The Daoist Sect Leader glanced at Xu Qingfeng and emphasized, "This wild beast is enormous and incredibly strong, relying on brute force to win. Here... its power will not be diminished..."
Hearing this, Xu Qingfeng was taken aback and nodded in understanding.
In this Small Space, their Spells were weakened, while the wild beast's power remained intact. This indicated that if they were in the Cultivation World, they could easily suppress the Golden Horn Beast with their Spells, but here...
Now that they understood the situation, how could they not realize the severity of it? They all gave up on stopping the Evil Ridge Sect Leader and turned to run toward the soon-to-close passage.
At that moment, the Golden Horn Beast had fully appeared in the Small Space. Its size was indeed immense; just a slight movement caused the ground to tremble continuously. Its body shimmered with golden light, and its massive scales were layered upon each other. It had a single golden horn on its head, which explained why it was called the Golden Horn Beast.
Although the Golden Horn Beast was a wild creature, it was merely powerful in strength compared to those with various formidable supernatural abilities. In this realm where the rules were imperfect, it was an absolute overlord!
"Roar!" The Golden Horn Beast had clearly not been released for a long time. As soon as it emerged, it let out a roar that stirred the winds and clouds.
At this moment, Xu Qingfeng and his companions were just about to step into the passage when suddenly a massive shadow loomed over them. Looking up, they saw the foot of the Golden Horn Beast coming down toward them.
If they were to be stepped on, it would mean certain death. They had no choice but to abandon the passage right before them and turn to evade the shadow above.
Even so, although they managed to avoid being crushed by the Golden Horn Beast's foot, when it landed, it caused a tremor in the ground that made them sway unsteadily.
"What do we do now?" Xu Qingfeng was completely at a loss and could only turn to the Daoist Sect Leader for guidance.
The Daoist Sect Leader's expression was also grim as he replied, "At this point, Ling Mo Xie has likely already run far away. We need not waste time on him; let's focus on protecting ourselves and wait for him to come back after he claims the Heavenly Crystal Key!"
"Understood!" Xu Qingfeng nodded; there was nothing else they could do.
Thus, they continued to dodge the Golden Horn Beast. The scene looked somewhat comical as several small figures moved beneath the enormous feet of the Golden Horn Beast while it seemed to wander about chaotically.
While they concentrated on avoiding the Golden Horn Beast, no one noticed that the Evil Ridge Sect Leader, who had been hiding nearby, was quietly moving toward the passage. Along his path, the Golden Horn Beast did not yield; instead, he too jumped around awkwardly like Daoist Sect Leader and his companions, carefully dodging the attacks of the Golden Horn Beast.
"Hmm?" Although Xu Qingfeng and his group did not notice this, Daoist Sect Leader did. After all, he was much more perceptive than Xu Qingfeng and his companions. Besides dodging the Golden Horn Beast, he could spare some attention for his surroundings.
Thus, Daoist Sect Leader spotted Evil Ridge Sect Leader stealthily moving toward the passage while also evading attacks.
"What’s going on? The Golden Horn Beast is his Beast Pet. If he wants to go to the passage now with the Golden Horn Beast present, no one can stop him. Why is he sneaking around while also dodging? Since this Golden Horn Beast is his pet, why not just command it directly?"
Daoist Sect Leader looked curiously at Evil Ridge Sect Leader cautiously making his way toward the passage. Soon enough, he figured out what was happening and his expression brightened as he said to Xu Qingfeng and others: "I thought so! Since Spells are weakened here, contract-type Spells should also be weakened. The Golden Horn Beast is a wild creature by nature; it does not submit easily to anyone's control. If we were in Cultivation World, he would have dominated it. Here with contract Spells weakened, whether he can command the Golden Horn Beast is still uncertain!"
In this way, the Daoist Sect Leader realized why the Golden Horn Beast was attacking in such a chaotic manner. This was not an attack at all; it was simply its instinctive playfulness, after all, it had never been released before.
Understanding this, the Daoist Sect Leader shouted to Xu Qingfeng and the others, "Stop the Evil Ridge Sect Leader! The Golden Horn Beast does not listen to his commands at all; we have no need to be so afraid!"
"What? The Golden Horn Beast doesn't listen to him?" Xu Qingfeng and Luo Yan were both taken aback. In the Cultivation World, Beast Pets had no power to resist their master's orders.
Although they were momentarily stunned, they still believed in the Daoist Sect Leader's words. They quickly reacted, dodging the Golden Horn Beast's massive feet while moving towards the direction of the Evil Ridge Sect Leader.
At this moment, the Evil Ridge Sect Leader also noticed the change and his expression shifted slightly as he quickened his pace towards the passage.
Xu Qingfeng and the others had to avoid the Golden Horn Beast, so they couldn't catch up. Seeing that the Evil Ridge Sect Leader was about to rush into the passage, Xu Qingfeng and Luo Yan looked anxious.
