A monstrous demonic energy gushed out.

A blazing scarlet light forcibly pushed away the numerous demon beasts that had rushed in like a fountain from the surrounding area and squeezed out of the crack.

Within this bright red bundle of light was a fire phoenix over fifty feet long!

The aura emitted by this fire phoenix was even more powerful than that of a cultivator at the first or second level of the Aurous Core stage. It was extremely terrifying. At this moment, the chest of the Flamephoenix was charred black, as if she had suffered some serious injury from the Heaven's Expanse Palace's counterattack.

This fire phoenix, which was clearly no lower than the middle rank of the seventh level, pierced through the sky, causing a powerful black demonic aura to surge in.

The one emitting this black demonic aura was a huge black ape over twenty feet tall. Its head was caved in and there was a strange yellow pattern on its chest.

The aura of this giant black ape was not any weaker than that of the fire phoenix that flew across the sky first. Moreover, this giant black ape looked extremely fierce on the outside, but its eyes flickered with yellow light, and its temper was not as good as that of the fire phoenix. When it rushed in, its hands waved wildly.

At the same time these two extremely high level demonic beasts entered the rift, beams of light also appeared in the faraway city of cultivators that was two to three thousand miles away.

First, there were hundreds, then there were more, and then there were tens of thousands of them. It was as if all the cultivators in the city had been shocked and were rus.h.i.+ng over.

At that place, the Monstrous Beasts kept on gus.h.i.+ng out like a fountain. In a short moment, at least several thousand Monstrous Beasts surged in.

Not only did the demonic beasts, including the fire phoenix and the giant black ape, not flee in all directions, they instead charged towards the cultivator city.

A white and a yellow light emerged from the dense light, far surpa.s.sing the speed of the other light beams. An enormous pressure was emitted from both of them, and even the sky above the light beams seemed to change according to the fluctuations of the spiritual energy in the two light beams.

Within the white light was a grey-robed old man. His face was square and imposing, and it seemed as if there was lightning in his eyes as his white hair continuously flashed with green light. This old man was clearly an Aurous Core stage cultivator, and the white spirit energy emanating from his body had condensed into the shape of a silkworm.

The other yellow light beam contained a dwarf Daoist Priest who was only five or six years old. This cultivator dressed in a blue robe was also an Aurous Core stage cultivator, and the spiritual energy he emitted was also purple like Wei Suo's. However, the purple spirit energy that was seeping out from his body was condensing into the shape of a Eight Trigrams Magic Mirror. This dwarf Daoist Priest had delicate features and looked no different from a five-year-old boy. However, his eyes were sharp and deep, clearly because of the cultivation technique he had cultivated, which resulted in him maintaining his appearance all this time. His true age must also be very old.

"There's actually another opening in the sky! In these ten years, this is already the fourth crack, and also so close to it! "

"Fellow Daoist Qing, I'll help you guard the formation and have you lay down the Ice Soul Cold Ice Formation."

While the two Aurous Core stage cultivators took the lead and rushed towards the demonic beast horde that was rolling with demonic energy, they were also constantly talking.

"I wonder how big this crack is …"

"Fellow Daoist Qing, borrow the Dragoncry Treasure Bell on your body for a moment."

The gray-robed, dignified old man known as Fellow Daoist Qing by the dwarf Daoist Priest was now filled with shock. He was talking about a rift in the sky. On the other hand, the midget Daoist Priest with the appearance of a five or six year old boy had a face as calm as water.

In comparison, this gray-robed dignified elder seemed to be a bit timid and weak.

But in actuality, any cultivator from the northern part of the Profound Sky Continent would only feel reverence for this grey-robed elder's words, as they would not dare to underestimate him.

This old man was called Qing Lingzi, he had the t.i.tle of Daoist Master Tian Silkworm and was extremely famous in Tianxuan Continent. He had killed two Aurous Core stage cultivators before, and was usually not a coward.

The reason why Qing Lingzi was behaving in such a manner right now was because both he and the Dwarf Daoist Feng Xiaoran beside him, who was also extremely famous in the northern part of the Profound Sky Continent, had experienced it firsthand.

Previously, when Wei Suo was visiting the disciple recruitment a.s.sembly of the Black Wind Sect a few years ago, he, who was still rather shallow, heard the introduction of the cultivators. Although in the Profound Sky Continent, when it comes to the top sects, most cultivators would think of the central part of the Profound Sky Continent, because the Black Wind Sect was a very large scale top-notch sect, and many of them were located in the central part of the Profound Sky Continent. But in reality, this was also because the central region of the Profound Sky Continent was the most vast, and had a total of over a thousand cultivator cities. When it came to average strength, the cities in the northern part of the Profound Sky Continent were actually the most powerful.

