Reverend Ecstasy

While the Zhenwu clan's True Martial Divine Army suffered unthinkable casualties, the Nameless Sword Mountain's disciples gathered at the execution platform, cowering underneath the dark-gray lightning orb that flashed between the enemy leader's fangs.

A rare species of mysterious beasts, the Mountain-Toppling Lynx possessed remarkable control of the lightning element, control that rivaled even the Lightning Spirits of the Western Continent. As a peak-stage Anointed Holy Beast, this Mountain-Toppling Lynx's mastery over the lightning element was such that, in the eyes of the Qi Refinement to Pulse Condensation Nameless Sword Mountain disciples, that lightning orb was akin to heavenly tribulation.

To say nothing that 100 million mysterious beasts awaited at the back, that orb alone could erase three Nameless Sword Mountains from the face of the Great Desolation World.

The Mountain-Toppling Lynx fired at the Nameless Sword Mountain, clearly intending to wipe them out to the last man. Barely had the dark-gray lightning beam fired that the pressure unleashed by the blow crashed on the Nameless Sword Mountain's disciples, bringing them all to their knees. The peak-stage Divine Transformation Bai Renyi was no different — completely powerless before a creature by two realms his superior.

The disciples lost hope, shivering in the presence of imminent death. But here, mild rumbles spread across the Nameless Sword Mountain. The fifteen meters tall bronze greatsword at the back of the sect master's hall flashed with a swirl of radiant light, its massive iron chains shaking as it forced its way out of the ground.

That colossal sword turned into a white meteor, shooting towards the Mountain-Toppling Lynx's lightning beam.

The two sides collided, causing a deafening energy blast that sent the Nameless Sword Mountain's disciples rolling over the ground. The land trembled still. Large stone boulders detached themselves from the mountain, forming a spinning cluster of massive stones that stood in the way of the 29th horde.

Long bronze swords rose from underneath the sect, leaping across its walls to hover above the Nameless Sword Mountain. Each bronze blade rippled with formidable Sword Force. Swords and boulders united, joining the colossal sword in an awe-inspiring formation.

From the weakest of cannon fodders to the 12 Anointed Holy Beasts, as soon as the formation took shape, all felt their mysterious beast instincts rise to maximum alert. The Mountain-Toppling Lynx's eyes shifted between the colossal sword and the cluster of spinning swords and boulders.

Ancient memories resurfaced in his mind, and his face twisted into a wretched grimace.

"The Celestial Hall's...Colossal Sword Array," the Mountain-Toppling Lynx said, causing his subordinates' eyes to stretch impossibly.

Mysterious beasts lived for far longer than human cultivators. So while his Void Tribulant human counterparts only had 5,000 years of lifespan, this Mountain-Toppling Lynx was over 15,000 years old and knew much more about the Celestial Hall than his subordinates.

Barely had the lynx spoken these words that the colossal sword expanded, going from 15 to a full-blown 100 meters. The Sword Force intensified, becoming a current of razor-sharp energies that'd shred anyone that dared to graze it into pieces.

"Indeed. It's unusual for people nowadays to remember the Celestial Hall's techniques. But considering your age, I guess it's not that surprising. Good. At the very least, you won't die in ignorance." A calm voice echoed from a distant mountain peak, drawing the attention of Nameless Sword Mountain disciples.

Dressed in ordinary black swordsman clothes, Qiu Meng stepped into the air. His long white hair fluttered in the sky, matching the rhythm of the colossal sword, which drummed and shook in communion with its master.

The reincarnated immortal raised his right hand, conjuring a blast of formless energies that spread through the Colossal Sword Array.

Swords and boulders rose into the sky, becoming radiant blue meteors as they dropped towards the 29th Horde. The colossal sword led the charge, lighting up the scene with its murderous rays.

"Chimeric Beast Fusion!"

Without delay, the 100 million mysterious beasts united in their faction's textbook formation. Colorful energies of various schemes formed across the land, becoming tall flame pillars that curved towards the sky, and united the 29th horde into a chimeric monster whose flaming body showcased all the individual species that made up its essence.

