What do you mean by my awakened profession being Monster Hunter?

"A bunch of beasts, how dare you act so arrogantly towards me! You're asking for death!"

Qi Shi'an snorted coldly, and with a flick of his wrist, the Samadhi True Fire of the entire sea area instantly reversed and was completely absorbed into the lamp.

The Samadhi Lamp hung quietly in his palm, its flame burning steadily as if the attack that had just scorched the sea was nothing more than a gentle breath from it.

The gray-clad youth exhaled, feeling reborn, and looked at the magical artifact in Qi Shi'an's hand with a look of apprehension.

"What kind of magical artifact is this?" the gray-robed youth asked.

Qi Shi'an glanced at him and said coldly, "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask."

The gray-clad youth's expression changed drastically. At this moment, he felt as if he had been locked onto by a prehistoric beast, and he dared not utter a word.

The two continued their journey, encountering several attacks from the Black Abyss Shark along the way, but Qi Shi'an easily thwarted them all.

Two days later, they finally saw several mountains.

We've arrived at the place of our heritage!

Chapter 129 Holy Mountain

Ahead, nine majestic mountains stand tall, auspicious clouds rise, and rosy light fills the sky.

This area is no longer a no-fly zone; free flight is permitted.

In the sky, a vast divine power surged, manifesting a magnificent scene above the nine mountains.

A mystical ancient tree reached for the sky, its roots firmly planted in the heavens. Its entire body was emerald green, surrounded by a seven-colored halo, supporting the sun, moon, and stars. There was also a magnificent palace, appearing and disappearing, radiating an immortal brilliance, as if it had existed for eternity.

This is the land of heritage!

"Ok?"

At the foot of the sacred mountain, the ancient holy son glanced at the people coming from the sea and found that they were just two ordinary people. He was puzzled as to how they had crossed that dangerous sea.

The ten-time champion and Shi Yi were not surprised to see who had arrived.

"It's quite unexpected that you would actually have such a kind heart, bringing a burden like this all the way here." Shi Yi transmitted his thoughts, his tone rather sarcastic.

"Hey, that's a stereotype."

Qi Shi'an remained calm and joked, "Besides, having a burden is better than being alone. If we encounter a giant beast, we can have someone to help the beast grind its teeth, so we won't be alone. Isn't that great?"

Shi Yi remained indifferent and ignored him.

Qi Shi'an looked around and silently walked towards the gathering place of the independent cultivators.

All the major sects present have arrived, and the heroes have fought their way here together, with many people bleeding profusely.

Wounded in the battle at sea, the various sects occupied their respective territories, their eyes gleaming as they looked up at the vast, towering mountains.

A flock of golden-feathered thunder rocs soared into the sky, their bodies covered in golden divine feathers, with innate thunder runes engraved on their feathers, like a dozen divine rays tempered by the divine thunder of the nine heavens.

They come from the same race and are native inhabitants of the secret realm.

The leader was a Thunder Roc of the Divine Fire Realm, with blue divine lightning crackling around its body. It led its clan across the sky and rushed towards the ancient land. With a gentle flap of its wings, it tore through the void, leaving behind streaks of charred spatial cracks.

"Roar!"

A black divine ape roared. It was a deity, tens of meters tall, with black flames raging all over its body. It leaped up from the ground and pounced into the air.

Immediately, three golden-feathered thunder rocs were incinerated by the black flames spewed out by the divine ape, quickly turning into ashes that scattered between heaven and earth.

The Golden-Feathered Thunder Roc, leading the charge, had a cold gaze and spread its wings to strike, sparking a fierce battle between the two.

Feathers flew through the air, and blood splattered everywhere.

The divine ape's body was as hard as divine metal. When struck by the lightning of the Golden-feathered Thunder Roc, it made a rumbling sound and its blood and qi surged within its body. When struck by the sharp roc claws and beak, it only caused sparks to fly but remained unharmed.

The battle between the gods was extremely fierce, and the outcome was quickly decided. The Golden-Feathered Thunder Roc was severely injured, half of its body was burned, and the aroma of its flesh filled the air as it fled into the distance, while all of its offspring were wiped out.

The divine ape was also struck by lightning, its body going numb, but it managed to withstand the attack thanks to its powerful physique. The black flames that erupted from it then transformed into black symbols that spread outwards, turning any living creature that touched them into ashes.

"Hey!"

Not far away, a purple spider erupted, spewing out a purple poisonous mist that quickly spread throughout the area.

Many cultivators didn't have time to react before they were instantly corroded by the poisonous mist, their flesh and blood dissolving into a pool of black liquid.

