However, when Lin Fan saw the figures in the void, he let out a sigh of relief.
“It turns out I was just overthinking. I knew it. How could those idiotic supreme beings find me when I’ve hidden myself so deeply?”
Still, these fellows were quite reckless. This place was under the protection of the Pangu God, yet they dared to cause trouble here. Didn’t they fear being killed?
“Master, those seem to be the Bat Clan. What are they doing?” Yang Wantian gazed into the void, puzzled.
“It’s none of our concern. Someone else will handle it,” Lin Fan replied calmly.
Yang Wantian nodded and busied himself with his tasks.
At this moment, the citizens of Litian City were staring at the sky in terror, unaware of what was happening.
The entire city was shrouded in a blood-red light barrier.
Especially chilling were the eerie, cackling laughs echoing from above, making the people feel as if countless demons were swirling around their ears.
The four bat-clan figures in the void looked down at the panicked citizens of Litian City and burst into laughter.
“Their bloodline is ours for the taking. We’ve waited a long time to destroy Litian City’s protective formation,” said one bat-clan being with blood-red eyes.
“The Blood Sea Formation granted by our Ancestor truly is powerful. Once we refine all the living beings here, we can extract Saint-grade Divine Blood, making our powers even greater.”
The Blood Sea Formation worked by refining living beings and extracting their bloodline essence. The bat clan’s cultivation method revolved around seizing others’ achievements.
Originally, Litian City had a defensive formation set up by a supreme being, but the bat clan, equipped with the Blood Sea Formation granted by their Ancestor, managed to wear down and destroy the protective barrier.
Now, the people of Litian City were like fish in a barrel, ready to be refined at any moment.
Seeing this dire situation, countless cultivators in Litian City naturally refused to surrender, but the oppressive, bloodthirsty aura descending from the void crushed their spirits.
In the imperial palace.
Boom!
Several figures shot into the sky.
The palace guardians wore serious expressions. “Bat Clan! We’ve had no quarrel with you. What are you trying to accomplish here?”
These guardians were originally from Litian City, had gone out to cultivate, and upon reaching high cultivation levels, returned to serve the imperial palace, becoming protectors who stood above all others.
Though they didn’t fully understand the current situation, they knew it couldn’t be anything good.
In the past, Litian City had faced some attacks, but those were decades ago. Since then, there had been no disturbances. Yet today’s events felt ominous.
They didn’t know who had set up Litian City’s defensive formation, but it was incredibly effective, capable of blocking all external threats.
Yet now, they found that the protective formation had been destroyed and was completely inoperative.
“Your Majesty, these despicable Bat Clan members dare to provoke us in Litian City. Allow me to go up and confront them,” the eldest prince said angrily.
“Come back. Stand aside.”
The emperor’s expression was grave. The current situation was far from ordinary.
“Jiejie! A race without the protection of a supreme being has only one fate—death. It’s your honor to have your bloodline taken for our cultivation,” screeched one bat-clan member with a shrill voice.
“Reverse the formation!”
Boom!
The four bat-clan beings suddenly roared, channeling mysterious magical energy into the formation. In an instant, the blood-red light curtain covering Litian City began to flow like water.
The sinister, arcane runes flashed ominously.
A chilling, terrifying pressure erupted forth, pressing down on the citizens like a mountain.
“Enough!”
Unable to bear it any longer, the guardians launched an attack. They could already sense the formation’s aura, which contained a refining force.
It felt as though it were reaching into their very beings, attempting to extract their bloodlines.
Just as the guardians attacked, several blood-red beams suddenly erupted from within the city.
“Jiejie! Any resistance is futile.”
The guardians were shocked to discover hidden members of the Bat Clan within the city itself.
…
“It seems the experts in the imperial palace are struggling,” Lin Fan, Yang Wantian, and his son watched the battle in the sky like spectators at a show.
“Master, the Bat Clan clearly came prepared. Though the guardians are powerful, they seem to be suppressed by this blood formation,” Yang Wantian observed.
“Yes, this formation greatly suppresses your bloodline powers. I didn’t expect the Bat Clan to possess such abilities,” Lin Fan said.
