The Duoya Upper Realm was an upper realm located near the upper realm where the Nine Soul Holy Clan resided. It was a world completely ruled by the Nine Soul Holy Clan.
But at this moment, a monster had appeared within the Duoya Upper Realm.
Massive black aura blotted out the sky and sun, brimming with an evil energy.
Yet such tremendous black aura was being released from a tiny figure.
This person was the Ming Ri Prince.
The Ming Ri Prince was currently in a berserk state, his body emanating a power far exceeding his own strength.
Furthermore, he had nearly lost all consciousness, his entire being reduced to nothing but a violent, brutal aura.
Fortunately, there was no one around this place. Otherwise, with the violent energy radiating from him, he would have undoubtedly gone on a killing spree.
Suddenly, a massive figure tore through the void and arrived not far from the Ming Ri Prince.
It was the Thousand Change Demonic Fox, and seated upon the Thousand Change Demonic Fox was none other than the old Daoist.
"So it's this little brat."
"Did he escape here through Sima Xiangtu's formation?"
"I didn't expect the power of the bloodline to be this formidable. That old thing Sima Xiangtu must have laid a special formation on him."
"After Sima Xiangtu died, the formation activated and caused this."
"He intended to use his power to go on a killing spree?"
"Sima Xiangtu was truly despicable — even knowing he was going to die, he still wanted to commit atrocities after his own death."
The old Daoist had tracked the aura here and was quite surprised to find it was the Ming Ri Prince.
But he had long since noticed that the Ming Ri Prince bore layers of special formations. Some of those formations were laid by the Asura Spirit Army, but there was one particular formation left behind by Sima Xiangtu.
The old Daoist hadn't paid it much mind at first, but now, based on his deductions, he had already figured out the purpose of that formation.
It was a formation that would drive the Ming Ri Prince into a berserk state.
To put it plainly, Sima Xiangtu was a villain to begin with. If he died, this berserk formation would activate, and the Ming Ri Prince would go on a killing spree.
And right now, the power emanating from the Ming Ri Prince, under normal circumstances, could nearly slaughter the entire Nine Soul Heavenly River.
"Oh, seems like he's noticed us."
The old Daoist sighed suddenly, because the Ming Ri Prince had already locked his murderous gaze onto the old Daoist.
It was clear that the Ming Ri Prince was about to make his move on the old Daoist.
ROAR——
Suddenly, a beast-like roar erupted from the Ming Ri Prince's mouth.
At the same time, the massive, sky-overflowing aura transformed into several enormous black claws that swiped toward the old Daoist and the Thousand Change Demonic Fox.
The stance was clearly one meant to tear the old Daoist apart.
"Hmph."
But facing the Ming Ri Prince's assault, the old Daoist merely let out a soft snort, and all of that terrifying black aura came to a complete standstill.
Not only the terrifying black aura, but even the Ming Ri Prince himself seemed to be frozen in place.
Despite gritting his teeth, roaring ceaselessly, and struggling with all his might, he could barely move.
A flicker of killing intent also surfaced in the old Daoist's eyes.
He rose into the air, walking upon the void, approaching the Ming Ri Prince step by step.
As if sensing the killing intent radiating from the old Daoist, the Ming Ri Prince — who had already lost consciousness and entered a berserk state — began to instinctively panic.
But when the old Daoist arrived before the Ming Ri Prince, he did not strike directly.
"It'd be a shame to kill him like this."
"Perhaps your existence could be of some help to my disciple."
"Why not let you live on, carrying that hatred with you."
It turned out the old Daoist had suddenly changed his mind.
He formed hand seals with both palms, then began setting up a formation.
Hummm——
In an instant, light radiated in all directions.
If the black aura previously emitted by the Ming Ri Prince had already pierced through heaven and earth, a horror visible from afar—
then the formation the old Daoist was now laying was even more magnificent than that black aura.
It was as if a true sun had suddenly descended upon this world, its radiance so brilliant that the entire world could clearly see it.
But soon, the massive formation immediately began to shrink, until it was reduced to the size of an egg, floating in the old Daoist's palm.
The old Daoist gently tapped the Ming Ri Prince on the forehead, and the formation merged into his brow.
The next moment, all the aura he had released automatically returned to his body, and his terrifying eyes gradually returned to their normal state.
Only the old Daoist and the Thousand Change Demonic Fox had already vanished without a trace.
"What just... happened?"
The Ming Ri Prince gazed around him, and for a moment, everything felt like a dream.