Led by the Mountain-Toppling Lynx' Holy Sense, the chimeric beast opened its maw, releasing a sound blast that sent cracks throughout swords and boulders. But nigh-instantaneously, the cracks mended themselves, draining an immeasurable pool of energy that seemed to hide in the deepest recesses of the Nameless Sword Mountain.

Without hesitation, the chimeric beast spread its grotesque wings and launched itself at Qiu Meng's Colossal Sword Array. A blend of dark colors flashed in its eyes, and as the Colossal Sword Array approached with great strides, the chimeric beast turned into a mountain-sized fireball — slamming head-on into Qiu Meng's formation.

Another deafening blast reverberated throughout the land, this time spreading to the entirety of the Dongli state...and even beyond. The chimeric beast flew backward, and using the momentum to propel itself out of the Colossal Sword Array's range, it steadied itself high in the sky, looking down at this ancient formation and the young man that seemed to control it.

"Eldest senior brother is...so strong!" To say nothing of the mysterious beasts. Even the Nameless Sword Mountain's disciples couldn't believe their eyes. All marveled at Qiu Meng's splendid display, wondering when and how their prime disciple had grasped such formidable methods.

Zuixian and Haoyue were no different. Even Bai Renyi didn't expect Qiu Meng to be able to execute this formation.

'The Boss was right. The Nameless Sword Mountain hides much more than meets the eye. Thankfully, we came prepared. Otherwise, the 29th Horde would have gotten wiped out here.' The Mountain-Toppling Lynx thought, frowning at the Colossal Sword Array.

In the outside world, the mysterious beasts referred to Daji as Emperor, but among themselves and inside the Myriad Beast Gang's domains, they just called her boss.

And indeed, Daji had warned the 29th horde that the Nameless Sword Mountain might hide more than the world assumed. For that reason, she gave them a trump card. But though he came prepared for the unknown, the Mountain-Toppling Lynx didn't expect that, after a single collision with the Colossal Sword Array, their Chimeric Beast Fusion would suffer such severe damages.

At this rate, it wouldn't be long before the formation collapsed, turning the 100 million beasts into meat on Qiu Meng's cutting board.

But though the 29th Horde's situation appeared grim, the Mountain-Toppling Lynx didn't lose his cool. Better, as he stared at Qiu Meng's confident stance, he couldn't help but sneer.

"What? Did this tiny array give you the confidence that you could singlehandedly resist the Myriad Beast Gang? What an adorable...and laughable belief.

The Emperor has ordered the Nameless Sword Mountain's destruction. So today, Heaven itself cannot save the Nameless Sword Mountain...from vanishing from this world!" The Mountain-Toppling Lynx roared at Qiu Meng and, to the shock of all Nameless Sword Mountain disciples and distant watchers...he broke the Chimeric Beast Fusion, causing the 100 million beasts to return to the ground.

With the Chimeric Beast Fusion, the 29th Horde could barely hang on. Without, they'd get slaughtered in a flash. Anyone could recognize these facts. And yet, from cannon fodders to Anointed Holy Beasts, all smiled at the Nameless Sword Mountain's disciples.

"Brothers and sisters of the 29th Horde, the probe is over! Time to serve the main course!

Activate your talismans!" The Mountain-Toppling Lynx ordered, and in tandem, the 100 million mysterious beasts opened their mouths, each releasing one lilac-colored amulet that glowed with Daji's aura.

100 million portals formed before each amulet, opening gates that led straight to another horde of the Myriad Beast Gang.

Each member of that horde stepped out of their respective portal, and as they landed at the foot of the Colossal Sword Array, all could feel that the weakest member of this new horde had Beast King cultivation.

As for the strongest...they all had peak-stage Holy Beast Kings cultivation, led by one gracefully voluptuous woman that, unlike her peers, appeared in human form.

"Our sincere apologies. The first and second hordes are busy taking down the Imperial City, so you will have to make do with us: the Third Horde.

But have no fear. I'm here to make sure...that you will have the war you deserve," Zhiji Jing said, and as the aura of a Beast Sovereign erupted from her monster core, the Colossal Sword Array...shattered instantly.
