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

"Rumble..."

With a deafening roar, the colossal hand descended, striking the runic waves, divine fire, and Dao bell with earth-shattering force. The entire Thousand Hands City trembled violently, and even the void itself rumbled incessantly.

Qi Shi'an, wielding the demonic halberd, unleashed a powerful halberd beam that instantly transformed into countless demonic lights, attacking the crowd.

With a "crack," the runic waves and divine fire were extinguished, the Dao Bell shattered, and everyone's face turned deathly pale, spitting out blood.

Thousands of demonic lights pierced through everyone's bodies, blood splattered, and more than a dozen Venerables were severely injured, their souls being corroded by a mysterious black aura.

The battle ended quickly; the entire city was destroyed, reduced to ruins, and the earth was stained red with blood.

A chill ran through everyone; even the Venerable One was defeated.

If it continues to grow like this, perhaps only the most outstanding geniuses of the upper realm can keep it in check.

Qi Shi'an smiled calmly and said, "Ah, I only wanted to rob you. If you had just obediently handed over the precious blood and spiritual medicine, it wouldn't have come to this."

His voice wasn't loud, but it was deafening. Countless survivors were filled with fear; this young man had become a force to be reckoned with, and no one could stop him.

When everyone saw him raise his hand again, as if he wanted to strike again and completely destroy the place, they dared not gamble that this little devil would not massacre the city, so they quickly spoke up.

"Have mercy, we'll surrender!"

"We have been defeated. We are willing to offer our precious blood and elixirs, just to spare our lives."

Faced with the powerful Little Demon King, the heroes chose to bow their heads. If they continued fighting, they feared that the Little Demon King would truly slaughter their city.

The other venerable ones and kings remained silent, quietly offering their precious blood and elixirs in exchange for a chance to survive.

"If only I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have done it in the first place. If I had offered the treasure earlier, I wouldn't have committed such a heinous crime."

Qi Shi'an said with a grin, showing no sign of remorse whatsoever.

They wanted to seize the treasure, and Qi Shi'an naturally wanted to use this as a pretext to plunder resources on a large scale.

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent and left on their own. Not only did they fail to obtain the precious technique in this battle, but they also had all their treasures looted.

Of course, they weren't the worst off, since they still had a chance to survive. The real tragedy lay with the powerful figures who perished along with Thousand Hands City.

In this battle, dozens of King-level warriors were killed or wounded, countless others in the Inscription Realm were killed or wounded, and the majority of the weaker warriors survived.

After all, they were not Qi Shi'an's primary targets.

He wouldn't easily target the weak; the strong are his targets for plunder, as they possess the most abundant resources.

After looting Thousand Hands City, Qi Shi'an left gracefully and headed towards the Western Sect's sacred mountain in full view of everyone.

In reality, they had already changed their appearance halfway and spent a lot of money to teleport to the cities surrounding the Patching Heaven Sect!

Moreover, he secretly released a spirit body, disguised himself, and went to the Western Sect!

The events here quickly spread throughout the entire Xuan Domain within a few days, with countless forces sending people to Thousand Hands City to "pay their respects."

This ancient city, which had existed for countless years, was reduced to ruins in a single day, a truly lamentable situation.

And the name of that little devil was spread by countless people on this ancient land of Xuanyu, truly making him famous throughout Xuanyu!

Chapter 90 Feint to the East, Attack in the West

The battle shocked the world and shook all sides. At this moment, the Xuan Domain was already in an uproar, with everyone discussing it.

Everyone was speculating about what the little devil's purpose was in suddenly appearing. Was it just because he wanted resources?

"Since the Little Demon King has appeared and is wreaking havoc during the Ten Thousand Buddhas Festival, he must be related to the Western Religion."

"Could it be that the little devil has set his sights on the Western religion?"

"Of course! The direction that little devil left was right towards Mount Ling!"

The news caused a sensation, everyone's heart skipped a beat, and many forces focused their attention on the Western Religion.

At this moment, the high-ranking members of the Western Sect gathered in the main hall of Mount Ling to discuss matters.

"This little beast dares to commit murder during the Ten Thousand Buddhas Festival of our sect. If I catch him, I will surely tear out his soul and make him wish he were dead!" a middle-aged venerable monk shouted.

"It's the third day of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Festival now. If he really wants to come, it will definitely be in the last two days."

"Hmph, Langhuan Island suppressed my sect's Venerable One, and now it has destroyed Thousand Hands City. He must pay the price!"

"Issue the order that anyone who reports news of the Little Demon King will be rewarded with a scripture upon confirmation; in addition, activate the great formation, and all those who enter Mount Ling must undergo testing."

The Western Christians were furious, their anger flaring. When had their sect ever been so humiliated?

Moreover, it happened during the Ten Thousand Buddhas Festival, which was tantamount to declaring war on them.

For a time, the entire territory under the rule of the Western Church was placed under martial law, and the four cities that were known as the Five Great Cities along with Thousand Hands City were each guarded by three or four Venerables of the Western Church.

