My equipment is designed for cultivation; I started by slaughtering my way through a small world.

the other side.

The tens of thousands of demonic beasts besieging Chicheng, led by two Foundation Establishment demonic beasts, all stopped hunting humans and looked up at the giant face descending from the sky.

The crimson moonlight that once illuminated the demons and beasts has vanished.

The entire sky suddenly turned pitch black.

"Roar roar roar..."

The terrifying, massive sand face suddenly swallowed Chicheng, as if the sky had collapsed.

All the monsters were roaring in panic.

"Waaaaah..."

"Moo—"

"..."

Various monsters that were not yet able to speak human language howled in unison.

Although these monsters didn't know what the giant sand face in the sky was or why it was there, they understood that if the giant sand face continued to devour them, they would definitely suffer if they stayed any longer.

As a result, all the monsters fled in all directions, hoping to survive as long as they left the area covered by the giant face.

It's a pity!

They couldn't escape Chicheng at all.

As the giant sandstorm enveloped Chicheng, and as countless demons fled, a deep rumbling sound came from beneath Chicheng.

next moment.

Suddenly, the entire Chicheng plummeted downwards.

Not only did the sky collapse, but the earth also caved in.

When this combination of attacks landed, only two Foundation Establishment stage demonic beasts were able to stand in the air; all the other demonic beasts, including the surviving human cultivators, fell into the ground.

"roar……"

The auras of the two Foundation Establishment stage demonic beasts erupted wildly as they fought against the descending sandstorm.

It's not that they don't want to run, but that they are all locked in place by an invisible force, leaving them no way to escape.

The area around Chicheng was filled with a strange gravitational field, which greatly reduced the movement speed of the two Foundation Establishment Realm demonic beasts, and made it several times more difficult for them to move even half a step than before.

The raging sandstorm descended from the sky, carrying countless grains of sand as it hurtled down, seemingly intent on burying them alive.

The yellow sand pressed them down, causing them to fall continuously.

"Stop right there!!"

The eyes of the two Foundation Establishment stage demon beasts were bloodshot, and their demon blood essence burned.

Their demonic bodies grew even larger, surging to over thirty meters tall, comparable in height to a ten-story building.

The two Foundation Establishment level demonic beasts resembled mountain-carrying bishi (a type of ancient Chinese tortoise shell).

however.

The yellow sand falling from the sky seemed endless, condensing into a yellowish-brown sand dune above the heads of the two Foundation Establishment demon beasts, pressing down solidly.

Rumble...

The two Foundation Establishment stage demonic beasts, soaring through the air, unleashed their demonic power in mid-air, their eyes filled with rage, resentment, and a touch of madness.

As the sand dunes pressed down, the sand dunes above the heads of the two Foundation Establishment Realm demonic beasts grew larger and larger.

Bang bang bang.

The two Foundation Establishment stage demonic beasts watched helplessly as the sand dunes descended, and they could only slide down step by step from mid-air.

Even the air beneath their feet was blasted into shockwaves by their footsteps.

But it was all in vain.

Compared to the two Foundation Establishment Realm demonic beasts, the Qi Refining Realm demonic beasts that had already fallen into the ground fared even worse. Under the suppression of the yellow sand, the Qi Refining Realm demonic beasts were crushed flat by the yellow sand with its strange gravity, turning into minced meat and pulp.

Blood and flesh stained the yellow sand red, and even the demonic soul could not find release.

Inside the collapsed Chicheng, countless dark red sand grains resembled embers of burning charcoal.

When these demonic souls that had slaughtered countless humans were exposed, the dark red sand grains, like sparks flying onto oil, instantly ignited into streaks of dark red flames.

The karma on these demonic souls is the fuel for these dark red flames.

In just a few breaths.

All the demonic beasts at the Qi Refining Realm were suppressed and killed, and their demonic souls were all transformed into fuel to ignite the karmic fire.

