Beast Taming, my intelligence updates daily.

Chapter 385 Yellow Spring Marsh

Huang Jianzhong picked up the Earth Scepter and pointed it sharply into the sky.

Countless rocks are gathered in the air.

Large amounts of rocks fell continuously from the sky like rain.

These rocks are all bigger than each other.

“I’m called Ah Jian of the Earth, and that’s no joke.”

"Earth Element - Elemental Transformation".

The rocks crashed heavily to the ground, crushing some of the still-surviving humans hiding in the houses into a bloody mess.

The blood turned into a blood mist and surged into the altar in the sky.

The altar appeared to have become even more crimson.

"As expected, it worked. As long as Lord Andors' main body successfully landed on Earth."

"He will appear here in the form of a saint."

"None of the Four Virtues or the Five Marshals are a match for Lord Andors."

"I will also become someone second only to one person, above ten thousand others."

"Hmph, I have never been recognized by the Twenty-Eight Constellations. This time, I will rise to the top in one step, replace the high and mighty Marshal Qilin, and become the ruler of Yan Kingdom."

After hearing Huang Jianzhong's words, Xingxianzhe seemed to be amused.

"With his intelligence, it's going to be difficult for him to become the Marshal of the Qilin."

"So what if he's a Saint? With the help of the Hall of Fortune, Marshal Qilin is enough to suppress a Saint."

"Don't assume that just because a god is high above, he has the right to be awesome."

"Once you pass through the crystal wall and enter here, even the most powerful gods will only be at the level of a saint."

"Andos, if you're smart, go back to hell."

"Once your true form enters Blue Star, your strength will only be that of a Saint, or even weaker than a Saint."

The Star Sage licked his lips, revealing his sharp canine fangs.

She looked in Andors' direction with an expression of utter astonishment.

"In fact, I really want to try what it would feel like to create a divine power battery from a living god."

This is the Star Sage's incredibly insane plan.

"However, my junior apprentice has indeed made remarkable progress."

"I believe that soon he will be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with me."

The Star Sage stretched lazily, looking at Ye Bai with an expression of anticipation.

Ye Bai always felt that someone was watching him, but he could never find where that person was.

"What on earth is going on?"

"Could there be other powerful enemies lurking in the shadows?"

Ye Bai secretly kept a watchful eye on things.

"If that's the case, then we'll have to secretly build up our strength."

Ye Bai knew very well that the Devouring Pelican was for his own survival, and he would avoid using it unless absolutely necessary.

"By the way, Netherworld Wolf, you infiltrate into the shadows, travel through the shadows, and destroy the other Angel Bones."

Upon hearing Ye Bai's command, the Netherworld Hell Wolf darted out from Ye Bai's shadow. It needed to destroy the Angel's Bone as soon as possible to weaken Huang Jianzhong's power.

"I'm a rather cautious person, and to avoid any unforeseen complications, I've decided to use my most proficient skill, the Swamp of the Underworld, to deal with you."

"In the Yellow Springs Swamp, only the earth elementals I summon can move freely."

Huang Jianzhong raised the Earth Scepter high and slammed it down heavily onto the ground.

With a loud bang, black mud spread outwards like a rolling giant wave.

"What is this stuff? It looks like asphalt."

Ye Bai sat on the Myriad Transformations Butterfly, but a suction force emanated from the black asphalt.

"This is my personal domain, the Swamp of the Dead."

"All the undead I have defeated will be collected here and become my puppets."

Huang Jianzhong said coldly.

This is his biggest secret.

That's also his talent.

Ye Bai's gaze fell upon the Yellow Springs Swamp below.

The Swamp of the Dead is a terrifying land of the dead.

The jet-black liquid gleamed faintly against the dim sky.

The luster was eerie and chilling, as if it could devour all light and heat.

Above the swamp, a thin, black, ghostly mist drifted slowly, appearing and disappearing like a series of dark curtains, shrouding this desolate land in a mysterious and terrifying atmosphere.

Countless wailing spirits floated and sank in this black, asphalt-like liquid.

Their faces were contorted, their expressions pained.

These spirits had empty, lifeless eyes, but their movements were unusually synchronized, as if they were searching for something in the swamp or following some unknown call.

Ye Bai saw a living Death-Slaying Emperor Crow flapping its wings and flying in a panic over the swamp. The black liquid churned and surged, forming a giant black hand that grabbed the Death-Slaying Emperor Crow and slammed it onto the swamp.

