Chapter 150: Five Saints Ultimate Transformation

'True Lord Seven Fiends came too?'

You were secretly alarmed. Decades ago, the war between the Taiyuan Region and the Jiuyou Region had left rivers of blood in its wake, and True Monarch Zixu had clashed with True Lord Seven Fiends dozens of times.

By all rights, they were no different from mortal enemies.

Yet now, both sides stood united to fight the Tier 4 beast kings.

After a moment of careful thought, you no longer found it strange.

Even ordinary mortals understood the principle that if one falls, the other is exposed to grave danger, let alone the lofty Nascent Soul True Monarchs.

If the Taiyuan Region was truly overrun by demonic beasts, the neighboring Jiuyou Region wouldn't fare any better.

'Three Nascent Soul True Monarchs...' You thought for a moment, then controlled your Spirit-Attached Puppet to move back several hundred li. You only stopped when you were over a thousand li away from the frontline battlefield.

Three Nascent Soul True Monarchs, plus the two Tier 4 beast kings from the deepest parts of the Myriad Beast Mountain Range—one of which even possessed a True Spirit Bloodline... You felt it was best to keep your distance.

The divine sense of an early-stage Nascent Soul True Monarch covered roughly a thousand li. Furthermore, given the materials of your Spirit-Attached Puppet, even if a True Monarch's divine sense swept over your position, they would most likely overlook it.

You chose to keep your distance because you feared being caught in the crossfire.

Three Nascent Soul True Monarchs and two Tier 4 beast kings added up to five Tier 4 combatants.

Once they went all out, everything within several hundred to a thousand li could be reduced to ruins.

Your Spirit-Attached Puppet was only low-grade Tier 3; it couldn't possibly withstand the shockwaves of a battle between True Monarchs.

'Three against two. The Nascent Soul True Monarchs have a high chance of winning.'

You analyzed the situation silently. The greatest threat on the beast side was the Tier 4 beast king with the True Spirit Bloodline. As for the Tier 4 Eagle King, any of the Nascent Soul True Monarchs could handle it alone.

Under normal circumstances, a Tier 4 beast king with a True Spirit Bloodline possessed peak early-stage Tier 4 combat power. It could suppress a single Nascent Soul True Monarch, and under special circumstances, even heavily injure them.

But against two Nascent Soul True Monarchs? It could hold its ground, at most.

A Tier 4 beast king with a True Spirit Bloodline was terrifyingly strong, but was any True Monarch who had managed to cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage weak?

There was no strict disparity between the two sides. In a way, the True Spirit Bloodline beast king merely relied on its inherited legacy, whereas the Nascent Soul True Monarchs were all exceptional geniuses favored by destiny who had fought their way to the top through countless cultivators.

'Even for the Tier 4 beast king with the True Spirit Bloodline, its ultimate fate should be retreating back into the deepest parts of the Myriad Beast Mountain Range,' you pondered.

This wasn't out of confidence in True Monarch Zixu and the other two. Rather, you knew very well that as time passed, the number of Nascent Soul True Monarchs gathering here would gradually increase.

At the very least, in the nearby regions and the wildlands you knew of, there were more Nascent Soul True Monarchs than Tier 4 beast kings.

If the war bogged down, True Monarch Zixu would continue to call upon his friends and allies, meaning new Nascent Soul True Monarchs would likely join the fray.

After all, a Tier 4 beast king represented wealth that would make even a Nascent Soul True Monarch covetous.

The Tier 4 beast king with the True Spirit Bloodline had countless tricks up its sleeve, making it extremely difficult for an early-stage Nascent Soul True Monarch to kill.

But the Tier 4 Eagle King was a treasure inside and out in the eyes of the True Monarchs.

After reaching the Nascent Soul stage, every step forward in cultivation was like crossing an insurmountable chasm. With his heavenly spiritual root aptitude and some sort of treasure body talent, True Monarch Zixu had successfully condensed his Nascent Soul and joined the ranks of the True Monarchs before the age of two hundred.

Yet, even at eight hundred years old, he remained stalled at the early Nascent Soul stage.

This alone showed just how difficult cultivation was at the Nascent Soul stage.

Relying solely on themselves, the vast majority of True Monarchs would never break through to the mid-stage in their lifetimes.

Therefore, external resources were incredibly important, and the corpse of a Tier 4 beast king represented a massive hoard of Tier 4 resources.

From its skin and blood to its bones and internal organs, every part was immensely useful to a Nascent Soul True Monarch.

'Oh! They're fighting!'

Over a thousand li away, your expression shifted slightly as you faintly sensed terrifying ripples of mana.

This was the Nascent Soul True Monarchs attacking with full force, their mana sweeping across everything.

Screech!!!

A soul-shaking cry echoed out. Even from over a thousand li away, you could vaguely see a massive gray eagle, as large as a mountain, spreading its wings to shred the mana barrier constructed by the three Nascent Soul True Monarchs.

'The Tier 4 Eagle King?'

Your expression grew solemn. The deepest parts of the Myriad Beast Mountain Range were this Tier 4 Eagle King's territory.

