Chapter 259 Tyrannical Bull Nether God

"What are you yelling about... how did this chain end up in your hands!"

At first, Asura Ghost didn't understand what Four-Eyed Ghost was shouting about. It wasn't until he also noticed the Soul Suppressing Chain that he realized the gravity of the situation.

The two were instantly terrified and bolted, wanting to escape.

Unfortunately, they were yanked back by Mu Qingqing's Sixteen Star Moon Chain.

Four-Eyed Ghost and Asura Ghost put on mournful faces, wailing, "Alas, little ancestor, just let us run! If we don't run now, we'll never have the chance!"

"Why run? Is there something wrong with this chain?" Mu Qingqing asked,

looking at the two terrified underworld gods with a perplexed expression.

Four-Eyed Ghost was so anxious he was sweating profusely. "Do you know what incredibly dangerous thing you've just done?"

"Lord Yuan Qing had a reason for creating the Demonic Yuan Realm here. It's because an Emperor-level Underworld God demonic beast was sealed here, and this Soul Suppressing Chain was used to suppress it!"

"Now that the Soul Suppressing Chain is gone, that Underworld God demonic beast will soon break free from its seal!"

As soon as the two underworld gods finished speaking, a deafening roar thundered through the heavens.

A giant, black-haired claw, the size of a city wall, erupted from the center of the Stone Forest Valley. Countless dust particles were kicked up, surging outwards like a wave of sand and stone.

Mu Qingqing and the other two immediately felt an intense, overwhelming sense of danger that made their souls tremble.

Such terrifying pressure was something she had only felt when facing Old Ancestor Xin, Xin Bailing.

It seemed the Stone Forest Valley truly did seal an Emperor-level demonic beast.

"Run! Ba Niu has already broken free ahead of time, and we are powerless to control it now!"

"Not only that, but now that it's just broken free, it will undoubtedly need to devour living beings to regain its former strength!"

"If we don't leave now, we'll be devoured by it!"

Four-Eyed Ghost and Asura Ghost, the two underworld gods, shouted in terror and unease.

However, as soon as they finished speaking, strange black demonic energy converged in the center of the Stone Forest Valley.

Then, their bodies, as if beyond their control, began to float upwards.

"Help!"

Four-Eyed Ghost and Asura Ghost's faces turned pale with fear, and they struggled and cried out in mid-air.

But in the face of the Emperor-level demonic beast's power, their struggles were futile.

As for Mo Qian and Luo Ning Shuang, under Mu Qingqing's protective power, they did not float into the air like the two underworld gods.

Mu Qingqing frowned, looking at the giant black claw in the center of the Stone Forest Valley.

Although she didn't know what it was, the threat of this power was too great.

Ba Niu had not yet fully revealed its entire form, but the strange black energy had already covered thousands of miles around.

It then formed a curtain of darkness that blocked everything, preventing Mu Qingqing and the other two from escaping.

As for Four-Eyed Ghost and Asura Ghost, the two underworld gods, when they floated above the Stone Forest Valley.

A gaping, bloody maw instantly emerged from the ground, directly swallowing the two underworld gods.

This Underworld God demonic beast, named Ba Niu, finally appeared in its entirety

in the sight of the three.

Its body was a thousand feet tall, with a ferocious and bizarre appearance. Its massive demonic ox horns emitted a dark luster, and its sharp fangs were incredibly keen.

Fiery red scales covered its chest and back, and sharp bone spurs protruded from its shoulders. From a distance, it looked as if it were wearing a bloody thorny battle armor.

Such a colossal Underworld God demonic beast moved like a moving mountain.

Devouring two underworld gods of the One-Star Saint Emperor level had only restored a sliver of Ba Niu's strength. It was still vastly different from its state tens of thousands of years ago.

This was also due to the seal in the Stone Forest Valley.

Tens of thousands of years had caused its power to continuously drain, causing it to fall from the Four-Star Great Emperor level to the One-Star Great Emperor level.

It was now desperate to devour other living beings to replenish its lost power, and thus Ba Niu set its sights on Mu Qingqing.

Among the surrounding humans, Mu Qingqing had the highest true essence realm and the most refined energy.

Therefore, Ba Niu moved its mountain-like colossal body and charged directly towards the cliff where Mu Qingqing was located.

Due to its immense size, everything in its path, whether mountains or valleys, was flattened and crushed.

Seeing no escape, Mo Qian drew his Mo Ye Sword, ready to engage, and Luo Ning Shuang took out her Thousand Brocade Phoenix Feather Fan to resist.

However, Mu Qingqing reached out and stopped them, saying, "I will lure this Underworld God demonic beast away. You two seize this opportunity to quickly awaken the tens of thousands of cultivators at the foot of the mountain and lead them away!"

Mo Qian and Luo Ning Shuang did not hesitate and, following Mu Qingqing's instructions, quickly headed towards the foot of the mountain.

Mu Qingqing, in turn, unleashed her full power without reservation.

She retracted the Sixteen Star Moon Chain into her Sumeru Ring and decided it was time to test the power of the Soul Suppressing Chain.

As Mu Qingqing's thoughts moved, the Soul Suppressing Chain transformed into thousands upon thousands of deep blue chains, descending like a vast deep blue net that blotted out the sky.

It tightly bound Ba Niu's body.

Bound by the Soul Suppressing Chain, Ba Niu became incredibly enraged, letting out a deafening roar.

"Roar!"

The shockwaves from this terrifying roar swept outwards for thousands of miles like a tide.

Mo Qian, Luo Ning Shuang, and the other cultivators were all affected, their bodies suffering internal injuries and spitting up fresh blood.

Ba Niu was indeed so powerful that they were injured even from such a distance.

A look of worry appeared on Mo Qian and Luo Ning Shuang's faces.

They wondered if Mu Qingqing could hold on.

Although Ba Niu's destructive power was immense, it still could not break free from the Soul Suppressing Chain's restraint.

No wonder this Soul Suppressing Chain could suppress Ba Niu for tens of thousands of years.

However, the Soul Suppressing Chain was a Saint Dao-level Holy Artifact. Mu Qingqing, at her peak Saint Emperor realm, couldn't sustain the expenditure of true essence. She needed to find another way to deal with it.

This Underworld God demonic beast named Ba Niu was even more powerful than the Fierce Demon Tuo encountered in Mingguang City.

Back then, Fierce Demon Tuo had only managed to reach the early Great Emperor level by absorbing the power of other demonic beasts.

But Ba Niu was a genuine Great Emperor-level demonic beast!

Even though its strength had fallen significantly, it still possessed the level of a peak One-Star Great Emperor.

Mu Qingqing would need to employ many strategies to deal with it.

Taking advantage of Ba Niu being restrained by the Soul Suppressing Chain, Mu Qingqing flew into the air.

She unleashed a Void Condensing Sword Art.

Tens of thousands of golden sword blades materialized around Ba Niu from all directions, stabbing towards it in unison.

But the hardness of Ba Niu's scarlet scales was beyond Mu Qingqing's imagination.

Even though she had used the advanced True Meaning, Void Condensing Sword Art, she couldn't inflict the slightest damage on its body.

Instead, the materialized golden sword blades shattered the moment they touched Ba Niu's body, disintegrating into countless light points and vanishing.

It was as if she were merely tickling Ba Niu.

Ba Niu continued to roar and struggle, and the power covering the Soul Suppressing Chain grew weaker and weaker.

Soon, it would break free from the Soul Suppressing Chain's control.