The Daoist Sect Leader was initially a bit anxious too, but soon he smiled. Just as the Evil Ridge Sect Leader was about to enter, the passage disappeared at the last moment.
The Evil Ridge Sect Leader stared blankly at the scene before him, realizing he had missed his chance.
"Now it's fine; we don't need to stop you anymore! Let's go!" The Daoist Sect Leader chuckled lightly and glanced at Xu Qingfeng and the others.
At this time, many of the Chiling Clan members who had helped Xu Qingfeng were dead or severely injured. Many more were unable to escape and perished under the Golden Horn Beast's feet. Seeing that they could leave now, the Chiling Clan Elder looked at the blood-soaked ground beneath him with moist eyes but said nothing. He simply waved to his clan members, "Let's go home!"
Meanwhile, the Evil Ridge Sect Leader was momentarily stunned but quickly glared at the Daoist Sect Leader in fury and coldly snorted, "Since I can't catch up to reclaim the Heavenly Crystal Key, then you won't have it easy either!"
With that, he activated his Spiritual Energy, and a surge of Black Qi erupted from him. The previously playful Golden Horn Beast suddenly let out a long howl, its steps becoming chaotic. It then began rolling on the ground as if shaking a giant drum, sending Xu Qingfeng and his companions flying into the air.
"Hmph! Go die!" the Evil Ridge Sect Leader shouted fiercely.
The Daoist Sect Leader's expression changed as he said, "This is bad; after all, the Golden Horn Beast is still his Beast Pet. Although it is no longer under control, it will still be influenced by him."
Before the Daoist Sect Leader could finish speaking, the Golden Horn Beast went into a frenzy. With a long howl of "Awooo!" it slammed its paw down onto the ground. Unlike its previous gentle steps on earth, this powerful strike caused a crack to open up in the ground—a dark fissure spreading out for miles.
The Evil Ridge Sect Leader laughed maniacally as he leaped aside to avoid the crack that was spreading toward him. He looked at Daoist Sect Leader and his companions and crazily shouted, "Let’s die together! Let’s die together! Hahaha! Let this space perish along with us! Since Ling Mo Xie controls the Heavenly Crystal Key anyway, I’m doomed regardless. I might as well take you all with me; that way I’ll break even!"
The Daoist Sect Leader's face turned pale. Even he had no good way to respond now; the Golden Horn Beast had completely gone berserk.
The Golden Horn Beast was known for its savage nature; its mind was not very sharp but it possessed an innate pride that refused to bow down to humans' commands. Originally in the Cultivation World, the Evil Ridge Sect Leader could suppress it with his cultivation level. However, here he lacked sufficient power to dominate the Golden Horn Beast yet still tried to command it, which triggered its proud nature and sent it into a rampage.
The Golden Horn Beast continued to pound on the ground with great force while howling towards the sky. Its body even began to grow larger—this was a sign that it had truly unleashed its fiery rage. With each powerful strike of its paw against the ground, either a massive pit would form or an endless crack would appear.
The Daoist Sect Leader and Xu Qingfeng could only keep dodging, and the Evil Ridge Sect Leader was in the same predicament.
The enormous roar of the Golden Horn Beast was damaging this Small Space, causing it to become unstable. Small black dots began to appear in the air, indicating fluctuations from the instability. In some areas, the space shattered, revealing endless void.
"If this continues, we will truly be buried alongside the Evil Ridge Sect Leader!" the Daoist Sect Leader said with a serious expression. If this persisted, the Golden Horn Beast would definitely shatter this newly formed small world, where the laws of heaven and earth were still incomplete. At that time, they would be swallowed by the surrounding endless void and ultimately turn into nothingness. Of course, the Golden Horn Beast that broke the space would meet the same fate.
However, the Golden Horn Beast was merely a beast; there was no reasoning with such a creature. At this moment, even if the Evil Ridge Sect Leader suddenly realized his mistake, there would be no way to change things.
The Daoist Sect Leader also regretted it deeply, never expecting such a situation to arise. He should have been better prepared when coming to the Demon Tomb.
At this time, the Evil Ridge Sect Leader had already gone mad, wearing a frenzied expression on his face as he laughed maniacally while dodging the void appearing in the heavens and earth and the endless cracks beneath his feet.
Convinced that everyone was doomed, he paid little attention to the Daoist Sect Leader and others, instead immersing himself in his own madness.
"Follow me!" At that moment, a panicked Xu Qingfeng and his companions suddenly heard a strange voice ringing in their ears.
"Who are you?" Xu Qingfeng looked at the person before him. The individual was handsome and likable, but being a stranger made him cautious.
"Hehe, I'm naturally the one here to save your lives! Hurry up! If you weren't friends of my boss, I wouldn't bother saving you. I chased after my boss here but didn't expect him to take off with the Heavenly Crystal Key first."
