Reverend Ecstasy by Devil_Paragon

Unstoppable (Part 2)
"No…nononono! Impossible!" Zhiji Jing couldn't guess Xinzi's bloodline or abilities, but connected to her troops through the Scattered Energy Fusion, she could feel each mysterious beast that Xinzi's Qi impacted detach itself from the formation and turn…into a demon!

Yes, following this one move from Xinzi, all Myriad Beast Gang members under Holy Beast Sovereign rank became fiery balls of Evil Qi, morphing under the eyes of the Dongli state's experts to become a horde of 200 million Heart Demons!

Wrath Heart Demons, Lust Heart Demons, Greed Heart Demons, Gluttony, Vanity, and Withdrawal Heart Demons, which ever of Xinzi's prevalent sins appealed to them the most became the essence of their new demonic form.

From seductive human forms to grotesque horror shapes, demonic transformation succeeded one another as the 3rd and 29th Horde vanished, becoming loyal demon soldiers devoted to Xinzi and the Liberation Temple.

Exacerbating the sins and evil locked in the heart of the targets and forcing them to turn into demons loyal to the caster, this was the most terrifying ability of the Sinshifter, a bloodline reserved for the strongest lieutenants of Lord Sheitan. But even for a Sinshifter, the Sinshifting innate skill wouldn't reach such a horrifying level if not for Xinzi's Hell Suppressing Immortal Pulse.

Faced with the combination of innate skill and pulse, all the animosity that the Myriad Beast Gang's troops kept bottled up became a weapon that Xinzi could effortlessly manipulate to turn them all into his goons. Now, only Zhiji Jing, Xiao Hu and the squad of Holy Beast Sovereigns stayed behind - last remnants of the troops dispatched to the Nameless Sword Mountain.

The 200 million demons turned into clouds of dark mist, leaving Zhiji Jing to stand behind their new master - behind Xinzi. To say nothing of Zhiji Jing, Xiao Hu, Haoyue, Zuixian and the rest, even the Liberation Temple's experts and gals couldn't believe their eyes, all trembling at the supremely diabolic feat they just witnessed.

"Now, I'm going to do you a favor and repeat myself. I have no time for mini-bosses and am not here to carry out a slaughter. Why kill when you can subjugate? Why ruin when you can build something infinitely greater? You have my thanks for providing me with a much-needed branch of demon troops. In my quest to liberate all lives, it is important that I can show my devotees that mortal, holy, divine and infernal can all share the same bread.

Thank you, Zhiji Jing, for this grand contribution. But as I've said before, you're just a side character, and until you improve that status, you do not have the qualifications to seek an epic battle with My Humble Self," Xinzi said, and with another leisurely step forward, appeared before Zhiji Jing.

"Leave and tell Daji that the Nameless Sword Mountain is under my protection and, that if she wants to destroy it, she has to go through me." The 24 Holy Beast Sovereigns all stood in monster form, mountain-sized creatures that individually dwarfed towns and cities.

Yet, faced with the two-meters tall Xinzi, they all seemed tiny, like an insignificant pack of worms desperate to challenge a giant. Zhiji Jing had lost her breath, shaking and trembling like a feather blown left and right by a raging storm.

"W-who…are you?"

"Abbot Xinzi, of the Liberation Temple,"
Xinzi said and walked past Zhiji Jing. Upon hearing that name, her knees buckled, and she fell to the ground. How could Zhiji Jing not know the name of the person that Daji had been chasing for so long? The so-called Zhen of the Night Pantheon? Daji had collected all the information that she could, and knew that behind the disguise of a White Immortal Sect disciple, Xinzi or Zhen was also a giant of the Eternal Night Dynasty:

A God!

Or at least, this was Daji's belief. A belief shared by Zhiji Jing and reinforced by Xiao Hu's reaction at the mere mention of that name. Now, Zhiji Jing finally realized Why Xiao Hu had lost her composure Upon seeing that monk. Even if she couldn't put a name on it, her body and soul had recognized the face.

"Hateful! Do you think you can just walk away after what you've done to our brothers and sisters? Don't underestimate the Myriad Beast Gang!"

But while Zhiji Jing realized that the Myriad Beast Gang had kicked a sheet of iron, the same didn't apply to the 24 Beast Sovereigns, who all refused to accept the disastrous defeat that they'd just suffered.

In tandem, they lunged at Xinzi, sharing their various innate skills through the Scattered Energy Fusion to multiply their battle prowess.

"No, idiots, stop!" Aware that they were outmatched, Zhiji Jing tried to stop her subordinates, but couldn't prevent the murderous fire in their eyes from taking over and piloting their bodies.