Meanwhile, Qi Shi'an had already infiltrated a mountain range only a few hundred thousand miles away from the Butian Sect.

He was currently marinating the meat of a ferocious beast with various medicinal herbs, and then grilling it over charcoal.

"Hmm~ o(*￣▽￣*)o, real barbecue is marinated with the best medicinal herbs and then roasted over a low fire."

Qi Shi'an ate with gusto, his mouth greasy and his face full of ecstasy, savoring the delicious taste.

A rosy glow emanated from the pot, releasing an irresistible aroma. A group of ancient remnants nearby were filled with resentment and conflict, eager to approach and beg for a bite; the intense scent was simply too tempting.

However, the thought that this young man had so easily killed a powerful remnant species made them tremble and they retreated from their forward steps.

These past few days, Qi Shi'an has been rushing all the way to the Butian Sect as quickly as possible. The last day is the highlight of Lingshan, and there will be a lot of people there.

At that time, he can take advantage of everyone gathering at Mount Ling to launch a feint attack and plunder the Patching Heaven Sect!

The Patching Heaven Sect, as the branch of the Patching Heaven Dao from the Upper Realm, has its main core located in the Universe Domain, but its branches in the Mysterious Domain also contain many rare and precious materials.

Currently, the Myriad Trees within my body are growing too slowly. The few fruits on the tree have yet to take shape and remain small, with a long way to go before they mature.

In the past two days, he has also absorbed a lot of precious blood on the road, and many incomplete precious techniques have appeared on the rune leaves, but there is no supreme precious technique.

More importantly, most of the forces in the Xuan Domain are currently focused on the Western Sect's Ling Mountain, leaving the Patching Heaven Sect with virtually no one to guard it, making it the most suitable location.

He heard that during the battle between the two stones, Granny Xihua of the Butian Sect wanted to kill Shi Hao.

As a close friend of Shi Hao, Qi Shi'an could use the pretext of avenging Shi Hao to take action against the Butian Sect. Even if he destroyed the Butian Sect, no one could object.

At night, Qi Shi'an sat cross-legged in a cave, sorting through the treasures he had acquired.

During this raid on Thousand Hands City, countless spiritual herbs were obtained, along with several rare pieces of divine metal.

Upon reaching the Array Formation Realm, the array patterns inscribed within the body require many compatible treasures to enhance their power and resilience.

"The Western religion is backed by the Daoist lineage of the upper realm, and its foundation is unfathomable. It is only safe to have six sets of killing formations engraved in one's body."

Qi Shi'an now has an idea for the fifth set of array patterns, and he has enough resources to inscribe the array patterns.

He planned to use the Phoenix Treasure Technique as the main element to inscribe a complex killing formation.

The array patterns he carved in the first four sets were all based on the study of true dragons and the Nine Netherworld Hounds, creating world-destroying killing arrays. What he lacks now is a composite killing array.

Perfectly, using the True Dragon and Phoenix techniques as blueprints, I created a set of array patterns that are extremely powerful in both recovery and destruction, making up for the deficiencies.

Fortunately, Qi Shi'an had absorbed a lot of chaotic energy in the Void God Realm and incorporated it into the array patterns, engraving them into his flesh and blood, which could continuously enhance the strength of the array patterns.

It eventually transformed into a great formation that rivaled the Heaven-Opening Killing Formation, reaching the pinnacle of its array.

He thought to himself, "If I succeed, I'll be on par with Cao Yusheng in this realm."

Cao Yusheng, having carved the third killing formation of the Heaven-Opening Realm into his flesh and blood, achieved the pinnacle of formation mastery.

Qi Shi'an wanted to create his own array patterns and use chaotic energy as ink to carve a great array into his flesh and blood, ultimately transcending this realm.

Having gained experience from the first four sets of array patterns, he was already proficient in using chaotic energy to inscribe array patterns. The only difficulty was that creating array patterns took a little time.

However, the Myriad Trees have a remarkable effect on the analysis and fusion of original runes.

He has thoroughly comprehended all three major and ten fierce treasure techniques, and he has deduced the treasure techniques on the rune leaves to their fullest extent.

Sitting cross-legged on the ground, the Myriad Dao Tree, rooted in the physical body's inner sanctum, exhaled wisps of chaotic energy.

Bathed in a hazy glow, Qi Shi'an entered a state of enlightenment, deducing again and again, the entire cave filled with primordial runes.

As wisps of chaotic energy mingled with the runes, he vaguely saw the opening and closing of heaven and earth.

"chi"

Two enormous figures soared into the sky and disappeared into the clouds, traversing the sun, moon and stars. This was the dragon energy and true fire of the true dragon and the true phoenix, shaking the heavens and the earth!

Qi Shi'an meticulously deduced and pondered, extracting techniques from various schools and fusing them into a single system to create a heaven-defying array pattern.

In the hazy light, the true dragon and the true phoenix looked down upon the heavens, unleashing runes that merged with the chaotic energy, reconstructing entirely new runes.

