The phantasmal shadow of the ancient bell emitted a pressure that made all the beasts in Kunlun Mountain feel as if they were being crushed by a small mountain. They were overwhelmed, crumbling to the ground, eyes full of endless fear, howling in misery.

In contrast to the less powerful beasts within Kunlun Mountain, the humans and a number of Demon Kings on the platform could still withstand the pressure.

It just felt like a massive weight on their bodies, causing some discomfort.

However, at this moment, none paid attention to the pressure; all humans and Demon Kings performed the same action, raising their heads to gaze at the phantasmal shadow of the ancient bell atop the mountain peak.

Many of the people and Demon Kings had greed in their eyes.

Just by looking at the phantasmal shadow of the ancient bell, they knew how powerful this Spirit Treasure emerging this time was.

Having a Spirit Treasure would skyrocket one's combat power, potentially even allowing them to challenge those of higher ranks. Who wouldn't want such an extraordinary item?

"This Spirit Treasure is no ordinary item. If I, the Ox Demon King, could get my hands on it, what would I have to fear from that accursed Black Demon Tiger? By then, I will reclaim all the humiliation suffered today!"

The Ox Demon King gazed at the phantasmal ancient bell with his huge bull eyes, letting his imagination run wild, a slight smile on his lips, delight filling his heart.

He bore the insult from the Black Demon Tiger in mind, hoping this Spirit Treasure would be his ticket to revenge.

"This ancient bell Spirit Treasure is undoubtedly of a high grade, far beyond the beginner or intermediate levels, and it mustn't fall into the hands of beasts, or the consequences would be disastrous... Willow God, when will you arrive?"

At the forefront of the crowd, the young Sword Immortal stared at the phantasmal shadow of the ancient bell, initially showing a look of shock in his eyes.

Soon after, concern crept into his heart; if this Spirit Treasure were taken by beasts, it would be terrible news for the Great Qin Empire.

Especially with the Black Demon Tiger present, whose strength was formidable and most likely among the parties involved to acquire this Treasure.

If the ancient bell Spirit Treasure were indeed seized by the Black Demon Tiger, it would certainly spell disaster for the Great Qin Empire, given the animosity the creature harbored against them, the Empire's future would be worrisome.

In the young Sword Immortal's view, only with Willow God's intervention could the Black Demon Tiger be obstructed and the Spirit Treasure be retrieved. Although she had already heard from Dean Lin that Willow God agreed to intervene, the silence she received so far caused unease.

"Amitabha, blessed be the Buddha for this gift, the humble monk is delighted to accept it!"

The overweight monk, whose eyes were usually squinted, now widened them, filled with excitement. His chubby cheeks bunched into several layers with his grin.

"If this humble Daoist could obtain the bestowed treasure, that bald donkey beside me would surely no longer be my opponent. The Black Demon Tiger would fall under my hand, and the path to becoming an immortal would definitely be much smoother.

In the future, with me and this Spirit Treasure overseeing Wudang Mountain, my Daoist legacy will surely flourish, eventually becoming a Daoist Holy Land!

The Blind Daoist thought of the gluttonous monk, his long-time adversary, as well as the covetous Black Demon Tiger, his heart surged with longing for this Spirit Treasure's appearance.

At this moment, an eerie silence enveloped the entire platform.

Standing next to Fang Yuan all along, without any movement, Nangong Luo looked at the humans and Demon Kings, showing a hint of disdain, "With my elder brother here, how could this Donghuang Bell possibly fall into your hands!"

Jiang Che, hidden in the air, couldn't tear his eyes away after the first glance at the ancient bell, "This Spirit Treasure is meant for me! Anyone who dares to snatch it shall face severe consequences!"

Just disturbed, Fang Yuan was now observing the phantasmal shadow of the ancient bell floating within the purple light pillar attentively, his gaze suspicious, then suddenly brightened as if he comprehended something, filled with immense excitement.

Could this possibly be the legendary Donghuang Bell?

The phantasmal shadow of the ancient bell displayed a mighty and ancient appearance, surrounded by a mysterious, profound aura, with endless mysterious light gliding over its surface like vibrant light snakes entwining and moving continuously.

Above the bell's body, it was cast with emblems of the sun, moon, and stars, the sun like a wheel emitting a golden light, the cold moon like a disc radiating a serene glow, with stars glittering, forming various stellar maps.

The lower portion of the bell was cast with mountains, rivers, seas, and all living creatures, mountains stretching endlessly, rivers winding gracefully, the sea roiling with waves, and all creatures brimming with vitality.

No wonder Fang Yuan speculated so; this ancient bell's appearance was remarkably similar to the Donghuang Bell that he understood.

Although Fang Yuan couldn't be entirely certain, he felt about seventy to eighty percent confident.

"If I can get this Donghuang Bell, my power as the Demon Monarch can even surpass my elder brother's!"

Fang Yuan's eyes filled with greed, for this was the Donghuang Bell; having it would greatly augment his combat power, allowing him to confront his elder brother head-on with fifth-tier strength.

Dong!

Just then, a deafening bell sound rang out, causing Kunlun Mountain to shake violently.

The sudden change jolted the Demon Kings and the people of the Great Qin Empire back to reality, each looking excitedly at the vortex.

They all sensed that the source of the vibration and the bell sound came from the vortex; it's highly likely the Spirit Treasure is about to appear.

Afterward, regardless of whether it was the humans' side or the Demon Kings, they seemed to realize who their biggest opponent was for this occasion. Thus, they all gazed cautiously at Fang Yuan and Nangong Luo.

These two were definitely the most likely to seize the Spirit Treasure, yet there was only one, and they wanted it too.

So, the most crucial aspect now was to restrain the Black Demon Tiger and the Golden Tiger tightly when the Spirit Treasure made its appearance.

Even though both sides regarded them as their foremost opponents, Fang Yuan essentially didn't care, merely waiting quietly for the moment when the Spirit Treasure emerged.

In the end, everything would come down to strength, and the rest was just a bunch of petty fools.

Beside him, Nangong Luo, seeing this, shook her head disdainfully.

These humans and beasts still considered her and the second brother as their main rivals. Little did they know there was another lurking in the shadows, ready to act at the opportune moment!

If it weren't for her elder brother's presence, this time, if both she and Fang Yuan were delayed even briefly by both parties, the Spirit Treasure might indeed have gone to the lurking ambusher.

With time passing, the radiant pillar that shot out from the vortex and pierced the sky began to dim, and the phantasmal shadow of the ancient bell fluctuating within it suddenly dissipated.

Soon, the purple light pillar extinguished.

Instantly, the entire peak shook wildly, with resonant bell tones emanating continuously from the vortex, causing all low-tier beasts in Kunlun Mountain to pass out from the shock.

The people on the platform representing the Great Qin Empire, and the Demon Kings, didn't fare well either. The continuous bell tones made their eardrums feel like exploding, making them dizzy and disoriented.