"Can't say I didn't warn you," Xinzi said, and without turning to face the 24 Beast Sovereigns, clenched his fists, pulling in a deep breath. The Heavenly Dao kicked in, bringing all the laws of the mortal Fusion to fire murderous blasts at Xinzi.

"The Great Dao…is heartless."

Moving faster than Zhiji Jing at her best, Xinzi slammed his right knee straight into the face of a colossal White Tiger. The White Tiger's skull ruptured, his head exploded into blood and gore, and by the time his hefty body had collapsed on the ground, his soul and monster core had flown out - vanishing in Xinzi's chest.

A duo of ape and lion appeared at Xinzi's left and right, hurling their herculean fists and claws at his comparatively tiny body. Holy Force, Divine Power, masked Evil Qi, Blood Energy, the Immortal Golden Dragon Physique, Eternal Dragon Monster Core, and all five Demon Hearts kicked in at the same time, bringing the might of Xinzi's fleshly body to absurd levels of dominance. Misty white force followed his breathing patterns, going in and out of his mouth and nostrils as the Dao Breath operated, adding to his explosive power. Xinzi stretched his hands out, blocking colossal fists and claws with two indexes.

"AAAAAAARGH!" The Naga bloodline kicked in, producing an irresistible poison that burned lion and ape till not even their bones remained. Monster Cores and souls once more fed Xinzi's growth. But as the surviving 21 assailants realized that they were biting far more than they could chew, Xinzi had lost interest in mercy - turning
into a hurricane of brutality that ravaged the Beast Sovereigns' ranks. Formless and odorless poison pervaded the air, filling the Beast Soveireigns' bodies, and reducing their battle prowess to zero.

"AAARGH! STOP IT! I…BEG…AAAAAAAAAARGH!" All squirmed and squealed on the ground, crippled by excruciating jolts of pain that made acid-on-face feel like a pat on the head.
"As you wish," Xinzi said, and one after the other, stomped the Beast Sovereigns to death. By the time the 13th had fallen, Xiao Hu stopped her melody, causing the remaining 11th Beast Sovereigns to return to Holy Beast King tier.

"Ximei why…why did you do that?!"
Confused and terror-stricken, Zhiji Jing barked at Xiao Hu. But once she saw the hopeless terror in her sister's eyes, she realized the why.

"Maybe…if they return to Holy Beast King…he will subjugate them instead of stomping them to death," the pipa
demoness whispered. She wasn't in correct. Xinzi stretched his hand out, manipulating the grief, agony and negativity to turn the 11 surviving 3rd Horde leaders into demons loyal only to him.

"Is this really…you? No, impossible, it has to be a clone." Shui Haoyue couldn't believe her eyes. Not just because of the power, but the attitude that Xinzi displayed.

Although his moves seemed to follow certain principles, although divine and holy forces undulated his form, there wasn't a single person on the scene that didn't see in the current Xinzi the incarnation of a rampaging monster. Now, only Xiao Hu and Zhiji Jing stayed behind. Coerced by his aura, both failed to stay on their feet, struggling to breathe and look him in the eye.

"I gave you a way out. I said that I wasn't here for slaughter. Why did you have to force my hand? Now, I'm angry…" Xinzi said and reached for Zhiji Jing's neck. Irresistible suction forces kicked in, making the Holy Beast Sovereign fly into Xinzi's hand.

"So tell me, little peacock, why should I spare you?" Xinzi rhetorically asked and squeezed Zhiji Jing's neck.

"Ugh…ugh!!!" Unable to speak or breathe, Zhiji Jing gasped for air. The squeezing tightened, and if nothing changed, it wouldn't be long before Xinzi broke the peacock's neck.

"S-stop…Xinzi, stop!" Tapping in the full depths of her willpower, Xiao Hu barked, causing Xinzi's attention to shift from Zhiji Jing and lock on her.

"Oh, you can say my name now? Interesting. But why should I stop? Who are you to me that I should spare her for you?" This time, Xinzi asked in a serious tone. His grip on Zhiji Jing's neck intensified. Even when she vagabonded across the Eastern Continent, going from peacock to pheasant while avoiding relentless hunts, Zhiji Jing had never been as terrified as she was at this instant.

Her life, everything from her birth till now, flashed before her eyes, perhaps an attempt of her brain to find a way out from this hopeless situation.
But as Zhiji Jing could see the specter of death extend its arms at her, a radiant yellow beam raced down the sky, slamming into Xinzi in an earth-shaking explosion.

"If you won't stop, I will make you." The gargantuan figure of the Yellow Dragon
appeared in the sky, marking the arrival of Bai Daji…
