Chapter 50

In this vast wilderness, the towering mountains stretched endlessly, the forests were dense, ancient beasts roared, and fierce birds soared through the sky, causing complete chaos!

“Moo...”

A bellow from a wild ox echoed for over a hundred miles, flames shooting into the sky. A giant ox, as red as blood, stood over ten meters tall and thirty meters long, burst out of a cracked mountain, carrying lava and enveloped in fire. It was the Fire Ox Demon, which had once battled the Golden Lion, losing one of its fiery red horns. It had existed for ages, its might shaking the wilderness, and even the elders of the Stone Village had grown up hearing its legends. Its hooves trod on flames, its body bathed in fire, its red fur shining like silk, as it charged into the distance.

Behind it, countless ferocious beasts, densely packed, all of different kinds, avoided the lava and fire, following it out of the vast mountains, charging towards the outside world.

“Ah... No!”

A village with hundreds of households was in terror. So many ferocious beasts were charging towards them, and the leading Fire Ox Demon was far more powerful than their village spirit. How could they resist?

The village spirit, sensing the danger, abandoned the place and fled, not daring to resist, eventually merging into the beast tide, becoming one of them.

This was a tragedy. The Fire Ox Demon charged through, and not even a great tribe's spirit could match it. Nothing could stop its advance. Stone houses and altars were lifted and shattered by its single fiery red horn, crushed under its violent charge.

Dust rose to the sky as it charged towards the distant horizon.

Behind it, the mountains and fields were filled with ferocious beasts, their fangs bared and claws extended, sweeping through the area. The villagers fought to the death, but in the flood of beasts, they were insignificant. The sharp claws and white teeth reaped life after life.

This was a human tragedy. The village was instantly overwhelmed by the beast tide, with no one surviving.

Similar events occurred elsewhere. In a short time, seven or eight villages on the outskirts of the vast mountains were flattened, leaving behind large patches of blood.

Deep in the mountains, the two terrifying beings gave orders, and all the ferocious birds and beasts dared not disobey, surging out of the wilderness to cleanse the land in blood.

In fact, some ferocious birds and beasts were stopped. A small red bird and a being holding an iron staff had halted them, otherwise, it would have been even worse.

In the town of Little Lonely Mountain, a golden-furred lion rushed in, its fur shiny, its body bathed in golden light. It walked upright, standing over twenty meters tall, with a large horn on its forehead, electric sparks flashing, and blood-red eyes. It charged into the town.

“Heaven, it's actually the golden-furred lion!” The townspeople were terrified. This was an ancient beast, and many elders had heard its legends in the wilderness. No one had expected it to come here.

“Quick, run!”

No one dared to resist. This ancient beast was extremely terrifying. As soon as it entered the town, it swung its paw, instantly crushing seven or eight people, their bodies mangled. Then it clawed down, shattering several stone houses, killing a dozen people under the rubble.

The town of Little Lonely Mountain was in chaos, people fleeing in all directions, but they found the town surrounded by ferocious beasts, with no way to escape. The beast tide had engulfed the place.

“Heaven, why do you punish us so?” An old man with white hair roared to the sky.

“Father, save me!” A child cried in terror.

...

The town of Little Lonely Mountain was plunged into panic. The end of the world had come, and everyone was trying to escape, but they found no way out, despairing and roaring in anger.

“Golden-furred old lion, I'll fight you to the death!” The town's strongest warrior, a robust middle-aged man, wielded a broadsword taller than a person, his hair and beard bristling, his body glowing, charging at the beast king.

“Puff!”

Unfortunately, he was far from the ancient beast's match. With just one claw, it tore him and his sword into two pieces, blood spraying high.

“Boom”

In the center of the town, a low stone hill shook violently, a massive stone block bursting out, radiating a soft glow, covered in runes, charging forward.

“Clang!”

The golden-furred lion swung its sharp claw, striking the stone block, sparks flying as it rolled away.

“Roar...”

The beast tide engulfed the town of Little Lonely Mountain, a group of ferocious beasts rushing forward, tearing and biting at the rune-covered stone block, metal clanging, stone chips flying. The stone block glowed, emitting a powerful force, smashing through the beasts, reducing them to flesh and blood.

The golden-furred lion roared, the entire town trembling. A beam of light shot from its horn, a bolt of lightning striking the stone block, causing it to crack.

“Do you not fear punishment for your bloodshed? I am the descendant of the mountain spirit!” The stone block glowed, emitting a divine thought.

“Speak to the beings in the mountains!” The golden-furred lion responded with a divine thought, opening its blood-red mouth, spewing a more brilliant bolt of lightning, then pouncing.

“Crack”

The town's spirit, despite its fierce resistance, was shattered by the golden-furred lion, blood splattering, and swallowed by the ferocious beast.

Shortly after, the town of Little Lonely Mountain became a ruin, walls and buildings in ruins, bloodstains everywhere, everyone dead, their bodies consumed by the beasts.

The mountains and fields were filled with ferocious beasts, the scene outside the wilderness like the end of the world. Led by powerful ancient beasts, the beast tide cleansed the land in blood, charging towards the horizon.

In the Stone Village, the willow tree stood silently, a tender branch emitting a soft glow, enveloping the entire village. The beast tide surged, but it avoided this place.

