455: Shadow Mountains, the element of becoming a god!

Shadow Mountain.

The largest city of the Shadow Clan, built upon a mountain range.

The city's buildings, like terraced fields, spread upwards layer by layer.

A road, leading directly from the ground to the mountain's peak, was built on Shadow Mountain, with various Void Sea Creature that absorb Dark Element power residing on either side.

Here, sunlight is never seen throughout the year, obscured by a peak that soars into the mountaintop.

That colossal peak is called Shadow Mountain.

And at the highest point of Shadow City, an ancient castle stands.

The ruler of Shadow Mountain, Ba'al, was standing at the castle's entrance.

“Father!”

“City Lord Ba'al!”

Before him.

Were two Void Sea Creature, no more than teenagers.

Like Ba'al, they both had a pair of rhomboid horns on their heads.

“Hmm, the opportunity to become a god is about to appear. For countless years, I’ve been waiting for this day!”

“You two, just wait for Buster to open the gate, then follow him in and you must seize the Dark Element!”

Excitement flickered across Ba'al's slightly fierce face.

“Understood!”

Buster was their younger brother; one ranked first, one ranked second, and Buster was the third.

Now that he had stolen their thunder, the eldest and second naturally felt some displeasure, but since Buster had taken the lead, the two were helpless.

After all, their strength had already reached the peak of King-level, making it difficult to enter.

But Buster was only at King-level, so he could fully suppress his strength.

“However, Father, can Buster go alone?”

“What kind of talk is that? Could it be that Buster, having mastered Dark Element power, could still lose to those natives?”

The second brother's words carried a hint of disdain.

He regarded the Void Sea Creature of that area as mere weeds.

“No, what I mean is, we aren't the only force entering the cage. What if we are besieged by the Celestial God Clan and other Void Sea Creature?”

Upon hearing the eldest brother's question.

Ba'al not only didn't get angry but instead gave him an appreciative look.

“Ba Ying, you should learn more from your older brother, Ba Feng; your consideration of matters isn't thorough enough.”

Hearing his father's reprimand.

Even Ba Ying, who was usually uninhibited, lowered his head and said, “Yes!”

As Shadow Mountain's oldest Heavenly Beast-level powerhouse, if it weren't for the lack of elements, Ba'al would have already advanced to God Beast-level!

Now, as he approached becoming a God Beast-level Void Sea Creature, all his children had become much more filial than usual.

“Don't worry about this… He has something left by the Shadow God. It's made from the bones of a God Beast, and even a Heavenly Beast-level powerhouse would be affected by it,” Ba'al said slowly.

“It's the dark bell!”

Ba Feng looked up, his face full of disbelief.

“Father, the dark bell is the foundation of our Shadow Mountain's survival. You gave the dark bell to him?!” Ba Ying also dared not speak.

The dark bell was crucial to their Shadow Mountain; it was the key item for blocking light!

If other races knew they no longer had the dark bell, there was no telling what ideas they might get!

And that item held extraordinary significance.

It was made from the frontal bone of the former Shadow God Beast!

Legend has it that the dark bell was forged by the Shadow God Beast itself, which gouged out a piece of its frontal bone when it disappeared. Even if they found a God Beast's frontal bone, no one could destroy it!

At the same time.

In the coastal city.

“This is… serious? Fang Ran is here!”

Yue Baojun looked up at the sky.

The entire city was covered by a purple curtain.

A familiar mental tremor spread throughout the city, followed by several behemoths clashing in one spot!

“Is that Long Yu?!”

“She has already advanced to Emperor-level, enough to contend with the Queen of the Void Sea?”

“Is it really her? Since she has reached Emperor-level, who could possibly command her?”

The few Gold-level Members who had lost hope.

Their eyes looked into the distance, emitting an unprecedented light.

A powerful Void Sea Creature at the late Emperor-level; she seemed to have become stronger and more confident than before. Who could possibly command her?

“Boom!!”

Long Yu unleashed a sword strike!

A deep gully split open on the city's ground!

“Wings of Gale.”

Long Yu spread her wings.

Streams of white air swirled around her wings, forming a larger pair of gale wings!

She wielded her dragon blade, spinning and crashing into the Queen of the Void Sea's body. The violent storm continuously tore through the defenses on her body!

Steel-reinforced high-rises were twisted by her suction!

The Queen of the Void Sea instinctively controlled her body to resist!

Her tentacles, which had spread throughout the city and controlled the people and Beast Tamer, retracted to block Long Yu's offensive!

And those controlled civilians.

After losing control, most fainted on the spot.

Some, after regaining consciousness, looked towards the city center with terror.

“What is that? What happened?”

“Such a huge purple monster, and… a dragon-human?”

“Take pictures, take pictures and post them online!”

The still-conscious people were in a panic.

Aside from these controlled ordinary civilians.

Those who had already been transformed into Void Sea Creature could no longer awaken.

At the same time, Yue Baojun, not far away, looked at the surrounding liberated cages, his face instantly filled with excitement.

“Roar!!!”

Everyone's Beasts stood up one after another.

More than a dozen King-level Beasts were released simultaneously.

However, they were already covered in scars and could no longer exert their peak combat power.

“I still have some food here; it can help you recover your strength faster!”

Yue Baojun took out food and water, feeding them to several dying Beast Tamer.

After receiving energy, their spirits immediately improved significantly.

“That… that Celestial God has a dark bell that can control the Beast's mind! Don't let him shake it!”

An old man extended his hand and spoke tremblingly.

Yue Baojun's gaze turned to the distance.

The Queen of the Void Sea's body was slowly falling.

Having left the Void Sea, her abilities were greatly restricted, not to mention her inability to attack independently.

After several exchanges, she was no longer Long Yu's match, only able to resist by relying on her massive body.

And inside her body.

Buster shot up into the sky!

His pupils were red, and a trace of crimson hung at the corner of his mouth.

The fleshy lotus exploded in his dark energy, injuring his internal organs.

The Azure Dragon followed closely, roaring and biting at his body!

And in mid-air.

The God Egg suddenly appeared, blocking Buster's path.

“Tremor!”

She chanted softly.

Space fluctuated, bringing forth mental control power, causing Buster to experience a momentary pause!

And it was precisely because of this momentary pause that the Azure Dragon bit into his body!

And it was at this very moment.

Long Yu, noticing this, flew over with the dragon blade in her hand!

The dragon blade in her hand descended towards Buster's neck; it seemed that in the next second, his head could be severed and fall to the ground!

However, what greeted her was a crisp ringing sound!

“Ding-a-ling-ling!!”