Jun Dao snorted coldly, his whole body glowing. He stretched out a palm, and snow-white runes appeared. Snowflakes fell everywhere, and the palm wind, carrying endless snowflakes, struck the purple spider. The runes intertwined between the two, and the cold air was chilling.

At this moment, endless cold air spread rapidly, merging with the divine power of Jun Dao, freezing all the poisonous mist, as if even time itself was frozen and stopped.

"You're courting death!" A thousand feet away, the ancient saint also encountered an enemy.

This was a giant bear, entirely black and gold, that had transformed into a human form, but its head remained that of a bear. It stood tens of feet tall, possessed immense strength, and swung its spiked club downwards, causing the void to tremble.

The black bear spirit was surrounded by faint divine flames, and it was about to ignite the divine fire. The huge spiked club in its hand was very ancient, forged from the bones of black bears that had died in the tribe, and it burst forth with astonishing divine power.

This is a racial talent; it can easily smash a giant mountain and trample a plain.

The ancient saint remained unfazed. With a light tap of his fingertip, three divine pearls shot into the sky, transforming into three ancient divine mountains that stretched across the heavens and earth, carrying the power to suppress all ages, and crashed down fiercely towards the black bear demon.

These are the temple's most treasured artifacts, the 108 guardian pearls that protect the realm.

It is made from 108 sacred beast bones, infused with the essence and principles of the sages of the temple throughout the ages. Each divine bead is engraved with the text of the "Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Scripture". They can form an array on their own or be combined to suppress all enemies.

The ancient saint dealt with the black bear spirit who was about to become a god without holding back, directly unleashing the sect's most treasured artifact, because he did not want to waste any time.

"puff!"

The ancient divine mountain crashed down, and a spurt of blood gushed out, crushing the black bear spirit's body into a pulp.

"what……"

A scream came from ten zhang away; a powerful first-generation cultivator had been killed.

His opponent was a black serpent, thousands of meters long, with dark green vertical pupils and scales that shimmered with a dark gold luster, exuding a cold, icy light.

This serpent is a god-level being, powerful and awe-inspiring.

"puff!"

Blood splattered, and screams filled the air.

Fast, ruthless, and accurate, it was cold and merciless. Its snake tail was heavier than a divine hammer, breaking nearly 80% of the bones of the first generation and almost turning him into a bloody mess.

The first generation struggled in agony, wailing in agony. Not only him, but even the onlookers felt a chill and empathized with his pain, as if they too had been swept by the snake's tail, their internal organs displaced, and experiencing waves of excruciating pain.

Snapped!

With a sweep of its tail, the first generation's entire skeleton and internal organs were shattered, his body exploded in the void, and he died a violent death.

That's how cruel the battlefield is; even a young supreme being of a clan could perish if they entered.

This is just a condensed corner of the battlefield in front of a sacred mountain.

Nine sacred mountains are located here, shrouded in auspicious mist and radiant light, and covered with various ancient medicinal herbs.

On another battlefield, at the foot of a sacred mountain, Shangguan Qingfeng, wounded, sat down cross-legged and used a secret technique to heal himself.

On the other side, the young master of the Fuxi clan was also covered in blood and had suffered a severe injury.

This was a chaotic, brutal, and terrifying war, during which people constantly perished, even powerful figures at the Divine Fire Realm met with misfortune and died tragically.

On Qi Shi'an's side, the situation was equally perilous, with various magical artifacts flying in the sky, and the clash of treasures and divine whips creating a dazzling display of golden light.

He's in trouble; a god is attacking him—an exceptionally powerful pure-blooded ferocious beast called Huodou!

It resembles a dog, with two horns on its forehead and its entire body covered in dark scales, each one like a quenched divine iron needle with flowing fire patterns. A gentle shake will cause sparks to fall. This is a fire-path calamity beast.

Qi Shi'an unleashed his Vajra Pestle to counterattack, releasing endless demonic flames that swept forward.

This is a battle of fire against fire!

However, unlike Qi Shi'an, who looked relaxed, Huo Dou was serious. It realized that this person was also quite proficient in the art of fire, not inferior to itself at all.

"Roar!"

A deep roar rang out, and Huodou opened its wide mouth and inhaled sharply.

In an instant, the world changed color, and a black hole of annihilation formed in Huodou's mouth, with terrifying devouring power sweeping across the sky.

The demonic flames, powerful enough to scorch the heavens and boil the seas, were swallowed whole by Huodou, like a hundred rivers flowing into the ocean, without a single trace leaking out.

This is Huodou's inherited treasure technique, Ten Thousand Fires Return to Nothingness!