What puzzled Lin Fan, however, was why the Pangu God hadn’t appeared.
Wasn’t he supposed to be guarding his sworn brother’s descendants?
But upon reflection, the world was vast, and there were countless cities. It was impossible to protect them all.
“You insignificant insects, stop resisting. Surrender your bloodlines obediently, and perhaps we’ll spare your lives,” the Bat Clan laughed darkly.
To them, Litian City was already theirs for the taking.
“Father, are you alright?” The eldest prince quickly shielded the emperor, shocked that the palace’s many guardians couldn’t stand against these few bat-clan members.
Cough! Cough!
The emperor spat out a mouthful of blood, his face pale. He hadn’t expected the Bat Clan to be this powerful. Under the formation’s suppression, they couldn’t even unleash half their strength.
Whoosh!
The formation activated.
The ordinary citizens of Litian City cried out in agony, feeling something vital within them trying to escape their bodies.
“Right! I’ll go find that person. He must be able to help me,” the eldest prince suddenly realized and immediately ran toward the distance.
“My son, where are you going?”
“Father, I’m going to seek help from that person,” the eldest prince replied.
“Come back! This is the Bat Clan we’re dealing with. If he were willing to help, he would have acted already…” The emperor knew that if the other party were willing to intervene, they would have done so by now. Perhaps even he was wary of the Bat Clan’s supreme being.
But the eldest prince had already vanished from sight.
“Master, are you going to act now?” Yang Wantian asked.
However, when Lin Fan saw the figures in the void, he breathed a sigh of relief.
“It turns out I was overthinking it. I said it before, I’ve hidden myself so deeply, how could these idiot supreme beings possibly find me?”
But these guys are quite bold. This is the territory of the Pangu Demon God, and they dare to act recklessly here. Aren’t they afraid of being killed?
“Master, these seem to be the Bat Clan. What are they doing?” Yang Wantian looked up at the void, puzzled.
“None of our business. Someone will handle it,” Lin Fan said calmly.
Yang Wantian nodded and then busied himself.
At this moment, the residents of Litian City were staring at the void in terror, unsure of what was happening.
The entire city was enveloped by a blood-red curtain of light.
Especially the eerie laughter that echoed through the air, making them feel as if countless demons were fluttering around their ears.
At this time, the four Bat Clan members in the void looked at the panicked residents of Litian City and burst into maniacal laughter.
“The bloodline is ours for the taking. We’ve been patient for so long to destroy the protective barrier of Litian City,” one of the Bat Clan members with blood-red eyes said with a grin.
“The ‘Blood Sea Grand Array’ bestowed by our ancestor is indeed powerful. Once we refine all the living beings in Litian City, we can condense a Saint-grade divine blood. Then, our strength will become even greater.”
The ‘Blood Sea Grand Array’ is designed to refine living beings and extract their bloodlines. The cultivation method of the Bat Clan is to seize the achievements of others.
Originally, Litian City had a defensive array set up by a supreme being, but with the ‘Blood Sea Grand Array’ given by their ancestor, the Bat Clan managed to wear down the defensive array.
Now, the living beings in Litian City are like fish in a barrel, ready to be refined at any moment.
Countless cultivators in Litian City naturally wouldn’t sit idly by, but the overwhelming pressure emanating from the void, filled with a bloody aura, weighed heavily on their minds.
In the imperial city.
Boom!
Several figures shot into the sky.
The imperial city’s guardians looked grave. “Bat Clan, Litian City has never interfered with you. What is the meaning of this?”
These guardians were originally residents of Litian City who went out to train. After their cultivation improved, they returned to their homeland and joined the imperial city, becoming guardians who stood above all but one, protecting the region.
Although they didn’t know what was happening, they knew it couldn’t be anything good.
Litian City had been harassed before, but that was decades ago, and there had been no movement since. Today’s situation, however, felt ominous.
The defensive array of Litian City, left by an unknown great being, was incredibly powerful and could block any invasion.
But now, they found that the protective array had been destroyed and was no longer functional.
“Father, these despicable Bat Clan members dare to act recklessly in our Litian City. Let me go and deal with them,” the crown prince said angrily.