It uses the souls of tens of thousands of Qi Refining Realm demon beasts as fuel.

Dark red flames shot into the sky, as if the gates of hell had been opened on the ground.

"roar--"

"What kind of flame is this?"

"Humans deserve to die, they should be exterminated..."

In an instant.

The two monstrous beasts, each over thirty meters long, were instantly engulfed by the sea of ​​fire.

They rolled around frantically, their claws striking the flames on their bodies, leaving bloody scratches, but to no avail.

The karmic fire, like a carbuncle clinging to the bone, burrows into the flesh and spreads along with the demonic power.

The skin of the two Foundation Establishment stage demonic beasts cracked inch by inch, and dark red flames spewed out from the cracks.

The flesh and blood sizzled as they burned, turning into ashes and scattering to reveal the stark white bones. Soon, the bones were also stained crimson and turned to ash inch by inch.

The souls of tens of thousands of Qi Refining Realm demon beasts were used as fuel, and the hellfire they ignited was extremely terrifying.

It is even more terrifying than the karmic fire cultivated with the earth's fire energy.

The two demonic beasts were in mid-air, their karmic fire surging forth from their seven orifices and the gaps in their scales, burning them from the inside out into three enormous torches.

After a while.

The three Foundation Establishment stage demon souls were trapped in the torch of flesh, their souls scorched by karmic fire. With each scream, their strength waned until their bodies collapsed into ashes and their remnants of souls were burned away.

……

In the large crater where Chicheng collapsed.

Many surviving human cultivators were enveloped in dark red flames, yet they suffered no harm whatsoever.

The dark red flames acted like a semi-transparent layer of particles, isolating them from the outside world and creating a barrier around them.

The human cultivators could see tens of thousands of demonic beasts being suppressed and killed by the yellow sand, their demonic souls being ignited by karmic fire.

He witnessed two Foundation Establishment Realm demonic beasts perish in despair.

hum.

The sky suddenly trembled.

Countless grains of yellow sand rapidly coalesced in the sky, forming a ladder that stretched step by step from the overwhelming sandstorm above the heavens to the ground.

A cultivator with a dark red gourd hanging from his waist descended slowly.

"It's Gu Qing!!"

"It's him! Wasn't he only at the fifth level of the Qi Refining Realm before the second trial began?"

"This, this..."

Upon seeing this, Jia Meiqian and Luo Zheng stared intently at the figure in mid-air, their bodies trembling.

His cultivation aura was so terrifying, and the quality of his spiritual power was comparable to that of a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Is this really a Qi Refining Realm cultivator?

Even a Foundation Establishment cultivator couldn't do that, right?

The mercenaries who descended from the immortal kingdom all thought this way, as it was beyond their existing understanding.

The surviving indigenous cultivators of Chicheng stared intently at the figure in the sky, their eyes shining brightly.

This must be a Foundation Establishment cultivator at the city lord level!!

There is hope for the reconstruction of Chicheng.

"City Lord!"

"No, with such strength, it's probably more than just the level of a city lord."

"I read in ancient books that before the great calamity of the 'fallen demons from the heavens,' the emperor was above the city lord."

"His strength is enough to make him an emperor."

"He is the emperor."

"He is the emperor of the desert, he is the master of the yellow sand."

"Greetings, Emperor of the Desert!!"

The title of "Desert Emperor" had already appeared and quickly spread among the survivors.

The surviving indigenous Qi Refining Realm cultivators knelt down in the old site of Chicheng, kowtowing repeatedly to welcome Gu Qing down from the clouds.

"The Emperor of the Desert"

The mercenaries from the Immortal Kingdom worshipped Gu Qing as if he were a god when they saw these native Qi Refining Realm cultivators.

The eyes of Jia Meiqian, Luo Zheng, and the other mercenaries from the Immortal Kingdom were extremely complex.

"Why are you all kneeling down to welcome His Majesty the Emperor?"

"you……"
