A red and gruesome rain, with chunks of flesh, slowly fell around the whale. The whale’s aura was still active, and not a drop of blood hit it; on its back, a small girl clinging to its neck squirmed.
"Master! I want to see!" Ruri spoke irritably, with earth runes obstructing her view.
"Be quiet for a moment," Bruno replied; but it wasn’t for Ruri, it was for Alm, who grumbled, saying that the girl should watch everything carefully.
Bruno ignored the two annoyances, one in his mind and the other on his back, and focused on the tattoos on his wrist. A dense death Qi flowed in the air, and everything was sucked in by them and stored; then, hellish laws emerged and invaded the whale’s body like a tsunami.
The symbol of the evil god seemed to light up and shine brilliantly. ’Three and a half... four... four and a half, almost five wings!’ Bruno spoke mentally excitedly.
In the next second, the dome dissolved with the sound of breaking glass, and then the hellish laws of the place covered everything again. ’These idiots gave us many gifts. Hahaha!’ Alm spoke, laughing like a villain completely mad with blood.
’Control yourself, idiot! How are the demons?!’ Bruno spoke sharply; Alm was too excited and couldn’t take his eyes off the surroundings.
Ruri could see again, but everything was already covered again by the hellish laws. Then, Alm snapped irritably with his whale mouth, making Ruri quiet, and spoke mentally. ’They moved a bit, sensing the disturbance... but the elders are still standing in shock. Let’s finish this quickly.’
The whale, with its physical cultivation, moved. It was at that moment that the elders woke up in astonishment, and their leader shouted in everyone’s minds.
’Join forces and finish him off, attacking from all sides! Even if the patriarch catches us, his power is worth it!’
The experienced elders ran in all directions, surrounding the whale. Everyone drew their weapons, and even though they couldn’t use their Qi, they put everything they had out. The physical power of the whale and the level of bloodline demonstrated by it were completely abnormal and astronomical. Even with the deaths of so many disciples, when they obtained all its secrets, the high elders who were their relatives wouldn’t feel like they had lost anything.
The whale ran north again, but its speed, when compared to the elders, was seemingly equal or even slower. All twenty were around the dome, and when they moved swiftly, they managed to keep it in the center and approach at high speed, shortening the distance. They quickly entered the northern zone, but the elders no longer cared about anything.
When the distance was only five meters, the colossal figure of the whale was clearly visible, and then a sinister smile appeared on that corpulent form.
CRACK!!
The sound of the earth breaking echoed, and the whale disappeared from their encirclement before their eyes, turning into little more than a blur.
"What?!"
CRACK!
An elder exclaimed incredulously, but right after, the muffled sound of bones breaking and flesh tearing resounded. Was that the speed of the whale? All the elders were stunned by the extreme change.
Death was felt in their heads like a cold blade at their throats. Everyone tensed, and then only the sound of the earth being violently trampled behind them thundered like a roar.
CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!
There was no fight, and four were violently obliterated by an unstoppable demonic whale. How could they be Alm and Bruno’s match without QI? Their greatest advantage, their cultivation, was useless in this place. The lead elder and all the others went pale as the leading elder immediately pulled a black rune from his spirit ring and moved to activate it in desperation. But in that very second, he only felt blood rise in his throat, and a fat hand pierced through his chest, tearing his body apart as if it were a toy.
’He really had a means of contact with the demons! We don’t have time!’ Bruno exclaimed and quickly turned to the remaining elders. They could tell after that elder took out that black rune that it was related to the demons.
They first wanted to confirm this as they hid their true speed and physical ability from the beginning. The elders felt confident and surrounded the approaching whale; then, even if they wanted to escape, the whale could finish them all. In a few seconds, the keen perception of these elders sensed the trap, and in desperation, they used everything they had. Now, Alm and Bruno spared nothing, and the entire giant body was covered in a black flame that rose up to five meters around them.
BOOM!
A wave of black destruction advanced at an alarming physical speed, and all the elders were caught and sent flying as if a god’s hammer had collided with them. The whale just ran and used its giant body, and in five seconds, they all turned into meat paste.
They were all elders at the first level of the Core Formation Realm or close to it. But none of them could use the advantage of their cultivation, relying only on their physical bodies. In the previous test, the whale had the same physical level as an elder of that level, but now, after fully completing the first level of physical cultivation, its power multiplied, and there was no competition against these elders.
’JUST RUN!’ Alm exclaimed. ’The demons were alerted by the disturbance and are coming!’
They didn’t have time to collect anything from the elders; only the infernal laws managed to penetrate the whale’s body in time. So, they shot off in a desperate escape. As soon as they confirmed that the elders really had contact with the demons, it was obvious that the demons would sense the disturbance and come. However, they would be slower to react on their own upon realizing their deaths, and because of the distance, it would give them time.
’Almin, run everyone south now!’ The whale sent the message to Almin through the array.
Only an hour had passed since Almin’s group began hunting the infernal beasts, and at this moment, they were heading towards another beast, completely excited. They had already killed five out of the ten and were about to complete the ’punishment’ much earlier than anticipated. When Almin received the message, he felt the urgency and turned around, running straight south, only having time to shout to Langrum without explaining anything.
Alm and Bruno knew that escaping from these two demons was impossible. They could only use their physical bodies, while the demons were life forms linked to Yin and lived in the abyss, which was the source of all infernal laws. With this, the demons were at their full power, while Alm and Bruno were very restricted. Even if they fled to the next level, so what? The demons would still pursue, and spending an entire day running was also unfeasible.
’Almin and the group are exactly northeast of here. Let’s meet up in three minutes at that distance.’ Alm spoke, sensing their location. ’Also, we’ll encounter one of the demons thirty seconds later, so we have to fight and kill it in a maximum of five minutes before the other, coming from behind, arrives.’
Bruno nodded. This was the best solution. The demons were separated from the beginning, each in the opposite direction, so they would catch them separately. With everyone attacking together, it should be possible, so Bruno, who couldn’t feel anything, asked:
’What’s the cultivation of the demons?’

Alm then replied with a tense sigh. ’Both are at the second level of the Core Formation Realm.’
Bruno then tensed up; they had to kill two demons much more powerful than them quickly, with almost nothing at their disposal. What kind of insanity was this?