Qi Shi'an frowned slightly. His demonic flames had been swallowed whole. This Huo Dou truly lived up to its title as the Fire Dao Monarch.

Legend has it that the Huodou clan are innate fire spirits, born alongside calamities, feeding on fire, and their innate supernatural power is said to be able to "devour all the fires of the heavens and burn away the eternal universe".

"Then let's try this one."

Qi Shi'an took out an ancient bronze lamp, shook it gently, and a burst of Samadhi True Fire burst forth, transforming into a divine light that surged forward.

He refused to believe that a Divine Fire Realm Calamity could truly devour all fire.

The Samadhi Lamp is an ancient magical artifact, and the Samadhi True Fire it contains is something even the sect leader fears.

Huo Dou's eyes were sharp, he neither flinched nor avoided it, and he raised his head and let out a roar that shook the heavens and the earth.

Boom!

The earth cracked open, and endless flames shot into the sky, carrying the laws of calamity. Like a tsunami, the raging waves of fire crashed against the Samadhi True Fire.

In an instant, the entire world seemed to freeze, followed by a cataclysmic explosion.

"Hmph! You've got some skill."

Qi Shi'an snorted coldly, then leaped up like a black lightning bolt, instantly killing Huo Dou in front of him.

His whole body glowed, and divine runes condensed into two true Hou ferocious heads attached to his fists, occasionally flowing with some blood light. This was the fierce and domineering True Hou Fist.

With a single punch, heaven and earth trembled, and the True Hou roared at the divine moon!

Seeing this, Huodou neither dodged nor avoided, but raised its right claw and slashed out with a savage force that could crush everything.

The True Hou versus the Calamity Fighter: a clash between top-tier magical techniques!

In an instant, the world lost its color, the earth shook, and a deafening roar filled the air, as if demons were howling and gods were weeping. Crimson flames intertwined, and endless blood light bloomed, creating a horrifying spectacle.

"Pfft!"

However, Qi Shi'an's punch was too fast. The second punch followed immediately, the fist's energy intertwined with divine runes, transforming into a divine beast that directly struck Huo Dou's body, sending him flying.

Then, the third punch, the fourth punch... several punches were thrown in succession, smashing Huodou's body into pieces.

The next moment, Qi Shi'an threw another punch, a divine fist as powerful as a prison, surging with blood energy, startling all living beings beneath this sacred mountain.

"Roar!"

The pure-blooded ferocious beast Huodou let out a single, unwilling roar before its head was devoured by a phantom of a true Hou, splattering blood high into the air.

"not bad."

Qi Shi'an stepped forward and collected Huo Dou's corpse. Huo Dou's inherited treasure bones had not been destroyed, and this pure-blooded ferocious beast of the Divine Fire Realm was also a delicacy and a great medicine. This time, the harvest was very great.

Shi Yi asked in confusion, "Why are your runes so powerful?"

He had just activated his double pupils and discovered that Qi Shi'an's runes were somewhat different, containing infinite Dao principles, as if they were a vessel for the Dao itself.

Qi Shi'an didn't hide anything and explained, "It was produced by a breakthrough in the Inscription Realm, reaching the ultimate sublimation."

Shi Yi was greatly shocked. He had heard back in the lower realm that Qi Shi'an and Shi Hao had surpassed the ancient and modern sages in the Cave Heaven Realm.

Now, this person has made a major breakthrough in the Inscription Realm. What level will his strength reach this time?

"I have to go."

Qi Shi'an began climbing the mountain. When he passed by some creatures, the others kept their distance and dared not approach.

They realized that this person was no pushover; even a pure-blooded ferocious beast at the Divine Fire Realm was no match for him.

They speculated that this person must be a hidden first generation of some sect, otherwise he wouldn't be so powerful.

Soon, Qi Shi'an ascended the sacred mountain and arrived at the cloud-shrouded summit, where a magnificent palace stood.

The same was true for the other eight sacred mountains, where powerful beings began to climb them one after another.

Every sacred mountain has a palace, magnificent and majestic, solemn and sacred, all of which are places of inheritance!

Chapter 130 Revealing Identity

Qi Shi'an entered the hall, and suddenly the divine sound of the Great Dao resounded, making people's bodies tremble and their souls resonate with it.

The temple is covered with runes and insights, which are the cultivation experience and insights of the Eastern Celestial Venerable. There are no specific methods, only some of his understandings in the process of cultivation, which makes them all the more precious!

"This is a selection of disciples and individuals. Whoever resonates more with these insights will be sent to the highest hall," Shi Yi revealed the secret he had learned.
