The sky was filled with wind and rain, dark clouds as black as ink, obscuring the sun, and lightning flashed like dragons and snakes, illuminating the dark earth.
Lightning flashed across the sky, as if ten thousand silver snakes were weaving and dancing among the dark clouds. Each clap of thunder shook the void, a low murmur of the power of the thunder dragon.
As the amount of lightning gathering in the sky increased, the surrounding lightning became increasingly violent, and dark clouds pressed down as if to devour the entire world.
A deafening clap of thunder ripped through the sky, and a thick bolt of lightning, like a giant dragon, shot out from the dark clouds, heading straight for Lin Fan.
He summoned the Immortal Execution Sword, using blood as a catalyst to sacrifice to the sword formation.
Countless light swords surged like dragons, and Lin Fan quickly activated his hand seals. As the thunder dragon, carrying terrifying heavenly might, attacked, he then fused all the light swords into a single sword hundreds of feet long, the Immortal Execution Sword.
The sword energy was violent, soaring straight into the sky. Its terrifying ferocity was not much weaker than the Heart of Annihilation. The Immortal Slaying Sword Energy swept across, tearing through the void, and clashed fiercely with the Thunder Dragon.
Bolts of lightning struck the ground, causing the earth to smoke and turn into scorched earth.
The Zhuxian Sword unleashed its supreme power, shattering the sword dragon and tearing a rift in the sky.
The World-Destroying Heart trembled violently, bursting out with crimson light. Then, three streams of light shot out from its body, spitting out Lin Fan and the other two.
Lin Fan spat out a mouthful of blood, then gripped the Immortal Execution Sword and slashed fiercely at the heart of the world-destroying entity.
Several crimson tentacles lashed out from his heart, formed from terrifying evil power. Caught off guard, Lin Fan's hands and feet were bound by the tentacles.
"I'll kill you!" The Heart of Annihilation roared, unleashing terrifying power that attacked him relentlessly like thunder.
Lin Fan sensed the violent energy surging out of his body, raging wildly and trying to destroy his meridians and internal organs. He hurriedly circulated his spiritual power to resist it.
Upon seeing this, Chu Yunying immediately summoned the Qilin Demon-Repelling Pearl and charged towards the heart of the world-destroying entity.
The purest and most sacred power illuminates the darkness, like a sun traversing the void.
The Heart of Annihilation released boundless demonic energy, which contended with the Qilin Demon-Repelling Pearl and did not fall into a disadvantageous position.
With a thought, Lin Fan manipulated the Immortal Execution Sword to sever the tentacles, leaped above the heart of the world-destroying entity, gripped the hilt, and thrust it fiercely.
The heart of the world-destroying sword was pierced through by the blade. No defense could withstand the power of the Immortal Execution Sword. It roared in anger and condensed a blood-red beam of light to shoot out, intending to kill him.
Lin Fan leaned back, dodging the attack with a somersault, and then the Soul-Suppressing Jade appeared in his palm. He then struck the torn wound in the heart of the World Destroyer and shoved the Soul-Suppressing Jade into its body.
Buzz
An unparalleled force spread out, impacting his body and sending him flying dozens of feet before he was able to regain his footing.
Chu Yunying sensed that the power of the World-Destroying Heart was weakening, and immediately manipulated the Qilin Demon-Repelling Pearl to bombard its body.
Two holy forces purified the power within the heart of destruction, causing it to tremble violently and roar in resentment before collapsing inch by inch, exploding into countless pieces of flesh and blood that vanished.
The Qilin Demon-Repelling Pearl burst forth with dazzling light, purifying the resentment and evil power in the space.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for destroying the Heart of Annihilation. Reward: Immortal Slaughtering Array Diagram." The system hasn't finished updating yet, but that doesn't affect its ability to distribute rewards.
"Who dares to touch my pet?"
After the Heart of Annihilation exploded, a cold voice suddenly came from the sky.
Above the sky, the once tranquil and boundless blue was torn apart by a sudden phenomenon, as if the gates of heaven and earth had been violently pushed open by an invisible hand, revealing a breathtaking scene.
A vortex of spiritual energy slowly condensed from nothingness, its color deep and profound, like the brightest stars in the night sky, or like the eye of an abyss, peering into all things in the world.
The vortex was so large that it covered almost half the sky, and the spiritual energy flowing within it was so dense that it was almost tangible, causing the wind and clouds to change color and the plants and trees to be alarmed.
As the vortex accelerated its rotation, an ancient and melodious chant seemed to resound between heaven and earth—a resonance of natural laws and an awakening of the will of heaven and earth.
The thunder roared down, no longer the ordinary thunder and lightning, but like the wrath of a god. Each bolt of lightning contained the power to destroy the world, crashing down from the heavens and heading straight for the center of the vortex of spiritual energy.
Lightning and vortexes intertwined, their dazzling light illuminating the Tibetan Plateau, as if the whole world was undergoing an unprecedented baptism.
Just as the interplay of heavenly lightning and vortex reached its peak, a sudden change occurred.
Within the vortex, it was no longer a simple surge of spiritual energy, but rather the quiet infiltration of dark forces.
Accompanied by a series of mournful howls, countless blood-red bats surged out from the depths of the vortex. They were covered in blood-red wings and their eyes flashed with an eerie red light, like messengers of hell, bringing endless death and despair as they rushed towards the Tibetan Plateau.
"What's going on? Why are these monsters appearing?" The powerful figures on the Tibetan Plateau had a drastic change in expression. Although most of the blood-red bats were at the second or third level, there were too many of them—a swarm of hundreds of millions of bats.
Even if a Nascent Soul stage expert could kill 10,000 blood-red bats with a single slap, a hundred million bats charging down could keep them fighting for days and nights.