The spirits seemed to be awakened; their roars pierced through the mist and into the eardrums, instilling endless fear in people's hearts.

They all scurried quickly toward the direction of the Death-Say-Raven.

In just a short while, the Death-Slaying Emperor Raven turned into piles of white bones and sank completely into the black liquid.

Its soul also became one of them, and thus it fell into ruin.

"The Netherworld Domain".

"Able to summon the undead to serve one's purposes."

"I never expected the domain you awakened to look so strange."

Huang Jianzhong's gaze drifted towards the Yellow Springs Swamp.

On the edge of the Yellow Springs Swamp, several strangely shaped trees grow. Their branches are twisted and their leaves are withered and yellow, as if they too have been affected by this dead zone, with their life force being gradually drained away.

Amidst the swaying shadows, the figures of the dead in the swamp are faintly reflected; these are the dolls that Huang Jianzhong has carefully collected.

"You don't understand how much I paid to protect Tianquan City."

"This price made me fully awaken to the realm of the Underworld Swamp."

"To be precise, it was my pet beast that awakened the realm of the Underworld Swamp."

"Unfortunately, my pet beast completely merged with me in order to protect me."

"I want to become one of the Twenty-Eight Constellations, and I also want to see if I can bring a wisp of my pet's soul out of the Yellow Springs Swamp, instead of letting it sink into eternal damnation."

"Besides my advanced age and declining strength, reviving my pet beast has also become my wish."

Huang Jianzhong's ideas are similar to Liu Bo's, but their methods are too extreme.

They are willing to sacrifice others for their pets.

"Holy light shines."

Earlier, Ye Bai had instructed the Sunflower Fairy to create numerous sunflower-like clones to clean up the entire battlefield.

Now that Ye Bai has given his order, this area is as bright as day.

The Sunflower Fairy's actions even alarmed Andors.

"Do those guys really want to destroy the entire blood sacrifice array? They're absolutely despicable."

Andos's body was faintly visible.

His true form had already suffered fatal injuries during the battle with other demon gods.

Andos hesitated, unsure whether to continue guarding Blue Star or return to Hell to recuperate. A blinding light fell, and a large amount of black mist appeared above the Yellow Springs Swamp.

Under the holy light, endless darkness began to emerge from the Swamp of the Dead.

The holy light, symbolizing holiness and hope, became the fuse that ignited the deaths of wailing spirits.

Those souls that were once living beings are now left only with wailing. Under the cleansing of the holy light, they are powerless to struggle and dissipate like dust, turning into ashes and drifting away with the wind.

In the brief moment after their souls dissipated, Ye Bai felt a chill rush into his eyes.

After a long while, Ye Bai finally realized that this was the power of faith.

Every departed soul passes on its lifelong faith to itself.

Ye Bai's eyes are the Eyes of Truth, possessing a trace of the divinity of the God of Truth.

Nourished by faith, this divine quality is gradually growing stronger.

The air was thick with the smell of sulfur and decaying wood, and the black mist under the holy light seemed particularly dense, as if even breathing it in carried a breath of desolation and despair.

The water in the swamp was no longer a lifeless black, but had turned blood red, boiling and churning, making a dull sound, as if telling some unknown secret.

The holy light seemed to become a judge, mercilessly judging everything that did not belong to the light.

In this trial, the Yellow Springs Swamp transformed into a purgatory, burning away all the sins and filth.

"Huang Jianzhong, this is the cage I personally built for you. I don't know if you are satisfied with it."

Ye Bai said to Huang Jianzhong with a smile.

"Satisfied? Of course I'm satisfied. I haven't been out in the sun for so long, I'm feeling a bit out of sorts."

A large amount of holy flames emerged from Huang Jianzhong's body, and these flames were devouring the demonic energy within him.

"However, do you think you can break my Underworld Swamp Domain just like that?"

You're oversimplifying my thinking.

"After all, I'm a veteran pet master, so I naturally have quite a few tricks up my sleeve."

"The person in front of me is not the real me, but just an avatar I created using elements."

Huang Jianzhong said coldly.

His true form had long been hidden, and even Andos, the demon god, couldn't tell the difference between the real and the fake.

However, Ye Bai, who possessed the Eye of Truth, had already discovered that the person in front of him was merely an avatar.