'Speaking of which, the beast king with the True Spirit Bloodline is also an avian beast king. Could it be a descendant of this Tier 4 Eagle King that experienced atavism and awakened a True Spirit Bloodline?'

Safe enough over a thousand li away, numerous thoughts surfaced in your mind.

Demonic beasts capable of cultivating to the Tier 4 beast king level mostly possessed extraordinary bloodlines, basically all originating from heaven-grade lineages.

Most heaven-grade lineages were extensions of the bloodline of some True Spirit immortal beast, though the chances of awakening it were practically nonexistent.

It was just like the Ancient Saint Bloodline. In ancient times, the blood of the Ancient Saints had spilled across the mortal realm, leaving an incredibly thin trace of the Ancient Saint Bloodline flowing in the veins of most humans.

But it was useless. Only by awakening it could one stimulate the true potential of the Ancient Saint Bloodline, and so far, you had only ever seen Dachun awaken it.

'In the next simulation, if I possess Nascent Soul strength, I could sneak into the deepest parts of the Myriad Beast Mountain Range to take a look...'

You thought to yourself. If you could seize control of that yet-to-mature True Spirit Bloodline beast king ahead of time, it would definitely be a massive harvest for you.

The Tier 4 Eagle King had lived for over a thousand years. Even starting from your initial anchor point, you couldn't simulate far back enough to when it was still weak.

But the beast king with the True Spirit Bloodline was different. At the very least, it had only broken into the Tier 4 level within the last two hundred years. If your luck held, you could pinpoint the exact moment before it reached Tier 4 and seize control.

Even if you were a few years late, you could catch it at its most vulnerable moment just after entering Tier 4 and suppress it.

Even if you couldn't enslave it, you could kill it and obtain the corpse of a True Spirit Bloodline beast king.

The corpse of a standard Tier 4 beast king was enough to tempt a Nascent Soul True Monarch, let alone one with a True Spirit Bloodline.

Putting everything else aside, you knew of several pill recipes that required a True Spirit Bloodline beast king.

For example, the True Spirit Extreme Transformation Pill—a top-tier Nascent Soul condensation spiritual item that was half a grade superior to even the Nascent Soul Formation Pill.

And the Five Saints Ultimate Transformation Pill, which could provide a slight boost when breaking through from the mid-stage to the late Nascent Soul stage.

Especially the latter. Breaking through from early to mid-stage Nascent Soul was already extremely difficult, let alone from mid to late-stage.

Every late-stage Nascent Soul Great Cultivator was a living legend, pursuing the ethereal path to Deity Transformation.

Rumble—

Over in the frontline battlefield, the mana ripples at the Nascent Soul level grew increasingly distinct.

A completely blood-red roc flapped its wings. Blood-red flames burned in all directions, constantly canceling out the Nascent Soul power of the True Monarchs.

Compared to the two mountain-sized Tier 4 beast kings, the figures of True Monarch Zixu, True Lord Seven Fiends, and True Monarch Shangxiao were as tiny as specks of dust. However, the rings of mana clouds condensing around the three True Monarchs spanned several li. They exuded a majestic, towering presence as they continuously clashed with the terrifying demonic power of the Tier 4 beast kings.

'Is that the beast king with the True Spirit Bloodline?'

You watched from afar. Despite the distance of over a thousand li, you could still sense the terrifying nature of those burning blood-red flames.

Even a Core Formation stage true person would die upon contact, utterly incapable of resisting.

'Huh? Something isn't right.'

You faintly detected an anomaly. Under the blood-red roc's relentless attacks, the three Nascent Soul True Monarchs were retreating step by step.

'That's right. True Lord Seven Fiends isn't using his full strength, and even True Monarch Shangxiao is holding back...' You saw the truth of the matter: in this desperate battle, only True Monarch Zixu was sparing no effort. The other two True Monarchs were holding back.

Conversely, on the Tier 4 beast kings' side, the Eagle King repeatedly tore apart the mana barrier erected by the three True Monarchs, even at the cost of physical injury.

"Fellow Daoist Seven Fiends, if you keep this up, you might as well return to your Jiuyou Region and wait for these two beast kings to slaughter their way into your Jiuyou Cult," True Monarch Shangxiao said casually, standing tall beneath the heavens as he shot a glance at True Lord Seven Fiends.

The reason he hadn't gone all out was to guard against the Seven Killings Demon Lord.

This demonic-path True Monarch was treacherous and ruthless; he hadn't earned True Monarch Shangxiao's trust.

"Hahahahaha! In that case, this Cult Master will no longer hold back."

The Seven Killings Demon Lord stood nine feet tall. Called out like this, he showed no shame whatsoever and simply took a light breath.

In an instant, it seemed as if all the surrounding light was being sucked into the Seven Killings Demon Lord's mouth. When he exhaled, a stream of black energy shot out from between his lips.

Emanating an unparalleled sharpness, the black energy instantly darted toward the distant Tier 4 Eagle King, piercing right through its right wing.

Beast king blood spilled through the air.