The powerful members of the Bear Clan were also completely dumbfounded, clearly not expecting a strange vortex to appear in the sky above the Tibetan Plateau, with a large number of blood-red bats surging out.
If all the crimson bats spread, the bear clan will also suffer heavy losses, and it is very likely that the three major beast clans will also be affected.
Upon seeing this, the bear clan leader rushed towards the sky, raised his crutch, and imprisoned the space, freezing all the bats in place.
Just as he was about to eliminate the blood-red bats, an invisible force descended from the sky, forcefully blasting the bear clan leader away and sending him crashing into the ground, disappearing without a trace.
The blood-red bats resumed their activity and rushed towards the Tibetan Plateau once more, as if a catastrophe was about to unfold.
These blood-red bats, each containing a strange power, caused vegetation to wither and creatures to wail wherever they went, and the entire world seemed to be shrouded in a cold and evil aura.
The powerful figures of the Central Continent sensed this unprecedented crisis and took to the air, wielding magical artifacts and unleashing their supernatural powers in an attempt to stop this catastrophe.
The sheer number and power of the crimson bat swarm far exceeded everyone's expectations; even the top experts in the cultivation world would find it difficult to withstand their onslaught.
Watching countless blood-red bats swarm down in large numbers sent chills down their spines.
Lin Fan retrieved the Soul-Suppressing Jade, let out a long roar, and drew the Dragon Roar Sword. The sword light, like a dragon, pierced the night sky and instantly killed dozens of second-tier bats.
Chu Yunying followed closely behind, her Phoenix Dance Sword dancing, its shadows flying, weaving with the swarm of bats to create a magnificent picture.
Murong Xuanqiu stood behind the formation, slowly wielding his Xuanshuang Sword. Each strike was incredibly precise, freezing the third-tier bats that attempted to break through the defenses one by one.
Lin Fan unleashed the Dragon Soul Sword Technique, and the dragon shadow roared, sweeping across with overwhelming power, turning countless bats into bloody foam.
However, after they killed a group of bats, even more blood-red bats rushed over.
"Run!" Lin Fan shouted.
Their path was blocked by a swarm of blood-red bats, so they had to flee in other directions.
Upon seeing the blood-red bat, the human powerhouses of the Ten Thousand Mountains changed their expressions drastically. Many Transcending Tribulation stage experts arrived, wanting to inquire about the three races of magical beasts.
The Tiger and Pig tribes were speechless. The problem arose in the Tibetan Plateau, the territory of the Bear tribe, and as a result, the strong members of their tribes were also affected, so they hurriedly recalled their tribesmen who were away.
"What exactly happened with Xiong Wuchang?"
The Tiger King and the Pig King looked displeased. When they saw that the Bear King was injured, their expressions changed slightly.
Several powerful cultivators at the Tribulation Transcending stage from the human race were also gathered here. Due to the sudden change in events, they also needed to confirm the situation.
"We don't know either. A large number of blood-red bats suddenly appeared on the Tibetan Plateau. They don't seem to belong to our Shiwan Mountain Range territory."
"Their aura was very strange, even different from ordinary magical beasts. I wanted to stop them, but I was injured by a terrifying force that fell from the sky." Xiong Wuchang said calmly. He was also very aggrieved. Being seriously injured before even meeting them was a disgrace.
"Could it be the Heavenly Demon Bat that made the move?" said the patriarch of Taixu Palace.
He is a powerful expert who has transcended the sixth level of cultivation. He is one of the top experts in the Tianchen Continent. He has lived for a very long time and is a terrifying figure who is like a living fossil of this lineage.
If it weren't for the unexpected events in the Ten Thousand Mountains and the distress signal he received, he probably would never have come to the Ten Thousand Mountains in his life.
"Its aura doesn't resemble that of the Heavenly Demon Bat," the Tiger King said.
It stretched out its palm, and a blood-red bat flew in its palm, but no matter how hard it tried, it was to no avail.
“I’ve investigated. These blood-red bats have no souls; they’re like puppets, slaughtering indiscriminately on the Tibetan Plateau,” the Tiger King said.
“That’s really strange. Could it be that the demonic path has reappeared?” the Pig King said.
Among the Ten Demon Lords, one of them is actually a bat. If he broke the seal, it makes perfect sense that he would create these little gadgets.
"Are you talking about the Crimson Blood Demon Lord?" the old patriarch of Taixu Palace asked in a deep voice.
“That’s right. I received intelligence that the reincarnation of the Crimson Blood Demon Lord reappeared in the Northern Region. He has awakened and fled back to the demonic path, probably waiting for an opportunity,” Tiger King said.
The demonic path has always been a formidable enemy of the Tianchen Continent. Even though demonic beasts and humans have their own grudges, they are forced to unite and fight together when faced with the arrival of the demonic path.
The conflict between monsters and humans is simply a struggle for territory and resources, but the demonic path is different; they want to turn the Tianchen Continent into ruins and a killing field.
At its peak, the demonic path shattered the alliance of monsters and humans, causing them to suffer a complete defeat. If they were to reappear on the continent, it would trigger another terrible catastrophe.
"If it really is the Crimson Blood Demon Lord, why would he make such a big fuss?" the Bear King asked, puzzled.
"Hmph, they must be here for the Emperor's legacy!" the Pig King said coldly.
If the Crimson Blood Demon Lord really returns, his desire to interfere with the Great Emperor's succession is aimed at weakening the alliance between the demon beasts and the human race, preparing for his future comeback.
Since the disappearance of the Ten Demonic Sovereigns, the Demonic Path has vanished without a trace, rarely appearing in the public eye. People have gradually almost forgotten about these terrifying individuals, with only the older generation still remembering them.
"Now that things have come to this, we have no choice but to join forces and work together to eliminate the Blood Bats," said the patriarch of Taixu Palace.
