《Refining the Mountains and Rivers》Chapter 665 – The Ancient Race Appears
Advertisement
When strength exceeded the limits, as it did now using these horns as the medium, it would crash into the void where it would be withstood by the world itself.
As long as one couldn’t break through this world, no matter how horrifically strong an impact was, Babasa would be safe and fine.
The powers of the abyssal devils were truly formidable and strange. No wonder he had been reckless enough to face Qin Yu and Solitary Westgate without any sense of fear.
“Your Majesty Demon Sovereign, you should be proud of having forced out my true body.” Babasa laughed, “As a token of my respect towards you, I will make sure you die a painless death.”
Qin Yu was silent, as if he were at a loss for words. Babasa’s laughter became increasingly rampant, his billowing voice constantly echoing through the air.
“You are afraid.”
The laughter suddenly stopped. Babasa looked at Qin Yu, an incomparably strange look in his eyes.
“You are indeed afraid.”
Babasa smiled, “Your Majesty Demon Sovereign, on what basis are you drawing your conclusion?”
Qin Yu lightly said, “To vent any strength that surpasses your withstanding limits into the world itself, although this is something that seems impossible to overcome, it does reveal one thing.”
His gaze suddenly sharpened, like the shining blade of a sword. “You absorb outside forces to restore yourself, but there are clearly limits to this. If these venting channels are blocked and the strength is forced to accumulate inside your body, just what would happen then?”
Babasa’s smile faded away. He clapped his hands, a look of acclaim on his face, “Your Majesty’s intelligence is truly worthy of the name of the Demon Sovereign. You unexpectedly realized the secret of my devil race.”
His tone suddenly changed, filled with a taunting flavor, “But this world never lacks smart people. The abyssal devils run rampant through the endless heavens and countless people know the flaw of my race, but how many of them can make use of it?”
The horns of an abyssal devil were formed from the life essence they gathered. As their cultivation rank rose, they received all sorts of inconceivable supernatural powers.
Babasa was a Devil Overlord, just a step away from being a Great Overlord. Even though his horns looked real, they couldn’t be touched at all. Because the space where they were located was in a state of countless layers that cycled endlessly and couldn’t be passed through.

Since his horns couldn’t be touched, who could seal off the strength that was vented from these horns and into the world?
Qin Yu said without expression, “Is that so? Then I must give it a try.”
He took a step forward and raised his hands into the skies.
Roar –
With a loud roar, a towering phantom appeared. It stood as high as the heavens as its eyes were filled with stubbornness, as if not even the heavens could make it bow its head.
This was the undying true spirit of the Ancient ancestors!
The true spirit moved in sync with Qin Yu. It lifted its hands and spread its fingers, ruthlessly grasping as if it were searching for something hidden.
The ten fingers curved and the arms filled with strength. The muscles of its arms bulged out and it howled into the air.
Rumble rumble –
The phantom of a mountain appeared in the skies. It seemed as if it had been buried in the endless void, but now it had been grasped and was slowly being dragged into the world.
Before it had completely arrived, an endless suppressive erupted from the mountain phantom. The air in the world became thick and viscous, like a pitch black swamp that could submerge and swallow everything.
Babasa’s complexion changed. “Ancient! You are an Ancient!”
This was Qin Yu’s first time fully stimulating the strength of the Ancient inheritance and summoning the full projection of the Ancients’ Holy Mountain. It was no longer possible for him to conceal his status as an Ancient.
Looking at the endless heavens and 10,000 realms, the abyssal devils could be ranked in the top ten races. Their influence was spread throughout the highest heavens and deepest earth.
If it weren’t for the fact that the abyssal devils always loved infighting and their great generals kept killing each other, they could even be ranked in the top three.
But in this world there was no such thing as absolute power. When the terrifying devil race faced the small and weak descendants of the bloodline of light, their strength would be completely restrained.
In addition to that, there were also several races that possessed the power to suppress the devils. This included the Ancient race.
To be more exact, it was the strength of the Holy Mountains that came from the Ancients’ inheritance. Even if the race was on the wane, they had never once been grasped by others.

Suppressing Sea, Suppressing Heaven, Suppressing All Directions.
The name of the sea was Endless.
The name of the heaven was All Worlds.
All directions included all things in existence.
To suppress the Endless Sea.
To suppress the Heavens of All Worlds.
To suppress All Things in Existence!
The Ancient race’s three Holy Mountains had a prestige that spread throughout the infinite heavens and 10,000 realms. The decline of the Ancients in the past was connected to this.
The strength of the Holy Mountains could indeed seal away the supernatural arts of the devil race’s horns. Even if their master was a formidable Devil Overlord.
“How hateful! Qin Yu is an Ancient, he is actually an Ancient!”
Babasa roared out in his heart. His strength had been severely wounded and his true body and consciousness had been in deep sleep for all these years. He unexpectedly wasn’t able to discover this ahead of time.
With his current condition, once the channels on his horns that vented strength were sealed away, the strength within his body would run wild and the only fate that remained for him would be exploding to death.
“Don’t panic. Even if Qin Yu is an Ancient, with his current cultivation he can at most summon the phantom of a single Holy Mountain. There is a limit to the amount of suppression he can summon. As long as I can restore some of my strength as soon as possible, I can erupt with an Overlord level strike and kill both him and Solitary Westgate!”
The Suppressing Sea Holy Mountain arrived. Like a passageway being blocked, the strength that blasted into the world suddenly decreased dramatically.
Babasa’s entire body swelled up. His face turned red and his eyes turned blood red.
He glared at Qin Yu. “I never imagined that you were actually an Ancient. But, so what? With your strength, you cannot summon a second Holy Mountain! The one that will remain smiling victoriously in the end will still be me!”
Qin Yu’s face paled. He lowered his head a little, gasping for breath.
Babasa was right. With his present cultivation, summoning the complete Suppressing Sea Holy Mountain was already straining his limits.
But he still had another card in his hand!
Within his chest, his heart began to vigorously beat, pushing blood to race through his body.
“Ancient!”
With a single word, a vast and dismal aura filled the world.
Across from him, Babasa’s eyes widened and he screeched, “In the world of the great sun, you dare to become the incarnation of an Ancient! You are courting death!”
“Supporting the heavens and earth from birth!”
Rumble rumble –
From all sides, endless strength of the heavens and earth rushed over in tides visible to the naked eye, submerging Qin Yu.
“But after death, we will not fall!”
All of the gathered heaven and earth strength seemed to be sucked in by a black hole. All of it wildly poured into a massive figure that slowly appeared.
Its eyes seemed to flow with nebulas. As if it could contain the heavens within them, making all things bow in its presence!
After endless millions of years, another Ancient finally appeared in the world of the great sun. Like a drop of dark ink falling into water, it produced fluctuations that rapidly spread outwards.
The fluctuations weren’t limited to just this world. They erupted to the worlds beyond, transmitting a signal to the rulers of the great sun world that the Ancient race had appeared once more.
It informed them that the Ancient race that had been hunted down endless years ago and exterminated had once again reappeared!
“Hah…”
In the endless void, a light sigh seemed to sound out. It was filled with a bit of strange helplessness.
The fluctuations that rapidly spread out from the world seemed as if they were wiped away by an invisible hand, vanishing from sight.
At the top of the world within terrifying astral winds, an eye that had just formed and hadn’t even had time to open was pierced through like a bubble.
“Ahh!”
Astral winds howled, immediately annihilating this pitiful crying sound. Faint traces of blood red color appeared in the wind, as if dyed by blood.
