed beyond recognition.

They moved while fighting, heading towards the distance. The battlefield became more and more vast, spreading wider and wider. The thousands of miles of the vast mountains could hardly accommodate them.

In the Stone Village, the charred willow tree suddenly trembled. The tender branch shone brightly with a green color that made people's hearts tremble. Gorgeous rays of light emitted, covering the entire village.

"Ah, what happened?" The little one, who was playing with the three young birds under the tree, looked up, showing a surprised expression.

All the villagers trembled. It felt like they were facing a deity. The ancient medicine tripod passed down in the clan glowed and resonated. On the tripod wall, the patterns of the ancient ancestors became clearer.

With a "Hum", the willow tree's green rays soared into the sky. One order divine chain after another interwove, making people unable to open their eyes. Then it covered the Stone Village and suddenly disappeared from the world. Nothing was left in this place.

Its entire body was charred and had suffered a devastating blow. In the face of the catastrophe, it could only protect itself and was unable to fight against the terrifying beings at that level.

"Hmm?"

In the distant part of the mountains, the mist was thick. A pair of green and gloomy eyes as large as lakes looked over here, extremely sensitive, and sensed something. It made a dull sound and said, "It actually fled away..."

"At this speed, I don't know how many days it will take to wash this land with blood. It's too slow." The fierce bird crossed the sky like a dark cloud. Its blood moon-like eyes emitted a terrifying evil aura.

"I hate the human race. Their reproductive power is astonishing. Let's do it ourselves and end it earlier!" The fierce beast growled. Its green eyes were filled with killing intent and shot out two bolts of lightning as thick as mountains, striking the original location of the Stone Village.

"Boom"

The mountains collapsed. The earth cracked. Dust soared into the sky. A deep pit appeared at the location of the Stone Village, like a large abyss, pitch black and bottomless.

"Eh, it turned out to be the fallen place of a deity. No wonder it took root here. What a pity, it succeeded!" The being with green eyes howled, its killing intent soaring to the sky.

The crystal white sacred object rose and fell, with flowing light and rays. The four beings were still at war, their precious techniques clashing. The entire vast mountain range was destroyed. There were broken mountains everywhere. They spread for thousands of miles and entered the vast land.

"You are so bloodthirsty. Aren't you afraid of retribution one day?"

"Who can subdue me?!" The terrifying being with a pair of green eyes roared. With this roar, all the clouds in the sky were actually shaken away.

The fierce bird was even more direct. With a flap of its wings, it covered the entire sky. The black mist billowed. Its body was larger than the dark clouds. This time, it grabbed the crystal white sacred object and flew tens of thousands of miles away.

The other three beings naturally pursued closely and launched fierce attacks.

"I hate the human race. I'll show you how to wash with blood!" The fierce bird howled. With a flap of its wings, it crossed the boundless land in an instant. The mountains and rivers retreated rapidly.

Soon, it arrived at a marquis territory belonging to the Thunder Clan, with a population of tens of millions. It threw aside the sacred object and directly washed this place with blood.

"Roar..."

It was clearly a fierce bird, but it emitted a beast's roar. Opening its beak, a terrifying black light rushed out and actually covered this marquis territory with a population of tens of millions.

The territory of the Thunder Clan was vast. There were one huge city after another, and the population was numerous and extremely prosperous. But today, it encountered the disaster of extermination!

Like a mountain torrent reversing its course, like a vast sea hitting the sky. After this marquis territory was covered by the black light, all the population soared into the sky and flew towards the huge open beak.

This was a terrifying scene, as if it were the end of the world. It was impossible to stop it because once the tens of millions of people were covered by the black light, it meant they could not survive.

In the black light, as long as one struggled, one would explode and turn into a blood mist!

"The Heaven-Swallowing Sparrow. It's actually a legendary Heaven-Swallowing Sparrow!"

"God, what great mistake did our clan make to have such a demonic bird that only appears in legends come to punish us!?"

...

Cries and wails came from within the Thunder Clan. Everyone was stunned and powerless to resist.

Struggling was futile. No one could save them. The black light covered the sky and this place. They could only watch as they were swallowed into that bird's mouth.

This was a terrifying scene. A huge fierce sparrow lay across the sky, its entire body surrounded by black mist, obscuring the entire sky. Its eyes were as large as blood moons. Opening its huge mouth, it swallowed all tens of millions of people.

"Puff", "Puff"...

After these people entered its mouth, they all exploded and turned into blood mist, which was swallowed into its belly.

"So much blood energy. I'm somewhat full after eating this much." Nourished by the blood energy, this Heaven-Swallowing Sparrow became energetic and swept away its fatigue.