“Come back, stay out of this.”
The emperor looked grave. The current situation was anything but ordinary.
“Giggle, a race without the protection of a supreme being is doomed. Your Bat Clan ancestors have cultivated peerless divine abilities and need your bloodline. Consider it an honor,” one of the Bat Clan members screeched sharply.
“Reverse the array!”
Boom!
The four Bat Clan members suddenly shouted, and a mysterious force seeped into the array. In an instant, the blood-red curtain of light enveloping Litian City began to flow like water.
The mysterious, evil runes flickered incessantly.
A cold, terrifying aura erupted, pressing down on the residents of Litian City like a mountain.
“Outrageous!”
The guardians could no longer hold back and instantly took action. They could feel the aura emanating from the array, which contained a refining force.
It was as if it was communicating with their bloodlines, trying to pull them out entirely.
Just as the guardians acted, several blood-red rainbows suddenly erupted from within the city.
“Giggle, any resistance is futile now.”
The guardians were shocked. They hadn’t expected that there were still Bat Clan members hidden within the city.
…
“The experts in the imperial city seem to be struggling,” Lin Fan, Yang Wantian, and his son watched the situation in the void like it was a performance, and Lin Fan couldn’t help but comment.
“Master, the Bat Clan clearly came prepared. Although these guardians are powerful, they seem to be suppressed under this blood-red array,” Yang Wantian said.
“Indeed, this array greatly suppresses you, directly weakening your bloodline power. I didn’t expect the Bat Clan to have such abilities,” Lin Fan said.
However, what puzzled Lin Fan was why the Pangu Demon God hadn’t appeared.
Wasn’t he supposed to protect his sworn brother’s people?
But then again, the world is vast, and there are so many cities. It’s impossible to take care of everything.
“You ants, don’t resist. Let us take your bloodline, and perhaps we’ll spare your lives,” the Bat Clan members laughed darkly.
For them, Litian City was already in their grasp.
“Father, are you alright?” The crown prince immediately shielded his father. He couldn’t believe that the numerous guardians of the imperial city were no match for these few Bat Clan members.
Cough!
The emperor coughed up blood, his face pale. He too hadn’t expected the Bat Clan to be so powerful.
Under the array, they couldn’t even exert half of their strength.
Whoosh!
The array activated.
The ordinary residents of Litian City immediately screamed in agony, feeling as if something vital within them was about to burst out.
“Wait, I’ll go find that guy. He can definitely help us,” the crown prince suddenly realized and then ran off into the distance.
“My son, where are you going?”
“Father, I’m going to find that person for help,” the crown prince said.
“Come back. If he was willing to help, he would have already done so…” The emperor knew that if the other party was willing to act, he would have done so by now. Perhaps he was also wary of the Bat Clan’s supreme being.
But the crown prince’s figure had already disappeared.
“Master, are you going to act now?” Yang Wantian asked.
Now, Lin Fan had no choice but to act. He had originally thought that the imperial city’s guardians could handle this, but he hadn’t expected them to be so weak, without any ability to resist.
Regardless, the Pangu Demon God had given him something.
If he didn’t act, Litian City would likely be completely annihilated.
Just as Lin Fan was about to act, a figure rushed over from the distance with great excitement.
On the other side, another figure was also running towards them.
Lin Fan looked and couldn’t help but smile.
The crown prince, Shang Qingcheng…
It seems these two aren’t stupid. They know to come to me for help.
In that case, let them have their moment to shine.
However, Lin Fan knew that if he acted, it would be time to leave this place.
The Bat Clan ancestor’s nose is sharper than a dog’s.
After all, the Pangu God had given him something.
If he didn’t act now, Litian City might be completely destroyed.
Just as Lin Fan prepared to move, a figure came running joyfully from afar.
Meanwhile, another figure approached from a different direction.
When Lin Fan saw them, he smiled.
The eldest prince and Shang Qingcheng…
It seemed these two weren’t fools after all, realizing they needed to come find him.
Since they had come, he might as well let them show their worth.
But Lin Fan knew that if he acted, it was time to leave this place.
The Bat Clan’s Ancestor had a nose sharper than a dog’s.