Then, the runes flickered again, rearranged into array patterns, and disappeared into Qi Shi'an's flesh and blood.

The array patterns evolved to their fullest extent within his body, as if creating the world from nothing, and his body ignited with true fire, with dragon energy swirling around his body.

Qi Shi'an's body turned charred black, yet it was full of vitality, as if a terrifying power was being contained within him.

Finally, all the strange phenomena disappeared, the runes flickered and gradually faded, the array patterns began to shrink and turn into a single point of light, which emitted a burst of radiant light with his breath and flowed in his blood.

His body shed its dead skin, revealing a surface that shimmered with precious light.

At this moment, his physical body was tempered by the Phoenix True Fire and Dragon Qi, becoming as powerful as a crystal golden body.

Qi Shi'an created another composite formation, greatly increasing his strength.

This array pattern combines both offensive and defensive capabilities, and its power is immense when combined with other array patterns.

"The Heaven-Mending Sect, here I come!"

Qi Shi'an's eyes sharpened. It had taken him seven days to break through this time, and now there were only two days left until the end of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Festival, which was the time when all forces were relaxing.

He conjured a spiritual body and went ahead to the outer perimeter of the Patching Heaven Sect to prevent his attempt to steal their "home" from backfiring.

Another spiritual body is currently in the Western Church, constantly monitoring them.

If the Western Sect sends a Venerable to confirm after the destruction of the Heaven-Mending Sect, then he will immediately move on to Mount Ling after looting the Heaven-Mending Sect.

He wanted to launch a surprise attack while simultaneously feinting to the east and striking in the west!

……

Western religions have one sacred mountain after another, where the Buddha's light shines in all directions, and the air is filled with mist and haze, making it seem like an immortal pure land, peaceful and serene.

The mountains are shrouded in auspicious mist, mythical beasts roam freely, five-colored deer carry spiritual herbs, auspicious birds fly about, various spiritual medicines emit precious light, and more than a dozen white jade palaces stand majestically.

The foot of the mountain was crowded with people. Some came for the Ten Thousand Buddhas Festival, some came to spar with their peers from Xuanyu, but most came because of the legendary Little Demon King.

Even the three major forces—the Immortal Mountain Sect, the Heaven-Mending Sect, and the Heaven-Intercepting Sect—have sent experts.

Today, the entire Ling Mountain has gathered experts from most of the forces in the Xuan Domain, with no fewer than a hundred Venerable Realm experts and countless King Realm experts.

"This year's Ten Thousand Buddhas Festival has attracted far more people than the previous ones."

"Of course, the destruction of Thousand Hands City a few days ago has aroused the curiosity of countless people, who all want to see what the Little Demon King looks like."

"The Little Demon King didn't say he would definitely come, and today is the fourteenth day, it will end tomorrow."

"What if? Rumor has it that the Little Demon King is cunning and ruthless, and he never fails to capture any target he sets his sights on."

A commotion erupted among the crowd at the foot of the mountain. Everyone was eagerly anticipating the appearance of this little devil, hoping to witness this dramatic turn of events firsthand.

This young man, who stirred up a great storm in the desolate region, has now arrived in the Xuan region, causing another uproar.

People vaguely felt that the Little Demon King might have some trump card, otherwise how could he dare to commit such atrocities during the Ten Thousand Buddhas Festival?

The scene was lively down the mountain, and it was just as bustling up the mountain. The three major powers had been invited to witness the ceremony, but no one's mind was on the fighting arena.

"I never expected that my elder sister would come to witness the ceremony in person. I thought she didn't like joining in on these kinds of events."

The Celestial Fox Fairy smiled broadly, her bright eyes and white teeth, her vibrant red lips, and the several silvery-white fox tails behind her swaying, exuding a unique allure.

The veiled fairy Yuechan said calmly, "The True Dragon Treasure Technique on this demon's body is destined to be with my Heaven-Mending Sect, so I will certainly not be absent."

The Celestial Fox Fairy chuckled, "Sister Yuechan is joking. How can you convince everyone that your Heaven-Mending Sect has two incomplete techniques to claim a connection?"

"Moreover, I, your younger sister, also want to compete for this True Dragon Treasure Technique."

"Then let's settle this score for the battle that happened several years ago."

Yuechan gave a soft rebuke, and a shower of light rained down, swirling around her, making her appear incomparably holy.

Two stunningly beautiful women stood facing each other on the viewing platform, the atmosphere around them extremely tense.

The crowd was shocked and silently moved away. The feud between the Patching Heaven Sect and the Intercepting Heaven Sect was already well known, and the two sects were destined to go to war, which was a struggle over the principles of the Great Dao.

These two women looked as beautiful as angels, otherworldly and ethereal, but they exuded an extremely dangerous and powerful aura.

The Heavenly Fox Fairy's laughter rang like bells: "Sister, don't be in a hurry. That little demon king hasn't appeared yet. Starting a battle now would only give him an opportunity."
