Lin Dan is bound to an auxiliary system. She does tasks to maintain the plot of countless small worlds. Simply put, she is just a supporting role or cannon fodder, a stepping stone for others to ac...
Lin Dan stood on the beam and looked down, frowning deeply. Rather than a secret room, it was more like a pool of blood. The bright red blood seemed to have been heated and was bubbling with bubbles. The extremely strong smell of blood was nauseating. Next to the blood pool was a huge stone mill. Several warriors in red were tinkering with iron shovels in the grinding trough. After a while, they dug out many bones and hair.
After cleaning the grinding groove, a warrior said, "Have the medicine guides been delivered? The city lord can't wait any longer!"
"It's been delivered, it's been delivered, I'll get it." Two warriors ran out quickly, and after a while they came back carrying a wooden basin. Lin Dan took a closer look and a fierce light flashed in his eyes. I saw that the wooden basin was full of fetuses, crowded together in a large group, looking like wriggling maggots.
The leading warrior walked to the basin and frowned, "Why are there only so many? There are not enough medicines for today. What if the city lord blames us?"
"The Human and Animal Palace is full of old stuff, and their production capacity is getting worse and worse. They have no other choice. How about asking the Black Palace to capture some more human beings and bring them back, and then notify the people in the city to hand in more medicine leads, increasing from one per year to three per year? How do you do that?"
"Three a year is not enough. The city lord is on the verge of a breakthrough, and he needs more and more medicinal leads. Pick out the dead medicinal leads to avoid polluting the blood pool. Clean up this side, and you throw the medicinal leads in." The red-clothed warrior said, pointing to the huge stone mill.
"Okay, if you have something to do, go ahead. I'll be watching here."
The conversation between the two contained a huge amount of information, and even the heartless Lin Dan couldn't help but get angry after listening to it. It turns out that the children born to the women in the dungeon were sent here, then put into a stone mill and ground into plasma, which was then introduced into this pool of blood, allowing the Lord of the Eternal City to practice evil skills. How cruel is this?
She gripped the Shura Knife tightly and slowly leaned down, like a ferocious beast waiting to devour its prey. Bai Yan, who was standing opposite her, had a frown on his face and a cold look in his eyes. However, the warriors in red were completely unaware and were picking out the dead babies from the wooden basin and throwing them aside.
The remaining baby was just born and was still breathing. His purple hands and feet were trembling slightly, and he was crying his last. Lin Dan had already lowered his body very low, and with just a tap of his toes he could fly down and kill all these crazy demons. At this moment, a stone door at the edge of the blood pool suddenly opened, and two maids lifted the gauze curtain and slowly walked in, supporting a beautiful woman.
"Greetings, City Lord." The warriors in red knelt down one after another.
"Get up, are the medicines for today ready?" The woman took off her clothes and walked into the blood pool.
"Your Excellency the City Lord, there is still a little bit missing. I will prepare it right away." The warrior in red said tremblingly.
"What time is it now? Why don't you go quickly!" The woman's expression of enjoyment was immediately replaced by a ferocious one. She opened her five fingers slightly and actually took a baby in the wooden basin into her palm and placed it to her lips, as if she wanted to eat the baby's flesh alive and drink its blood.
Seeing this, Lin Dan could no longer hold back. He kicked his toes and attacked the woman, the Shura Sword in his hand flashing a dazzling light.
Bai Yan wanted to find out the woman's skills and background, so when she took the baby into her palm, although he felt reluctant, he did not move in the end. But he never expected that Lin Dan couldn't wait even a moment and killed him in the blink of an eye.
The woman’s martial arts skills were not weak. After noticing the unusual noise, she quickly jumped out of the blood pool and slapped the boiling blood with one palm, creating a layer of blood wave, trying to block Lin Dan’s attack. Lin Dan split the blood wave and walked straight forward, making a fake move of chopping and killing, forcing the woman to drop the baby in her hand. Then he leaped up, hugged the baby who was thrown high into the air, and tore off a piece of gauze curtain to wrap it.
"Who are you?" The woman slapped out several times in succession, but Lin Dan avoided them all. Only then did he realize that the other party was actually a half-step master, whose skills were comparable to his own. She quickly put on her clothes, then took out a pill from her secret bag and swallowed it. Her already powerful aura suddenly surged, and her palms also faintly glowed with black light.
"Be careful of her poisonous palm." Bai Yan, who was standing on the beam watching the fight, reminded.
The woman then discovered that there was another person in the secret room. She was shocked and horrified, and her attacks became more fierce. She was good at using poison. All the red-clothed warriors who were swept by her palm wind turned into a pool of black blood, and even their bones could not be found in an instant. Although Lin Dan was not afraid of poison, if she was corroded by toxins and lost an arm or a leg, her life force could heal the wound and eliminate the toxins, but it would not allow her to grow new limbs out of thin air, not to mention that she was holding a newborn baby with a weak breath in her arms. She was completely unable to perform her sword skills and could only leap and move in the secret room to avoid the palm winds, looking extremely embarrassed.
Bai Yan always stood on the beam and never participated in the battle.