Perhaps this was the only place spared.

“The land is drenched in blood, countless tribes will be destroyed. I fear the nearby villages will not survive,” an elder sighed, his face filled with sorrow. Living and struggling in the wilderness, seeing such a great disaster, he could not help but feel sad and sympathetic.

He did not know that the disaster was far worse than he imagined, not just around the mountains, but spreading across the vast land!

That day, blood splattered across the land, countless tribes were destroyed, ferocious birds and beasts rampaged, and ancient beasts emerged, sweeping through all inhabited areas, causing a great calamity.

In the vast mountains, chaotic energy spread, divine light occasionally shooting up, four supreme beings engaged in a great battle, vying for a holy artifact.

Divine flames collapsed half the sky, giant birds swept through the heavens, ferocious beasts tore the sky, and iron staffs pierced the clouds, the battle growing more intense!

The crystal-white holy artifact changed hands several times, each of the four beings obtaining it, but none could truly possess it, the battle continuing.

Dozens of ancient bones could not protect the mountains. The four supreme beings' battle caused boulders to rain from the sky, mountains to collapse, and the land to be devastated.

They fought and moved, heading towards the distance, the battlefield growing vast, affecting a wider area, the vast mountains barely containing them.

In the Stone Village, the scorched willow tree trembled, the tender branch glowing brightly, a green light so vibrant it made one's heart tremble. Brilliant light enveloped the entire village.

“What's happening?” Little One, playing with three young birds under the tree, looked up, his face filled with surprise.

All the villagers trembled, feeling as if they were facing a deity. The ancestral medicine cauldron glowed, resonating, the ancient patterns on its walls becoming clearer.

With a “hum,” the willow tree's green light shot into the sky, divine chains intertwining, blinding the eyes, then enveloping the Stone Village, suddenly disappearing from the world, leaving nothing behind.

It was scorched black, having suffered a devastating blow. In the great calamity, it could only protect itself, unable to fight against those terrifying beings.

“Hmm?”

Far away in the mountains, a thick mist covered the area, a pair of emerald eyes as large as lakes gazed this way, extremely sensitive, sensing something, and emitting a deep voice, “It has escaped...”

“At this rate, it will take days to cleanse the land, too slow.” The ferocious bird, like a dark cloud, flew across the sky, its blood-red eyes radiating overwhelming ferocity.

“I hate humans, their reproductive rate is astonishing. We must act ourselves, end it quickly!” The ferocious beast growled, its emerald eyes filled with killing intent, shooting two lightning bolts as thick as mountains at the location of the Stone Village.

“Boom”

The mountains collapsed, the earth cracked, dust shot into the sky, and a deep pit appeared where the Stone Village once stood, like a vast abyss, dark and bottomless.

“Hmm, it was the site of a deity's fall, no wonder it rooted here. Unfortunately, it got away!” The emerald-eyed being roared, its killing intent overwhelming.

The crystal-white holy artifact floated, emitting a radiant light, the four beings continuing their battle, their divine techniques clashing, destroying the vast mountains, leaving broken mountains everywhere. Their battle spread for thousands of miles, entering the vast land.

“Do you not fear retribution for your bloodshed?”

“Who can defeat me?!” The terrifying being with emerald eyes roared, its voice shaking the clouds apart.

The ferocious bird, spreading its wings, covered the sky, its body larger than a dark cloud, caught the crystal-white holy artifact, flying thousands of miles away.

The other three beings pursued relentlessly, launching fierce attacks.

“I hate humans, I'll show you a bloodbath!” The ferocious bird screamed, spreading its wings, instantly crossing the vast land, mountains and rivers rushing past.

Soon, it arrived at a royal territory, belonging to the Lei Clan, with a population of tens of millions. It dropped the holy artifact and began its bloodbath.

“Roar...”

Though it was a ferocious bird, it roared like a beast, opening its beak, a terrifying dark light covering the entire royal territory.

The Lei Clan's territory was vast, with numerous cities and a large population, but today it faced a great disaster!

Like a mountain flood, like a sea hitting the sky, the royal territory was covered in dark light, all the people rising into the air, flying into the bird's open mouth.

This was a terrifying scene, like the end of the world, impossible to stop. The tens of millions of people, once covered in dark light, were doomed.

Struggling in the dark light caused them to explode into blood mist!

“It's a Sky Swallowing Sparrow, a legendary Sky Swallowing Sparrow!”

“Heaven, what great sin have we committed to deserve such punishment from a legendary demon bird!?”

...

Cries of despair echoed through the Lei Clan, everyone in shock, powerless to resist.

Struggling was futile; no one could save them. The dark light covered the sky, enveloping the area, watching them be swallowed by the bird's mouth.

This was a terrifying sight, a massive ferocious sparrow hovering in the sky, its body shrouded in dark mist, covering the entire sky, its eyes as large as blood moons, opening its mouth to swallow tens of millions of people.

“Puff,” “Puff”...

Once inside, they exploded into blood mist, swallowed into its belly.

“So much blood, I'm just a little full.” Nourished by the massive amount of blood, the Sky Swallowing Sparrow became energetic, its fatigue gone.