The reason it was like this was because the sky that encompa.s.sed the entire Profound Sky Continent had more openings at the northernmost part of it. There were also many powerful demon beasts living in the sky, so cultivators lived in more harsh environments and they had relatively more experience in fighting magic. The Beiming Sect and the Mysterious Wind Sect in the northern part of the Profound Sky Continent were equally famous, as they were one of the ten great sects in the Profound Sky Continent. However, the number of disciples they had was only one third of the number in the Mysterious Wind Sect.

And this Daoist Master Skysilk, Qing Lingzi, and Spiritual Master Purple Mirror, Feng Xiao Ran, were both cultivators of the Heavenly Nurturing City. The difference between them was that Daoist Master Skysilk was a rogue cultivator of the Heavenly Nurturing City while Spiritual Master Purple Mirror was the Grand Elder of the Heavenly Nurturing Sect.

It was one of the three cities closest to the dome of the sky at the northernmost tip of the Profound Sky Continent. It possessed the largest number of demon beast fur, beast cores, claws, teeth, bones, and other materials needed to refine artifacts. It could be said to be the most important place where the raw materials needed for all the cultivators of the northern part of the Profound Sky Continent would gather.

Thirty years ago, a crack had suddenly appeared in the sky outside the city.

This crack was the place where the purplish black light shone. It was a purplish black light, but later on, many powerful cultivators of the Sky Nurturing City collaborated to set up a sealing array to block the crack in the sky!

If it wasn't for the fact that they had experienced that Heaven's Sky tear, they might not have felt that it was so bad. At most, they would only be able to sneak in a few demonic beasts from time to time. But in fact, many demon beasts seemed to be able to sense it, and there were even some demon beasts with particularly keen senses. They were even able to sense the weakness, exhaustion, and rupture of the dome of heaven ahead of time, so when there was a crack in the dome of heaven, an astonis.h.i.+ng number of demon beasts would suddenly rush in through it.

Thirty years ago, most of the cultivators in the Sky Nurturing City did not realize this point and did not organize their defenses in time to block the opening in the sky. In the end, countless demon beasts poured in to save the city, and just like most of the other cities, tens of thousands of cultivators perished under the impact of the beast tide.

At that time, Qing Lingzi was still in the fifth level of the Fragmentation Realm and had yet to form her Aurous Core, while Feng Xiao Ran had just condensed his Aurous Core and did not have many powerful magic treasures. The two of them could only watch helplessly as many cultivators who were close to the strength of the two fell.

Now, cultivators who had experienced the rift in the sky all realized that the rift was like a flood that had to be sealed up as quickly as possible. Otherwise, more and more demonic beasts would sense the commotion, and even more high-level demonic beasts would arrive. To many high level demon beasts, the aurous body of cultivators and even the aurous cores of Aurous Core stage cultivators were great supplements, and were equivalent to elixirs. With more and more high-level demon beasts coming, the demon beasts would be like a flood that completely broke through the dam. Not to mention the fact that the city was destroyed, it might even be difficult for the nearby cultivators to escape because the speed of many demon beasts was faster than the speed of the magic treasures and techniques of cultivators.

However, at this moment, Qing Lingzi was truly astonished from the bottom of his heart, and what made him a little unsteady was that although there were quite a few cracks in the sky above the Profound Sky Continent, it had acc.u.mulated for countless tens of thousands of years. This kind of situation where two cracks had continuously appeared within a radius of one to two thousand kilometers, had never happened in the entire history of the Profound Sky Continent!

All these signs indicated that the gap in the sky had become shorter and shorter over the past hundreds of years. It seemed that the depletion of the sky's might was an indisputable fact!

"Seven Fiends Fire Phoenix, Soul Devouring Ape, fellow Daoist Qing, you can only set up the Frozen Soul Divine Light Array here!" Later, when you take care of the Seven Fiends Fire Phoenix, I'll take care of the Soul Devouring Ape. "

After a series of rapid leaps, the originally silent Dwarf Daoist immediately twitched his face when he saw the fire phoenix shaped Demonic Beast and the giant black ape-shaped Demonic Beast, which were about thirty to forty miles away from the group of Demonic Beasts. He sternly spoke to Qing Lingzi before stopping. With a wave of his hand, a small white bell and a blue bead the size of a fist appeared in front of him. At the same time, he took out an icy-blue jade talisman and held it in his hand.

Qing Lingzi also stopped without a word. He slapped his own storage pouch and quickly took out a three Zhang long white ice pillar.

In just a short moment, Qing Lingzi took out over a hundred white ice shards, each as thick as a person's thigh, and these white ice shards, under his command, scattered in the open s.p.a.ce in front of him and Qing Lingzi.

"Fellow Bai also came."

At the same time, the two Aurous Core stage cultivators both felt something and looked behind them. Their expressions relaxed a little.
