Under the joint attack of the group, the Evil Beast finally could no longer hold out, its massive body crashing to the ground and kicking up a cloud of dust. As the Evil Beast's aura dissipated, the crisis was temporarily averted. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, though fatigue was clearly visible on their faces.
Lin Feng knew full well that although they had repelled the Evil Beast this time, everyone had consumed a massive amount of Spiritual Power, and their reserves of Spirit Crystals were severely depleted. Should they encounter another formidable enemy now, it would likely be difficult to cope. Besides, they had already gotten their hands on the Demon God Heart, thus achieving their goal. Consequently, the group decided to return temporarily to the Nangong Ao City Lord's Mansion to rest and recuperate.
Meanwhile, in every corner of the continent, the high-level figures of the Eight Great Sects—the Tianji Palace, Huanyin Palace, Wuliang Sect, Tianjian Pavilion, Ziyang Sect, Tianxuan Sect, Huoshen Sect, and Seven Treasures Glazed Sect—all sensed the powerful Spiritual Power fluctuations triggered by the emergence of the Demon God Heart. They understood deeply that this matter concerned the safety of the entire Spirit Illusion Continent; once the Demon Race and the Shadow Sect obtained the Demon God Heart, the consequences would be unthinkable.
