The Heavenly Saint Daoist’s eyes were fierce and ruthless. He took advantage of the Beast King’s momentary distraction and summoned a divine weapon. A wave of intense killing intent surged towards the Beast King, forcing him to react promptly and defend himself. Relying on his earth-defying defense, he managed to withstand the assault.

The Beast King roared in rage, “I am a dignified Sanctuary Powerhouse. I won’t surrender without a fight today! Even if I have to put my life on the line, I’ll cut my way out. Not only for myself, but also for the safety of the millions of demon beasts in the mountain range. Our clan has stood tall for tens of thousands of years. If we fall today, how can we face the past Beast Kings of the mountain range?”

At this moment, the killing intent surged into the sky. Although trapped in the array, the Beast King’s bloodline power expanded. Despite only being able to summon a small part of his power, his tyrannical aura still forced the Heavenly Saint Daoist to take three steps back, signaling that the Beast King has started to fight desperately.

The Heavenly Saint Daoist didn’t dare to be careless, he addressed while fending off the Beast King, “It’s a bit difficult for me alone. One of you should help me. It wouldn’t be fair for me to fight the Beast King alone while you reap the benefits. Since we’re cooperating, we should face the enemy together. Otherwise, if I lose to the Beast King, we’ll all be doomed.”

“It’s not that we don’t want to help but our powers are too weak. Even if we enter the array, we would only hold you back. After all, we’re only at the Throne level, hardly significant in a fight against Sanctuary Powerhouses. It’s better to not add to your troubles. You should fight the Beast King alone and remember not to show mercy at this moment.”

Logan remained indifferent outside the array, which perplexed Bart Cloud. Why not go in and lend a hand? If the Heavenly Saint Daoist couldn’t defeat the Beast King, all their previous plans would be futile. This risk was simply too great. Furthermore, what if the Heavenly Saint Daoist became discontented and refused to cooperate because they didn’t help?

The Heavenly Saint Daoist’s face darkened as he continued to curse Logan in his mind. Wasn’t this pure exploitation? However, given that things had come to this, there was no going back. He could only muster all his strength to fight the Beast King, swearing to make Logan pay. The first thing he would do once he obtained the Demon Beast Supreme Treasure and extended his life was to settle his scores with Logan.

Seeing Bart Cloud’s increasing desire to intervene, Logan felt rather helpless and had to explain via Divine Consciousness Transmission. At this moment, both the Heavenly Saint Daoist and Beast King were trapped within the Barrier Array. Their fight would result in one of them barely surviving. Whether they lived or died would then be in Logan and Bart Cloud’s hands.

If they entered the array, they would inevitably have to get involved. If the Beast King suddenly formed an alliance with the Heavenly Saint Daoist while they were trapped within the array, they wouldn’t even have a chance to escape, they’d be at their mercy. Therefore, they must remain outside and watch the tiger fight. Even if the Heavenly Saint Daoist was defeated by the Beast King, there would be no harm to them.

Logan was well aware that despite the strategic cooperation with the Heavenly Saint Daoist, the latter was a fickle and untrustworthy person. Once the Beast King, the biggest threat, was eliminated, the Heavenly Saint Daoist would undoubtedly tear up the agreement. Both the Beast King and the Heavenly Saint Daoist couldn’t be trusted because, fundamentally, they were both cut from the same cloth!

“You’re right, I didn’t consider the broader picture.” Bart Cloud nodded, feeling enlightened. His previous thoughts were too narrow. He had been considering the Heavenly Saint Daoist as an ally, forgetting their initial opposition.

The Heavenly Saint Daoist was slightly superior to the Beast King, forcing the latter to retreat continuously. Although the Beast King had already activated his bloodline Divine Skill, his strength was suppressed within the array. He was starting to show signs of injury. The greatest Divine Skill of a Sanctuary Powerhouse was the use of laws, but he can’t condense any at this moment.

The Beast King glared with a chilling gaze, roaring, “Do you want to fight me to the death? Then I’ll have no more reservations! I’ll summon the millions of demon beasts in the mountain range under my name. I don’t believe we can’t flatten this tiny array. Even a saint may not be able to withstand it. Ten Sanctuary Powerhouses can’t be a match for millions of demon beasts unleashed with combined force!”

The Beast King was well aware that summoning the millions of demon beasts would mean at least half of them would die. But given the current crisis, he had no other choice but to sacrifice the demon beasts of the mountain range in order to survive. The Demon Beast clan couldn’t lose their Supreme Treasure. As the Beast King chanted the demon beast summoning spell.

However, he turned pale the next moment, as the message failed to send, blocked by the array. He fell into despair and after trying several times, finally gave up. This felt like being trapped within a barrier, completely isolated. The Beast King didn’t want to fall here. After all, he had just awakened from a century-long slumber and was looking forward to leading the demon beast clan and reign over the Ancient World.

“Beast King, you’ve run out of tricks now, haven’t you?” The Heavenly Saint Daoist mocked, feeling ecstatic remembering his previous predicament. Not only was he going to kill the Beast King, he was also going to acquire the Supreme Treasure of the Demon Beast Clan. From then on, his cultivation would progress by leaps and bounds, while the Beast King would merely become a tormented soul under his hand.

Just then, a terrifying presence descended and the roar of a demon beast echoed through the hundred miles. The Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast then appeared, angrily charging at the array. The array barrier, however, remained unmoving like a mountain.

The Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast looked anxious, addressing the Beast King, “King, don’t worry. I swear I’ll put my life on the line to rescue you. Hundreds of thousands of demon beasts from our clan are rushing over. Today, Logan and the Heavenly Saint Daoist will have no place to be buried. Our clan will not tolerate outsiders trampling on us. Whoever dares to harm the Beast King is warring against our entire demon beast clan.”

“Alas, I regret not listening to your advice earlier.” The moment Beast King saw the Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast, a glimmer of hope flared in his eyes. As long as the Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast could break the barrier, his strength wouldn’t be reduced and the Heavenly Saint Daoist wouldn’t be able to trouble him. Therefore, he pinned all his hopes on the Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast.

Thinking back to the advice the Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast had repeatedly given him, he felt tremendously ashamed. As the king of the Demon Beast Clan, he shouldn’t have allowed this situation to occur. He swore that if he survived this ordeal, he’d share half of his territory with the Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast and treat it like a blood brother.

“King, we unconditionally support your decisions.” The Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast said solemnly. No one could guarantee their decisions would always be right. It was just a temporary setback. In fact, the beast argued that it was at fault, it should’ve followed the king into battle right away instead of letting him fight alone.