Lin Dan dodged another palm wind, held the child in her arms, and then slashed hard at the ceiling. There was a loud bang, and a big hole was split open in the secret room built of granite. A beam of white light poured down, dispelling the strong smell of blood. The woman hadn't seen the sun for a long time, so she couldn't help but shield her eyes with her arms. Lin Dan immediately seized the opportunity and jumped onto the ground, saying coldly, "Come and fight!"
The woman flew up with gritted teeth and continued to fight with her. One of them was good at using poison and was difficult to get close to; the other had powerful swordsmanship and made ruthless moves, and was adept at both long-range and close-range combat. For a while, the fight was inseparable. The battle between two half-step grandmasters was definitely not something that ordinary people could participate in. The red-clothed warriors who came upon hearing the news wanted to support their city lord, but they were beaten into pieces by poisonous palms or split in half by sword energy. As time went by, they dared not get close.
Bai Yan jumped onto the ground and found a high ground to watch.
The woman's power was still increasing rapidly, and Lin Dan gradually became less powerful in order to protect the child. Fortunately, her power was special, so even if she was hit by the poisonous palm, it was not a big deal. The woman couldn't do anything to her for a while. The woman couldn't kill her, so she swallowed another pill and disappeared in a flash.
Lin Dan slashed in the air but did not feel panicked. He immediately turned around and blocked with his sword. As expected, the woman appeared behind her, but failed to launch a sneak attack. Instead, she slapped the Shura Sword with her palm, smiled coldly, and disappeared. No one knew where she would appear in the next moment. Her poisonous palm is difficult to deal with, and with her ghostly pace, it is like adding wings to a tiger.
Lin Dan's several slashes missed, and he was ambushed several times. Black blood spurted out of his mouth. It was obvious that he had suffered serious internal injuries, but his face showed no panic or fear. She stared at the woman's feet, then calmed down and followed her steps. The woman stepped to the Kun position, and she also stepped to the Kun position. The woman turned to the Li position, and she also turned to the Li position. Gradually, a Bagua diagram automatically appeared in her mind. Comparing it with the woman's steps, she figured out the pattern.
In fact, the woman's body movements were very simple. She just used the changes and reality of the Bagua to conceal her body shape. After figuring out the rules, she only needed to take a step, and Lin Dan could calculate where she would appear next.
After the woman disappeared again, Lin Dan suddenly turned sideways and swung the most violent knife into the air. The sharp knife energy broke through the air, but there was no target in front of it, and it would only hit a wall.
Seeing this, Bai Yan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
However, this sword attack that exhausted all of Lin Dan's strength did not miss its target. The woman appeared in front of the wall without him noticing. Seeing the sudden attack of the sword, her originally smug expression instantly turned into despair. It was too late to hide. She let out a short scream, and then her head flew high up, and then fell down with a bang. A line of blood splashed on the wall behind her, and white smoke slowly emerged, and a big hole was corroded through it. Even the woman's blood was tainted with poison, which showed how tough an opponent she was. However, it was just bad luck for her to meet Lin Dan, who was immune to all poisons.
Lin Dan didn't even look at her mutilated body and jumped straight down into the underground palace.
Bai Yan also jumped down.
Lin Dan fell into the pool of blood and stood firmly. Bai Yan waved his wide sleeves, tapped the air, jumped onto the beam, and looked at the person soaked in the pool of blood from afar.
Lin Dan inserted the Shura Knife into the bottom of the pool and let it suck blood as much as it wanted, while he sat cross-legged in the blood and practiced. Her eyes were closed, her face was peaceful, and she was still holding the newborn baby in her arms. Before entering into meditation, she did not forget to extract a trace of vitality and inject it into the baby's body to prevent him from dying. But at the same time, her vitality was slightly reduced, and she had to suffer the more fierce tearing of the death energy.
Bai Yan stood on the beam and looked at her all the time, with his hands behind his back. He seemed calm and unhurried, but in fact his eyes were shining with brilliance. Lin Dan has killed thousands of people today and is now soaked in thick blood. Can she still maintain her previous clarity and restraint? After today, will there be one more Shura in the world?
While he was thinking, He Yufei ran in with a bloody sword. She found Lin Dan sitting cross-legged in a pool of blood. She was startled at first, then showed a look of hatred, and chopped at him without thinking.
"What are you going to do?" Bai Yan jumped off the beam and pinched the tip of her sword with two fingers.
"Master, didn't you see that she was practicing magic? Not only did she watch people dying, she also killed many people. Go out and take a look, there's a river of blood outside!" He Yufei shouted angrily.
"She killed those who deserved to be killed. Besides, if she had watched them die without helping, how could you be standing here now?" Bai Yan would naturally not abandon his apprentice. While looking for Lin Dan, he had first gone to the dungeon and found that Lin Dan had turned off the poison lamp, broken the chains, and opened a vent to allow the women to recover. That's why he did not stay there for long.
With Lin Dan outside attracting firepower, the unsupervised women can naturally escape after they recover their strength. Even if they don't escape, it is safe to stay in the dungeon for the time being. Once this place is cleaned up by Lin Dan, they can still walk out openly.
He Yufei was indeed saved by Lin Dan, otherwise she would have been abused by those two beasts. She couldn't find any words to refute Bai Yan. For some reason, she just couldn't stand Lin Dan, and was even deeply afraid of her.
