I Stepped on a Bug, and the System Says I Slayed a Dragon?

Several Celestial Venerables spread out across the sky, surrounding the Da Li Mountain Range from all directions.

The Sealing Demon Array activated, rapidly shrinking with the Beast God at its center. The mountains and rivers within receded, gradually forming a new, self-contained world.

"No, no, no!"

Inside the great Array, the Beast God was in a frenzy. He abandoned all decorum and rushed to the barrier’s edge. He smashed it with his head, pounded it with his fists, and even gnashed at it with his teeth, venting his rage like a boorish lout!

But no matter how vicious the impacts were, it was useless!

The Ten Directions Sealing Demon Array operated stably.

The Array Patterns were impregnable, and golden runes filled the air.

After withstanding the successive impacts, the Sealing Demon Array merely shifted for a moment before continuing to coalesce.

"Beast God, just accept your fate!"

Qin Yang held up two fingers, stabilizing the Sealing Demon Array. "Why continue this pointless struggle?"

「The next moment.」

HUM!

The mechanisms placed within the great Array activated!

A sudden roar of wind and thunder erupted within the Array. Violent winds and torrential rain beat down upon the Beast God’s head as raging lightning formed cages and shackles, stacking one after another inside his body.

Sword Qi, Earth Fire, thunder...

A thousand calamities descended upon him, threatening to seal him away completely.

"Don’t even think about it!"

The Beast God roared wildly inside the Array, his robes whipping about and his ink-black hair flying in disarray, revealing his truly frenzied and desperate nature.

"You think a trifling Array like this can trap me forever?!"

Under the continuous bombardment, he completely descended into madness!

He began to burn his Essence Blood, smashing violently against the Array’s edge.

Once, twice...

Hundreds of strikes landed in an instant!

Each one carried heaven-shaking, earth-shattering divine might.

But it was useless!

Even though the Beast God shattered his own fists and split his head open from the impacts, he couldn’t shake the foundation of the Ten Directions Sealing Demon Array in the slightest.

Now that he had lost the Blood Soul Banner, and with Qin Yang standing guard outside, the layers of reinforcement had long since brought the Array to an unimaginably stable state.

HUMMM—

He saw that the Array Patterns were about to close completely.

The Beast God was utterly panicked!

If he were sealed again, it would mean another several hundred, or even a thousand, years!

He couldn’t afford to wait!

"Qin Yang, must you be so ruthless?"

The Beast God’s tone softened. He struggled to suppress the fire of rage in his chest as he looked at Qin Yang outside the array and called out:

"How about this... I swear I will never cause you trouble again."

"Let’s just end things here. We can stay out of each other’s way. I will never come to Jianghai City again."

"And if you let me out, I’m even willing to be your slave for ten years!"

The words had barely left his mouth.

"Stay out of each other’s way?"

Hearing this, Qin Yang couldn’t help but laugh, the mockery in his eyes deepening. "You really are something, Beast God. To think you’ve lived for over a thousand years and are still so naive."

"’Stay out of each other’s way?’ I think what you really mean is, after you escape, you’ll just go find someone else’s way to get in, won’t you?!"

At this, Qin Yang’s expression turned cold. "An old monster who’s lived for so long shouldn’t be playing tricks on a young man like me."

Just thinking about the Beast God’s evil deeds was enough to incite the wrath of both gods and men!

The endless slaughter of cities—this was a stain the Beast God could never wash away!

If it weren’t for how abnormally potent his Blood Sea Domain was,

Qin Yang would have loved nothing more than to personally cleave his skull and make him pay for the lives of the innocent souls in the Underworld!

HUMMM—

The air trembled, and the speed at which the Array was closing increased.

Where the golden light shone, everything within the circle was shrinking and being drawn in. The Laws inside were severed, gradually forming a region distinct from the outside world.

Seeing the Array Patterns contracting faster and faster, the Beast God’s expression grew even more panicked.

"Qin Yang, don’t force my hand!"

He roared hoarsely at the space outside the Array: "Don’t think I don’t have other Dharma Gates for escaping!"

As he spoke, the Star Force in his body erupted violently. A bloody mist burrowed under his skin, causing it to swell and bulge like a balloon.

His surging aura was terrifying, his eyes bulged, and he looked as horrifying as an Asura Evil Ghost.

"Other ways to escape?!"

Hearing this, Qin Yang was neither surprised nor afraid. He mercilessly called his bluff, "Who the hell are you trying to fool? If you’ve got the guts, then self-destruct!"

Without the Blood Soul Banner and his other aids,

’I really have nothing to fear from him!’

’This Beast God must be sealed today. No one can stop it!’

As Qin Yang’s words fell,

the Beast God’s face froze instantly.

’Self-destruct?’

Although he was seemingly immortal, able to revive at any time as long as his Blood Sea Domain was active,

the problem was that self-destruction and simply dying were completely different concepts!

Self-destruction didn’t just harm the physical body; it was a final, desperate counterattack launched at the cost of one’s foundational Divine Sense.

It meant the complete annihilation of both body and soul, erased from the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

’Unless I’m truly forced into a corner, I would never want to resort to detonating my own foundation.’

’There’s no need for an act that costs me as much as it costs the enemy!’

On the other hand, while being sealed meant being trapped, the advantage was that he would still be alive. With enough time, there would eventually be a chance to escape!

Even if it was just a sliver of hope, as long as he seized the opportunity, escape wasn’t impossible!

At this thought, hesitation appeared on the Beast God’s face, and the terrifying aura he emitted dissipated slightly.

"You don’t dare, do you?"

Qin Yang watched his hesitant expression, the smile on his lips widening. "Then shut your mouth and stay quietly inside the Array!"

"Converge!"

The moment he spoke, the golden runes contracted by another hundred feet!

It ate away at the Beast God’s room to move, bit by bit.

"You!"

The Beast God, trapped in the Array, was furious. He wanted to curse Qin Yang, but in the end, he could only slump his shoulders in helplessness. As the fish on the chopping block, he had no room to resist.

But he was still unwilling to accept his fate and continued trying to persuade Qin Yang.

"Qin Yang, does it have to be this absolute? If you spare me, I will reward you handsomely!"

"Upper Realm Cultivation Techniques, Spiritual Artifacts, even the secret to ascension... everything is negotiable."

At this, he walked to the edge of the Sealing Demon Array, looked through the Golden Radiance Array Curtain at Qin Yang, who was controlling the Array, and said: "Don’t you want to break through beyond the Celestial Venerable Realm? I can also do everything in my power to help you advance!"

"And also..."

"That’s enough!"

Qin Yang cleaned out his ear, saying dismissively, "Stop making empty promises. You talk way too much!"

As his voice fell,

Qin Yang pressed down with his palm. Golden Lotuses bloomed one after another, bringing down an immense and ancient punishment.

"You just wait! Qin Yang!!!"

The Beast God looked at the contracting walls of the Array around him and roared in defiance—

"Whether it takes a hundred years or a thousand, as long as I get out, I will definitely feast on your blood!"

"I’ll make all your descendants, for generations to come, my sla—"

But before he could finish his words,

BOOM!

The palm’s pressure had arrived!

From all directions came the chanting of ancient, profound testaments. Qin Yang looked down from the clouds, observing everything like the supreme Celestial Dao itself. The runes pressed down, forging a pure, glass-like land within the Ten Directions Array.

As the profound array lines closed completely, a golden light spread out, blessing the mortal world.

The seal was finally complete!