However, Ye Bai did not expose himself. Instead, he guided Huang Jianzhong step by step to reveal his weaknesses.

"Interesting. How did this junior apprentice distinguish between the real and fake him?"

"This guy almost fooled me, I'm a little annoyed."

The Star Sage closed the book and chanted a spell. Countless starlight surged from her body and fell to the ground.

"The earth was annihilated."

The Star Sage uttered only these words, and the entire earth began to shake violently.

The skyscraper was snapped in half.

Tianquan City was left in ruins.

While fighting the Death Raven, the Water Leopard, after a sudden change in circumstances, still managed to arrange for the Water Cannon Rabbit to steal a leg bone from the Death Raven leader.

Taking advantage of the Water Cannon Rabbit's inattention, the Netherworld Hell Wolf suddenly leaped out from the ground, snatched the golden leg bone from the Water Cannon Rabbit's hand, and transformed into countless shadows and disappeared into the shadows just as the Water Cannon Rabbit used its water cannon to shoot it.

The golden leg bone was scorched by hellfire and turned to ashes in the blink of an eye.

As the number of angel skeletons gradually decreased, the blood sacrifice array began to show signs of instability.

There are currently two parts supporting the entire blood sacrifice formation.

Fang Ri Tu, who was fighting fiercely among the rock giants, saw that the hand bones that served as the core of the formation suddenly developed a large number of cracks.

The clicking sound echoed throughout the venue.

Just as Fang Ritu was about to pick up the hand bone from the ground, the Netherworld Hell Wolf appeared.

Fang Ritu's heavy hammer almost struck the Netherworld Hell Wolf.

"It's you! I almost smashed it down with a hammer."

Fang Ritu said with utmost gentleness.

She identified it by the scent of the Netherworld Hell Wolf.

In fact, Fang Ritu is face-blind. Apart from Ye Bai and other senior executives, Fang Ritu cannot recognize anyone else's face.

In her eyes, almost everyone is the same.

With a snap, the Netherworld Hell Wolf shattered the severed hand bone into countless fragments.

At that moment, countless rocks fell from the sky.

In the blink of an eye, they transformed into rock giants.

Huang Jianzhong sensed that something was wrong with the blood sacrifice array and was frantically summoning rock giants.

The pressure is on Huang Jianzhong's side; if the blood sacrifice formation breaks, he will also perish instantly.

At this moment, the Star Sage appeared quietly beside Huang Jianzhong.

"Long time no see, Lao Huang."

The moment Huang Jianzhong saw the Star Sage, his pupils contracted sharply.

"Chu Han, aren't you already dead?"

How could it reappear?

Chu Han is Zhang Dashan's very famous disciple, and he has awakened the talent of the Memory Palace for the second time.

In order to compete with Zhang Dashan for the position of the Twenty-Eight Constellations, Huang Jianzhong even used a special method to release a blood gu to parasitize Zhang Dashan's body.

In order to plunge Zhang Dashan into even deeper despair.

Huang Jianzhong even attacked Chu Han, wanting to kill her and further provoke Zhang Dashan.

Before he could even make a move, news came that Chu Han had died.

Moreover, Zhang Dashan's health deteriorated further.

"You're surprised to see me, aren't you?"

“Huang Jianzhong, there’s a grudge between us that we might need to settle.”

"You don't need to hide anymore. You're only a peak seventh-tier pet master right now, while I'm already an eighth-tier one."

"The distance between you and me is like the sky and the earth."

Chu Han smiled coldly.

Her body erupted with a terrifying aura.

"Aren't you afraid of attracting the attention of the Demon God?"

Huang Jianzhong said with some panic.

"What's there to be afraid of? Demons are just like humans, they have a nose and two eyes too. What do I have to be afraid of?"

"To be honest, Andos's avatar that descended upon Tianquan City wasn't very powerful. I'm quite curious why you were bewitched by Andos and ended up sacrificing the entire Tianquan City?"

The Star Sage sat down on the ground, leaned back, and landed in a nebula.

"Don't tell me you feel old; that's something to fool children."

"A seventh-tier pet master, barring any unforeseen circumstances, can live for another hundred years."

"What made you become the demon god's lackey?"

"The Star Sage asked coldly."

Huang Jianzhong then spat out a mouthful of saliva.

"Hmph, instead of criticizing me, you should say we're the same kind of people."
