This was the Demonic Thunder Tiger—a calamity beast among the nine that possessed the power to
control thunder.
Townsend commanded the spiritual race army led by the Heavenly Demon Clan to assemble into
formation.
The Demonic Thunder Tiger could summon ferocious thunder. Once it attacked, its enemy would
inevitably be injured or die. Therefore, Townsend set up a spiritual array with a diameter of a thousand
meters to safely encircle around the city ruins by absorbing the thunder's power.
Once the spiritual array was deployed, the army of the spiritual race got into position as commanded.
Meanwhile, the Demonic Thunder Tiger appeared to sense it was surrounded by several thousand
members of the spiritual race army. It wasted no time taking action.
"Once I lure this Demonic Thunder Tiger into the spiritual array, we'll restrain it with the power of the
nine spiritual treasures," Townsend instructed the patriarchs of the advanced spiritual race clans and
Rocky who owned the spiritual treasures.
Townsend then drew out two spiritual treasures and handed one of them to a powerful spiritual master
elder who possessed the strength to manipulate it.
Seeing this, the other clan leaders took out their spiritual treasures as well.
Then, they fixed their gazes upon Rocky all at once.
His eye narrowed slightly, Rocky opened his Magic Spiritual Space and instructed Robin to retrieve two
spiritual treasures—the Sunrise Magic Dragon Bow and the Sea God Hammer. He then handed the
first treasure to Marcia.
"Do you intend to manipulate the spiritual treasure by yourself, Prince Crimson? Won't it be too
difficult?" Townsend questioned once he saw Rocky wield the Sea God Hammer.
"Thank you for your concern Patriarch Townsend, but I assure you I am more than capable of
manipulating this spiritual treasure," Rocky replied calmly. His strength was currently at the Immortal
Stage and the sealed power of the eighth layer in his body had been released. Controlling the spiritual
treasure with speed and ease wouldn't be a big problem for him.
Upon Rocky's reply, Townsend's expressions changed ever so slightly. Assured of Rocky's confidence,
he had nothing more to say.
"Let's do it," Townsend ordered.
Holding the Heavenly Incredible Mace, Townsend flew towards the Demonic Thunder Tiger. He
successfully caught its attention and then led it to the spiritual array.
The other leaders and the elder of the Heavenly Demon Clan followed suit. At the rear of the team
were Rocky, Marcia, and Cherry who rode on Uriah.
Not long after, the Demonic Thunder Tiger was brought into the spiritual array. At nearly the exact
moment, the nine holders began to manipulate the nine spiritual treasures. Bright spiritual light
immediately soared like nine small suns soaring through the sky, covering a range of a thousand
square meters. The spiritual power began to surge all around, like a strong wind constantly blowing
around them. It was a sight to behold!
Sensing the power of the nine spiritual treasures, the Demonic Thunder Tiger immediately became
alert. As the beast's spiritual power surged, violent thunder fell from the sky and struck down wildly. But
then, the spiritual array under the beast's foot began to glow with spiritual light and immediately formed
an enormous, circular enchanted barrier above the nine holders' heads. The barrier managed to block
a wave of power for the nine holders. This gave them the perfect opportunity to strike.
Soon after, the nine spiritual treasures burst forth as nine astonishing spiritual beams that rushed
towards the Demonic Thunder Tiger.
Upon seeing the beams heading towards it, the Demonic Thunder Tiger realized what the army of the
spiritual race intended to do. It let out a deafening roar before its huge mountain-like body surged with
a powerful thunder current and formed a thunder light barrier.
The nine spiritual beams crashed into the thunder light barrier. A blinding light violently burst out and
destroyed the thunder light barrier upon impact. Then, the nine spiritual beams hit the Demonic
Thunder Tiger.
The beast immediately let out an anguished howl. Weakened by the nine spiritual beams, the aura
surrounding its body began to dwindle as well.
"Let's finish it!" Townsend ordered.
Upon his command, thousands of the spiritual race army quickly surrounded the tiger. Using their clans'
specific set of secret skills, they began their attack on the beast.
Although it was weakened by the nine spiritual treasures, the beast still had enough power to fight
back. Soon, the thunder radiance surged through the sky and caused a thunder rain reaching a
hundred meters all around to come pouring down. As the crash of thunder began to roll mercilessly,
numerous spiritual race members were struck and fell to the ground in the blink of an eye. Their bodies
were left charred and black as soot.
This led them to remain in a stalemate for a few hours. Suppressed by the power of the nine spiritual
races and the joint efforts of the several thousand spiritual race members, the Demonic Thunder Tiger
was soon covered in bruises all over and was badly mutilated. However, it continued to fight back.
Soon many more spiritual race members were killed.
Suddenly, the beast let out another deafening roar. The sky filled with ominous-looking thunder clouds
and lightning flashed. Without warning, a huge thunder column fell from the sky and directly hit the
beast. Its body began to grow bigger and its wounds quickly healed until it fully recovered. It was back
to its original state as if it was never hurt in the first place.
Then the beast's body began to light up. The next moment, it swiftly bolted at an astonishing speed and
a thundering force similar to a raging wave swept around it.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Within a few hundred meters, multiple thunder explosions continuously erupted and killed many of the
spiritual race members before they could try to dodge.
Those who wielded the nine spiritual treasures, including Rocky, were also hit. To prevent themselves
from being injured even further, they had to stop releasing the power of the spiritual treasures and
retreat quickly.
Once the power of the nine spiritual treasures disappeared, the Demonic Thunder Tiger's aura instantly
rose and began to kill thousands of the spiritual race members that besieged it. In the blink of an eye,
numerous spiritual race members met their demise at the hands of the beast's terrible thunder power.
Afterwards, the beast opened its mouth wide. Like a cannonball, lighting shot out of it and headed
straight towards those who held the nine spiritual treasures. This prevented them from getting any
closer to the beast.
Despite the enormous number of the spiritual race army, the Demonic Thunder Tiger's power was still
too difficult to resist. Left and right, thousands of the injured were mixed with the dead. The number of
casualties began to increase at a rapid speed as well.
Many members of the spiritual race army were scared to death and fled in all directions.
"If this continues, we'll all be killed, Patriarch Townsend," the patriarch of the Ghost Master Clan told
Townsend, his expression now full of concern.
"Why don't we retreat now? It appears we've underestimated the power of this calamity beast!" the
patriarch of the Giants Clan exclaimed immediately.
"If we retreat now, all our efforts will be in vain!" Jill countered.
"Maybe there's another way," the patriarch of the Wood Clan proposed.