Originally, the Tier 4 Eagle King didn't care much. With its mountain-like size, a minor puncture wound like this couldn't affect it at all; it would heal on its own after a short while.

But a moment later, the Tier 4 Eagle King's expression turned grave. It clearly felt an unstoppable, rotting corrosion spreading from the puncture wound, eroding its entire body.

The Tier 4 Eagle King's aura instantly plummeted.

Seeing this, True Monarch Zixu and True Monarch Shangxiao immediately unleashed their full power. They bombarded the Tier 4 Eagle King, planning to seize this opportunity to inflict heavy damage.

As long as the Tier 4 Eagle King was dealt with, the remaining blood-red roc would inevitably fall to a disadvantage against the three Nascent Soul True Monarchs.

Not far away, blood-red flames faintly danced in the eyes of the blood-red roc.

Whoosh!

In the next moment, the blood-red roc's aura surged wildly as it opened its beak and unleashed a roar at the three Nascent Soul True Monarchs!

A wave of soul energy swept across a hundred li like an ocean. True Monarch Zixu's expression changed drastically, and he immediately threw himself into a frantic retreat.

Previously, when he ventured deep into the Myriad Beast Mountain Range with his Nascent Soul spirit body, it was this exact move from the blood-red roc that had heavily injured him, almost causing him to lose his Natal Purple Bell.

Because of that, True Monarch Zixu prudently fought with his physical body this time, completely unwilling to let his Nascent Soul emerge.

This move by the blood-red roc specifically targeted the soul and Nascent Soul, leaving almost no way to resist.

"Retreat!"

True Monarch Shangxiao and the Seven Killings Demon Lord also retreated explosively without hesitation.

This move by the blood-red roc was undoubtedly a trump-card killing technique; it couldn't be used repeatedly.

Thus, the three Nascent Soul True Monarchs only needed to temporarily evade its brunt.

'That is!'

Right at that moment, the retreating True Monarch Zixu's pupils shrank, and he looked toward the blood-red roc in utter disbelief.

He didn't know when, but a figure had appeared behind the blood-red roc.

This figure wore red-and-gold robes, had a broad face with a square forehead, and a mark like a sheer cliff set horizontally between his brows. He stood with his hands clasped behind his back, observing the blood-red roc.

Even though the soul ripples radiating from the blood-red roc spanned hundreds of li like a vast ocean—something even Nascent Soul True Monarchs refused to face head-on—before this figure, they were merely a gentle breeze brushing against his face.

'He is...'

True Monarch Shangxiao's heart tightened, faintly recognizing the man's background.

Because the Zixiao Domain possessed cross-domain teleportation arrays, its True Monarchs throughout the ages had all been extremely knowledgeable.

"The concentration of the True Spirit Bloodline barely meets the standard. It's enough to serve as the main ingredient to refine the Five Saints Ultimate Transformation Pill..."

The figure in the red-and-gold robes nodded slightly. He then reached out with his right hand and pressed down toward the blood-red roc.

Buzz—

The blood-red roc shuddered as if struck by lightning, its soul bearing an indescribable crushing weight.

Without any hesitation, the blood-red roc abandoned everything. It condensed its soul into its demonic core and shot out of its own body.

Unlike human cultivators who relied on shattering the core to form the nascent soul, Tier 4 beast kings continued to refine their demonic cores.

However, just as the blood-red roc's demonic core emerged, it fell right into the hands of the red-and-gold-robed figure.

The red-and-gold-robed figure casually sealed the demonic core, then smoothly stored away the massive corpse of the blood-red roc below.

"Screech!"

Nearby, the Tier 4 Eagle King was scared out of its wits. Without hesitation, it burned its origin essence blood, transformed into a violent gust of wind, and vanished from the spot.

"Oh?"

The red-and-gold-robed figure glanced at the Tier 4 Eagle King. It had already fled tens of thousands of li away, escaping the range of his divine sense. He couldn't be bothered to pursue it.

Now that he had obtained the final main ingredient to refine the Five Saints Ultimate Transformation Pill, there was no need to waste time chasing down a beast king that specialized in fleeing.

"Greetings, True Monarch Chongtian..."

Right then, True Monarch Shangxiao in the distance slowly approached and bowed respectfully to the red-and-gold-robed figure.

'True Monarch Chongtian...'

True Monarch Zixu and True Lord Seven Fiends were shaken; they had vaguely heard of this Nascent Soul True Monarch from a distant domain.

"You know me?"

The red-and-gold-robed figure looked at True Monarch Shangxiao, speaking with interest.

"The influence of the Dazhou Immortal Dynasty, and the illustrious name of True Monarch Chongtian... Even across such vast distances, I have heard of them," True Monarch Shangxiao said solemnly.

"Hmm."

The red-and-gold-robed True Monarch Chongtian nodded slightly. "My dynasty is currently constructing the World-Crossing Immortal Boat. If any of you excel in the art of puppetry, you might as well head to the Dazhou Immortal Dynasty to offer your services. As for compensation, I guarantee it will not be lacking."
