Xie Zhou didn't bother with the system's nonsense and just wanted to hurry over to the Sword Sect.
Meanwhile, the elders of the various sects on the outskirts of the Monster Mountain Range had not gone far. After arranging for their disciples to evacuate the residents within the Monster Mountain Range area as quickly as possible, they left.
Although some of these elders suffered heavy casualties while facing the Black Tide, how could such a great sect be without anyone? So these elders immediately took the lead and quickly gathered the senior veterans from various sects.
They need to set up a barrier around the outermost edge of the monster mountain range, leaving no space for the monster god to break through the barrier and escape. At that time, more innocent people will sacrifice their lives. Regardless of the circumstances, each sect leader will definitely step forward in the face of danger, as this is their duty.
Those elders, including some immortals with snow-white hair and graying locks, formed hand seals and placed magical artifacts of the same attribute from various families together in several corners around the Monster Mountain Range. The magic array barrier was about to begin. The magical artifacts flew to the top of the Monster Mountain Range and surrounded it, continuously condensing a barrier from above the Monster Mountain Range around its center point.
The elders remained silent, focusing intently on their task. After all, condensing the barrier was a laborious, time-consuming, and strenuous process. The Monster Mountain Range was neither too large nor too small, and no corner could be overlooked. Otherwise, the Beast God might escape, and the consequences of that escape would be unbearable for them. Human resources were limited, and they could not adequately protect all the people on the entire continent.
Not long after they returned, they were already extremely anxious. Several important figures from the sect finally came up with this delaying tactic. After all, how could they possibly subdue the power of the Beast God? They were unaware of the ancient sealing formation and had long since lost it. If they wanted to trace its origins, they probably wouldn't be able to find even a single word about it. Even the records in books only mentioned it briefly.
Therefore, it was impossible for them to completely restore the sealing formation in such a short time. So they had no choice but to join forces and use the power of magical artifacts to create a barrier to trap the Beast God here.
The elders worked together to create a barrier that kept the Beast God at bay in the Monster Mountain Range.
However, Xie Zhou was unaware of this. At this moment, under the guidance of the system, she quickly found the traces of the Beast God. She saw several rows of very neat footprints and faint bloodstains on the ground in front of her. The blood had not yet dried, so she could tell from this that the Beast God had just passed through this place.
It seemed she wasn't far from her, so she increased her speed once more, moving nimbly and rushing forward in a few strides. She noticed more and more tracks on the ground, proving that the Beast God was not far away.
At this moment, the barrier that had been gathering in mid-air began to slowly unite. In no time, the entire Monster Mountain Range would be completely blocked off. In order to prevent the barrier from being broken, the elders not only guarded the outer perimeter of the Monster Mountain Range, but also continuously supplied magic power to the magic artifacts to strengthen the barrier.
Xie Zhou then chased after her from behind. In the dim light, she seemed to see the shadow of the Beast God—his tail!
It disappeared into the grass in the distance in an instant, and it seemed to be not far away. Xie Zhou began to slowly weaken his aura until it was completely concealed. Then he crouched down and carefully walked in that direction. The Beast God was seriously injured, and it was unknown how he had managed to escape from her clutches.
The Beast God must have expended a lot of energy, so it probably couldn't have gone far. Seeing the rustling in the grass, Xie Zhou cautiously approached the grass, preparing to catch it off guard. She threw a talisman at the spot, but unexpectedly heard a strange cry.
Xie Zhou went to check, only to find it was a rabbit. She had made a mistake earlier, but she couldn't possibly have mistaken the tail. How could it suddenly turn into a rabbit? Could it really be that she was seeing things?
She was quite puzzled, so after releasing the rabbit, she continued to use her spiritual power to investigate everything around her, and finally discovered some clues about the Beast God.
"Great, it won't escape my grasp."
The Beast God had actually sensed this, so it tried to use its secret technique to teleport itself out, but it found that it was blocked by some kind of force. It couldn't leave the Monster Mountain Range at all. So far, it could only engage in a chase with Xie Zhou. The distance between them was very short, so the monster had to be especially careful and not give itself away.
As that familiar aura drew ever closer, after all, the number of magical beasts in the Monster Mountain Range had decreased considerably, making the entire mountain range seem rather desolate. Most of them had been almost completely devoured by it, so its own strength had increased quite a bit along the way. However, the biggest hidden danger was right behind it, chasing after it, and it had to find a way to lure it away.
So at this time, the Beast God came up with a plan, a plan that went against the grain. If it deliberately lured her to a place and then used its secret technique to force it onto her, teleporting her to the southeast of the Monster Mountain Range, which was very far away from it, then she would not be able to find it easily.
Even using light footwork or magic would take some time, so the monster planned to use its innate supernatural power to pull Xie Zhou into the battlefield of the other dimension.
The teleportation is just the beginning; the main purpose is to open up another dimension. Once the Beast God inserts his consciousness into it, another dimension will be opened, and it will be able to open the ancient battlefield where the gods and demons fought. After all, there is so much resentment that cannot be resolved there, and it must be starving long ago, wishing for a living thing to enter.
Moreover, she possesses a blood aura with extremely strong corrosive power. Based on these two points alone, the Beast God refused to believe that he could not restrain her.
The plan is already taking shape, so let's implement it quickly and not delay for long. It needs a lot of power to open up other dimensions, so it must quickly create one at the critical moment to attract her. That way, it can use the power in the space and probably survive.
Unbeknownst to Xie Zhou, she was now able to sense the aura of the Beast God more clearly. She didn't know why, but why its aura was becoming increasingly obvious. She was able to detect these things quickly, without even using her spiritual power.
